That’s not to say that every inside bar trade will be a winner once you know how to trade them properly, but you need to at least make sure you are putting yourself in a position to make money with the inside bar pattern. There is much more significance with a daily chart inside bar than one on a lower time frame because it ‘smooths’ over all that sideways chop and consolidation on the 4 hour and 1 hour (or lower) charts and represents it simply in the form of one inside bar pattern or inside day. If you look at the two images below you will see the power of the daily chart and why I only trade inside bars on the daily chart time frame.
