no man, this is the last fibo on the daily. u need to chose the most effective one. chose the trend with the black candles and good volume...
choosing the trend is 99% of the job

for my USDJPY trades, i hope to be able to close the two open shorts today or next week at 91.30 for a total loss of -290 for both.
this will break my month to a +1316-290= +1026 similar to last month

i will post my statement once i close the trade
Why not start a thread? I took ya off ignore..

u mean :

look for a long black daily candle with heavy volume and follow the retrace back to the range of that black candle ..100% at the open and 0% at the close ...?

IF today's candle closes like this .. is this how u would fibo ?

the candle doesnt need to be a giant candle, but if u chose a trend u need to chose full candles at the middle of the trend. if u see a full bear trend followed by another trend with long wicks relatively and then another 3rd full bear candle following them, u cant say its a trend because the candle with wicks ruined the flow of the price.

why ?
because they are random and depend on luck
there is nothing scientifically natural about them just like trendlines, pitchfork, head and shoulders bla bla bla
are we drawing or trading
