Start with structure
- Identify higher highs/higher lows or lower highs/lower lows.
- Mark obvious support and resistance zones on higher timeframes first.
Use volume for confirmation
- Breakouts with rising volume are generally stronger than low-volume moves.
- Divergence between price and momentum can signal trend fatigue.
Plan the trade
- Define entry, invalidation, and target before placing the order.
- Never widen stop loss just to avoid taking a loss.
