    there is a channel line breakout failure.....because of the steep downtrend i expect this failure will fail and become a breakout pull back further short will be added if that happens

    brooks says that in a down trend all...[but one] attempts [buy signals] to reverse the trend will fail.....so it is better to wait, for the buy signals, to fail and then trade that. if the stop is hit....consider waiting for fresh information:this Brooks does not specifically say but there a lots of things he does not specifically say..
    there will be conflicting signals......ignore those that go against the trend.....if ignoring causes losses....then reassess the market. before entering any trade signals again



    but he is very clear in saying STAY WITH THE TREND

    this channel extension[which is also a DT bear flag] at the ema to boot, so a number of reasons here for this to be the end of this corrective move which will also make it about the same length as the other corrective moves in this swinghttps://www.tradingview.com/x/zfeg87H1/

    market made an attempt to reverse the down move defined by blue trend line.......but could not and broke the up trend defined by the yellow tend line.....there were some micro trendlines which confirmed this overall market action but since they are micro, drawing them would not be clear ......https://www.tradingview.com/x/Uqol3Bb5/
