Good morning everybody welcome back to another stream. Hope you guys are doing great Pretty interesting day yesterday. I mean no weekend, I guess However, you want to call it pretty interesting We sort of drop down hit into some nice sort of bids hit into the 1600 level that we were looking for last week So I mean generally all around pretty good No real surprises Right now we're sort of building our way up. So see what happens up happening Sort of hitting out into that similar sort of area. I can just solve this Sort of cluster of longs our already liquidated so looking for sort of potential sort of see if they reverse off of this right here I Mean in terms for London's trades And just sort of post up in the discord and sort of really early morning because Mina, I wasn't really Yeah, I was a really good sleep. So I said, you know what it's post up But pretty much sort of bounced off of here. I gave you sort of very free test You can see within sort of one or two classes. You can identify I Mean was in like 30 minutes you identify if you want to be long or short But it just sort of changed the bias within training you I mean within sort of Bookmap is like super easy. Just so there you go. You see that sort of potential sort of bullishness if we were really orange here like if we're like this over there But then you see that bearish sort of climb here where you see that additive of longs right back into a previous long area That's something that you guys can be super easy to get that and it's sort of a pivotal point being the V lap So you can see how just two 15 minute bars can either make the difference between along or a short and Most people will be like, ah, you know what it's maybe I long on the clothes of that bar But you see as soon as you see that sort of climb here You're out. You're just saying you know that you see that sort of bearish climb And if you're not out by then you're out by the second one definitely So getting some build up longs finally sort of like that thing you see it's sort of Now doing the opposite where it's just stacking shorts on the way down So did that here see how that ended up turning out for it Hopefully if we get that same reaction, we can get a potential sort of Further sort of climb see where this ends up coming down into But again, you sort of that sort of heavy set Short into slow classes and slow build ups of Short traders who are antsy about that algo Yeah, I mean it's been pretty much following What we've been looking at anyway The majority of the part So we can comes in you're seeing that there you go pulled in moved out outside structure pushes down I'm back into holds this area here. So that's sort of really good for it But ends of climbing bits of heavy on this side currently in terms of longs being stacked up But we'll sort of look at that a bit closer here They're going to have coming back into this sort of point Let's see if you sort of collect short traders here and then sort of finds its footing and pushes up That's what you're looking for for a sort of a bullish sign nice little sort of I'll go a nice little sort of bullish Sort of area here. I mean you created that sort of half extra Second half here. We had that sort of volume defied and you sort of above this area of creating this area of trap traders Definitely sort of pushing that boundary, but again, you do have this area where you have a range Develop you probably sort of fine-tune that a bit further And you can see the natural progressions from time zones and there we go There's also a resistance that we're sort of meaning up into So heavy set it's sort of a breakout long I would advise against that you're probably looking for a retest at the work best The worst you're looking for this just to be like done with And I would ask you like what's in infatuation with trading algo sure It's got some nice sort of shorts here and there that you can have capitalized on But generally there's no reason to force yourself to trade coins if they're not perfect I mean if they're not sort of at support levels or at these areas where you can find these I Mean here's he said because it's basically Second leg and this is second leg to a second leg So that here's not too bad, but you're looking for it to try come back here in general, I don't think algo is a very strong coin anyway, so I would look to it as Potentially just say yeah, just don't don't don't trade it And then the infatuation of trading all coins that it baffles me I just stick with trading basics and you should be able to Do do well. I shot the top but was Account at the moment in Sembo get some Yeah, I mean if anything just if you don't have much money in the account just use it practice Entries, so just only take perfect entries try practice your discipline And you can slowly build up that account Like I mean here's ETH ETH has had I mean look you could have entered here There's areas here, but it's less than stellar in this area here I mean you could easily slide all the way down and You're looking at this from this point. I mean it was much better than Bitcoin at this region here for short Like there are certain times when something's more optimal than another and it's a lot of clear sign It's just focus on those things Yeah, ideally like practice ETH PEC Like then you won't have to sort of search for like coins and rather than searching for the next pump and dump You're more or less just looking for the net The next sort of trade, I mean