Introduction
In today’s fast-paced financial markets, every second counts,
and every decision matters. Whether you’re trading forex,
stocks, or cryptocurrencies, preparation is key. This guide will
walk you through a simple yet effective Pre-Trade Checklist,
helping you ensure that each trade you enter is well thought
out and aligns with your strategy.
Why is a Pre-Trade Checklist Important?

It ensures consistency, minimizes emotional trading, and helps
you focus on trades with the highest probability of success. By
developing a routine, you make fewer mistakes and become a
more disciplined trader.

Market Conditions
Assess the Market
Before entering a trade, always determine

the overall market conditions. Are we in a
bull market (prices rising), a bear market
(prices falling), or a range-bound market
(prices fluctuating between key levels)?
Understanding the market’s behavior is
crucial for setting the right trade direction.
Bullish Market: Look for long (buy)
opportunities.
Bearish Market: Focus on short (sell)
trades.
Range Market: Identify key levels for
potential breakouts or reversals.
Tips: Use higher timeframes (daily, weekly)
to gain a broader perspective on the
market's trend.

News Check
Check for
Market News
Markets are highly reactive to news, especially around major economic
releases, central bank decisions, and geopolitical events. Always
check the economic calendar before entering any trades. You can find
crucial updates on platforms like Forex Factory or Investing.com.
Key Events to Watch:

Non-farm payrolls
Central bank announcements
(interest rates)
Earnings reports
Political events (elections,
major agreements)
Tip: Avoid trading around high-impact
news unless you're specifically
targeting these events with a news-
based strategy.

Trading Setup
Confirm Your Trading Setup
Your setup should match your trading

style. Whether you're a trend follower, a
range trader, or a breakout specialist, stick
to the strategies you’ve tested and are
comfortable with. Consistency is key.
Trend-Following: Look for pullbacks in

strong trends.
Range Trading: Buy near support, sell
near resistance.
Breakouts: Identify consolidation areas
and wait for price to break through key
levels.
Tip: Avoid “chasing” trades. Wait for the

perfect setup according to your strategy.

Risk
Management
Implement Risk Management
Every trade should be based on a clear risk

management plan. This includes setting a
stop loss to protect your account from
significant losses. Determine your risk per
trade (usually 1-2% of your account balance)
before entering.
Stop Loss: Set this at a logical level where

the market would invalidate your trade idea.
Position Sizing: Adjust your lot size to control
your exposure.
Tip: Never risk more than you're willing to lose

on a single trade. Stick to your risk
management rules no matter what.
cording to your strategy.

Entry Trigger and

Take Profit
Wait for the Entry Trigger
Don't enter a trade without a clear entry

signal. Whether it’s price action, candlestick
patterns, or a moving average crossover, wait
for confirmation before pulling the trigger.
Examples of Entry Triggers:

Candlestick patterns (pin bars,
engulfing patterns)
Break of support/resistance
Indicator crossovers
Tip: Be patient. The best traders wait for the

right moment to enter.
Define your take profit target based on key

levels or indicators.

Emotional Check and

Trade Management
Emotional Check
Before entering the trade, check your

emotions. Are you feeling anxious, excited, or
frustrated? Emotional trading leads to
impulsive decisions, which can result in
unnecessary losses.
Plan for Trade Management

Decide how you'll manage the trade after
entering. Will you move your stop loss to
breakeven after a certain profit is reached?
Will you take partial profits? Planning ahead
removes emotion from the decision-making
process.
