The 50% Retrace Entry (also called the 50% pullback entry) is a classic trading technique that involves entering a trade when price retraces 50% of a previous strong move (impulse leg). It is based on the idea that markets often retrace half of a move before continuing in the original direction.

✅ What is the 50% Retracement?

It refers to entering a trade at the halfway point of a recent:

Bullish impulse move (for buy entries)
Bearish impulse move (for sell entries)

The 50% level is not a Fibonacci number, but it’s widely used by professional traders due to its reliability in trending markets.

🔼 Bullish 50% Retrace Entry

Identify a strong bullish move (large bullish candle or impulsive leg).
Measure from the swing low to swing high.
Wait for the price to retrace to the 50% level.
Look for confirmation (e.g. bullish candle or pin bar).
Enter a long trade near the 50% level.
Stop-loss below swing low, target near previous high or 1.618 extension.

🔽 Bearish 50% Retrace Entry

Identify a strong bearish move (large bearish candle or impulsive leg).
Measure from the swing high to swing low.
Wait for price to retrace to the 50% level.
Look for bearish signal (e.g. rejection wick or engulfing).
Enter short near 50%.
Stop-loss above swing high, target new low or extension.
