1. The basics of Fibonacci retracement and problems traders face
Fibonacci retracement is a popular way to identify potential pullback or reversal signals within a trend through the common key levels below:
- 38.2% – minor pullback
- 50% – neutral correction
- 61.8% – ideal pullback level
- 78.6% – deep retracement, often mistaken for a reversal
But… Do you ever hesitate where to draw the fib levels from? (A wrong swing = wrong levels)
Or feel confused between a pullback and a reversal, which may lead to premature entries or frustrating stop-outs?
To overcome this, here are 2 practical setups you can rely on:
2. Two practical setups you can apply
🔹 Setup 1: Pullback Entry in Trend
In this setup, you focus on drawing the Fibonacci retracement from the lowest swing low to the recent swing high in an uptrend (or the highest swing high to the recent swing low in a downtrend).
To find swing points, you can refer to Zigzag Swing Pro or Fibonacci Mystery from ninZa.co.
After getting swings and Fibonacci levels on the chart, you start looking for your entry around the 50% - 61.8% levels.
Also, you can combine this with some extra confirmations for better entries:
- Candlestick patterns: Pin Bar, Engulfing, etc
- Price structure: Higher highs and higher lows, lower highs and lower lows. so on.
🔹 Setup 2: Reversal Entry
When price pulls back deeply toward the 78.6% level, it often signals a potential reversal zone.
At this point, you can increase confidence by combining other factors, such as divergence or overbought/oversold conditions, using RSI, MACD, and more.
Thanks to advanced algorithms, Fibonacci Mystery helps you detect key swing highs and lows, offering reliable and high-value reversal signals.
3. Why do we need Fibonacci retracement?
Because Fibonacci retracement gives you a technical basis to define a reasonable price zone — for both pullbacks and reversals — instead of guessing.
As Mark Douglas once said:
“Trading is not about being right. It’s about making the right decision.”
Yes, you can draw Fibonacci manually, but it will be difficult to identify swing points, which can cause missed entry opportunities.
We have a solution for this, the Fibonacci Mystery indicator:
- Automatically determines swing points
- Displays key fib zones clearly
- Intuitive, easy-to-use interface
- Ideal for pullback & reversal trading
