So, this is by NQ Stats. The guy’s name’s Chris. I posted this in the Discord last night. Basically, uh, we basically break the first hour of the market. So 9:30 to 10:30 is broken 83% of the time before 12:00 p.m. But now which way is it going

To break? So basically, if the IB closed in the upper half of the range, the high of the IB was broken 81% of the time. And if we close in the lower half of the range, the low was broken 74% of the time. Interesting stat, right? So I decided to take a look at it today. The high of the range is up here at 713. The bottom is down here at uh 518. And sure enough, we close right here, which is

In the lower half of the range. And what happens? We end up trading and making a new low. That’s what he was talking about. I actually like this. But the thing is, you can’t just randomly buy. So, I’m going to look into this. I’m most likely going to buy when we invert a fair value gap to the downside. So on the five I would have got in here or you know maybe I zoom in on the one and look for an

Entry. Um right here we invert to the downside right here and uh that’s kind of where I would probably take it. Um it was interesting. It’s an interesting stat especially when trading. Um, but we we caught some great trades today. I caught the uh we caught this one live on the stream. Actually, we caught this was a five minute inversion. We retested right here and then we caught it on the way up. So, we caught this big move. Uh, we caught

Some other great moves, too. We caught this downside flush on the stream. Um, and there was a ton of chop today. It wasn’t the best price action. Not going to sit here and say it was great, but there was definitely moves that we had. And then, um, yeah, I mean, we traded back down into this uh, FBG in inversion overlay, popped right out of that, and we had that run the last 30 seconds of the market, which I got also. So,

Uh, things were good. The drift play hit today. Um, yeah, overall it was a good day. I hope you guys had a good day.
