Which description fits the pullbacks?

  1. Each pullback erased the prior rise.
  2. The later pullback ended higher.
  3. Both pullbacks ended at 96.
Reveal the answer

B. The later pullback ended higher.

Compare the trough closes after 99 and 102. The first is 96 and the second is 99. This describes the sequence already on the page; the next low is unknown.

Challenge 06 / 20

A wick above resistance

Eleven synthetic 15-minute candles. Closing prices 96, 98, 99, 98, 96, 98, 99, 98, 99, 98, 99. Dashed guide at 100. Final high 103.6, low 97.8.

Which claim does the last candle support?

  1. It closed above 100.
  2. It traded above 100 and closed below.
  3. Buyers will control the next candle.
Reveal the answer

B. It traded above 100 and closed below.

The upper wick reaches above the dashed guide. The body ends at 99. That establishes an excursion above the level without a close above it.

Challenge 19 / 20

Wick or body?

Eleven synthetic 15-minute candles. Closing prices 102, 101, 102, 101, 102, 101, 102, 101, 102, 101, 102. Dashed guide at 100. Final high 102.5, low 96.8.

A paper rule triggers only on a close below 100. Did the last bar trigger it?

  1. Yes, the low crossed 100.
  2. No, the close stayed at 102.
  3. Yes, the open was below 100.
Reveal the answer

B. No, the close stayed at 102.

The rule tests the closing value. The low crossed the guide but the body ended above it. A low-based rule would produce a different result.
