Core Entry Logic (Break → Retest)

1. Frame Value: Pre-market H/L, prior day H/L, opening range (OR), VWAP.
2. Acceptance: Body closes & holds above/below OR/VWAP.
3. Retest: Pullback to broken level or VWAP band; see wick rejection + body continuation.
4. Trigger: HL (long) / LH (short) after retest; SL beyond invalidation (structure).

Trend Day

• OR break with VWAP support/resistance holds.
• Stage adds only on fresh break→retest (same risk cap).
• TP1 quick; TP2 measured move; runner trails structure.

Balanced Day

• VWAP magnet; scalp edges → VWAP.
• Harvest TP1s; runners minimal.
• Respect range until acceptance shifts.

Reversal Day

• Squeeze into HTF level fails; trade failure→reclaim.
• Stops tight; trail aggressively on flip.
• Reduce size during red-news windows.

Context Checklist

• HTF bias (4H/D1): trend, weekly levels, gaps.
• Macro tone: yields/DXY, sector leadership (tech/financials).
• Liquidity ladders: equal highs/lows, prior value areas.
• Event risk: CPI, NFP, FOMC, earnings clusters.

Execution & Management

• TP1 mandatory at first structure → move SL to BE.
• TP2 at measured move / next HTF level.
• Runner remains small unless trend day confirms.
• No averaging down; pre-size to keep risk ~0.5%.

Risk & Drawdown Control

• Risk ~0.5% per setup (account currency).
• Daily max loss ~1.5% — stop trading if hit.
• Journal: context → trigger → management → outcome (screenshots).

News Discipline

• Avoid first spike on tier-1 data; trade the second move.
• Place stops beyond structure to mitigate slippage.
• Size down on elevated IV / earnings clusters.
