How to avoid chasing tops?



Base Counting

Smart money only accumulates from the trend change
through the 1st–3rd leg.

You will NEVER see institutions loading the 4th or 5th bull flag.

It doesn’t happen.

When an asset is already up 2000% in 2 months and all of fintwit is bull-posting PnL screenshots, the easy money is gone and the blow-off top is forming.

Count the bases.

Buy the first three legs with smart money.

Either you're positioned nicely, or sitting on the hands.

Chasing the 5th flag = becoming exit liquidity.

Base counting keeps you protected from impulsive trading.
