Fibonacci Retracement
BTCUSD Buy (to 20k) and exaclty how we enter tradesThis tutorial explains how we take trade entries, its as simple as this!
We use a complete trading system that governs every aspect of our trading, from entry to exit. We put high emphasis on position sizing and we only use the Fibonacci retracement to enter trades
How to Objectively place Fibonacci RetracementsI've seen people place retracements in interesting ways and just want to show an objective way to place your retracements.
You need a top, a bottom, and a corrective wave or reversal that you are analyzing.
Now, fibs are everywhere and you can place them however works best for you and there is no ONE way,
but this is for people who want to approach learning fib in the most objective way possible.
I believe it is smart to have strict rules in your trading system and rules that align with what most pros are used to following.
Good luck,

Methods 2: Retracement Levels 1This is the first installment in my second section on Methods I use for finding Support and Resistance. I use a live trade example on FOREXCOM:EURAUD to show how the simple 50% Fibonacci level was all that was needed to find where the price would inflect. While I am aware and have studied the Fibonacci levels I find that just drawing 50% levels is all I need to find good trade entries and targets. Hope all can learn from my small mistake and look forward to sharing more!
The script I wrote for to quickly identify these 50% levels are in the Link below.
Fibonacci Retrace EducationI've had a few of you guys asking me about how I determine my corrective/reversal points per fib, and since I had a great trader teach me the ropes on how fib moves, I thought I would do the same.
Follow each colored arrow to its respective fib. These are typical fib patterns to see on retraces.
The same happens in bear markets.
Also, you will need to apply these rules to the respective range.
None of this is guaranteed to happen also.
Studying fib will quickly teach you that there's fibs within fibs, so that's why you really have to measure each level and measure all ranges.
This becomes easier through time and as you apply it to your trading. Best practice is to just study retraces.
Fib IMO works best with an oscillator of choice, and an advanced level of understanding volume within price action.
Lastly, understand -- not even fib is perfect and I did not list every typical scenario that fib retraces show.
These are most of them though.
If you understand the power of the 618 and the 382 (618 inverse), then you're well on your way.
*not an indication to buy or sell*
*use at your own risk*

Goodluck.

