📍Advice on trading the Inside Bar
• Inside bars can have multiple inside bars within the mother candle, sometimes you’ll see 2, 3,4 inside bars within the same mother candle structure, it simply shows a longer period of consolidation, which often leads to a stronger breakout.
• Inside bars work best on the higher time frame.
• For swing trading, weekly inside bars work best.
• For breakout, when the mother candle is too big, one can place stop loss on the opening( for green candle) or closing basis (for red candle) of the mother candle.
• For breakdown, when the mother candle is too big, one can place the stop loss on the opening(for red candle) or closing basis( for green candle) of the mother candle.
• Use half quantity, when inside bar breakout/breakdown is given against the trend.
The Central Pivot Range is widely known as CPR. Traders can use it for intraday, swing, or positional trading
The CPR levels help traders to foresee the movements in stock prices & to predict the trend and also provide us with major support and resistance levels
📍How is CPR calculated?
The three levels of the CPR indicator and the formula for calculating them are listed below.
Pivot point = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Top Central Pivot Point (TC) = (Pivot – BC) + Pivot
Bottom Central Pivot Point (BC) = (High + Low) / 2
