Headlines Screaming “Top” - Price Action Doesn’t

Tops are processes, not moments. When breadth holds up and leadership rotates instead of collapsing, the higher-probability read is a mid-trend pause.

In the video I walk through the signals I track to identify tops - distribution, momentum failure across leaders, and deterioration that persists - versus what looks like controlled pullback and rotation.

This week’s update at a glance

• Headlines yelling “top”: the money flows show controlled pullback and rotation, not a blow-off.
• Follow price & flows: breadth and leaders still constructive vs what we typically see at major peaks.
• Rotation vs reversal: watch where strength migrates rather than assuming trend failure.
• Process over prediction: manage risk with entries, sizing and exits while sentiment resets.
