I thought of everyone on the YouTube channel that has supported this channel and maybe has been longing for some inspiration, maybe 4 +|3 |00:00:53,040 ~-~-> 00:01:13,170 |some kind of a nudge, by grow ICT. So I came here with the expectation that I would give the next four weeks, or 20 trading days, just a snapshot real quick, 5 +|4 |00:01:14,400 ~-~-> 00:01:26,130 |kind of like train your eye to see the optimal trade entry. And it's many formations and subtle nuances. Now, it's not a signal service. So that way you 6 +|5 |00:01:26,130 ~-~-> 00:01:36,900 |guys didn't like to do the thumbs down button, which I love that the the content I'm going to be providing you here is just really to activate your reticular 7 +|6 |00:01:36,900 ~-~-> 00:01:49,440 |activating system, it means train your eye to see what it looks like, and how it tends to form. Okay, so for some of you that are very versed in my content in 8 +|7 |00:01:49,950 ~-~-> 00:02:05,190 |old stuff in the classic ICT library, the optimal trade entry is a really an old staple. Now, it's not important for me to go through the entire optimal trade 9 +|8 |00:02:05,190 ~-~-> 00:02:15,900 |entry, and all the levels and all that stuff, you'll see what they are obviously in the examples. But if you have not watched the optimal trade entry, or ot E, 10 +|9 |00:02:16,200 ~-~-> 00:02:26,730 |primer video, you can do a search on YouTube, and you'll see it pops up, watch that video and kind of like gives you a calling a foundation up how to set your 11 +|10 |00:02:26,730 ~-~-> 00:02:39,060 |fed my business. So if we are looking at the next 20 days, just know that these videos are not intended to be very long, I want to try to get right to the 12 +|11 |00:02:39,060 ~-~-> 00:02:47,160 |point. But this is the first one in this series. So I kind of like one, take a little bit of liberty to remind the individuals that are probably just new to 13 +|12 |00:02:47,160 ~-~-> 00:02:59,880 |me, or to hardline critics that just can't stand me. I love you too. The, again, the premise behind all this is again, not to say here's what, here's what the 14 +|13 |00:02:59,880 ~-~-> 00:03:09,870 |markets gonna do next. Okay, that's not what I'm doing here. Okay, what I'm showing you is how you go into your charts and annotate them. Look for the 15 +|14 |00:03:09,870 ~-~-> 00:03:19,380 |optimal trade entry, because this is how I trained myself to see it. Back in the 1990s. I worked just like every one of you. And I came home. And I had to look 16 +|15 |00:03:19,380 ~-~-> 00:03:31,110 |at charts and look at moves that I missed. So I taught myself to look for specific patterns and signatures and price action over a period of years. And 17 +|16 |00:03:31,140 ~-~-> 00:03:42,600 |because of that, and seeing it over and over and over again, it builds in a pseudo experience. In other words, I at the time was not able to see these 18 +|17 |00:03:42,630 ~-~-> 00:03:53,880 |formations form live. So I would go back and look at my charts and annotate them in capacity, as if I were really there watching it and annotating the chart as 19 +|18 |00:03:53,880 ~-~-> 00:04:04,440 |if it was something that watched and witnessed live. Now, I'm not going to annotate the charts to the degree that I personally would do it. But I'm going 20 +|19 |00:04:04,440 ~-~-> 00:04:17,730 |to provide you a kind like a baseline to work with. And you can dress up your own charts and annotations and draw a great deal of attention to other things 21 +|20 |00:04:17,730 ~-~-> 00:04:22,710 |that may be important to you. Okay, or your unique price action model. 22 +|21 |00:04:24,870 ~-~-> 00:04:35,550 |I'm not teaching bias. I'm not teaching how to find the right order blocks, okay, I'm not doing all that. It's just again, to train your eye to see a 23 +|22 |00:04:35,550 ~-~-> 00:04:43,920 |specific ground on it takes place in the marketplace. And again, some of you're going to say all this is something that everybody knows about. It's a Fibonacci 24 +|23 |00:04:43,920 ~-~-> 00:04:51,270 |retracement. ICT didn't invent it. And it's this and it's that okay, if that's your attitude, that's how you think that's your you're going into this video. 25 +|24 |00:04:51,570 ~-~-> 00:05:00,510 |I'm really gonna waste your time. And just know that if you're that person, I enjoy that where everyone else that wants to really learn how to do something I 26 +|25 |00:05:00,510 ~-~-> 00:05:13,110 |want you to see what it's like over and over and over again over a period of four weeks. Okay, so if anything is studied for a month, basically, it really 27 +|26 |00:05:13,110 ~-~-> 00:05:27,030 |starts to take root in number one, your memory, and your identification, okay? The faculties that each of us have to see something that is important to us, it 28 +|27 |00:05:27,030 ~-~-> 00:05:38,280 |has to be activated. Okay, and real short and sweet. The common example I always use is if you buy a car, and you've looked forward to buying this car, and once 29 +|28 |00:05:38,280 ~-~-> 00:05:46,500 |you buy it, you take it home. And the very next day you're driving, it might be the day you come home with it, you start noticing that a lot of other people 30 +|29 |00:05:46,500 ~-~-> 00:05:57,510 |seem to have that same car. And it's not that more people bought it because you did. But your reticular activating system has been keyed up, okay to filter that 31 +|30 |00:05:57,510 ~-~-> 00:06:09,000 |car, because it's meaningful to you. And so, by me showing you examples of this particular pattern, and the signatures that generally repeat with it, you're 32 +|31 |00:06:09,000 ~-~-> 00:06:19,410 |going to see how you can start doing this on your own. And then if you have the ability to watch it live, you'll see many times its formation, and then you'll 33 +|32 |00:06:19,410 ~-~-> 00:06:31,170 |grow your confidence to paper, trade it, then demonstrate it. And if you feel inclined to do so, if you shown six months of consistency, you want to dabble 34 +|33 |00:06:31,170 ~-~-> 00:06:39,090 |with a very, very small amount of money, live money, nothing big, nothing grandiose, this smallest amount of money you can open up an account with and 35 +|34 |00:06:39,090 ~-~-> 00:06:49,950 |then trade the smallest little lot sizes possible. And then again, just follow the same protocols and procedures that would otherwise lead to your trust. in 36 +|35 |00:06:49,950 ~-~-> 00:06:58,020 |finding and price action, you determine that on your own, I don't ever selling myself a good tree with live money, because there's a lot of responsibility in 37 +|36 |00:06:58,020 ~-~-> 00:07:06,570 |that. And legally, I can't tell you to do that. But I can talk about price action, and I can talk about the signatures that repeat themselves. And I only 38 +|37 |00:07:06,570 ~-~-> 00:07:15,390 |want to talk about the optimal trade entry. Okay, so please, don't try to reach out to me and say, Hey, can you talk about this? Can you do that, I'm only going 39 +|38 |00:07:15,390 ~-~-> 00:07:24,780 |to be doing just this. Okay. So again, every video, I'm going to try to aim at five minutes or less. But this one just has to be just a little bit long winded 40 +|39 |00:07:24,780 ~-~-> 00:07:33,030 |because I have to have a preamble to set the stage for what it is I'm doing so that way no one can say you said it was going to be this and it's not. Okay. So 41 +|40 |00:07:33,420 ~-~-> 00:07:42,810 |if you're serious about understanding the things that I'm making available to you on this YouTube channel, one of the hallmarks is the optimal trade entry. So 42 +|41 |00:07:42,810 ~-~-> 00:07:51,960 |again, watch the optimal trade entry primer video first, and then come back to this series. Okay, so, again, it'll be 20 videos in the series, and I'll try to 43 +|42 |00:07:52,230 ~-~-> 00:08:01,620 |create a playlist that way, you guys can find it very easily. And we got to go through it. But tonight, as the pilot episode, we're looking at the Australian 44 +|43 |00:08:01,620 ~-~-> 00:08:14,640 |dollar. Okay, so I'm using tradingview.com as the resource and platform. And the data I'm pulling up is the Australian dollar versus the US dollar forex.com. So 45 +|44 |00:08:14,640 ~-~-> 00:08:25,380 |whenever you put this symbol over here, it's going to give you a assortment of different data feeds. And I always use the forex.com. So that way, you guys can 46 +|45 |00:08:25,380 ~-~-> 00:08:36,390 |see the the price action the same way as I'm President presenting it here. Alright, so when we look at the optimal trade entry, and we look at its 47 +|46 |00:08:36,390 ~-~-> 00:08:48,300 |formation on a day by day daily basis. Now, again, I'm not trying to push or entice or convince 48 +|47 |00:08:48,360 ~-~-> 00:09:00,630 |that you should be day trading every single day. Okay, that's not what this is. I can, but I've been doing this for almost three decades, so many of you are 49 +|48 |00:09:00,630 ~-~-> 00:09:10,710 |very, very new. And there's nothing wrong with that. But you cannot speed this process up. It has to be done methodically has to be done in a way where it just 50 +|49 |00:09:10,890 ~-~-> 00:09:22,920 |allows for development, in not rushing can't rush it. Okay, so if you look at this particular currency pair, some of you that are familiar with my concepts 51 +|50 |00:09:22,950 ~-~-> 00:09:33,060 |right away know that there is the sensitivity off of this low here, and this low here is inside of these two consecutive down close candles, that's an order 52 +|51 |00:09:33,060 ~-~-> 00:09:43,080 |block. So it's going to be important for the discussion just simply because of this video, but every video after this, I'm only going