It's easier for me to help you if you ask a question.
What would you like to know?

Here is another example, on the 60-minute chart to the left.
http://www.fibtrader.com/charts/workshop-005294-000000.gif

On the right, the daily chart, you will see how SO
supported near $24.00 at a fib level that was predicted
in advance of price getting there. At that point, a
lower time-frame DRPO (60-minute) makes it an attractive
trade, predicting a quick move upward.

Good stuff! This trade is was submitted by a trader to 
the proprietary client forums.
