🔹 JCPB/BAB
Chart: https://www.tradingview.com/x/4pv9t9uZ/
- [] Low ADX, balanced DI+ / DI− → classic setup for a mean-reversion short.
[] But the last daily candle is a strong bullish bar — big, green, and decisive.
[] This could be the start of a breakout, and shorting into fresh upside momentum is dangerous.
[] Looks neutral — but hides bullish potential.
🔸 AGG/GTO
Chart: https://www.tradingview.com/x/YLNzm52F/
- [] Clear uptrend: DI+ dominates, price marching upward.
[] Also touching upper Bollinger Band, so yes — shorting here is fighting the trend.
[] But at least the risk is obvious, and you can frame the trade accordingly.
[] Transparent trend = measurable risk.
🧠 Bottom line:
- [] JCPB/BAB may seem safer — but that green candle changes everything.[] AGG/GTO is clearly trending — risky to short, but less deceptive.
