Really like the framing on this being a trend-discovery phase rather than mean-reversion. Too many traders try to call tops in moves like this and get burned. The ATR expansion is the tell tbh, when volatility expands while price trends, thats usually continuation not exhaustion. Been sitting on some SLV calls myself and the gradual exposure approach makes way more snse than trying to time the exact entry.

That’s the key tell. Expanding ATR in a trend is usually continuation, not exhaustion.
"Top-calling" feels smart until structure proves otherwise.
Gradual exposure just keeps the process honest.
