KEYS
๐น Signal duration depends solely on objective market action measurement.
๐น It conveys what โisโ โ not โwhy,โ or for how long.
๐น It is an objective, repeatable, and reliable tool to
- enforce discipline,
- prevent unforced errors,
- eliminate emotion and confusion, and
- make sound decisions in all market environments.
DETAIL
This enforced discipline ensures new positions are opened only in the direction of market strengthening or weakening.
If strengthening, only new long positions can be opened.
If weakening, only new short positions can be opened.
Why? Trend respect.
Market weakening does not mean โexit existing long positions.โ Only potential new positions are impacted by the critical question of โwhat is the market doing now?โ
Existing open positions are exited when their behavior negates the entry thesis.
