Let me make the points clear.Please lets not look at point to point accuracy as its a zone which we are talking about.
Above is the nifty monthly chart ( One candle per one month).Now the month of june we have a hammer means price has closed upwards.This also means for the
period of last 30 days the price is in uptrend
.Please lets not confuse ourselves with market overall trend.we are looking at only last 30 days and one monthly candle.
Now what I did? I took high of the monthly candle.-5650..I have drawn fib till low of the candle- 5175...Now Please note that I am talking about retracement levels. Now what is 23% retracement level?what is the 38% retracement levels?what is the 50% retracement levels?what is the 62%retracement levels?its 5540,5470,5410,5355 respectively.This means if Nifty retraces 23% it will reach 5540,if it retraces 38% , it will reach 5470........if it retraces 62% it will reach 5355.......Please grasp this concept.
Now same Monthly chart of Nifty but it is with
"Fib extensions".In sharekhan 1.4.9 there is no seperate tool for "Fib extensions".Now what do I do.I start from the low and drag the fib line till high of the bar.I automatically get 123,138,150 and 162..in this case they are 5760,5830,5890 and 5940 respectively.
What does this mean?
This means in case the trend continues its upward journey the first level look for is at 123% @5760.In other words trend got extended to the tune of 23% from current close/levels.say it further continues its journey .what is the next level to watch for ..it is at 138% @5830 means the trend got extended to the tune of 38% from current levels/close. so is 150% .....162%.....
For just one month please keep it is as 23%,38%,50%,62%,100%,123%,138%,150% and 162% respectively. It will be easy.....After one month you will clearly understand how exactly they work....
