Inside Trade | Fibonacci Retracement


Recently I had given a brief background about the history of the golden mean. Its application is so vast that even the financial market has not been exempted. At present, the Fibonacci retracement is widely known for its ability to determine the support and resistance level of the current market price.

According to what I've read, it is based on the idea that the market will retrace a predictable portion of a move, after which it will then proceed with the original trend.

It may be drawn by first selecting it on the insert section of the tool bar of the trading platform. A separate section for the Fibonacci may be found there in which the retracement is located. After clicking the retracement, you must first identify two extreme point which will be used to draw the line.

Draw the retracement from the high and low point of the trend and after drawing the retracement successfully, six lines will appear each with its corresponding percentage. The new support and resistance level are usually found near the 61.8, 50.0, and 38.2 levels.