to go right into the day 53 +|52 |00:09:43,740 ~-~-> 00:09:55,290 |and reference the previous day's range and show you how the optimal trade entry formed. So if you learn this, okay, if you grow in comfort and identifying this 54 +|53 |00:09:55,710 ~-~-> 00:10:04,770 |over a period of time, what period of time minimum four weeks do Study. Now that doesn't mean for which you graduate. Now your optimal trade entry Master, it 55 +|54 |00:10:04,770 ~-~-> 00:10:14,880 |just means that you're very familiar with it, and you have a little bit of a sample size of experience. You want to build on that, how long it will take for 56 +|55 |00:10:14,880 ~-~-> 00:10:25,230 |you to get, really, I guess, used to seeing the pattern, and anticipating when it's going to form that's going to be different for every single one of you. So 57 +|56 |00:10:25,230 ~-~-> 00:10:33,510 |it's not, here's a general rule of thumb. Everybody gets it by this time. No mentor, no teacher, no educator can say everyone's going to get it by this 58 +|57 |00:10:33,510 ~-~-> 00:10:46,500 |timeline. So be very flexible with your development, on your personal develop, not comparing yourself to someone else. Okay. So when we look at price action on 59 +|58 |00:10:46,500 ~-~-> 00:10:57,120 |a daily chart, the main thing we're looking for is the reactions from the previous day's range. Okay, so this is the day that we're going to study, 60 +|59 |00:10:57,240 ~-~-> 00:11:05,310 |because this is a new trading day now. But we're going to be looking at this particular day here. And already here, all the people here it is, it's hindsight 61 +|60 |00:11:05,310 ~-~-> 00:11:14,940 |again, okay. For those that are new, put the fact that it's hindsight aside for a moment, because every single thing that you study when you buy a book, 62 +|61 |00:11:16,230 ~-~-> 00:11:27,090 |newsflash, that's all hindsight to when you go to a seminar, or a webinar, and they show you previous examples. That's all hindsight to. So you'll learn by 63 +|62 |00:11:27,090 ~-~-> 00:11:37,170 |identifying a pattern that repeats, okay, so I'm teaching you a pattern of what it looks like, and how it generally forms. Okay, so if you do this, if you learn 64 +|63 |00:11:37,170 ~-~-> 00:11:46,050 |to do this very, very well, this could be your personal trading model. You never need to learn anything else, you never worry about indicators, you never worry 65 +|64 |00:11:46,050 ~-~-> 00:11:52,920 |about learning anything else in the ICT library. You don't even worry about mentorships, you don't worry about going over here and signing up with signal 66 +|65 |00:11:52,920 ~-~-> 00:12:05,640 |services, because you will be your own power plant of decisions and ideas and trade setups, they'll come organically from your own study, not relying on other 67 +|66 |00:12:05,640 ~-~-> 00:12:15,540 |people not relying on me, not people in chat rooms or, or groups, nothing like that. Okay, the big thing now is everyone's going to discord rooms, okay? Or 68 +|67 |00:12:15,810 ~-~-> 00:12:27,330 |telegram rooms, all these things and are all looking for someone that's good. So they can copycat off of. And you don't need that, you're absolutely in a 69 +|68 |00:12:27,330 ~-~-> 00:12:36,720 |position to learn how to do this for free, right here. And you don't need to have anybody else to convince you, or patch on the back to say, follow me, 70 +|69 |00:12:36,780 ~-~-> 00:12:43,620 |because I'm going to do it, and you're going to copy us because that makes you subservient to them. And that's not independent thinking. And to me, personally, 71 +|70 |00:12:43,620 ~-~-> 00:12:52,560 |I think it's weakness. And you don't want to be a weak minded decision maker in something like this, because you have the capacity to lose a great deal of money 72 +|71 |00:12:52,560 ~-~-> 00:13:01,920 |for trading with live funds, right. So the down close candles in here, that's our order block, we had a candle tree down into it, and then the previous day 73 +|72 |00:13:01,920 ~-~-> 00:13:11,790 |now again, kind of like just move this candle out of your focus. Don't think that anything about this candle right now we're only focusing on this candles 74 +|73 |00:13:11,790 ~-~-> 00:13:24,390 |range and the previous day, which is the sixth of May. Okay, so in the United States right now, it's 8:41pm, New York local time. And it's still the seventh 75 +|74 |00:13:24,390 ~-~-> 00:13:35,670 |for me. But it's a new financial day in the Forex sets overseeing this candle form. So when we look at the previous day's range, it's important to just simply 76 +|75 |00:13:35,670 ~-~-> 00:13:39,060 |identify the highs and the lows of it. 77 +|76 |00:13:41,220 ~-~-> 00:13:52,800 |Okay, so right away, we know this candles high. And if we looked at these two down close candles, and the fact that we traded down into it here, we had a 78 +|77 |00:13:52,800 ~-~-> 00:14:06,480 |candle trade, again, a little bit into your block, the order block is starting at the wick. So this candles high comes in at 6397 a four bit that's the price 79 +|78 |00:14:06,480 ~-~-> 00:14:18,120 |action dips into that candle range. And it does it again on the seventh. Okay, so it's not showing a willingness to go deeper. It doesn't want to dig in deeper 80 +|79 |00:14:18,120 ~-~-> 00:14:29,880 |and even take out the low over here. So we have to consider at least for this episode for this particular video, the likelihood of the market wanting to go 81 +|80 |00:14:29,880 ~-~-> 00:14:40,650 |higher. So what we want to see is does it have the ability on the very next day or the main seventh candle? Does it have the ability to trade above the previous 82 +|81 |00:14:40,650 ~-~-> 00:14:52,110 |day's range high? Why is that important? For those that have a serious interest in following along in keeping up with this series, you want to take notes, okay, 83 +|82 |00:14:52,110 ~-~-> 00:15:04,050 |so get yourself a pen and pad and just I guess make a study journal Just for optimal trade entry. Okay, so over the next 20 days, I'm going to give you 84 +|83 |00:15:04,230 ~-~-> 00:15:13,260 |simple little facets that go along with this pattern. And you'll see that it will flesh out over a period of time. And you'll start seeing things that you 85 +|84 |00:15:13,260 ~-~-> 00:15:23,040 |didn't really see before, even if you're familiar with the optimal trade entry. So we're gonna go down to a lower timeframe, and these levels here are going to 86 +|85 |00:15:23,040 ~-~-> 00:15:34,230 |be on the lower timeframe chart. But this study over the next 20 days is going to focus on intraday charts. And specifically a five minute chart. And right 87 +|86 |00:15:34,230 ~-~-> 00:15:42,750 |away some of your like, kind of like five minute charts, I can't do that. Trust me, it's beneficial to your learning. Alright, so Alright, so what we have here 88 +|87 |00:15:42,750 ~-~-> 00:15:52,950 |is a blank canvas in the form of candlesticks that may or may not mean anything to you. But I want to press upon you the importance of knowing the previous 89 +|88 |00:15:52,950 ~-~-> 00:16:04,200 |day's high and low. And it's very simple process, you can go into your charts, and today and put vertical delineations on the seventh, and the sixth. So the 90 +|89 |00:16:04,200 ~-~-> 00:16:17,970 |range low on the six is here in the range high is here. So when we know that on a daily chart, okay above previous day's highs and lows. Only say like this, 91 +|90 |00:16:18,000 ~-~-> 00:16:27,600 |above previous day's highs and below previous day's lows, there's a bank of orders that generally reside in the marketplace and throughout the day, 92 +|91 |00:16:28,170 ~-~-> 00:16:36,330 |depending upon how we get closer to the previous day's high or low on the new trading day in the new trading day. In this example, here is the seventh. So 93 +|92 |00:16:36,330 ~-~-> 00:16:53,100 |we're assuming all this price action here is what we're studying. When the market has a predisposed. bias, or trend or momentum, or you just think, okay, 94 +|93 |00:16:53,100 ~-~-> 00:17:00,900 |that it's going to go higher, you want to focus on the previous day's high, and then you want to see does it have the ability to stretch and reach up to the 95 +|94 |00:17:00,900 ~-~-> 00:17:11,790 |previous day's high? If it does, one of two things generally happens in assuming it's a bullish one, it goes through the previous day's high and dis explodes and 96 +|95 |00:17:11,790 ~-~-> 00:17:17,820 |never gives you a chance to trade. And that's just a missed opportunity. And there's nothing you could do about it, there's no reason to get upset about it. 97 +|96 |00:17:17,850 ~-~-> 00:17:26,280 |There's no reason to go online and complain to other people how you missed that trade, or you suck, or you're, you're never going to get this, never do that. 98 +|97 |00:17:26,310 ~-~-> 00:17:34,080 |Because you're actually giving yourself negative reinforcement. And your subconscious will remember that. And every chain you take after that trade will 99 +|98 |00:17:34,080 ~-~-> 00:17:44,640 |be plagued by that negative narrative that you've given yourself that you suck, you're never going to get this. So every time you actually muster up the courage 100 +|99 |00:17:44,820 ~-~-> 00:17:52,230 |to get an actually execute. You're going to be scared, you're going to be constantly revved up, you're going to be in a constant state of stress and 101 +|100 |00:17:52,230 ~-~-> 00:18:01,170 |anxiety, versus just following the method you've adopted and focusing on what price is doing. Is it still viable in terms of a trade? Or should you collapse 102 +|101 |00:18:01,170 ~-~-> 00:18:10,710 |it or