Ahhh, the 1-2-3 intraday reversal pattern. One of my favorites that I have not played in quite some time to the long side. It is one of my most profitable trades with a very high win %.
Here is a link to my original blog on this subject.

Many oils had this same look today. All on 30 minute support and put in a beautiful reversal pattern.
You wait for your higher low (confirmed on the wick) and its off to the races. If you time the pattern you weren't ever in a losing trade. EMAs also helped to time your entry. If you held for the whole move (Unlike me) that was almost a $2 gain on 15 cents risk.
Yep.. really nice. The 1-2-3 to the long side is even better when oversold on the daily too. In this case, USO also took off at this time. Nice when it all aligns. Nice job!
