Either that or he just fades B1 like the rest of us.

He's put in the work...that's the secret....shh don't let everybody know.

The nature of the work itself was part of the secret as well. I found a very good mentor early on who taught me not only a solid framework for understanding, qualifying, and quantifying price action, but more importantly, how to teach myself by stressing the importance of careful observation of price behavior in the absence of trading.

I spent many sessions bell to bell, not trading at all, or even thinking about trading, just watching every tick. You can learn an awful lot about price behavior doing that that no one can teach you with a book, or class, or forum post.

It also helps, my mentor once said, if you have a set of balls.

Been LONG 2883.00, anticipate 2943.00, under the contingency that we do break 2890.00 - 2900.00.

Adding a short 2886.00, anticipate 2826.00 as this could very well be a massive short-term sell signal, if we were to print under 2880.00

Adjust accordingly...

Closing the case on the short, uptrend back in phase above 2890.00

For journal integrity purposes always assume a 2 point stop if it isn't mentioned. 88.50 first scale out on the 85.50's but with no trend I will exit based on the DOM if it calls for it.
