    here's a hint if you're not a TA person

    The most common retracement percentage in stock prices after an uptrend is broken is typically around 50%.
    While Fibonacci retracement levels include several key percentages, the 50% retracement level is widely regarded as a significant and frequently observed level for price reversals. Here's why:
    1. The 50% retracement is considered a key level in technical analysis, even though it's not strictly a Fibonacci ratio[1][3].
    2. Many traders use the 50% level because of the tendency of asset prices to continue in a particular direction after retracing about half of the previous move[3].
    3. The 50% level often acts as a strong support or resistance area, where prices may pause or reverse[1].
    4. It's seen as a "midpoint" retracement, making it psychologically significant for traders and investors.
    5. While other Fibonacci levels like 38.2% and 61.8% are also important, the 50% level is easier to calculate and visualize, contributing to its popularity[1][3].
