Hiltzy 12 Posted July 1, 2020 (edited) Who Am I?: My name is John and I am the newest member of Bear Bull Trader's Leadership Team. My favorite trade is the High-of-Day Break. In fact, they make up over 90% of my trades. Purpose: To share my High-of-Day break trades and discuss the reasoning for my entries, partials, and exits. Note: Check out my original presentation on High-of-Day break trading.

ryan Rockwood 2 Posted July 6, 2020 This is very interesting. Thanks for sharing. I'm new as well and haven't come across this strategy. I gather the strategy can be described as follows: Watch for high of the day as established by the 1 minute chart. Watch for increased trade volume and a quick punch through the high. Enter the trade expecting the price to increase temporarily and get out quickly. Did I miss anything significant? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hiltzy 12 Posted July 6, 2020 Ryan, that's about right in a nut shell. But check out the attached PDF file at the top of this post. It has tons of information on this strategy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For example is it always the 1st or 1-5 high of the day, etc? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hiltzy 12 Posted July 6, 2020 Does not have to be the first HOD. If have used this strategy for 3 green trades on a single stock in a day. But it works easiest (generally) from about 9:45 - 11:30 EST. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just a running list of stocks in the $100-$300 range that trade well for HOD breaks. Some usual suspects are FB, BYND, NVDA, ROKU, ZM, AAPL, BABA, MSFT, etc. I look for where there is good volume for the day.

Bo Trailblazor 7 Posted July 8, 2020 THIS is really cool. thank you. I am not trading these because psychologically they feel like chasing to me, but cool to see they work. is there any material that you watched on these to give you confidence to take them? or is this a proven strategy that others have known about for a while? thanks again!

I definitely feel what you are saying. I hear good traders call out longs and shorts. When I look at the chart I can't see what they are seeing. Such a weird part of trading. But cool that there are so may ways to make money. I've never seen this trade described in material anywhere. But it sort of shares aspects of other strategies. For example, it is kind of like getting in late to an ABCD trade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
