US Open Breakout Strategy

  1. Rules to Buy:
    1. Take the highest high and the lowest low form 8:30 am to 9:00 am Eastern time. Draw horizontal lines showing where those levels are.

    2. Check Market Depth to look for either a 2:1 imbalance favoring the BID or neutral bid/offer balance. If not, stand aside and wait for either of these two conditions.

    3. On a 1 minute chart, buy the break above the range high with a stop below the range low.

    4. Take the width in pips of the range and use that as your profit target.

    5. Place your stop 2 pips below the range low.
