Let’s take a look at each one in complete detail so there is nothing left to guess work. We

will start by looking at both the NR4 and IB and then move into looking at the HVR.

This seems to be the most logical progression in this case.

The NR4/IB Set Up

The NR4/IB set up is a combination of a narrow range bar that is the smallest of the last four bars while at the same time is an inside bar against the previous bar.

Let’s look at each component and bring it together so you can easily identify this set up.

(NR4Narrow Range 4 Bar: (above) A NR4 is a bar with the smallest range of the

previous four bars to include the current bar.



 

 

IBInside Bar: An inside bar is a bar where as the high is equal to or lower

than the prior bars high and the low is equal to or higher than the prior low. It’s

important to note here that only the high OR the low can be equal to the prior high

or low – not both. It’s crucial that either the high or low be inside of the prior range.

 

 


(NR4/IBNarrow Range 4 Inside Bar: (above) To have an Inside Bar Narrow Range

the current bar has to be a combination of both a NR4 and Inside Bar as describe above.
