Technical Execution (Entry/Exit Timing)
CRITICAL CONSTRAINT (FR-021): Technical analysis is NOT a trade initiator. Investment ideas originate from L1 (macro), L2 (fundamental), or L3 (strategy). This skill serves ONLY entry/exit timing — when to buy, when to sell, how to manage the position. Never use technical patterns as the primary reason to enter a trade.
Preflight
Run the canonical pre-flight sequence. See contracts/preflight.md. Verify the analysis request has an existing investment thesis from L1/L2/L3 before proceeding.
Protocol
- Thesis Anchoring — identify the originating investment thesis (which L1/L2/L3 skill produced it)
- Entry Timing — apply L4 frameworks (Wyckoff, Market Profile, volume analysis) to optimize entry
- Exit Planning — define profit targets and stop levels based on market structure
- Trade Management — scaling in/out plan, position adjustment triggers
