Fib tool settings

Fibonacci retracement is the most common technical analysis tool used by traders. The indicator draws lines, the vertical distance between lines calculated by Fibonacci ratio (most common used include : 23.6%, 34.0%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%, 88.6 % and 100%). The tool is used to identify levels of support and resistance, stop-loss and take profit, or target price. These ratios are used as calculated retracement areas.

The Fibonacci tool has 8 built-in pre-sets, often used by traders.
