What This Rep Tests

Use this rep to practice the same sequence a day trader needs before entry: read the market backdrop, locate VWAP and key levels, judge volume, then decide whether the chart deserves Long, Short, or Pass. Do not try to predict one candle. Build a plan you could defend in real time: where the idea triggers, where it is wrong, and whether the reward is worth the risk. After you commit, the modeled reveal unlocks with scoring, planning zones, and coaching notes so you can compare your read with the higher-probability decision.
