This one's kind of 4 +|3 |00:01:18,660 ~-~-> 00:01:29,430 |important because it really focuses on the risk aspect of trading and the element of reducing risk and controlling risk. While we essentially can't remove 5 +|4 |00:01:29,430 ~-~-> 00:01:45,240 |entirely every aspect of the risk, we can do our best to try to control it as best we can and or mitigate the effects of risk over a period of time. In this 6 +|5 |00:01:45,390 ~-~-> 00:01:57,720 |episode, we're going to obviously look at every view of the previous episodes assignment, projecting swing targets and we'll be looking at some examples and 7 +|6 |00:01:57,720 ~-~-> 00:02:14,010 |projections in illustrated form, then we're going to give you an a Euro USD bullish example a Euro USD bearish example controlling risk and effective stop 8 +|7 |00:02:14,010 ~-~-> 00:02:28,140 |loss placement. Okay, we're gonna be looking at the concept of limiting your trading to a defined risk percent of equity. What is the industry standard? What 9 +|8 |00:02:28,140 ~-~-> 00:02:44,550 |is ideal for most speculators and when you're hot, how high is high and we'll be looking at stoploss concepts and how many pips per risk per trade. I get this a 10 +|9 |00:02:44,550 ~-~-> 00:03:01,290 |lot in email and how to remove risk in open positions. Trailing your stop loss. And watching your six gave me looking at risk reduction versus bailout. And 11 +|10 |00:03:01,290 ~-~-> 00:03:06,870 |we'll have another homework assignment. We're going to be studying the average number of pips intraday. 12 +|11 |00:03:13,830 ~-~-> 00:03:26,010 |Okay, folks, real quick just give you a quick example for a bullish upside objective swing projection, this high here, down that is why you see how we have 13 +|12 |00:03:26,370 ~-~-> 00:03:38,250 |this price swing here. Now it's comprised of smaller price swings, this is a daily chart. But the overall swing is from this high down to this low and 200 14 +|13 |00:03:38,250 ~-~-> 00:03:48,360 |extension, which we didn't give the actual level on our fib in this series, but we did talk about the 200 being pretty much the maximum level that we like to 15 +|14 |00:03:48,360 ~-~-> 00:04:00,810 |see, which is a basically a measured move type of price phenomenon from this high to this low. That same range is the same thing from the high up to this fib 16 +|15 |00:04:00,810 ~-~-> 00:04:20,610 |level, you can see it pretty much nailed behind. If we break this down, we can go down into a four hour chart. Okay, and what we're going to look at here is 17 +|16 |00:04:20,610 ~-~-> 00:04:36,090 |that market moving lower here, we have this swing up, okay, so this is going to be a fulcrum point right here. Okay, and I'm going to give you fib projection 18 +|17 |00:04:38,940 ~-~-> 00:04:50,610 |right here and the 200 levels down here and now we did work through it a couple times. Getting a small little reaction here now but this is the overall price 19 +|18 |00:04:50,610 ~-~-> 00:05:03,210 |swing and it broke down here is the 127 easily reached once easy to easily reach and then went down below these market Structure lows are here. Okay, so you can 20 +|19 |00:05:03,210 ~-~-> 00:05:15,330 |see the complete fruition of the market maker sell model. Here we have the consolidation, the break out of it, the first little pause in here and rally up 21 +|20 |00:05:16,140 ~-~-> 00:05:26,670 |to failure swing, and then subsequent optimal trade entries, which we call this in advance right here on Twitter, and slammed it down. Guy, we were calling in 22 +|21 |00:05:26,670 ~-~-> 00:05:42,120 |advance this level here, and this level in here as well, you can find that on Twitter, again, it's all the time and date stamped. Now, you could take this 23 +|22 |00:05:42,120 ~-~-> 00:05:56,370 |even further and go down to a 15 minute time frame. Okay, and just simply looking at the fifth of them ever, you can see that we have this swing here, 24 +|23 |00:05:57,240 ~-~-> 00:06:11,250 |when it breaks this low here, okay, it's gonna be a fulcrum point right there. So anything moving down in price will most likely be a fib level for downside 25 +|24 |00:06:11,250 ~-~-> 00:06:11,880 |objectives. 26 +|25 |00:06:19,050 ~-~-> 00:06:37,050 |Okay, here's the 127 extension, from this low to high is 127 and 162. And then 200 extension here. And as a result prices up here. Okay. You can see, take 27 +|26 |00:06:37,050 ~-~-> 00:06:50,730 |these Li fibs off, starting to blend. While price is moving lower, you can see this rally up wants to take the low that we're anchoring the fed from out. Okay, 28 +|27 |00:06:50,850 ~-~-> 00:07:00,660 |this being the fulcrum point, you have your 127, your 162 and just fell short of the 200 extension here. And again, that's the reason why I don't really marry 29 +|28 |00:07:01,140 ~-~-> 00:07:12,030 |the idea that the 200 is always going to get hit, I really liked the 162. I like going 127 obviously, but we'll break it down further in the next video as to the 30 +|29 |00:07:12,030 ~-~-> 00:07:25,110 |other targets and other means of looking for additional targets and multiple targeting. And that'll be in Part Seven. And I know we've been dealing or at 31 +|30 |00:07:25,110 ~-~-> 00:07:36,240 |least attempting to move exclusively with the Euro USD pair for this teaching series. But just for the sake of argument, let's take a look at two other pairs 32 +|31 |00:07:36,240 ~-~-> 00:07:58,350 |we'll look at the Canadian dollar Okay, here's the Canadian dollar and let's go down to a hourly chart. Okay, and let's zoom out a little bit. right we have the 33 +|32 |00:07:58,350 ~-~-> 00:08:09,780 |market trading lower into a level of support, which I'm not going to outline here, but if you got to our timeframes, you can find the waterblock where this 34 +|33 |00:08:09,780 ~-~-> 00:08:23,790 |reacted to. But if you use this high here, market structure shifts right there. So this becomes a fulcrum point right there. trades out canes button comes right 35 +|34 |00:08:23,790 ~-~-> 00:08:35,250 |back down find support that same level of you pull from that point down to the lowest low. Okay, you have your 127 easily reached 162 easily reached and then 36 +|35 |00:08:35,250 ~-~-> 00:08:44,430 |200 very easily reached, okay. If you take your fib level, 37 +|36 |00:08:49,680 ~-~-> 00:08:59,610 |here's the 50% level or fulcrum or equilibrium. Okay, and you see the 100 level here, which is basically what you're getting with a 200% fail level. Okay, but 38 +|37 |00:08:59,610 ~-~-> 00:09:09,810 |I'm trying to teach you everything is based on like a 50% basis. Okay, there's like a 50% rule. If it moves down this many pips once it breaks that high issue, 39 +|38 |00:09:09,810 ~-~-> 00:09:20,010 |at least try to move that same number of pips up, okay. And when it does that, we have what is referred to as market symmetry and trading patterns and setups 40 +|39 |00:09:20,040 ~-~-> 00:09:31,890 |become very, very clean and very high probability when that occurs. Okay, since we taken up this low, I'm sorry, this high rather here. Okay, one could do this 41 +|40 |00:09:32,460 ~-~-> 00:09:49,410 |one, high down this low. You have 127 up here, and you want to go up here, which incidentally is an old high back here, zoom out. See that is the case and we're 42 +|41 |00:09:49,410 ~-~-> 00:10:00,630 |here. Again, it's assuming we do have traction and continue to move higher. The next pair we're gonna look at is the British Pound USD and Here you guys are 43 +|42 |00:10:00,630 ~-~-> 00:10:16,560 |nice order block and reaction. This is put on the charts in advance and you can see the reaction of price afterwards. But we're going to look at taking this fit 44 +|43 |00:10:16,560 ~-~-> 00:10:35,580 |off. And we'll take the rectangle off because zoom out a little bit. Okay, now we have the same scenario here, we have price moving down, nice price leg here, 45 +|44 |00:10:36,270 ~-~-> 00:10:46,050 |comes in and rejects this low. Okay, there's several of them in here that you can use. Obviously, we'll use this one here, this swing, when this high here, 46 +|45 |00:10:46,050 ~-~-> 00:10:59,160 |rancor and it's broke to the upside, you'll see the Fibonacci levels come into play. Here's the 127 easily reached 162 and then 200 extension here. Okay, going 47 +|46 |00:10:59,160 ~-~-> 00:11:14,280 |back to this higher market structure high here, using that same reference low. This is how you trade within a markets structure. So once this heist violated 48 +|47 |00:11:14,490 ~-~-> 00:11:28,140 |right here, we would be looking for upside objectives. 127 easily reached 162 easily reached 200 level easily reached. Okay. Let's go out to an hourly chart, 49 +|48 |00:11:28,380 ~-~-> 00:11:36,450 |same pair. Okay, let's scroll up. And now 50 +|49 |00:11:43,169 ~-~-> 00:12:00,299 |I can get this fib. Okay, we'll use this high here. And price just reached the 127 extension here. And the upside would be 162. And if you use this high here, 51 +|50 |00:12:00,779 ~-~-> 00:12:10,049 |all we're doing is moving on to the next excessive market high. So each one of these is a price when you have a high down that low. You have a high down there 52 +|51 |00:12:10,049 ~-~-> 00:12:28,289 |that same oil. Okay, these are all reference points for reactions. Okay, yeah. 1.7. Now here. And yeah, this one here is a lot of liquidity sitting right above 53 +|52 |00:12:28,289 ~-~-> 00:12:38,099 |that these are all hourly candles, unable to make a higher high in here. And we're about to blow that out right now while I'm recording. And then the 127 54 +|53 |00:12:38,129 ~-~-> 00:12:55,679 |resides up there. Now, with these levels in mind, okay. We're going to highlight that 162 to 127. 55 +|54 |00:13:03,390 ~-~-> 00:13:17,310 |Now, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna reference this larger price ceiling. Because remember, markets are fractal, okay? And the high down to lowest low. You see 56 +|55 |00:13:17,310 ~-~-> 00:13:27,420 |what resides over here. Here's the 62% sweet spot in sunlights chase model, there's a high probability to cable or reach up to these levels in here. 57 +|56 |00:13:32,640 ~-~-> 00:13:51,780 |Okay, and Nick is no debt right in there. Okay, and that would be a good area to have some scenarios. We have one more block in here. That can be a factor if we 58 +|57 |00:13:52,110 ~-~-> 00:14:06,780 |get through this area in here. Because this is a nice support level. Never been retested. So we may come out at 62% retracement on that 161 25 level 161 30. So 59 +|58 |00:14:06,780 ~-~-> 00:14:19,860 |we could tap into that. But I'm blending a couple things here but the Fibonacci price projections but you got to you got to do a few examples. Here you can see 60 +|59 |00:14:19,860 ~-~-> 00:14:33,120 |how useful they are and from the time we did our recording the last time let's just give a sell scenario. We have this price rally up. When this low is 61 +|60 |00:14:33,120 ~-~-> 00:14:45,450 |violated as it is here. This low becomes a fulcrum point in any price action. From that point. From that low appear once it's finally lower. Here's the 127 62 +|61 |00:14:45,450 ~-~-> 00:15:03,390 |easily met 162 easily met 200% extension easily met. Okay. And you could probably see KYC do that while I'm recording This kind of tend to relate to keep 63 +|62 |00:15:03,390 ~-~-> 00:15:15,720 |it on this sheet when it does, but anyway, you just watch it on your charts in retrospect, but you can see obviously, the fibs, when you have it in the right 64 +|63 |00:15:15,750 ~-~-> 00:15:26,730 |direction. They're very strong in terms of looking for high level, upside and downside objectives. We have this low made here from this high. I'll just give 65 +|64 |00:15:26,730 ~-~-> 00:15:39,270 |you a bullish scenario on the cable. I'm dragging and as you can see the levels and reactions to the highs here is high down to that low 127. Easily met 162 66 +|65 |00:15:39,270 ~-~-> 00:15:49,320 |easily met 200 extension bang swept through just a few times in here. Again, this is why we do not try to get all that we don't care that it does this, okay. 67 +|66 |00:15:49,950 ~-~-> 00:16:02,340 |If one is able to just get a piece a you got it in here being up to 160 to 210 pips, nothing wrong with that and who cares about the remaining portion? Okay? 68 +|67 |00:16:03,870 ~-~-> 00:16:09,000 |Let the Cubs eat. Alright, so I hope that's been insightful to you guys. 69 +|68 |00:16:16,080 ~-~-> 00:16:28,140 |Okay, guys, we're going to be looking at how stop loss playing placement is utilize in your trading, we're gonna be looking at how risk percentage is an 70 +|69 |00:16:28,170 ~-~-> 00:16:36,600 |important factor here trading. But before we get into all that, we're gonna be looking at how, obviously looking at a bullish scenario here, everything we 71 +|70 |00:16:36,600 ~-~-> 00:16:46,290 |talked about in this example, can be flipped 180 degrees, okay, and you'll see the opposite for selling scenarios. Okay, so every row you see here, just 72 +|71 |00:16:46,290 ~-~-> 00:16:57,210 |reverse it. And you'll get the understanding for selling short in the market and in how to control your stops. And in such, okay, we're going to assume that we 73 +|72 |00:16:57,210 ~-~-> 00:17:06,330 |have a key level and or institutional order block identified on our charts. And again, we're gonna be looking at a daily chart for this example. And the market 74 +|73 |00:17:06,330 ~-~-> 00:17:20,820 |has been showing in this crude example, in hypothetical terms, that price would be more or less trading down to our line here of anticipation. And as price 75 +|74 |00:17:20,820 ~-~-> 00:17:31,590 |starts to move aggressively down to that level, we will be hopefully, if we're not in front of our charts, we would have our platform for trading alert us to 76 +|75 |00:17:31,740 ~-~-> 00:17:42,150 |the fact that price is getting to our specific higher timeframe price level, as price trades to that level. Again, because we are flexible, we are not limiting 77 +|76 |00:17:42,150 ~-~-> 00:17:51,840 |our perspective is simply to one line, therefore it has to stop on that line turn on a dime. Okay, there is a gray area in trading that we I identified 78 +|77 |00:17:51,840 ~-~-> 00:18:02,340 |earlier in the series. And we've come to hopefully by now, terms with the fact that we can't get perfection in the marketplace in terms of turning points, 79 +|78 |00:18:02,370 ~-~-> 00:18:12,660 |okay, we have rough ideas, where price should turn, but even the highest level key levels, and support levels and institutional order blocks have a little bit 80 +|79 |00:18:12,660 ~-~-> 00:18:23,340 |of gray areas where it could deviate a little bit. But more specifically, we're gonna be highlighting, obviously, all of our trades around key levels around 81 +|80 |00:18:23,340 ~-~-> 00:18:33,690 |numbers, institutional levels, and a confluence of support and resistance factors with time of day. Okay, so you haven't time and price theory combined. 82 +|81 |00:18:34,740 ~-~-> 00:18:45,900 |So as price goes down into this level, that's when we are on the prowl for a buy scenario, okay, we're trying to buy during that event, we don't want to be 83 +|82 |00:18:45,900 ~-~-> 00:18:53,790 |buying after the move has already turned around, and everybody sees that it's a swing low, it's moved for three or four days, we want to be buying in a 84 +|83 |00:18:53,790 ~-~-> 00:19:02,100 |suppressed market environment, we want to be looking at bargain prices, okay? And we don't want to be buying at retail prices, we want to be buying wholesale. 