here this is sort of easy sort of look as okay There we go. There was heavy sort of resistance This is sort of a heavy sort of resistance here similar to this but without sort of this very creating a nice little V Maybe we reach all the way down to here and then we sort of Climb back into there, but I was a bottoming of Absence of bottom that we maybe you want to consider is 10-22 But I mean there's some support at this area here, so if we hold here, it's not too bad But again the reasoning what you want to see is this This then probably this reverses back into it then pushes there we go, so There's bitcoins of eating into that sort of bed Oh, it's all heavy sort of volition pushing into that See if we can get some shorts out of it Here's sort of what yes has been up to again minus sort of this hour that I was at E&E so And then cut no rhythmic car. I don't know much fun But there you go There's your sort of resistance that we sort of built up to a sort of heavy sort of long That's a nice little roof for our overheads I mean we probably would have had more depending but generally this sort of nice and clean Got a lot of sort of sellers already you can see sort of the a bunch of sort of iceberging On this bottom side here, so a lot of bullish signs and these sort of cells here It's definitely sort of very palatable if you're sort of looking at that you can see that sort of really large sort of iceberg Straight ahead And even hit those tops on the sort of this side creating that sort of push up But you're looking at this and saying, okay, the majority of the icebergs are We're on the downward swing.  I think it's just waiting for yes to guide its hand and then from there It'll sort of do the do I do the same But generally there you go. You see that sort of sell off off of that sort of Resistance here to again, this is why you probably might want to take partial profits at these sort of highs And you can see that coming down. You can always add back around probably wherever it settles if it settles here You can add back here.  I mean, you can see that sort of stuff out into that Area here, but you can see a lot of spot by just instantly entering and wouldn't enter the market after just paperhanding here And they only buy it. They only buy green candles. So I think that's the safest assessment So try and look for a bit of a sell-off Larger sort of sell-offs occur around here. So we see you can get a large sort of sell-off Generally, you can see that's how tells our signs of these sell-offs being absorbed. You can see Right over here, whereas this movement took us all the way here. This cell Just very much just only took us here Yeah, sure go ahead so you can see the red distance is doesn't add up Speaking about long questions someone asked me a question on Twitter. I Said I would answer can you get a little Okay, well you ask it someone asked Can you give a little clarification of absorption and testing? I got a little confused on these two topics. I Yeah, okay, I don't know what you And the person is asking I don't know why the exactly sort of mean by testing but absorption is pretty sort of simple options just The sort of like and then if you just break down the actual word is just hate to use definitions within itself absorption is just the Game absorption of bids.  So instead of moving sort of the distance of Z It sort of pushes and and it sort of Hits out and says here look you see all this cell here. So this is a cell of Cell of 600 generally a cell of 600 will cause a lot of movement. So this was 400 this is about 600. So you see this is about 600 here to here Do you see 600 hit here will cause? let's say I mean Parking it will cause this much distance move But you can see the distance move in fact was a much less off of this sort of cell volume Though someone came in with a bit of a 600 and spondent kind There's someone much bigger collected sort of bed here and is averaged into sort of a bed there So it's it's some level of bullishness associated with that But again, it just goes back to the fact that a lot of people just have to average this down so Take that as like a point sort of slowly average into a bitch You can see it's swung and it swung for a bit held out, but gave you sort of bearish sort of vibes within sort of Futures as you can see future sort of coming in saying I did the same but just tapped tap tap Reversed it's that whatever they did a blob. They just sold it off to the Was sort of much sort of a great figure you can see these buys in just like the opposite of plastic That's 700 someone came in on the opposite side and just said, okay. Thank you for hitting your stops I'm gonna I'm gonna buy those up the bed I've been seeing on Monday Asia when 24 hour session changes Asia does some deep movements either directions and they in New York it reverses Monday force moves until Then reverse a sort of good Saying it that's like I mean, yeah at some point. I mean, so we are understand that sort of idea comes from Just like trading weekdays. I mean if you go into that and we just look at sort of the weekdays from Monday to Friday Wednesday and Friday you expect sort of maybe some level of reversals to just because There's only a finite amount of days you can sort of trade and and there's only fine amount of Hours within those days to do stuff. So As a sort of Person whose job is to make money off the market They're trying to be the most professional possible They can't be opportunity