In forex trading, the Fibonacci sequence can also be applied to market behavior to find high-probability trading setups on a wide range of timeframes. Fibonacci retracement is based on the idea that markets will retrace a predictable portion of a move, after which they will continue to move in the original direction. Fibonacci retracement is created by taking two extreme points on a chart and dividing the vertical distance by the key Fibonacci ratios. 0.0% is considered to be the start of the retracement, while 100.0% is a complete reversal to the original part of the move. Once these levels are identified, horizontal lines are drawn and used to identify possible support and resistance levels

The following is a list of key Fibonacci retracement levels to look out for:

  • Retracement level: 38.2% Fast and aggressive pullback bounce.
    Retracement level: 50% Medium pullback bounce.
    Retracement level: 61.8% Golden Number pullback bounce.
    Retracement level: 78.6% Stop-loss level to be placed, 10 PIPs.
    Extension levels: -61.8% and -27% Target area for trend continuation.