85 +|84 |00:19:02,280 ~-~-> 00:19:14,160 |Okay, so assuming that we use information that we talked about earlier in this series, in terms of framing a reactionary level to a trade, we're going to 86 +|85 |00:19:14,160 ~-~-> 00:19:22,650 |assume that we anticipated at that key level, the market had turned Okay, and maybe retested and gave us an optimal trade entry on a lower timeframe. Now, 87 +|86 |00:19:22,650 ~-~-> 00:19:32,970 |we're going to assume for this example, that we were fortunate enough to catch a long position at that key level, okay. And it's not important that we have a 88 +|87 |00:19:33,480 ~-~-> 00:19:44,220 |specific price level in this example. Because really, what we're going to be looking at is how traders are always in my experience, okay, even when I was an 89 +|88 |00:19:44,220 ~-~-> 00:19:53,610 |early developing trader, I felt the need to want to exit the trade immediately. As soon as I saw some gains, I had, you know, this overwhelming feeling that I 90 +|89 |00:19:53,610 ~-~-> 00:20:02,640 |had to hurry up and get out and close the trade. If I was of several $100 I would think wow, this is good. You know, I've taken losses in a series of 91 +|90 |00:20:02,640 ~-~-> 00:20:14,850 |losses, this feels good. And I just would rather not leave the market with another loss after seeing these gains when you have a sound entry, many times, 92 +|91 |00:20:14,850 ~-~-> 00:20:26,640 |those are the scariest trades to hold on to, okay? Because the good trades don't spend their time very long at wholesale prices, they immediately start to move 93 +|92 |00:20:26,640 ~-~-> 00:20:37,290 |to retail level pricing, okay. In other words, if you're able to catch a very low price point, and you're long in the marketplace, you anticipate as a 94 +|93 |00:20:37,290 ~-~-> 00:20:47,280 |professional trader prices moving rather aggressively away from that level. Okay. And that's what we talked about earlier in our series that the more 95 +|94 |00:20:47,970 ~-~-> 00:20:58,260 |conviction that we see behind price moving away from from a specific level that we hopefully pre determined in advance, that is what we would anticipate seeing 96 +|95 |00:20:58,290 ~-~-> 00:21:07,440 |in our trades, once we've entered it, we don't want to see the market dragging its heels and, and lethargically moving around, because we're gonna be 97 +|96 |00:21:07,440 ~-~-> 00:21:09,900 |mentioning time stops in this 98 +|97 |00:21:10,260 ~-~-> 00:21:17,550 |in this episode, too. I'm not going to beat it to death. But I do use a time stop, and I'll explain that as we get to that point. But as the market starts to 99 +|98 |00:21:17,550 ~-~-> 00:21:27,420 |move in our favor, okay, we will be reaching for our predetermined price points, like we discussed in part five of the series, where we looked at the fib to give 100 +|99 |00:21:27,420 ~-~-> 00:21:37,860 |the 127 162 extensions as possible upside objectives. Now, again, those with the confines of supporting factors with support resistance, maybe even pivot points, 101 +|100 |00:21:38,820 ~-~-> 00:21:48,120 |something like an old high or low to to frame those upper level objectives, not simply because the fib calls that level, we want to be looking for other things 102 +|101 |00:21:48,120 ~-~-> 00:21:58,590 |as well, again, factoring the time and day of week phenomenon as well. Now, again, getting back to this crude example, as we have here, when the market is 103 +|102 |00:21:58,590 ~-~-> 00:22:12,300 |now moving away from your entry point. Okay, one of the closest things to insanity is when you have this environment, unfolding for you, profitably, okay. 104 +|103 |00:22:13,350 ~-~-> 00:22:28,620 |It's amazing how traders and I know this firsthand. Okay, when I first began trading, I would hold a losing trade for ever and for forever. And forever. I'm 105 +|104 |00:22:28,620 ~-~-> 00:22:37,950 |sure you probably felt that same thing to your trading, because you really want to see a turnaround. Yeah, hope springs eternal. Not in forex, not in 106 +|105 |00:22:37,950 ~-~-> 00:22:45,960 |speculation, and certainly not in trading. Okay. So the market doesn't have to go back to your price point. Okay, if you look at the Dow, just look at anything 107 +|106 |00:22:45,960 ~-~-> 00:22:56,040 |from seven months ago. It's been a while since In fact, there's levels. Okay. So if you've been waiting for the market to get back to those levels, man, you're 108 +|107 |00:22:56,040 ~-~-> 00:23:07,200 |gonna grind these pieces. Okay. So don't do that have a predetermined area where you would expect to cut your losses short. Okay. What is the industry standard 109 +|108 |00:23:07,200 ~-~-> 00:23:21,120 |for risk? Okay, you commonly hear and I hear myself say it all the time, these videos, because I want to more or less segue into the majority of everyone's 110 +|109 |00:23:21,120 ~-~-> 00:23:30,420 |expectations and analysis. But really what I try to do is say, Okay, look, everybody says 2% of your equity portrayed. Okay. And if you're really, really 111 +|110 |00:23:30,420 ~-~-> 00:23:41,970 |solid trader, there's nothing wrong with that. Okay. Now, I suggest that traders should work within the realm of 1% of their equity portrayed. The reason for 112 +|111 |00:23:41,970 ~-~-> 00:23:54,420 |that is assuming that you had a $10,000 trading account, and you were risking 1%, how much money would be at risk per trade $100 against the standard 2%, 113 +|112 |00:23:54,450 ~-~-> 00:24:05,970 |which would be 200 hours per trade total risk. And the way you determine your PIP size is you take that $200, if it's 2%, or 1%, at $100, total risk of 114 +|113 |00:24:06,360 ~-~-> 00:24:21,030 |assuming that you have a $10,000 trading account. If it's a $1,000 trading account, then it would be a $10 for 1% or $20, for 2%, total equity risk per 115 +|114 |00:24:21,030 ~-~-> 00:24:31,080 |trade, whatever that dollar amount is percentage wise, whether it be 1% or 2%. Ideally, 1% or less. I came in, I knew that probably sounds like weed and I 116 +|115 |00:24:31,080 ~-~-> 00:24:36,690 |can't make a lot of money with that. That's right, because if you're just starting out, you need to forget about making a whole lot of money because you 117 +|116 |00:24:36,690 ~-~-> 00:24:46,320 |got a whole lot of learning to do. So assuming that you did have a $10,000 account. Okay, and you've worked with smaller accounts, you've proven to 118 +|117 |00:24:46,320 ~-~-> 00:24:56,280 |yourself that you could be disciplined. You have a track record of being consistent. You control your risk, you limit your losses, you let your profits 119 +|118 |00:24:56,280 ~-~-> 00:25:11,160 |run and your target started getting hit on more consistent basis, you have a risk of 100 hours per trade, which is 1% of $10,000. You take that $100 and you 120 +|119 |00:25:11,160 ~-~-> 00:25:24,150 |divide that by the total pips. Okay needed to justify your trade. Okay, and, but the assumption that this is a daily chart here, it could be very easily in the 121 +|120 |00:25:24,150 ~-~-> 00:25:28,890 |realm of 100 pips or more, okay, which would put you at very, very low 122 +|121 |00:25:30,240 ~-~-> 00:25:38,040 |leverage for the trading, which really in a way isn't that bad. But I know a lot of you folks watching this really want to have a little bit more bang for your 123 +|122 |00:25:38,040 ~-~-> 00:25:49,590 |buck. So using the concepts we used in the earlier videos, if you move down to a lower timeframe, you can reduce your you do reduce your risk to less than 50 124 +|123 |00:25:49,590 ~-~-> 00:26:00,450 |pips anywhere between 3040 is about ideal, I, in my opinion, because it allows the developing trader to have a little bit of a fudge factor, where they're not 125 +|124 |00:26:00,450 ~-~-> 00:26:11,400 |expected to be so precise with their stops, okay, and gives you a little bit of flexibility, because I know, inherently that traders will rush to entry, or they 126 +|125 |00:26:11,400 ~-~-> 00:26:18,540 |will look for confirmation in their eyes, quote, unquote, confirmation by letting the trade start to move a little bit in their favor and then chase it 127 +|126 |00:26:18,540 ~-~-> 00:26:32,670 |but very close to their entry price, but still within the risk parameters as permitted by their method or this concept. So if you had that in mind, okay, you 128 +|127 |00:26:32,670 ~-~-> 00:26:51,600 |could have basically $3.30, roughly, per Pip, if you trading a $10,000 account, with 1% risk using a 30. Pip stop, okay? The reason why the industry standard is 129 +|128 |00:26:51,600 ~-~-> 00:27:02,130 |2%, sometimes you hear in certain circles, you could risk more than 2%. Okay, because that's what the real traders and the real professionals are doing, I can 130 +|129 |00:27:02,130 ~-~-> 00:27:11,100 |tell you, the real professional traders aren't doing that, okay, they're not risking a whole lot of their money. For disclosure sake, I do risk as much as 131 +|130 |00:27:11,100 ~-~-> 00:27:21,240 |much as three and a half percent, that means I'm trading with the higher timeframe, weekly, daily, and four hour all in the same direction, everything's 132 +|131 |00:27:21,240 ~-~-> 00:27:36,270 |lined up with those three timeframes. And I have a weekly bias that's in the same direction. And that will allow me based on my abilities and experience 133 +|132 |00:27:36,270 ~-~-> 00:27:47,310 |trading, I will risk up to, and it's not a whole lot that it happens, but up to three and a half percent of my equity for one trade. Typically, it'll be 134 +|133 |00:27:47,310 ~-~-> 00:27:57,660 |anywhere between one and one and a half percent. Because the timeframes aren't always lined up like that, you'll have a counter trend move going against one of 135 +|134 |00:27:57,660 ~-~-> 00:28:09,600 |the primary higher time frame time zone, not time zones per timeframe, you know, weekly, daily, and four hour. So if I'm trading against that on a lower 136 +|135 |00:28:09,600 ~-~-> 00:28:24,000 |timeframe, obviously, one, one and a half percent is a maximum. For sure. If I'm trading with a daily and for our in the same direction, I can be as much as 2%. 137 +|136 |00:28:24,690 ~-~-> 00:28:38,130 |risk. Now, how high is high? Okay, I think if anybody's risking more than, you know, obviously 3% unless you're really really proficient, you really know what 138 +|137 |00:28:38,130 ~-~-> 00:28:47,880 |you're doing. And you know how to turn your equity losing string around. Because it's not just one trade that you lose on guys, sometimes you get a couple of 139 +|138 |00:28:47,880 ~-~-> 00:28:58,320 |them in a row. And even the best traders out there will suffer that and have suffered that regardless of what they tell you. So assuming that's the case for 140 +|139 |00:28:58,320 ~-~-> 00:29:07,590 |you, and you're human like everyone else, you have to have an idea of how to control that. And the best way to do it is reducing your overall exposure as you 141 +|140 |00:29:07,590 ~-~-> 00:29:17,310 |take losses. Okay. And I'll give you an example. Let's assume for a minute you settled in on the idea of taking 2% portrayed. If you go loss, you've lost 2% of 142 +|141 |00:29:17,310 ~-~-> 00:29:25,590 |equity. Okay, now, if you dress 2% of the next trade again, thinking that well if I make the same amount of money I lost on my previous trade, I'll get back to 143 +|142 |00:29:25,590 ~-~-> 00:29:40,680 |even that's where the cycle begins. Okay. You want to get back to that previous equity level that milestone that marker, okay, that comfort zone, internally as 144 +|143 |00:29:40,680 ~-~-> 00:29:51,870 |a trader, and that's not a good game to play. Okay. And what happens is, is you're actually inviting more emotional response and triggers into your trading 145 +|144 |00:29:51,930 ~-~-> 00:30:04,410 |than you should have. Okay? And, by systematically methodically reducing your risk in half Okay, for instance, if you took a loss at 2%, you only risk 1% of 146 +|145 |00:30:04,410 ~-~-> 00:30:13,770 |next trade, it may take you two or three trades to get back to that previous mile marker. But guess what it's doing is removing the rush factor to get back 147 +|146 |00:30:13,770 ~-~-> 00:30:24,060 |to that point. And it's honing your patience with the added benefit of lowering your overall exposure exposure to the marketplace. Now think about you're in a 148 +|147 |00:30:24,360 ~-~-> 00:30:25,230 |losing 149 +|148 |00:30:27,690 ~-~-> 00:30:36,960 |environment where you've had suffered a loss for a developing trader, that is very, very hard to swallow, regardless if it's a demo account or not, because 150 +|149 |00:30:37,290 ~-~-> 00:30:45,450 |you are still working within the realm of psychological and emotional barriers that you just simply don't understand until you've traded through it, or you've 151 +|150 |00:30:45,450 ~-~-> 00:30:54,090 |experienced it and said, This isn't for me, and you leave the market altogether. And there's nothing wrong with that, because trading is not for everyone. And it 152 +|151 |00:30:54,090 ~-~-> 00:31:04,950 |would be irresponsible of me as a mentor, to not at least suggest that to some of you. Because if you can't wrap your mind around doing this, and assuming some 153 +|152 |00:31:04,950 ~-~-> 00:31:18,060 |level of risk, this is absolutely not your cup of tea, okay. And that's one thing you can guarantee coming from me as the gospel. Not everyone and on the 154 +|153 |00:31:18,060 ~-~-> 00:31:29,970 |planet is meant to do this. And it takes a certain level of commitment and tenacity to stick within a realm of rules. And humans are typically very good 155 +|154 |00:31:29,970 ~-~-> 00:31:37,230 |rule breakers, we don't like to, you know, follow the rules. And just think about if you walk down the street in a well groomed neighborhood, and you see a 156 +|155 |00:31:37,230 ~-~-> 00:31:45,660 |sign says don't step on the grass, what's the first thing you want to do? Step on the grass. Just look at a kid, that's what they're gonna do. You know, I made 157 +|156 |00:31:46,410 ~-~-> 00:31:55,140 |so many jokes as my children were growing up, that they were like heat seeking missiles, okay, we we get new carpet in the home, and my wife or a guest would 158 +|157 |00:31:55,140 ~-~-> 00:32:03,870 |come over and need invariably have their, their drink with them. And in our new dining area, we're not losing room or family room, and our children would come 159 +|158 |00:32:03,870 ~-~-> 00:32:14,400 |in and being kids, they would roughhouse, you know, just for a second. And they won't fall away from the tables or fall away from the person, the only person in 160 +|159 |00:32:14,400 ~-~-> 00:32:22,770 |the room with the drink, they fall and land, either on the drink, or indeed a person drops and goes all over the the white carpet or at the time, you know, we 161 +|160 |00:32:22,770 ~-~-> 00:32:33,420 |have a very light colored tan carpet and the drink, you cause you havoc on it, we got to get it cleaned. So those things are going to happen. So you had to 162 +|161 |00:32:33,420 ~-~-> 00:32:44,250 |prepare for it. So you're going to have that in your trading with wanting to do something you shouldn't do. And you're going to have that Murphy's Law scenario 163 +|162 |00:32:44,250 ~-~-> 00:32:52,770 |as well, what can go wrong, probably will go wrong, okay, so you have to have that, that shield up