Using a fixed position will keep the header element in the same place regardless of whether the user scrolls. Absolute positioning may cause other elements to overlap and relative positioning may cause the header to move out of view. Fluid positioning is not related to keeping an element fixed at the top of the page. Therefore, fixed positioning is the best choice for Wes's requirement.
