Tackle Today: You Plan Your Trade… 📓
November 12, 2018
≈ .. and trade your plan! ≈
You will hear coaches at Tackle Trading talk endlessly about trading rules and your trading plan. This is for good reason as trading rules help guide the decisions we make as traders and help keep emotions from taking over. If you have not yet developed trading rules, then make a goal this week to do just that. Here are a few (out of many possible choices) areas for you to think about as you develop these rules this week:
- Will you ever trade against the trend of a stock?
- How will you incorporate support and resistance into your decision-making process?
- What technical indicators will you use?
- What are you exit signals for a winning and losing trade?
- Will you have different entry signals for different strategies (For example will your entry signal for a covered call be different from a bull-put spread)?
A great trading plan is comprised of rules that you methodically follow. Put some time in this week to develop a few rules and if you have any questions on rules email us, visit the Clubhouse or the Coaches Lounge to get feedback on your developing trading plan and the rules that it is comprised of.
