Fibonacci Price Pivots\u2026<\/p>\n<p>This next Weekly NQ chart highlights the minor Fibonacci Price Pivots.\u00a0 These are the price lows and highs that do not constitute a \u201ccritical price high or low\u201d on the chart.\u00a0 They are still valid for us in our understanding of Fibonacci price theory and where future price may attempt to rally or selloff to and they help skilled traders in understanding the true nature of price activity and structure.<\/p>\n<p>Minor Fibonacci Price Pivots are intermediate unique high or low price levels that set up the \u201cwave structure\u201d in price that we are attempting to illustrate to you.\u00a0 When price moves higher, a series of new higher highs and higher lows usually sets up within that trend.\u00a0 When price moves lower, a series of new lower lows and lower highs usually set up within that trend.\u00a0 These minor pivots are a method of tracking this type of price activity and a process of learning the major and minor price levels that usually become very important in determining what is really happening in price structure.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a

minor pivots onto one chart to grasp the bigger price structure.<\/p>\n<p>Once we combine these major and minor Fibonacci Price Pivots onto one chart, you should be able to see the \u201croad-map\u201d of the structure of price fairly easily.\u00a0 You should be able to see how Major Pivots setup massive critical price structures (tops and bottoms) that establish the major support and resistance levels in price.\u00a0 These also become major trigger levels for broader trends and reversals in price.\u00a0 You should also be able to see how the Minor Pivot Levels offer intermediate price guidance and shorter-term support and resistance as price attempts to work through the Fibonacci Price Theory Structure.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, the Fibonacci Price Theory suggests that price is always attempting to reach new highs or new lows within a trend.\u00a0 Thus, if it is not attempting to reach new highs, then it must be an attempt to reach new lows.\u00a0 These pivot structures are the keys to understanding the true Fibonacci price theory.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a

above 9750, the most recent Major Fibonacci Pivot High, in order to qualify for a new Longer-term Bullish trend.\u00a0 We expect the price of the NQ will rotate lower in the near future simply because the most recent confirmed price trend was the breakdown low in early 2020 that broke below the past three major Fibonacci Low Price Pivots.<\/p>\n<p>Remember the Fibonacci Price Theory tells us that Price is always attempting to establish new price highs or lows \u2013 all the time.\u00a0 Thus, if the newest price low has broken below the past Major Low Price Pivots, then the trend is considered Bearish until price confirms it has broken above the most recent Major High Price Pivot.<\/p>\n<p>As you continue to learn Fibonacci Price Theory and apply these techniques, remember that these types of price structures are fundamental components to the much broader technical analysis techniques and modeling systems we use every day for our clients.\u00a0 We want to help you learn to become a
