Fibonacci Time Ratios

For illustrative purposes only, not a recommendation.

Description

Fibonacci time ratios represent the aspect of time in Elliott Wave Theory. The drawing consists of vertical lines distant from each other based on Fibonacci ratios; these lines are said to mark important time targets if counted forward from a significant peak or trough.

In order to add the Fibonacci time ratios drawing to chart, choose it from the Active Tool menu. Specify begin and end points of the trendline; the time targets will be calculated automatically.

 

Properties

Appearance:

  • Calculate ratios by. Set this property to "Time" so that the lines will be distanced based on time span between the first and the last one; otherwise the distances will be calculated based on the number of bars in the time span.

Begin point:

  • Value. Defines the price value corresponding to the begin point of the trendline.

  • Date/Time. Defines the time scale value corresponding to the begin point of the trendline.

End point:

  • Value. Defines the price value corresponding to the end point of the trendline.

  • Date/Time. Defines the time scale value corresponding to the end point of the trendline.

Fibonacci curve properties:

This section allows you to add extra parallel lines to the Fibonacci time targets.

  • Visible. Defines which of the extras line should be visible.

  • Coefficient. Defines the percentage ratio as a decimal.

  • Color. Defines the color of the line.

  • Style. Defines whether the line should be plotted as solid, long-dashed, or short-dashed.

  • Width. Defines the line width in pixels.
