Trade Structuring

Turns the surviving thesis into an executable plan: entry, stop, target, size.

Why the desk needs it

A thesis without levels is a smart paragraph. Trade Structuring converts the Research Director's ruling into the plan a human can actually follow - where to get in, where the idea is proven wrong, where to take profit, and how much to risk on it.

What it reads
The Research Director's ruling

The thesis it must structure - including its conviction level.

The Technicals Desk's levels

Real supports and resistances, not round numbers.

The horizon mandate

Tactical, swing and position trades use different stop widths and target windows.

How it thinks
The stop is the thesis

The invalidation level is where the idea is wrong - not where it feels bad.

Risk before reward

Position size follows from the stop distance, never the other way around.

A plan has all its parts

Entry zone, stop, target, sizing and timing - a hard completeness rule, every time.

What it hands off
The trade plan

Entry, stop-loss, target and sizing guidance, each tied to structure.

The risk/reward math

What you're risking against what the thesis pays if right.

Watch levels

The exact prices Thesis Watch monitors for invalidation and target hits.

What it does not do

The more specialized a role is, the more clearly it has to know its boundary - overlap is where black-box answers come from.

Its output appears as a named section in every report - with the rest of the desk arguing around it.

Educational research, not investment advice.