in your defense. And that's only going to come in the form 164 +|163 |00:32:52,800 ~-~-> 00:33:01,770 |of you controlling your equity. Okay, and if you take a loss, don't be afraid to cut your risk on the next trade. And if you had to do that, and continuously 165 +|164 |00:33:01,770 ~-~-> 00:33:12,660 |down to a half percent total risk of your equity, that's fine. There's nothing wrong with that. Okay? Remove from your mind, right now that you want to make 166 +|165 |00:33:12,660 ~-~-> 00:33:21,840 |millions of dollars right now. Okay, because that is the wrong perspective going in. There's nothing wrong with having goals or doing that. But initially, you 167 +|166 |00:33:21,840 ~-~-> 00:33:30,330 |have to take the bite first, okay, and chew the elephant, one bite at a time, you just can't go in and try to swallow it all at once because you'll choke. So 168 +|167 |00:33:31,380 ~-~-> 00:33:43,920 |with that in mind, okay, once these moves start to move in your favor, okay, you obviously want to be able to remove the risk, okay. And at least during the 169 +|168 |00:33:43,920 ~-~-> 00:33:53,490 |move, new trading in your favor, you want to be removing a little bit of the risk, methodically until you get to the point where you have zero risk or, quote 170 +|169 |00:33:53,490 ~-~-> 00:34:00,900 |unquote, no risk exposure, okay, obviously, anything that happened in marketplace, you know, something can happen new markets could gap because of, 171 +|170 |00:34:01,080 ~-~-> 00:34:09,720 |you know, terrorist event or something unexpected in the in the Fed or whatever. And there'll be a massive movement and your your stop loss experiences, and 172 +|171 |00:34:09,720 ~-~-> 00:34:18,000 |slippage. These are all things we understood when we signed up for this game. So bottom line is, is it can happen, prepare yourself for it, because you're going 173 +|172 |00:34:18,000 ~-~-> 00:34:25,080 |to take losses, and if you trade of any length of time, you're gonna have a lot of losses, okay? And there's certainly nothing wrong with it. It's a cost of 174 +|173 |00:34:25,080 ~-~-> 00:34:35,280 |doing business. Every successful business out there takes a loss of some sort, but you don't see those businesses collectively going out of business. Okay, 175 +|174 |00:34:35,280 ~-~-> 00:34:44,700 |they, they, they trim, they put things up for sale, just to get rid of inventories ain't moving real fast, and they bring in you the better movers, 176 +|175 |00:34:44,730 ~-~-> 00:34:53,220 |okay. And that's what you do for your trading. If your trades aren't really panning out, yeah. Cut the losses short, okay, or the meals that aren't really 177 +|176 |00:34:53,220 ~-~-> 00:35:03,660 |moving. You just get rid of them. And then you keep your powder dry waiting for the next setup. If you do that Okay, if you do that, I think you'll see a more 178 +|177 |00:35:03,660 ~-~-> 00:35:14,730 |streamlined increase in your equity. And I think you'll remove a lot of that whipsaw, you possibly have been seen in your equity curve on your beginning 179 +|178 |00:35:14,730 ~-~-> 00:35:15,870 |balance and where you're at now. 180 +|179 |00:35:18,210 ~-~-> 00:35:29,250 |time stops, okay, I have a premise that if the move doesn't start, if I'm, if I'm trading off of a daily timeframe, and it really doesn't start to move in my 181 +|180 |00:35:29,250 ~-~-> 00:35:40,710 |favor after three days, okay, I'm aggressively either removing the risk if possible, or I'm taking half the position off, okay, and I'm watching my six. 182 +|181 |00:35:41,340 ~-~-> 00:35:49,230 |The military has an expression that, you know, wherever you're pointing your rifle, okay, or a firearm in front of you, that's 12 o'clock, your six is behind 183 +|182 |00:35:49,230 ~-~-> 00:35:59,670 |you, okay? Or watch your ass. Okay, what you're looking at in the marketplace, when you see a trade, it isn't moving in your favor, right away. And I think 184 +|183 |00:35:59,670 ~-~-> 00:36:07,740 |three days is enough time. If it's still consolidating, or still him hauling around not really moving, I'm looking to either take half the position off and 185 +|184 |00:36:07,740 ~-~-> 00:36:18,600 |move my main position to either breakeven or aggressively take it to half the initial risk, or even a quarter of the initial risk. Okay, so I may like the 186 +|185 |00:36:18,600 ~-~-> 00:36:27,360 |overall setup that still might be there, but it could be iffy, you just watch your six, take your position and cut it in half, remove aggressively half the 187 +|186 |00:36:27,360 ~-~-> 00:36:38,970 |initial risk, if possible, or at least reduce it down to a quarter of the initial risk on the remaining half positions you leave on. Or simply bail out. 188 +|187 |00:36:39,360 ~-~-> 00:36:48,630 |Just collapse the trade. Okay, and if you're underwater just by a few pips, so what, you know, if you're risking 30, and you're down 19. And you just see that 189 +|188 |00:36:48,630 ~-~-> 00:36:59,700 |it's really not moving. And you go on until Friday, perhaps as the worst scenario for me, I will collapse it and just take whatever that is, as a modest 190 +|189 |00:36:59,700 ~-~-> 00:37:09,810 |loss. You know, you didn't get stopped out, No, you didn't get in your targets, but you're getting rent getting rid of the dog, or you getting rid of the slow 191 +|190 |00:37:09,810 ~-~-> 00:37:18,510 |moving inventory and you want to get another hopefully more opportune set up with your equity behind it. So that way, you can recoup that. And if you do 192 +|191 |00:37:18,510 ~-~-> 00:37:30,930 |that, you systematically refine it, all those little tiny scratches immediately get smoothed out quickly with your move in my equity into a better more sound 193 +|192 |00:37:30,960 ~-~-> 00:37:40,620 |setup. So timestamps is something that you to me, I think it's beneficial. It's a little bit of an art to it. But I break it down like this, if it's going to be 194 +|193 |00:37:40,740 ~-~-> 00:37:51,660 |a trade, it's based off with daily setup, I gave it about three days. And if I'm trading off of a four hour, I'm really giving in about one day. And one hour 195 +|194 |00:37:51,660 ~-~-> 00:38:01,260 |chart is I'm giving it two sessions tops, okay. Ideally, either the London or New York session, if it hasn't moved by, then you know, it's on an hourly basis. 196 +|195 |00:38:01,560 ~-~-> 00:38:11,850 |I'm really looking to reduce the risk and or collapse it. And anything less than that, I really don't have a timestamp for on outside of the intraday timeframes 197 +|196 |00:38:11,850 ~-~-> 00:38:22,620 |of London, to London, close London open to London close rather. So assuming, obviously, that we have our scenario that unfolded here, hypothetically, and we 198 +|197 |00:38:22,680 ~-~-> 00:38:34,440 |suggesting a we bought long in this market, whatever that market may be, we'll say this is the euro. And the market starts to move in our favor. So we have 199 +|198 |00:38:34,440 ~-~-> 00:38:48,150 |some some paper profits right now. Our stops are still at an initial 30% I'm sorry, 30 pips. And we have not yet made our first profit objective. So what do 200 +|199 |00:38:48,150 ~-~-> 00:38:58,170 |we do? Well, you want to be systematically reducing your risk. If you started with a 30 PIP stop, move it down to only 20 pips. And as the market moves and 201 +|200 |00:38:58,170 ~-~-> 00:39:08,880 |takes out your first target, take your stop loss and move it to only 10% risk. Okay? And as it moves and starts approaching your second target, that's when you 202 +|201 |00:39:08,880 ~-~-> 00:39:20,640 |go to breakeven, okay? You do not rush your stop trailing. Okay, this is one of the biggest mistakes traders make. Because of the natural volatility in the 203 +|202 |00:39:20,640 ~-~-> 00:39:32,400 |Forex market. It's so easy for just common volatility. Nothing behind it new market makers sneaking to get you. It's normal volatility. Okay, 204 +|203 |00:39:32,430 ~-~-> 00:39:41,910 |illiquid volatility. Okay, we're marked on down. Phil Phil's market inefficiencies and they take the market down to a specific level to gather up 205 +|204 |00:39:41,910 ~-~-> 00:39:50,910 |any orders and and go the other way. Okay, we're not talking about stop ragers looking for common little intraday. retracements. Okay. If you rapidly move your 206 +|205 |00:39:50,910 ~-~-> 00:40:02,520 |stop loss up behind market pricing, you're asking to get taken avatrade before it comes to fruition. Okay. Once you have this setup, what you're doing is 207 +|206 |00:40:02,520 ~-~-> 00:40:13,230 |you're anticipating the market to start to move in your favor. But this is a gray area because you don't know for sure it's going to do that. Okay? Yes, the 208 +|207 |00:40:13,230 ~-~-> 00:40:21,810 |market could potentially can continue to move in your favor. Or it could turn around and stop you out. Or could stay in this small little consolidation area 209 +|208 |00:40:22,230 ~-~-> 00:40:31,170 |for days and make no money for you but a small profit, but you'll hold on to it thinking it's going to go to the moon, I know you because everybody's the same 210 +|209 |00:40:31,170 ~-~-> 00:40:39,900 |way when they're developing. We all think the markets are gonna go like a rocket either up or crash down. Okay, to the ground, like a, you know, a meteor just 211 +|210 |00:40:39,900 ~-~-> 00:40:48,720 |plummeting to the earth. It's, they don't move in straight lines, guys. Okay, so while we would anticipate, okay, higher prices, and we expect that hopefully, 212 +|211 |00:40:48,840 ~-~-> 00:40:57,840 |okay, hopefully, that we see that, again, keeping in mind, that's a gray area, we're expecting those price levels to be reached on the upper side, but they're 213 +|212 |00:40:57,840 ~-~-> 00:41:11,940 |not promised. Okay. So inside of that, that, that gray area of anticipation, we have an expected outcome in price action, but we can effectively manage our 214 +|213 |00:41:11,940 ~-~-> 00:41:24,120 |stops within that move. Okay, and there's a way that I do it. But once you have your setup, the way I manage my stop losses, is I use a 15 minute timeframe. 215 +|214 |00:41:24,510 ~-~-> 00:41:35,490 |Okay. And the 15 minute because this setup in this whole series have been really developed on finding one solid weekly set up where you can take a really good 216 +|215 |00:41:35,490 ~-~-> 00:41:46,680 |setup for a weekly opportunity to make a consistent realm of pips anywhere between 30 to 60. pips i think is an ideal scenario for someone to try to carve 217 +|216 |00:41:46,680 ~-~-> 00:41:56,310 |out a consistent living. And if you are consistently doing that, there's certainly no reason why you can't take a very handsome living out of this, this 218 +|217 |00:41:56,310 ~-~-> 00:42:09,090 |marketplace and not trade a whole lot of pairs either. So why don't use the 15 minute time frame? Well, there is very clear, discernible dealing ranges and 219 +|218 |00:42:09,090 ~-~-> 00:42:20,610 |support resistance levels, okay, that are clearly discernible on that timeframe, and allows you to look at a whole weekly perspective, perspective, from Sunday 220 +|219 |00:42:20,610 ~-~-> 00:42:31,650 |to Friday's close. Perfect example, to pick any pair of your chosen, load up a 15 minute chart, condense your chart, so it shows Sunday to Friday's close. And 221 +|220 |00:42:31,650 ~-~-> 00:42:43,140 |you'll see how that timeframe gives you all of this session highs and lows and even gives you a very clear snapshot of all of the volatility for those 222 +|221 |00:42:43,140 ~-~-> 00:42:51,480 |particular sessions. London, New York, Asia and you can actually see where the range highs and lows are very clearly and then you can see the small little 223 +|222 |00:42:51,480 ~-~-> 00:43:03,180 |quiet points in the marketplace in between those sessions. Also, the notion of find the weekly high by Tuesday are no later than Wednesday is London open 224 +|223 |00:43:03,930 ~-~-> 00:43:13,110 |having that in mind Okay, expecting a specific outcome based on hard timeframe directional premise, but that assumption here being bullish, we'll be looking 225 +|224 |00:43:13,110 ~-~-> 00:43:23,130 |for the monday tuesday or wednesday London open session low making it for the weekly low by that time okay don't respond Wednesdays London open at the very 226 +|225 |00:43:23,130 ~-~-> 00:43:33,600 |least typically get about 70% likelihood that the lows usually formed by Tuesday's long and open just reverse that obviously for bearish conditions. But 227 +|226 |00:43:34,110 ~-~-> 00:43:46,950 |you know, the way I manage my stops once they've moved to breakeven, I use a 15 minute timeframe. And I find the most recent swing low on a 15 minute basis. I 228 +|227 |00:43:46,950 ~-~-> 00:43:57,900 |knew that one and then I go back to the previous swing low prior to that one that swing lows where I take my stop and I just place it just on in bullish 229 +|228 |00:43:57,900 ~-~-> 00:44:09,690 |environments just beneath it by 10 to 15 pips, okay 10 to 15 pips below the second most recent swing low on a 15 minute timeframe. And I trail the market 230 +|229 |00:44:09,690 ~-~-> 00:44:18,900 |like that I'm giving my market, a little bit of opportunity, okay to retrace but not Kamali back down. If it comes back down that far. I'm accepting the fact 231 +|230 |00:44:18,900 ~-~-> 00:44:26,460 |that you know, the move is probably done, I missed an ideal opportunity to get out. Or the markets reverse and my analysis was wrong and there's certainly 232 +|231 |00:44:26,460 ~-~-> 00:44:31,320 |nothing wrong with admitting that but by using the previous to 233 +|232 |00:44:32,340 ~-~-> 00:44:43,920 |swing lows, okay, what it's doing is it's allowing successive 79% retracement levels, okay. And when we look at an examples, you'll see what I mean by that, 234 +|233 |00:44:43,920 ~-~-> 00:44:55,230 |but it just it builds in a allowance for market structure to continue to make higher highs and higher lows. Okay. Plus, it keeps it away from just pure static 235 +|234 |00:44:55,230 ~-~-> 00:45:06,900 |volatility coming down and tagging you okay? That's the reason why you want to be taking some profits. Okay initially, okay, it may be 20 pips, maybe 30 pips, 236 +|235 |00:45:06,900 ~-~-> 00:45:13,680 |you may be getting one for one and let the remaining portion of your trade unwind, okay, and then reach for hard objectives. There's nothing wrong with 237 +|236 |00:45:13,680 ~-~-> 00:45:21,360 |that. But there's going to be a camp out there that listens to this and says, Well, you know, you're risking 30 pips. But then when you cut the position in 238 +|237 |00:45:21,360 ~-~-> 00:45:32,880 |half at 20 or 30 pips, you're really not making any headway with doing it. Well, I beg to differ. Okay? If you have consistency on your side, you are shielding 239 +|238 |00:45:32,880 ~-~-> 00:45:39,570 |yourself from the inevitable market turn around while you're in the trade where it does have a small profit, okay? And there's nothing guaranteed it's going to 240 +|239 |00:45:39,600 ~-~-> 00:45:51,330 |get to your first target objective, or second, or move in your favor at all. Okay, that camp that believes that taking some partial profits, has a fixation 241 +|240 |00:45:51,330 ~-~-> 00:45:59,220 |that thinking that they're always going to be right. So therefore, their trade should hold on to the maximum lots that were assumed at the beginning of trade, 242 +|241 |00:45:59,520 ~-~-> 00:46:09,000 |for