Without further ado, let’s jump in!
What are Fibonacci Retracement levels?
The retracement levels are horizontal lines that indicate areas where the price could stall or reverse.
These horizontal levels can act as potential support or resistance levels.
They are based on Fibonacci numbers. Each level is associated with a percentage which means how much of a prior move the price has retraced.
The retracement levels are 23.6%, 38.2%, 61.8%, and 78.6%.
While 50% is not a pure Fibonacci ratio, it is still used as a support and resistance. This is because people regard it as an important level.
The price won’t always bounce from these levels. They should be looked at as areas of interest. Hence, the Fibonacci retracement should be used as a confirmation tool.
Significance of Fibonacci Retracement levels
Different traders use this tool differently but the most common usage is as follows:
Place entry orders
Determine stop-loss levels
Set price targets
For example, A stock may be in an uptrend. After a move up, it retraces to the 61.8% level. Then, it starts to go up again. Since the bounce occurred at a retracement level during an uptrend, long positions can be initiated with an optimal stop loss.
Finding Fibonacci Retracement levels
In order to find the retracement levels, you have to identify the recent significant swing high and swing low and then plot the Fibonacci accordingly.
For uptrend: First, select the swing low and then the swing high.
For downtrend: First, select the swing high and then the swing low.
Exhibit: Fibonacci retracement in an uptrend
Exhibit: Fibonacci retracement in a downtrend
How to use the retracement levels?
If the price is approaching a Fibonacci level, you should look out for the following things at the point of interaction or in the vicinity of the level.
Reversal candlestick patterns
Rising volumes
Moving average
RSI divergence
Previous support/resistance level
Conclusion:
Adding Fibonacci analysis with other common methods of technical analysis can be useful for adding confluence to a trade.

LT getting ready for a big move up?LT gave a good breakout of the trendline & is now on its way back down to retest the trendline. The ideal place to buy will be between 1585-1600 as it is also the retracement into the fib golden zone of its last move up. the recent import duty cuts on raw materials like Iron & levy of export duty on steel products should also be of benefit to the stock.

McDowell Long opportunityNSE:MCDOWELL_N
Stock -> United Spirits (McDowell)
TimeFrame -> Weekly
Hello all!
United Spirits broke out of the symmetrical triangle pattern on 27 September 2021. The stock since then has been consolidating ever since thus forming a flag and pole pattern and has now finally come to retest the triangle it broke out of. It makes for a good opportunity to go long.
The perfect entry would be after the breakout of the flag pattern. The stock is also nearing its "Golden zone" (between 50%-61.8% Fibonacci retracement) . Thus accumulation in small quantities can also be done at this point.
The analysis would become invalid if the flag pattern is broken on the downside.
*NOT A CALL*

Hindustan Unilever long opportunityNSE:HINDUNILVR
Stock -> Hindustan Unilever
TimeFrame -> Weekly
Hello all!
Hindustan Unilever has corrected about 40% from its highs in September 2021. The stock has been in a downtrend since then and has been taking stiff resistance from trendline 1. It approached its strong support band of 1850-2000 and took a strong bounce from there with good volumes and also broke trendline 1. The retest of the trendline has been done and its followed by a bullish candle. This thus makes for a good opportunity to go long.
Apart from the price action, the stock also seems to be taking support from its 200 weekly EMA. Also the bounce has come from the 50% fib level which further strengthens the conviction on going long.

Is Netflix headed towards 120?This analysis is on Netlifx ($NFLX) which made a ATH of around 700 and now is present trading at 190 levels. Everything happened so fast, in a matter of just under a month of trading, that many investors lost big money. So what was the crucial level? And where were the supports? Why didnt the support work? Did Earnings alone spoil everything? Markets discount everything and charts have a way of telling the same because they represent unbaised price action. According to my analysis, 540 was a crucial level. A day closing below this triggered a major sell off. The next support was at 340 levels according to Fibonnaci retracement at 61.8%. But it didnt hold. So the next level is around 120!
