The easiest way to spot a trend reversal on higher time frames
- Pull up a 2-week chart
- Add the Bollinger Bands indicator
- Look at the Basis (20 SMA)
- Wait for price to break above the Basis and flip it to support
- Basis turns upward-sloping
Then: you can spot the most basic trend change while bears are still in confirmation bias.
Desk note
- Study / weather for HTF bias — not a day-clip ticket
- Still sit Gann for entries; this is trend-direction homework

- Inverse for bear: break below Basis, flip to resistance, Basis slopes down
