Setup & Tool
- Fibonacci Retracement: Levels 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%
- Timeframe: H1–D1 for reliable trend phases
- Confirmation: Candlestick patterns (Pin Bar, Engulfing)
Entry
- Draw the tool from swing low to swing high (uptrend) or the opposite for a downtrend.
- Long: Price tests 50% or 61.8% level and forms a bullish engulfing or hammer candle.
- Short: Analogous at retracement levels in a downtrend.
Exit
- Stop-Loss: 5 pips beyond the next Fibonacci level.
- Take-Profit: 100% level (swing high/low) or extensions (127.2%, 161.8%).
Risk Management
- Only take trades with confluence confirmation (e.g. trendline or MA50 alignment).
- Max. 1.5% risk per trade.

- Price movement: Uptrend (bars 0–49), pullback (50–99), continuation of the trend (100–149).
- Fibonacci levels (between swing low at ~100 and swing high at ~110):
- Fib 38.2% (~103.82)
- Fib 50% (~105.00)
- Fib 61.8% (~106.18)

This example helps you spot pullbacks at key levels and wait for candlestick confirmations (e.g. hammer, engulfing). Place your stop-loss 5 pips beyond the next Fib level and your take-profit at the swing high or Fibonacci extensions (127.2%, 161.8%).
