Wick Play is a setup in which:
- Strong stock with momentum to the upside closes off the highs of the day in yesterdays session.
- Today's session opens in the candle "wick" of yesterdays bar.
- If stock holds in the wick and doesn't trade in the body of yesterdays candle, it is a sign of strength.
- Trigger happens on day 3 when price moves over the high of the wick inside day.
