Fibonacci Strategy

Fibonacci Strategy

The Fibonacci strategy is an old strategy that helps traders to make informed trade decisions. This strategy works best when the market is trending. We have retracement levels such as 38%, 50%, and 68.1% and the extension levels such as 121%, 138.2%, and 161.8%.

When the Fibonacci retracement goes beyond 100% level, it becomes an extension and this implies a new trend is being formed.

Leonardo De Pisa, a famous mathematician, introduced the Fibonacci ratios and they are 0.382, 0.50, 0.786, 0.886, 1.27, 1.41, 1.618, 2.0, 2.24, 2.618, 3.14, and 3.618.

Traders apply these levels to their charts right from the start of a trend to the end in order to identify potential support and resistance levels.

Basically, the application of Fibonacci levels to the trading chart is important most especially where Moving Averages and trendlines meet or converge (price is normally expected to bounce or drop at this point).

The strategy is used by traders to identify key support and resistance levels. In the image below, buying at Fibonacci level 50% can be a good decision with the stop-loss placed few pips below 61.8%.

In the image below, traders can sell at level 38.2% with stop-loss placed few pips above 50% Fibonacci level.

 

The development of candlestick reversal patterns at certain Fibonacci levels also give traders some level of confidence when it comes to the use of the Fibonacci strategy.

How Best To Draw Fibonacci Indicator on the MT4 Chart:

To draw Fibonacci indicator on a chart in a downtrend price movement, the indicator grid is dragged from the top (the high of the trend) to the bottom (the low of the trend) on the largest trend on the chart.

This is dragged from the tip of the wick at the highest candle of the trend, to the lowest tip of the wick of the lowest candle on the trend.

 

To draw Fibonacci indicator on a chart in an uptrend price movement, the indicator grid is dragged from the bottom (the low of the trend) to the top (the high of the trend) on the largest rend on the chart.

This is dragged from the tip of the wick at the lowest candle of the trend, to the highest tip of the wick of the highest candle on the trend.

 

Fibonacci and Elliott Wave:

Extension and retracement of price trend using Fibonacci can be combined with Elliott wave strategy to make good trading decisions. Fibonacci retracements at key levels (38.2%, 50% and 61.6%) tends to take price to extension levels (121.4%, 138.2% and 161.8%).

 

 

Fibonacci and Harmonic Pattern:

Retracement and extension of price trend using Fibonacci can be combined with Harmonic Patterns to make good trading decisions. Retracements at key levels (38.2%, 50%, and 61.6%) tend to take price to extension levels (121.4%, 138.2%, and 161.8%). Examples of harmonic patterns are Bat, Gartley, Crab, Butterfly, Shark, and Cypher.

How To Use The Fibonacci Strategy:

The best use of this strategy is by drawing the Fibonacci grid on the largest trend in the higher time frame. Example, weekly or daily time frame). Key support and resistance levels are then identified on the chart.

However, the same procedure is now repeated for lower time frames (for example 15 minute or 1hour time frame). Their key Fibonacci levels are also identified. Critical levels are formed at certain points where higher time frame key level aligns with lower time frame level.

The Weekly or Daily Fibonacci levels will also serve as major turning points for the 15 minute and 1-hour time frame Fibonacci levels during the trading period.

Technically, Fibonacci key level alignment with other indicators (for example, 50EMA, or 200 EMA) or trendlines helps traders to know when the price will bounce or fall.

Traders buy on a retracement at the Fibonacci support level when the price is going up. While they sell on a retracement at the Fibonacci resistance level when the price is falling.

Fibonacci key levels can be used with support and resistance levels to make good trade decisions.

 

How To Take Enter Buy Or Sell Trades Using The Fibonacci Strategy:

Buy or sell at Fibonacci retracement level 38.2%, 50% or 61.8%. For retracement in an uptrend, traders may buy at 38.2% and stop-loss may be placed few pips below 50% level. Alternatively, traders may buy at 50% retracement level with stop-loss placed a few pips below 61.8%.

For retracement in a downtrend, traders may sell at 38.2% and stop-loss may be placed few pips above 50% level. Alternatively, traders may sell at 50% retracement level with stop-loss placed a few pips above 61.8%.

In a strong trend, retracement usual occur at the 38.% level. In a weak trend, price normally retraces at the 61.2% and 76.4% levels. A complete retracement of 100% or more will imply that the trend is over.

 

How To Take Profit Using The Fibonacci Strategy:

Profit can be taken at the following extension levels: 121%, 138.2%, and 161.8%. These points also form good exit points for trades.