the full duration of the trade, with the expectation of making maximum profit. My goal was a professional trader, and it should be yours as well. Your 243 +|242 |00:46:09,000 ~-~-> 00:46:18,930 |goal is to have the maximum protection from losing your money, because the likelihood of you doing that is almost guaranteed, versus the likelihood of you 244 +|243 |00:46:18,930 ~-~-> 00:46:27,300 |making money consistently. Okay, think about that for a moment. You didn't listen to it closely. Rewind this video for a sec, couple minutes, and then go 245 +|244 |00:46:27,300 ~-~-> 00:46:39,000 |back and listen that portion part, again, because it is worth its weight in gold. It's so easy for us to think that we're going to make more money. If we 246 +|245 |00:46:39,000 ~-~-> 00:46:49,230 |hold more reach for higher price objectives or lower price objectives. If we're short. There's no guarantee it's getting there. No guarantee. And there's been 247 +|246 |00:46:49,230 ~-~-> 00:46:57,630 |so many times where I've been so close to the actual highs and lows of the particular market. I was trading, okay, I'm talking weekly highs, where the 248 +|247 |00:46:57,630 ~-~-> 00:47:07,200 |market turned around and then went months the other direction. Okay. I have been so close where I've just been partial, I mean a piece of a pip not even a full 249 +|248 |00:47:07,200 ~-~-> 00:47:18,780 |Pip. And I didn't get my exit. Okay. And to me, I hate that feeling. A lot of folks would say me, that's, that's cool. That's crazy accuracy. Yeah, but I 250 +|249 |00:47:18,780 ~-~-> 00:47:27,180 |didn't get out of that point. So how accurate is it? It just because I said it was going to go there I had an order to get out and the only trades a half a pip 251 +|250 |00:47:27,180 ~-~-> 00:47:36,270 |to that point, it doesn't activate new the order. That doesn't make me smart. It doesn't make me an excellent trader, it makes me a person that missed that move. 252 +|251 |00:47:36,630 ~-~-> 00:47:46,380 |Okay, I didn't get my trade off, like I wanted to. And initially as a commodity trader, I, you know, I would make that mistake. And it would, it would get close 253 +|252 |00:47:46,380 ~-~-> 00:47:53,910 |to my orders. And I'm saying this when I started getting consistent that when I first started because I wasn't that accurate. I didn't know anything else is 254 +|253 |00:47:53,910 ~-~-> 00:48:06,690 |fine. You flying by the seat of my pants. The the notion of holding on to moves to get the last piece of the pie is, you know, it's a losers mentality. You 255 +|254 |00:48:06,690 ~-~-> 00:48:20,820 |don't want to do that. You just need a big portion of the move. And I just think like a wine, you know, to me, I think he's, he's it in on the on the terrain of, 256 +|255 |00:48:20,970 ~-~-> 00:48:33,510 |you know, the outback, or, you know, the outback, I guess the Africa is playing, I guess as well thinking about you, when they when they eat, okay? They eat a 257 +|256 |00:48:33,510 ~-~-> 00:48:45,780 |large portion of whatever was taken down by Linus, okay. But they're not consuming everything. And those are what the line does, okay? He lets the 258 +|257 |00:48:45,780 ~-~-> 00:48:53,010 |lionesses do the work. They chase down the prey, they take it down, they kill it. Okay, they may be getting a nibble or two, okay? But he comes over and says, 259 +|258 |00:48:53,010 ~-~-> 00:48:58,860 |Okay, look, it's obvious things did, I'm not wasting any effort. Okay, I'm gonna go over there and run them off. 260 +|259 |00:48:59,430 ~-~-> 00:49:09,810 |I'm gonna eat what I want. And I ain't going to consume it all. I'll leave a portion for them to eat too. But he's getting the lion's share. Every move has a 261 +|260 |00:49:09,810 ~-~-> 00:49:21,570 |lion's share, all you need is a portion of that. Or the Linus is starving? No. Are the Cubs starving? No, everybody's gonna get their piece of the pie. But you 262 +|261 |00:49:21,570 ~-~-> 00:49:29,520 |don't have to rush in here. Trying to get the very, very low and get the very, very high nonwords You don't need to make the kill. And that turns the market 263 +|262 |00:49:29,520 ~-~-> 00:49:40,890 |around. And you don't have to make the apex, you know high. Okay, you don't have to find the very lowest point of the low. Okay, you leave a little bit on there. 264 +|263 |00:49:40,950 ~-~-> 00:49:49,830 |Okay, let those other traders try to chase all that stuff. You don't need that. And the same thing applies. it's applicable to your stops, give it some room. 265 +|264 |00:49:49,890 ~-~-> 00:49:57,660 |Don't be afraid to have the market come back against you. And some of the exercises that you need to be doing is to have a demo account and put your 266 +|265 |00:49:57,660 ~-~-> 00:50:08,700 |trades on and let them Come all the way down to your stop. Okay? Don't think about targets just think okay, I'm gonna be buying today at eight GMT. 267 +|266 |00:50:09,030 ~-~-> 00:50:19,290 |Regardless, wherever the price is up at 30 pips stop one, and just watch what price does, okay? And just assume what you'd be feeling. If you were in the 268 +|267 |00:50:19,290 ~-~-> 00:50:30,090 |marketplace at that time, how the market trades down to your stop what it does after it hits it, okay? And then start applying it with your tools that we 269 +|268 |00:50:30,090 ~-~-> 00:50:38,850 |learned in these videos. Okay, applying the price action study, then using a 30 PIP stop below the entry point that where you enter that, okay, and watch the 270 +|269 |00:50:38,850 ~-~-> 00:50:49,470 |market move once it takes the first profit target that we discussed at 127 extension, or an old high did you pull your own fib from when you see that first 271 +|270 |00:50:49,470 ~-~-> 00:51:00,510 |target hit, don't move your stop up. Okay? Do a couple trades like I do about 20 trades or so. Like that, we just go to breakeven once first targets hit and then 272 +|271 |00:51:00,510 ~-~-> 00:51:09,480 |wait for the second target to be fulfilled, do not move the stop either you get the second target or you get stopped out. Do that for 20 trades, okay? And it's 273 +|272 |00:51:09,480 ~-~-> 00:51:18,630 |obviously easier and faster to do it on the intraday basis. Like Don't you have five minutes 15 minutes setups. But some of you traders can't do that because 274 +|273 |00:51:18,630 ~-~-> 00:51:27,090 |you're you have jobs or whatever, but that's fine. But then eventually then graduate to moving your stop loss in the form that we just discussed. Now by 275 +|274 |00:51:27,090 ~-~-> 00:51:36,840 |having a 15 minute time frame use the most to recent swing lows for bullish scenarios 10 to 15 pips below the lowest, or the most recent to swing lows. 276 +|275 |00:51:37,200 ~-~-> 00:51:46,140 |Okay. And obviously, just for clarity for those that are selling short, using your demo account. Yeah, I got that in here. I'm not trying to tell you to do 277 +|276 |00:51:46,140 ~-~-> 00:51:56,460 |anything with real money. Guys, I'm not licensed to do that. These are just ideas to stimulate you your decision making the selling scenario, you would just 278 +|277 |00:51:56,460 ~-~-> 00:52:05,340 |use the 15 minute most recent to swing highs and the highest of the two, you would use your stop loss 10 to 15 pips above it. And you would trail that 279 +|278 |00:52:05,340 ~-~-> 00:52:18,570 |accordingly until it hits your ultimate target. That's really the essential element to having stoploss management, there's nothing new, much deeper than 280 +|279 |00:52:18,570 ~-~-> 00:52:26,850 |that. It's very simple. I try not to complicate it, I use it have all kinds of intricate ways of doing this and doing that. And I found that you just simply by 281 +|280 |00:52:26,850 ~-~-> 00:52:34,950 |taking a 15 minute chart, use the most recent swing lows and highs wherever to wherever those two are, whatever the lowest one is, that's where I'm going to 282 +|281 |00:52:34,950 ~-~-> 00:52:38,940 |have my stop in, in, in relationship to where price is now. 283 +|282 |00:52:55,170 ~-~-> 00:53:06,570 |Okay, guys, in Episode Seven, we're gonna be looking at selecting multiple targets. We talking about setting a limit orders at logical price levels for 284 +|283 |00:53:06,570 ~-~-> 00:53:23,550 |exits. And we're gonna be talking about the ICT split gains ratio, leaving some for the just in case scenario, principles for multiple timeframe trading. And 285 +|284 |00:53:23,550 ~-~-> 00:53:36,240 |will have the foundation to success that will be given to you in blueprint format in the final episode in this series, Part Eight. And I think you'll have 286 +|285 |00:53:36,240 ~-~-> 00:53:49,020 |a pretty good idea of what should be done from beginning to end stages. And I'm using in a flowchart format for the part eight series where you know, if this is 287 +|286 |00:53:49,020 ~-~-> 00:54:03,330 |if a condition is x, then you go to this next condition. Once that condition is met, you go to next. So I'm, I'm a computer programmer, and I guess anyone that 288 +|287 |00:54:03,330 ~-~-> 00:54:18,540 |has a computer programming experience, would understand that it's the IF THEN scenarios that we learned in computer programming. If If you can't really build 289 +|288 |00:54:18,570 ~-~-> 00:54:30,630 |a mindset of trading after Part Eight, I'm going to readily admit that I've failed in in sharing some insight on how you could become a more consistent 290 +|289 |00:54:30,780 ~-~-> 00:54:39,930 |trader. I put a lot of work and it may seem like there's been a lot of time between these individual videos, but it's actually been a whole lot of work on 291 +|290 |00:54:39,930 ~-~-> 00:54:50,070 |that last one. Because I've tried to give the blanket scenarios for in the common setups that we see you over and over and over again, that's very generic 292 +|291 |00:54:50,070 ~-~-> 00:54:59,970 |in the marketplace. And it won't catch every single move guys and don't expect that of anything. But I think you'll be pleasantly surprised how many 293 +|292 |00:55:00,000 ~-~-> 00:55:10,470 |opportunities it will give you an what to do and why. And once you do it for a few months, you won't need the flow chart format you'll just simply know by 294 +|293 |00:55:10,470 ~-~-> 00:55:21,450 |habit of what you should be doing next and and what to do while the setups are you, you developing. So hopefully this has been insightful to you guys and until 295 +|294 |00:55:21,480 ~-~-> 00:55:23,340 |next time, wish good luck in the trading 4 4 5 -2 6 -00:00:58,530 ~-~-> 00:01:02,880 7 -installment the it CT sniper series and 8 - 9 -3 10 -00:01:02,880 ~-~-> 00:01:05,670 11 -we're going to be looking at few things 12 - 13 -4 14 -00:01:05,670 ~-~-> 00:01:07,830 15 -in this topic, this is probably going to 16 - 17 -5 18 -00:01:07,830 ~-~-> 00:01:09,780 19 -be one of the most brief out of the 20 - 21 -6 22 -00:01:09,780 ~-~-> 00:01:11,610 23 -series, but I promise you, we're gonna 24 - 25 -7 26 -00:01:11,610 ~-~-> 00:01:16,170 27 -have a gangbusters the last two episodes 28 - 29 -8 30 -00:01:16,170 ~-~-> 00:01:18,360 31 -in the series. This one's kind of 32 - 33 -9 34 -00:01:18,660 ~-~-> 00:01:21,060 35 -important because it really focuses on 36 - 37 -10 38 -00:01:21,060 ~-~-> 00:01:23,580 39 -the risk aspect of trading and the 40 - 41 -11 42 -00:01:23,580 ~-~-> 00:01:25,920 43 -element of reducing risk and controlling 44 - 45 -12 46 -00:01:25,920 ~-~-> 00:01:29,400 47 -risk. While we essentially can't remove 48 - 49 -13 50 -00:01:29,400 ~-~-> 00:01:32,430 51 -entirely every aspect of the risk, we 52 - 53 -14 54 -00:01:32,430 ~-~-> 00:01:36,570 55 -can do our best to try to control it as 56 - 57 -15 58 -00:01:36,570 ~-~-> 00:01:40,380 59 -best we can and or mitigate the effects 60 - 61 -16 62 -00:01:40,410 ~-~-> 00:01:45,270 63 -of risk over a period of time.

Now we did wick 264 - 265 -67 266 -00:04:42,120 ~-~-> 00:04:44,190 267 -through it a couple times, getting a 268 - 269 -68 270 -00:04:44,190 ~-~-> 00:04:48,120 271 -small little reaction here now but this 272 - 273 -69 274 -00:04:48,120 ~-~-> 00:04:51,540 275 -is the overall price swing and it broke 276 - 277 -70 278 -00:04:51,540 ~-~-> 00:04:55,980 279 -down here is the 127 easily reached 162 280 - 281 -71 282 -00:04:56,100 ~-~-> 00:04:58,650 283 -easily reach and then went down below 284 - 285 -72 286 -00:04:59,340 ~-~-> 00:05:02,460 287 -these markets. Structure loads are here. 288 - 289 -73 290 -00:05:02,610 ~-~-> 00:05:04,320 291 -Okay, so you can see the complete 292 - 293 -74 294 -00:05:04,650 ~-~-> 00:05:07,890 295 -fruition of the market maker sell model. 296 - 297 -75 298 -00:05:08,670 ~-~-> 00:05:10,440 299 -Here we have the consolidation, the 300 - 301 -76 302 -00:05:10,440 ~-~-> 00:05:13,260 303 -breakout of it, the first little pause 304 - 305 -77 306 -00:05:13,260 ~-~-> 00:05:17,490 307 -in here and rally up, failure swing, and 308 - 309 -78 310 -00:05:17,490 ~-~-> 00:05:19,560 311 -then subsequent optimal trade entries, 312 - 313 -79 314 -00:05:19,590 ~-~-> 00:05:22,440 315 -which we call this event right here on 316 - 317 -80 318 -00:05:22,440 ~-~-> 00:05:25,830 319 -Twitter and slammed it down. Okay, we 320 - 321 -81 322 -00:05:25,830 ~-~-> 00:05:29,190 323 -were calling in advance this level here, 324 - 325 -82 326 -00:05:29,580 ~-~-> 00:05:32,910 327 -in this level in here as well. You can 328 - 329 -83 330 -00:05:32,910 ~-~-> 00:05:34,710 331 -find that on Twitter. Again, it's all 332 - 333 -84 334 -00:05:34,710 ~-~-> 00:05:41,010 335 -time and date stamped. Now, you could 336 - 337 -85 338 -00:05:41,580 ~-~-> 00:05:43,650 339 -take this even further and go down to a 340 - 341 -86 342 -00:05:43,650 ~-~-> 00:05:48,810 343 -15 minute time frame. Okay, and just 344 - 345 -87 346 -00:05:48,810 ~-~-> 00:05:50,850 347 -simply looking at the fifth of the 348 - 349 -88 350 -00:05:50,850 ~-~-> 00:05:55,680 351 -member.

So anything moving down in 364 - 365 -92 366 -00:06:03,150 ~-~-> 00:06:08,280 367 -price will most likely be a third level 368 - 369 -93 370 -00:06:10,590 ~-~-> 00:06:11,880 371 -for downside objectives 372 - 373 -94 374 -00:06:19,019 ~-~-> 00:06:22,109 375 -Okay, here's the 127 extension from this 376 - 377 -95 378 -00:06:22,109 ~-~-> 00:06:26,189 379 -low to high. It's 127 and 162. And then 380 - 381 -96 382 -00:06:26,189 ~-~-> 00:06:29,459 383 -200 extension here. And as a result 384 - 385 -97 386 -00:06:29,459 ~-~-> 00:06:37,049 387 -prices up here, okay? You can see take 388 - 389 -98 390 -00:06:37,049 ~-~-> 00:06:39,869 391 -the seller fibs off, starting to blend. 392 - 393 -99 394 -00:06:42,149 ~-~-> 00:06:44,429 395 -While price is moving lower, you see 396 - 397 -100 398 -00:06:44,429 ~-~-> 00:06:47,129 399 -this rally up. Once it takes the low 400 - 401 -101 402 -00:06:47,129 ~-~-> 00:06:48,599 403 -that we're anchoring the fed from out. 404 - 405 -102 406 -00:06:50,339 ~-~-> 00:06:52,859 407 -Okay, this being the fulcrum point, if 408 - 409 -103 410 -00:06:52,859 ~-~-> 00:06:56,249 411 -you're 127 you're 162 and just fell 412 - 413 -104 414 -00:06:56,249 ~-~-> 00:06:58,379 415 -short of the 200 extension here and 416 - 417 -105 418 -00:06:58,379 ~-~-> 00:06:59,879 419 -again, that's the reason why I don't 420 - 421 -106 422 -00:06:59,879 ~-~-> 00:07:02,189 423 -really Marry, the idea that the 200 424 - 425 -107 426 -00:07:02,219 ~-~-> 00:07:03,569 427 -always going to get hit. I really liked 428 - 429 -108 430 -00:07:03,569 ~-~-> 00:07:06,239 431 -the 162.

