It can't be stressed enough that you have to be ready execute the trades in your plan. If some require stp-n-rev positioning, then that must be all the more ready as it comes so quickly. Those trades should be announced in your head as 'long with stp-n-rev back to short', as opposed to just 'long' and taking that position, and then deciding it's a stp-n-rev a minute later. Even that might be too late to position for the order entry mechanics of properly adjusting the stops on the long and still getting the stp-n-rev short entries positioned. Be focused. The initial trend breaks of the 1st Frame by nature are the fastest usually of the day. Without practice and preparation, and seeing ahead to the possibility of the model's fruition, you don't have a chance to take advantage of the freshly breaking trends. I was too slow in two places in the early going that could have positioned me to participate on the downside before the buy signals finally came in solidly. Had I not been slow, it would have made the difference in not having to dig myself out of a hole before the true reversal signals did take place.
