Macro bias
Is the dollar bid or offered? Are yields rising? Is the market in risk-on or risk-off mode? This sets which direction you lean.

The 7-layer framework
Seven layers before the click.
A fixed order of questions that every trade has to answer, from the macro backdrop down to the review. Scroll to pass through each layer.
Layer by layer
Layer 1 of 7
The questions
What each layer answers.
One question per layer, and the tool in the platform that helps you answer it.
Session context
Which session is open, and what has the previous session already done? Mark the Asian high and low before London opens.
Precision ScalperLiquidity pool
Where are the stops resting? Equal highs and lows and obvious swing points are where price tends to look first.
Liquidity HunterStructure shift
Did price sweep the pool and then shift structure? Without a shift, a sweep is only a move.
Order Flow ProEntry model
Where exactly do you enter? Pick one model and define it before price gets there.
Precision ScalperRisk execution
Where is the idea wrong? Size the position so that being wrong costs a fixed, small share of the account.

Worked example
A sweep, read layer by layer.
03
Pool mapped
Three touches at the same high leave a shelf of buy stops above it.
04
Sweep, then shift
Price takes the stops, fails to hold above, and breaks the last higher low.
06
Risk defined
Invalidation sits above the sweep high, so the size follows from that distance.
No chase. Wait for acceptance.
