Review method
Five steps we teach in every session
This is the markup sequence instructors use on your charts. It keeps momentum indicators subordinate to price structure — the opposite of indicator-first retail habits.
-
Anchor on the monthly and weekly chart
Mark major swing highs and lows, prior year opens, and obvious congestion zones. Grade each level A (three touches), B (two touches), or C (single swing). Only A and B levels proceed.
-
Drop to daily for refinement
Carry weekly zones forward. Add daily pivots that align within the weekly band. Remove levels that sit inside noise — we want fewer lines, not more.
-
Plot momentum at the level, not globally
Apply RSI(14) or MACD histogram only when price enters a graded zone. Divergence without a level is discarded. Alignment at a level earns a watchlist flag.
-
Confirm with volume or range behaviour
At the level, check whether the current candle shows rejection wicks, shrinking range, or volume spike relative to the prior five bars on your execution timeframe.
-
Define invalidation before entry
Write the stop beyond the level structure — not beyond an arbitrary pip count. Target the next opposing graded level. No level on the other side means no trade.
What we exclude on purpose
Our method deliberately omits pattern catalogues, harmonic overlays, and signal-subscription integrations. Participants who need those add them after the level-and-momentum core is automatic. The review room stays focused on horizontal structure and oscillator confirmation because that is where most discretionary traders lose consistency.