And then when 584 - 585 -147 586 -00:09:13,080 ~-~-> 00:09:15,540 587 -it does that we have, it's referred to 588 - 589 -148 590 -00:09:15,540 ~-~-> 00:09:18,150 591 -as market symmetry and trading patterns 592 - 593 -149 594 -00:09:18,150 ~-~-> 00:09:23,070 595 -and setups become very, very clean and 596 - 597 -150 598 -00:09:23,070 ~-~-> 00:09:25,410 599 -very high probability when that occurs. 600 - 601 -151 602 -00:09:26,160 ~-~-> 00:09:28,170 603 -Okay, since we taken out this low, I'm 604 - 605 -152 606 -00:09:28,170 ~-~-> 00:09:31,140 607 -sorry, this high rather here. Okay, one 608 - 609 -153 610 -00:09:31,140 ~-~-> 00:09:38,370 611 -could do this on high down this low. You 612 - 613 -154 614 -00:09:38,370 ~-~-> 00:09:40,650 615 -have 127 up here, and you want to show 616 - 617 -155 618 -00:09:40,650 ~-~-> 00:09:42,330 619 -up here, which incidentally is an old 620 - 621 -156 622 -00:09:42,330 ~-~-> 00:09:48,390 623 -high back here, you zoom out. See that 624 - 625 -157 626 -00:09:48,480 ~-~-> 00:09:51,180 627 -is the case and we're here. Again, it's 628 - 629 -158 630 -00:09:51,180 ~-~-> 00:09:52,560 631 -assuming we do have traction and 632 - 633 -159 634 -00:09:52,560 ~-~-> 00:09:54,750 635 -continue to move higher. The next pair 636 - 637 -160 638 -00:09:54,750 ~-~-> 00:09:56,250 639 -we're going to look at is the British 640 - 641 -161 642 -00:09:56,250 ~-~-> 00:10:01,080 643 -Pound USD and Here you go is a nice 644 - 645 -162 646 -00:10:02,370 ~-~-> 00:10:04,770 647 -order block and then reaction of it. 648 - 649 -163 650 -00:10:04,980 ~-~-> 00:10:08,070 651 -This was put on the chart in advance and 652 - 653 -164 654 -00:10:08,280 ~-~-> 00:10:10,590 655 -you can see the reaction of price 656 - 657 -165 658 -00:10:10,590 ~-~-> 00:10:14,100 659 -afterwards. But we're going to look at 660 - 661 -166 662 -00:10:15,780 ~-~-> 00:10:20,010 663 -taking this fit off and we'll take the 664 - 665 -167 666 -00:10:20,010 ~-~-> 00:10:28,680 667 -rectangle off. zoom a little bit. Okay, 668 - 669 -168 670 -00:10:29,700 ~-~-> 00:10:32,130 671 -now we have the same scenario here. We 672 - 673 -169 674 -00:10:32,130 ~-~-> 00:10:35,190 675 -have price moving down, nice price leg 676 - 677 -170 678 -00:10:35,190 ~-~-> 00:10:38,850 679 -here, comes in rejects this low. Okay, 680 - 681 -171 682 -00:10:38,880 ~-~-> 00:10:41,040 683 -there's several of them in here and you 684 - 685 -172 686 -00:10:41,040 ~-~-> 00:10:43,500 687 -can use obviously, we'll use this one 688 - 689 -173 690 -00:10:43,500 ~-~-> 00:10:46,050 691 -here, this swing when this high here, 692 - 693 -174 694 -00:10:46,050 ~-~-> 00:10:49,350 695 -rancor and it's broke to the upside. You 696 - 697 -175 698 -00:10:49,350 ~-~-> 00:10:52,530 699 -see the Fibonacci levels come into play. 700 - 701 -176 702 -00:10:52,530 ~-~-> 00:10:56,490 703 -Here's the 127 easily reached 162 and 704 - 705 -177 706 -00:10:56,490 ~-~-> 00:10:59,160 707 -then 200 extension here. Okay, going 708 - 709 -178 710 -00:10:59,160 ~-~-> 00:11:00,630 711 -back to this higher market structure 712 - 713 -179 714 -00:11:00,630 ~-~-> 00:11:02,730 715 -high here using that same reference low 716 - 717 -180 718 -00:11:06,060 ~-~-> 00:11:09,810 719 -This is how you trade within a markets 720 - 721 -181 722 -00:11:10,110 ~-~-> 00:11:14,280 723 -structure. So once this highest violated 724 - 725 -182 726 -00:11:14,490 ~-~-> 00:11:16,530 727 -right here, we would be looking for 728 - 729 -183 730 -00:11:16,530 ~-~-> 00:11:19,680 731 -upside objectives 127 easily reached 732 - 733 -184 734 -00:11:20,310 ~-~-> 00:11:22,860 735 -once you can easily reached 200 level 736 - 737 -185 738 -00:11:23,160 ~-~-> 00:11:27,420 739 -easily reached. Okay. Let's go out to an 740 - 741 -186 742 -00:11:27,420 ~-~-> 00:11:33,450 743 -hourly chart, same pair. Okay, let's 744 - 745 -187 746 -00:11:33,510 ~-~-> 00:11:34,530 747 -scroll up a little bit. 748 - 749 -188 750 -00:11:35,760 ~-~-> 00:11:36,450 751 -And now 752 - 753 -189 754 -00:11:42,750 ~-~-> 00:11:48,960 755 -since I can get this fib Okay, we'll use 756 - 757 -190 758 -00:11:48,960 ~-~-> 00:11:51,840 759 -this high here. And price just reached 760 - 761 -191 762 -00:11:51,840 ~-~-> 00:11:54,060 763 -the 127 extension here and the upside 764 - 765 -192 766 -00:11:54,060 ~-~-> 00:12:00,000 767 -would be 162. And if you use this hi 768 - 769 -193 770 -00:12:00,000 ~-~-> 00:12:01,860 771 -Here, all we're doing is moving out to 772 - 773 -194 774 -00:12:01,860 ~-~-> 00:12:06,060 775 -the next successive market. Hi. So each 776 - 777 -195 778 -00:12:06,060 ~-~-> 00:12:07,440 779 -one of these is a price swing, you have 780 - 781 -196 782 -00:12:07,440 ~-~-> 00:12:09,780 783 -a high down to that low, you have a high 784 - 785 -197 786 -00:12:09,780 ~-~-> 00:12:11,580 787 -down that that same low, okay, these are 788 - 789 -198 790 -00:12:12,390 ~-~-> 00:12:15,180 791 -all reference points for reactions. 792 - 793 -199 794 -00:12:15,420 ~-~-> 00:12:21,900 795 -Okay, you have 127 now here and you have 796 - 797 -200 798 -00:12:21,900 ~-~-> 00:12:27,630 799 -this one here is a lot of liquidity 800 - 801 -201 802 -00:12:27,630 ~-~-> 00:12:28,860 803 -sitting right above that these are all 804 - 805 -202 806 -00:12:28,860 ~-~-> 00:12:30,960 807 -hourly candles, unable to make a higher 808 - 809 -203 810 -00:12:30,960 ~-~-> 00:12:32,970 811 -high in here. And now we're about to 812 - 813 -204 814 -00:12:32,970 ~-~-> 00:12:34,380 815 -blow that out right now while I'm 816 - 817 -205 818 -00:12:34,380 ~-~-> 00:12:38,790 819 -recording. And then the 127 resides up 820 - 821 -206 822 -00:12:38,790 ~-~-> 00:12:42,270 823 -there. Now, with these levels in mind, 824 - 825 -207 826 -00:12:42,690 ~-~-> 00:12:49,800 827 -okay. We're going to highlight that 162 828 - 829 -208 830 -00:12:54,480 ~-~-> 00:13:04,320 831 -to 127 and Now what I'm gonna do is I'm 832 - 833 -209 834 -00:13:04,320 ~-~-> 00:13:09,420 835 -gonna reference this larger price swing. 836 - 837 -210 838 -00:13:10,860 ~-~-> 00:13:12,330 839 -Because remember markets are fractal, 840 - 841 -211 842 -00:13:12,660 ~-~-> 00:13:16,020 843 -okay? And the high down to lowest low. 844 - 845 -212 846 -00:13:16,950 ~-~-> 00:13:19,200 847 -You see what resides over here. Here's 848 - 849 -213 850 -00:13:19,200 ~-~-> 00:13:22,290 851 -the 62% sweet spot in southern lights 852 - 853 -214 854 -00:13:22,290 ~-~-> 00:13:24,420 855 -and chasing a level there's a high 856 - 857 -215 858 -00:13:24,420 ~-~-> 00:13:26,460 859 -probability to cable or reach out to 860 - 861 -216 862 -00:13:26,460 ~-~-> 00:13:27,420 863 -these levels in here. 864 - 865 -217 866 -00:13:32,640 ~-~-> 00:13:38,520 867 -Okay, and you can just note that read in 868 - 869 -218 870 -00:13:38,520 ~-~-> 00:13:43,170 871 -there. Okay? And that would be a good 872 - 873 -219 874 -00:13:43,170 ~-~-> 00:13:47,070 875 -area to have some scenarios. We have an 876 - 877 -220 878 -00:13:47,070 ~-~-> 00:13:50,460 879 -order block in here. That can be a 880 - 881 -221 882 -00:13:50,460 ~-~-> 00:13:53,130 883 -factor if we get through this area in 884 - 885 -222 886 -00:13:53,130 ~-~-> 00:13:55,920 887 -here, because this is a nice support 888 - 889 -223 890 -00:13:55,920 ~-~-> 00:13:59,160 891 -level. Never been retested. So we may 892 - 893 -224 894 -00:13:59,160 ~-~-> 00:14:01,440 895 -come up to sec two retracing, however, 896 - 897 -225 898 -00:14:01,440 ~-~-> 00:14:07,830 899 -on that 161 25 level 161 32 we could tap 900 - 901 -226 902 -00:14:07,830 ~-~-> 00:14:12,750 903 -into that. But any uncommon blending 904 - 905 -227 906 -00:14:12,870 ~-~-> 00:14:15,060 907 -couple things here, but the Fibonacci 908 - 909 -228 910 -00:14:15,870 ~-~-> 00:14:18,180 911 -price projections, but hopefully you got 912 - 913 -229 914 -00:14:18,630 ~-~-> 00:14:20,160 915 -a few examples here you can see how 916 - 917 -230 918 -00:14:20,760 ~-~-> 00:14:22,770 919 -useful they are and from the time we did 920 - 921 -231 922 -00:14:22,770 ~-~-> 00:14:28,920 923 -our recording the last time let's just 924 - 925 -232 926 -00:14:28,920 ~-~-> 00:14:30,900 927 -give a sell scenario. And we had this 928 - 929 -233 930 -00:14:30,900 ~-~-> 00:14:33,120 931 -price rally up, when this low is 932 - 933 -234 934 -00:14:33,120 ~-~-> 00:14:36,120 935 -violated as it is here. This low becomes 936 - 937 -235 938 -00:14:36,120 ~-~-> 00:14:39,450 939 -a fulcrum point in any price action from 940 - 941 -236 942 -00:14:39,450 ~-~-> 00:14:43,020 943 -that point from that low up here. Once 944 - 945 -237 946 -00:14:43,020 ~-~-> 00:14:45,450 947 -it's finally lower. Here's the 127 948 - 949 -238 950 -00:14:45,450 ~-~-> 00:14:48,840 951 -easily met 162 easily met 200% extension 952 - 953 -239 954 -00:14:49,320 ~-~-> 00:14:58,020 955 -easily met. Okay.

Okay, so 1096 - 1097 -275 1098 -00:16:45,180 ~-~-> 00:16:46,920 1099 -every row you see here, just reverse it, 1100 - 1101 -276 1102 -00:16:47,400 ~-~-> 00:16:50,190 1103 -and you'll get the understanding for 1104 - 1105 -277 1106 -00:16:50,190 ~-~-> 00:16:52,560 1107 -selling short in the market and how to 1108 - 1109 -278 1110 -00:16:52,560 ~-~-> 00:16:56,220 1111 -control your stops and such. Okay, we're 1112 - 1113 -279 1114 -00:16:56,220 ~-~-> 00:16:58,230 1115 -going to assume that we have a key level 1116 - 1117 -280 1118 -00:16:58,230 ~-~-> 00:17:00,270 1119 -and or institutional order Lock 1120 - 1121 -281 1122 -00:17:00,270 ~-~-> 00:17:02,220 1123 -identified on our charts. And again, 1124 - 1125 -282 1126 -00:17:02,220 ~-~-> 00:17:03,450 1127 -we're gonna be looking at a daily chart 1128 - 1129 -283 1130 -00:17:03,450 ~-~-> 00:17:06,660 1131 -for this example. And the market has 1132 - 1133 -284 1134 -00:17:06,690 ~-~-> 00:17:08,700 1135 -been showing in this crude example in 1136 - 1137 -285 1138 -00:17:08,700 ~-~-> 00:17:11,970 1139 -hypothetical terms, that price would be 1140 - 1141 -286 1142 -00:17:12,330 ~-~-> 00:17:15,720 1143 -more or less trading down to our line 1144 - 1145 -287 1146 -00:17:15,720 ~-~-> 00:17:20,820 1147 -here of anticipation. And as price 1148 - 1149 -288 1150 -00:17:20,820 ~-~-> 00:17:23,670 1151 -starts to move aggressively down to that 1152 - 1153 -289 1154 -00:17:23,670 ~-~-> 00:17:26,760 1155 -level, we would be, hopefully if we're 1156 - 1157 -290 1158 -00:17:26,760 ~-~-> 00:17:27,840 1159 -not in front of our charts, who would 1160 - 1161 -291 1162 -00:17:27,840 ~-~-> 00:17:30,960 1163 -have our platform for trading, alert us 1164 - 1165 -292 1166 -00:17:31,020 ~-~-> 00:17:33,480 1167 -to the fact that price is getting to our 1168 - 1169 -293 1170 -00:17:33,480 ~-~-> 00:17:35,430 1171 -specific higher timeframe price level, 1172 - 1173 -294 1174 -00:17:36,300 ~-~-> 00:17:38,820 1175 -as price trades to that level, again, 1176 - 1177 -295 1178 -00:17:38,820 ~-~-> 00:17:41,250 1179 -because we are flexible, we are not 1180 - 1181 -296 1182 -00:17:41,550 ~-~-> 00:17:44,370 1183 -limiting our perspective simply to one 1184 - 1185 -297 1186 -00:17:44,370 ~-~-> 00:17:46,170 1187 -line, therefore, it has to stop on that 1188 - 1189 -298 1190 -00:17:46,170 ~-~-> 00:17:49,050 1191 -line turn on a dime. Okay, there is a 1192 - 1193 -299 1194 -00:17:49,050 ~-~-> 00:17:51,060 1195 -gray area in trading that we I 1196 - 1197 -300 1198 -00:17:51,120 ~-~-> 00:17:53,190 1199 -identified earlier in the series, and 1200 - 1201 -301 1202 -00:17:53,190 ~-~-> 00:17:56,460 1203 -we've come to hopefully by now, terms 1204 - 1205 -302 1206 -00:17:56,460 ~-~-> 00:17:58,890 1207 -with the fact that we can't get 1208 - 1209 -303 1210 -00:17:59,010 ~-~-> 00:18:00,570 1211 -perfection in the market. To place in 1212 - 1213 -304 1214 -00:18:00,570 ~-~-> 00:18:03,000 1215 -terms of turning points, okay, we have 1216 - 1217 -305 1218 -00:18:03,150 ~-~-> 00:18:06,630 1219 -rough ideas where price should turn, but 1220 - 1221 -306 1222 -00:18:06,660 ~-~-> 00:18:08,970 1223 -even the highest level key levels and 1224 - 1225 -307 1226 -00:18:08,970 ~-~-> 00:18:10,980 1227 -support levels and institutional order 1228 - 1229 -308 1230 -00:18:10,980 ~-~-> 00:18:15,600 1231 -blocks have a little bit of gray areas 1232 - 1233 -309 1234 -00:18:15,600 ~-~-> 00:18:16,920 1235 -where it could deviate just a little 1236 - 1237 -310 1238 -00:18:16,920 ~-~-> 00:18:19,680 1239 -bit. But more specifically, we're gonna 1240 - 1241 -311 1242 -00:18:19,680 ~-~-> 00:18:21,180 1243 -be highlighting, obviously, all of our 1244 - 1245 -312 1246 -00:18:21,180 ~-~-> 00:18:23,760 1247 -trades around key levels around numbers, 1248 - 1249 -313 1250 -00:18:23,760 ~-~-> 00:18:26,730 1251 -institutional levels, and a