The close matters, not the wick

XRP, July 2020 · three wicks above, no close above

A wick can poke above the 55-day high. The system only counts the close.

By the end you will…
  • ›Tell the wick from the close
  • ›Wait for a close above the 55-day high
  • ›Enter only when the checklist is complete
🧠 The professional's question

“Did the wick break out, or the close?”

Future candles stay hidden. The replay pauses at key moments and asks what you see. Sometimes you choose BUY (go long), SELL (go short) or WAIT (stand aside) — you're graded on the quality of the decision, not on where price went next.
