    Fibonacci Retracements

    sunnyskies i guess thats why edwards and magee write books and probably do not trade the answer is as simple as it hard, but since it is what the market does that interests you and not the theory - watch how the markets react around theses levels and you will be able to answer your own...

    Fibonacci Retracements

    Fibonacci Retracements

    fib retracement and extensions are real important the 233 and 610 i am not too sure about, but sometimes traders find that a number near a fib number is the right level for him by experience - so 610 may just happen to relate to 618 - or it may of course relate to something i have personally...

    Lookin to get started with ES/NQ's

    def - no one is going to claim that TWS is better than TT or GL but that does not mean that TWS is not more than adequate for the average trader's type of trading, and IBs openess with the API is a 5 star plus point

    Lookin to get started with ES/NQ's
