Strategy
A structured and repeatable plan that a trader follows to make buy and sell decisions, incorporating specific entry criteria, exit rules, position sizing, and risk management parameters. A well-defined strategy removes emotional decision-making from the trading process.
Example
“His breakout strategy required a daily close above resistance with volume at least 150% of the 20-day average before he would enter, with a stop placed one ATR below the breakout candle.”
