Most traders misread strength.
A green candle is not confirmation.
A breakout is not continuation.
Momentum is not commitment.
Here’s the uncomfortable truth:
Markets move on liquidity —
not on optimism.
Before calling it a trend, ask:
• Did price accept above prior resistance?
• Is volume expanding on continuation — or only on impulse?
• Are pullbacks shallow and defended?
• Is participation broadening or narrowing?
Retail reacts to movement.
Professionals measure acceptance.
That difference compounds over time.
If this fails to hold above reclaimed levels,
it becomes a liquidity sweep — not a breakout.
Watching how this closes.
