  • Identify key support/resistance levels and potential trade setups
  • Update watchlist based on current market conditions

Trading Session

  • Execute planned trades according to predefined rules
  • Monitor open positions without emotional interference
  • Document all trade entries/exits with reasoning

Post-Session Review (30 minutes)

  • Note any execution errors or emotional reactions
  • Update trading journal with performance metrics
  • Prepare preliminary watchlist for next session

Weekly Trading Routine

Performance Review (1-2 hours)

  • Calculate weekly ROI, win rate, and Sharpe ratio
  • Compare actual results with QuantWave forecast probabilities
  • Identify patterns in both successful and failed trades
  • Review adherence to risk management rules

Strategy Assessment
