Dollar Slides, Breakouts Missed & Mindset Matters

Markets reacted swiftly to Powell’s dovish tone at Jackson Hole, sending the dollar lower and reigniting risk appetite across equities and crypto. But while price action delivered clean breakouts and trend shifts, many traders were left watching from the sidelines.

Why? It’s often not about missing the signal—it’s about missing the mindset. From over-focusing on current trades to clinging to biases, traders can overlook breakout setups even when they’re flashing in plain sight. This issue is about sharpening your awareness, refining your flexibility, and preparing for the next move before it happens.
