Now that we have a good understanding of the patterns, we need
to understand the meaning of the fib expansion tool.

When the Fib is placed on the chart, double click and edit the
settings. The current setting I have are as follows:

These values can be changed by the user insode the EA settings.


I have changed the SL to 3 and have added a “Quick” level to take
quick profits manually on added positions.
My “Quick” level has been set to 1.5.

Our fib is now set up. Lets dive into how it is placed around all
of the patterns.
Pg: 11
THE BLUE BEAST
Fib Expansion Placement
The fib will be placed on the open and close of the candles or “Bodies”. Place the cross hair on the open of the
pattern, click and drag the cross hair to the close of the next candle. The levels will expand out and give you the
HotBox Area, SL, Bailout and TP levels.

THE BLUE BEAST
The HotBox Entry
Now we have recognized the patterns and placed our fib tool, we look for an entry based on the HotBox Area
in the fib. The HotBox is the area from the open to the 50% level of the 2 candles (depending on the pattern).
I have highlighted the area in blue.

Enter Sell @ close


of candle

Enter Buy @ close


of candle

The first chance PRICE moves into the HotBox, we have a signal. The candle that breached the HotBox area
MUST close the opposite direction of the signal AND outside of the HotBox.
*Bullish candle close outside HotBox = Sell.
*Bearish candle close outside HotBox = Buy.

Random Flip*:
The Random Flip will not utilize the HotBox Area. After the
2nd cndle closes the trade will be placed with SL.

THE BLUE BEAST
The HotBox Entry
IF a candle penetrates the HotBox area and closes inside the HotBox
then the trade is CANCELLED.

If the signal is for a buy and the candle that enters the HotBox closes
bullish, then the trade is CANCELLED. This is also the case for a sell
signal, but with a bearish candle.

This number can be rounded up to the nearest pip.

at 16.1 pips or 17.
