DTFX Algo Zones harness the power of automatic Fibonacci Retracements, drawing from significant market structure shifts to help traders identify potential support and resistance levels where price might pivot, confirming the market's direction.

How to Trade DTFX Algo Zones?

Unlike traditional Fibonacci retracement tools, DTFX Algo Zones focus on market structure shifts, making them a powerful tool for technical traders. These levels are calculated post the identification of a Break of Structure (BOS) or Change of Character (CHoCH), which are essential technical patterns signaling potential trend changes or continuations. When the price breaks above or below a critical swing point, a retracement is drawn, spanning from this break to the extreme point achieved post-break. This refined approach ensures that the retracement levels reflect only significant market movements.

Traders often watch these retracement zones to anticipate where the price might retrace and reverse, thus validating the prevailing trend direction. For instance, bouncing from these levels further confirms the identified market structure shift, reinforcing trend guidance. However, any break through these zones could signify underlying weakness or simply market noise, suggesting caution.

Understanding DTFX Algo Zones Details

The algorithm embeds standard SMC market structure identification principles to pinpoint BOS and CHoCH, extending clarity in trading decisions. Specific swing points, marked by shapes, indicate potential reversal or continuation zones above or below these pivotal candles.

Users have the flexibility to tailor their chart views with options such as unchecking the "Display All Zones" setting, allowing them to focus on a specific number of recent retracement zones using the "Show Last" parameter. This customizability helps traders maintain a clear, focused chart interface, crucial for effective decision-making.

Moreover, enabling the "Clean-Up Level Overlap" setting optimizes the display by reducing overlap, fostering a neater, more interpretable chart view. You can choose up to 5 Fibonacci levels to represent each zone, adjusting their display options, values, styles, and colors to align with preferred visualization.

The computation of Fibonacci levels dynamically adapts to market direction—bullish zones have the bottom as 0 and the top as 1, whereas bearish zones are the opposite.
