Swing and position traders often find themselves in a tough spot:
You enter a great trade based on strong fundamentals — only to second-guess everything a few days later.
“What if new data shifts the narrative?”
“Is my trade still valid even though the new month has started?”
Let’s be clear: markets don’t reset every month. Strength and weakness carry over — until the data tells a different story.
That’s where BullBearMetrics comes in.
🧠 Section 1: Why Holding Trades Is Hard
Holding a trade for more than a few hours or days is mentally tough. Why?
- Fear of unexpected news: A surprise central bank speech or CPI report can flip sentiment fast.
- Unclear trend continuation: Without confirmation, traders often close too early — or too late.
- Doubt in your thesis: Most traders don’t know if the fundamentals still support their position after 3–5 days.
This uncertainty causes premature exits — or worse, holding onto trades that have lost all backing.
✅ Section 2: How BullBearMetrics Solves This
BullBearMetrics removes the guesswork.
It’s not just an economic calendar — it’s a strength momentum tracker that shows what’s strong, what’s weak, and what’s changing.
Here’s how it helps you hold trades:
- Weekly currency score updates: Stay on top of fresh macro sentiment by currency, not just headlines.
- Live data input: Once new economic data is released (e.g., CPI, GDP, NFP), the dashboard reflects shifts in strength.
- Bias confirmation: At a glance, you know if your current trade still has fundamental support — or if it’s time to scale out.
💼 Section 3: Real Example — GBPCHF
In April, GBP was fundamentally strong (hawkish BoE sentiment, rising inflation), while CHF was weak.
A BullBearMetrics user could confidently hold GBPCHF longs throughout that month when the shift in technicals started.
In April, GBP was fundamentally strong (hawkish BoE, hot CPI), and CHF was neutral.
Entering May, CHF released softer-than-expected CPI — pushing its strength lower.
BullBearMetrics showed CHF declining in strength, while GBP remained stable or rising with strong CPI and services PMI.
The result? GBPCHF remained bullish, and BullBearMetrics confirmed the bias with updated scores.
✅ Confidence: The trader continues to hold.
🔔 But stays alert: A potential SNB speech or surprise data could reverse it.
🔄 Section 4: Think in Terms of Momentum
Fundamentals aren’t static. Neither is strength.
- A trade isn’t valid forever — it’s valid as long as the narrative is intact
- Like a fire, strength needs fresh fuel (new data, hawkish tone, growth surprises)
- No fresh fuel? The fire fades.
That’s why BullBearMetrics isn’t just for entries — it’s for monitoring strength weekly.
🔁 Check the dashboard every weekend or before major data events.
🧩 Section 5: Practical Holding Tips
Here’s how to hold your trades like a pro:
- Use trailing stops: Lock in gains as momentum continues
- Scale out: Take partial profits when a shift is near
- Monitor strength: Watch for rating downgrades or bullish-to-neutral flips
- Don’t pair neutral vs neutral: It leads to choppy, low-volatility ranges
BullBearMetrics helps you spot when to hold and when to fold.
