3 | ICT: Alright, folks, it's non farm payroll Friday, not for professionals. So I | ||
4 | have my full screen shown here. So you guys can see the time and all that | ||
5 | |||
6 | 2 | ||
7 | 00:00:30,600 ~-~-> 00:00:45,510 | ||
8 | business. Here's that same demo account that I said to keep track of that number | ||
9 | for savings isn't going to change. The market looks like it may want to drive | ||
10 | |||
11 | 3 | ||
12 | 00:00:45,810 ~-~-> 00:01:03,180 | ||
13 | under this low here. But not before coming up in here. I like this order block | ||
14 | right here. So I thinking that price will want to hit that. | ||
15 | |||
16 | 4 | ||
17 | 00:01:09,030 ~-~-> 00:01:22,440 | ||
18 | Maybe hit that and then come down and take the stops here. So the idea is use | ||
19 | non farm payroll to rally at first thinking it's gonna break out higher, and | ||
20 | |||
21 | 5 | ||
22 | 00:01:22,440 ~-~-> 00:01:25,290 | ||
23 | then sync it down and take the stops at 3520. | ||
24 | |||
25 | 6 | ||
26 | 00:01:38,280 ~-~-> 00:01:42,180 | ||
27 | Okay, and we're about to do that now. | ||
28 | |||
29 | 7 | ||
30 | 00:01:49,980 ~-~-> 00:01:59,490 | ||
31 | similar words, this is going to be a short, or run down here for about 50 pips | ||
32 | or so. Now, I would never take this trade with live money, because it's not on | ||
33 | |||
34 | 8 | ||
35 | 00:01:59,490 ~-~-> 00:02:10,170 | ||
36 | payroll numbers and anything can happen. Worst case scenario it could whip | ||
37 | through. Now, if this was a non payroll, I'm sorry, I'm not even no words. If it | ||
38 | |||
39 | 9 | ||
40 | 00:02:10,170 ~-~-> 00:02:23,520 | ||
41 | wasn't non farm payroll analyses using this example here, I would look for sell | ||
42 | here and use a 30 PIP stop to it would be well above here. But I think the draw | ||
43 | |||
44 | 10 | ||
45 | 00:02:23,520 ~-~-> 00:02:25,560 | ||
46 | is going to be on the low. | ||
47 | |||
48 | 11 | ||
49 | 00:02:38,760 ~-~-> 00:02:55,020 | ||
50 | Here's your run. Here's your order block. Again, it would be above your stock | ||
51 | will be above this high. Here's your old high back here on the daily. | ||
52 | |||
53 | 12 | ||
54 | 00:03:21,900 ~-~-> 00:03:38,070 | ||
55 | So 3599. That's where the stock would be 30 pips above from that level here. | ||
56 | We've already punched through these highs. And we'll see if there's any give | ||
57 | |||
58 | 13 | ||
59 | 00:03:38,070 ~-~-> 00:03:49,500 | ||
60 | back to make a run for the liquidity risk falling below the low on euro. See | ||
61 | we're approaching it equal high, and we'll probably see it trade back down, make | ||
62 | |||
63 | 14 | ||
64 | 00:03:49,500 ~-~-> 00:03:55,770 | ||
65 | it lower low on the day. And we watching for that 2020 level. What's the | ||
66 | downside objective | ||
67 | |||
68 | 15 | ||
69 | 00:04:02,850 ~-~-> 00:04:16,440 | ||
70 | given the nature of non farm payroll is to run, take out the side that's easiest | ||
71 | to knock off. In other words, we've seen market making lower moves today. So | ||
72 | |||
73 | 16 | ||
74 | 00:04:16,470 ~-~-> 00:04:27,690 | ||
75 | there obviously are people short. So there's two ways of using that information. | ||
76 | If it were not a non farm payroll Friday, the run back up here to get to this | ||
77 | |||
78 | 17 | ||
79 | 00:04:27,690 ~-~-> 00:04:42,270 | ||
80 | bearish order block go short there or run the buy stops on those individuals | ||
81 | that are short. They don't need to go very high above this high to run their | ||
82 | |||
83 | 18 | ||
84 | 00:04:42,270 ~-~-> 00:04:51,300 | ||
85 | stops. And then reject and go lower and reach for 35 2035 big figure and maybe | ||
86 | even down to 3495 | ||
87 | |||
88 | 19 | ||