for hours a day, but they can have multiple people do that So you have one person in Asia one person in New York and one I mean London one person in New York Each of these sort of different traders different desks as they are named Has its own sort of targets and and sort of Gold they have to achieve for their session before they hand it over or shake Do a shake it. Yeah hand over to a next sort of desk so It's not always that one will do this one will do other it just depends on Okay, if this person comes in says, okay, here's what I did. I consolidated. I took out short traders Uh, they're all out, uh, they're pretty much all out in terms of without going too high and without sort of seeing those bits here Uh, here's what you probably want to do next or here's what you can do So London comes in says, oh, uh, okay. Thank you. You guys trap these guys here.  Just go on so if you don't expect if something doesn't happen in one sort of, uh One sort of time it'll probably save it for the next time over and and so on It's probably based on the fact that it is It is sort of how they probably work And it is sort of I mean not probably it's just how they work Uh, I kind of uh work on weekdays and trades at certain time zones and the sessions Okay Yeah, I think I think that's sort of the trouble with most people is like they can Yeah, the charts, uh, I mean that's why these are so nice. I mean you just you're on the charts not 24 seven But that's a certain set times You're on it at Asia just for like an hour or two. Just see Set up alerts. I mean you can see this sort of range here. There's your stockpunt in Asia Comes in there's your stockpunt in London comes in There's this entire stockpunt of uh burst levels. I mean, I think, uh There's your entire stockpunt of burst levels and uh Asia got protected here The London got taken out in terms of it's an entire range Then it sort of pushes on the retest came here and you can see you only really need to be awake for 10 o'clock EST 10 o'clock EST is sort of your golden sort of child I mean around 10 o'clock. I mean is this is this close here You sort of start getting things happening and you can see that sort of stockpunt Sometimes the move comes a bit earlier. Uh, and sometimes it's within sessions But normally you're sort of fine within sort of 10 o'clock But I mean even if you're sort of uh, uh awake at certain times, uh, or can't do stuff at certain times You can just look at higher time frames and do swing trades. I mean swing trades are relatively profitable Uh Is it in crypto? I mean, it's not always the greatest just because it's so volatile you can change on a dime But Good morning spicy, uh, but it's it's still sort of uh, I mean like in some instances is much better So like if you came in monday you saw this you's like, okay, you know what you're preparing to show You came in and you can you still help show it all the way from monday and then you sort of Came in and say, okay, you know what there's your show. I'm looking for 1600 And that's it. It comes down just misses it pushes up and you're so probably thinking by this point is just cut it uh I mean, it's like Yeah, that's the thing with crypto. It's like It's trading it requires a lot of time a lot of dedication, but I mean you can sort of If you can offhand lead just every every cell sort of uh Key hour and key time just sort of glance at it You're fine Because other than just sort of setting it up in the morning before you leave and saying, okay, this this and this are my levels There's nothing really you can too much do if you have sort of time constraint It's just a lot of preparation. So you The next thing you can uh next thing Uh Next thing you all you need to do is just wait for the certain type amount of time and just wait for the sort of Sort of the nice picture. So let's let's say, uh, this was a week Weekday rather than the weekend, uh, you know that I mean, uh, this is actually this retreat to the weekend You know that this sort of daily imbalances is always functional regardless Uh and we can uh weekends, especially have sort of tendency to do, uh Sort of a lot of sort of mean reversion to sort of saturday's sort of, uh Saturday sort of level you can see on mondays. They sort of very much peeled away Uh, and and you can see it started with the daily imbalance being very close. It's like came in on that sort of, uh New York time and it sent and it will always work You use your stuff and come in very sort of anorexic and very sort of just waiting on something and bam As soon as sort of uh, asia opens or asia starts Or es opens for asia It sort of just does uh, it takes the bed Right now here. They just sort of wick or sort of again, maybe look for a retest bit lower. Maybe 16 16116 So see if there's any sort of major changes just again plateauing Not the sort of best uh sort of showing for for a bullishness, but generally not too bad I mean you got some buys here and there maybe looking for it to undercut a bit further Give you a nice little outside push down. Give you a nice little half batman Again, uh, you can use those and change me, uh, if if someone's familiar with half batman called half batman I like calling it an outside structure, uh, and then sort of uh Sort of pills way to choose trains as we like to call them I mean every now and again, but again interchangeably. It doesn't matter what you call it Again semantics is never important. Uh Unless you're pedantic, uh, but All that really matters is you understand, uh, why you're doing something And usually you're I'm only ever doing something based off of time of volume Like actually we can go back to the sort of time aspect All you need to do like for like to trade sort of, uh, major key sort of times You can see sort of, uh, these, uh bills coming in at 130 1130 You just find out the direction and then the trend prior And leading up to it is if there's a build up along as you're probably doing the opposite Again, you're just trying to do the opposite of the majority And that that's why when I when you see those sort of large bids Come in and large cells come in.  