# 1 Tick Wonder

The AlgoBox™ One Tick Wonder is a pattern strategy where price surpasses a previous high or low by one tick, and then immediately reverses, potentially trapping new participants at that new high or low. <br>

Since the One Tick Wonder is price pattern, it should be analyzed in conjunction with other AlgoBox™ indicators and strategies for more confluence, such as [SMLK Timing Lines](/fundamentals/smlk-timing-lines.md), [Harmonic Patterns](/fundamentals/harmonic-patterns.md), [FibElliDotts](/fundamentals/fibellidott.md) etc.
