I did trade today, and missed a lot of opportunities. But I caught PLXS, which was another "U" set-up.
Price gapped up, fell to the retracement zone which provided support, and rallied from there. The third and fourth bars printed higher lows and higher highs, and I entered on a break of the fourth bar high*. The target was the Fibonacci extension of the previous day's low to the OR high, and it was hit two bars later.
*as with any entry below/above a previous high/low (in the case of my charts, the opening range (OR) high/low), you need to watch for resistance/support as price approaches those levels. If it stalls, you want to exit. If it breaks through, the odds are good you will have a move to the corresponding Fibonacci extension.
