How to trade the daily plan (start here)

If this is your first time reading our daily plan, begin with the session date and symbol. The plan is a structured reference for BTC and ETH USDT perpetuals. It does not decide whether a setup is suitable for you, and it does not require you to trade.

Step 1: Match the plan to your chart

Plans are organized around the UTC daily candle, which closes at 00:00 UTC. The plan for a new session uses the session that just closed. Check the date, BTCUSDT or ETHUSDT symbol, and the contract on your platform. Our reference venue is OKX USDT perpetual swaps. Venue prices, mark prices, and chart settings can differ, so make sure you are comparing like with like.

Do not use a plan for one symbol to interpret the other. Their levels, current prices, and contract details are separate. If the date or instrument does not match, resolve that before considering any reference.

Step 2: Read the map before the scenarios

The Pivot is a central reference based on the completed session. The Value Zone frames a range around that reference. Support 1 and Resistance 1 may appear when available. Together, these provide context for where price is relative to the prior session. They are not entries and do not tell you that a move is due.

Next, read the bias as a short description of context. It is not a command. A bias can coexist with scenarios in either direction, and price can move in a way that changes how relevant the context is. The plan's long and short sections each need their own conditions.

Step 3: Check the trigger and invalidation

A failed-breakdown long generally describes a move below a ranked reference, a reclaim, and acceptance above it. A rejection short describes a test above a reference that does not hold. In both cases, the stated trigger matters. Touching a level is not necessarily the same as meeting the trigger.

Read invalidation before considering the first target. Invalidation is the condition that makes a scenario no longer relevant. The first target is a nearby reference to review if the setup develops. These items help you frame decisions, but they do not remove market, venue, or account risk. Decide your own risk limits before any position.

Step 4: Wait when conditions are missing

If price is between references, the plan may offer no immediate setup. If the trigger is absent, wait or continue observing. A written scenario is not a signal to anticipate the trigger, and the presence of two scenarios does not mean both should be traded. Keep the plan alongside your own chart and account rules.
