Because if you actually, honestly, really look at every single one of those lines you will see that sometimes prices crosses it upwards, sometimes downwards, sometimes it reverses and sometimes it pokes and reverses. Just like every other line/band/area/region/indy/divergence/plod/phod/or/wor/fib/etc/etc/etc that we use. I've yet to see any chart of anything posted where this isn't true, I mean Crumbs, it's even true of vwap and it's merry bands. Holy mackerel batman.

One man's discretion is another man's science, art or skill.


Very true, it's all about perception. Deep-rooted in our belief "sys.tem".

I think all of you would agree with me if I said "Uncertainty is the name of the game", but how if i said "Pseudorandomness" is the name of the game ?? .

(maybe ..... )

Indeed. You will find the Boss-Man here has Random Line Theory well nailed to keep us all on our toes. When I think of all the players (energetic, organic and non-organic) that are involved in making a market, then how could it be otherwise, darn it.

Markets are not created by nature. Markets are the result of supply and demand; buyers and sellers. There are enough fib levels so that any turn of the market will line up with one of them. I could propose instead of fibs we use .25, .33, .5, .66. .75 etc. and we will see amazing results in hindsight.

I have seen use in the 50% "fib" (not a fib) as a strength of trend indication. Also - trendlines follow price not the other way around. They are used to indicate changes in stride - not to predict the future.

The result that most polls get when nobody knows the answer, same as the 50% shades of grey eye tests. The brain is a Fibonacci machine. Debate ends here.
