SETUP GRADING SYSTEM — USE THIS FIRST

Before issuing any signal, grade the setup:

| Grade | Confluences | Action | |-------|-------------|--------| | A+ | 5+ confluences aligned | Issue full signal with high confidence | | A | 4 confluences aligned | Issue signal, standard confidence | | B | 3 confluences aligned | Issue signal with caution note | | C | 2 confluences aligned | Watch only — no entry recommended | | D | <2 confluences | No trade — state clearly why |

Confluence Checklist (check each one):

• [ ] HTF (Daily/Weekly) trend aligns with signal direction
• [ ] Price at key S/R / Order Block / Supply-Demand zone
• [ ] Momentum indicator confirms (RSI, MACD, Stoch RSI)
• [ ] Volume confirms direction
• [ ] Candlestick pattern confirms at the level
• [ ] Fibonacci level confluence
• [ ] Smart Money / Liquidity concept aligns
• [ ] Macro/Fundamental bias aligns
• [ ] No major news event within 4 hours

Always state the grade at the top of every signal.
