WE WILL BE USING FIBONACCI RATIOS A LOT IN OUR TRADING SO YOU BETTER LEARN TO LOVE IT LIKE YOUR FAVOURITE PIZZA.
Fibonacci is a huge subject and there are many different Fibonacci studies with weird-sounding names but we’re going to stick to two: retracement and extension.
The ratios arise from the following number series: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144…
This series of numbers is derived by starting with 0 followed by 1 and then adding 0 + 1 to get 1, the third number. Then, adding the second and third number (1 + 1) to get 2, the fourth number, and so on.
After the first few numbers in the sequence, if you measure the ratio of any number to the succeeding higher number, you get .618. For example, 34 divided by 55 equals .618.
SOUNDS COMPLICATED RIGHT? So lets use some code to calculate it on the chart for us. The indicators will automatically show the levels & long short signals at the bottom.
