## QUICK REFERENCE: SIGNAL VERIFICATION SUMMARY

**Print this section to keep at your desk for quick reference.**

### All 5 Entry Signals (Must All Be Met)

| Signal | Condition | Check |
|--------|-----------|-------|
| **1. Uptrend** | Price > SMA20 > SMA50, all rising | Price: ☐ Higher Lows: ☐ Higher Highs: ☐ |
| **2. Volume** | Recent volume > 1.5x average | Volume ratio: ☐ |
| **3. Breakout** | Price breaks above resistance | Above resistance: ☐ On volume: ☐ |
| **4. Pullback** | Price pulled back to SMA20/support | Distance: ☐ (0.5-2% optimal) |
| **5. Bull Structure** | Higher lows, RSI 40-70, no red flags | RSI: ☐ Higher low: ☐ No flags: ☐ |

**ENTRY ONLY IF ALL 5 ☑️**

### Exit Rules (Any Trigger = Exit)

| Rule | Trigger | Target |
|------|---------|--------|
| **1. Profit** | Stock up 40% from entry | Primary exit - take profits |
| **2. Stop Loss** | Stock down 20% after 7 days | Hard stop - protect capital |
| **3. Time Decay** | 14+ days elapsed | Exit before theta accelerates |
| **4. Partial Take** | 30-50% profit reached | Optional - lock in gains |
| **5. Expiration** | < 14 days to expiration | Mandatory - exit to avoid theta collapse |

### Position Sizing Formula
```
Account Value × 8% ÷ (Call Premium × 100) = Contracts
Example: $1M × 8% ÷ ($4 × 100) = $80,000 ÷ $400 = 200 contracts
```

### Daily Loss Limit
```
Account Value × 2% = Maximum Daily Loss
If today's loss ≥ this limit, STOP TRADING FOR THE DAY
```

### VIX Multiplier
```
VIX < 12:       120% position size
VIX 12-18:      100% position size
VIX 18-25:      80% position size
VIX > 25:       40% position size