confluence 1252 - 1253 -314 1254 -00:18:26,760 ~-~-> 00:18:30,090 1255 -of support and resistance factors with 1256 - 1257 -315 1258 -00:18:30,210 ~-~-> 00:18:32,100 1259 -time of day. Okay, so you haven't time 1260 - 1261 -316 1262 -00:18:32,100 ~-~-> 00:18:35,370 1263 -and price theory combined. So as price 1264 - 1265 -317 1266 -00:18:35,370 ~-~-> 00:18:38,340 1267 -goes down into this level, that's when 1268 - 1269 -318 1270 -00:18:38,340 ~-~-> 00:18:42,540 1271 -we are on the prowl for a buy scenario, 1272 - 1273 -319 1274 -00:18:42,570 ~-~-> 00:18:44,460 1275 -okay, we're trying to buy during that 1276 - 1277 -320 1278 -00:18:44,460 ~-~-> 00:18:46,620 1279 -event. We don't want to be buying after 1280 - 1281 -321 1282 -00:18:46,620 ~-~-> 00:18:48,360 1283 -the move has already turned around and 1284 - 1285 -322 1286 -00:18:48,360 ~-~-> 00:18:50,160 1287 -everybody sees that it's a swing low and 1288 - 1289 -323 1290 -00:18:50,160 ~-~-> 00:18:51,930 1291 -it's moved up for three or four days. We 1292 - 1293 -324 1294 -00:18:51,930 ~-~-> 00:18:55,320 1295 -want to be buying in a suppressed market 1296 - 1297 -325 1298 -00:18:55,320 ~-~-> 00:18:56,490 1299 -environment. We're going to be looking 1300 - 1301 -326 1302 -00:18:56,490 ~-~-> 00:18:58,980 1303 -at bargain prices, okay? We don't want 1304 - 1305 -327 1306 -00:18:58,980 ~-~-> 00:19:00,960 1307 -to be buying at retail prices, we 1308 - 1309 -328 1310 -00:19:00,960 ~-~-> 00:19:02,940 1311 -wouldn't be buying wholesale. Okay, so 1312 - 1313 -329 1314 -00:19:03,480 ~-~-> 00:19:05,370 1315 -assuming that we use the information we 1316 - 1317 -330 1318 -00:19:05,370 ~-~-> 00:19:07,860 1319 -talked about earlier in this series, in 1320 - 1321 -331 1322 -00:19:07,860 ~-~-> 00:19:11,760 1323 -terms of framing a reactionary level to 1324 - 1325 -332 1326 -00:19:11,760 ~-~-> 00:19:14,970 1327 -a trade, we're going to assume that we 1328 - 1329 -333 1330 -00:19:14,970 ~-~-> 00:19:17,010 1331 -anticipated at that key level, the 1332 - 1333 -334 1334 -00:19:17,010 ~-~-> 00:19:18,930 1335 -market had turned. Okay, and maybe 1336 - 1337 -335 1338 -00:19:18,930 ~-~-> 00:19:21,090 1339 -retesting gave us an optimal trade entry 1340 - 1341 -336 1342 -00:19:21,090 ~-~-> 00:19:22,950 1343 -on a lower timeframe. Now, we're going 1344 - 1345 -337 1346 -00:19:22,950 ~-~-> 00:19:25,020 1347 -to assume for this example, that we were 1348 - 1349 -338 1350 -00:19:25,050 ~-~-> 00:19:26,970 1351 -fortunate enough to catch a long 1352 - 1353 -339 1354 -00:19:26,970 ~-~-> 00:19:30,540 1355 -position at that key level, okay? And 1356 - 1357 -340 1358 -00:19:30,540 ~-~-> 00:19:32,970 1359 -it's not important that we have a 1360 - 1361 -341 1362 -00:19:33,480 ~-~-> 00:19:35,790 1363 -specific price level in this example. 1364 - 1365 -342 1366 -00:19:36,660 ~-~-> 00:19:38,490 1367 -Because really, what we're going to be 1368 - 1369 -343 1370 -00:19:38,490 ~-~-> 00:19:41,970 1371 -looking at is how traders are always in 1372 - 1373 -344 1374 -00:19:41,970 ~-~-> 00:19:44,220 1375 -my experience, okay, even when I was an 1376 - 1377 -345 1378 -00:19:44,220 ~-~-> 00:19:46,650 1379 -early developing trader, I felt the need 1380 - 1381 -346 1382 -00:19:46,650 ~-~-> 00:19:49,080 1383 -to want to exit the trade immediately. 1384 - 1385 -347 1386 -00:19:49,290 ~-~-> 00:19:52,140 1387 -As soon as I saw some gains, I had this 1388 - 1389 -348 1390 -00:19:52,140 ~-~-> 00:19:54,030 1391 -overwhelming feeling that I had to hurry 1392 - 1393 -349 1394 -00:19:54,030 ~-~-> 00:19:56,040 1395 -up and get out and close the trade. If I 1396 - 1397 -350 1398 -00:19:56,040 ~-~-> 00:19:58,170 1399 -was several hundred dollars, I would 1400 - 1401 -351 1402 -00:19:58,470 ~-~-> 00:20:00,750 1403 -think wow, this is good, you know? I've 1404 - 1405 -352 1406 -00:20:00,810 ~-~-> 00:20:03,750 1407 -taken losses in a series of losses, this 1408 - 1409 -353 1410 -00:20:03,750 ~-~-> 00:20:05,700 1411 -feels good. And I just would rather not 1412 - 1413 -354 1414 -00:20:05,700 ~-~-> 00:20:07,800 1415 -leave the market with another loss after 1416 - 1417 -355 1418 -00:20:07,800 ~-~-> 00:20:11,520 1419 -seeing these gains when you have a sound 1420 - 1421 -356 1422 -00:20:11,580 ~-~-> 00:20:15,360 1423 -entry, many times, those are the 1424 - 1425 -357 1426 -00:20:15,360 ~-~-> 00:20:17,940 1427 -scariest trades to hold on to. Okay? 1428 - 1429 -358 1430 -00:20:18,180 ~-~-> 00:20:21,450 1431 -Because the good trades don't spend 1432 - 1433 -359 1434 -00:20:21,600 ~-~-> 00:20:24,570 1435 -their time very long. at wholesale 1436 - 1437 -360 1438 -00:20:24,570 ~-~-> 00:20:26,640 1439 -prices, they immediately start to move 1440 - 1441 -361 1442 -00:20:26,640 ~-~-> 00:20:29,340 1443 -to retail level pricing, okay. In other 1444 - 1445 -362 1446 -00:20:29,340 ~-~-> 00:20:31,860 1447 -words, if you're able to catch a very 1448 - 1449 -363 1450 -00:20:31,860 ~-~-> 00:20:34,710 1451 -low price point, and you're long in the 1452 - 1453 -364 1454 -00:20:34,710 ~-~-> 00:20:37,320 1455 -marketplace, you anticipated 1456 - 1457 -365 1458 -00:20:37,320 ~-~-> 00:20:40,470 1459 -professional trader prices moving rather 1460 - 1461 -366 1462 -00:20:41,400 ~-~-> 00:20:43,590 1463 -aggressively away from that level. Okay. 1464 - 1465 -367 1466 -00:20:43,740 ~-~-> 00:20:45,150 1467 -And that's what we talked about earlier 1468 - 1469 -368 1470 -00:20:45,180 ~-~-> 00:20:48,660 1471 -in our series that the more conviction 1472 - 1473 -369 1474 -00:20:48,660 ~-~-> 00:20:50,460 1475 -that we see behind price moving away 1476 - 1477 -370 1478 -00:20:50,460 ~-~-> 00:20:52,080 1479 -from from a specific level that we 1480 - 1481 -371 1482 -00:20:52,110 ~-~-> 00:20:55,080 1483 -hopefully predetermined in advance, that 1484 - 1485 -372 1486 -00:20:55,170 ~-~-> 00:20:58,410 1487 -is what we would anticipate seeing in 1488 - 1489 -373 1490 -00:20:58,410 ~-~-> 00:20:59,970 1491 -our trades once we've entered it. We 1492 - 1493 -374 1494 -00:21:00,000 ~-~-> 00:21:02,490 1495 -Don't want to see the market dragon its 1496 - 1497 -375 1498 -00:21:02,490 ~-~-> 00:21:04,590 1499 -heels and, and lethargic Lee moving 1500 - 1501 -376 1502 -00:21:04,590 ~-~-> 00:21:07,440 1503 -around because we're going to be 1504 - 1505 -377 1506 -00:21:07,440 ~-~-> 00:21:10,650 1507 -mentioning time stops in this in this 1508 - 1509 -378 1510 -00:21:10,650 ~-~-> 00:21:12,150 1511 -episode too. I'm not going to beat it to 1512 - 1513 -379 1514 -00:21:12,150 ~-~-> 00:21:14,010 1515 -death but I do use a time stop and 1516 - 1517 -380 1518 -00:21:14,010 ~-~-> 00:21:15,210 1519 -I'll explain that as we get to that 1520 - 1521 -381 1522 -00:21:15,210 ~-~-> 00:21:17,760 1523 -point. But as the market starts to move 1524 - 1525 -382 1526 -00:21:17,760 ~-~-> 00:21:20,310 1527 -in our favor Okay, we will be reaching 1528 - 1529 -383 1530 -00:21:20,310 ~-~-> 00:21:23,040 1531 -for our predetermined price points like 1532 - 1533 -384 1534 -00:21:23,040 ~-~-> 00:21:25,950 1535 -we discussed in part five of the series 1536 - 1537 -385 1538 -00:21:25,950 ~-~-> 00:21:27,540 1539 -where we looked at a fib to give the 1540 - 1541 -386 1542 -00:21:27,540 ~-~-> 00:21:30,900 1543 -127 162 extensions as possible upside 1544 - 1545 -387 1546 -00:21:30,900 ~-~-> 00:21:33,240 1547 -objectives. Now again, those with 1548 - 1549 -388 1550 -00:21:33,240 ~-~-> 00:21:35,730 1551 -confluence of supporting factors with 1552 - 1553 -389 1554 -00:21:35,760 ~-~-> 00:21:37,410 1555 -support resistance, maybe even pivot 1556 - 1557 -390 1558 -00:21:37,410 ~-~-> 00:21:40,620 1559 -points, something like an old higher low 1560 - 1561 -391 1562 -00:21:40,890 ~-~-> 00:21:44,490 1563 -to to frame those upper level 1564 - 1565 -392 1566 -00:21:44,490 ~-~-> 00:21:46,230 1567 -objectives. Not simply because the fib 1568 - 1569 -393 1570 -00:21:46,230 ~-~-> 00:21:47,610 1571 -calls that level, we want to be looking 1572 - 1573 -394 1574 -00:21:47,610 ~-~-> 00:21:49,350 1575 -for other things as well. Again, 1576 - 1577 -395 1578 -00:21:49,740 ~-~-> 00:21:51,990 1579 -factoring the time and day of week 1580 - 1581 -396 1582 -00:21:52,020 ~-~-> 00:21:55,320 1583 -phenomenon as well. Now again, getting 1584 - 1585 -397 1586 -00:21:55,320 ~-~-> 00:21:56,940 1587 -back to this crude example as we have 1588 - 1589 -398 1590 -00:21:56,940 ~-~-> 00:21:59,460 1591 -here, when the market is now moving away 1592 - 1593 -399 1594 -00:21:59,460 ~-~-> 00:22:01,590 1595 -from your entry Point. Okay, one of the 1596 - 1597 -400 1598 -00:22:02,430 ~-~-> 00:22:07,140 1599 -closest things to insanity is when you 1600 - 1601 -401 1602 -00:22:07,140 ~-~-> 00:22:10,740 1603 -have this environment unfolding for you 1604 - 1605 -402 1606 -00:22:11,040 ~-~-> 00:22:14,610 1607 -profitably, okay? It's amazing how 1608 - 1609 -403 1610 -00:22:14,730 ~-~-> 00:22:17,730 1611 -traders and I knew this firsthand. Okay, 1612 - 1613 -404 1614 -00:22:17,970 ~-~-> 00:22:20,670 1615 -when I first began trading, I would hold 1616 - 1617 -405 1618 -00:22:20,670 ~-~-> 00:22:25,050 1619 -a losing trade for ever and for forever 1620 - 1621 -406 1622 -00:22:25,620 ~-~-> 00:22:29,280 1623 -and forever. And I'm sure you probably 1624 - 1625 -407 1626 -00:22:29,280 ~-~-> 00:22:30,780 1627 -felt that same thing too when you're 1628 - 1629 -408 1630 -00:22:30,780 ~-~-> 00:22:32,880 1631 -trading because you really want to see a 1632 - 1633 -409 1634 -00:22:32,880 ~-~-> 00:22:36,450 1635 -turnaround and hope springs eternal. Not 1636 - 1637 -410 1638 -00:22:36,450 ~-~-> 00:22:39,000 1639 -in forex, not in speculation and 1640 - 1641 -411 1642 -00:22:39,000 ~-~-> 00:22:41,430 1643 -certainly not in trading. Okay, so the 1644 - 1645 -412 1646 -00:22:41,430 ~-~-> 00:22:42,630 1647 -market doesn't have to go back to your 1648 - 1649 -413 1650 -00:22:42,630 ~-~-> 00:22:44,400 1651 -price point. Okay, if you look at the 1652 - 1653 -414 1654 -00:22:44,400 ~-~-> 00:22:46,950 1655 -Dow just look at anything from seven 1656 - 1657 -415 1658 -00:22:46,950 ~-~-> 00:22:48,840 1659 -months ago. It's been a losses as 1660 - 1661 -416 1662 -00:22:48,840 ~-~-> 00:22:51,210 1663 -impacted as levels. Okay. So if you've 1664 - 1665 -417 1666 -00:22:51,210 ~-~-> 00:22:53,370 1667 -been waiting for the market to get back 1668 - 1669 -418 1670 -00:22:53,370 ~-~-> 00:22:56,340 1671 -to those levels, man, you're going to 1672 - 1673 -419 1674 -00:22:56,340 ~-~-> 00:22:59,220 1675 -grind these pieces, okay? So don't do 1676 - 1677 -420 1678 -00:22:59,220 ~-~-> 00:23:00,840 1679 -that. Have a great day. determind area 1680 - 1681 -421 1682 -00:23:00,870 ~-~-> 00:23:02,670 1683 -where you would expect to cut your 1684 - 1685 -422 1686 -00:23:02,670 ~-~-> 00:23:06,720 1687 -losses short. Okay? What is the industry 1688 - 1689 -423 1690 -00:23:06,720 ~-~-> 00:23:09,540 1691 -standard for risk? Okay, you commonly 1692 - 1693 -424 1694 -00:23:09,540 ~-~-> 00:23:12,090 1695 -hear and I hear myself say all the time 1696 - 1697 -425 1698 -00:23:12,090 ~-~-> 00:23:14,040 1699 -in these videos, because I want to more 1700 - 1701 -426 1702 -00:23:14,040 ~-~-> 00:23:20,580 1703 -or less segue into the majority of 1704 - 1705 -427 1706 -00:23:20,580 ~-~-> 00:23:23,310 1707 -everyone's expectations analysis. But 1708 - 1709 -428 1710 -00:23:23,310 ~-~-> 00:23:25,350 1711 -really what I try to do is say, Okay, 1712 - 1713 -429 1714 -00:23:25,350 ~-~-> 00:23:27,900 1715 -look, everybody says 2% of your equity 1716 - 1717 -430 1718 -00:23:27,930 ~-~-> 00:23:30,210 1719 -portrayed. Okay? And if you're really, 1720 - 1721 -431 1722 -00:23:30,210 ~-~-> 00:23:31,620 1723 -really solid trader, there's nothing 1724 - 1725 -432 1726 -00:23:31,620 ~-~-> 00:23:34,740 1727 -wrong with that. Okay? Now I suggest 1728 - 1729 -433 1730 -00:23:34,740 ~-~-> 00:23:36,780 1731 -that traders should work within the 1732 - 1733 -434 1734 -00:23:36,780 ~-~-> 00:23:40,050 1735 -realm of 1% of their equity portrayed. 