*if a bar is exceptionally bigger than other bars(i.e. surprise bar), 70% chance of MM, especially when it has ok FT (at least doji).<ref>[[:Category:Exceptionally Big Bar|Category:Exceptionally Big Bar]]</ref><ref>[[Always in Short]]</ref>

*probability of success of 70 percent or better (reward has to be '''at least half as big as risk''' just to break even):
**Scalps, but since most traders cannot consistently pick trades with a 70 percent chance of success, they should trade a scalp only if the reward is at least as large as the risk. '''For example, if you believe that a two-point stop is needed in the Emini, take the trade only if at least a two-point reward is reasonable'''<ref>TR book, chapter 25</ref>.

**Buying a '''high 2 pullback to the moving average''' in a bull trend.
**Selling a '''low 2 pullback to the moving average''' in a bear trend.
**Buying a '''wedge bull flag pullback''' in a bull trend.
**Selling a '''wedge bear flag pullback''' in a bear trend.
**Buying a '''breakout pullback''' '''from a breakout of a bull flag''' in a bull trend.
**Selling a '''breakout pullback''' '''from a breakout of a bear flag''' in a bear trend.
**Buying a '''high 1 pullback in a strong bull spike''' in a bull trend, but not after a buy climax.
**Selling a '''low 1 pullback in a strong bear spike''' in a bear trend, but not after a sell climax.
**Shorting at the top of a trading range, especially if it is a second entry.
**Buying at the bottom of a trading range, especially if it is a second entry.
**Trend reversals: 
***After a strong break of the trend line, look for a reversal '''after a test of the trend's extreme''' where there is a good reversal signal bar. Traders are looking to buy a higher low or a lower low at a bottom, or to short a higher high or a lower high at a top.<ref>''note that the 60% probability here is based on 1:1 RR as mentioned at the beginning, if 2:1 RR i.e. a swing, the probability will be around only 40%: https://www.brookstradingcourse.com/price-action/10-best-price-action-trading-patterns/#1-major-trend-reversals''</ref>
***Strong final flag reversal.
***Buying a third or fourth push down in a [[bear stairs pattern]] for a test of the low of the prior push down.
***Selling a third or fourth push up in a [[bull stairs pattern]] for a test of the high of the prior push up.
**'''Entering using limit orders'''; this requires more experience reading charts, because the trader is entering in a market that is going in the opposite direction to the trade. However, experienced traders can reliably use limit or market orders with these setups: 
***'''Buying a bull spike''' in a strong bull breakout at the market or at the close of the bar, or on a limit order [[at or below the low of the prior bar]]<ref>''if the market falls to the low of the prior bar, is this still a reliable strong bull spike? 7-25-2022, paul''</ref> (entering in spikes requires a wider stop and the spike happens quickly, so this combination is difficult for many traders).
***'''Selling a bear spike''' in a strong bear breakout at the market or at the close of the bar, or on a limit order at or above the high of the prior bar (entering in spikes requires a wider stop and the spike happens quickly, so this combination is difficult for many traders).
***Buying a bear breakout at around a measured move, if the breakout is not too strong—for example, if the range is about four points tall in the Emini, buying on a limit order at four points below the range, risking four points, and expecting a test of the breakout point. Only very experienced traders should consider this.
***Selling a bull breakout at around a measured move, if the breakout is not too strong—for example, if the range is about four points tall in the Emini, selling on a limit order at four points above the range, risking four points, and expecting a test of the breakout point. Only very experienced traders should consider this.
***Buying at or below a low 1 or 2 weak signal bar on a limit order in a possible new bull trend after a strong reversal or at the bottom of a trading range.
***Shorting at or above a high 1 or 2 weak signal bar on a limit order in a possible new bear trend after a strong reversal or at the top of a trading range.
***Buying at or below the prior bar on a limit order in a quiet bull flag at the moving average.
***Shorting at or above the prior bar on a limit order in a quiet bear flag at the moving average.
***Buying below a bull bar that breaks above a bull flag, anticipating a breakout pullback.
***Selling above a bear bar that breaks below a bear flag, anticipating a breakout pullback.
