How to Read Entry, Target, and Stop Loss

Mastering the Execution

Getting a signal is only 10% of the battle. The other 90% is executing it correctly without letting emotion interfere with the math.

1. The Entry Zone

Never 'chase' a signal. If the price has already moved 5% past our suggested entry zone, the risk/reward ratio has shifted against you. Wait for a retest or move on to the next setup.

2. Tiered Take-Profits

We believe in 'paying ourselves' along the way. We typically provide 3-4 TP targets. When TP1 is hit, we often move our Stop-Loss to the entry price (Break-Even) to eliminate risk from the trade.

3. The Invalidation Point (Stop-Loss)

A stop-loss is a mathematical necessity. It is the price at which our narrative or technical thesis is proven wrong. Never move your stop-loss further away hoping for a bounce. This is how small losses turn into account-ending disasters.
