Would the bearish engulf not have put you off the buy? Or did you still see this as a possible bullish run due to the bullish hourly candle's high after it breaking the bearish open? Just intrigued. Before this strategy I would have 100% thought a bearish run would occur with that Huge bearish engulf

i see a number of new members starting to post now. if they have made less than 6 posts, it will not appear immediately. it will be like a couple of hours late. so i may miss some of the posts. try to make more than 6 posts.
Is 6 posts the limit for moving from a junior member to member? My posts need approving currently and it's taking ages

see the previous h4 impulse move up?
this will outweigh any h1 bearishness, at least temporarily.

Ah I see. I can see the zone has been tested many times and still held strong for a buy. When would you consider the H4 engulf to be invalid though? Most recent H4 candles have closed lower than what would be the marked zone. Or would it be as simple as a strong bearish H4 candle closing way below?

4h bear engulf price coming back. Trendlines to limit the rise.
Trading is gambling. So gamble responsibly.

a h4 close below the engulf would invalid it.
however you have to be aware are there any other higher than h4 engulf in the vicinity that is opposite in direction to it.

many other reasons for the drop, depending on which school of thoughts you come from.

you can have 2 choices.
enter when touch.
or go to lower time frames, even m1 or seconds to find engulf.
it is all fractals. every time frames you can find engulf.
but the choice is made by the one that click the mouse at what ever time frames he likes to use.
