Interesting Fibonacci Extension Daily ES Charts, 2009.05.22

21. May 2009

Below is an ES daily chart.  As mentioned in past posts, the right, blue arrow is an extension of the left arrow.  In this case you see the 100% and 127.2% levels labeled in light gray and orange.  The bottom red arrow was drawn from low pivot to low pivot.  Making a copy of this arrow (staying parallel and same length) and dragging it to the top pivot, it pointed to the exact day we would hit the 100% level.  Amazing! 

 
 
Taking it one step further, we look at fib time.  Taking a fib time extension of the top red arrow, we have the vertical 1.272 time line and the 1.272 price level.  Where these two lines cross gives an estimate of when to expect price to get there (blue arrow is pointing at this cross.  Very accurate!  
 
 

Looking forward, if we rally from here, the next target is 995 sometime in the middle of June (See blue arrow pointing to the 1.618 levels crossing).
 
 
 
What if we fall instead?  Using the same technique as above, below are the below targets.  Again, both red arrows are the same length and are parallel.
 
 
 
What if we throw a pitchfork on there?  Right in line.  Keep in mind these future fib dates don't take into account weekends or holidays, so they will become more accurate as time goes on.
 
 
We are not market predictors, but market reactors.  Plan scenarios on where the market could go and be ready to react.
 
Good Hunting!

In considering whether to trade or to authorize someone else to trade for you, you should be aware of the following:
  • If you purchase a commodity option, you may sustain a total loss of the premium and of all transaction costs.
  • If you purchase or sell a commodity future or sell a commodity option, you may sustain a total loss of the initial margin funds and any additional funds that you deposit with your broker to establish or maintain your position.
  • If the market moves against your position, you may be called upon by your broker to deposit a substantial amount of additional margin funds, on short notice, in order to maintain your position.
  • If you do not provide the requested funds within the prescribed time, your position may be liquidated at a loss, and you will be liable for any resulting deficit in your account.
  • Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. This can occur, for example, when the market makes a "limit move".
  • The placement of contingent orders by you or your trading advisor, such as a "stop-loss" or "stop-limit" order, will not necessarily limit your losses to the intended amounts, since market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders.
  • The high degree of leverage that is often obtainable in commodity trading can work against you as well as for you. The use of leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains.
