Today FDAX opened in prior day HL range and stayed in this range during IB. IB OC is short. Prior days were green.

Exit 13:30 @ 15500

Let’s see


For FESX, a long trade 10:00-11:30 looks ok. Just watching it.

Today FDAX opened in prior day HL range and the IB ended above this range. IB OC is long.

Doesn’t look good for a trade.

Also not for FESX.

Doesn’t look good for a trade.

Also not for FESX.

Exit 11:00 @ 15547

Wednesday

Today FDAX opened inside prior day HL range (no gap) and IB ended inside prior day’s HL range. IB OC is short 6pts.

DAX Long trade
Entry 11:00 @ 15671
Exit 13:00 @ 15682
SL 42 pts
Result 11 pts

Historical results with this setup:
205 pts (18 trades/win% 67%)

67% win is the minimum for 18 trades, but it's supported by other filters. Let’s see


For FESX, not good enough.
