Before Opening a Position (Must Do 3 Items) - Confirm that the current market conditions fully meet the entry and exit criteria of the trading system (such as K-line patterns, indicator signals, etc.), with no ambiguity. - Calculate and determine the position size for this trade, strictly adhering to the preset risk rules (e.g., no more than 2% of total funds per trade). - Pre-determine the specific prices for stop-loss and take-profit levels, ensuring these prices align with system logic and are not adjusted based on subjective expectations.
2. During Position Holding (Must Follow 2 Items) - Immediately set an automatic stop-loss order in the software after opening the position; manual monitoring should not be used to temporarily widen the stop-loss range. - During the holding period, avoid frequently switching market interfaces or checking irrelevant news; only operate when the stop-loss/take-profit levels are reached or when the system issues an exit signal.
3. After Closing a Position (Must Do 2 Items) - Regardless of profit or loss, immediately record key information of this trade: whether it was executed according to the system, any disciplinary violations (if any), and the emotional triggers at the time. - If there were disciplinary violations, additionally note “Potential risks associated with this behavior” (e.g., holding a position that could lead to significant losses), to reinforce memory.
