    I am documenting only the Bennett style trades. I also use Market Profile and OR b/o. I use 15 minutes as OR for corn.

    And working on cheat sheets and weekly overviews using STOPD principles, using LC’s formats.

    Currently short (scalped some) on OR break out. But no BBO (Bennett Break Out) trade yet. We have two higher lows, but they are equal lows. Ok. Bar 13is the qualifying bar. 595 is the swing low.

    BBO triggered. 597.50 is top of R.

    Closed the trade on Bar 44. Scratch.

    Just as well. 1/2 R stop would have been hit. 1R stop has not been hit yet. I suspect that would also hit if there is a third push up here. Beans and wheat are strong today.

    1R stop would have given us the 1R:PT at Bar 94! I am currently short from 595 and scaled out at the AM low of 593. Market stalled around VWAP. Probably due to dollar strength, as wheat and Beans are fading too, though still green.

    All out at AH low+1 tick.

    I think it is best not to mix my other trades here. BBO is quite close to a simple, mechanical method. Worth testing it going forward.

    I don’t anticipate making any further posts here. I wish you all a healthy year ahead, full of profitable trades. Be well.
