Hello everyone,
This is my first post.
My question is very general, not pertaining to any specific market.
I was looking at a bollinger band contraction followed by the price hugging the lower band to go short.
It all looked legit but in the last moment, I just dropped the 200 EMA on it and backed out because of a strong potential support.
I am a novice trader and I would like to understand that was it only the 200 EMA or were there other reasons as to why the signal failed.
Thanks in advance.
