Market Context: Waiting for a Catalyst?

The market currently grinds slightly upward, but the tight daily range indicates indecision. With no major earnings this week and reduced geopolitical tension, traders appear to be in wait-and-see mode around the all-time high region.

This explains the closer-than-usual partial profit targets—they reflect tightening volatility and a market potentially preparing for a decisive breakout or rejection. Our map adapts accordingly.

🧭 tradeCompass Methodology – A Quick Primer

The Trade Compass system is designed to provide orientation, not prediction. Think of it as your intraday GPS, helping you:

• Define bias zones: Bullish above, bearish below

• Adapt to volatility: Partial profits are structured based on current range dynamics

• Manage risk systematically:

• Use the Map, Not Your Gut: Every threshold, POC, and deviation line is there for a reason, rooted in volume, VWAPs, and institutional behavior

This system helps both short-term traders and long-term investors avoid emotional trading and instead anchor decisions to real-time price behavior around key levels.

🧠 Final Notes for Traders & Investors

• Be cautious of late entries—they often require wider stops and smaller sizes.

• Below $22,448 the story changes—bearish plan activates.

• This region near the all-time high is rich with hesitation and potential traps. Stay disciplined, scale in, and follow the map.

• Move stops to entry after your second partial to protect capital while still leaving room for a runner.
