Thought of the day
One of the easiest traps to fall into as a trader is breaking your own rules. The moment you stop following your system, you invite randomness into your trading, and random actions lead to random results.
A trading system isn’t about perfection, it’s about consistency. Rules exist to protect you from emotional decisions in the heat of the moment. Every time you override them, chasing an entry, skipping a stop, sizing impulsively, you chip away at your edge and replace it with chance.
The solution? Commit to discipline. Execute your plan as written, review it regularly, and only change rules deliberately, not mid-trade. Over time, consistency compounds. Without discipline, there is no system, only luck.

MARKET ANALYSIS
Good evening,
Price daily reversal above Thursday’s high. Powerful day.
MCSI hook-up!! Good.
Breadth extensions hooked UP again after an intraday oversold
TLMM Model = Uptrend Attempt
This is my anticipation setup right here… A price bounces off rising daily-structure, daily reversal (Friday), confirmed by a MCSI and Breadth ext. hook-up.
We’ll need to see if we follow-through and we finally see better action as last week on the MCSI 10dma reclaim. We need to see broader participation with breadth expending way larger than the initial bounce attempt last week.
Day by day, but I remain cautiously optimistic.
TLMM DASHBOARD NASDAQ
MARKET INTERNALS
Rejection of the daily-structure with a reversal confirmation. Good!!
Rejection of recent swing-high structure, with a breakdown of the daily-structure on Friday. Good!!
/BTC (Bitcoin)
Looking for a tight right side before or after the 21dma-structure reclaim is made. If we get a rejection of the structure, then more time is probably needed to setup. But it looks good with a higher low being confirmed on the weekly.

PORTFOLIO UPDATE
Hey guys!
No trades for me last Friday. I like how the market is setting up, especially in the Liquid Leader names I’m trading. We saw some constructive action after last Thursday’s bounce attempt, with some daily reversal confirmation on Friday, or some tight and firm inside day. If we get confirmation of breadth coming in, MCSI turning back up, and finally starting to trend higher above the 10dma (meaning we are in breadth expansion), then I will look to be a bit more aggressive, but I won’t add anything until that happens. So I’m taking it day by day, but patient as the market continues to build that right side constructively.
