Hi Divergence,

Do we wait for the close of the range bar to avoid false signals? I understand this gives a slightly less optimal price.

there is no spread in futures if we want to enter at 39.53 that's where we enter. in forex it would be 39. 55 or something like that

that trade you took almost paid off, but i was unsure what was going on, since the mkt made a high, then the downmove made a low, then it just hung in that area not really showing anything--so i was waiting for a break of either the high or low to see a direction
