• Bar 4 - Outside bar surrounded by inside bars, ok swing buy or long or sell or short, but sell or short better since yesterday = trading range day = magnet. Better to wait
• Bar 5 - Big breakout, more down. Always in short, tqb bear
• Bar 7 - Breakout, more down. Alternating bull and bear bars so probably bear leg in trading range
• Bar 8 - Breakout test or bought, but near bottom of yesterday 74 trading range so might bounce soon. Stop above 5, maybe 6 or 7
• Bar 9 - Or, but probably sellers at the high of the bar and probably scaling in higher for test 74 low
• Bar 11 - Close on low, more down
