My entry was a little late. I moved the stop to entry once price moved in my favour and was stopped out at breakeven. (DEMO data — not a real trade.)

DEMO: a short with a strategy deviation — the relative equal highs were not clear.
DEMO: this is a sample entry with invented numbers. It is not a real trade and not real performance.

Trade setup — what I saw
In this sample trade, I considered a short after buy-side liquidity was taken, but the relative equal highs were not clearly formed.

Trade notes — what happened
Mistakes & deviations
Strategy deviation: I entered without clear relative equal highs and without a defined partial target.
What I learned
If a criterion is unclear, I should record the trade as a deviation rather than stretch the definition.
Post-trade review
Process: nine of eleven criteria. Outcome: breakeven.
