In fact, (don’t tell anyone this) a good price action trader knows how to set up and analyze his or her charts so well that they may not even need a price action “pattern” or “signal” for a trade entry. You will see what I’ve drawn in below on the chart, these are the levels I view as the most relevant as well as the areas of consolidation and trending price action, these are the first things I am looking for when I do my price action analysis… Now, whilst this would be considered a “counter-trend” pin bar, which usually i don’t like, since it was at an important level we already had on the chart, and there was a clear target below at the previous breakout level of 1212.00 area, savvy price action traders could have considered a short-term trade targeting a move into that level.
