Grade=F
The setup: ORB
The result: I bought at the top of the opening range, but it was a bad idea. There was no consolidation from the previous day to work with to provide power for such a move. It was definitely over-extended, lowering the probability of this supposed setup.
The lesson: When looking to trade an ORB, I should consider consolidation or over-extension from the previous day alon with volume, float size and general momentum.