The Trend is Your Friend: Basic Elliott Waves ExplainedIn this post, I'll be providing an in-depth explanation on Elliott Waves, specifically Impulse Waves and Corrective Waves.
I personally use Elliott Waves a lot, and as it seems like the majority of my followers are beginner traders unfamiliar with the concept of waves, I decided to do an educational post on it.
The concept of Elliott Wave Counts are extremely technical and advanced, so in this post, I'll only be going over the two most common waves: The Impulse and Corrective Waves
Elliott Waves Background Information
The Elliott Wave Theory was named after Ralph Nelson Elliott, who concluded that the movement of assets could be predicted by observing and identifying a repetitive pattern of waves. He was able to identify specific characteristics of wave patterns, making detailed predictions based on the patterns.
Very simply put, the direction of a trend unfolds in 5 waves (impulse waves) and any correction against the trend takes place in 3 waves (corrective waves). The 5 impulse waves are labelled ‘12345’, and the corrective waves are labelled ‘abc’.
*A bear market would show a downward trend, indicating that we’d see five waves down, and three waves up.
Smaller patterns can be identified within bigger patterns. As demonstrated in the diagram above, we can see that the impulse and corrective waves in green, are combined to form a larger wave in black, which is also part of a larger wave in red.
In technical terms, this is the classification of wave degrees. On Tradingview, the smallest to largest, the degree goes as follows: Miniscule, Submicro, Micro, Subminuette, Minuette, Minute, Minor, Intermediate, Primary, Cycle, Supercycle, Grand Supercycle, Submillennium, Millennium, Supermillennium.
The idea of using smaller patterns fit into bigger patterns, can be coupled with the Fibonacci relationship of the waves, offering insight on optimal levels of trade opportunities, and calculations of risk reward ratios (RRR).
What are Fibonacci levels?
Simply put, Fibonacci levels are a series of numbers discovered by Leonardo Fibonacci, in which a golden ratio (1.681) is derived by dividing a Fibonacci number with another previous Fibonacci number.
The Golden Ratio derived through the Fibonacci can be found in predictable patterns in nature from atoms to huge stars in the sky, as nature uses this ratio to maintain balance. Such ratios are very commonly found in the financial markets as well.
Elliott Impulse Waves (12345)
The Elliott Impulse Wave, which unfolds in 5 waves, has a few guidelines in terms of the rules that must be kept, and references to the Fibonacci ratio.
- An Impulse Wave can be subdivided into 5 waves (For instance, the black wave in the diagram is subdivided into smaller green waves)
- Wave 1, 3, and 5 are impulsive.
- Wave 2 cannot retrace more than the beginning of wave 1
- Wave 3 cannot be the shortest wave of the three impulse waves
- Wave 4 cannot retrace below the peak of wave 1
- Wave 5 needs to end with a momentum divergence
- In terms of Fibonacci ratios, there is not set answer, but there are some references we need to keep in mind:
- Wave 2 is 0.5, 0.618, 0.764, 0.854 of Wave 1
- Wave 3 is 1.618, 2, 2.618, or 3.236 of Wave 1-2
- Wave 4 is 0.146, 0.236, or 0.382 of Wave 3, but no more than 0.5
- Wave 5 can be the inverse 1.23611.618 retracement of wave 4, or 0.618 of wave 1-3, or equal to wave 1.
Elliott Corrective Waves (ABC)
When referring to corrective waves, this can include the use of other wave counts. In this post, we’ll be specifically looking at a corrective count also known as the Zigzag.
- A Zigzag is a corrective 3 waves structure that is counted as ABC
- Subdivision of Wave A and C comes in 5 waves
- A Zigzag is a 5-3-5 structure (In the diagram above, we can see the black Zigzag waves, which consist of a 5-3-5 wave count in green)
- Wave B is 0.5, 0.618. 0.764, or 0.854 of wave A
- Wave C is 0.618, 1, or 1.236 of wave A
- If wave C is 1.618 of wave A, it can either be a 3 or 5 waves count.
Application
We can take a look at Bitcoin’s weekly chart as an example of how Elliott Waves work. While I haven’t included the specific counts for simplicity sake, it provides a good idea of how the market moves.
Overall, we can clearly see that the trend is bullish. However, prices don’t always shoot straight up without stopping. It breaks out, corrects slightly, and breaks out again. The repetition of impulse waves, and smaller corrective waves, is what completes the uptrend.
This is why ‘buying the dip’ is a smart move during a bull market. Corrections are inevitable even in the most bullish market, and taking into consideration the fact that the trend is your friend, such corrections would merely be a buying opportunity.
Almost all assets take one step back for two steps forward. This is how the market works according to the Elliott Wave Theory.
Limitations
Elliott Waves have a critical weakness: it’s extremely subjective. Even while looking at the same chart, traders can count different waves, as it’s difficult to pinpoint the beginning or end of a wave. As with many other tools in predicting the market, it seems that the most common case is that traders are almost 100% accurate, or completely wrong.
As such, I personally like to use this tool merely as a reference in weighing out probable scenarios, rather than solely relying on my rather subjective wave count.
Final Remarks
I tried to dissect the basics of the Elliott Wave theory in this post. The concept itself is extremely advanced, and the explanation I provided above is merely the tip of the iceberg. Understanding Elliott Waves, while it’s not a silver bullet in trading, can help traders understand the overall trend, identify probable scenarios, and calculate optimal risk reward ratios based on wave targets.

Trendlines, Volume and FibonacciTrendlines are the simplest chart pattern you can find, but they are some of the most widely used, and for good reason.
They highlight a price trend going up, down, or sideways. Which therefore will be used for further analysis and other chart patterns, but what many people don't know are the specifics of trendlines. Firstly, widely-touched trendlines (about a month apart) perform much better than closely-touched trendlines. Trendlines with more touches also perform better than those with fewer. Furthermore, the longer the trendline the better the performance. However, steeper trendlines don't cut - performance usually lacks when trendlines get steeper.
The Gold monthly chart shows a downward channel highlighted by blue trendlines. This channel isn't the best since the breakout doesn't kick in for a couple of years, however, it would have been great for a few swing trades.
Highlighted by the blue notes are regions of high volume at valleys and peaks. Heavy volume at peaks and volumes are good indicators of support and resistance. Represented by the white horizontal lines. However, one important thing to note is that horizontal consolidation regions provide better support and resistance then peaks and valleys.
The HCR is presented by the yellow note and the highest blue note in the chart.
Also shown is the Fibonacci retracement. The Fibonacci retracements of 38%,50%, and 62% are good regions for support and resistance. A stop placement at 67% protects trades 66% of the time.

Fibonacci WavesAn idea regarding Fibonacci
I believe the price within the arcs of the fibonacci circle move in waves
With 1.618 being a bearish wave in this case, with a bullish transition to another ring.
There seems to be a clear relationship between 1.618 and .618 its probably simple for someone more knowledgeable in this field which I am still learning.
Explains on chart.
If anyone knows more about this comment please.
