The reason why many traders new to using the Fibonacci retracement tool find it hard to effectively use it is because they are having trouble identifying swing points that are significant enough to be considered. This is where the ZigZag indicator comes in.

The ZigZag indicator is a great tool to use to identify swing points. If you’d backtest it, it does seem to effectively pinpoint relevant swing points. So, we will be using these swing points as a basis for measuring our Fibonacci retracement tool, and we will be waiting for the price to react at around 50% of the Fibonacci retracement tool.
