What is No-trade conditions
Situations written down in advance in which you do not enter, even if the setup "looks like it". A trade skipped by the rules is a result too.
How it works
Example
No trades: in the middle of a range, 30 minutes before major news, after the daily stop, or if the RR to the nearest liquidity is under 1:1.5.
Common mistake
Treating a day without trades as wasted and forcing one by evening.
