Pre-Trade Checklist Explained — Measured (PDF Guide)

Every checklist you have been handed mixes things you can settle before the entry with questions you can only answer afterwards. The second kind gets guessed at, and a guess on a pre-trade list is just a way of agreeing with yourself.

This guide prints all twenty pre-registered tests from the study, shows the three gates that emptied them, and turns what survived into eleven checks you finish before the entry - six computed, five decided, each one naming its evidence. This is a 47-page PDF that teaches Pre-Trade Checklist from the first thing you see on the screen through to a written strategy with an entry, a stop and an explicit rule for when the trade is wrong.

Nothing is taught underneath a chart. Every label sits on the candle, the line or the level it is describing, on real BTC, ETH, SOL and LINK charts. There are three quizzes on real charts, each followed by the same chart re-shown annotated with the reasoning, plus faded practice pages where the first steps are filled in and you finish the rest.

WHAT'S INSIDE

Every one of the twenty tests, whichever way it fell -- Leg, geometry, what it reached, what its control reached, and both z values.

The three gates, and how many survived each -- 15 of 20 clear an uncorrected bar, 8 the corrected one, 2 the independent re-count, none the attacks.

Both errors this wave caught in itself -- One changed a result's sign. The other read a hit rate as a ranking when the policies being ranked did not have the same endings.

And eleven checks, each with its evidence named -- Six computed, five decided, none of them a forecast.

WHAT YOU'LL BE ABLE TO DO

Read a table of tests and know which column to ignore.

Say what a corrected significance bar is for.

Run eleven checks in about two minutes.

Tell a checklist item from a review question.

Explain why the list has no market-condition filter.

AN HONEST NOTE

Pre-Trade Checklist is a clue, not a crystal ball. It describes what price has already done. This guide contains no win-rates, no backtest results and no promises about what you will make, because nobody can verify those and you should not trust anyone who prints them. What it hands you instead is a set of rules you can test yourself on TradingView in an afternoon. Educational, not financial advice.
