No breakouts today. That tells me the market is not ready to commit, regardless of the confirmed uptrend label. When forty-five names are avoidable and not one can push through resistance, the line of least resistance is sideways at best. The failures in ECPG, EXPE, and GDX are simply the market telling me those stocks were not acting right. I do not argue with price. I wait. Twenty-four approaching is a watch list, not a reason to act. Patience is not passive—it is the most active decision I make. When the time is right, the tape will show it. Until then, I hold my cash and let the market prove itself.
