TradeMaven’s Inside Edge (TIE) 3-2-1 methodology uses 3 rules, 2 patterns, and 1 indicator. Rule #3: Don’t Fade Moves-Out-of-the-Middle (MoM’s.) MoM’s are “go with” trades that put money in your pocket. Any significant market move will start from the middle of a prior distribution. Fading (going against) this type of move is a recipe for disaster. Knowing a MoM is in progress helps you set expectations and market direction for the coming day. Understanding the correct market direction will keep you out of low probability trades and reduce your chances of getting chopped up.



The proprietary TIE Market Profile provides us with an excellent example in the eMini S&P. The short term trend moving higher has run out of gas. The MoM comes out of the distribution, accelerating to the downside. We call this “the end is the beginning.”
