Risk‑first Discipline Routine‑driven

Fear shows up as hesitation, FOMO chases, early stop‑moving, and revenge trades. You beat fear with clear rules, lightweight routines, and pre‑committed decisions. Here’s a practical blueprint.

1) Pre‑Trade Routine (2 Minutes)

1. Breath reset (20s): 4‑in, 4‑hold, 4‑out, 4‑hold (×3).
2. Session check (20s): London/NY? Any high‑impact news in ±15 min?
3. Risk set (20s): Choose 0.5–1.0% per trade.
4. Ticket prep (40s): Paste levels; SL first, then entry, then TPs.

2) If‑Then Plans (Turn Emotion into Scripts)

• If spread expands > usual, then halve size or skip.
• If price runs past entry, then wait for the next plan — no chasing.
• If daily drawdown hits 3%, then stop for the day.
• If TP1 hits, then take partial and move SL per plan (not fear).

3) The Three Commandments

1. Always place SL before entry.
2. Fixed % risk sized by stop distance.
3. No FOMO entries within 2 minutes of high‑impact news.

4) Position Sizing (Copy/Paste)

position size = (account × risk%) ÷ (stop‑distance × pip/tick value)
Gold often uses points; verify your broker’s pip/tick.

5) Anti‑Hesitation Checklist

• Signal includes entry, SL, TP and notes.
• Session and news window are acceptable.
• Ticket filled: SL → Entry → TP1/TP2/TP3.
• Position size matches risk formula.
• Set alerts, hands off. Let the plan work.

6) Common Mind Traps → Fix

7) Post‑Trade Review (R‑Journal)

---- | ---- | ---- | ------ | ------- | ---------- | -------------------- | -----
2025‑09‑02 | XAU/USD | Long | 0.7 | 6.0 | +1.1R | 4 | Followed plan; small slippage
