Real average weekly earnings is the market indicator used in fundamental analysis. It is expressed in absolute terms and represents an index in relation to the previous period. The index slightly influences movement of prices, therefore, it is considered supplementary and can act as supportive to such indicators of fundamental analysis as major interest rates or non-farm. Real average weekly earnings accounts for inflation and is calculated in relation to 1982, which was conditionally taken for benchmark. Thus, this fundamental indicator can be considered as the inflation figure, which is caused by increase in earnings. Also it can perform as the indicator of rate consolidation: if increment of major interest rates of Central Bank is expected, then increase of earnings can tell about growth of national currency rate. Publication of data is made simultaneously with publication of Consumer Price Index at 8:30 a.m of New York time, regularly in the middle of every month.
Fibonacci Channel represents a sort of Fibonacci Retracement, but this time all trend lines are drawn diagonally and not horizontally. Drawn channels can serve as supportive or resistance lines. Fibonacci Channel is built with a common method: the line is put through trend's High and Low, this line composes entire width of channel and its value is taken as equal to one. Further, parallel lines are drawn through obtained channels through the levels 23,6%, 38,2%, 50%, 61,8%, 76,4%, 100%, 161,8%, 261,8%, 423,6%. It is assumed that resulting lines can serve as support or resistance lines as well as pivot or correction points of a trend.
