Fibonacci Calculator
Plot every Fibonacci retracement and extension level on any forex, stock, crypto or commodity swing, in seconds. Auto-pulls live OHLC, finds the swing high and low, marks the golden zone (61.8–78.6%), and projects the 161.8% and 261.8% extension targets. No more dragging the tool by hand or guessing where price will reverse.
The seven retracement levels, the four extensions, and what each one means
Pick a symbol (forex, stocks, crypto or commodities) and the tool either auto-detects the most recent swing high and low from live OHLC or lets you type your own. Choose trend direction (uptrend or downtrend), hit Calculate, and the six panels below appear. Retracement table, multi-timeframe confluence, swing visualizer, extension targets, save-scenarios, and AI analysis.
1. Retracement levels : the seven prices to watch
The seven retracement prices. 0%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8% (the golden ratio), 78.6%, and 100%. Are computed from the swing range and rendered in a colour-coded table. The golden zone (61.8–78.6%) is highlighted in teal because that is the area where the majority of trend pullbacks reverse. Each level shows the exact price in the instrument’s quote currency, the percentage retraced, and the distance from the current live price in pips or points. You can add an eighth custom level (e.g. 70.5%) and it slots into the table in sorted order. Useful if your strategy uses a non-standard fib.
Retracement Levels
EUR/USD · 14d
EUR/USD typically moves 50 pips a day. That’s $500 of P&L per standard lot. Size stops accordingly.
2. Multi-timeframe Fortress Zones
Fortress Zones flags Fibonacci levels where the daily, 4-hour, and 1-hour timeframes all agree. E.g. the 61.8% retrace on the daily lining up with the 38.2% on the 4-hour and a prior swing low on the 1-hour. Confluent zones reverse 2–3× more reliably than single-timeframe levels because every active trader cohort (swing, day, scalp) treats them as the same line. CleaRank Pro unlocks the live multi-timeframe scoring, with each zone getting a 1–5 star strength rating and the exact price band to watch for entry triggers. Free shows you the single-timeframe levels only.
3. Swing visualizer : see the levels on the move
A vertical bar shows the full swing range with every Fibonacci level drawn as a horizontal dashed line. The current live price is plotted on the same bar, so you can see at a glance how deep the pullback already is. Below the bar, an inline narrative describes the current state. E.g. “Price is at 1.0925, 50% retraced, 30 pips above the 61.8% golden line and 70 pips below the swing high.” That sentence is the trade plan in plain English. No chart-library overhead, no platform login, just the levels and the math.

4. Extension targets : where to take profit
Once price breaks past the swing high (uptrend) or swing low (downtrend), retracement levels stop mattering and extension levels take over. The standard projections are 127.2%, 141.4%, 161.8% (the most-watched target), 200%, and 261.8%. The calculator shows each as an absolute price plus the implied R:R if you entered at the 61.8% retracement and placed your stop at the 78.6%. Entry, stop, target. The entire trade plan in three numbers.
5. Save Fib scenarios & reuse them across symbols
Save the swing high, swing low, trend, and timeframe under a memorable name (e.g. “EURUSD H4 golden long” or “XAUUSD D1 swing pullback”) and reload it in one click on any symbol. If you trade the same Fibonacci playbook across forex, gold, and BTC, this kills the repetitive setup cost. CleaRank Pro adds named scenarios with persistent storage; free users recalculate manually each time.

AI Fib Analysis · Verdict: Bullish · Strong
EUR/USD pulled back into the 61.8–78.6% golden zone after a strong impulse. Prior daily resistance at 1.0895 now flips to support. High-quality structural confluence. Long bias.
20-pip stop is inside the 22-pip 4H ATR. Won’t get knocked out by intraday noise. Wider than the 9-pip 1H ATR.
$200 risk = 2.0% of equity. 10 consecutive losses would draw the account down 18%. Survivable but uncomfortable.
6. AI Fib Analysis : market posture & trade scenarios in plain English
CleaRank Financial AI reads your full pip setup. Pair, account currency, size, balance, stop distance, and live ATR, and returns a verdict (Bullish · Strong / Over-Sized / Tight-Stop / Wide-Stop) with the reasoning written the way a desk head would talk it through. It flags whether your stop distance fits the pair’s typical 4H range, whether your dollar risk respects the 2% rule, and gives a pro tip on what to adjust. Particularly useful when the calculator says “$10/pip on 1 lot” and your inner gambler whispers “size up”. The AI tells you, in writing, what the math says about that idea before you click buy.
Anchor the swing: which high and which low actually count
Pullback traders, gold swing traders, USD-base retail accounts, or prop-firm challengers measuring everything in $ risk per trade. The pip-to-dollar math is the same idea but the conversions differ. Pick the workflow that matches yours.
Pullback traders
USD/JPY and GBP/JPY use a 0.01 pip instead of 0.0001. Get this wrong and your dollar-per-pip is off by 100×. The calculator gets it right every time.
Breakout traders
Catch 20–40 pip moves into the 38.2% or 50% retracement on 5m / 15m charts. Auto-Fill pulls the most recent swing from live OHLC so you never drag the tool manually.
Swing scalpers
XAU/USD pips and oil ticks need their own contract-spec lookup. The calculator handles per-instrument pip conventions so $/pip is always accurate.
Prop-firm risk managers
Funded accounts measure everything in $ risk per trade. Converting pip distance to exact dollar risk on the first try is the difference between passing and busting the daily cap.
