Fibonacci Extension

Price projections beyond 100% of a measured wave move. Common extension levels are 127.2%, 161.8%, 200%, and 261.8%. Used to project where Wave 3, Wave 5, or Wave C might terminate.

EXAMPLE

If Wave 1 travels 100 pips, the 161.8% extension projects Wave 3 to reach 161.8 pips from the start of Wave 1.
