The problem

Impulsive entries and vague exit strategies lead to avoidable losses and emotional trading. Many traders enter multi-day positions without calculating overnight risk or defining the exact point where their thesis becomes invalid.

What it does

• Formalizes raw trade ideas into structured, actionable swing trading plans.
• Calculates precise position sizing based on account equity, risk percentage, and stop distance.
• Identifies multi-timeframe trend alignment across daily and hourly charts.
• Maps out specific entry zones, invalidation levels, and multiple exit scenarios including time-based stops.
• Assesses overnight risk and gap potential to prevent catastrophic portfolio damage.

Why this beats prompting it yourself

This skill enforces a rigorous risk management framework that standardizes your trading process. It prevents the common mistake of forgetting to account for catalysts or skipping the math on position sizing, ensuring every trade meets your defined risk-to-reward criteria before you click buy.

Use cases

• Drafting a detailed plan for a breakout setup ahead of a specific earnings catalyst.
• Calculating the maximum safe position size for a high-volatility micro-cap swing.
• Defining trailing stop rules and partial take-profit levels for a multi-week trend trade.
• Auditing a potential trade to see if the technical invalidation level provides an attractive R:R ratio.
