Pre-Trade Discipline Gate

Overview

Evaluate whether a planned manual order should proceed before it is placed at the broker. This skill reads a local checklist plus optional market-regime, circuit-breaker, and trader-memory-core artifacts. It produces a pre_trade_discipline_decision artifact and can link that artifact back to the related thesis without changing the thesis review schedule.

The gate is intentionally offline. It does not place orders, cancel orders, call a broker API, or fetch market data.

When to Use

• Immediately before placing any manual entry order
• When a candidate has passed chart validation and position sizing
• After a recent loss, to avoid revenge trades during the cooldown window
• When the workflow has an upstream exposure_decision and circuit_breaker_decision
• When you want checklist adherence to be visible in later trader-memory-core reviews
