Planning · Field Notes

From markup to trading plan

Annotation without a plan becomes art. A plan without annotation becomes wishful. Trading plan development at Jyzex bridges the two on purpose.

Draft trading plan pages beside a marked chart ready for review

Start with surviving marks

Only levels that passed peer critique enter the plan draft. If a mark died during the workshop stress pass, it does not reappear as a “secret” entry trigger later.

Write four columns

Keep risk language dull

Exciting adjectives belong on the chart narrative, not in sizing. We prefer bands tied to account comfort and distance to invalidation. During Trading Plan Studio we strike phrases like “add aggressively” unless the annotated structure defines the add zone.

Test against history lightly

Walk three past sequences with the draft in hand. You are checking clarity, not proving a holy grail. If the draft requires constant mid-trade invention, return to annotation — the plan is asking the chart for details it never marked.
