February 4 - MUR - LLY


MUR
Entry criteria
- First bar is at the PDH but it is a doji (potential reversal)
- Second bar partially fills the lower wick and closes below PDH
- 5 DMA offers additional resistance
- 2nd ard 3rd bars are inside bars

Entered at the break of the 2nd bar low and exited at $44.00 (round number near RZ)



LLY
Entry criteria:
- 3rd touch of the $38.50 (base)
- 2 bars prior to trigger bar build momentum
- Doji is (in my observation) bot a reversal and a continuation pattern depending on the placement in the chart. See this post on Doji

Entered at the low of the doji and exited at RZ

Are you using some scanner for the NRIB's. Nice NRIB's in MUR.

Congrats!

Thanks Anon.
Yes, I use StrategyDesk as a scanner.

Mind sharing what particular scanner do you run to get these setups?

anarco said...

StrategyDesk is a free utility if you have a TD Ameritrade account.

I meant, what scan do you run - conditions to get these setups.

anarco said...

I scan for IBs on my Watch List. IB is a bar in which the low and the high of the current bar is within the previous bar.
