Is the breakout worth taking?

Over two years and 625,000+ backtested trades, the average opening range breakout won 52% of the time. Close to a coin flip. Every morning dozens of stocks break their opening range, but which ones actually have an edge? SPY or QQQ? AAPL or TSLA? The 5-minute breakout or the 15? You can't backtest fast enough to know, so most traders guess. ORB Setups shows each symbol's own record before you risk a dollar.
