More on Overnight 50 Retracements
More backtesting on this.
Weds last week: opened just below the overnight 50 and hit it in the first minute and eventually retraced to it after a breakout at 11.55 am (5 min candle):
Light purple is midnight open, dark purple is RTH, white is midnight open NYT and 830 news drop, blue line is overnight 50 fib.Tuesday (11/22) last week, just missed the 50 by a tick, but was very close. Short off open targeting the 50 was the trade despite the gap up. Got to the 50 in about 10 minutes (2nd 5 min candle).

Tuesday Nov 29 — overnight 50 tagged during the 10.25am 5 min candle:
Monday Nov 28 — overnight 50 tagged immediately off opening 5 min candle. This left a large FVG below, which i ignored to my detriment and got smoked going long on the retracement:

Overnight flush or rips.
This has to be remembered. They both retraced to the over night 50. Yesterday, then today. $SPY 395s went from 62c to 1.34. Man, you gotta HODL.
