A weekly level plan is shorter than the chart you want to keep
Most pages that arrive at the desk still carry every line from the month. A weekly plan keeps the levels that can change the next five sessions, and it leaves the rest in the notebook.
Start from the week, not the archive
When a student sits down with six months of daily candles, the first impulse is to honour every prior turn. The Planning Desk begins somewhere smaller: the high, the low, and the close of the week that just ended. Those three numbers are not automatically levels. They are the candidates.
A weekly plan answers a narrow question. Where, in the coming week, would a return to a known price change what you are willing to do? If a line cannot change that, it does not go on the page you will actually use on Monday.
Four lines is already crowded
Kanya asks for no more than four levels on the working page: one support you trust, one support you are unsure about, one resistance, and one price that would cancel the whole map. Students who arrive with twelve lines usually discover that eight of them are round numbers or old wicks with no later test.
The unsure support stays on the page on purpose. Writing 'I am not sure' is more useful than hiding the doubt and then treating the line as firm at the open.
What the notebook is for
The longer history does not disappear. It stays in the notebook, dated, so you can see why a level was dropped. The working page is the one that fits on the desk beside the new week's chart. If you cannot read it at arm's length, it is still an archive.
