Category:BDBU

Big Down, Big Up creates big confusion and usually leads to trading range. But occasionally can leads to a swing up when the timing and context is right, e.g. bar 55 to 65 on 20221216 was a BDBU pattern, but leads to a swing up at end of day, also end of week.

BDBU applies to important events like FOMC as well, for e.g. on 20230207 there was an important speech by FED chairman at 12:40 PM ET, market had a big BDBU in the afternoon, on the following day 20230208, market is pretty much in TR.
