Check this before you trade:

1. Trading Wisdom

   Don't waste your energy on trading bad setups. Is the setup forced? Is this trade worth your time?

2. Self-Check Before Trades

   Before every trade, ask yourself: Is this in line with the strategy? Have all the factors been considered? Entry, exit, stop, take profit – is the setup clear? How will you handle the trade under different circumstances?

3. Mindset Matters

   If it hits the stop loss, is it a mistake or part of the system? What is your mindset? Are there any emotions involved? Have you projected onto someone else? Are you experiencing tilt? Is your head clear, and do you feel good? Will you regret this trade? Are you ready to accept the loss? Are you trading for profit or emotions?

4. When to Trade

   You can trade if:

   • It aligns with your strategy.
   • You are confident in the trade.
   • You are ready to accept the loss.
   • There are no emotions involved.
   • You are fully focused on trading.

5. When to Chill

   No trade if:

   • Emotions are present.
   • You are not confident in the trade.
   • You are not ready to accept the loss.
   • You are distracted.
   • You are in a bad mood.
