Dear Thread,

Can you take a BKO of an IB that occurred a number of bars ago? That is to say, there was an IB, there was a BKO of that IB, but now price has retraced back into the range of the IB. Does this retracement make the subsequent BKO worse or is there no difference from the BKO of the original IB?

Thanks,

Lenoxer
What dose BKO means??
Never sell @ lower upward channel unless breacked and vise versa .

no trades taken today for me, spent most the day in the city yesterday so I ended up sleeping all night.

however, doesnt look like I missed anything so not kicking myself.

gbpjpy has a really good move going now, first trade would have been a free trade that broke even, followed by a big move that I would have cashed out early or trailed.

I'm starting to consider just watching the gbp/jpy pair and maybe gbp/usd to keep things simple, being the majority of my pips come from just those two.

BKO means breakout.

Thanks W., for considering the question.

Hi Lenoxer:

If you are saying that an IB broke out a few bars before, I guess that you're saying that you missed the original breakout.

With that being the case, and the IB flirting with the original entry point, I would consider this to be a low quality trade.

Ideally you would want the IB to really "breakout." If after a few bars the price is still at or near the entry, then you have a sideways market or a false breakout that could go against you.

Just my thoughts on your question.

Hey L, I asked the same question a few days ago and I think the majority of the answers were yes. I think the average response was up to 6 bars. I have personally taken trades like this with good results. That being said, if the PA moves away at a very fast pace and you missed the entry I would look for it come back and when it re-tests the level for the first time, it is usually a pretty solid trade.

Just my 2$.

If you were trading DIBS on this TF, you were stopped out before the run up.

Yeah, I was stopped on this pair and stopped out many times on other pairs cuz I took a lot of trades in both directions. Dumb moves on my part and I paid for it.
