Neal,

I see that you have used the .618 expansion point in your examples. Are you
saying that the .618 expansion is more accurate than the 1.0 and 1.618?

Attached are 3 fib expansions the way I do them. Very accurate this way. In
my opinion
it's the only way...

3 expansions in 2 gifs.

Look at this accuracy from a trade this morning on the 1 minute mini Nasdaq.
Price retraced exactly to the 38.2% level. A 61.8% stop (plus a tick) gave a
comfortable 4 point stop.

My projections look really accurate, but they are extended from the pivot
low, and not the more common pivot high of the rally. Which brings me to a
question that I have. I'm not a great user of Fib expansions, as I use other
means to exit and have never taken enough time to test them. There are
several ways to use Fib expansions that I have seen:

1. Drawn from points A-B and projecting in the continuing direction

2. Drawn from the high ( for a buy) of the corrective rally

and for a total reversal,

3. Drawn from A-B and projecting in the reverse direction to the initial
move.

I've seen all these methods used at one time or another, and wonder what
other traders' experiences might have been.
