Dummy Gapper Trade of the Day - Apple Inc. (Public, NASDAQ:AAPL)

AAPL gaps wide and quickly takes out the ORH and R2. 4/15 NRIB (narrow range inside bar) on lower volume is the trigger bar. I was actually hoping for a second IB, but it looked good on the 5 minute so I took it. Book a partial as price approaches 38% Fib. extension of the previous day low to the ORH. Stopped out on balance as price dips below the 38% Fib. retracement of the ORL to the morning swing high.

Hi !
10x. Excellent blog ! Keep going !
My Q is about recent AAPL trade. "4/15 NRIB (narrow range inside bar) on lower volume is the trigger bar" What does mean 4/15 ?

Thank you in advance, Goga

Goga,

Thanks, 4/15 is short for "the fourth 15 minute bar".
