Do Fibs really forecast levels for trade management? Can't argue with Fib extensions in this screenshot.

Cheers!

Fib is a fighting word for Big Mike....I confess to using them in some circumstances as kind of a reference but I keep it quiet around BM...he gets all wound up...

even simple fib retracements can be helpful. even though if reality continues, we should get passed this level easily.



but in all fairness, fibs are as random as trend lines

I'm not saying they can't be helpful. Just saying that you need to recognize when you are being fooled into thinking they are predictive.

Was careful to use "forecast" not "predict." But, seems like fibs levels act like metro stops for the crowd psychology to get on or off.

For this TF case, looks like our train is stopping at every watering station.
