How to use

In the indicator, we provide the automatic Fibonacci Retracement to gauge the potential reversal opportunity. Hence, you can readily combine the classic Fibonacci trading setup with our Excessive momentum indicator. Do remember that excessive momentum line is the important support and resistance for your trading. Even though you have measured the Fibonacci ratio correctly for the potential reversal opportunity, the price must cross the excessive momentum line for confirmation. Sometimes, price can bounce off from the excessive momentum line. In this case, we get another reversal trading opportunity from excessive momentum line. Just treat the excessive momentum line as sensible support and resistance for your trading.

Additional Tools for Momentum Indicator

With excessive momentum indicator, oscillators like RSI and CCI can be used as secondary confirmation tools. This is the basic requirement for your trading.

With Harmonic Pattern and Elliott Wave pattern

If you want to use Excessive momentum indicator together with Harmonic pattern or Elliott Wave pattern, you can replace the Fibonacci Retracement provided from Excessive Momentum Indicator with your harmonic pattern or Elliott wave pattern measurement (you will need to use external Harmonic Pattern or Elliott Wave software for this). Alternatively, you can use Fibonacci Retracement together with Harmonic pattern and Elliott wave pattern if you wish.

With Volume Spread Analysis

Excessive Momentum indicator can be used  with volume spread analysis. For practical trading, we focus on identifying accumulation (=demand zone) and distribution area (=supply zone). To do so, you will be identifying demand and supply patterns around Excessive momentum zone to confirm the accumulation area and distribution area.

Please use one of these two Indicators for accumulation and distribution area identification.
