I did some studying of this "Tokyo IB" over the last week. Please don't sleep on this idea. If new to IB, it moves a little slower & may offer traders a better opportunity to develop their own strategy/approach without the chaos of the NY open. Probabilities remain strong! 💪

A lot of people have been asking me about the Tokyo Session IB so here’s a quick breakdown of how I personally trade it and use Edgeful during the overnight session. 🧵🧵🧵

$NQ May 25, 2026
Not a single line on this chart was hand-drawn. Everything is fully automatic.
I wasn’t planning on trading today, but I got a phone alert that the setup was forming, so I decided to take it.
I’ll also use this post as an example of how refined the Unicorn / Breaker logic is inside the tool.
Notice how the system doesn’t simply use the last up-close candle. Instead, it identifies the consecutive candles that form the actual breaker structure, while ignoring the downside movement within the move.
That gives a cleaner breaker, avoids using a weak one-candle breaker, and in this case helps prevent the stop loss that would have come from that less refined logic.

the initial balance is one of the most popular futures trading setups on $ES and $NQ.
so we partnered up with the IB man himself @MrZincx to break down his entire IB 50 strategy.

$NQ An outlier day for IB with the high printing 1st & the close in the lower half (bearish), but I knew it was trouble on the short side when the 10am $ES red FVG went IFVG & then the $NQ 1st FVG after 10am printed green with those displacement candles. tradingview.com/x/gBWgDU97/
English

"Hey, Ben. The IB high printed 1st on Friday. Don't we usually look for the IB low to break 1st?"
Usually, yes. Lately, no. Over the last 3 months, when $NQ IB high prints 1st, the 1st break is a coin toss. That's why I mentioned to watch those FVGs. Data courtesy of @edgeful. 👀

@VClouette It looks risky SL at 50%.
Does @edgeful has stats about how many times price reaches IB high before hitting IB50?
English

@TraderAryan I see SL is at 50%. Does edgeful has stats to see how many times price goes to IB high before IB 50?

@dancooketrades Have you tested IB30 with 70% retrace as SL? If win rate remains high, it makes a huge difference in RR: from 1:2 to 3:4
