Fibonacci Time Ratios is a tool that sets time lines on the chart, the distance between them is based on Fibonacci sequence. The lines are used to forecast potential reversals based on elapsed time. It's same as Fibonacci Timezone with the only difference that Fibonacci Time Ratios show labels according to Fibonacci sequence. 

Fibonacci Time Ratios are drawn by two extreme points that make up a trendline. To add Fibonacci Time Ratios to the chart, click its name or the iconfibonacci_time_ratioson the Drawings Panel. Specify an initial point on the chart (high/low) to start drawing a trendline, then specify the second point to place the time lines.
