A clean trading routine [Advanced/Professional]
Prepare your environment
> Build your watchlists on Tradingview, keep a few clean charts and 1-2 for think-drawing on
> Have your log, strategies, noting table (for setups) and watchlist in excel
> Have an accessible database (numbers, comments, and screenshots)
Weekend
> Clean up your charts, alerts, Tradingview tags.
> Review your excel watchlist notes, and look at your Tradingview watchlists on D1.
> If you want to, look at economic calendars and high impact information, do some research.
Sunday 10 pm (London Time)
> Get ready to micro-manage any trade close to SL if spreads widen.
> Check where everything opens and what happened over the weekend in the world you might have missed, especially if there is a big gap somewhere (Oil, NatGas, EURUSD during french elections...)
*** Weekdays ***
Morning (8 am, or later if you sleep late it's ok we aren't day traders)
> Check your positions (should be a tag on TV) and trail, get out, or don't. Manage them.
> Check all watchlists charts on H4/H1 with your excel notes on screen 2, or half of your only screen.
TV also has "headlines" news on the right banner, below the alarm symbol.
> When stumbling on an interesting pair/commodity, update its entry in excel, place an alert, and in some cases tag it.
Mid-Afternoon (3 pm)
> Check all watchlists charts on D1, remember what's going on, get a global view of everything.
> Get into anything out of the ordinary, take a closer look at any missed alert.
Evening (10 pm)
> Get ready to micro-manage any trade close to SL if spreads widen.
> Check your entire watchlists just like in the morning.
> Tag and set an alarm on interesting setups, if they are close to entry set an order or stay late.
In between the 3 daily full scans
> When an alarm goes off or you just notice by yourself a forex pair or commodity doing what you want, enter it in your "noting table" in excel, and see if it fills enough criteria. Make sure to also compare the setup with past similar setups you got in your database. If it does fill enough criterias look for entries, and when close to entries with all necessary conditions filled: set an order with your broker.
> Log your trades as you get filled, then update the log when you get out, or when it went to target and you missed.
> Do research & go out during free time and during the weekend. In the week never be away more than 8 hours in extreme cases. A lot can happen in 8 hours.
> Make sure to tag and pay attention to anything even something not great, a lot can happen in 8 hours. Better to waste a few minutes a day on mediocre setups (that you don't take!) than miss a monster and listen to sad songs for a week.
> No point looking at your positions & potential positions every 5 minutes if you have alarms & check 3 times a day there should be no need to be OCD.
