Data Science and ML (Part 40): Using Fibonacci Retracements in Machine Learning data

Fibonacci numbers can be traced back to the ancient mathematician Leonardo of Pisa, also known as Fibonacci.

In his book named "Liber Abaci", published in 1202, Fibonacci introduced the sequence of numbers now known as the Fibonacci sequence. The sequence that starts with 0 and 1, and each subsequent number in the series is the sum of the two preceding numbers.

From Novice to Expert: Demystifying Hidden Fibonacci Retracement Levels

From Novice to Expert: Demystifying Hidden Fibonacci Retracement Levels

Fibonacci retracement levels are widely used but, sometimes price reacts to intermediate or repeated non-standard ratios. Our question is, can we use systematic, data-driven methods to discover such levels, test whether they occur more often than once, and, if robust, add them as first-class levels in our trading tools and strategies?

Price Action Analysis Toolkit Development (Part 46): Designing an Interactive Fibonacci Retracement EA with Smart Visualization in MQL5

Price Action Analysis Toolkit Development (Part 46): Designing an Interactive Fibonacci Retracement EA with Smart Visualization in MQL5

In our previous article in this series, Price Action Analysis Toolkit Development, we focused on testing price levels to review how the market had reacted to them in the past—identifying breakouts, touches, and empirical breakout probabilities. A key feature behind that tool’s functionality was the on‑screen input panel, which allowed users to type a price level and trigger analysis with a single Analyze button.

 
Sergey Golubev:

Fibo Levels indicator.

Fully forecasting.

I don’t use the Fibonacci indicator in forex because, in my experience, it’s too subjective. Different traders draw Fibonacci levels differently — from different swing highs and lows — which means the results aren’t consistent. I prefer to rely on tools or methods that are based on clear, repeatable data rather than visual interpretation.

Also, I’ve found that price often respects key psychological levels, support/resistance zones, or order blocks more reliably than Fibonacci retracements. While some traders do find success with it, for my trading style, it adds more noise than value. I prefer to keep my charts clean and focus on price action and structure instead.
 

Automating Trading Strategies in MQL5 (Part 40): Fibonacci Retracement Trading with Custom Levels

Automating Trading Strategies in MQL5 (Part 40): Fibonacci Retracement Trading with Custom Levels

In our previous article (Part 39), we developed a Statistical Mean Reversion system in MetaQuotes Language 5 (MQL5) that analyzed price data for moments like mean, variance, skewness, kurtosis, and Jarque-Bera statistics, generated reversion signals based on confidence intervals with adaptive thresholds and higher timeframe confirmation, managed trades with equity-based sizing, trailing stops, partial closes, and time-based exits, while providing an on-chart dashboard for real-time monitoring. In Part 40, we develop a Fibonacci Retracement trading system with custom levels.

In this article, we build an MQL5 Expert Advisor for Fibonacci retracement trading, using either daily candle ranges or lookback arrays to calculate custom levels like 50% and 61.8% for entries, determining bullish or bearish setups based on close vs. open. The system triggers buys or sells on price crossings of levels with max trades per level, optional closure on new Fib calcs, points-based trailing stops after a min profit threshold, and SL/TP buffers as percentages of the range.
