This week's learning challenge: Before every trade this week, write the price, data release or time limit that would prove the idea wrong — before you write the target.
Do it on a demo account if you prefer — the habit is the point, not the result.
Report back here: At the end of the week: how many trades would you have skipped if you had to write the invalidation first?
Share the process and what you noticed. No profit-and-loss screenshots, please.
Educational discussion, not financial advice. Trading involves significant risk of loss.

The habit is useful, and it works best if the invalidation is tied to the structure rather than just a price. For an options position, a useful invalidation might be an implied volatility move, a time-decay threshold, or an event passing without the expected move, not only the underlying crossing a level. Do you plan to tag each invalidation by type, so you can see at the end of the week which kind of idea gets skipped most often?