maybe take some of the risk off or stick with it because now it's moving in your favor? When we look at previous day's highs and previous day's lows, we 103 +|102 |00:18:10,710 ~-~-> 00:18:21,210 |want to see the market go up above it. And then once it trades to the previous day's high if we're bullish, we want to see does it create an optimal trade 104 +|103 |00:18:21,210 ~-~-> 00:18:30,060 |entry? Because many times you're going to see this formation form exactly what I'm showing you here Okay, lots and lots of times do you see this formation form 105 +|104 |00:18:30,600 ~-~-> 00:18:37,290 |throughout the week and it may not be that particular currency or this currency in this example here Australian versus the Dollar, 106 +|105 |00:18:37,680 ~-~-> 00:18:51,060 |it may be in euro it may be in cable, it may be in the beast pound versus yen, it may be the New Zealand dollar, it may be in gold, it may be in a 107 +|106 |00:18:51,060 ~-~-> 00:19:02,610 |cryptocurrency, okay? It's not limited to just one currency stick to it and always expect it to happen like that. When you understand this pattern, you can 108 +|107 |00:19:02,910 ~-~-> 00:19:13,410 |mark out your previous day's highs and lows. And if there is a very discernible, clear, unambiguous directional bias that lends well to one particular currency 109 +|108 |00:19:13,410 ~-~-> 00:19:20,640 |or two over the other basket of currencies that you follow, then that means that you've very easily filtered out all the other currencies. So now you're going to 110 +|109 |00:19:20,640 ~-~-> 00:19:28,830 |focus on maybe one or two for that particular day and then wait to see if it trades to end through the previous day's high if it's bullish or below the 111 +|110 |00:19:28,830 ~-~-> 00:19:40,350 |previous day's low if you're bearish. Now with these ideas mentioned in general bullet point fashion, as I've just given you, let's flesh this idea out a little 112 +|111 |00:19:40,350 ~-~-> 00:19:48,870 |bit and put some lipstick on this pig here. Okay, so we got the vertical delineation here on the sixth and the seventh. So between those two vertical 113 +|112 |00:19:48,870 ~-~-> 00:19:58,890 |lines, we have the highest high and the lowest low as denoted on the chart here previous day's high, previous day's low. And here's the daily bullish order 114 +|113 |00:19:58,890 ~-~-> 00:20:08,100 |block, as outlined On the daily chart before we move down into lower timeframe. Alright, so the previous day's high on this particular candle here we have 6445, 115 +|114 |00:20:08,340 ~-~-> 00:20:21,570 |and three pipettes. And then the next candle is the very highest high at 6453. Okay, so that's our high. So think in terms of round numbers and big figures and 116 +|115 |00:20:21,570 ~-~-> 00:20:36,210 |mid figures. Okay, so essentially, this high being 53, even if that's the high, what is it really trading around 6450 mid figure. So it's the midpoint between 117 +|116 |00:20:36,480 ~-~-> 00:20:48,330 |64 00 and 65 00. So the mid figure levels are very significant, they're important. Couple that with the fact that this high and this high here are 118 +|117 |00:20:48,360 ~-~-> 00:21:01,530 |basically relatively the same high above this clear area that would otherwise be viewed as retail resistance. Traders think that this offered resistance here it 119 +|118 |00:21:01,530 ~-~-> 00:21:10,380 |offered resistance here. And as it starts to break down anyone going short, they would feel very comfortable putting a stop loss above these highs, because they 120 +|119 |00:21:10,380 ~-~-> 00:21:21,870 |feel with visual support behind the theory that this is resistance. So there's going to be a bank of orders that reside above this, because it's the previous 121 +|120 |00:21:21,870 ~-~-> 00:21:31,950 |day's high when we're looking at over here, and the fact that we have relative equal highs, so there's going to be a layer of liquidity above these highs and 122 +|121 |00:21:31,950 ~-~-> 00:21:44,280 |above the mid figure, okay, so 6450, which is this black line here, and then 10 pips above it, which is 6460 and 10 pips below is 6440. So we have a standard 123 +|122 |00:21:44,280 ~-~-> 00:21:53,460 |deviation of 10. pips. Now, I don't want to make it too complicated. But just understand that what I'm showing you here, this is about the general rule of 124 +|123 |00:21:53,460 ~-~-> 00:22:03,480 |thumb, you're going to get that seems really technical, just know that whenever we have a previous high, or previous low, how I did this here, I would do the 125 +|124 |00:22:03,480 ~-~-> 00:22:14,940 |same thing around this low here, because the low on this candle comes in at 6378. So we have an institutional level of 80. So if you're, again, if you're 126 +|125 |00:22:14,940 ~-~-> 00:22:29,070 |new here, 00 level, point 80 or 80, in this case here, 50, mid figure, and point 20 or 20, in instance, for Australian dollar. So you have mid figure levels 127 +|126 |00:22:29,070 ~-~-> 00:22:41,220 |that's very sensitive at level 20 and 00 levels. Now, why are these levels important? Why they significant is because a lot of large fund traders make 128 +|127 |00:22:41,220 ~-~-> 00:22:50,340 |their orders very easy for processing, and he just put them in there at that level. A lot of commerce gets done at those levels too. So when there's global 129 +|128 |00:22:50,340 ~-~-> 00:22:59,730 |commerce that comes into the marketplace, IBM needs to do business in Japan, so they have to turn dollars into yen, when they put orders in for that 130 +|129 |00:22:59,910 ~-~-> 00:23:09,990 |transaction. It's just easier for the bank to move that into those levels, and do the commerce there. 131 +|130 |00:23:10,410 ~-~-> 00:23:21,240 |So, again, if that's not important, it's nothing that needs to be known or followed or believed in. Okay, to see this work, all we're doing is studying a 132 +|131 |00:23:21,240 ~-~-> 00:23:31,680 |signature in price action, that will tend to repeat a lot. And this is one of the formations of optimal trade entry and why it forms here. Okay, so again, the 133 +|132 |00:23:31,680 ~-~-> 00:23:42,540 |daily chart, we're assuming the previous day's high should be traded to and if it does, it should be bullish, and look to see higher prices. If it goes below 134 +|133 |00:23:42,540 ~-~-> 00:23:52,950 |the previous day's low, that means that we can't be as bullish, but we can now study to see if we have a bearish optimal trade entry because the previous day's 135 +|134 |00:23:52,950 ~-~-> 00:24:00,480 |low has been violated. So there's always a study and it's not about hands is very important, write this down and underline it several times and highlight it 136 +|135 |00:24:00,480 ~-~-> 00:24:09,720 |and draw all kinds of, you know, annotations around that draw your attention to how important this is. It's not about being right or wrong. This study is to 137 +|136 |00:24:09,720 ~-~-> 00:24:20,760 |show you what it looks like every single day and how you're going to go into the chart. So when I show these examples, again, it's just to train your eye to see 138 +|137 |00:24:20,820 ~-~-> 00:24:31,500 |the thing I'm showing you over and over and over again. And you're gonna find that this is exactly what it tends to do in other markets as well. It's not just 139 +|138 |00:24:31,650 ~-~-> 00:24:41,220 |me form fitting it into this one because it looks pretty okay. So again, the idea is we're looking for the previous day's high on the sixth that be traded to 140 +|139 |00:24:41,220 ~-~-> 00:24:50,850 |it does here and then we consolidate and retrace a little bit and we hang around once it hits that 6450 level which that black line here. It does blow out the 141 +|140 |00:24:50,850 ~-~-> 00:24:59,190 |previous day's high not by much but it does. And then it gyrates down 10 pips or a little bit more than that and picks up more orders. What is it doing? It's 142 +|141 |00:24:59,190 ~-~-> 00:25:07,170 |gathering more orders. here and then there's a displacement here, price starts to create a run up above the previous day's high with a little bit more 143 +|142 |00:25:07,170 ~-~-> 00:25:18,780 |meaningful run. So the shallow run here gets overtaken here. And then price does what it returns back to the 6450 mid figure and consolidates between 6460 6450. 