NQ: if the first 1h of RTH closes above the 9:30am open, there's a ~79% chance of a green day*
And if the first 1h is red, there's a ~69% chance of a red day*
(*3 year lookback)
How does this hold up to the last month, for example?
11/10: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
11/11: π΄1h, π’dayβ
11/12: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ
11/13: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ
11/14: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
11/17: π’1h, π΄dayβ
11/18: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ
11/19: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
11/20: π’1h, π΄dayβ
11/21: π΄1h, π’dayβ
11/24: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
11/25: π΄1h, π’dayβ
11/26: π΄1h, π’dayβ
11/27: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
11/28: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
12/01: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
12/02: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
12/03: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
12/04: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ
12/05: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
12/08: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ
12/09: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ
Overall, 16/22 days (~73%) followed the RTH 1st hour to daily close correlation
Days with a green 1st hour were successful 11/13 times (~85%),
And days with a red 1st hour were just 4/9 times (~44%)
Another piece of information that might be useful in this analysis is the size of the 1st hour candle - aka how far the 1st hour relative to its open - since you could imagine, if the 1st hour closed 1% from its open, there's probably a slimmer chance that it completely reverses by EOD, compared to a day whose 1st hour closed say just 0.01% from its open
Here's the same data with the opening candle sizes:
11/10: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ - 0.39%
11/11: π΄1h, π’dayβ- 0.09%
11/12: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ- 0.72%
11/13: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ- 0.38%
11/14: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ- 0.93%
11/17: π’1h, π΄dayβ- 0.8%
11/18: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ- 0.79%
11/19: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ- 1.15%
11/20: π’1h, π΄dayβ- 0.25%
11/21: π΄1h, π’dayβ- 0.12%
11/24: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ- 0.66%
11/25: π΄1h, π’dayβ- 0.16%
11/26: π΄1h, π’dayβ- 0.22%
11/27: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ- 0.02%
11/28: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ- 0.04%
12/01: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ- 0.44%
12/02: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ- 0.41%
12/03: π’1h, π’dayβοΈ- 0.0%
12/04: π΄1h, π΄dayβοΈ- 0.61%
