DAX
1 min chart from yesterday
an excellent chart for explanations
i forgot to put in some stuff
in a downtrend all minor bullish momentum MUST be taken out before going short
HERE1..price retraced and trended...the minor uptrend/green trendline was taken out..that alerts you
HERE 2..the bounce did not trend..instead we got a messy pattern that was slightly bullish/green horizontal breakout..if its messy..the only way of telling that any bullish momentum has gone is a consecutive bearish signals/aqua


in most cases..the breakout/entry point is not actually the supp/res area

you actually get in with a better risk/reward ratio/tighter stop

on those pullbacks
price can trend and then get meesy
or price is messy and then trend
either way you are covered
reverse divergence /for trend continuation on candle charts will not be so accurate..imho..
 
xauusd from our death zone marked yesterday..working nicely
100 point bounce on dax from our pivot area we marked before the open

I most concur with you on the last two lines of the post. It's very hard to gauge the trend on a candlestick chart.
 
Trend up broken and supp purple line breached, short in. Does that make sense?
