This week's setup is brutal:

US earnings after hours today → bearish
Midterm elections Tuesday → choppy at best
Iran strike Wednesday → risk-off dump
NFI Friday → another flush

Every "bullish" event just brings chop. Every bearish catalyst triggers a leg down.

How are we supposed to trade this? Market's playing defense-only mode. No bid, no relief rallies, just slow bleed into every headline.

If you're not hedged or in stables, you're getting cooked. This isn't a dip-buying environment—it's a survival game.
