Week 34 Review
What is known and what can be done are different.

August 24–28, 2026. The market structure was fairly clear. We knew where to buy and where to pass. So, did I act according to that understanding?
PERIOD
08.24 — 08.28
WEEKLY RESULT
+40,650 yen
THEME
Mismatch between understanding and action

The issue wasn’t whether I won or lost. There was a moment when the market structure I was watching and the actual orders I placed didn’t feel like the same person.
WHAT I KNEW
The market was fairly clear.
Early-week decline. Sell-off unable to break the lows. The rebound that followed. Moreover, whether that buying truly ended the downtrend.

WHAT I ACTUALLY DID
MONDAY
−15,273 yen

THURSDAY

From here, proceed to the main content.
