How I filter every trade

I am not right more often than most traders. I just stop myself from taking the trades that were never going to work.

H

Higher Timeframe Structure

Before anything else, I check whether the higher-timeframe chart is clean. A level only counts if price has respected it more than once, one touch is a guess, not a level. If the structure is messy, I skip the pair, no matter how good the entry looks lower down.

M

Market Direction

Once the structure holds up, I check which way the market wants to go and how far it has already moved. Parabolic runs and counter-trend setups get filtered out right here, before I spend any more time on the chart.

P

Price Position, Higher Timeframe

Where does price currently sit inside that higher-timeframe range? This tells me whether the direction I just confirmed still has room to run, or whether price is already stretched too far to chase.

P

Price Position, Lower Timeframe

I drop down a timeframe and apply one rule: only look for entries in the top 30% or bottom 30% of the range. The middle third is noise, and it's where most traders lose patience and force a trade.

E

Entry Signal

Before committing, I check correlated pairs and the dollar index for agreement. If everything lines up at the same level, conviction goes up. If they disagree, I stand aside, even if the setup looks tempting.

E

Entry Trigger

This is the only step where an order actually gets placed, always a limit order at the level, never chased. My re-entry plan is decided before I click anything, so a missed fill never turns into a revenge trade.

Run The Filter

Clear every letter before you take the trade. If it doesn't clear 6/6, it doesn't get taken.

0 / 6 cleared

Not cleared, 6 steps left
