Chapter 9

Build the Final Trade Plan

Combine the direction, entry, invalidation, risk, and target.

Put every decision in order

A trade plan is a sequence of decisions. Each step must make sense before you move to the next one. If one part does not fit, pause instead of forcing the trade.

Press Play the plan to follow the RH example from the first idea to the completed plan.

Your final step

Write the plan as one rule

I will consider a long RH trade after price holds above $121.70. I will use $115.01 as the invalidation level and $147.25 as the quarterly target. With $500 of planned account risk, I will buy no more than 74 whole shares.

Update the plan if Eden’s transition levels, AOIs, or price targets change before the entry. Once the trade is open, follow the invalidation and risk rules you wrote down.
