Recovery Momentum vs. Technical Collapse



One bounced back. One didn't. Here's what separated them.

When a market shakes out, the ones that rebuild and hold their gains show real strength. But if you break through key support levels and can't recover? That's your signal the trade idea is dead.

The critical take: don't just place stops randomly. Put them exactly where your thesis gets invalidated. A one-hour trader's thesis breaks at different levels than a swing trader's. Same asset, completely different stop placement.

Know your timeframe. Know your levels. That's how you separate noise from signal.

Basically, you need to stick to your thesis. A break is a break; don't deceive yourself into waiting for a rebound... Some people just hold on stubbornly, only to end up losing even more in the end.

Well said. A true dip is one that can be pulled back from a rebound. Once the support breaks and there's no response, it's time to withdraw. This is the difference between a master and a gambler.

The placement of stop-loss is truly an art; it varies so much across different cycles... Merely looking at support levels is not enough.

The key is to know your time frame, otherwise you'll be caught off guard by stop-loss hits and won't even have time to cry.

The stop-loss position really needs to be tied to the trading cycle; otherwise, it's just guesswork. Support levels on the 1-hour chart and the daily chart cannot be mixed.

Wow, stop-loss placement is so crucial. I used to place it randomly... No wonder I kept getting trapped.
