What is a Premium or Discount?
For high probabilities set-ups, we want price to be in the best area's as possible. To gain probability, in our trading, we are using the Fibonacci tool to see if price is in Premium or Discount.
To calculate if price is in, premium or discount, we use the Fibonacci tool and connect it to the swing high and low.
We buy in Discount and sell in Premium.
