thanks, I wasnt sure where you drew it from...
move your fib from the most recent bottom through all the tops that preceded and check the levels. if it fits, look at the fib-internals.

so curve fit it in essence...there was a guy a while back on the Eurotrash thread that did something along those lines with 61.8, he would fit it to contain a bounce or major swing...

no idea, it's been a very long time since I peeked. so far, using this, I cannot play whole moves, because I am a chicken. I double, triple check entries until price already moved... don't know what happened to me during the break. probably I got too many antidepressants, who knows.

was he successful?

this months mid is 2878 then....

Thanks bro ... good to have that in mind. However, High is not yet in place TA wise from a daily view ...H4 confirming below 1.3105 will give some lights for the daily roll to confirm the monthly high...let see..

he wasnt around for very long, so I cant say, he did have some sort of blog, I'll have to do a search later, he was a musician, so he talked about .618 in music and related it to the markets, which was interesting, at any rate, I was never really able to understand his method, but the more I think about it, if you drag a fib, and anchor it to a bounce or swing, are you not essentially then looking at targets and extensions off that level?

on first glance, yes. but that's just the rough fib. gator always has some kind of slippage on his charts... on the way backwards you need to exclude that. you can find your way through that by looking at candle closes with respect to the levels given, so that target mostly never is the swing high/low for exactly that reason. a rough rule of thumb would be to use the second highest point following a high, or the second lowest following a low, just to give you the idea.

I can't predict pipettes, though and my tps have a buffer of some pips...
