I’m a trend follower, combining technical, fundamental, sentiment, and macro analysis with disciplined risk management. Time frame alignment is crucial to my strategy, whether taking a shorter-term momentum trade or a longer-term position. My approach is data-driven, respecting the Law of Supply and Demand and prioritizing price action above all else.
