seriously... it is second-to-last session in a calendar month, designated window-dress rally day. Fundamentally this one tries to rally at all costs, every month. This time it was a final-hour gasp on Rosh Hashanah volume NBD... pretty much everyone was done trading for the day well before then.
Yes, dedicated to Ammo & Volente, who trade very differently, but both of whom demonstrate a trader's mindset day in and day out in a public forum: Austin, occasionally I'm a "front-runner" on these setups too, but I feel so much safer getting in at a worse price, but with extra confirmation
I tend to enter 1/2 early on the proprietary patterns and 1/2 into the herd-driven surge past the traditional chart pattern breaks. Makes me feel safer getting in front of and then riding the wave of those known, expected positions to come
LOL Why the fuck does this shitty website not have a system where you can ''like'' posts or nominate them for post of the day??
