MT4 / MT5 Fibonacci Indicators
Prices of financial instruments tend to move in long-term circles. These circles include several waves and five times more sub waves. The application of a Fibonacci indicator can prove helpful in determining areas of potential price reversals within these waves and their sub waves.
Fibonacci ratios suggest general price areas and not exact price levels and therefore we must use another tool to confirm any decision such as an indicator, candlestick formation, price pattern, etc. Don't blindly accept reversals near Fibonacci levels. Always confirm your entry signals and trade them very selectively. Adding a Fibonacci Indicator into an existing trading system can bring several benefits:
-
Identify high-probability trades
-
Place accurate stop-loss orders and thus minimizing the loss potential
-
Identify low-risk entries at the early stages of strong trends
-
Forecast potential profit targets
-
Boost the average Reward/Risk ratio
These are some popular Fibonacci Indicators for MetaTrader-4 and MetaTrader-5. Only the first indicator is commercial, all the others are free. The advantage of the commercial Fibo Machine is that it generates specific trading signals (entry, take-profit, and stop-loss) and delivers them via email. From the six indicators that are presented below, the first 4 are coded for MT4 and the last 2 for MT5.
For those who are beginners and don't know how to insert indicators into MT4 / MT5, there is a short tutorial at the end.
