the picture you gave has open and clsoe defined as the shadows, but i think it will be better to do it as close of the candle. it seems to be a good indicator of trend change but due to the size between high/lows it could lose more than it makes, maybe using the previous high/low as a trailing stop would help preserve profit. so when the price hits the line it closes, when the candle closes and crosses the line a new trade is made.
