This week's price action displayed as 30R (7.50 pt range) candles.

The green highlights mark a bar that made a lower high & lower low, traded its range faster than the bar before and closed at or above its midpoint.

Some of these are typical h1 buy signal/pin bars.

Although that one in the middle I probably wouldnt have paid that much attention to considering the bear trend and the upcoming L1 bar

Which lead into 3 push down, DB/Micro DB, H2 buy signal/pin bar. Just imagine if you rode that all the way up.

Could definitely apply a simple trend filter to this occurrence but right now I am trying to keep the signal as simple as possible. Basically searching for sell stops being hit creating a momentary imbalance that is followed by a rush of buy orders.

Since these are range bars it makes it a little difficult for manual trading, especially with having to monitor both price and the velocity of price, but just entering at the close of the signal bar with a stop 1 tick below the low is workable.
