The Trade Cycle

How much of your strategy is actually defined?

Every trade has four parts to it: what puts you in, what gets you out, how big it is, and when you leave it alone. Most traders can describe the first one in detail and have never written the other three down. Twelve questions score how defined yours is at each part, and name the emptiest one.

Parts scored

Definition, scored 0–100 per part. Nothing here measures or implies a financial outcome.

Answer for the strategy you actually trade, not the one you mean to. If a part is only true on good days, it is not defined.

Educational mentorship. Not financial advice. Trading involves substantial risk of loss.
