SUPPORT AREA:

Below the neutral zone, there are four support levels called SA, SB, SC, and SD. These are Fibonacci support levels based on the previous weeks stock actions.

On the next page is an illustration of how to use T.J. Web Levels. T.J.’s Web Levels are shown for McDonald’s stock based on Friday’s close.

The Web Levels suggest support and resistance levels for the next trading day. If the stock price rallies on Monday, the last resistance level (RD) suggests this stock should not trade past the $34 level. Equally, the last support level (SD) suggests that this stock should not trade past the $30 level. On Monday, McDonald’s stock traded to a high of 31

3/8 and to a low of 30, containing stock price movement to within this day’s SA and SD

Web Levels.

This example has been given to illustrate the principle behind T.J.’s Webs. You cannot expect these Web Levels to hold true all the time, but if used on a continual basis they

Applying Technical Analysis

The T.J.’s Web Levels can be used with intraday indicators such as the slow 21 bar sto-chastics and the Elliott Oscillator on a five minute bar chart. When the Elliott oscillator gives a true Elliott divergence, as described in the earlier in this section, and the stochas-tics is above the 80 level, a short signal can be initiated at a T.J.’s Web Level using the next Web Level as the stop. A buy signal works exactly the opposite.

The general idea is to take the initial time between two Primary or Major Pivots. These pivots can be identified by the user or from the labels generated by the software from the Pivots Menu.

This initial time is extended to the future using various Fibonacci ratios. We suggest 1.62

and 2.62. However, you can use any combination. If you do not like the preset ratios we have added, you can enter your own values such as 3.79 , 2.94, etc.

The theory is to look for a potential change in trend at these future extended time periods.

FIBONACCI TIME CLUSTERS

Take the time distance (number of bars) between two pivots and extend (project) ratios of this time distance to the future. You will notice that many of the future pivots (change in trend points) occur at these extended time periods.

QUESTION:

What ratios should I use? Do I use all the pivots or just the Primary and Major ones? Do I use High to High swings or Low to Low swings?

ANSWER:

A very large number of traders use this method. However, each trader uses different ratios, different sets of pivots, and different types of swings. You can basically use any combination and still obtain accurate projections some of the time. From our research, we have not found any one combination that works best all the time.

QUESTION:

Then how does one use this technique?

ANSWER:

Use all reasonable combinations, and look for a group of Clusters. Lets assume numerous traders are using this study, each using different ratios, pivots, etc. Regardless of which combination is used, the collective projections of all traders will result in certain areas where a majority of the traders will get a CHANGE IN TREND PROJECTION.

Thus the areas identified by a group of Clusters define such collective projection levels.

Example – Fibonacci Time Clusters

The chart shown below is the Daily December 1989 D-Mark. The Time Clusters were generated by using the following:

# All Primary and Major Pivots.

# Fibonacci Time extensions of 1.62 and 2.62 with 100 % weighting.

# High to High Swings plus Low to Low swings

# Minimum 10 bars in between pivots

# Maximum 100 bars in between pivots.

FIBONACCI EXTENSION PRICE CLUSTERS

Fibonacci extensions and retracement levels are used by just about every trader. Sure they may all have their own unique methods of applying them, or their own secret Fibonacci ratios.

Regardless of the numerous methods used, the collective projections of all traders will result in certain price levels where a majority of the traders will get the same support or resistance projections. The software can identify such collective levels by way of Clustering.

FIBONACCI RETRACEMENT PRICE CLUSTERS

Just like the extensions, traders all around the world use Fibonacci Price Retracement levels to determine support and resistance levels. Different traders use different retracement levels and also calculate from different swing levels.

Regardless of the numerous methods used, the collective projections of all traders will result in certain price levels where a majority of the traders will get the same support or resistance projections. The software can identify such collective levels by way of Clustering.
