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 ...

Congratulations Tiki, It is good to see that you know an A trade before it takes off! I was also shorting GJ but a little earlier but was undercapitalised for the true SL required. Its really annoying that it got to within 1 pip of my TP before ...

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 ...

I think Skunny said at 100% or 0% — I think that Skunny has only ever said to put the sL at the postion where you would open a trade in the oposite direction. So if you expect the FX pair to respect the Fib to the pip, then you would enter (or ...

I agree - unfortunately — I agree, that is what makes it so difficult to get a handle on.I think that the really crucial ting is being able to determine the next (i.e. current) Fib range when the 138 or -38 is hit on the current (now old) one.