144 +|143 |00:25:18,990 ~-~-> 00:25:32,370 |And what's it doing? It's allowing all the orders that was above the previous day's high and around 6450. An order bank gets depleted because of the time it's 145 +|144 |00:25:32,370 ~-~-> 00:25:40,770 |sitting in here. Now when I say order bank, it's, it's basically a huge collection of orders that may or may not be in the marketplace around here. But 146 +|145 |00:25:40,770 ~-~-> 00:25:49,830 |as it sits in here, people will start to build a bias or a sentiment about what they think the Australian dollar is going to do. In terms of bullishness, or 147 +|146 |00:25:49,830 ~-~-> 00:26:02,670 |bearishness, these orders that are accumulated in here are going to build up over time. Price makes a run above the 6460 level and starts to just get into 148 +|147 |00:26:02,670 ~-~-> 00:26:14,460 |the 6470. But it's not important. We're looking for price to go to a specific time and specific price. So we're looking at time and price. That's what makes 149 +|148 |00:26:14,520 ~-~-> 00:26:23,250 |optimal trade entry or the ICT optimal trade entry pattern what it is, it's not just simply going in there and saying, okay, every time that price retraces it, 150 +|149 |00:26:23,250 ~-~-> 00:26:29,460 |because otherwise that's just Fibonacci trading, okay, or ratio trading, or harmonic trading? Yeah, I'm 151 +|150 |00:26:29,459 ~-~-> 00:26:38,429 |saying it, everyone's got a name for it. Okay. But what I'm showing you what makes this optimal, okay, is the fact that it's occurring at a key time of day. 152 +|151 |00:26:38,999 ~-~-> 00:26:47,969 |Now, I'm not kidding, I'm not teaching you ICT kill zones. Okay, I'm going to make it very, very simple. It's specific times a window, a window that begins in 153 +|152 |00:26:47,969 ~-~-> 00:26:57,209 |a window to ends, and then we're only focusing during the New York session. Okay, so it's not the New York kill zone. It's the new york session. So it 154 +|153 |00:26:57,209 ~-~-> 00:27:07,709 |allows a great deal of flexibility. And it allows you also to look for this pattern with specific envelopes and time where it begins and ends. If it doesn't 155 +|154 |00:27:07,709 ~-~-> 00:27:17,069 |occur, then you can't do anything with it. It may form later on, and you'll be like, Oh, well, I didn't see it, then I didn't take it in. So I'm mad. Don't be 156 +|155 |00:27:17,069 ~-~-> 00:27:30,239 |mad. You only want something that makes sense. And a time where you anticipate it occurring. This is discipline, this is focusing on a rule based premise. And 157 +|156 |00:27:30,269 ~-~-> 00:27:40,469 |following your price action model. This is the way professional traders do it. They don't get lacks in their rule rules and and say, Okay, well, it was good. 158 +|157 |00:27:40,469 ~-~-> 00:27:49,529 |Last 12 times I did it. But this time, it does feel lucky. And I'm just going to do things slightly different. They don't do that. Okay, generally, if you have a 159 +|158 |00:27:49,529 ~-~-> 00:27:59,519 |model or a trading plan, you want to stick to the rules. And that way, you're not going to be confused when things go awry. It's just simply a losing trade. 160 +|159 |00:27:59,819 ~-~-> 00:28:11,279 |And you're not going to be able to avoid every instance of that occurring. Everyone takes losses. I take all says, I have lost money, okay? You're going to 161 +|160 |00:28:11,279 ~-~-> 00:28:20,549 |lose money, you can't avoid it, it's absolutely going to happen. If you put live money in here, you're going to lose money. But if you learn how to do this, 162 +|161 |00:28:20,669 ~-~-> 00:28:31,019 |you're going to see how often this signature becomes very familiar in price action. And I'll leave that to you what that means on an individual basis. So 163 +|162 |00:28:31,049 ~-~-> 00:28:42,029 |price stays around and meanders up and down gyrates until we get to a specific time of the day, and this is going to be 8:30am to 11 o'clock in the morning, 164 +|163 |00:28:42,299 ~-~-> 00:28:55,649 |New York time, these are always new york times 830, New York time to 11 o'clock, New York time. Do not email me Why is this time this and not in New York kill 165 +|164 |00:28:55,649 ~-~-> 00:29:05,249 |zone times. I'm not teaching mentorship, I'm not teaching ICT kill zones. I'm teaching you a specific price action model with rule based ideas. And you work 166 +|165 |00:29:05,249 ~-~-> 00:29:14,249 |with just this. Okay? I'm not reinventing it because my stuff doesn't work anymore. Okay, that's not what I'm doing. I'm making a very specific window of 167 +|166 |00:29:14,249 ~-~-> 00:29:25,439 |time. And it's based on New York time. So if you want to see the time window, I have it set you can see right here, this is what I have in my time setting. So 168 +|167 |00:29:25,439 ~-~-> 00:29:36,629 |this is what you'd look for. And then your chart will look like mine is here. If you live a different timezone in a different country, then you need to figure 169 +|168 |00:29:36,629 ~-~-> 00:29:48,749 |out what that time is for you locally and where you live at. But this is the time that this pattern tends to form. Okay, now, the green shaded area in here 170 +|169 |00:29:48,779 ~-~-> 00:30:00,749 |is what everyone's familiar with in terms of my pattern and optimal trade entry. Optimal trade entry is the 62% retracement level to the 79% retracement level, 171 +|170 |00:30:01,139 ~-~-> 00:30:20,399 |and the mid point or 70.5 level you can see here. And these are the levels that are highlighted. Okay. So everything here is what I have on my fit. So these are 172 +|171 |00:30:20,399 ~-~-> 00:30:29,279 |the, that's the levels that you would have for your Fibonacci over here, okay, on trading view. So that way it's included, now they don't change, they're not 173 +|172 |00:30:29,309 ~-~-> 00:30:39,479 |flipping around and making it fit because I'm gonna have a winner every single day. That's not what I'm doing here. Okay. So again, all of this gyration is 174 +|173 |00:30:39,479 ~-~-> 00:30:40,949 |just simply working 175 +|174 |00:30:41,190 ~-~-> 00:30:49,830 |the Bank of orders that come and go around that mid figure level and above the previous day's high. Now, remember, earlier, I said one of two things are going 176 +|175 |00:30:49,830 ~-~-> 00:30:55,890 |to happen when you're bullish. And if it trades to the previous day's high one, it takes off, and it doesn't give you a chance to do anything and you missed 177 +|176 |00:30:55,890 ~-~-> 00:31:05,640 |that opportunity. Or it starts gyrate around the previous day's high. Okay, and you want to know what institutional price level you're working around the 178 +|177 |00:31:05,640 ~-~-> 00:31:16,260 |closest to it. Okay, so no worries when I say closest to the previous day's high. In this instance, it's 6450. And then you do an envelope of 10 pips above 179 +|178 |00:31:16,260 ~-~-> 00:31:28,320 |that, and 10 pips below it. And then you, you allow basically price to generate a trading range, until we get to this little sweet spot in time between 830 in 180 +|179 |00:31:28,320 ~-~-> 00:31:38,400 |the morning, why 830 for your notes, 830 there's usually a lot of news that comes out during the New York session. Okay, so the 30 new session, usually, 181 +|180 |00:31:38,400 ~-~-> 00:31:47,130 |it's like non farm payroll will come out some other kind of report. I don't off the top my head know what they are. And I don't really care to know what they 182 +|181 |00:31:47,130 ~-~-> 00:31:57,180 |are really, because I don't have any real specific affinity for one particular set of data, because they always coming in now in terms of what's relevant right 183 +|182 |00:31:57,180 ~-~-> 00:32:05,790 |now, what's the focus right now. Whereas at the time of this recording, employment numbers, or the lack of employment is the main focus right now, 184 +|183 |00:32:06,000 ~-~-> 00:32:19,050 |because everyone's at home, or without a job because of the illness that's been spreading. So when we get to 830, you want to see price, try to trade when 185 +|184 |00:32:19,050 ~-~-> 00:32:33,750 |you're bullish trade down into 62 to 79% retracement level on the fib. Now, that is your range determined from the low to the high once this previous day's highs 186 +|185 |00:32:33,750 ~-~-> 00:32:44,340 |broken. If this was a bearish scenario, we would just do the opposite of what's been seen here. Once the low of the previous day's low as broken, we would use a 187 +|186 |00:32:44,340 ~-~-> 00:32:53,880 |short term high to a short term low that would be below the previous day's low when you're bearish. But in this instance, obviously we're bullish. So we want 188 +|187 |00:32:53,880 ~-~-> 00:33:06,570 |to use a short term low to the short term high. So this range is the range prior to the formation of the New York session of 830. In the morning, New York time 189 +|188 |00:33:06,570 ~-~-> 00:33:18,450 |to 11 o'clock in the morning, New York time, why 11 o'clock, that's typically around when London clothes occurs. And usually it's also the time when the am 190 +|189 |00:33:18,450 ~-~-> 00:33:30,690 |session starts to wane. In the New York session and early lunch takers, you didn't leave the marketplace, that volume is no longer available in the through 191 +|190 |00:33:30,690 ~-~-> 00:33:39,600 |noon to one o'clock in the afternoon. That's generally the New York lunch and it can be quiet during those times. You only want to be looking for this pattern up 192 +|191 |00:33:39,600 ~-~-> 00:33:49,800 |to 11 o'clock in the morning. After 11 o'clock. It can form but it's something other than what I'm teaching here. And that's not important. The point is, is 193 +|192 |00:33:49,800 ~-~-> 00:33:58,140 |you want to see this pattern form during this time of day with the bias determined by what you determine when your daily chart Do you think the previous 194 +|193 |00:33:58,140 ~-~-> 00:34:04,020 |day's highs gonna be taken out or the previous day's low sticking out? And here's the thing, the beautiful, beautiful thing really is is many times you 195 +|194 |00:34:04,020 ~-~-> 00:34:13,020 |don't even need a bias. You just wait for the chart to show you what it's done. Does it take out the previous day's high or the previous day's low? At this time 196 +|195 |00:34:13,020 ~-~-> 00:34:26,070 |of day? What has it done while the here's Midnight in New York, and during the London session, it created a run higher. So there's been a lot of buying taking 197 +|196 |00:34:26,070 ~-~-> 00:34:34,470 |place to get above the previous day's high does it create an optimal trade entry so the low to the high that's what I had the fib drawn on, even though it's 198 +|197 |00:34:34,560 ~-~-> 00:34:47,580 |drugged out to here that way, you can see all the levels how they line up nicely with time. So we have two components here we have the element of time. And we 199 +|198 |00:34:47,580 ~-~-> 00:35:03,690 |have the element of price. So price is the level determined by the fib relative to its high and low of that range. Time is static This is always static, it does 200 +|199 |00:35:03,690 ~-~-> 00:35:13,710 |not change, it does not deviate, it's 830 in the morning, New York time to 11 o'clock, it does not change. So the easy way to do that is simply just get a 201 +|200 |00:35:14,970 ~-~-> 00:35:30,150 |horizontal, I'm sorry, vertical line and put it at these specific times. If you do that, 202 +|201 |00:35:40,710 ~-~-> 00:35:53,730 |you know, in between these two vertical lines, you don't need to have a guess as to when something's going to form, you know, when when price enters this area 203 +|202 |00:35:53,730 ~-~-> 00:36:02,340 |between the first vertical line up to the second vertical line, you're anticipating an optimal trade entry to form. So that's the expectation that 204 +|203 |00:36:02,340 ~-~-> 00:36:13,590 |you'll have by having your vertical lines on there. So you don't right now have a whole lot of business on this chart. But you can see clearly that this is what 205 +|204 |00:36:13,590 ~-~-> 00:36:24,870 |the time element would be to this pattern. Price is always going to be between 62% initiation level and the 75% tracing level, which is 79 here, and 62 is just 206 +|205 |00:36:24,930 ~-~-> 00:36:38,550 |underneath that 50 level. Okay, so 6450 is this black line here. So it cleans it up a little bit. Okay, as you can see 60 to 79 and 70.5, which is the sweet spot 207 +|206 |00:36:38,550 ~-~-> 00:36:51,720 |or optimal trade entry. Okay? When price drops down into this level, you can be a buyer on paper or demo. And I'm not going to save you on that, because I'm not 208 +|207 |00:36:51,720 ~-~-> 00:37:00,210 |licensed to do that. But we're studying price action. And you could be a buyer here with the expectation that we would see it expand. Now I'll get up to here 209 +|208 |00:37:00,210 ~-~-> 00:37:09,570 |and talk about these levels in a minute. But right now, this low is where your stop would have to be below that. Okay, so the lowest candle. What we're 210 +|209 |00:37:09,600 ~-~-> 00:37:23,580 |anchoring to fit on the low is 6434 and seven for that. So you can do a stop at 6430. Okay, so there's your stop 6430 darker colors in Houston see. So, your 211 +|210 |00:37:23,580 ~-~-> 00:37:38,190 |stop could be at 6430. So your stock could be at 6430. Your entry could be at the 62% retracement level is 6449 and seven bets. So basically we can just 212 +|211 |00:37:38,190 ~-~-> 00:37:49,530 |simply say, if retraces 6450 you can be a buyer. Okay, because you're gonna look for the institutional level and the lower you get down into the 700 retracement 213 +|212 |00:37:49,530 ~-~-> 00:37:58,170 |level, the less likely you're going to get your fill because we demand 79% retracement level here, you may or may not get that with the spread. Okay, so 214 +|213 |00:37:58,320 ~-~-> 00:38:07,680 |what I like to use is 60% trace level and then maybe factor in the spread there. But if you're using 62 generally it's a little bit more forgiving. Because you 215 +|214 |00:38:07,680 ~-~-> 00:38:17,580 |don't need to add always in my in my experience using 60% tracing level, you can absolutely get it because you're going to dip even further generally into the 70 216 +|215 |00:38:17,580 ~-~-> 00:38:27,930 |and a half. And sometimes it is sometimes to trade some level but that's our range. Price. And in this is our time window. So the fact that we're looking at 217 +|216 |00:38:28,980 ~-~-> 00:38:39,060 |this specific area, if we use a limit order at 62% retracement level, if it trades below that you're filled, your stock would be placed here. And then using 218 +|217 |00:38:39,060 ~-~-> 00:38:56,430 |the fib levels. Point 54.5 negative 0.5. Rather, this is an area where you take first profit if it allows you if it allows you 15 pips or more. Okay, so there's 219 +|218 |00:38:56,430 ~-~-> 00:39:08,760 |your rules, you want to take 15 pips at first scout exit at the negative 0.5 level, and then the negative one level, which would be one standard deviation of 220 +|219 |00:39:08,760 ~-~-> 00:39:18,600 |the range that you calculate for your fib. So know what you're drawing your load to your high here, that range here if it's duplicated, and basically projected 221 +|220 |00:39:18,630 ~-~-> 00:39:31,470 |higher, a measured move of that would be this level up here. Now since we have that, since it's suggesting here in the fib, it's 0.6513 and five pipettes we 222 +|221 |00:39:31,470 ~-~-> 00:39:41,670 |want the highest degree of probability for our levels for scaling and taking profits. This would be an area where we can take profits again. So first scaling 223 +|222 |00:39:41,670 ~-~-> 00:39:54,360 |would be here at negative 0.5. But the minimum expectation is 15 pips, so you have to be able to get 15 pips, you can't get 15 pips here, but you can get it 224 +|223 |00:39:54,420 ~-~-> 00:40:06,270 |here or more than this is where you would take first profit. Okay, here is just One level we read expect it. In this instance, here, we can see at 6450 or so 225 +|224 |00:40:06,600 ~-~-> 00:40:17,670 |getting out at 6493. That's 43 pips almost 43 pips of potential profit at first scaling. 226 +|225 |00:40:19,529 ~-~-> 00:40:31,109 |The next level up here would be 6513, and five, but it may not get to these levels. Again, Fibonacci is not the answer to everything in the marketplace. 227 +|226 |00:40:31,499 ~-~-> 00:40:42,809 |Even though this is giving you a general rule, principle and in theory, and it's going to get you very close to some really sweet setups do not demand that the 228 +|227 |00:40:42,809 ~-~-> 00:40:52,859 |price reaches to these levels for your targets. What I do, this is how I teach my students as well, if this is the fib level that we're looking for, okay, in 229 +|228 |00:40:52,859 ~-~-> 00:41:08,879 |other words, if your calculations suggest that this is what the range level for negative one would be, on the projection 6510 is the nearest 10 level, without 230 +|229 |00:41:08,879 ~-~-> 00:41:18,089 |getting up to that level, so what we're doing is we're rounding down to the next 10 level. Okay, so wherever this level would be, say it was 15, it would still 231 +|230 |00:41:18,089 ~-~-> 00:41:30,119 |be 6510. For me, so I'd be looking to take profit, or scaling out here. If this level was at 15, or more pips, this would be my first scaling from my entry down 232 +|231 |00:41:30,119 ~-~-> 00:41:48,059 |here at 6450. So 6458, was my limit on entry for general principles, and the stop would be 6430. So it's a 20 PIP stop. And, again, forget risk reward, we're 233 +|232 |00:41:48,059 ~-~-> 00:41:55,349 |not teaching that don't think it has to be three to one, it has to be five to one, you know, if it's one to one, it's still good. In my opinion, it's good. 234 +|233 |00:41:55,349 ~-~-> 00:42:01,709 |Because if you have a setup that repeats over and over and over again, very frequently, I understand and accept the fact I'm not going to be a winner on 235 +|234 |00:42:01,709 ~-~-> 00:42:12,119 |every single trade, I'm going to take losses. But if I have a system that doesn't require me to spend a lot of money when I'm losing, but I do have a high 236 +|235 |00:42:12,119 ~-~-> 00:42:21,809 |frequency of accuracy. And if you look at this, you'll determine if this does or doesn't have a lot of accuracy. But nonetheless, by looking at and studying it. 237 +|236 |00:42:22,589 ~-~-> 00:42:32,429 |With this logic behind it, it's not the fib that's creating it. The logic is we've traded above the previous day's high in a relatively bullish scenario. So 238 +|237 |00:42:32,849 ~-~-> 00:42:42,329 |we're lending well on this example for bias, but it doesn't require bias. If you blow out the previous day's high or below the previous day's low, you still look 239 +|238 |00:42:42,329 ~-~-> 00:42:49,979 |for these general theories to pan out. And again, it's not about right or wrong, you're not supposed to be taking live trades with this, I'm not enticing you to 240 +|239 |00:42:49,979 ~-~-> 00:42:59,429 |take trades. With this. I'm teaching you how to read the tape, how to read the price action, and forecast setups that will repeat if you know what you're 241 +|240 |00:42:59,429 ~-~-> 00:43:11,669 |looking for. So first profit here we could take obviously at 93 and eight bit that's that's 40 plus pips, so that definitely will meet the minimum criteria of 242 +|241 |00:43:11,669 ~-~-> 00:43:22,169 |15 pips before for scaling. And then you can get another scaling out at 6510, which is rounded down to from the fib level here, it can hit this fib level, or 243 +|242 |00:43:22,169 ~-~-> 00:43:32,339 |can go through it a little bit more. And that's fine. This is where you would take your next level of profit taking. If you can get first scaling, where it's 244 +|243 |00:43:32,339 ~-~-> 00:43:41,309 |15 pips or more, you want to start reducing your your risk on your stop till about midpoint of the range that you identified here. Because if it comes back 245 +|244 |00:43:41,309 ~-~-> 00:43:49,529 |down into that, it's generally not a good idea to hold on to the trade and let let it stop you out. You've taken something out partial, and then you reduce 246 +|245 |00:43:49,529 ~-~-> 00:43:57,509 |your risk. And then if it comes back down stops, yeah, you've taken something off the bone, you got a bite of flesh. And if it comes back down, you didn't get 247 +|246 |00:43:57,509 ~-~-> 00:44:06,779 |stopped out with a loss. That's in theory, what we're saying here, and if it gets second scaling, if you ever get a second scaling, you have to be above your 248 +|247 |00:44:06,779 ~-~-> 00:44:16,919 |entry point, at least two or three pips and just let it go. Okay, so that way you've gotten to pieces of meat off the bone. And now you're in a position where 249 +|248 |00:44:16,919 ~-~-> 00:44:24,659 |your stop should in theory protect you from taking a loss on the remaining balance. It does not mean you can't take a loss because you can as long as the 250 +|249 |00:44:24,659 ~-~-> 00:44:36,149 |trades open, you are inviting risk and the market can always get down or above your stop loss in that's this life. Okay, and a lot of people don't realize that 251 +|250 |00:44:36,359 ~-~-> 00:44:45,149 |they're listening to people online. Oh, my stops gonna do my job. Nope, not always exist. That's the best case scenario. And sometimes the best case 252 +|251 |00:44:45,149 ~-~-> 00:44:52,619 |scenario doesn't work out. So we can see how price eventually makes a run up into 6510. 