1736 - 1737 -435 1738 -00:23:41,370 ~-~-> 00:23:43,050 1739 -Now, the reason for that is assuming 1740 - 1741 -436 1742 -00:23:43,050 ~-~-> 00:23:45,300 1743 -that you had a $10,000 trading account, 1744 - 1745 -437 1746 -00:23:45,570 ~-~-> 00:23:47,790 1747 -and you were risking 1%, how much money 1748 - 1749 -438 1750 -00:23:47,790 ~-~-> 00:23:52,650 1751 -would be at risk portrayed $100 against 1752 - 1753 -439 1754 -00:23:52,980 ~-~-> 00:23:56,010 1755 -the standard 2%, which would be $200 per 1756 - 1757 -440 1758 -00:23:56,370 ~-~-> 00:23:58,920 1759 -trade total risk, the way you determine 1760 - 1761 -441 1762 -00:23:58,950 ~-~-> 00:24:01,830 1763 -your PIP sizes, you take that $200, if 1764 - 1765 -442 1766 -00:24:01,830 ~-~-> 00:24:05,970 1767 -it's 2%, or 1%, at $100 total risk of 1768 - 1769 -443 1770 -00:24:06,360 ~-~-> 00:24:08,250 1771 -assuming that you have a $10,000 trading 1772 - 1773 -444 1774 -00:24:08,250 ~-~-> 00:24:11,580 1775 -account. If it's a $1,000 trading 1776 - 1777 -445 1778 -00:24:11,580 ~-~-> 00:24:14,700 1779 -account, then it would be a $10 for 1% 1780 - 1781 -446 1782 -00:24:15,570 ~-~-> 00:24:21,030 1783 -or $20 for 2%, total equity risk per 1784 - 1785 -447 1786 -00:24:21,030 ~-~-> 00:24:23,400 1787 -trade, whatever that dollar amount is 1788 - 1789 -448 1790 -00:24:23,400 ~-~-> 00:24:26,040 1791 -percentage wise, whether it be 1% or 2%, 1792 - 1793 -449 1794 -00:24:26,070 ~-~-> 00:24:29,370 1795 -ideally 1% or less. Okay, and then I 1796 - 1797 -450 1798 -00:24:29,370 ~-~-> 00:24:31,020 1799 -know that probably sounds like wait, and 1800 - 1801 -451 1802 -00:24:31,020 ~-~-> 00:24:32,160 1803 -I can make a lot of money with that. 1804 - 1805 -452 1806 -00:24:32,700 ~-~-> 00:24:33,990 1807 -That's right. Because if you're just 1808 - 1809 -453 1810 -00:24:33,990 ~-~-> 00:24:35,340 1811 -starting out, you need to forget about 1812 - 1813 -454 1814 -00:24:35,340 ~-~-> 00:24:36,600 1815 -making a whole lot of money because 1816 - 1817 -455 1818 -00:24:36,600 ~-~-> 00:24:37,410 1819 -you're gonna have a whole lot of 1820 - 1821 -456 1822 -00:24:37,410 ~-~-> 00:24:39,990 1823 -learning to do. So assuming that you did 1824 - 1825 -457 1826 -00:24:39,990 ~-~-> 00:24:43,500 1827 -have a $10,000 account, okay, and you've 1828 - 1829 -458 1830 -00:24:43,530 ~-~-> 00:24:45,090 1831 -worked with smaller accounts, you've 1832 - 1833 -459 1834 -00:24:45,120 ~-~-> 00:24:47,940 1835 -proven to yourself that you could be 1836 - 1837 -460 1838 -00:24:48,090 ~-~-> 00:24:51,240 1839 -disciplined. You have a track record of 1840 - 1841 -461 1842 -00:24:51,240 ~-~-> 00:24:53,820 1843 -being consistent. You control your risk, 1844 - 1845 -462 1846 -00:24:54,240 ~-~-> 00:24:55,830 1847 -you limit your losses, you let your 1848 - 1849 -463 1850 -00:24:55,830 ~-~-> 00:24:58,440 1851 -profits run, and your target started 1852 - 1853 -464 1854 -00:24:58,440 ~-~-> 00:25:02,790 1855 -getting hit on more consistent basis you 1856 - 1857 -465 1858 -00:25:02,790 ~-~-> 00:25:06,750 1859 -have a risk of $100 per trade, which is 1860 - 1861 -466 1862 -00:25:06,750 ~-~-> 00:25:11,070 1863 -1% of $10,000. You take that $100 and 1864 - 1865 -467 1866 -00:25:11,070 ~-~-> 00:25:16,170 1867 -you divide that by the total pips. Okay 1868 - 1869 -468 1870 -00:25:16,200 ~-~-> 00:25:19,350 1871 -needed to justify your trade. Okay, and, 1872 - 1873 -469 1874 -00:25:19,770 ~-~-> 00:25:21,330 1875 -but the assumption that this is a daily 1876 - 1877 -470 1878 -00:25:21,330 ~-~-> 00:25:24,030 1879 -chart here, it could be very easily in 1880 - 1881 -471 1882 -00:25:24,030 ~-~-> 00:25:27,060 1883 -the realm of 100 pips or more, okay, 1884 - 1885 -472 1886 -00:25:27,060 ~-~-> 00:25:28,920 1887 -which would put you at very, very low 1888 - 1889 -473 1890 -00:25:30,240 ~-~-> 00:25:32,190 1891 -leverage for the trade, which really in 1892 - 1893 -474 1894 -00:25:32,190 ~-~-> 00:25:35,490 1895 -a way isn't that bad, but I know a lot 1896 - 1897 -475 1898 -00:25:35,490 ~-~-> 00:25:36,840 1899 -of you folks watching this really want 1900 - 1901 -476 1902 -00:25:36,840 ~-~-> 00:25:38,040 1903 -to have a little bit more bang for your 1904 - 1905 -477 1906 -00:25:38,040 ~-~-> 00:25:41,400 1907 -buck. So using the concepts we used in 1908 - 1909 -478 1910 -00:25:41,760 ~-~-> 00:25:44,190 1911 -earlier videos, if you move down to a 1912 - 1913 -479 1914 -00:25:44,190 ~-~-> 00:25:46,830 1915 -lower timeframe, you can reduce and 1916 - 1917 -480 1918 -00:25:46,860 ~-~-> 00:25:50,010 1919 -reduce your risk to less than 50 pips 1920 - 1921 -481 1922 -00:25:50,280 ~-~-> 00:25:54,960 1923 -anywhere between 3040 is about ideal, in 1924 - 1925 -482 1926 -00:25:54,960 ~-~-> 00:25:56,550 1927 -my opinion, because it allows the 1928 - 1929 -483 1930 -00:25:56,550 ~-~-> 00:25:57,870 1931 -developing trader to have a little bit 1932 - 1933 -484 1934 -00:25:57,870 ~-~-> 00:26:00,450 1935 -of a fudge factor where they They're not 1936 - 1937 -485 1938 -00:26:00,450 ~-~-> 00:26:03,090 1939 -expected to be so precise with their 1940 - 1941 -486 1942 -00:26:03,090 ~-~-> 00:26:04,650 1943 -stops, okay, and gives you a little bit 1944 - 1945 -487 1946 -00:26:04,650 ~-~-> 00:26:07,920 1947 -of flexibility because I know inherently 1948 - 1949 -488 1950 -00:26:07,920 ~-~-> 00:26:11,400 1951 -that traders will rush to entry. Or they 1952 - 1953 -489 1954 -00:26:11,400 ~-~-> 00:26:13,500 1955 -will look for confirmation in their eyes 1956 - 1957 -490 1958 -00:26:13,500 ~-~-> 00:26:15,540 1959 -quote unquote confirmation by letting 1960 - 1961 -491 1962 -00:26:15,540 ~-~-> 00:26:16,980 1963 -the trade start to move a little bit in 1964 - 1965 -492 1966 -00:26:16,980 ~-~-> 00:26:18,720 1967 -their favorite and then chase it but 1968 - 1969 -493 1970 -00:26:18,720 ~-~-> 00:26:20,550 1971 -very close to their entry price, but 1972 - 1973 -494 1974 -00:26:20,550 ~-~-> 00:26:23,340 1975 -still within the risk parameters as 1976 - 1977 -495 1978 -00:26:23,340 ~-~-> 00:26:25,680 1979 -permitted by their method or this 1980 - 1981 -496 1982 -00:26:25,800 ~-~-> 00:26:31,470 1983 -concept. So if you had that in mind, 1984 - 1985 -497 1986 -00:26:31,830 ~-~-> 00:26:36,480 1987 -okay, you could have basically $3 and 30 1988 - 1989 -498 1990 -00:26:36,480 ~-~-> 00:26:39,510 1991 -cents roughly, per PIP if you're trading 1992 - 1993 -499 1994 -00:26:39,780 ~-~-> 00:26:42,330 1995 -a $10,000 account with 1% risk using a 1996 - 1997 -500 1998 -00:26:42,330 ~-~-> 00:26:50,280 1999 -30. Pip stop, okay? The reason why the 2000 - 2001 -501 2002 -00:26:50,490 ~-~-> 00:26:52,860 2003 -industry standard is 2%. Sometimes you 2004 - 2005 -502 2006 -00:26:52,860 ~-~-> 00:26:56,490 2007 -hear in certain circles, you could risk 2008 - 2009 -503 2010 -00:26:56,520 ~-~-> 00:26:59,130 2011 -more than 2%. Okay, because that's what 2012 - 2013 -504 2014 -00:26:59,130 ~-~-> 00:27:00,330 2015 -the real traders And the real 2016 - 2017 -505 2018 -00:27:00,330 ~-~-> 00:27:02,580 2019 -professionals are doing, I can tell you, 2020 - 2021 -506 2022 -00:27:02,580 ~-~-> 00:27:04,110 2023 -the real professional traders aren't 2024 - 2025 -507 2026 -00:27:04,110 ~-~-> 00:27:06,150 2027 -doing that. Okay, they're not risking a 2028 - 2029 -508 2030 -00:27:06,150 ~-~-> 00:27:09,060 2031 -whole lot of their money. For disclosure 2032 - 2033 -509 2034 -00:27:09,060 ~-~-> 00:27:11,820 2035 -sake, I do risk as much as much as three 2036 - 2037 -510 2038 -00:27:11,820 ~-~-> 00:27:13,860 2039 -and a half percent. That means I'm 2040 - 2041 -511 2042 -00:27:13,860 ~-~-> 00:27:16,290 2043 -trading with the higher timeframe, 2044 - 2045 -512 2046 -00:27:16,560 ~-~-> 00:27:19,470 2047 -weekly, daily and four hour all in the 2048 - 2049 -513 2050 -00:27:19,470 ~-~-> 00:27:21,630 2051 -same direction. everything's lined up 2052 - 2053 -514 2054 -00:27:21,630 ~-~-> 00:27:25,170 2055 -with those three timeframes, and I have 2056 - 2057 -515 2058 -00:27:25,230 ~-~-> 00:27:28,320 2059 -a weekly bias that's in the same 2060 - 2061 -516 2062 -00:27:28,830 ~-~-> 00:27:32,430 2063 -direction. And that will allow me based 2064 - 2065 -517 2066 -00:27:32,430 ~-~-> 00:27:36,750 2067 -on my abilities and experience trading, 2068 - 2069 -518 2070 -00:27:37,080 ~-~-> 00:27:39,510 2071 -I will risk up to and it's not a whole 2072 - 2073 -519 2074 -00:27:39,510 ~-~-> 00:27:41,550 2075 -lot that it happens but up to three and 2076 - 2077 -520 2078 -00:27:41,550 ~-~-> 00:27:44,370 2079 -a half percent of my equity for one 2080 - 2081 -521 2082 -00:27:44,370 ~-~-> 00:27:47,580 2083 -trade. Typically, it'll be anywhere 2084 - 2085 -522 2086 -00:27:47,580 ~-~-> 00:27:49,860 2087 -between one and one and a half percent. 2088 - 2089 -523 2090 -00:27:50,550 ~-~-> 00:27:53,880 2091 -Because the timeframes aren't always 2092 - 2093 -524 2094 -00:27:53,880 ~-~-> 00:27:55,920 2095 -lined up like that you'll have a counter 2096 - 2097 -525 2098 -00:27:55,920 ~-~-> 00:27:57,750 2099 -trend move going against one of the 2100 - 2101 -526 2102 -00:27:57,750 ~-~-> 00:28:01,770 2103 -primary higher timeframe timezone not 2104 - 2105 -527 2106 -00:28:01,770 ~-~-> 00:28:04,680 2107 -time zones, the timeframe, the weekly, 2108 - 2109 -528 2110 -00:28:04,710 ~-~-> 00:28:08,040 2111 -daily and four hour. So if I'm trading 2112 - 2113 -529 2114 -00:28:08,040 ~-~-> 00:28:10,140 2115 -against that on a lower timeframe, 2116 - 2117 -530 2118 -00:28:10,470 ~-~-> 00:28:13,140 2119 -obviously one, one and a half percent is 2120 - 2121 -531 2122 -00:28:13,140 ~-~-> 00:28:18,000 2123 -a maximum. For sure. If I'm trading with 2124 - 2125 -532 2126 -00:28:18,000 ~-~-> 00:28:20,100 2127 -a daily and for our in the same 2128 - 2129 -533 2130 -00:28:20,100 ~-~-> 00:28:25,290 2131 -direction, I can be as much as 2% risk. 2132 - 2133 -534 2134 -00:28:26,940 ~-~-> 00:28:31,380 2135 -Now, how high is high? Okay?

And you know how to turn your 2152 - 2153 -539 2154 -00:28:41,550 ~-~-> 00:28:45,060 2155 -equity losing string around. Because 2156 - 2157 -540 2158 -00:28:45,060 ~-~-> 00:28:46,590 2159 -it's not just one trade that you lose on 2160 - 2161 -541 2162 -00:28:46,590 ~-~-> 00:28:47,940 2163 -guy sometimes you get a couple of them 2164 - 2165 -542 2166 -00:28:47,940 ~-~-> 00:28:50,730 2167 -in a row. And even the best traders out 2168 - 2169 -543 2170 -00:28:50,730 ~-~-> 00:28:53,340 2171 -there will suffer that and have suffered 2172 - 2173 -544 2174 -00:28:53,340 ~-~-> 00:28:54,780 2175 -that regardless of what they tell you. 2176 - 2177 -545 2178 -00:28:55,620 ~-~-> 00:28:58,710 2179 -So assuming that's the case for you, and 2180 - 2181 -546 2182 -00:28:58,710 ~-~-> 00:29:01,110 2183 -you're human like everyone else You have 2184 - 2185 -547 2186 -00:29:01,110 ~-~-> 00:29:02,790 2187 -to have an idea of how to control that. 2188 - 2189 -548 2190 -00:29:03,180 ~-~-> 00:29:06,060 2191 -And the best way to do it is reducing 2192 - 2193 -549 2194 -00:29:06,060 ~-~-> 00:29:07,770 2195 -your overall exposure as you take 2196 - 2197 -550 2198 -00:29:07,770 ~-~-> 00:29:10,440 2199 -losses. Okay? And I'll give an example. 2200 - 2201 -551 2202 -00:29:10,440 ~-~-> 00:29:11,850 2203 -Let's assume for a moment you settled in 2204 - 2205 -552 2206 -00:29:11,880 ~-~-> 00:29:14,850 2207 -on the idea of taking 2% portrayed.

Okay, now, if you'd risk 2% of 2216 - 2217 -555 2218 -00:29:20,190 ~-~-> 00:29:21,990 2219 -the next trade again, thinking that 2220 - 2221 -556 2222 -00:29:21,990 ~-~-> 00:29:23,340 2223 -well, if I make the same amount of money 2224 - 2225 -557 2226 -00:29:23,340 ~-~-> 00:29:25,350 2227 -I lost on my previous trade, I'll get 2228 - 2229 -558 2230 -00:29:25,350 ~-~-> 00:29:28,380 2231 -back to even that's where the cycle 2232 - 2233 -559 2234 -00:29:28,380 ~-~-> 00:29:32,820 2235 -begins. Okay. You want to get back to 2236 - 2237 -560 2238 -00:29:32,820 ~-~-> 00:29:35,880 2239 -that previous equity level that 2240 - 2241 -561 2242 -00:29:35,880 ~-~-> 00:29:37,740 2243 -milestone that marker, okay, that 2244 - 2245 -562 2246 -00:29:37,740 ~-~-> 00:29:41,190 2247 -comfort zone, internally as a trader, 2248 - 2249 -563 2250 -00:29:41,610 ~-~-> 00:29:44,910 2251 -and that's not a good game to play. 2252 - 2253 -564 2254 -00:29:45,180 ~-~-> 00:29:46,890 2255 -Okay.

Because that is 2600 - 2601 -651 2602 -00:33:16,080 ~-~-> 00:33:18,090 2603 -the wrong perspective going in. There's 2604 - 2605 -652 2606 -00:33:18,090 ~-~-> 00:33:19,620 2607 -nothing wrong with having goals of doing 2608 - 2609 -653 2610 -00:33:19,620 ~-~-> 00:33:22,380 2611 -that. But initially, you have to take 2612 - 2613 -654 2614 -00:33:22,380 ~-~-> 00:33:25,080 2615 -the bite first, okay, and chew the 2616 - 2617 -655 2618 -00:33:25,080 ~-~-> 00:33:27,030 2619 -elephant, one bite at a time.

And, at least during the move in 2644 - 2645 -662 2646 -00:33:45,660 ~-~-> 00:33:47,310 2647 -trading in your favor, you want to be 2648 - 2649 -663 2650 -00:33:47,310 ~-~-> 00:33:49,560 2651 -removing a little bit of the risk 2652 - 2653 -664 2654 -00:33:49,830 ~-~-> 00:33:51,210 2655 -methodically until you get to the point 2656 - 2657 -665 2658 -00:33:51,210 ~-~-> 00:33:53,490 2659 -where you have zero risk or, quote 2660 - 2661 -666 2662 -00:33:53,490 ~-~-> 00:33:55,770 2663 -unquote, no risk exposure.

