Why do many textbooks' technical analyses fail in practice? Most market traders operate at the same level and possess similar thought processes. The essence of the market is a game between whales and retail traders. Common concepts like trend lines and support trends are often used to create breakouts; only after a breakout can there be flow. The chips you lose are what the whales can reclaim, and chasing after a breakout often leads to a drop that traps you. This is the main theme of the futures market and the flow code for bulls and bears, a trading system that doesn't break doesn't establish.
Most trading logic only exists at the first level; you need to view it from the second level. 👀
