In finance, Fibonacci retracement is a method of technical analysis for determining support and resistance levels. [1] It is named after the Fibonacci sequence of numbers, [ 1 ] whose ratios provide price levels to which markets tend to retrace a portion of a move, before a trend continues in the original direction.
A more common version of line break charts is a “three-line break” chart, which indicates that for a market reversal to occur (a new line that forms in the opposite direction to the previous lines), the price will have to break above or below the previous three lines depending on the direction of the lines.

Fibonacci ratios – used as a guide to determine support and resistance and retracement percentages Momentum – the rate of price change Point and figure analysis – A priced-based analytical approach employing numerical filters which may incorporate time references, though ignores time entirely in its construction
For example, below is a chart of the S&P 500 since the earliest data point until April 2008. While the Oracle example above uses a linear scale of price changes, long term data is more often viewed as logarithmic: e.g. the changes are really an attempt to approximate percentage changes than pure numerical value.
The Island Reversals. In both stock trading and financial technical analysis, an island reversal is a candlestick pattern with compact trading activity within a range of prices, separated from the move preceding it. [1]
Retracement in finance is a complete or partial reversal of the price of a security or a derivative from its current trend, thereby creating a temporary counter-trend. Not to be confused with Fibonacci Retracement , market correction and/or market reversal , which are the most popular types of retracements.
Fibonacci retracement is a pseudo-scientific technique on a par with financial astrology, Gann theory, ermanometry etc. This ABSOLUTELY needs to be stated in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.210.144.211 ( talk ) 20:09, 10 February 2011 (UTC) [ reply ]
For example, a Fibonacci LFSR with taps at 000_0011 in state 000_0010 will step forward to step 100_0001 and then 110_0000. If we bit-reverse that final state (producing 000_0011) and load it into the "mirrored" Fibonacci LFSR -- i.e., the one with taps at 100_0001 -- then stepping it forward produces state 100_0001 (the bit-reversal of 100 ...
