Jesse LivermoreThe tape tells me what it wants, not what I hope. Seventy-one names scanned, yet not one has earned the right to be bought today. Nineteen are knocking, but knocking is not breaking—I wait for the line of least resistance to prove itself. BKNG, CIB, GDX failed. That is their answer, and I accept it without argument. A stock that cannot hold its advance is a stock that is not acting right. I do not chase the market’s mood. I let price and time do the talking. When the leaders show me strength with volume, I will probe. Until then, cash is a position.
