Condition 1
yesterday gap up and hold
but we are still in that messy area
and we are running in the downtrend line
Condition 0

we open near y h
Thoughts
Wait for a situation that is
a) established enough and (on the other hand still)
b) fresh enough
I have no bias in what way such a situation could occur

Condition 1
strong selloff after tariff info
Condition 0
open with very large gap down
Thoughts
the bias is short
we attenpt to breakout of 4 day balance
there could be some overhead supply
at the same time we already have shorts positioned from friday and eth > there could be some covering
as the breakout is fresh there could also be a gap and go
and, as always, door no 3: As we have already moved more than 3% we could see balance
