A simple framework, executed consistently.
This is the structure I use every session. It's not the only way to trade — it's the way I've made repeatable.
Market Structure
Identify the dominant trend on the higher timeframe. Map swing points, key levels, and zones where liquidity is likely to rest. Trade with structure — not against it.
Entry Conditions
Wait for price to react at a defined level. The setup must form during a session you actually trade. If conditions don't line up, the trade doesn't exist.
Confirmation Rules
Look for a structural shift on the lower timeframe — a clean break and retest, or a clear rejection. One confirmation, one entry, one risk.
Risk Management
Fixed risk per trade, sized to the stop — never the other way around. Daily loss limit is non-negotiable. When it's hit, the screen goes off.

What I avoid
If a setup involves any of these, it's not a setup.
