The Fibonacci Buy /Sell Signals indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential trend reversals and continuation points by plotting dynamic retracement levels based on recent price extremes.

Usage

The indicator can be used to identify entry points based on the interaction between price action and key Fibonacci ratios. When the price crosses above the 61.8% level, a "BUY" label is plotted, suggesting a strong bullish recovery or breakout. Conversely, when the price crosses below the 38.2% level, a "SELL" label appears, indicating potential bearish momentum.

Users can also observe the 50% midpoint and the 0%/100% boundaries to gauge the overall trading range and determine where the market is currently trading relative to its recent high and low. The background is highlighted to provide a quick visual cue of when the price is trending in the extreme bullish (above 61.8%) or bearish (below 38.2%) zones.

Details

The script identifies the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period to establish the Fibonacci range. It then calculates the internal retracement levels:

  • 0% & 100%: Represent the absolute low and high of the lookback period.
  • 38.2%: Often viewed as the first level of significant support/resistance in a retracement.
  • 50.0%: A common psychological midpoint used by traders.
  • 61.8%: Known as the Golden Ratio, representing a deep retracement level where trend continuations or reversals often occur.

Signals are generated using crossover and crossunder logic to ensure they trigger specifically when price momentum shifts beyond these defined thresholds.

Settings

  • Lookback Period: Defines the number of bars used to determine the highest high and lowest low for the Fibonacci calculation.
  • Fibonacci Buffer (%): A small percentage offset used to refine the sensitivity of the Fibonacci levels.

FAQ

How do I use the signals for entries?

Buy signals are triggered when the price closes above the 61.8% level, while sell signals are triggered when the price closes below the 38.2% level. Traders often use these in conjunction with trend analysis.

Can I adjust the range used for the Fibonacci levels?

Yes, you can modify the "Lookback Period" in the settings to calculate the levels over a shorter or longer timeframe depending on your trading style.
