Before entering this trade, answer honestly:

• [ ] Is this trade in my written plan — or am I reacting?

(If it’s not in the plan, it’s not a trade.)

• [ ] Is my risk fixed and acceptable before entry?

(No adjusting size “just this once.”)

• [ ] Am I calm — or trying to make something happen?

(Bored, frustrated, or rushed = no trade.)

• [ ] Would I take this trade if the last one was a winner?

(Prevents revenge and tilt.)

• [ ] Am I okay with this trade being a full loss?

(If no, position size is too big.)

If any answer is no → don’t trade.

That’s it.
