GreatNorth replied Feb 12, 2015USDJPY a 5 Minute chart and a 1 Hour Chart. Obviously with the 5 M chart there is more noise. The 1Hour chart looks, in my opinion, to be following the Benchmark Fibs very accurately. It's all in the charts, don't take my word for it. It works for ...

GreatNorth replied Feb 12, 2015Here is AUDUSD. A 5 Minute Chart! It's just clear how it respects the WM/Reuthers Benchmark Fibs. You can see how .76481 provided Major Support and from which is bounced to where we are now.

GreatNorth replied Feb 12, 2015For EURUSD they haven't changed since 1995. For GBPUSD, even earlier. For USDCAD, before the 90s. For the other Euro Pairs, since 2000.

GreatNorth replied Feb 12, 2015Yes, that's right. You just play the bounces. Fibs within Fibs are minors. The main ones are the ones that come from 1.115/1.348 Here is the updated chart---you can see how it behaved at the 61.8 and 38.2 Levels. At times it overshot the levels only ...

GreatNorth replied Feb 12, 2015The Benchmarks for the Fibs I've provided have been valid for more than a decade. They are the ones that you construct your fibs with. They haven't changed since then and so you won't need me to provide updates. You already have the information!

GreatNorth replied Feb 12, 2015Exactly! We don't have them--unless you can afford to pay hundreds of dollars for the feed. Most universities have the database where you can get them if you are a student. I had a friend get them for me from university. Even then you have to learn ...

GreatNorth replied Feb 11, 2015I don't know what you refer to when you say "handle" in regards to trading and I don't know how you gotten 1.6000 on your chart. Is it an arbritary level or one that you got through another system? In any case, this thread is not about what you've ...

GreatNorth replied Feb 11, 2015EURUSD One minute chart. Rejection at 85.4% Now we are seeing support at the 38.2% ratio. One chart with no information. The second with information. Now you can see. Study the charts, not the conversation.

GreatNorth replied Feb 11, 2015I use the first Benchmark for the zero on the Fib and then the first swing high or low for the 100. For example, on the EURUSD the first Benchmark was 1.115. The swing was 1.348. Draw a fib with those numbers and study the charts.

GreatNorth replied Feb 11, 2015I wouldn't draw the Fibs the way you have, I've included how I would draw them. You can see how the 61.8 level at 136.345 has rejected the price on the daily--as it has done before as per the chart. I don't trade the EURJPY, but a rejection at this ...

GreatNorth replied Feb 11, 2015It is true that it says that, but the 50% uses a different mathematical formula then the one that is used for the other ratios. Because it uses a different formula, it is not a true fibonacci ratio. It is a derivative. It would skew the charts in a ...
