The wonders of Fibs
This is USDJPY on FXCM.
Left pane is Weekly chart going back to 2012.
Right panels are zoomed in views of the circled areas.
The Fib in left pane was drawn from the first impulse in first Quarter 2012.
Each of the fib extensions shown becomes relevant later.
Check the 4.0 Extension at 110.025. Not 110.000, not 100.000 but 110.025
That extension was touched once before (albeit cut though several times)
That extension was touched this month (upper right) to the pip, and twice.
Fascinating for several reasons:
1) The Ripples of a ''Protuberance'' that happened 6 years ago are still clearly in effect today.
2) This asset trades almost a $1 Trillion PER DAY by almost all banks around the globe.
3) Numerous conditions, people, and econs have changed a lot in the last six+ years.
YET, that tiny first wave six years later still directs Trillions of Dollars and perhaps Billions of People to decide that $110.025 is THE number of importance Right Now.
