The Fibonacci Timing Pattern indicator is a price-based counter tool designed to identify short-term and medium-term price reversals by analyzing consecutive closing price relationships.

Usage

The Fibonacci Timing Pattern is primarily used to detect exhaustion in price movement, signaling potential turning points. Traders can utilize the signals in two main ways:

  • Sideways Markets: Signals can be used to identify reversals at the boundaries of a trading range.
  • Trending Markets: Signals can be used for trend-following entries by taking bullish signals during an established uptrend and bearish signals during a downtrend.

A bullish signal is represented by a green triangle below the bar, while a bearish signal is represented by a red triangle above the bar.

Details

The indicator relies on a sequence of eight consecutive candles meeting specific price criteria based on Fibonacci-related offsets (3 and 5).

  • Bullish Fibonacci Timing Signal: Triggered when the market forms 8 consecutive closes where each close is lower than the closes from 3 and 5 periods ago.
  • Bearish Fibonacci Timing Signal: Triggered when the market forms 8 consecutive closes where each close is higher than the closes from 3 and 5 periods ago.

The logic ensures that the pattern represents a sustained momentum move that is likely reaching a point of overextension relative to its recent lookback periods.

Settings

  • This indicator currently operates on fixed logic based on the Fibonacci Timing Pattern rules and does not feature user-adjustable inputs for the lookback periods or consecutive count to maintain the integrity of the original pattern.
