Hi I got a 92 Accord an i wanna know what is the best Automatic fluid for my car?

For the most part there are only two standards for Automatic Transmission Fluid, and they are DEXRON-VI and MERCON.

Unless the car is highly specialised and requires specific non-hygroscopic fluids, then either of these are fine and can be picked up at any petrol station.

If I were you I would consult your owner's manual and follow their recommendations. I've done that with my '97 Civic and have had no problems.

HONDA ATF straight from the dealership

Honda ATF only. Honda Auto transmissions are a bit...different...they have certain oil requirements that will only be guranteed by Honda ATF.