I want to buy someone's selling a lot here Very much panic selling. You're buying in someone's panic selling at this level. You're buying it basically And that's the basic key strategy just Be contrarian to, uh, the, uh, majority And you should do a lot better. I know that sounds mean, but I mean it is what it is It's me Uh, in terms of longer scale, I mean 1600 was something again we're looking for for quite a while. It's just, uh, I mean 1600 just above here There's just above point and again, you could have held short like From sort of this diamond here or even this one here And this is this then just becomes instead of becoming day trading. It just becomes swing trading or like Mid-term dependent like very short mid-term trading There's volume in the environment since amount of market participants have dropped so sharply Again, it's that's why you don't look at sort of absolute volume. You just look at relative volume And that's why I like delta so much.  I'm just looking at the difference in the distribution of the volume I'm not saying oh, there's low volume. There's high volume compared to Compared to what's calling A couple of months ago and so on and so forth. So Market participant dropping is not an issue as long as there's participants Uh, there's you can trade it Uh, and the how you know that is you just look at the candlesticks Like if I if I come over here and I just say look, let's see the candlesticks here Are there a wide variety of candles? Pat candlesticks types and then I would say yes and so a lot of some doji's a lot of breakers, but Very sort of varied. So there's a very sort of liquid liquidity was in this market If I go into a coin like dot, I think it's a dot spot. Uh, and just, uh There you go.  What are you doing?  You can see this sort of on the daily as well It's just very much Very scared sort of move here and avoid liquid coins Uh, and then so on Uh, Asia have a lot bigger range. Uh, they always so go deep, uh, then reverse it depends on if they want to Uh, so open up 511 I mean, they always do horrible stuff. Then I treat Uh, I mean leg up Um, leg down Yeah, I mean It's not always case, but you majority time. Yeah, you're fine in saying that that's why I like I don't like I don't like saying black and same inside this will do this this will do this is the high probability of it doing this But mostly it's just okay. You see Asia's range here. There's just a pun. There's a level we're looking for but more identity, uh More better Better than this and saying, okay, you know, I did this because I'll just stop on other range You just saw we saw a very sort of large set off here Secondary test fish a bit lower and then pushed above Simple as that and so saying oh, yeah, it's a pattern. It's a recognizable pattern. It's just okay There was your volume There was a large set off they went down for a second leg here fish for an extra bid Didn't get too much and then pushed off From there and from here again, this was where You could have had a potential too long As it closed off of this but again, I already discussed how this ended up looking bearish and within one candle and You could have easily taken that down and waited I should not even take that. I just waited I could have just waited for the actual session to open and then this is where I decided, you know what? Uh, I'm very much. Uh, I very much need to sleep So I said, okay, I already know this is going to go down. So I don't really care And I can catch this in New York Uh, if I if I had a bit more energy, I would have waited up until 3 a.m You could have caught that sort of add that sort of nice little uh What I'm here just trades back into there And then you could have traded into New York But again, you don't need to train trade all time frames And now I'm a bit more awake. So I slept from here to here I only missed so much for the market Uh, now you look for a retest eventually, uh, and then, uh, sort of climb above the Sort of, uh, shift sideways. We can then sort of bounce, uh, very nicely. I guess We'll see what ends up happening again. It's just a matter of, uh, trying to identify what time we are But it's sort of very, uh Amiable that we are sort of coming down Uh, just ahead of sort of the 10 o'clock area here So we're sort of pushing into sort of volume and we're sort of Already setting up, uh ahead of time to be slightly bullish than bearish Again, or in a sort of a lot range again This is what I mean, uh, and we saw that sort of those cells off here But those greens come in and that sort of plays out as a nice little half Batman Pushing down back into this thing So maybe we get that retest back at the VR maybe slightly higher. We'll see what ends up ultimately happening I think we're just waiting for a large amount of sort of liquidations, uh Based on this side as