Personal Model module · lesson 31 of 32

A rulebook with no filler

Narrow your system down to an A+ setup, skip filters, and weekly iteration.

3 min · 7 steps

  1. Step 1 · The rules

    As many rules as you can check in seconds.

    Every line is a yes-or-no on the chart. “It feels strong” doesn't make the book.

  2. Step 2 · All lines yes

    All lines are yes: it's a trade.

    BTC 15m, Sep 2, 2024: sweep 0.13%, MSS after 9 candles, stop 0.63% of price, target +3.59R.

    The best trade in the model sample (+3.59R), not typical: targets were hit in 25 of 88. Rules don't make a setup profitable: they cut out what isn't one.

  3. Step 3 · A “no” line

    One “no” line — no trade.

    SOL 15m, Aug 23, 2025: there was no close above 200.82, so the MSS line is “no”. Entering anyway gave −1R.

  4. Step 4 · Who checks

    What your Pact checks, and what you do.

    Your Pact checks risk per trade, the stop, and the daily limit against the journal on its own. Sweep, MSS, and target are checklist items you tick yourself.

  5. Step 5 · Find it yourself

    The MSS line: where is it?

    BTC 15m, Sep 2, 2024: the MSS must come within 10 candles of the sweep. Tap the MSS candle.

    Practice on the chart

    This is a Find it yourself task: tap a candle or a level, and the lesson tells you right away if you got it.

  7. Step 7 · Rule

    Without a rulebook, there's no trade.

    1
    sweep at least 0.12%
    2
    MSS within 10 candles
    3
    stop up to 1% of price
    4
    target at least +1.5R
    to your Pact

    I don't enter without a rulebook.

    “No plan” goes on the stop list: a trade with this tag is a rule break, and your streak counts it.

Practice on the chart

Next is the trainer: test the rule on a chart where you don't know the answer yet.
