The truth is, I don’t spend hours staring at charts. And it’s not because I’m guessing or moving fast — it’s because the rules are already defined. Once you know when to enter, when to exit, and when to stay out completely, trading becomes much calmer.

In this episode, we break down the full structure.

What We Cover:

The Real Problem: Emotional Trading Without Rules

Most beginners don’t struggle because they’re incapable — they struggle because there’s no structure. Entries aren’t defined, exits aren’t planned, and position sizes are inconsistent. That leads to chasing breakouts, buying near resistance, and reacting emotionally mid-trade.

The Core Framework (Simple & Repeatable):

1. Only Buy at Support — Never at Resistance
   If price is at support within a bullish structure, consider it. If it’s near resistance, wait. This one rule eliminates many bad trades.
2. Use Confluence to Confirm Support
   Look for multiple tools aligning (moving averages, Fibonacci levels, prior breakout zones, Gann levels). Don’t force setups — let price come to you.
3. Choose Your Trading Avatar Before Entry
   Decide if the trade is active, swing, or momentum before you enter. Execution depends on identity. Mixing styles mid-trade creates confusion.
4. Journal Before You Enter
   Write down why you’re entering, where support is, what confirms the trade, and where you’ll exit. If you can’t explain it clearly, skip it.
5. Strict Position Sizing
   Scale in slowly. Never go too heavy too soon. Manage risk through sizing — not emotion.

The Outcome:

When rules are predefined, decisions become faster and clearer.

• No debating mid-trade.
• No emotional exits.
• No chasing.

Trading becomes structured instead of chaotic — and structured trading feels completely different.

The strategy, at its core, is simple:

• Buy at support.
• Use confluence.
• Know your exit before entry.
• Manage risk with position sizing.
• Don’t chase.

That’s it.
