Practice rhythm · Practitioner guide

Classify the condition.
Follow the Route.

The Field Guide converts theory into a repeatable market read. It sits between understanding the Framework and executing a Playbook — it classifies first; the Playbook executes second.

Orient, navigate, decide
Orient
Define
Define the Anchor, Formation Zone, Pressure, and probable Trajectory.
Navigate
Observe
Observe Departure, the Active Route, Junctions, and Route behavior.
Decide
Select
Select a Playbook only after the market establishes a navigable condition.
Six questions, in order

Location creates context; behavior determines whether the projected path becomes observable. Do not skip from a Formation Zone directly to a Destination — price must reveal the Route.

01
Formation
Where is price organizing?
02
Pressure
Which boundary shows asymmetry?
03
Trajectory
Which orientation is probable?
04
Route
What pathway is price following?
05
Junction
Continue, transfer, or return?
06
Destination
What objective is supported?
