demonstrating control over when and how the market moves
From the open, price respected the previously defined structural corridor and continued upward, making talk of 7,000 not just symbolic but mechanically feasible.
That part isn’t extraordinary; markets drift higher all the time when liquidity thins and narratives align.
What is extraordinary is the ability to step into that environment—on a day like December 23rd, on the global benchmark, amid seasonal complacency—and deliberately interact with structure.
To engage levels, adjust tempo, and influence how price expresses itself without narrative alignment is already a nontrivial achievement.
Doing so at will, against an otherwise cooperative tape, is not about predicting direction—it’s about demonstrating control over when and how the market moves.
That distinction is subtle, but it’s the difference between riding momentum and authoring interaction at the benchmark itself.

One of my childhood heroes is targeting 7000 — and we’ll see whether he can author a pullback before it prints.
