Fibonacci retracements

[Anthonio]

What is your favorite trading strategy that involves the use of Fibonacci retracements, and how do you incorporate this technique into your trading?

saya juga merasa teknik fibonaci tidak terlalu bagus dan efektif ini karena penentuan zona fibonaci tergantung orangnya/tradernya

When trading, I always pay attention to the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, which is a strong level where trends most often resume. But here, it's important to correctly determine the trend direction and look for corrections within it.

I use Fibonacci in my HFM MT5 charts mostly as a confluence tool, not as a reason to enter by itself. The 50 and 61.8 areas become much more useful when they align with market structure and a clear trend continuation setup. Without that context, fib levels can feel too subjective from one trader to another

When trading Fibonacci retracements, it's also best not to simply enter by touching the line. Look for additional signals at the chosen level: candlestick patterns, sloping trend lines, or indicator readings. This will make the signal stronger.

I also stopped using Fibonacci as a direct entry signal after taking too many early trades. Now I only trust the 50 and 61.8 zones when they match structure, trend direction and some clear candle reaction

You should not use Fibonacci retracement tools alone on an empty chart. It works best when you also look at the market trend.

I tested this extensively on HFM, Fibonacci works better as confluence than as a standalone signal. The 50–61.8 area can be useful, but only if it lines up with trend direction, structure, and some actual price reaction. Otherwise it’s just drawing levels and hoping price respects them

used to make the same mistake, jumping in just 'cause of a fib line and getting stopped out before the trend actually turned. now i only play the 50/61.8 zones if they line up with market structure and the 200 ema. if there's no confluence, i'm not touching it, no matter how pretty it looks. it's just a tool, not a holy grail—stick to price action.

Fib makes more sense to me as an area rather than an automatic entry line in my HFM charts. If 50–61.8 lines up with the actual swing structure, previous liquidity/SR and price reacts there, it becomes interesting. Biggest issue is still anchoring it consistently, otherwise you can draw a Fib that confirms almost anything
