How To Draw Fibonacci Retracement and Extension

To make it crystal clear, I will take example of current status at EUR/USD currency pair (chart screenshot below).

After the tool selection of the platform, points number 1 and 2 are joined with a line. This will generate the line, as shown on the chart below, which is used to determine places for position opening.

As you can see, Fibonacci retracements and extensions can easily become pain-in-the-butt if you are not sure which is drawn how and in-what-way. Once they are mixed up, it takes time to learn the difference and get back on the right tracks, thus it is utterly important to...Read more
