Hey, I don't think that high matters all that much. FB, SB, DDs are momentum trades, as Bob has pointed out on the charts, when the momentum (and the trend) is strong, it's more a question of "getting in" on the ride and the exact entry point can be sometimes a little bit muddy. Here, the fact these dojis didn't have the same highs or the exact same lows doesn't matter all that much, what matters is the strength of the trend and the momentum. Although I guess that if you're aiming for a short, if the retrace is too important (say more than 70% of the initial trend) then the overall conditions aren't so good anymore. I am not saying don't look at the dojis highs/lows (as they play a role in determining the importance of the retrace) but don't give that sole criteria too much importance.
In my opinion this DD didn't work out for exactly the same reason as all of the continuation trades lately (and Bob seldom trades them nowadays so I am not the only one that has noticed these): trends get little follow through after a pullback these days. Instead prices just stall and retrace a little bit more and MAYBE then continue in the direction of the initial trend. In this light it is much more useful to look for a continuation BB after a LENGTHY pullback (in a momentum trade the pullback will be in place after 10-15 minutes or so and will be diagonal; in these continuation block/range situations the pullback is messier and usually takes like an hour to develop).