89 | 00:05:54,360 ~-~-> 00:06:04,170 | ||
90 | Never concern myself with the actual numbers because the numbers themselves are | ||
91 | already factored in. They're actually old data, it is making it public. And they | ||
92 | |||
93 | 20 | ||
94 | 00:06:04,170 ~-~-> 00:06:08,070 | ||
95 | use those numbers as a smokescreen to run out liquidity. | ||
96 | |||
97 | 21 | ||
98 | 00:07:21,510 ~-~-> 00:07:25,650 | ||
99 | Notice the unwillingness to go above 35 at of any significance. | ||
100 | |||
101 | 22 | ||
102 | 00:07:51,990 ~-~-> 00:08:02,070 | ||
103 | So they had high initially on day three got to midnight, New York time, failing | ||
104 | to get to 35 at institutional level at levels, a good nice number for | ||
105 | |||
106 | 23 | ||
107 | 00:08:02,070 ~-~-> 00:08:11,070 | ||
108 | institutions and power orders in and around, they sold off, they come all the | ||
109 | way back up now this to hit the 35 at level now, which also effectively takes | ||
110 | |||
111 | 24 | ||
112 | 00:08:11,070 ~-~-> 00:08:25,410 | ||
113 | out to buy stuff on any holders that were short. So the idea is that cables been | ||
114 | going up for a while. And anyone that has been profitable shorting this morning, | ||
115 | |||
116 | 25 | ||
117 | 00:08:25,950 ~-~-> 00:08:33,570 | ||
118 | they are not allowed to be profitable. So non farm payrolls used to upset those | ||
119 | orders. And they take those individuals out | ||
120 | |||
121 | 26 | ||
122 | 00:08:53,910 ~-~-> 00:09:08,640 | ||
123 | few minutes past the release of non farm. Now, if it were a non event, like it | ||
124 | was non farm payroll, not included in today's calendar, I would be short right | ||
125 | |||
126 | 27 | ||
127 | 00:09:08,640 ~-~-> 00:09:15,420 | ||
128 | now. I wish I would be short at this moment where we're at here. | ||
129 | |||
130 | 28 | ||
131 | 00:09:22,020 ~-~-> 00:09:36,060 | ||
132 | So that would be my short. I'm not wasting my demo because I want to keep it | ||
133 | clean with actual demo executions, but I'm just giving you a pay per trade idea. | ||
134 | |||
135 | 29 | ||
136 | 00:09:36,660 ~-~-> 00:09:39,210 | ||
137 | So I'm demoing on a demo. | ||
138 | |||
139 | 30 | ||
140 | 00:09:44,370 ~-~-> 00:09:56,880 | ||
141 | But you guys see that same account the account history. I've been doing trades | ||
142 | recently. So it's been a few days since it's been done but that's where I'm at, | ||
143 | |||
144 | 31 | ||
145 | 00:09:57,450 ~-~-> 00:10:12,240 | ||
146 | to go back and look at my other screenshots and recordings, you'll see that that | ||
147 | balance matches, nothing's changed. And that's a dual accountability folks. | ||
148 | |||
149 | 32 | ||
150 | 00:10:12,870 ~-~-> 00:10:19,950 | ||
151 | Nothing to be afraid of, and nothing to be fearful of, unless you're losing. And | ||
152 | people don't want to see that. | ||
153 | |||
154 | 33 | ||
155 | 00:10:25,800 ~-~-> 00:10:41,970 | ||
156 | I'm typically on the sidelines till the third Tuesday. So I was waiting for the | ||
157 | first two weeks of trade through on every year in January. And then I pick up my | ||
158 | |||
159 | 34 | ||
160 | 00:10:41,970 ~-~-> 00:10:52,770 | ||
161 | actual interest in actual entries and such on the third Tuesday of every | ||
162 | January, and then I go light, like a very, very light on leverage. And I just go | ||
163 | |||
164 | 35 | ||
165 | 00:10:52,770 ~-~-> 00:10:54,150 | ||
166 | very, very slow. | ||
167 | |||
168 | 36 | ||
169 | 00:10:59,520 ~-~-> 00:11:10,950 | ||
170 | I go very, very slow, with the amount of leverage until I get into February. And | ||
171 | once I get into February, then I start working towards a normalized amount of | ||
172 | |||
173 | 37 | ||
