Tips for MT4: Putting price levels besides the Fibs


This is a simple tip for MT4 users.

Before:

The Fibonacci tools are wonder ful and essential for trading but after plotting them on the chart, price levels corresponding to the Fib levels are not displayed. For illustration, see ”50%’ retracement level on chart. To get the precise reading, you may have to use the crosshair function.

After:

By going to ‘Fibo properties’ and adding ‘=%$’ to the description cell for each fib level, you can see the price level displayed beside the fib level like ’23.6=1.32038′.

Fibs in motion for Euro


Fibonacci ratios are remarkable when applied to FX trading. The recent consolidation of EURUSD on its intraday 1- and 4- hour charts display its tendency to follow fibs.

Captured on the 4-hour charts, we can see the following:

  • Point C is the 76.4% retracement of A-B
  • Point E is the 76.4% retracement of C-D
  • Point F is the 76.4% retracement of D-E
  • Point G is not an established turning point on the 4-hour chart (although it may be on the 1-hour). It is however at the 61.8% retracement of E-F.

EURUSD in consolidation pattern


The Euro has a consolidation pattern that may hint of a continuation move. We see a support (A) above the 50% fibonacci retracement level and the trading in the past 24 hours show indecisiveness. In order to move out of the current triangle, Bulls have to clear the common resistance trendline (1) followed by the extreme resistance (2).

Equidistant channel on EURUSD


EUR support and resistance still valid

EUR support and resistance still valid

Whether last night’s news was really a surprise is questionable but we find that the market or more importantly the charts contain a lot more predictive value.

A low-high (March) fib measurement of the EUR on the daily chart will show that yesterday’s trading low for the was really a 23.6% retracement support. This was also confluence of an equidistant channel that could be drawn using points which were already available over the past few days.

A 170 pip rally brought the EUR to the top of the channel and touching the resistance nicely. It really isn’t a surprise. Its a bet of 30 pip stop versus a 170 pip target.

What’s more, until the channel is violated conclusively, it is still valid.

FX market at a nexus now; 38.2 Fib resistance for USDJPY


usdjpy at resistance 38.2 fibThings may be falling into place for a key decision to be made. We got the USDJPY at a 38.2 retracement (106.67) of the weekly high-low which is likely to act as a strong resistance.

In the meantime, EURUSD is supported by the 61.8 retracement (1.5566) of the daily high-low while gold is also likely to have strong support at USD 886.

Support for GBPUSD


There is a confluence of supports here at this moment for the Cable. Besides a throwback to the previous resistance trendline, there is an addition of 55ma on the 4-hour chart as well as monthly and weekly pivot M2. If the 1.9600 to 2.0024 move were to qualify as a bullish wave1, the current down (potential wave2) may retrace to 1.9762 region to make a 61.8% retracement.
