# Custom Trade Checklist: Your On-Chart Trading Co-Pilot

## Overview

Ever taken a trade based on impulse, only to realize you forgot a key step in your analysis? The Custom Trade Checklist is a simple yet powerful on-chart utility designed to help you remain disciplined and consistent with your trading strategy.

By externalizing your trading plan into a visible, interactive checklist, you can reduce emotional decision-making and systematically verify your criteria before entering or exiting a trade. This tool acts as your personal co-pilot, ensuring you follow your rules on every single trade.

## Key Features

✅ Fully Customizable Rules: Define up to 10 unique checklist items tailored to your specific trading strategy. Examples include "Market Structure Aligned?", "RSI Oversold?", "News Events Checked?", or "Risk/Reward > 2:1?".

⚪ Dynamic Status Tracking: Use a simple dropdown menu in the settings to mark each rule with intuitive symbols like:


  • ✅ / ✓ - Completed / True
  • ❌ / ✕ - Failed / False
  • 🟡 - Pending / Caution
  • ⚪ - Neutral / Not Checked
  • And many more for complete flexibility.


📋 Clean & Minimalist Display: The checklist is presented in a clean, unobtrusive table that can be positioned in any corner of your chart, ensuring it provides guidance without cluttering your analysis.

⚙️ Flexible Configuration:
  • Choose the maximum number of entries to display.
  • Optionally hide disabled checklist items to keep your view focused on what's active.
  • Customize the table title to match your strategy (e.g., "Pre-Trade Checklist", "Swing Trade Rules").


🎨 Complete Color Control: Personalize every aspect of the table's appearance. You can independently set the colors for the title, text, background, border, and each individual status symbol to perfectly match your chart's theme.

## How to Use

Add the Indicator to your chart.

Open the Settings Panel by clicking the gear icon (⚙️) on the indicator.

Define Your Rules:

  • Go through Entry 1 to Entry 10.
  • For each rule you want to use, check the box to enable it.
  • In the text field, write your rule (e.g., "Price above 200 EMA").


Update Your Status: Before placing a trade, go back into the settings and update the status dropdown for each rule based on your analysis.

Customize Appearance:

  • Under the "General" tab, change the table title and position.
  • Under the "Colors" tab, adjust the colors to your liking.


## Who Is This For?

This tool is perfect for:

  • Discretionary Traders who need to enforce a consistent set of rules.
  • New Traders looking to build good habits and internalize their trading plan.
  • Systematic Traders who want a final pre-flight check before executing a trade.
  • Anyone working on improving their trading psychology and reducing impulsive actions.


This indicator does not generate signals or trading advice; it is a utility to support the trader's own process and discipline. We hope it helps you achieve greater consistency in your trading journey!