174 | 00:11:10,950 ~-~-> 00:11:19,050 | ||
175 | leverage. And by the fifth of February, I should be in the thick of things. | ||
176 | |||
177 | 38 | ||
178 | 00:11:29,160 ~-~-> 00:11:47,400 | ||
179 | Again, note the unwillingness to want to go above 3580. We just went above these | ||
180 | initial daily highs. And the theme is, markets been going higher, or cable, we | ||
181 | |||
182 | 39 | ||
183 | 00:11:47,400 ~-~-> 00:12:00,720 | ||
184 | priced in a little bit of a rally in here, built a premium in on price and they | ||
185 | sank it going into London, they ran it up, took the stops out about the initial | ||
186 | |||
187 | 40 | ||
188 | 00:12:00,720 ~-~-> 00:12:11,640 | ||
189 | high of the day. And I would be looking for this thing to start working its way | ||
190 | lower. Now because it's Friday, we could see a rather lackluster event as well, | ||
191 | |||
192 | 41 | ||
193 | 00:12:12,180 ~-~-> 00:12:20,460 | ||
194 | you could just go right back to the middle of the range. And this is how you do | ||
195 | that. Okay, assuming that this high is the high of the day, this is something | ||
196 | |||
197 | 42 | ||
198 | 00:12:20,460 ~-~-> 00:12:32,250 | ||
199 | you do over the day. So equilibrium is right around here. So we could | ||
200 | consolidate between 3555 and 3550. If it doesn't drop, I just don't see it going | ||
201 | |||
202 | 43 | ||
203 | 00:12:32,250 ~-~-> 00:12:34,740 | ||
204 | higher and making higher highs of any significance. | ||
205 | |||
206 | 44 | ||
207 | 00:13:10,500 ~-~-> 00:13:19,080 | ||
208 | I'm not sure I can't recall if I mentioned that or not. But I mentioned that I | ||
209 | would I would be selling shorts. It was not nonfarm payroll Friday, at this | ||
210 | |||
211 | 45 | ||
212 | 00:13:19,080 ~-~-> 00:13:30,060 | ||
213 | level here, and I would simply use a 20 PIP stop. By because 20 pips above this | ||
214 | high, I'm already above that. So I don't think that 20 pips is going to be | ||
215 | |||
216 | 46 | ||
217 | 00:13:30,060 ~-~-> 00:13:40,110 | ||
218 | necessary. They ran it right to that level, right on the heels of the release of | ||
219 | the non farm payroll numbers. So I'd only be looking for a move lower. So if it | ||
220 | |||
221 | 47 | ||
222 | 00:13:40,110 ~-~-> 00:13:51,450 | ||
223 | was not a run on those by stops, yet, then I would use like a 30 PIP stop loss. | ||
224 | But because we've already essentially taken out device stops above that high. I | ||
225 | |||
226 | 48 | ||
227 | 00:13:51,450 ~-~-> 00:13:55,320 | ||
228 | can just go 20 pips above my entry, which would be hypothetically here. | ||
229 | |||
230 | 49 | ||
231 | 00:14:06,870 ~-~-> 00:14:14,400 | ||
232 | And some of you, you're probably wondering, well, if it goes down here and hits | ||
233 | that 3520 level, why didn't you take the trade? It would be in you know, in your | ||
234 | |||
235 | 50 | ||
236 | 00:14:14,400 ~-~-> 00:14:22,920 | ||
237 | account history, because it's not a day that I actually trade. And I'm | ||
238 | practicing what I preach. I try to tell people don't even practice in your demo | ||
239 | |||
240 | 51 | ||
241 | 00:14:22,920 ~-~-> 00:14:32,190 | ||
242 | one, and certainly don't want to trade with live funds, or non farm payrolls | ||
243 | Friday, because the casino ride, it's a carnival ride. It's it's absolutely. | ||
244 | |||
245 | 52 | ||
246 | 00:14:35,040 ~-~-> 00:14:43,050 | ||
247 | It's sometimes very volatile. And you might know what side of the marketplace it | ||
248 | wants to run for, but doesn't necessarily mean it's going to go the opposite | ||
249 | |||
250 | 53 | ||
251 | 00:14:43,050 ~-~-> 00:14:55,290 | ||
252 | direction right away either. So it can be really problematic for someone that | ||
