Don't Fiddle in the Middle

Don't fiddle in the middle means avoiding trades from the middle of a range. Every price range has a upper extreme (supply), a lower extreme (demand), and everything in between (the middle). The middle is decisional territory — price hasn't committed, both buyers and sellers are active, and any trade has roughly equal probability of working or failing. The extremes are where the edge is: clear invalidation (if price breaks the extreme, the setup fails), better R:R (your target is the opposite extreme), higher probability reactions (liquidity pools at the extremes), and alignment with higher timeframe zones. When you're unsure of direction, don't force a trade from the middle. Wait for price to reach an extreme. The one exception: when trend is clearly established on the 4H, mid-range zones become tradable because the directional bias removes the uncertainty. In a bearish trend, every supply zone is a potential short — even mid-range ones.
