This strategy was decoded from a public trading video but did not clear Strategy Decoder's codifiability bar: the extraction could not pin the rules down precisely enough to be turned into a reviewable specification. It is kept here as a reference post-mortem rather than as a strategy you can trade or backtest.

Why this strategy was archived

Exit management is the half of a trading plan that rarely gets written down. Where an entry is a single decision, an exit framework is a sequence of them — when to take partial profits, when to trail, when to move a stop to breakeven, and when to let a position run instead of banking it early. This entry decodes Bharat Jhunjhunwala's video "Trading Strategy — The Complete Exit Framework to Maximise Every Trade", which addresses that neglected half directly and argues that how you leave a trade determines its expectancy as much as how you enter it.

**Why this entry is archived.** Our extraction scored this video below the codifiability bar. The material is descriptive rather than prescriptive: the exit framework is explained as a way of thinking about trade management, but it is never pinned to operational rules — no objective criteria for when a partial qualifies, no confirmation trigger for trailing versus holding, and no stop or target logic stated precisely enough to reproduce. There is also no anchoring market, timeframe or indicator set to bound the logic against. An entry we cannot code faithfully does not belong in the active catalog, no matter how reasonable the reasoning behind it is.

**What it still offers.** As trade-management education the video is useful, and the framing is the right one: exits deserve the same deliberate treatment traders usually reserve for entries, and thinking in terms of a *framework* rather than a fixed target is how discretionary management is supposed to be structured. Use it to sharpen how you think about leaving positions, then see the exit and trade-management concept hubs, or the active catalog, for decoded entries where the exit rules were specified concretely enough to backtest.

Frequently asked questions

Why is this Exit Framework entry archived?

The video explains exit and trade-management thinking conceptually but does not define objective qualifying criteria, confirmation triggers, or stop/target logic. Our extraction scored it below the codifiability bar we require for the active catalog, since there is nothing complete enough to code or backtest faithfully.

Is the video still worth watching?

Yes — as trade-management education. It treats exits as a deliberate framework rather than an afterthought, which is a discipline most strategy content skips entirely.

What is an exit framework in trading?

A defined sequence of decisions for managing an open position: when to take partial profits, when to trail a stop, when to move to breakeven, and when to hold for a larger move. It is the counterpart to entry rules and it drives expectancy just as strongly.

Where can I find codifiable exit strategies on Strategy Decoder?

The exit and trade-management concept hubs, along with the active catalog, list decoded video strategies where full entry and exit rules were successfully extracted.
