    Similar setup in '29, fed started tightening at the top of a parabola, right as the economy cratered. Then the government started spending, spending spending. Then all nations sent young men into battle.

    Trading, 12 years off and on, mostly stocks & options. Momo chasing, oversold reversals, trend pullbacks, etc. Index <1hr timeframe bars, less than a year. But it jumped right out at me one day.

    Sold the breakout. Not in the mood to hold overnight being this far down range on the daily. Serious moves today, congrats if you survived it!

    Risk Management is the answer

    Long 100 Sqqq in anticipation of the break of the huge flag we just traced out... Might regret it, but I've lost money all year fighting the down trend. I'm not insane!
