Rule 01
Clear Market Structure
The chart should be clean and obvious. Breakout from key resistance, retest of support, higher highs and higher lows in an uptrend, or lower highs and lower lows in a downtrend. If the price action looks messy or random, do not force it.
Rule 02
Confluence
One signal does not cut it. You want 2 to 3 things agreeing. Price above moving averages. Momentum indicators turning in your direction. A Fibonacci level holding. Volume confirming the move. More confirmations equals a stronger setup.
Rule 03
Market Context
The setup must make sense in the bigger picture. Do not long into heavy resistance. Avoid choppy mid-range zones. Consider what Bitcoin is doing. Stay away from low-volume hours.
Rule 04
Risk/Reward
The potential reward must be bigger than the risk. Aim for at least 3:1. Risk $100 to make $300. Targets should be based on structure, not guesses. If the math does not work, the trade does not exist.
Rule 05
Clear Invalidation
You need a stop level where the trade idea is proven wrong. Below support, outside the pattern, or under a clear wick. This prevents emotional decision-making.
Rule 06
Mindset Check
Enter for the right reason. No chasing. No FOMO. Not trading out of boredom or to recover losses. Calm, patient, and planned.
Bottom Line
One high-quality trade is worth more than ten random ones. Wait for the clean, A+ setups and execute with discipline.