you can see not much sort of long liquidations Uh in this sort of current sort of visible chart, and if you zoom out you can probably see a bunch As you can see, uh, there's a decent amount but most of that came on this you can see that was That move was pretty much a liquidation move Uh, then there was your point here second leg fished for these little bits and then they moved on Took out that stop high you can see that again Large sort of volume trapped here Second one came in under you could have shorted on that second leg Again, if you're unsure just wait for a second leg if you don't get a second leg just miss it Simple as that just don't greed for stuff Because there's so many opportunities just waiting on second legs that are like much more perfect and Not much more perfect just a lot more Presentable in terms of trading uh directionally And then you can sort of move from there Message I want to see why I missed the appointment Uh, see that sell off. Uh, just bear with me a second while I figure out something Ah interesting 745 Oh, okay Uh, yeah, I am so bad with time now Uh to As you see sort of pulling in selling off still a bit or same more more bullish slowly slowly getting there Now I sort of want to shift sort of yes, see how that's sort of presenting yourself Uh Didn't my stop Good short I always think it's a bad short. Uh, just I mean market will try to recover. I mean yes, it's looking bearish All hell.   I mean if this sort of springboards bitcoin springboards and the extension I'll go could ultimately springboard I mean All we can do is look for sort of market structure breaks. Uh, just scandals Using the market scanner Uh See Short and boarding short and boarding. Yes, go. Let's do a crypto list Uh, let's go in aunts See your own futures Let's scan. Let's see if we can find anything and and I mean if you want to find and start just looking for things. Yeah, you can but Ideally, I'd recommend just learn how to just trade the basics because there's no point in you scanning for coins that are Going to pump and dump if you don't know how to trade them and all don't don't know what to do with yourself when when you actually see coins fbt no way Any touch that was successful In that name coming back for I already got a couple uh of sort of uh heavies up broad and is Uh, so that was ATT ATT ATA Just coming in below. There's your monthly. There you go Two nice months Here we we can come to that just a bit higher. I guess. Yeah, nothing else Yeah, pretty much on low and all fronts It's just been taking out liquidity left right and you can see this just look at those stops here a nice little break You can potentially uh, look at uh, 13502 as resistance Uh, oh no There you go There's sort of resistance up top. Let's see if we can come in sort of push in Have a loot Above comment Yeah, I said, uh I don't even need to look at it I said ideally you're not looking to short this you're not looking short today And unless unless in the next sort of Half hour I say yeah bitcoin looks like a short just don't short if bitcoin doesn't look like a short everything doesn't look like a short Simple as that if es doesn't look like a short then yeah, you're probably not trying to short anything That's some black phone event happens That's why you're trying to find coins to install real short. You're trying to long Algos not necessarily long because it's a it's a rescue.   Maybe even all the way down here. Who knows Yeah, I mean Like yeah, I mean it stands to say yeah, and I'm not really sure it's just retesting how to find no shit coins I mean trade equities And even then it's probably a bit A bit No, uh, as you can see which you're looking for retest into this and look you saw that sort of So come in and sort of touch this area around this area and then push down Uh, you're not looking to short this. You're probably looking to get into an entry um Maybe get something good out of it, but generally no Uh, I mean as long as you're not trading one coin and just forever and ever I mean like you can see look there was two trade there's like a bunch of uh A lot of time to enter into a short here A lot of time to enter in short here. I mean it's less time, but it's still time Then here's like, okay, you know what there's there's nothing. Let's not let's not consider it I mean it's just going below these previous stops Maybe there's something inside here. We'll see But generally I don't care for eight coin either I don't care for both things. I think At this stage in life who does Loathe is just like it's surrounded by sort of uh What's going in bad news potentially news you don't want to associate with Sort of a good project like okay, it's it's a potential scam. Basically. It smells bad. Basically It shits things. Okay Look at we range Seven out ten if you need to break out Yeah, the weekly range. Yeah I mean, I mean sometimes I mean if we look at uh Sort of uh last week and then you just look exclusively look at sort of what happened last week You see monday came in we marked our monday high Tuesday came in trade internally just trapped at the 50 percent from the Uh previous sort of swing that we marked out. There's just sort of 50 percent area here Of that sort of large sort of consolidation swing. You can see just trades here trades here bearish bearish Very bearish bearish. You can see just how it plays Uh, and it sort of builds its sort of course up here where it was Touched like how we were bearish on that 