Custom Manual Trading Checklist | OB & Momentum

Overview

Custom Manual Trading Checklist is a customizable TradingView indicator designed to help traders follow a structured trading plan, confirm their setups, and maintain discipline before entering a trade.

The indicator provides an on-chart checklist dashboard where traders can manually track their trading conditions, including higher-timeframe momentum, Order Blocks (OB), lower-timeframe momentum breaks, Common Sense confirmation, liquidity targets, risk management, and trading sessions.

Unlike automated trading indicators, this tool does not generate BUY or SELL signals. Instead, it helps traders organize their analysis and make decisions based on their own trading rules.

Key Features

1. Fully Customizable Checklist

Nine customizable trading conditions.

Rename each checklist item.

Enable or disable individual rules.

Manually mark conditions as completed.

Track completed and pending conditions.

Automatically calculate checklist progress.

2. Multi-Timeframe Trading Workflow

The default checklist follows a structured top-down trading approach:

1H Momentum + 1H/45M OB: Identify momentum and wait for price to return to the Order Block.

15M Momentum Break: Confirm a momentum break on the 15-minute timeframe.

5M Momentum Break: Confirm a momentum break on the 5-minute timeframe.

3M/1M Common Sense: Apply manual entry confirmation on the lower timeframes.

Targets: Select liquidity for an impulsive setup or an Order Block for a pullback setup.

Zone Rule: Wait for a zone break OR confirm a 15M/5M momentum reversal.

Risk Management: Review stop-loss, risk exposure, and trade management.

Daily Goal: Check daily trading objectives and limits.

Timing: Confirm that the trade matches the planned trading session.

These conditions are default examples and can be renamed to match different trading strategies.

When all enabled conditions are manually checked, the dashboard displays "ALL CHECKED" and "READY."

These labels indicate checklist completion only, not a validated trading opportunity.

Checklist items are marked through TradingView indicator settings, not by clicking directly on the dashboard.

The indicator does not execute trades or provide automatic entry and exit signals.

The checklist is not automatically reset after each trade or trading day.
