This is the trading playbook where the charts do the talking and every session makes you a better trader. Hello everyone and welcome to the trading playbook. My name is Lenhow here with verified investing and happy happy Saturday everyone. Hope you guys are doing well, having a great day. Um, in today's episode, we're going to talk about something very, very interesting that honestly I didn't believe for a long time. Um, but it is actually an incredible um, [clears throat] incredible thing that happens all throughout different trading and in nature itself. And that is the play. And the play is Fibonacci and Fibonacci retraces. So a Fibonacci retrace or a fib, right? Fibonacci extension is kind of a pattern that happens all throughout nature and within uh trading, right? It's a pattern that we see everywhere. Um and it's a mathematical mathematical pattern that's quite interesting, right? For the uses of our trading, right? for the uses of our trading. We use it to kind of find out where things might find support or resistance on a retrace. Now, what does that mean? Well, we know about trend line retraces, right? We know that, hey, you come back down and you retrace, you expect some sort of resistance there. Come down, run into resistance, right? That would be a retrace, right? But what if you have a larger, more extended move like this one? How do you find a level to potentially reshort it? Where are you looking for resistance? And what you use here is this cool this tool here, excuse me, called the fib retracement tool. And how you use it is you basically take a point from the high or the low, right? You can do either. And drag it to the lowest point. in this case right here and you're looking for a retrace. Now what does that mean? That means after the move has completed where did it come back and run into resistance and each of these numbers here the 236 382.5 618 786 8886 and basically the full retrace right the more you retrace the more powerful you're expecting kind of resistance right and in simpler terms you can think of the 0.5 as it has come back up 50% of that drop, right? And you can use this in almost any chart. And you can see how it worked at least here in Nvidia after coming down, pushing back up. You can see where did it first chop around and find resistance right here at the 382. And where did it have larger resistance? right here around the 0.5 fib pulling back. Here's 7%. And here over 11% from that region, right? And you can see now Nvidia is pushing up towards the 618 fib. But after these two retraces, you're expecting these levels of previous resistance to be weaker, right? To not have as much strength, right? So you can try drawing this at home. Let's do Oracle, right? Looking at Oracle, thinking about how would you draw your fib. Go ahead and pause your screen, open up your trading view, and try and draw your fib. And again, you're taking a point from the very top to the very bottom here. And what do you see? A beautiful set of fib levels. And in this case, you can see that Oracle stalling out, finding resistance right here at the 236, right? Additionally, it's a previous pivot high, right? So, you can kind of add your levels together, right? But that brings me to the next rule of fib retracements and playing these levels. FIBs are not always, right? They're not always solid levels that are you're expecting pull back to the penny, right? It often, you know, it often pierces and goes above that, right? So, think of FIBS as rather than, you know, a solid line. It has to pull back here. It's like you're expecting it to potentially pierce and then fall. You see here, it pierced it and then decided to fall. Pierced again, then decided to fall. Same thing with Oracle. pushed up into it and then you're seeing some level of resistance there. All right, the next chart that I'm going to talk a little bit about is AMD. And I might have spoiled it a little bit, but can you draw the fib on this on this fall? Well, first off, right, if you take a look here, you can draw it in a couple places. First off, if you would just want to do this smaller move right from its highs, you see that hey, it pulled back and retraced to the 786 right here and then ultimately fell. It found resistance here at the 0.5 fib. And if we draw the fib a little, take it all the way down to this one. Where did it go? Pushed back up. Pulled back at the 50% fib retrace. Pulled back at the 618 as well. and off of the 0.5 fib fell 10% off of the 618 fell again. But just like I said previously guys, what did it do? It pushed up and it pierced it, right? And then it pierced out. The last stock I'm going to do, and we'll do this one together in real time here, is going to be SpaceX. Looking here at SpaceX, we see this big huge vertical fall. Well, where do you expect resistance? Right? Where are you anticipating resistance? Well, it gives you the levels very clearly for you. 236 382.5 fib. But what if we draw a fib from right here, the recent high? Then you take a look and say, "Wow, it almost got to the 382 and pierced that 236 before retracing and falling over 10%. almost coming back to a um right to the lowest point, right? So, I hope that made sense, guys. Um it's a little bit of a it's not a trade that I would take off of this singular factor, but it's important to note, guys, that all of these things that I'm teaching you, everything that you're learning here from the trading playbook is just another tool in your tool bag, right? Whether it's a fib, whether it's a head and shoulders pattern, whether it's a bull or bare flag, whether it's a pivot psychological level, they're not supposed to be the only things you use. But when you have, you know, a pivot high that lines up with a beautiful head and shoulders pattern, which lines up with a fib retrace, you know, then you start getting multifactor trades. And think of it as for every single factor that you have in there, gap fill. You know, another thing, the probability of your trade playing out goes up. All right, with that being said, guys, that's all I have for you today. Thank you so much for watching. Again, my name is Lo here with Verified Investing. Before I let you go, I just want you to know that Gareth and I launched the Milliondoll Long-Term Investor. Um, it's a service created to focus on long-term investing.

I hope you have a great rest of your day and I'll see you tomorrow. Bye guys. Life [music] moves fast. One day you're starting your career, the next you're raising a family, running a business, paying a mortgage, and wondering where the last 10 years [music] went. Most people know they should be investing for the future. The problem is they don't know who to trust, [music] what to buy, or when to make a move. That's why we created Milliondoll Long-Term Investor. I'm Gareth Soloway. For decades, I've studied the market cycles, investor psychology, [music] and the forces that drive long-term wealth creation. One thing I've learned is that not every dollar should be traded [music] actively. Some capital deserves a different approach, a more patient approach, a more disciplined approach. That's exactly what million-doll long-term investor is designed to provide. To help lead that effort, I've partnered with verified investing protrader Lton Ho. Together, we manage a $1 million model portfolio built around the principles [music] of long-term investing, transparency, and disciplined risk management. Most investors don't want to sit in front of charts all day. They have careers, families, and responsibilities. [music] They want their money working for them, even when they're focused on [music] everything else that life demands. That's the investor we're building this portfolio for. We focus primarily on highquality companies, dividend paying stocks, and major ETFs positioned to benefit from longerterm market cycles. Positions are often built gradually over time. [music] We'll add when opportunities develop. We'll sometimes take partial profits along the way, and we'll often maintain a core position to stay invested [music] in the bigger moon. When market conditions call for it, we may also take defensive positions to help protect capital during broader [music] market downturn. The goal isn't constant activity. The goal is disciplined portfolio growth over time. As a member, you'll be able to follow the portfolio as it evolves. You'll receive updates whenever changes are made. You'll see the positions we're building, the adjustments [music] we're making, and the reasoning behind every decision. Twice each week, I'll provide portfolio updates covering current positions, [music] market conditions, and opportunities we're monitoring next. No guessing, no hidden trades, just transparency. [music] >> Building wealth isn't about finding the next hot stock. It's about making smart decisions consistently over time. [music] That's how portfolios grow. That's how retirement accounts grow, [music] and that's how long-term wealth is built. If that's the approach you're looking for, [music] we'd love to have you join us.
