However, there are ways that you can help tilt the odds in your favor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the&nbsp;<strong>Fibonacci retracement tool<\/strong>&nbsp;is extremely useful, it shouldn\u2019t be used all by its lonesome self.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s kinda like comparing it to NBA legend&nbsp;Kobe Bryant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kobe was one of the greatest basketball players of all time, but even he couldn\u2019t win those titles by himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He needed some backup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, the Fibonacci retracement tool should be used in combination with other tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this lesson, let\u2019s take what you\u2019ve learned so far and try to combine them to help us spot some sweet trade setups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are y\u2019all ready? Let\u2019s get this pip show on the road!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fibonacci Retracement + Support and Resistance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best ways to use the Fibonacci retracement tool is to spot potential support and resistance levels and see if they line up with Fibonacci retracement levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Fibonacci levels are already support and resistance levels, and you combine them with other price areas that a lot of other traders are watching, then the chances of price bouncing from those areas are much higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at an example of how you can combine support and resistance levels with Fibonacci levels. Below is a daily chart of USD\/CHF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bpcdn.co\/images\/2016\/05\/grade3-fibonacci-support-resistance2.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bpcdn.co\/images\/2016\/05\/grade3-fibonacci-support-resistance.png\" alt=\"Daily chart of USD\/CHF with Fibonacci retracement levels\" title=\"Daily chart of USD\/CHF with Fibonacci retracement levels\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, it\u2019s been on an uptrend recently. Look at all those green candles!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You decide that you want to get in on this long USD\/CHF bandwagon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the question is, \u201cWhen do you enter?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You bust out the Fibonacci retracement tool, using the low at&nbsp;<strong>1.0132<\/strong>&nbsp;on January 11 for the Swing Low and the high at&nbsp;<strong>1.0899<\/strong>&nbsp;on February 19 for the Swing High.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now your chart looks pretty sweet with all those Fibonacci retracement levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bpcdn.co\/images\/2016\/05\/grade3-fibonacci-support-resistance-start.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bpcdn.co\/images\/2016\/05\/grade3-fibonacci-support-resistance-start-thumbnail.png\" alt=\"Resistance turned support at 50.0% Fib?\" title=\"Resistance turned support at 50.0% Fib?\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we have a framework to increase our probability of finding a solid entry, we can answer the question \u201cWhere should you enter?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You look back a little bit and you see that the 1.0510 price was good resistance level in the past and it just happens to line up with the&nbsp;<strong>50.0%<\/strong>&nbsp;Fibonacci retracement level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that it\u2019s broken, it could turn into support and be a good place to buy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bpcdn.co\/images\/2016\/05\/grade3-fibonacci-support-resistance-end.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bpcdn.co\/images\/2016\/05\/grade3-fibonacci-support-resistance-end-thumbnail.png\" alt=\"Resistance turned support at 50.0% Fib holds and price eventually makes a new high\" title=\"Resistance turned support at 50.0% Fib holds and price eventually makes a new high\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you did set an order somewhere around the 50.0% Fib level, you\u2019d be a pretty happy camper!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There would have been some pretty tense moments, especially on the second test of the support level on April 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Price tried to pierce through the support level but&nbsp;<strong>failed to close below it<\/strong>. Eventually, the pair broke past the Swing High and resumed its uptrend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can do the same setup on a downtrend as well. The point is you should look for price levels that seem to have been areas of interest in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think about it, there\u2019s a higher chance that the price will bounce from these levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, as we discussed in\u00a0Grade 1, previous support or resistance levels are usually good areas to buy or sell because other traders will also be eyeing these levels like a hawk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, since we know that a lot of traders also use the Fibonacci retracement tool, they may be looking to jump in on these Fib levels themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>With traders looking at the same support and resistance levels, there\u2019s a good chance that there are a ton of orders at those price levels.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While there\u2019s no guarantee that the price will bounce from those levels, at least you can be more confident about your trade. After all, there is strength in numbers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that trading is all about&nbsp;<strong>probabilities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you stick to those higher probability trades, then there\u2019s a better chance of coming out ahead in the long run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Like we said in the\u00a0previous lesson, using Fibonacci levels can be very subjective.
