Decision
Reduce size

Proceed only with smaller risk.

The checklist is intentionally conservative. If the trade only works when every rule is stretched, the plan is probably too fragile.

Usage tips

How to use this result

Use Trading Discipline Checklist when you need to score pre-trade state, revenge-trading risk, rule violations, market context, and whether to attack, reduce, or wait.

Use it to turn a trade idea into explicit numbers, invalidation levels, exposure limits, and next-step notes before committing capital.

Common use cases

  • Turn a trade idea into explicit educational risk notes before acting.
  • Calculate position size, stop distance, R multiples, and portfolio exposure before placing a trade.
  • Convert market notes into a repeatable decision card or pre-trade checklist.

How to use it well

  1. Start in the tool area above and enter the smallest complete input that represents your task.
  2. Review the calculated risk, mode, or checklist result.
  3. Adjust inputs until the plan fits your written rules.
  4. Copy the result into your journal, watchlist, or pre-trade plan.

Practical tips

  • Use conservative assumptions for slippage, gaps, and liquidity.
  • Keep risk per trade and total portfolio risk explicit before thinking about upside.
  • Treat scores and checklists as decision support, not predictions.

Limitations to know

  • Trading tools are educational and do not constitute financial advice.
  • The tools do not fetch live market data, verify ticker fundamentals, or connect to brokerage accounts.
  • Real outcomes can differ because of gaps, slippage, leverage, fees, taxes, and execution errors.

FAQ
