🎯 TRADE DIRECTION
BULLISH MOMENTUM ⬆️ | Swing Trade Framework

📍 ENTRY STRATEGY: LAYERED LIMIT ORDER APPROACH
Advanced Multi-Entry Technique - "Thief Strategy"
Execute multiple buy limit orders across key support levels to optimize entry execution:
🔹 Layer 1 (Strong Support): 110.000 JPY
🔹 Layer 2 (Mid-Range): 110.500 JPY
🔹 Layer 3 (Technical Level): 111.000 JPY
💡 PRO TIP: Scale your position sizing inversely with each layer - allocate 40% at Layer 1, 35% at Layer 2, 25% at Layer 3 for optimal risk management
Customization: Adjust layers based on your risk tolerance, account size, and recent price action. Tighter layers = higher frequency fills; wider layers = better averaging down potential.

🛑 STOP LOSS FRAMEWORK
Hard Stop Level: 109.500 JPY
⚠️ CRITICAL DISCLAIMER: This SL is a reference point ONLY. Set YOUR stop loss based on:
Your personal risk management rules
Account equity tolerance (typically 1-2% risk per trade)
Market volatility assessment
Your trading experience level
Remember: Your capital, your rules, your responsibility.

🎁 PROFIT TAKING TARGETS
Primary Target (1st Pullback): 111.875 JPY (+0.75 exit point)
Secondary Target (Strong Resistance): 112.500 JPY

Exit Decisions Should Factor In:
Real-time momentum indicators (RSI, Stochastic)
Volume confirmation at resistance zones
Daily market volatility
News/economic calendar events
Your profit/loss objectives
Take profits according to YOUR strategy, not someone else's target.