50 here. We're bullish on this we're bullish on this We're bullish on each of these touches as they sort of develop Weekend range. Ah, yeah Oh, yeah, definitely So weekly range. Yeah, sure. Um You know, yeah, you're right Because we have a lot of setups. I mean like Generally, if it sort of builds itself up because I mean if it sort of climbs Climbs ends the weekend and decided. Oh, yeah, you know what there there we go But yeah, not not too bad. I mean, he's just trying to see where inventory is at the end of Friday's trade session But I mean you could clear a tendency even though there was hopes of bullishness here just being up here in this sort of premium market premiums Uh From from this point, we're just building up sort of uh buyers and we trade bear bear patterns here We trade bull patterns here if you're like if you're really That stuck in life Just do that If one thing just goes over your head Like there's a time and place for everything and it's called college I see how I'm I'm sorry Had to do it Like so if you see like a bullish pattern like oh head and shoulder Bull flag right right here. It's just you know, you're looking at it. It's like nah nah If you see a bear bearish pattern here, you're probably like, okay. Okay But generally don't trade those So we what weekend? Yeah, that's a nice little weekend range Yeah, weekend has a lot of uh finding characteristics. I mean you have that sort of the weekend wall that goes up and you can see that so I mean Let me actually find this properly. Uh, there we go There's saturdays one. I mean saturdays level came in pretty high push down Sort of opened up monday this monday There's monday here Imagine that's part of it. There you go. Just slow slow sort of stop Basically, you can just include sort of asian to it It's asian utc time just comes in slightly slightly sort of early. So I mean pretty much just fade asia, I guess is the key I mean, it's again just a four blanket statements I mean, they were building cause Our cause led us to this point here, which we sort of We're looking for maybe a bit earlier and didn't get And they just left it open they left it open because they were like collecting lungs and then pushed it down Simple as that. I mean, there's nothing more to be said realistically I mean, there's a lot I can say but nothing sort of currently that's useful. That will change sort of opinions Again, if you're going to retest this area here, you're probably sort of golden You don't need to have actual bookmark, but you just use web bookmark if you're really stuck on If you can't use bookmark or not getting some lungs here, which might drive price a bit lower But generally we're collecting more and more short traders so Which is a lot better than the alternative But as long as we're sort of collecting a bit higher above sort of at least 1600 Or even around 1600 not too bad, but as long as we sort of start collecting those shorts We're sort of sitting pretty If we start dipping into it too much We're sort of looking at it as like, you know what they've they've really sort of stretched this pretty far They're probably not interested in in those side of traders. So That's some air to the caution But generally, uh, it's a nice little retest could sort of bounce. Uh, just looking at sort of timing wise Based off on new york, it could sort of present itself nicely then it will give you a nice trade again Yes, very bearish down Hopefully finds a bounce around here We'll see what ends up doing again if you can sort of break sort of uh, 3962 0.5 You're sort of looking at it. It's like, oh, you know, that's good And they probably might even and then just sort of bounce off because it sort of traded under The daily resistant and I don't think I showed the chart yet I think I actually have I don't know. I don't know anymore uh again Do it for yourself Mark out all these coins. You have these you have the list of coins that uh broadening Are taking out stops on either side Uh, short term wise, uh, potentially, uh, look at these as a potential sort of, uh Coins to look at chart Uh, I don't know for today. We'll look at it. Uh, deeply tomorrow I'm just not In the not even mid. I'm just not in the state in a state to where I can just sit here for a bit longer and just do that Okay, so 15 minutes come in Uh, sort of, I mean it came in there. You can see it just comes in under There's sort of where you get your breakout traders If it comes in six above here, I mean you're fine above this point And you can see you're very much, uh Living, I mean you can see that here here and here traps here pushes down It liquidates here goes slightly lower Doesn't matter as long as you sort of start seeing sort of signs of life And willing to bounce here. You're sort of good Good for today I would say this is There's a better probability of doing that. You can see those that builds up here You know, that was like decent amount of shorts in that area You can set push down and a lot more sort of liquidations Bouncing here could could definitely sort of see itself climb a bit further Uh off of this So I think that leaves uh leaves it Yeah, that's pretty much wraps it up for today Uh, thank you guys so much for coming.  Peace


The study found that early summer drought conditions in the Rocky Mountains have a significant impact on ecosystem productivity, with four-summer drought sensitivity being spatially heterogeneous and primarily dependent on plant type and elevation.
