What’s inside the Trading Plan Starter
This is not a 40-page PDF you’ll never finish. It’s a one-page starting point you can fill in within 20–30 minutes – and keep next to you when you trade.
Your core plays
Short descriptions of the setups you’re allowed to trade, when they are valid, and when to stay out.
Risk & money management
Clear rules for position sizing, max risk per trade, maximum daily loss and when to stop trading.
Execution & review
Simple checklists for pre-session, during the session and post-session review – like a professional.
Who this template is for
This is for traders who are tired of improvising and want a simple starting point for a real plan.
- You’ve been trading for a while, but results are inconsistent
- You often trade more when you’re down than when you’re up
- You know you need a trading plan, but you never sat down to write one
- You prefer clear, practical structure over vague motivation
FAQ
Is this for beginners or advanced traders?
The template works for both. It doesn’t tell you what to trade – it helps you define and organise your own approach in a professional way.
Do you send signals or trade alerts?
No. I don’t send signals. This is about building your own structure and discipline, not copying someone else’s entries.
Why is it free?
Because most traders never make it past “I should make a plan someday”. If this template helps you take your trading more seriously, you’ll understand exactly what The Samurai Trader stands for.
