My $TQQQ model triggered a BullDip BUY signal (oversold pullback in uptrend) after Friday's close. The buy order will execute at Monday's market open. Max historical loss for the BullDip family was -12.7% in 2018 (when an 8% hard stop triggered a next-open exit into a gap down).

$QQQ: 5 straight down days, -5.52%. Since 1999, 7 similar cases: 5-day loss of 4–8%, still above the 140-DMA. Avg forward returns: - 1 day: +0.30% - 1 week: +2.40% - 6 months: +15.59% (6 complete cases) Small sample. Recovery can still begin with more downside.

FreshHighReversalSHORT can precede deeper corrections. In my model replay, 8/21 completed six-month cases saw QQQ fall 10%+ before regaining its pre-entry high; one reached 20%+ (COVID). A short exit or BullDip entry cannot confirm a bottom. $TQQQ $QQQ

The last precedent of a BullDip making a big move after a FreshHighReversalSHORT in my model was in late 2016 off the ATH. May trigger tomorrow after close if $TQQQ drops. Historically, this entry family has a 55.6% win rate, with an avg. gain of +21.8% and avg. loss of -4.5%.

When @dryan310 talks, I listen.
As the tech sector pulls back this week, so has David Ryan's portfolio exposure. 📉

R/R alone cannot tell you whether a trade has an edge. Expectancy can. A tight stop at a "key inflection point" may improve R/R while reducing win rate. E = P(win) × Avg Win − P(loss) × Avg Loss Until the probabilities and payoffs support it, the "edge" is still just a story.

Covering my $TQQQ short tomorrow morning at the market open based on my model's 4-day exit signal (selling my proxy $SQQQ position in my retirement account).

My best career advice: At every job you should either learn or earn. Either is fine. Both is best. But if it's neither, quit.

First week of GREEN light. Breath is improving. I'm conservatively aggressive.

Druckenmiller on Soros: “He’s the best loss taker I’ve ever seen. He doesn’t care whether he wins or loses a trade. If a trade doesn’t work, he’s confident enough about his ability to win on other trades that he can easily walk away from a loss.” This is where you want to be.

What confuses me is the lack of participation. Although $QQQ is yelling at me to get in, I think the next couple of weeks will be crucial for trend confirmation. I'm holding my current positions tight and willing to be flexible if market conditions change.

When everyone is screaming that the world is coming to an end and market sentiment hits extreme fear, look at what the market is actually telling us.

If your @Muse can't make voice calls for you, ask it to send a request to the Muse team to 'dogfood' it (Meta internal jargon).
