How do you ascertain that it's an actual reversal & not merely a pullback?
In other words, what do you use to differentiate between the two?
If you're trading primarily off 4 hour charts, you're going to have to be awful patient in allowing price action to tip you the nod. If not you're going to get tangled up attempting to trade reversals when in fact they're likely to be pullbacks in the dominant trend.
One option would be to drill down into a smaller timeframe or two. Maybe a 30 or 60min? That would highlight any early potential topping or bottoming formations playing out at your previously drawn s&r zone.
