I have 17 consecutive profitable trades of 15% or better. How is this possible? Every day there are hundreds of stocks setting new highs, no matter what happens in the overall market. Many of these stocks are still at very reasonable valuations. Afraid of buying stocks at their highs? Think of it this way: a new high is really a future floor for companies with solid financial underpinnings. Quantitative momentum modeling makes it easy to identify stocks that can continue this upward momentum trend. Why does this happen? It's really very simple..ask me about what investors and cows have in common. I am $$$ MR. MARKET $$$. I AM HUGE!!! Bring me your finest meats and cheeses. You can join in on the fun.

Folks, because I'm such a nice guy, I'm giving you a copy of my handy-dandy Fibonacci Retracement Tool.
You need Microsoft Excel on your computer in order to run it. It's not the greatest thing since bottled beer, but it is kind of handy. If you try it and like it, let me know by leaving a little note here.
Here's a screenshot ...
Update: 4:03 p.m., I just added more functionality to this spreadsheet. I added a button (not shown in screenshot) to easily create a text file that has the important info from the spreadsheet.

Hi Rob I didn’t know you were a fan of Fibonacci. Are you a math major or an engineer? I understand the fundamental of Fibonacci and familiar with the retracement. The retracement takes the high and low of the stock and dividing by the vertical distance by the Fibonacci ratios.
I’m not sure how to use you spreadsheet. I was trying to see your formulas but the spread sheet is writing protected. Anyway give me a few more days to think about this and will have more to add. Thanks

No, but maybe I should have been as much as I love numbers.

When I first heard about people applying Fibonacci ratios to stock prices, my first impression was that it was a lot of hooey. But I did some reading on the subject and how these retracement percentages seem to be often observed in nature, and I began to understand that there may be something to this theory. At any rate, like so many other things in life, if enough people put faith in it, it will become a self-fulfilling prophecy regardless of whether there is any validity to it. Here is an interesting article on using Fibonacci numbers in trend analysis, which also has a little background info.

I always do that. In this case the formulas shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
