Watch It Trade, part 2: Hook, Fade, Drift, Pivot and Reject

The second half of Watch It Trade: Hook, Fade, Drift, Pivot and Reject, one modeled trade each, filmed from the setup to the exit. Pivot and Reject reached their targets, Hook took a partial win and then its stop, and Drift, the newest family, closed on its fixed schedule. Nobody touched any of them.

Part 1 covered Trace, Open, Anchor, GAP and Zone. Here are the other five, each with its short clip.

Hook: more than one leg before it acts

Hook trades a multi-leg liquidity sweep on Nasdaq and needs more than one leg of confirmation before it acts. In this trade the first target filled, then the stop: the exit comes from the system itself, the same way whether the trade ends green or red.

Fade: only once the move visibly fails

Fade stays out while a move on gold (XAU) is orderly and trades against it only once it visibly fails. Entry, stop and target, set at once.

Drift: the newest family

Drift launched on 30 September 2026. It trades the bias between sessions on Nasdaq, on proprietary conditions, and closes on a fixed schedule. No intraday management.

Pivot: a break that doesn't hold

Pivot trades a false break at a key level on gold: a move through it that does not hold. Its size is set in the script, not on the day. The position closed at its target.

Reject: nothing left behind the run

Reject fades an exhausted, overextended move on micro gold futures (MGC): a sharp run with nothing left behind it, sized from a fixed risk budget. It closed at its target.

Ten systems, one account

Across both parts: six targets, one flat close, one partial win followed by a stop, and two trades without a declared result. One modeled trade per system is a demonstration, not a track record; the monthly results live on each strategy page. All ten run together on one account in the PVE Index, each sized by its own volatility, and smaller sets start from two strategies in the portfolios. Part 1 is here.

Modeled trades, one per system. Live results (April – September 2026) are a separate layer. Hypothetical performance; past results do not guarantee future returns. Not financial advice.
