Trades generally work better if they are initiated before the trend becomes too obvious. This is also true for trades entered in the first 15-45 minutes of the session. Many traders are sitting on their thumbs in the early going, waiting for a flash of inspiration. What they often get instead is an opening range that, far from inspiring, becomes the basis for second-guessing each other for the remainder of the day. During this class, the emphasis was on using Hidden Pivot entry tactics not long after the opening bell. This was an unusually good day to have attempted such trades, as you shall see. There are also some closely reasoned ‘mechanical’ and ‘counterintuitive’ set-ups for your consideration.
