Where are the Bulls? I scale out... banking some. No adds-on. {image}
I did long attempts twice both failed...
Now I'm not "really sure" where it wants to go..
Guess I'll have to wait and listen..

I'm not feeling the bulls..

Quick change of costume... and now I'm a bear!
Not an hero! But a damned opportunist!
Scale out something.

Dow Theory... not my craziness!
In each moment we always have three different trends!
Which one do you want to trade?

Question of style, knowledge and feeling.
I need to smell smoke and blood... but this is me!

Yes: "I love the smell of napalm in the morning..."

But sitting on a good S/R and waiting is more safe and pleasant and comfortable.
I don't want to confuse you all.
Surely I am exaggerating.

fti's teaching...
#448 - I dance in one direction, when there is determined trend.
Dance in both directions, where ranges when no predominant trends exist.

Jupiter's commentary - That, of course..., if you know how to distinguish impulse/correction and change!

That's it!
Et voilà...

(That mad that I am... I did the pathway three times... down, up, down again! Plus my multiposition playing... do the math by yourself.
Of course: stressful and demanding... and somewhat risky!
But this is why I trade a m5 or H1 trend on a m1... just to stretch the waves and the number of points.)

Fti continues like this:
"For the bank, the pockets were very deep.
For traders, I suggest milder adjustments to accommodate risk appetites. "

I'm not a superhuman
The word is out apparently someone here is...

Trend riding is actually so much more challenging and difficult than level trading off of a reasonably prominent S&R I have actually just started recognizing them and drawing them properly after 4 years what have I been doing ? where have I been all these years ?

So I am reconsidering ...
Because like you said trading off of levels is much safer and comfortable especially on days such as today
But on a strong trending day you want to be able to ride the trend !
No wonder the super AI has decided to do both

Why Markets are more and more “wilder”?
I have this conviction of mine:
almost the totality of High Frequency Trading Software (algos and quants) are Extreme Trend Followers.
They attack without pity at the minimum sign of failure in any price move even the infinitesimal one...
trying to exploit even the smallest ripple.
And you? And we?
Is it easy? No... etcetera! Is it simple? No... etcetera.

Now... I have only small scouts in. I withdrawed all my troops.
I try to play always safely.
I lost some points at 720 (as this morning I lost something @745)... who cares?
They have a gap to close and some stop to take.
Let them do their job... wait for the right opportunity (if any)

Made a very, very strong attack as a Bear from area 760.
Scale out my positions at 745. (+105 points)
We'll see.
