Take the stopping timesContinuity gives , with no overshoot at the first crossing. Stopping preserves the local martingale property, and the bounded case proved in question 4(i) makes each a continuous true martingale.
Every continuous path is bounded on each compact time interval, so almost surely. Hence this is also a localizing sequence consisting of bounded stopped martingales.
