One of the biggest things I see a lot of traders do is trade the way in every environment or treat them all the same. Markets have trends / pace, regimes, market structure. All matter for the context of the trade you are taking and the style. When I'm trading I think about that context for the trades I want to take and try to adapt to the current environment. Where a lot of people lose money bc they may trade a ranging market like a trending market etc. It all comes back down to knowing when to gas it, and when to hit the brakes. Offense, defense. When to push. So suggest thinking about this more as the environment around you changes. Often times, we will get a 3-6 week move, and then consolidation for example. So each stage can be treated a little different. The market gives us clues through momentum + market structure

Quoted context

These are the quoted author’s words.

in these types of moves, lockout trends, you often aren't going to get that standard pullback and retest. any low time frame wipeouts are typically buys that will often V reverse. hopefully we get a good 4-6 weeks of some nice trends. not a lot of quality to choose from, but there is some decent plays you can sleep in that are liquid, with strong tailwinds. in general looking more at quality then quantity. as has been the play all year. focus will remain low amount of trades, in quality picks. No plans to add anything new at this time to the existing trades. Will continue to trade eth, hype, pump. $Eth has been the strongest mover for majors. $pump would like to see consolidate, and jump back in. $hype I think will make new ath's and looking to add more on dips.
