Talking Fibonacci Time Extensions....

Here is a simple enhancement idea for the Fibonacci Time Extensions tool that would be easy to do and dramatically improve the usefulness of that tool....add optional check boxes to extend vertical timing lines above and / or below the diagonal trend set-up line.

A short video on this...

More format boxes for additional vertical lines would be quite helpful here also...perhaps double what you have now.

Screen shot below from another program that has this feature...very useful...

This suggestion is a redo of the original posted in 2009....(before Ninja had tracking numbers)...

Thanks...

Smile One More Chart...

Below is another example of truncating the Extension lines at the ends of the Major Trend...you can see how one can keep track of 3 different cycle measurements when vertical lines are truncated...one could not do this as the tool stands now...this suggestion seems like a simple programming thing to do....

Smile One more thing....

One more thing...have options in properties to extend Timing lines above or below the Major Trend set up line in addition to the truncating at the Major Trend option...

Talking Yet more ideas to consider for this area...

Have noticed when expanding small numbers from ones initial Anchor line... by say 200, 300 to 400% +/- ...that the results are not all that accurate graphically with only one decimal place allowable in the Properties Percentage formatting boxes...culd there possibly be 3 or 4 decimal places allowable there ??...other chart programs allow this additional level of accuracy and the graphic results are very precise that way.

also...in using the Anchor line as a horizontal line graphically to keep the chart clean ...what about allowing the vertical lines to be set X ticks above and below the Anchor line (as an option) whether the Anchor line is sloping or not...again, this would enable one to more easily see which set of vertical lines belong to which Anchor line.

And only 10 Percentage format boxes are clearly just not enough to work with...closer to 18 or 20 boxes or so would be much much better.

Thanks...
