# Custom Trade Checklist: Your On-Chart Trading Co-Pilot
## Overview
Ever taken a trade based on impulse, only to realize you forgot a key step in your analysis? The Custom Trade Checklist is a simple yet powerful on-chart utility designed to help you remain disciplined and consistent with your trading strategy.
By externalizing your trading plan into a visible, interactive checklist, you can reduce emotional decision-making and systematically verify your criteria before entering or exiting a trade. This tool acts as your personal co-pilot, ensuring you follow your rules on every single trade.
## Key Features
✅ Fully Customizable Rules: Define up to 10 unique checklist items tailored to your specific trading strategy. Examples include "Market Structure Aligned?", "RSI Oversold?", "News Events Checked?", or "Risk/Reward > 2:1?".
⚪ Dynamic Status Tracking: Use a simple dropdown menu in the settings to mark each rule with intuitive symbols like:
📋 Clean & Minimalist Display: The checklist is presented in a clean, unobtrusive table that can be positioned in any corner of your chart, ensuring it provides guidance without cluttering your analysis.
⚙️ Flexible Configuration:
🎨 Complete Color Control: Personalize every aspect of the table's appearance. You can independently set the colors for the title, text, background, border, and each individual status symbol to perfectly match your chart's theme.
