A bullish pattern appearing during a session with strong downward pressure is often fighting the broader intraday current.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Likewise, bearish patterns can fail repeatedly in a session where buying pressure dominates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is where directional bias becomes valuable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When traders first determine which direction the market appears to favor, patterns can be evaluated within that framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instead of reacting to every signal, the trader can ask:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does this pattern align with the broader intraday structure?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That concept was central to the development of the Intra-Day Momentum Method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The framework does not attempt to predict every move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It focuses on three things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Fast moves off the open \u2022 Intraday directional bias \u2022 Patterns defined within that structure<\/p>\n\n\n\n
