#MyWeekendTradingPlan #MyWeekendTradingPlan


Most weekend trading plans are trash. Why? Because they’re built on hope, not structure. Liquidity dries up, volume thins, and amateurs confuse “quiet” with “safe.” If your weekend plan doesn’t start with risk control, you’re not trading — you’re donating.
Here’s how I’m approaching this weekend, step by step.
First, context matters more than entries. Weekend price action is not about trend continuation; it’s about range manipulation. Big players rarely initiate fresh positions — they probe liquidity, hunt stops, and reset positioning for Monday. If you’re trading breakouts blindly, that idea is weak. Weekends punish breakout chasers.
Bitcoin is my anchor. I’m not emotionally attached to direction. If BTC holds above key intraday support with declining volatility, I expect slow compression, not fireworks. That means range trading only. If BTC loses support on low volume, I don’t chase the breakdown — I wait for fake downside expansion and reclaim. Weekend dumps without volume are often traps. If you don’t understand that, stay flat.
Ethereum comes second. ETH usually exaggerates BTC’s moves on weekends. That makes it useful for short-term mean reversion, not hero trades. I’m watching ETH only near extremes. Mid-range trades are lazy and statistically weak.
Altcoins? Most are noise. Weekend liquidity makes alts unreliable unless there’s a clear relative strength narrative. If your alt thesis is “it hasn’t pumped yet,” that’s garbage logic. I only consider alts showing BTC-independent structure with clean order flow. Everything else is ignored.
Leverage is reduced. Anyone increasing leverage on a weekend doesn’t respect market conditions. Thin books amplify wicks, not profits. Small size keeps you alive; ego kills accounts.
Invalidation is defined before entry. No “let’s see how it goes.” If price violates structure, I’m out without debate. Weekend markets don’t reward stubbornness.
Most important rule: no forced trades. If the market doesn’t offer clarity, I do nothing. Flat is a position. Sitting out is discipline, not fear.
This weekend isn’t about making headlines. It’s about surviving noise, protecting capital, and being positioned mentally — not emotionally — for the real liquidity when the week opens.
If your weekend plan doesn’t sound boring, controlled, and slightly paranoid… it’s probably trash.
Trade less. Think more. Live to trade Monday.