253 +|252 |00:44:54,990 ~-~-> 00:45:06,240 |Right there gives us a nice little opportunity to scale off 10 pips. 6510 which is three and a half pips below where the fib projected to. But that does not 254 +|253 |00:45:06,240 ~-~-> 00:45:14,580 |mean collapse the trade. Okay, it doesn't mean get out of the trade leave a little bit on. So the again, the assumption is when you're paper trading this or 255 +|254 |00:45:14,580 ~-~-> 00:45:23,490 |if you're demonstrating it, you want to use a lot size that allows you to have multiple, in my case, I like to look for leverage that allows me to take three 256 +|255 |00:45:23,490 ~-~-> 00:45:34,980 |partials and in, give me something to let run, that means I can get four stages of scaling out of that position. Not all positions will allow me to do that. And 257 +|256 |00:45:34,980 ~-~-> 00:45:44,250 |here's the thing, if it doesn't let me do that, I don't take that trade. So I've given you something bonus in here, where it helps me determine with a decision 258 +|257 |00:45:44,250 ~-~-> 00:45:55,590 |based approach process and, and protocols that leads to me getting into a trade, there's lots of times I see moves coming. And I can see them for me, I can see 259 +|258 |00:45:55,590 ~-~-> 00:46:03,180 |exactly when they're going to turn exactly where they're likely to go. But I'm not in them, because they don't meet all the criteria that I demand of my 260 +|259 |00:46:03,180 ~-~-> 00:46:13,110 |setups. So there's nothing wrong with being very, very dependent on your rules, and only executing in that it's actually a good thing. It builds discipline, it 261 +|260 |00:46:13,110 ~-~-> 00:46:23,940 |builds maturity as a trader, and you will not be shaken by a lot of the things that a trader that doesn't have rule based ideas that sticks to them very rigid, 262 +|261 |00:46:24,720 ~-~-> 00:46:35,340 |will, they will generally be encountering a lot more stress, anxiety, because they're always guessing as to what they should be doing. versus this is what I'm 263 +|262 |00:46:35,340 ~-~-> 00:46:42,090 |doing. This is the time of day I'm doing and I'm looking forward to go long, I'm looking forward to go short. If it doesn't fit the criteria, you don't do 264 +|263 |00:46:42,150 ~-~-> 00:46:54,600 |anything. And you let it go. And you'll see over weeks of time doing that. You'll, in theory, protect yourself from taking from taking on more risk than 265 +|264 |00:46:54,600 ~-~-> 00:47:05,130 |you're supposed to, or should, and you're gonna be working towards a perception of price action that is going to be appreciated by you. And your bottom line in 266 +|265 |00:47:05,130 ~-~-> 00:47:13,260 |your results will show that, but again, you're going to take losses, you're going to get it wrong. This is not a magic recipe for always winning trading, 267 +|266 |00:47:13,380 ~-~-> 00:47:24,780 |okay, it's just something to start with. It's rule based, and you stick with it come hell or high water. You do this for weeks, and you see if it pans out and 268 +|267 |00:47:24,780 ~-~-> 00:47:37,110 |shows any kind of merit. And I promise you, if you do this, you're going to see it. So the market comes up to that 6510 level has a reaction retraces back down 269 +|268 |00:47:37,110 ~-~-> 00:47:46,350 |into some old order flow. And we want to keep something in and we want to keep a liter in water, see if we can catch a runner. And the Fed will hopefully give us 270 +|269 |00:47:46,350 ~-~-> 00:48:02,430 |another level of importance and the scrunch it down. Okay, we have 6552 and nine pipettes. Okay, so that's the next level, which would be this range, two times. 271 +|270 |00:48:02,430 ~-~-> 00:48:11,160 |That's one of it here. And then the second one here. So this is two standard deviations. This level in here. Generally, if for day trading, if you ever get 272 +|271 |00:48:11,160 ~-~-> 00:48:21,120 |an explosive move, I want to be out at this point here and I'm content with if it runs more, I don't care. I'm not a long term position trader. And it could 273 +|272 |00:48:21,120 ~-~-> 00:48:29,910 |continue for six months. And everybody can say, Yeah, but you missed this it ICT index, I'm not interested, I could care less. I want consistency. I want 274 +|273 |00:48:29,910 ~-~-> 00:48:39,960 |continuity. And I want the ability to be able to see these things repeat over and over and over again. trades, okay? For a neophyte are mysterious. They sneak 275 +|274 |00:48:39,960 ~-~-> 00:48:47,520 |up on them, they surprise them. They're like, well, we just happen. You ever noticed that when you get online, and you see people on Twitter, Instagram, 276 +|275 |00:48:48,840 ~-~-> 00:48:58,530 |whatever, okay. Any of these chat room things, these these trade rooms, they're all like surprised, whoa, what happened with the sewing so and now they're only 277 +|276 |00:48:58,530 ~-~-> 00:49:10,590 |interested in that pair or that Mark has moved. You are not going to be surprised. You're going to be anticipating, okay, you're gonna be anticipating. 278 +|277 |00:49:10,830 ~-~-> 00:49:19,650 |And by anticipating things occurring around a specific time of day around a rule based idea and a pattern that you're familiar with, and seeing over and over 279 +|278 |00:49:19,650 ~-~-> 00:49:28,860 |again. Now let's go back to that analogy about buying a car that you have a lot of affinity for. It's a sports car or it's a luxury car. You like this car, you 280 +|279 |00:49:28,860 ~-~-> 00:49:38,430 |can't imagine being anything else but the driver of that car and you buy it you bring it home. Remember, generally when you look around very soon after taking 281 +|280 |00:49:38,430 ~-~-> 00:49:42,450 |it home, you will start seeing that car more because you have 282 +|281 |00:49:43,740 ~-~-> 00:49:55,950 |activated your filter in your your attention to alette to let these cars get your attention. Okay, and that's what you're doing. You're teaching yourself to 283 +|282 |00:49:55,950 ~-~-> 00:50:06,690 |see this pattern over and over and over again in price action and By default, what happens is, when you start seeing it form live with everything on your 284 +|283 |00:50:06,690 ~-~-> 00:50:13,470 |chart annotating the time of day, what you're anticipating in terms of the direction it's supposed to expand up or down relative to the market being 285 +|284 |00:50:13,470 ~-~-> 00:50:23,820 |bullish or bearish relative to it running the previous day's high or low. You will see the pattern form live. And you'll know what it looks like. And you'll 286 +|285 |00:50:23,820 ~-~-> 00:50:34,800 |trust what you have practice in hindsight, weeks and months of it. And now you when you watch price action live, it'll be like, I see it, it's right there. And 287 +|286 |00:50:34,800 ~-~-> 00:50:47,640 |you won't be surprised, you won't be taken back like wow, where did that this come from? Price is algorithmic. It repeats every single day on elements of time 288 +|287 |00:50:47,940 ~-~-> 00:50:59,610 |and price. It does not work on magic Fibonacci, the Fibonacci is just a way for me to frame the context, the use this pattern, okay, I didn't reinvent 289 +|288 |00:50:59,670 ~-~-> 00:51:10,230 |Fibonacci, I'm not trying to claim claim the three quarter pullback of the Fibonacci is mine, the logic of using the fib with time and the element of 290 +|289 |00:51:10,230 ~-~-> 00:51:18,900 |market structure that's me, that's my that's why it's called optimal trade entry. ot is just an abbreviation of those three words. What makes it optimal is 291 +|290 |00:51:18,900 ~-~-> 00:51:28,680 |it's occurring at a time of day when the market will likely spool in spread out in one particular direction over the other. So it's more inclined to go higher 292 +|291 |00:51:28,710 ~-~-> 00:51:37,590 |or lower relative to the things that I'm showing you here. Alright, so anyway, so we have two opportunities here for scaling one, two, and this is the target 293 +|292 |00:51:37,590 ~-~-> 00:51:48,690 |where you would want to get out at the market trading right now. It's just about midpoint of that in here. Now you can use this midpoint, which I don't have a 294 +|293 |00:51:48,690 ~-~-> 00:52:01,830 |fib, if you want to add a fib for that level, it would be negative 1.0. And that would give you a line right here, I just don't care to have it. In this point 295 +|294 |00:52:02,340 ~-~-> 00:52:14,880 |where the market is running, you want to have your stop loss below some point of support or structure that would Yes, make your stop be part of a pool of sell 296 +|295 |00:52:14,880 ~-~-> 00:52:24,240 |side liquidity or where the Bank of sell stops would be. But you have already in theory, taking one or two portions of profit out. And your stock would just be 297 +|296 |00:52:24,390 ~-~-> 00:52:33,810 |above breakeven. So you want to look at where you are in terms of the current market structure. We had a run here, it retraced