What Fibonacci Retracements Are? Part 2
Retracements:
Short term price corrections during an overall larger either upward trend or downward trend.
Retracements are price corrections and temporary price reversals that do not indicate a change in the direction of the larger trend.
These retracements can be used for short term trading ( scalping or day trading ... or longer time frames).
The main benefit of retracements are: you can enter a trade at a better price, just before the continuation of the original move.
Why retracements occur?
When more traders jump on a trade, some traders will take profit & close there trades causing a retracement to happen, or correction of major trend.
Retracement Rules:
1) Buy pullbacks in an uptrend
2) Sell pullbacks in an downtrend
*Example on 4 hour chart is a bearish trade with a retracement back into the golden zone of 38.2% to 61.50% which most reversals occur in, back into the major trend on that time frame. My advice is use Fibonacci indicator on 1 hour or higher to reduce the price action noise.
