FROM THE DESK OF WYCKOFF TRADER (Read the Terminology at the bottom if you need clarification on Wyckoff/WB-isms)
– 🐂 The Bull – Represents structural resilience, bid stacking, and market strength. If liquidity holds, the bull carries the weight
– 🐻 The Bear – Symbolizes liquidity exhaustion, price vulnerability, and market weakness. If bids vanish, the bear drags the market down.
– 👻 “GHOST – If the market doesn't have breath, it will fall due to the
lack of structure under the pressure of constant changing of belief.” – Wyckoff Trader
THE LONG GAME (if you dare to read)
What I talking about in 2020; 2026/27, 2033, 2055
How about exotic energy—blue pellet—anti gravitvic? That might work but NUCLEAR? And this is the best and brightest can come up with? It's a good thing they are not tradesman, cause they be trying to use a hammer to remove a screw…
A hammer does not fit every situation and neither does NUCLEAR. I don't think the Glatic Federation of Light would allow them out in space with a nuclear reactor.
Albert E. once said something about solving a problem the same what you created it. What was it called? Insanity!

— MECHANICS – WB’S TURNS — SERIES S4L IFFY 🦅 AM Turn 0821 – No Sleep Till Jackson Hole
This day was more about testing the previous days' low. I had 6388 as the center of gravity as 78,600 contracts were scooped up by the Composite Man a few days before. I had an interesting conversation about Market Profile with Trader Guy yesterday. About were buyers and sellers agree on price. I would say yesterday was more of selling climax automatic a few days before and yesterday was Wyckoff Phase A. Today may transition into Phase B/C we will see!
PROSE AND THE NUMBAHS
They say you can only make a decision based upon who you are; or after your decision—who you were. You have freedom to choose but you can only choose based upon who you are at your present—space time moment but you have total and absolute freedom to choose who you will become!

"Things just got ugly, Louis. Very ugly." (Black Swan)

🐟 (Minnows)
⏳ Lifespan: 1–2 years
💧 Liquidity Impact: Momentary—tiny, rapid entries and exits
🔄 Interpretation: Their short biological life mirrors *fleeting market presence*. They appear as *blips* on the liquidity radar—numerous but not lasting.
🐟 (Sardines)
⏳ Lifespan: 3–4 years
💧 Liquidity Impact: Mid-range, directional waves
🔄 Interpretation: Like their lifespan, they sustain presence a bit longer—*waves of flow* with follow-through. Not permanent, but *tactically significant*.
🐟 (Tuna)
⏳ Lifespan: 15–40 years
💧 Liquidity Impact: Deep, anchoring, strategic
🔄 Interpretation: Their long biological endurance maps to *long-dwelling liquidity*. When they enter, they sit, influence, and stabilize. They're duration-defined presences**, just like their species.
