Field Notes
Field notes
Short articles rooted in technical analysis training — levels, breaks, and pullbacks you can practise on your own board.
Read slowly, then mark a live chart. These notes support coaching; they are not trade recommendations.

Writing a breakout checklist you will actually read
Keep the card short enough to glance at between candles — five lines beat a manifesto.
