The Perfect Storm Index™ is still elevated — the macro backdrop hasn't cleared. Some assets are trying to bounce, but liquidity is thin, uncertainty is high, and the structure isn't giving you permission to press yet.
This index doesn't forecast direction. It reads conditions. And right now, conditions say: stay disciplined.
Cash is a position. Patience is a strategy. Don't force trades into a messy setup just because you're bored or because something moved 3%. Wait for confirmation. Wait for the storm to pass.
I've seen this movie before — the market rewards the patient and punishes the eager. Let the structure clean up before you commit capital.
