“Everything is red. Should I sell?”
No. That’s what retail does.
Let’s show you how to trade like a pro on red days.
—
📉 Step 1: Zoom Out
Red candles look scary on the 5-minute chart.
But zoom out to:
• 1H → You’ll see a pullback
• 4H or 1D → You’ll see structure
→ Don’t react emotionally to the short-term.
📌 First question: Is this a pullback or a breakdown?
—
🧱 Step 2: Identify the Structure
Use simple structure rules:
• Higher highs & higher lows = Uptrend
• Lower highs & lower lows = Downtrend
If price is still holding previous higher lows on 4H — don’t panic.
→ You’re just in a pullback zone.

📍 Step 3: Mark Key Demand Zones
Check:
• Previous breakout areas
• 0.618 Fib retracement levels
• Daily order blocks or imbalance zones
These areas often absorb red-day selling and bounce 💥
—
🔍 Step 4: Watch Price Reaction
Once price enters those zones:
• Does it wick and recover?
• Does volume spike?
• Are there bullish candles?
Wait for confirmation. Then — enter with a plan:
→ SL below zone
→ TP at recent structure or high-volume node

🧠 Final Thoughts:
Red days = opportunity for those who are prepared.
It’s where:
• Fear is high
• Liquidity is deep
• Whales step in
Don’t be the one panic-selling to them 🐳
