Trading 'around the Curves' provides some special opportunities in the MidDay or Last Hour Frames of the day. That's when the EMA's tend to attract price into corrective mode like a magnet. But overcoming the basic trend of the MA's uses up a lot of buying power, especially on these brutal bear market days.
And although the precise timing of these later PM entries did require the fine tuning the favored fractal algorithm, Serial Sequent, a basic understanding of the rules regarding this 'trading the curves' could have gotten you into a short position for new intraday bear trend extremes. ....as usual, I got out too soon, but am not too ashamed of the longer hold for some 70+ points of that excursion.
