You avoid fake inside bar breakouts by waiting for a strong candle close beyond the mother bar's range rather than entering on a wick.
A common trap is entering as soon as price touches the inside bar high or low, only for it to whip back and close inside the range;
The solution is to wait for a strong candle close outside the inside bar range, ideally with volume or momentum confirmation before entering.
Trade with the trend, since inside bars that form after an aggressive move offer stronger continuation probability, and avoid high-impact news windows where sudden volatility disrupts patterns.
If price breaks out then snaps back inside, treat it as a fakey setup.
