Traders have been using these retracements for years to help identify them price sup- port and resistance. But Fibonacci retracements are just a beginner’s appli- cation of these important ratios for trading. It is how you use them in different trading situations that is important. In addition, there are other geometric and harmonic ratios that are equally important that you will learn about in this book. What most traders have never been taught is how to use these ratios for support and resistance time targets in the same manner as they are used for price targets. When you combine Fibonacci time and price pro- jections as part of a trading plan, you should have a powerful approach to identifying trade opportunities. I don’t think there is anyone who is more qualified to teach you about Fibonacci time and price trading strategies than the FibQueen herself (aka Carolyn Boroden). I first met Carolyn in 1989 at the first Gann-Elliott Magazine (since evolved into Traders World magazine) conference in Chicago. She was one of the first people to study my Gann Home Study Trading Course, which was first released at that conference. But she wasn’t new to the financial markets and trading in 1989. Unlike most trading educators, Carolyn has spent her entire adult life working with the financial markets, from floor runner as a teenager to fund advisor to day-trading mentor. While she has been a relentless student of the markets, she has also had years of practical experience in almost every phase of the trading business. vii Copyright © 2008 by Carolyn Boroden.

In 1993, I convinced her to move to Tucson to work with me. She was soon wooed away by an offer to provide analysis and trade strategies for a fund for a whole lot more money than I was paying her, but we have remained friends and associates ever since. She has been a student of my Dynamic Trading methods for almost 20 years and has used my Dynamic Trading software, which you will see in this book, since Version 1 was released in 1997. There is no better exam- ple of a relationship in which the “student becomes the teacher” than that of Carolyn and me. In recent years, I’ve learned as much from her as she did from me in the early years, especially about her symmetry setups and trade strategies, which you will learn in this book. I’m very proud to have been her mentor in the early years and her friend forever, and I know that her book, which you hold in your hands, will be one of your most valuable reference books for your business of trading.
