The bias for a potential reversal is established after a '1 2 3 move'. This reversal bias is invalidated if the market breaks and closes above a specific high.
"what I would do in this specific case and let's go ahead and go through the bias the bias we have considering that the market just did this one two three move that gives me the bias that we're gonna be in a reversal the way I know I'm no longer in a reversal is if we break through these highs if I break above this high right here then I no longer consider this a possible reversal"

For expected trend continuation downwards, the maximum target is set at the lowest lows, coinciding with the maximum stop-loss level.
"if I'm expecting trend continuation in this market to head lower then if it's going to head lower what does it have to do it must break through the lowest lows in order to head lower so my maximum target would be right there with my maximum stop-loss where my red line is"

To allow for four entry opportunities within a zone while maintaining a 1% total stop-loss, each individual position risk is set at 0.25% of the account.

Scaling into a trade involves adding new positions as the price moves favorably, potentially improving risk-reward and allowing for stop-loss adjustments on subsequent entries.
"if we had higher as we go higher I will scale in with new positions as we have entry reasons that say tops or whatever in trees and I decide to use I'll scale in with new positions as we head higher this way I have a chance to actually get a better risk reward if we do that higher and if we go lower I can move my stop-loss down as we go lower and open up different positions with a smaller stop-loss which will also add to the risk reward of this trait"

Fibonacci retracements are used to define an accumulation zone between the maximum target and the maximum stop-loss, from which initial trades are taken on smaller timeframes.
"what I had if I pull my Fibonacci retracement from my max target up to this area was an area that looks something like this that I can place trades it so if I drop down to a smaller time frame that five-minute chart you'll see that in that area is where I got my initial trade"

The entry for a trade in the accumulation zone was based on a double top pattern identified on a specific candle.
