Intraday Trading Plan Template for Indian Markets

Core Principle

Many traders collect strategies but do not execute them consistently. The goal of this guide is to convert strategy ideas into specific actions that can be repeated under pressure.

A good framework defines setup quality, entry trigger, risk limit, and review method. When these are written in advance, decision quality improves and performance becomes measurable.

Daily Process Checklist

• Prepare key levels and market regime scenarios before the session opens.
• Take only setups that match your written plan and risk boundaries.
• Use fixed position sizing tied to stop distance and maximum daily loss.
• Avoid revenge trading after losses; pause and reset when discipline slips.
• Log every trade with reason, invalidation, and execution quality score.
• Run weekly review to remove weak patterns and reinforce high-quality setups.

Improvement Loop

Sustainable progress comes from small, continuous refinements. Focus on one improvement at a time, such as better entries or cleaner exits, and measure impact over multiple sessions.

If results degrade, reduce trade frequency and return to high-conviction setups until consistency returns. Protecting capital keeps you in the game long enough to compound skill.
