Global Stocks • Strategic Framework
The Garrison Framework
Defend capital. Advance with evidence.
A rules-based equity framework for identifying liquid market leaders, entering from favorable structure, and protecting capital when the thesis fails.
Confirm leadership
Require alignment between the instrument, its sector or industry, and the broader market regime.
Enter from structure
Avoid emotional extension. Use pullbacks, bases, breakouts, or reclaim levels that provide a defined invalidation point.
Scale with proof
Increase exposure only when price confirms the thesis. Never average down simply to improve cost basis.
Pre-Trade Review
Command checklist
The framework is incomplete until the trader can answer each question before entry.
- Is the broader market supportive?
- Is liquidity adequate?
- Where is the thesis invalidated?
- What event risk is approaching?
- Is the reward worth the risk?
