What’s the importance of considering ‘velocity’ in the given scenario?
‘Velocity’ refers to the speed of price changes and helps determine the strength and conviction of a move.
If the bullish alignment of triggers is followed by low volume, what might this imply?

By analyzing supporting factors such as trading volume, broader market sentiment, and potential resistance or support levels.

How do ‘support’ and ‘resistance’ levels aid in understanding price movements in conjunction with trigger signals?
These levels act as psychological price barriers, potentially reinforcing or contradicting trigger signals based on how price interacts with them.
How might the introduction of a major economic report or news influence the short-term triggers?
Major news can introduce significant volatility, potentially causing short-term triggers to give false or exaggerated signals due to rapid price changes.