When Fibonacci fails: three real reversal traps to avoid
Most traders eyeball the swing high and low when they drag the Fibonacci tool, then squint to read the level prices off the chart. That works for one symbol on one timeframe, but the second you want to compare the golden zone on EUR/USD daily against the 161.8% extension on the H4, or check whether the 78.6% on gold lines up with prior daily support, the manual approach falls apart. This calculator computes all 12 standard levels (7 retracements + 5 extensions) to 5 decimal places, marks the golden zone, projects R:R for each extension target, and auto-pulls live OHLC if you don’t want to type swing prices manually. Free, no login, works on every asset class.
It’s the same Fibonacci engine that runs inside the CleaRank trading workbench used by paying customers. Exposed here for free, no signup. CleaRank Pro adds Multi-Timeframe Fortress Zones (D1+H4+H1 confluence scoring), Save/Load Scenario across symbols, and persistent storage. Ultra adds AI Fib Analysis. A AI-grounded plain-English verdict covering market posture, golden-zone quality, full trade scenarios, and key risks.
Multi-timeframe Fibonacci confluence: where the strongest levels stack
Fibonacci retracement is a technical-analysis tool that marks the percentage levels where a pullback inside a trend is most likely to reverse. The percentages come from the Fibonacci sequence. 0%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%, 100%. With 61.8% (the golden ratio, φ) drawing the most attention because it represents the deepest pullback that still preserves the original trend structure. Extensions (127.2%, 161.8%, 200%, 261.8%) project where price might travel past the swing high or low once the trend resumes. Traders use them to plan entries (golden zone retracements), stops (just past 78.6% or 100%), and targets (161.8% is the most-watched extension). The math is mechanical; the discipline is using them only when there’s a clean swing.
“Pip value is the bridge between the chart and your account balance. Most traders pretend the bridge is solid, and most of them are wrong about how wide it is. The math takes 30 seconds; the surprise lasts a year.”
The Fibonacci retracement formula, in plain English
Three numbers do the work. The swing high is the highest price in the move. The swing low is the lowest. The range is high minus low. For an uptrend retracement, multiply the range by the Fibonacci percent and subtract from the swing high. For a downtrend, add to the swing low. For an extension, use a percent above 100 (e.g. 161.8%) and project beyond the swing.
Example: EUR/USD swing 1.1050 (H) → 1.0800 (L), range = 0.0250. The 61.8% retracement = 1.1050 − (0.0250 × 0.618) = 1.08955. The 161.8% extension = 1.1050 + (0.0250 × 0.618) = 1.11620. The calculator above runs this for all 12 standard levels in 50 milliseconds.
EUR/USD on USD account = $10/pip (no conversion). USD/JPY on USD account at 150 = $6.67/pip. Cross pairs need a triangular conversion.
Worked example : Fibonacci levels across 4 common swings
Four real swings across forex, JPY-cross, gold, and crypto. Each shows the swing range, the 61.8% golden entry price, and (for BTC) the 161.8% extension. Same formula, four asset classes. Fibonacci doesn’t care about decimals or contract size.
Notice that the golden entry on EUR/USD (1.08955) and on USD/JPY (150.825) are mathematically identical operations, just at different decimal scales. The same logic gives you $2,533 entry on gold and $83,441 target on BTC. The math is universal; the discipline is identifying the right swing to measure.
Fibonacci levels : quick reference (ratios, derivation, typical use)
The seven retracement levels plus the five extensions, with the mathematical derivation of each and the typical trading use. The 50% level isn’t strictly Fibonacci (it’s a Dow Theory halfway level) but traders watch it, so the calculator displays it. The golden zone (61.8–78.6%) is highlighted because that’s where pullback entries have the highest reversal probability.
Levels apply to any instrument. Forex, gold, oil, stocks, crypto, indices. The percentages don’t change; the absolute prices come from the swing high/low you plug in.
Five Fibonacci mistakes this calculator stops you making
Every trader has made these. The expensive ones make them every week and only spot the bleed when the equity curve doesn’t match the journal.
Assuming $10 per pip everywhere
“$10 per pip” only holds for EUR/USD-style pairs on a USD account. USD/JPY is $6.67. EUR/GBP from a USD account is ~$13. Use the wrong pip value and your stop-loss is calibrated to the wrong dollar risk on every trade.
Forgetting JPY pip is 0.01, not 0.0001
USD/JPY moves from 150.00 to 150.01 = 1 pip, not 100 pips. Misread the decimal and your “10-pip stop” is actually 1,000 pips wide. Meaning the trade is essentially un-stoppable until margin runs out.
Ignoring the cross-rate on non-USD pairs
EUR/GBP, AUD/NZD, GBP/JPY. None of these has USD in them, so a USD account needs a triangular conversion to get the real $/pip. Eyeballing it is off by 5–15%. The calculator pulls the live cross every refresh.
Mixing up lots and units
Using Fibonacci on a chart that’s ranging or chopping sideways. Fib only works on a clean impulsive move. If you can’t identify a clear swing high and swing low, the levels you draw are arbitrary and will fail. Skip the setup and wait for the next impulse.
Using pips for gold and oil
XAU/USD doesn’t have “pips” the same way EUR/USD does. Gold uses $0.01 per ounce per contract. Oil futures use $0.01 per barrel per contract. Treat them like forex pips and your risk math will be 10× off.
