Hi GT, Looking at your chart, I can't help wondering how you got your Fib there in the first place. I tend to see the bigger moves better, so this probably doesn't help - but this is my GJ chart. I don't like GJ that much as it always seems to ...

According to Skunny, I think it is bad to go way past 161.8 — Hi Piphitman, If we are taking these Fibs seriously, then yes it is a problem if they go way past the 161.8 without there being an obvious follow on Fib walk. Remember that they are ...

False signals - I have to disagree with your definition — Hi Charlie, I have to disagree, in my book a signal is false for trading purposes (or the Fib was drawn in the wrong place) if the price penetrates one Fib etreme (0% or 100%) by a few ...

Ok, so why did you start the Gann line at the 23.6% ? — Hi Islander, Are these Gann lines drawn beofre or after the 138 is hit. If before, that is great - but why did it start at the 23.6% ? Thanks, Ian

To resolve confusion - just edit post 1 — Hi Bo, isn't it always possible for the thread starter to edit their 1st post? If so, just add a note to say what the alternate names are for those Fibs you have re-named. Ian

Thanks for this Bo and Bruce, I too was drawing the Intraday just from high to low in each calendar day and only starting it in the previous day if there was no significant swing low in that day. So the correct way is to re-draw it after it has hit ...

Fib extensions not to the pip? — Hi Bo, I had thought from what both Skunny and you had written in his thread that at least for the majors, fib extensions could be relied upon to the pip (or very close - say 5 pips). And that if an extension ...

NonLag ZigZag — Guys, The reason Skunny says not to trade with it, is that it repaints itself. So it is always correct in hindsight, but like all indicators it can't predict the future. However it can help you identify peaks/troughs of over a ...
