Academy Trading Plan
Academy Trading Plan
This Trading Plan will be a well thought out plan which you will compile
and stick to throughout your journey
The aim is to become a disciplined and consistent trader and the way
you can do so is by setting a list of rules to stick to when analysing/
entering/managing and exiting trades
This plan may change and evolve over time as you become more
experienced but for now, once you have understood the strategies and
you are satis ed that you have your own set of rules and con uences
to enter a trade, each trade should be taken using the strategies
detailed below
Trading Pair
Select the currency pairs you will trade to achieve consistency in the
markets. A maximum of 3 pairs should be chosen for analysis, if you
only trade 1 or 2 pairs that is ne. I would recommend once you have
your 3 pairs, take time studying how each pair moves

.
Risk:Rewar
Decide on the minimum Risk to Reward for every trade taken
Ideally you should look to be risking 1:3 risk to reward per trade as an
absolute minimum to allow your strategy to play out

My Trading Strategy

incorrect way of trading, so trade the way you understand the charts

trades for? What is your daily goal etc

Timeframe

you use for trade entries

?
How will you make sure not to revenge trade if you lose
How will you stay calm and make calculated decisions when in serious
pro t or when you are for example on your third losing trade in a week
How many wins or losses in a row will it take for you stop trading for
the week?
Will you have a set pro t target/percentage per week and once you
have reached that target you will stop trading

What time of day will you be looking for setups/ potential trades?
(Maybe London open or New York open
What time will you stop trading? (Maybe after 4pm on a GBPUSD pair
due to low volume, or maybe you will only trade in London and Asia if
you trade for example GBPJPY)
When will you review your journal and trades for the week
When will you rest and have time away from the charts

My Notes
Be Con den
No matter how much your plan, you will have great days and bad days
This is just trading, if it was easy everyone would do it! You have made
a decision and taken one step forward on the path to consistency, so be
con dent with your analysis, stand by your analysis and be true and
honest with yourself
If a trade went wrong, why? Use it as a lesson to learn from and come
back stronger
At times you may feel like giving up, believe me I know the feeling but
no one got to where they are today by giving up when things get
dif cult
Just know when you reach the level you aspire to be at, it is all worth it!
