What This Setup Is

A long continuation setup that uses a confirmed impulse, controlled retracement, and upside break to define a Wave 3 attempt.

Why It Fires

Balanced regime conditions can let structure lead the trade. If the retracement holds and the breakout confirms, the next impulse can travel cleanly enough for a 2R model.

Exact Trigger Checklist

  • Chart: MES 1-minute bars with confirmed pivots.
  • Identify the first upside impulse and retracement.
  • Require regime_label=balanced.
  • Go long on the confirmed Wave 3 breakout.
  • Risk model: pivot invalidation with 2R continuation target.

Good Conditions

  • The retracement respects the tested pivot window.
  • Balanced regime keeps the trade from fighting extreme macro pressure.
  • The breakout has room before the next resistance pocket.
  • The structure is visible before the trigger, not labeled afterward.

Avoid Conditions

  • The retracement undercuts the impulse base.
  • The wave labels are ambiguous or overlapping.
  • The breakout happens after the move is already extended.
  • News or opening volatility invalidates the balanced regime read.
