Majors soft, mid-caps still green — don't fade RS on autopilot.
Live Binance Markets (24h):
BTC ~83.9k (−0.2%) · ETH ~2,697 (−0.6%)
vs BNB ~769 (+0.7%) · XRP ~1.51 (+0.7%) · SOL ~119.8 (+0.4%)
Breadth read: BTC/ETH are soft-red while the next L1/mid sleeve is still printing green. That is not "everything is risk-on" — and it is not "everything is risk-off." It is a split tape.
3 checks before you size the RS sleeve:
1) Soft majors ≠ auto-fade midcaps — check which sleeve actually leads
2) Prefer pullbacks in BNB/XRP/SOL over FOMO into green candles
3) Invalidate: midcaps lose green in the same move BTC dumps harder
Rule: relative strength is a filter, not a chase signal. If leaders only look strong because majors are soft, wait for a retest.

Most traders obsess over the entry candle.
Very few write the exit first.
That's why stops get walked, size gets inflated by "conviction," and one bad add turns a plan into a hope trade.
Here is a simple pre-trade checklist. Four checks. No ticker required.
1) Invalidation price — written first
Before you size, write the exact price (or condition) that kills the idea.
If you can't name it in one line, you don't have a trade — you have a wish.
2) Size from stop distance, not conviction
Risk $ ÷ distance to invalidation = quantity.
Feeling "sure" does not widen your account. Distance does.
Big conviction + tiny stop distance still equals oversized risk if you skip the math.
3) One add, max — and only if thesis intact
One scale-in is allowed only when the original reason to be in is still true.
If you are adding because you are underwater, that is not an add. That is averaging hope.
4) If you move the stop farther, you rewrote risk
Widening a stop without rewriting the thesis is a silent leverage increase.
Same idea. Bigger loss. Pretending nothing changed.
Rule: no written exit = no entry.
Plan the invalidation, the size, and the max add before you fill — not after P&L starts talking.
Reply PLAN if you write the exit first.
Reply WING if you usually figure it out live.

Price going your way feels like proof. Often it is just confirmation bias.
Before you ADD size after a green candle, run these 4 checks:
1) DISCONFIRM — Write what would prove you wrong. If you cannot name it, you are hoping — not trading.
2) FRESH INFO — Did new data arrive, or did the candle alone change your mind? Chart motion is not a catalyst.
3) SIZE RULE — Is the add size pre-written in your plan, or did hope inflate it? Hope-sized adds are how winners become accounts under water.
4) TIMEBOX — Would you enter this same size fresh right now with no open bag? If no, do not add.
Green ≠ confirmed. Edge is the plan that survives a red candle too.
Reply BIAS if you have added on hope before — or EDGE if you already write the kill checks first.
