RE: [RT] Why Fibonacci Numbers work and Number crunching - change directions

Clyde,

I have the definitive answer for you if you truly wish to discover which
Pivots to use.  Here's your answer:

ALWAYS USE THE PATTERN TERMINATION POINT.

How do we find the pattern termination point?  

BUY GLEN NEELY's "MASTERING ELLIOTT WAVE" and spend a few years
practising
And codifying what you can.  Of course I doubt anyone on the planet
could do 
It successfully, but people love challenges.
