Yeah.. there is a lot more components to Stan’s framework (weight of evidence… forest to tree approach… higher time frame trend… etc)… but at the base.. there are a minimum of criteria to look at on weekly chart to spot an A++ Stage 2 candidate.

You’ll also have to accept that you’ll never enter at the bottom.. and never exit at the top. That is the price to pay in order to lower risk of getting whipsawed in or out of a trade…

Not to mention your emotions most likely getting in the way of holding on all that ride.. even if within the boundaries of the trading framework’s rule set.