Okay, and 2944 - 2945 -737 2946 -00:36:41,310 ~-~-> 00:36:42,900 2947 -if you're underwater just by you know, a 2948 - 2949 -738 2950 -00:36:42,900 ~-~-> 00:36:45,540 2951 -few pips So what, you know, if you're 2952 - 2953 -739 2954 -00:36:45,540 ~-~-> 00:36:47,670 2955 -risking 30 and you're down 19 and you 2956 - 2957 -740 2958 -00:36:47,670 ~-~-> 00:36:49,770 2959 -just see that it's really not moving. 2960 - 2961 -741 2962 -00:36:50,100 ~-~-> 00:36:53,130 2963 -And you go on until Friday, perhaps as 2964 - 2965 -742 2966 -00:36:53,130 ~-~-> 00:36:54,510 2967 -the worst scenario for me, I will 2968 - 2969 -743 2970 -00:36:54,510 ~-~-> 00:36:56,490 2971 -collapse it and just take whatever that 2972 - 2973 -744 2974 -00:36:56,490 ~-~-> 00:37:01,290 2975 -is, as a you know, some modest loss No, 2976 - 2977 -745 2978 -00:37:01,290 ~-~-> 00:37:02,970 2979 -you didn't get stopped out? No, you 2980 - 2981 -746 2982 -00:37:02,970 ~-~-> 00:37:04,410 2983 -didn't get any of your targets, but 2984 - 2985 -747 2986 -00:37:04,440 ~-~-> 00:37:06,480 2987 -you're getting rid of getting rid of the 2988 - 2989 -748 2990 -00:37:06,480 ~-~-> 00:37:09,810 2991 -dog or you getting rid of the slow 2992 - 2993 -749 2994 -00:37:09,810 ~-~-> 00:37:11,340 2995 -moving inventory and you want to get 2996 - 2997 -750 2998 -00:37:11,340 ~-~-> 00:37:14,850 2999 -another, hopefully more opportune setup 3000 - 3001 -751 3002 -00:37:15,420 ~-~-> 00:37:17,160 3003 -with your equity behind it. So that way 3004 - 3005 -752 3006 -00:37:17,160 ~-~-> 00:37:18,810 3007 -you can recoup that. And if you do that, 3008 - 3009 -753 3010 -00:37:18,900 ~-~-> 00:37:21,690 3011 -you systematically find that all those 3012 - 3013 -754 3014 -00:37:21,690 ~-~-> 00:37:24,510 3015 -little tiny scratches immediately get 3016 - 3017 -755 3018 -00:37:24,510 ~-~-> 00:37:27,030 3019 -smoothed out quickly with you move in my 3020 - 3021 -756 3022 -00:37:27,030 ~-~-> 00:37:31,560 3023 -equity into a better more sound setup. 3024 - 3025 -757 3026 -00:37:32,850 ~-~-> 00:37:35,070 3027 -So timestamps is something that you to 3028 - 3029 -758 3030 -00:37:35,070 ~-~-> 00:37:37,020 3031 -me, I think, is beneficial. It's a 3032 - 3033 -759 3034 -00:37:37,020 ~-~-> 00:37:39,300 3035 -little bit of an art to it. But I break 3036 - 3037 -760 3038 -00:37:39,300 ~-~-> 00:37:40,830 3039 -it down like this. If it's going to be a 3040 - 3041 -761 3042 -00:37:40,830 ~-~-> 00:37:42,810 3043 -trade it's based off with daily setup. I 3044 - 3045 -762 3046 -00:37:42,810 ~-~-> 00:37:45,390 3047 -give it about three days. And if I'm 3048 - 3049 -763 3050 -00:37:45,390 ~-~-> 00:37:48,090 3051 -trading off of a four hour, I'm really 3052 - 3053 -764 3054 -00:37:48,150 ~-~-> 00:37:51,660 3055 -giving it about one day, and one hour 3056 - 3057 -765 3058 -00:37:51,660 ~-~-> 00:37:55,110 3059 -chart is I'm giving it two sessions 3060 - 3061 -766 3062 -00:37:55,110 ~-~-> 00:37:57,480 3063 -tops, okay. Ideally either the London or 3064 - 3065 -767 3066 -00:37:57,810 ~-~-> 00:37:59,220 3067 -New York session if it hasn't moved by 3068 - 3069 -768 3070 -00:37:59,220 ~-~-> 00:38:01,740 3071 -then you know it on an hourly basis, I'm 3072 - 3073 -769 3074 -00:38:01,740 ~-~-> 00:38:04,230 3075 -really looking to reduce the risk and or 3076 - 3077 -770 3078 -00:38:04,440 ~-~-> 00:38:07,320 3079 -collapse it. And anything less than 3080 - 3081 -771 3082 -00:38:07,320 ~-~-> 00:38:09,210 3083 -that. I really don't have a timestamp 3084 - 3085 -772 3086 -00:38:09,210 ~-~-> 00:38:11,190 3087 -for on outside of the intraday 3088 - 3089 -773 3090 -00:38:11,190 ~-~-> 00:38:13,740 3091 -timeframes of London to London close 3092 - 3093 -774 3094 -00:38:13,860 ~-~-> 00:38:17,550 3095 -when open to London close rather. So 3096 - 3097 -775 3098 -00:38:17,580 ~-~-> 00:38:19,290 3099 -assuming obviously that we have our 3100 - 3101 -776 3102 -00:38:19,350 ~-~-> 00:38:21,060 3103 -scenario that unfolded here, 3104 - 3105 -777 3106 -00:38:21,450 ~-~-> 00:38:24,780 3107 -hypothetically, and we suggesting a we 3108 - 3109 -778 3110 -00:38:24,930 ~-~-> 00:38:27,750 3111 -bought long in this market, whatever 3112 - 3113 -779 3114 -00:38:27,750 ~-~-> 00:38:29,940 3115 -that market may be, we'll just say this 3116 - 3117 -780 3118 -00:38:29,940 ~-~-> 00:38:33,270 3119 -is the euro. And the market starts to 3120 - 3121 -781 3122 -00:38:33,270 ~-~-> 00:38:35,130 3123 -move in our favor. So we have some some 3124 - 3125 -782 3126 -00:38:35,130 ~-~-> 00:38:37,770 3127 -paper profits right now. Our stops are 3128 - 3129 -783 3130 -00:38:37,770 ~-~-> 00:38:40,500 3131 -still at initial 30% I'm sorry, 30 pips. 3132 - 3133 -784 3134 -00:38:41,760 ~-~-> 00:38:44,820 3135 -And we have not yet made our first 3136 - 3137 -785 3138 -00:38:46,110 ~-~-> 00:38:48,540 3139 -profit objective. So what do we do? 3140 - 3141 -786 3142 -00:38:48,780 ~-~-> 00:38:51,090 3143 -Well, you want to be systematically 3144 - 3145 -787 3146 -00:38:51,090 ~-~-> 00:38:53,460 3147 -reducing your risk. If you started with 3148 - 3149 -788 3150 -00:38:53,550 ~-~-> 00:38:56,040 3151 -a 30 PIP stop, move it down to only 20 3152 - 3153 -789 3154 -00:38:56,040 ~-~-> 00:38:58,350 3155 -pips, and as the market moves and takes 3156 - 3157 -790 3158 -00:38:58,350 ~-~-> 00:39:01,440 3159 -out your first target Take your stop 3160 - 3161 -791 3162 -00:39:01,440 ~-~-> 00:39:04,680 3163 -loss, move it to only 10% risk. Okay? 3164 - 3165 -792 3166 -00:39:04,920 ~-~-> 00:39:06,450 3167 -And as it moves, it starts approaching 3168 - 3169 -793 3170 -00:39:06,450 ~-~-> 00:39:09,030 3171 -your second target. That's when you go 3172 - 3173 -794 3174 -00:39:09,030 ~-~-> 00:39:13,170 3175 -to break even. Okay? You do not rush 3176 - 3177 -795 3178 -00:39:13,200 ~-~-> 00:39:15,390 3179 -your stop trailing. Okay, this is one of 3180 - 3181 -796 3182 -00:39:15,390 ~-~-> 00:39:17,460 3183 -the biggest mistakes traders make. 3184 - 3185 -797 3186 -00:39:17,970 ~-~-> 00:39:20,640 3187 -Because of the natural volatility in the 3188 - 3189 -798 3190 -00:39:20,640 ~-~-> 00:39:23,970 3191 -Forex market. It's so easy for just 3192 - 3193 -799 3194 -00:39:23,970 ~-~-> 00:39:27,960 3195 -common volatility. Nothing behind it new 3196 - 3197 -800 3198 -00:39:27,960 ~-~-> 00:39:30,420 3199 -market maker sneaking to get you. It's 3200 - 3201 -801 3202 -00:39:30,720 ~-~-> 00:39:33,030 3203 -normal volatility. Okay, illiquid 3204 - 3205 -802 3206 -00:39:33,030 ~-~-> 00:39:35,220 3207 -volatility. Okay, where markets come 3208 - 3209 -803 3210 -00:39:35,220 ~-~-> 00:39:38,040 3211 -down. Phil Phil's market inefficiencies 3212 - 3213 -804 3214 -00:39:38,040 ~-~-> 00:39:39,750 3215 -and they take the market down to a 3216 - 3217 -805 3218 -00:39:39,750 ~-~-> 00:39:42,480 3219 -specific level to gather up any orders 3220 - 3221 -806 3222 -00:39:42,480 ~-~-> 00:39:43,770 3223 -and then go the other way. Okay, we're 3224 - 3225 -807 3226 -00:39:43,770 ~-~-> 00:39:45,360 3227 -not talking about stop raters looking 3228 - 3229 -808 3230 -00:39:45,360 ~-~-> 00:39:47,760 3231 -for common little intraday retracements. 3232 - 3233 -809 3234 -00:39:47,820 ~-~-> 00:39:51,600 3235 -Okay. If you rapidly move your stop loss 3236 - 3237 -810 3238 -00:39:51,630 ~-~-> 00:39:56,070 3239 -up behind market pricing, you're asking 3240 - 3241 -811 3242 -00:39:56,070 ~-~-> 00:39:57,810 3243 -to get taken out of a trade before it 3244 - 3245 -812 3246 -00:39:57,810 ~-~-> 00:40:00,690 3247 -comes to fruition. Okay. Once you have 3248 - 3249 -813 3250 -00:40:00,690 ~-~-> 00:40:02,670 3251 -the setup, what you're doing is you're 3252 - 3253 -814 3254 -00:40:02,670 ~-~-> 00:40:05,370 3255 -anticipating the market to start to move 3256 - 3257 -815 3258 -00:40:05,580 ~-~-> 00:40:07,920 3259 -in your favor. But this is a gray area 3260 - 3261 -816 3262 -00:40:07,920 ~-~-> 00:40:10,380 3263 -because you don't know for sure it's 3264 - 3265 -817 3266 -00:40:10,380 ~-~-> 00:40:13,650 3267 -going to do that. Okay? Yes, the market 3268 - 3269 -818 3270 -00:40:13,680 ~-~-> 00:40:15,570 3271 -could potentially can continue to move 3272 - 3273 -819 3274 -00:40:15,570 ~-~-> 00:40:17,670 3275 -in your favor. Or it could turn around 3276 - 3277 -820 3278 -00:40:17,670 ~-~-> 00:40:20,220 3279 -and stop you out. Or could stay in this 3280 - 3281 -821 3282 -00:40:20,250 ~-~-> 00:40:23,340 3283 -small little consolidation area for days 3284 - 3285 -822 3286 -00:40:23,610 ~-~-> 00:40:25,680 3287 -and make new money for you but a small 3288 - 3289 -823 3290 -00:40:25,680 ~-~-> 00:40:27,840 3291 -profit, but you'll hold on to it 3292 - 3293 -824 3294 -00:40:27,840 ~-~-> 00:40:29,340 3295 -thinking it's going to go to the moon, I 3296 - 3297 -825 3298 -00:40:29,340 ~-~-> 00:40:31,170 3299 -know you because everybody's the same 3300 - 3301 -826 3302 -00:40:31,170 ~-~-> 00:40:32,880 3303 -way when they're developing. We all 3304 - 3305 -827 3306 -00:40:32,880 ~-~-> 00:40:34,440 3307 -think the markets are gonna go like a 3308 - 3309 -828 3310 -00:40:34,440 ~-~-> 00:40:37,890 3311 -rocket either up or crash down. Okay, to 3312 - 3313 -829 3314 -00:40:37,890 ~-~-> 00:40:39,660 3315 -the ground like a, you know, a meteor 3316 - 3317 -830 3318 -00:40:39,660 ~-~-> 00:40:41,880 3319 -just plummeting to the earth. It's, they 3320 - 3321 -831 3322 -00:40:41,880 ~-~-> 00:40:43,260 3323 -don't move in straight lines, guys. 3324 - 3325 -832 3326 -00:40:43,380 ~-~-> 00:40:45,120 3327 -Okay, so while we would anticipate, 3328 - 3329 -833 3330 -00:40:45,240 ~-~-> 00:40:48,000 3331 -okay, higher prices, and we expect that 3332 - 3333 -834 3334 -00:40:48,000 ~-~-> 00:40:50,490 3335 -hopefully, okay, hopefully that we see 3336 - 3337 -835 3338 -00:40:50,490 ~-~-> 00:40:52,440 3339 -that, again, keeping in mind that's a 3340 - 3341 -836 3342 -00:40:52,440 ~-~-> 00:40:55,650 3343 -gray area. We're expecting those price 3344 - 3345 -837 3346 -00:40:55,650 ~-~-> 00:40:57,690 3347 -levels be reached on the upper side, but 3348 - 3349 -838 3350 -00:40:57,690 ~-~-> 00:41:00,870 3351 -they're not promised. Okay? So inside of 3352 - 3353 -839 3354 -00:41:00,870 ~-~-> 00:41:03,570 3355 -that, that, that gray area of 3356 - 3357 -840 3358 -00:41:03,570 ~-~-> 00:41:07,020 3359 -anticipation, we have an expected 3360 - 3361 -841 3362 -00:41:07,110 ~-~-> 00:41:10,200 3363 -outcome in price action, but we can 3364 - 3365 -842 3366 -00:41:10,230 ~-~-> 00:41:13,560 3367 -effectively manage our stops within that 3368 - 3369 -843 3370 -00:41:13,560 ~-~-> 00:41:16,650 3371 -move.

If we hold more reach 3876 - 3877 -970 3878 -00:46:41,490 ~-~-> 00:46:43,290 3879 -for higher price objectives or lower 3880 - 3881 -971 3882 -00:46:43,290 ~-~-> 00:46:44,490 3883 -price objections. If we're short. 3884 - 3885 -972 3886 -00:46:45,300 ~-~-> 00:46:47,010 3887 -There's no guarantee it's getting there. 3888 - 3889 -973 3890 -00:46:47,610 ~-~-> 00:46:49,530 3891 -No guarantee and there's been so many 3892 - 3893 -974 3894 -00:46:49,530 ~-~-> 00:46:52,320 3895 -times where I've been so close to the 3896 - 3897 -975 3898 -00:46:52,320 ~-~-> 00:46:54,060 3899 -actual highs and lows of the particular 3900 - 3901 -976 3902 -00:46:54,060 ~-~-> 00:46:55,680 3903 -market was trading, okay, and I'm 3904 - 3905 -977 3906 -00:46:55,680 ~-~-> 00:46:57,870 3907 -talking weekly highs where the market 3908 - 3909 -978 3910 -00:46:57,870 ~-~-> 00:46:59,370 3911 -turned around and then went months the 3912 - 3913 -979 3914 -00:46:59,370 ~-~-> 00:47:02,430 3915 -other direction Okay, I have been so 3916 - 3917 -980 3918 -00:47:02,430 ~-~-> 00:47:05,010 3919 -close where I've just been a partial, I 3920 - 3921 -981 3922 -00:47:05,010 ~-~-> 00:47:07,200 3923 -mean a piece of a pip not even a full 3924 - 3925 -982 3926 -00:47:07,200 ~-~-> 00:47:11,520 3927 -Pip.

So how accurate 3944 - 3945 -987 3946 -00:47:21,420 ~-~-> 00:47:23,670 3947 -is it just because I said it was going 3948 - 3949 -988 3950 -00:47:23,670 ~-~-> 00:47:25,650 3951 -to go there I had an order to get out 3952 - 3953 -989 3954 -00:47:25,650 ~-~-> 00:47:27,390 3955 -and it only trades a half a pip to that 3956 - 3957 -990 3958 -00:47:27,390 ~-~-> 00:47:29,040 3959 -point.

And initially as a commodity 3980 - 3981 -996 3982 -00:47:41,400 ~-~-> 00:47:43,050 3983 -trader, I you know, I would make that 3984 - 3985 -997 3986 -00:47:43,050 ~-~-> 00:47:46,380 3987 -mistake and it would, it would get close 3988 - 3989 -998 3990 -00:47:46,380 ~-~-> 00:47:49,530 3991 -to my orders. And I'm saying this when I 3992 - 3993 -999 3994 -00:47:49,770 ~-~-> 00:47:50,910 3995 -started getting consistent not when I 3996 - 3997 -1000 3998 -00:47:50,910 ~-~-> 00:47:51,930 3999 -first started because I wasn't that 4000 - 4001 -1001 4002 -00:47:51,930 ~-~-> 00:47:53,760 4003 -accurate. I didn't know anything. I was 4004 - 4005 -1002 4006 -00:47:53,760 ~-~-> 00:47:54,930 4007 -just fine.
