When to Trade Candle 4
The best trades often come within candle 3, but candle 4 can still present strong opportunities under specific conditions. Candle 4 should be traded when short-term targets remain open and provide sufficient risk-to-reward to those targets. In the example shown, both the candle 2 and candle 3 closures leave targets open, and these targets can be reached with favorable risk-to-reward setups on the lower timeframes.

Below are scenarios when candle 4 should be avoided. If candle 3 has already produced a large expansion or reached its short-term targets, the setup becomes less favorable. After price takes out a high or low, it can enter a new phase of price, which increases the likelihood of consolidation, retracement, or reversal rather than clean continuation.
