Premarket Power Bar Strategy

14시간 전

Step 1: Mark Your Levels Before the Open
When: Between 9:00–9:25 AM ET
Premarket High – the highest price before 9:30 AM
Premarket Low – the lowest price before 9:30 AM
Use extended hours view on your chart platform.
These levels act as magnets and turning points once the market opens. They form the foundation for your first trade of the day.


Step 2: Let Price Come to the Level
Do not chase early price action.
Wait for price to approach either the premarket high or low during regular market hours.
Look for a pause, hesitation, or test near the level.
This keeps you from overtrading and forces you to wait for structure to form.


Step 3: Watch for the Power Bar
A power bar is a large-bodied candle with strong momentum and little to no wick on the opposite side.
It should form directly at the premarket level—not near it, not after a breakout.
At the premarket low, a bullish power bar is your buy trigger.
At the premarket high, a bearish power bar signals a short opportunity.
No power bar? No trade. The level and the candle must come together to create the edge.
(BONUS: As you identify specific patterns, eg, double bottoms, double tops, etc. look for those patterns near the premarket high or low)


Step 4: Entry, Stop, and Target
Entry:
For longs: place your order just above the high of the bullish power bar
For shorts: enter just below the low of the bearish power bar
Stop:
Long trade: just under the low of the power bar
Short trade: just above the high of the power bar
Profit Target Options:
VWAP
Prior day’s close
Key support/resistance levels
Keep your trade logic mechanical and consistent.



Execution Guidelines
Only trade when price reacts at your marked level
Wait for the power bar to fully form before entering
Do not jump in early or chase candles that form away from your levels
