Swing Highs to Swing Lows
Swing Lows to Swing Highs

imho it's a vastly overrated tool. The actual ratios are based on Mumbo Jumbo, although often have some meaning as lots of Traders like Mumbo Jumbo, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mumbo_Jumbo Fibs are based upon pseudo science, similar of Numerology, Astrology, Palm Reading, Iridology etc

Suggest that you use fibs only to draw you eye to the Order Blocks. ie as a retacement tool, 65% has as much meaning as 61.8 or the other 'magic' numbers.

I don't care what you believe or use in your trading, but thought it was funny how you answered this guys question and in the same breath denounced the use of the tool. lol

don't you see how that makes you look? :p

No a Fib was pulled or required.
Fibs are only (sometimes) of passing interest in retrospect.

Now you are denying the setups i posted in realtime? :p

no it's confusing because ICT uses fibs, and doesn't denounce them like you do.

if you look carefully you may realize that he uses Fibs more to assist in his teachings rather than as a definitive Trading Tool. eg to paraphrase "use fibs to draw your eye to the Order Block".

As such they should be used as a rough retracement tool, say 60% to 80% zone, not some definitive ratio. there is nothing predictive about fib ratios, they are only reliable in retrospect and maybe only of use by beginner/intermediate Traders having difficulty identifying Order Blocks.

ICT many times said the He uses Fibs because of Order Blocks OTE is just closest to OB without OB there would have been no Sweet Spot.

To answer Jony92's actual question:

The Current Range on the Daily Chart (Swing Point to Swing Point);
From the Swing Points (H1 or lower) that Price Moves away from RAPIDLY. Speed is a sign of value of the swing point.
