The London session can create strong moves, but the first breakout is not always the best entry. Many times price breaks the Asian range, triggers stops, and then returns back inside the range.
I prefer waiting for either acceptance or rejection. Acceptance means price holds outside the range and retests the old boundary. Rejection means price fails back inside and gives a potential reversal setup. Both are cleaner than guessing on the first candle.
This approach reduces the number of trades, but it improves decision quality. I would rather miss a fast move than enter without a real invalidation point.
The best London setups for me combine range structure, session timing, and a clear reason why liquidity has shifted. Without that, the breakout is just movement.