253 | wants to know, a direction. The theme of this particular event is take the stops | ||
254 | |||
255 | 54 | ||
256 | 00:14:55,860 ~-~-> 00:15:04,350 | ||
257 | both sides of the marketplace if it's if it can be done. They'll take both | ||
258 | sides. But I view non farm payroll as a means of upsetting the ones that are | ||
259 | |||
260 | 55 | ||
261 | 00:15:04,350 ~-~-> 00:15:14,580 | ||
262 | going to stand to make the most money, post non farm payroll words, think of it | ||
263 | as a Judas swing. | ||
264 | |||
265 | 56 | ||
266 | 00:15:30,090 ~-~-> 00:15:57,390 | ||
267 | Now this portion of the video, I'm going to let it record, but it's going to be | ||
268 | sped up sounds, we'll make a note of that video speed increased now. So that way | ||
269 | |||
270 | 57 | ||
271 | 00:15:57,510 ~-~-> 00:16:12,240 | ||
272 | you guys know that what I'm doing is not any audio, I'm not talking right now I | ||
273 | can't fill in the gaps later on. Okay, so once I stopped talking, it'll just be | ||
274 | |||
275 | 58 | ||
276 | 00:16:12,240 ~-~-> 00:16:21,060 | ||
277 | recording the price action and then I'll come back when I take this off, then | ||
278 | it'll be real time and then we'll assess what's already happened. But I think | ||
279 | |||
280 | 59 | ||
281 | 00:16:21,090 ~-~-> 00:16:22,440 | ||
282 | ultimately, it's going to go down below | ||
283 | |||
284 | 60 | ||
285 | 00:16:23,160 ~-~-> 00:17:56,520 | ||
286 | here. Okay, so I would be taking my stop down to plus five | ||
287 | |||
288 | 61 | ||
289 | 00:18:02,880 ~-~-> 00:18:08,370 | ||
290 | in taking partial profits here. This is going to act as my stop. | ||
291 | |||
292 | 62 | ||
293 | 00:18:14,130 ~-~-> 00:18:30,060 | ||
294 | Now I'd be banking 75% 80% of the position and leaving the rest on the see if I | ||
295 | can get this stop around here to this was my hypothetical entry, but the high | ||
296 | |||
297 | 63 | ||
298 | 00:18:31,770 ~-~-> 00:18:44,760 | ||
299 | order block retreated back to that. And now we've seen some acceleration on the | ||
300 | downside, we do have a little bit of a water block in here, cable reach | ||
301 | |||
302 | 64 | ||
303 | 00:18:44,790 ~-~-> 00:18:56,130 | ||
304 | equilibrium, which is what I measured earlier. So that's what I'm saying I would | ||
305 | take that 75 80% off in this area here. That would be banked about 30 pips or so | ||
306 | |||
307 | 65 | ||
308 | 00:18:57,300 ~-~-> 00:19:19,560 | ||
309 | and a stop at plus five. So allow me to have a chance see if any further erosion | ||
310 | on price to get to that low. ideal scenario is for it to run to it before | ||
311 | |||
312 | 66 | ||
313 | 00:19:20,520 ~-~-> 00:19:30,240 | ||
314 | 10am 10:30am New York time. The longer it waits and lags, the less likely it | ||
315 | will do that and will probably just stay right in the middle of the range for | ||
316 | |||
317 | 67 | ||
318 | 00:19:30,240 ~-~-> 00:19:37,290 | ||
319 | the rest of the day. So I'll go back into speeding the video up now. | ||
320 | |||
321 | 68 | ||
322 | 00:21:40,019 ~-~-> 00:21:49,499 | ||
323 | Alright folks, as you can see it's 11 o'clock in the morning, New York time. So | ||
324 | I would be killing the trade here. Any open profits on my demo position would be | ||
325 | |||
326 | 69 | ||
327 | 00:21:49,919 ~-~-> 00:22:00,329 | ||
328 | taken and any open position will be closed so there won't be any more likelihood | ||
329 | for downside movement. And I'll just let you guys pan out the rest of the day | ||
330 | |||
331 | 70 | ||
332 | 00:22:00,329 ~-~-> 00:22:04,649 | ||
333 | and see what has transpired but I will be out based on London close time | ||
334 | parameters. |
