| == Probability ==

| *'''80% of days''', market test support or resistance in '''1st 90 minutes (bar 18)''', and the '''reversal often creates high or low of day.'''
| |
| *'''80% of days''' with strong rally on the open have minor reversal down lasting '''at least 5 bars (typically 5-10 bars, i.e. a TBTL correction)'''<ref>https://www.brookstradingcourse.com/trade-price-action/video-48a-trading-the-open/</ref>.
| |
| *'''80% of days''', the market opens have ''(at least a '''minor)''''' '''reversals''' (''Opening Reversal, indicating the end of the trend from the open''), which also means '''Trend From The Open lasting all day only 20% of day ''(i.e. once every week on average)'''''<ref>''https://www.brookstradingcourse.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/181030-futuresio-Patterns-on-the-Open-Al-Brooks.pdf'' </ref><ref>''https://www.brookstradingcourse.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/171017-Futures.io-Presentation-Opening-Reversals-Al-Brooks.pdf''</ref>.

| *'''50% of days''', the market has a '''major reversal''' on the open, no matter how strong the initial BO looks like, '''however at the same time, notice that by the close of 2nd bar closing near its low, 60% chance of MM down from the open of 1st bar to the close of the final bar of the bear BO (in bear case)'''<ref>''[https://www.brookstradingcourse.com/bonus-videos/trading-patterns-on-the-open/ Bonus Video 02: Trading Patterns on the Open]''</ref>.

| == Things to Look for Higher Probability of a Successful Reversal ==
| |
| *''For it to become a successful reversal, '''the single most important thing to look for is''' '''whether the initial move is climatic''' (for e.g. parabolic wedge). Examples can be found here: [[Encyclopedia:Sell Climax on the Open, Then Reversal Up]]. In another words, if you are looking for an ORV entry, you will want the initial move on the open to be strong, not weak, for e.g. [[20230403]].''
| |
| *''If it is to become a successful reversal, take bear case as example, it usually starts with a Double Bottom(or DT) or Wedge Bottom(or WT). This also means that if the initial move is not clearly climatic, traders should look for strong patterns like DT or Wedge Top at resistance (for e.g. HOY/LOY) after a good gap up.''
| |
| *''When the context is right, the chance of a successful reversal can increase to '''60% or higher'''. For e.g. if the open has a very strong selloff for 18 bars, and market forms a possible consecutive parabolic wedge bottom, and there is a huge bear bar late in the bear trend, there is 60% chance of a successful bull reversal or one more leg down and then reversal. See example in [[Gap Up and Sell Climax, Then Reversal Up]]. '''However note that''' while the climactic selling pressure on the open can increase the chance of a strong reversal, it has 60% chance one more brief leg down before reversal up, see [https://www.papals.live/images/thumb/4/49/Screenshot_2023-01-17_at_22-16-41_The_Brooks_Encyclopedia_of_Chart_Patterns_Brooks_Trading_Course.png/1200px-Screenshot_2023-01-17_at_22-16-41_The_Brooks_Encyclopedia_of_Chart_Patterns_Brooks_Trading_Course.png example chart].''
| |
| *''Factors that can '''increase''' the probability of a successful reversal: (which increases the probability that the selloff on the open is some kind of profit taking or vacuum effect v.s. beginning of a strong bear trend)''
| |
| *#''yesterday was a bullish day (sign of climactic)''
| |
| *#''gap up on open (sign of climactic)''
| |
| *#''the sell climax from the open has big bars or consecutive sell climaxes, indicating more bears probably get exhausted (sign of climactic)''
| |
| *#''good looking entry bar and FT, especially when the reversal comes from major support levels, such as LoY, HoY, etc.''
| |
| *#''PB after the entry bar looks weak for the bears, some scalping bears might sell the 1st reversal at EMA and the results will be a PB, the PB '''should not''' take out the low of the entry bar''
| |
| *#''other minor details such as gaps, tick gaps, etc.''
| |
| *''Factors that can '''decrease''' the probability of a successful reversal:''
| |
| *#''the sell climax itself is a [[SPBRT]], which might indicate less exhausted bears, hence decrease the strength of bull reversal (if there is a reversal attempt).''
| |
| *#''the first reversal fails immediately at EMA and PB to entry bar which then take out the entry bar (this time trader may consider reversing into short), the market usually has 1 more leg down. (after that, 20% bull reversal, 60% or more, you get a TR on the lower half day range)''
| |
| *#''the entry bar doesn't have good closes or the FT bar looks weak, traders need to be aware of possible [[SPBRT]].''
| |
| *#''other minor details such as lacking of gaps, tick gaps, etc.''
| |
| | |
| === Initial Selloff Matters ===
| |
| *If the initial selloff is 25%-50% of average range, then often get big bull trend after the reversal; if it is 50%-100% of average range, then usually get TR day, even if big rally. '''This is true for all reversals, not just on the open.'''
