A short route into the approach, a real chart example and the tools behind my routine.
This may suit you if you run a business or work for yourself and can plan time when trading can have your full attention. Alerts reduce screen-watching; they do not remove the need to be available.

A six-part guide from choosing your time and setting up, through chart decisions, execution and review.
1. Understand the approach
Price action means reading each completed price bar in context: its body, tails, size, overlap and follow-through. Is the market trending, ranging or attempting a breakout? My approach is inspired by Al Brooks. The idea is simple; developing the judgement takes practice.
Moving averages provide reference points on my charts. Alerts tell me when to look. I still weigh the estimated probability, potential reward and risk before deciding whether to act. No chart tells me what will happen next.
2. Study one real decision
Start with Enough for the week, on a Monday. Follow the yellow rectangle on the chart, read what I saw, and consider why I chose to exit. It is one personal example, not evidence of what another trade will return.
As you read, ask: what was visible at entry, what could have gone wrong, and what would I want to review afterwards?
3. Explore what supports the work
See my setup for how TradingView, phone alerts and MT5 fit together. Then explore the tools being prepared, from the free introductory resources to the planned member collection. Downloads are not yet available and membership is not open.
I currently use 15-minute charts, ideally with a substantial part of one to three chosen days a week available. I can work between alerts, but may need to return at several successive bar closes. .
