What Exactly are Fibonacci Levels?
Have you ever heard about the Fibonacci sequence? It’s a sequence, in which each number is the sum of the two preceding ones.
It includes integers 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34…
There is something very special about that Fibonacci sequence. The ratio achieved by dividing one of these numbers by its successive number is called golden ratio.
That proportion can be noticed in various areas like mathematics, nature, and… financial markets.
It’s a bit like a mystery or magic, but it’s proven to work!
How to Use Fibonacci Retracements in Trading for Your Benefit?
The Fibonacci ratios precisely are the following: 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, and 100%. These ratios prove the mathematical relationship between the number sequences and are very important to traders.
First, one needs to identify the high and low price points on the chart – luckily the Auto Fibonacci Retracement does the job automatically. The retracement is defined by taking these extreme points and drawing the vertical distance.
When we have Fibonacci retracement plotted on the chart as horizontal lines, then we can consider these levels as support and resistance.
These levels often are areas at which a market price reverses its current position or trend.
Take a look at examples of bullish and bearish retracements below:
Long trade signal
A long trade opportunity occurs when there is a general uptrend and the price has made a pullback. A trader should watch closely a price action near horizontal lines, especially at 38.2% and 61.8% levels.
If the price clearly rejects a level (for example: by a bullish pin bar), then it is time to open a buy trade.
Place your stop loss a few pips below a line that triggered your trade. Take profit can be taken at higher horizontal lines.
Even if your stop loss gets hit from time to time, that strategy gives an awesome risk-to-reward ratio.
Short trade signal
A short trade opportunity occurs when there is a general downtrend and the price has made a pullback. A trader should watch closely a price action near horizontal lines, especially at 38.2% and 61.8% levels.
Open a sell trade when you notice a level rejection by a bearish price action pattern.
Place your stop loss a few pips above a line that triggered your trade. Take profit can be taken at lower horizontal lines.
As we already said, don’t worry if your stop loss gets hit from time to time, that strategy gives a great risk-to-reward ratio anyway.
Additional notes
Price often retraces to 38.2% or 50% level, but the 61.8% is most anticipated as it offers massive pullback. Perfect exit points are at 78.6% or 100% level.
