Overview

Fibonacci Trend-Based Extension is a pivotal tool in FinStudio that extends beyond traditional Fibonacci analysis by focusing on potential price targets during an ongoing trend. This tool uses Fibonacci ratios to project where the price might go following a significant price movement, providing traders with key levels for taking profits or reevaluating positions.

Construction and Use

1. Select the Tool: Navigate to the Fibonacci section in the drawing tools menu and select the Fibonacci Trend-Based Extension tool.
2. Setting the Base: Click at the beginning of a significant price move, drag to the peak of this move, and then drag to the retracement point. This sets the base from which extensions are projected.
3. Projection Lines: Upon release, the tool automatically extends lines forward, displaying potential resistance or support levels based on Fibonacci ratios (such as 138.2%, 150%, 161.8%).
4. Adjustment: Users can adjust these lines as new market data unfolds or as their analysis requires refinement.

Features

• Dynamic Projections: Automatically adjusts projections as traders redefine the base or retracement levels.

Practical Applications
