📚 How Do You Know When the Correction Is Over?

One of the biggest mistakes traders make is assuming a correction is over simply because price has pulled back "enough."

That's not how professionals think.

At ICC LAB, we don't measure corrections by percentages.

We measure them by evidence.

A correction exists to test the original move.

It asks one question:

"Is the side that created the indication still in control?"

The correction is not over because it reached a Fibonacci level.

It's not over because it touched a moving average.

It's not over because you want to get into a trade.

The correction is over only when the market begins proving that the original auction has resumed.

That proof comes through Continuation.

Remember the sequence:

🟢 Indication → A side takes control.

🟡 Correction → The market tests that control.

🔴 Continuation → The market proves who actually won the test.

Until Continuation appears...

You don't know if the correction is ending...

Or if a reversal is beginning.

That's why we never predict.

We wait.

Because Continuation is the lie detector.

If buyers truly remained in control, Continuation will prove it.

If sellers have taken control, Continuation will expose that instead.

The market doesn't pay traders for anticipating.

The market pays traders for waiting until the auction has spoken.

🔑 Remember:

The correction isn't over when price stops pulling back.

The correction is over when Continuation proves the original thesis is still valid.
