#Fibonacci Retracement How i use it ?
Thread//
1
Fibonacci Retracement is a technical analysis tool that i use to locate areas/levels of support & resistance
It is based on the Fibonacci sequence ratios introduced by Leonardo Fibonacci
2//
Measure the rise of price from swing low to swing high (depends on the time frame in use)
This level will give the support levels AND the potential resistances levels once price continue higher
3//
Let's take $FSLY Daily for example
White Arrow : Swing high
Yellow Arrow : Swing low
As you can see it gives us support levels & future potential resistance levels
4//
I often add also the 1 HR chart levels
White Arrow : Swing high
Yellow Arrow : Swing low
As you can see price touches all and re tests all the levels from the yellow arrow to the blue arrow which is the 1.272 EXTENSION of this move
5//
Here is the Daily & 1 HR side by side
So you can follow potential pull back & potential upwards resistances during hours
6//
**To see potential down side continuation levels of resistance pull the Fibonacci from Swing high to Swing low
$DPZ Daily example
price is now @ the 1.272 EXTENTION level of the down trend
7//
Use this tool on different time frames BUT no matter if you trade the 1/5/15/60/240 min charts
ALWAYS have your Daily levels
8//
For me the most important levels are 0.382 /0.618 (marked in yellow ) /1.272 / 1.618
9//
with that Being said
Fibonacci tools has limitations
It may give an estimated entry level but cannot
indicate an exact entry point (study Candle reversal patterns)
It also doesn’t guarantee that prices will move as the retracements predicts.
10//
If you #follow my chart you can see i use the Fibonacci to determine potential levels to enter a trade, SL & TP targets (usually to the point )
with no other indicators
Hope this helps
Feel free to comment / ask questions

Here an example about SPY 60 min chart from September
Check time each picture stamped
No indicators ... just following candle stick pattern
2. $SPY 60 min chart
Bull flag & target price identified in advanced
check time stamped pictures
Again ... Just by knowing candle stick patterns & Fibonacci levels
Did you ever wonder what is the difference between winners and losers in the long term? Like most people you probably think the answer is education. Then, you read a few more books, some articles and thought that was it. Now you’re the man. Well… guess what? It’s not that
1. Never get emotionally attached
“get to know your instrument”, understand how it reacts to news, which are the technical indicators that work
However,this may lead to some sort of feeling of connection and emotional attachment
That is a bad thing
#TRADINGTIPS
Rule #1 in #trading : Risk Management
"Every moment in the market is unique " & no one knows what is going to happen next
I Pre define the amount of $ I’m willing to LOSE
This amount is set FOR ALL TRADES i take
Ex. : I am willing to lose 100$ on every trade i take so i will enter a trade with the AMOUNT of #shares that fits to this risk
Example : $AMZN can be 100 shares , $AMC can be 500 shares
**2/4**
SL Price / Entry Price=SL Percentage ->
100/SL Percentage -> gives you the amount in $ -> Amount in $/Entry price = numbers of shares i buy
