1% Day

30th April 2010: ES final PoC outside BF range after 6/6 overlap in G = 1% day

Notes:

• B power buy failed to get HV
• Wide IB after breakdown in C (HTF balance structure had potential for failure near top of range)
• 6 overlap in G after recovery from below PDL / wide IB - However, though double distribution odds now very low (~1%) , the tpo count was strong (decent pot size) and the location was good for a short if reasoned HMF

Changing Game (BGO)

2007- June 2009: Identify the direction of the day and go with. Capitalize on the market's tendency to expand both directionally and in time.

Post June 2009: Overlap dominant theme. Price away from value (ppoc) is opportunity.

A strong afternoon breakout after a weak TPO count in the morning is a rare event (but not impossible).