and then rallied up multiple 298 +|297 |00:52:33,810 ~-~-> 00:52:44,520 |terms lower, so we retrace multiple times. I like the idea of moving stop below here. Not below here. Okay, not below here. Why? Because this one, we already 299 +|298 |00:52:44,520 ~-~-> 00:52:53,610 |had a run below these lows here. And then we broke to new highs. We had a retracement to this low and retracement to this low, which is basically the 300 +|299 |00:52:53,610 ~-~-> 00:53:03,390 |relative equal lows. So it could still get below here, it could break down, hit that and still go higher, longer term. And I would miss out on that move, just 301 +|300 |00:53:03,390 ~-~-> 00:53:14,880 |trying to choke the trade with a really, really tight stop loss, which is not advisable. So we have this low that's much more appropriate for trailing stop 302 +|301 |00:53:14,880 ~-~-> 00:53:26,040 |loss and not jamming it up too tight and not giving the market room to breathe, especially because we're tracing this on a five minute chart. So the idea again, 303 +|302 |00:53:26,040 ~-~-> 00:53:34,680 |is we're looking for day trades. And not hold this thing for four weeks, not even for multiple days. But this is how you would manage your trade. So if all 304 +|303 |00:53:34,680 ~-~-> 00:53:46,770 |this occurred inside of the same trading day or same few hours, say it move say all this movement here occurred in a little bit less time. The same thing I'm 305 +|304 |00:53:46,770 ~-~-> 00:53:54,900 |showing you here in terms of when you would move your stop would be the same thing. This is we have a reaction and we have two higher reactions. You don't 306 +|305 |00:53:54,900 ~-~-> 00:54:04,500 |want to put your stop loss at the nearest area where stops would be everybody else has their stop loss below this low or here. Mine would be down here. And I 307 +|306 |00:54:04,500 ~-~-> 00:54:14,880 |already banked two positions or two scalings. Okay, so if it gets to 6550 and nine pit bets, you would collapse the entire trade and be done and be content 308 +|307 |00:54:14,880 ~-~-> 00:54:26,850 |with that. So you would be seeing basically getting around 100 pips movement from this particular trade with three partials or the final collapse here. Now 309 +|308 |00:54:26,880 ~-~-> 00:54:33,150 |if this level was higher up, okay, so in other words if you weren't getting this range here, 310 +|309 |00:54:34,590 ~-~-> 00:54:44,490 |and it allowed for 100 pips, but 100 pips occurs before the two standard deviations of the initial range to create your fib. So this is your range. This 311 +|310 |00:54:44,490 ~-~-> 00:54:54,450 |is one standard deviation over here. And then the other standard deviation would be here. And if this level is above 100, pips, okay, you know what's if this 312 +|311 |00:54:54,660 ~-~-> 00:55:09,480 |range here was like 6562, nine, okay, that would be 110 pips from your entry, you would take a partial at 100 pips flat, simply just take 100 pips bank 313 +|312 |00:55:09,480 ~-~-> 00:55:16,710 |something there as well. So there's your rules, it's very simple. those rules I've given you if you missed it and he weren't really taking notes, go back and 314 +|313 |00:55:16,710 ~-~-> 00:55:27,060 |watch the video again and listen very carefully, because I gave you very specific criteria about when to move a stop what entry price, you would look for 315 +|314 |00:55:27,120 ~-~-> 00:55:37,650 |where your stop loss would be, and where you take partials. And when you graduate that stop, and what you avoid doing when moving the stock not trying to 316 +|315 |00:55:37,650 ~-~-> 00:55:46,710 |choke the trade out by having a stop loss, you know, right under here, or right under here, or because this looks like it's support, you know, there you go put 317 +|316 |00:55:46,710 ~-~-> 00:55:55,860 |your stop loss there. There's a lot of people, it's in this period now they have sell stops right below here. They may have been lucky they went long here, maybe 318 +|317 |00:55:55,860 ~-~-> 00:56:04,380 |they went in here, or they bought here and is routed out because they don't use a stop loss. But now they want to put a stop loss in their thinking here. Okay, 319 +|318 |00:56:04,380 ~-~-> 00:56:14,430 |so I use market structure to help me manage a trade and market structure you can learn that it's on my YouTube channel as well. But this low here, I want to put 320 +|319 |00:56:14,430 ~-~-> 00:56:27,150 |my stop at this low and not something ultra super tight because just normal gyrations okay or quick, sudden retracement lower and still be viable for the 321 +|320 |00:56:27,150 ~-~-> 00:56:35,730 |trade going higher, would knock you out prematurely and you would miss the opportunity of allowing yourself taking out 100 pips or where the second 322 +|321 |00:56:35,730 ~-~-> 00:56:44,220 |standard deviation would be for your ultimate target. Alright. So hopefully you guys got something from this, I'll try to give you something every single day it 323 +|322 |00:56:44,220 ~-~-> 00:56:53,970 |will not be this in depth. Okay, so the rules have been applied and shared with you in this video. And I'll always refer back to this video, when there's any 324 +|323 |00:56:53,970 ~-~-> 00:57:04,770 |discussion about when stops removed, how you take partials, and what the general principle of this pattern is, okay? It'll be a five minute or less many times, 325 +|324 |00:57:04,770 ~-~-> 00:57:13,020 |it'll probably be less than four minutes because this is going to be me saying, okay, here's your chart. These are the levels and then here's what it looks 326 +|325 |00:57:13,020 ~-~-> 00:57:21,900 |like. It'll be just all the annotation on the chart. And it'll be me saying, take care, God bless and good luck in the trading. And with that, I'm gonna 327 +|326 |00:57:21,900 ~-~-> 00:57:25,200 |close this one and do that very thing. wish good luck and good trading. 4 4 5 -2 6 -00:00:30,600 ~-~-> 00:00:34,590 7 -if you'd like me, the present conditions around the world 8 - 9 -3 10 -00:00:34,860 ~-~-> 00:00:41,310 11 -right now because of the illness that's been plaguing 12 - 13 -4 14 -00:00:41,310 ~-~-> 00:00:46,110 15 -everyone. I thought of everyone on the YouTube channel that 16 - 17 -5 18 -00:00:46,260 ~-~-> 00:00:51,960 19 -has supported this channel and maybe has been longing for 20 - 21 -6 22 -00:00:51,960 ~-~-> 00:00:56,310 23 -some inspiration, maybe some kind of a nudge by goodwill 24 - 25 -7 26 -00:00:56,310 ~-~-> 00:01:03,360 27 -ICT. So I came here with the expectation that I would give 28 - 29 -8 30 -00:01:03,360 ~-~-> 00:01:12,450 31 -the next four weeks, or 20 trading days, just a snapshot 32 - 33 -9 34 -00:01:12,480 ~-~-> 00:01:16,470 35 -real quick, kind of like train your eye to see the optimal 36 - 37 -10 38 -00:01:16,470 ~-~-> 00:01:23,640 39 -trade entry, and its many formations and subtle nuances. Now 40 - 41 -11 42 -00:01:23,640 ~-~-> 00:01:26,910 43 -it's not a signal service. So that way you guys didn't like 44 - 45 -12 46 -00:01:26,910 ~-~-> 00:01:29,370 47 -to do the thumbs down button which I love that 48 - 49 -13 50 -00:01:30,720 ~-~-> 00:01:31,500 51 -the 52 - 53 -14 54 -00:01:32,730 ~-~-> 00:01:35,400 55 -the content I'm going to be providing you here is just 56 - 57 -15 58 -00:01:35,400 ~-~-> 00:01:37,740 59 -really to activate your reticular activating system. That 60 - 61 -16 62 -00:01:37,740 ~-~-> 00:01:42,090 63 -means train your eye to see what it looks like and how it 64 - 65 -17 66 -00:01:42,090 ~-~-> 00:01:47,550 67 -tends to form. Okay, so for some of you that are very versed 68 - 69 -18 70 -00:01:47,580 ~-~-> 00:01:54,150 71 -in my content and old stuff in the classic ICT library, the 72 - 73 -19 74 -00:01:54,150 ~-~-> 00:02:01,140 75 -optimal trade entry is a really an old staple now It's not 76 - 77 -20 78 -00:02:01,140 ~-~-> 00:02:05,160 79 -important for me to go through the entire optimal trade 80 - 81 -21 82 -00:02:05,160 ~-~-> 00:02:07,920 83 -entry, and all the levels and all that stuff, you'll see 84 - 85 -22 86 -00:02:07,920 ~-~-> 00:02:12,870 87 -what they are obviously in the examples. But if you have not 88 - 89 -23 90 -00:02:12,870 ~-~-> 00:02:17,460 91 -watched the optimal trade entry or OTP primer video, you can 92 - 93 -24 94 -00:02:17,460 ~-~-> 00:02:20,820 95 -do a search on YouTube and you'll see it pops up, watch that 96 - 97 -25 98 -00:02:20,820 ~-~-> 00:02:26,400 99 -video and kind of gives you a calling a foundation up, how 100 - 101 -26 102 -00:02:26,400 ~-~-> 00:02:31,860 103 -to set your foot on a business. So if we are looking at the 104 - 105 -27 106 -00:02:31,860 ~-~-> 00:02:36,960 107 -next 20 days, just know that these videos are not intended 108 - 109 -28 110 -00:02:36,960 ~-~-> 00:02:39,060 111 -to be very, very long. I want to try to get right to the 112 - 113 -29 114 -00:02:39,060 ~-~-> 00:02:41,940 115 -point but this is the first one in a series kind of like one 116 - 117 -30 118 -00:02:42,510 ~-~-> 00:02:45,750 119 -take a little bit of liberty to remind the individuals that 120 - 121 -31 122 -00:02:45,750 ~-~-> 00:02:49,830 123 -are probably just new to me, or the hardline critics that 124 - 125 -32 126 -00:02:49,830 ~-~-> 00:02:51,270 127 -just can't stand me. 128 - 129 -33 130 -00:02:52,169 ~-~-> 00:02:55,319 131 -I love you to the again, the 132 - 133 -34 134 -00:02:55,500 ~-~-> 00:02:59,280 135 -premise behind all this is again, not to say here's what 136 - 137 -35 138 -00:02:59,490 ~-~-> 00:03:01,860 139 -here's what tomorrow gonna do next. Okay, that's not what 140 - 141 -36 142 -00:03:01,860 ~-~-> 00:03:06,270 143 -I'm doing here. Okay? What I'm showing you is how you go 144 - 145 -37 146 -00:03:06,270 ~-~-> 00:03:10,170 147 -into your charts and annotate them. Look for the optimal 148 - 149 -38 150 -00:03:10,170 ~-~-> 00:03:13,200 151 -trade entry, because this is how I trained myself to see it. 152 - 153 -39 154 -00:03:13,470 ~-~-> 00:03:17,700 155 -Back in the 1990s. I worked just like every one of you. And 156 - 157 -40 158 -00:03:17,700 ~-~-> 00:03:20,730 159 -I came home. And I had to look at charts and look at moves 160 - 161 -41 162 -00:03:20,730 ~-~-> 00:03:26,130 163 -that I missed. So I taught myself to look for specific 164 - 165 -42 166 -00:03:26,130 ~-~-> 00:03:29,640 167 -patterns and signatures and price action over a period of 168 - 169 -43 170 -00:03:29,640 ~-~-> 00:03:33,960 171 -years. And because of that, and seeing it over and over and 172 - 173 -44 174 -00:03:33,960 ~-~-> 00:03:39,210 175 -over again, it builds in a pseudo experience. In other 176 - 177 -45 178 -00:03:39,210 ~-~-> 00:03:43,350 179 -words, I at the time was not able to see these formations 180 - 181 -46 182 -00:03:43,350 ~-~-> 00:03:47,400 183 -form live. So I would go back and look at my charts and 184 - 185 -47 186 -00:03:47,400 ~-~-> 00:03:51,930 187 -annotate them and capacity, as if I were really there 188 - 189 -48 190 -00:03:51,990 ~-~-> 00:03:54,720 191 -watching it and annotating the chart as if it was something 192 - 193 -49 194 -00:03:54,720 ~-~-> 00:04:00,000 195 -that watched and witnessed life. Now, I'm not going to ask 196 - 197 -50 198 -00:04:00,000 ~-~-> 00:04:03,870 199 -annotate the charts to degree that I personally would do it. 200 - 201 -51 202 -00:04:03,900 ~-~-> 00:04:08,220 203 -But I'm going to provide you a kind of a baseline to work 204 - 205 -52 206 -00:04:08,220 ~-~-> 00:04:11,880 207 -with. And you can dress up your own charts and annotations 208 - 209 -53 210 -00:04:11,880 ~-~-> 00:04:18,030 211 -and draw a great deal of attention to other things that may 212 - 213 -54 214 -00:04:18,030 ~-~-> 00:04:22,260 215 -be important to you. Okay, or your unique price action 216 - 217 -55 218 -00:04:22,260 ~-~-> 00:04:29,550 219 -model. I'm not teaching bias. I'm not teaching how to find 220 - 221 -56 222 -00:04:29,550 ~-~-> 00:04:32,730 223 -the right order blocks, okay, I'm not doing all that. It's 224 - 225 -57 226 -00:04:32,730 ~-~-> 00:04:36,690 227 -just again, to train your eye to see a specific phenomenon. 228 - 229 -58 230 -00:04:36,690 ~-~-> 00:04:39,270 231 -It takes place in the marketplace. And again, some of you're 232 - 233 -59 234 -00:04:39,270 ~-~-> 00:04:42,660 235 -gonna say, Oh, this is something that everybody knows about. 236 - 237 -60 238 -00:04:42,990 ~-~-> 00:04:47,160 239 -It's a Fibonacci retracement. ICT didn't invent it. And it's 240 - 241 -61 242 -00:04:47,160 ~-~-> 00:04:49,410 243 -this and it's that, okay, if that's your attitude, that's 244 - 245 -62 246 -00:04:49,410 ~-~-> 00:04:51,810 247 -how you think of it. So you're going into this video, I'm 248 - 249 -63 250 -00:04:51,810 ~-~-> 00:04:54,630 251 -really gonna waste your time. And just know that if you're 252 - 253 -64 254 -00:04:54,630 ~-~-> 00:04:58,530 255 -that person, I enjoy that. For everyone else that wants to 256 - 257 -65 258 -00:04:58,530 ~-~-> 00:05:02,190 259 -really learn how to do something. I want you to see what 260 - 261 -66 262 -00:05:02,190 ~-~-> 00:05:05,220 263 -it's like over and over and over again over a period of four 264 - 265 -67 266 -00:05:05,220 ~-~-> 00:05:11,340 267 -weeks. Okay? So, if anything is studied for a month, 268 - 269 -68 270 -00:05:11,340 ~-~-> 00:05:15,780 271 -basically, it really starts to take root in number one, your 272 - 273 -69 274 -00:05:15,810 ~-~-> 00:05:21,480 275 -memory and your identification, okay? The faculties that 276 - 277 -70 278 -00:05:21,480 ~-~-> 00:05:27,030 279 -each of us have to see something that is important to us. It 280 - 281 -71 282 -00:05:27,030 ~-~-> 00:05:31,290 283 -has to be activated. Okay, and real short and sweet. The 284 - 285 -72 286 -00:05:31,320 ~-~-> 00:05:36,180 287 -common example I always use is if you buy a car, and you've 288 - 289 -73 290 -00:05:36,210 ~-~-> 00:05:38,880 291 -looked forward to buying this car, once you buy it, you take 292 - 293 -74 294 -00:05:38,880 ~-~-> 00:05:42,210 295 -it home, and the very next day you're driving it, it might 296 - 297 -75 298 -00:05:42,210 ~-~-> 00:05:45,810 299 -be the day you come home with it, you start noticing that a 300 - 301 -76 302 -00:05:45,810 ~-~-> 00:05:48,750 303 -lot of other people seem to have that same car. And it's not 304 - 305 -77 306 -00:05:48,750 ~-~-> 00:05:51,900 307 -that more people bought it because you did. But your 308 - 309 -78 310 -00:05:51,900 ~-~-> 00:05:55,950 311 -reticular activating system has been keyed up, okay to 312 - 313 -79 314 -00:05:55,950 ~-~-> 00:06:01,020 315 -filter that car because it's meaningful to you. Let's So, by 316 - 317 -80 318 -00:06:01,020 ~-~-> 00:06:05,400 319 -me showing you examples of this particular pattern, and the 320 - 321 -81 322 -00:06:05,400 ~-~-> 00:06:09,210 323 -signatures that generally repeat with it, you're going to 324 - 325 -82 326 -00:06:09,210 ~-~-> 00:06:12,660 327 -see how you can start doing this on your own. And then if 328 - 329 -83 330 -00:06:12,660 ~-~-> 00:06:17,490 331 -you have the ability to watch it live, you'll see many times 332 - 333 -84 334 -00:06:17,520 ~-~-> 00:06:20,850 335 -its formation, and then you'll grow in your confidence to 336 - 337 -85 338 -00:06:21,090 ~-~-> 00:06:26,400 339 -paper, trade it, then demo trade it and if you feel inclined 340 - 341 -86 342 -00:06:26,400 ~-~-> 00:06:30,780 343 -to do so, if you shown six months of consistency, you want 344 - 345 -87 346 -00:06:30,780 ~-~-> 00:06:34,020 347 -to dabble with a very, very small amount of money, live 348 - 349 -88 350 -00:06:34,020 ~-~-> 00:06:37,770 351 -money, nothing big, nothing grandiose. This smallest amount 352 - 353 -89 354 -00:06:37,770 ~-~-> 00:06:39,510 355 -of money you can open up an account with and then trade the 356 - 357 -90 358 -00:06:39,510 ~-~-> 00:06:44,190 359 -smallest little lot sizes possible. And then again, just 360 - 361 -91 362 -00:06:44,190 ~-~-> 00:06:47,250 363 -follow the same protocols and procedures that would 364 - 365 -92 366 -00:06:47,250 ~-~-> 00:06:51,150 367 -otherwise lead to your trust. in finding in price action, 368 - 369 -93 370 -00:06:51,360 ~-~-> 00:06:53,910 371 -you determine on your own I don't ever tell him I say okay, 372 - 373 -94 374 -00:06:53,910 ~-~-> 00:06:57,120 375 -go trade with live money, because there's a lot of 376 - 377 -95 378 -00:06:57,150 ~-~-> 00:07:00,000 379 -responsibility in that. And legally, I can't tell you to do 380 - 381 -96 382 -00:07:00,750 ~-~-> 00:07:04,380 383 -But I can talk about price action, and I can talk about the 384 - 385 -97 386 -00:07:04,380 ~-~-> 00:07:07,020 387 -signatures that repeat themselves. And I only want to talk 388 - 389 -98 390 -00:07:07,020 ~-~-> 00:07:11,880 391 -about the optimal trade entry. Okay? So please don't try to 392 - 393 -99 394 -00:07:11,880 ~-~-> 00:07:14,130 395 -reach out to me and say, Hey, can you talk about this? Can 396 - 397 -100 398 -00:07:14,130 ~-~-> 00:07:17,940 399 -you do that? I'm only going to be doing just this. Okay? So 400 - 401 -101 402 -00:07:18,030 ~-~-> 00:07:22,050 403 -again, every video, I'm going to try to aim at five minutes 404 - 405 -102 406 -00:07:22,080 ~-~-> 00:07:24,570 407 -or less, but this one just has to be it's a little bit long 408 - 409 -103 410 -00:07:24,570 ~-~-> 00:07:27,240 411 -winded because I have to have a preamble to set the stage 412 - 413 -104 414 -00:07:27,240 ~-~-> 00:07:30,360 415 -for what it is I'm doing so that way, no one can say you 416 - 417 -105 418 -00:07:30,360 ~-~-> 00:07:33,630 419 -said it was going to be this and it's not. Okay. So, if 420 - 421 -106 422 -00:07:33,630 ~-~-> 00:07:36,120 423 -you're serious about understanding the things that I'm 424 - 425 -107 426 -00:07:36,960 ~-~-> 00:07:40,410 427 -making available to you on this YouTube channel, one of the 428 - 429 -108 430 -00:07:40,440 ~-~-> 00:07:43,410 431 -hallmarks is the optimal trade entry. So again, watch the 432 - 433 -109 434 -00:07:43,440 ~-~-> 00:07:46,020 435 -optimal trade entry primer video first, 436 - 437 -110 438 -00:07:46,140 ~-~-> 00:07:49,410 439 -and then come back to this series. Okay, so, again, it'll be 440 - 441 -111 442 -00:07:49,620 ~-~-> 00:07:53,460 443 -20 videos in the series, and I'll try to create a playlist 444 - 445 -112 446 -00:07:53,460 ~-~-> 00:07:55,770 447 -that way you guys can find it very easily, and we'll go 448 - 449 -113 450 -00:07:55,770 ~-~-> 00:08:00,720 451 -through it but tonight as the pilot episode We're looking at 452 - 453 -114 454 -00:08:00,720 ~-~-> 00:08:04,620 455 -the Australian dollar. Okay, so I'm using trading view.com 456 - 457 -115 458 -00:08:04,650 ~-~-> 00:08:09,750 459 -as the resource in platform. And the data I'm pulling up is 460 - 461 -116 462 -00:08:09,840 ~-~-> 00:08:14,610 463 -the Australian dollar versus the US dollar forex.com. So 464 - 465 -117 466 -00:08:14,610 ~-~-> 00:08:17,460 467 -whenever you put this symbol over here, it's going to give 468 - 469 -118 470 -00:08:17,460 ~-~-> 00:08:23,550 471 -you a sort of different data feeds. And I always use the 472 - 473 -119 474 -00:08:23,550 ~-~-> 00:08:27,060 475 -Forex calm so that way you guys can see the the price action 476 - 477 -120 478 -00:08:27,060 ~-~-> 00:08:31,080 479 -the same way as I'm President presenting it here. Alright, 480 - 481 -121 482 -00:08:31,080 ~-~-> 00:08:36,060 483 -so when we look at the optimal trade entry, and we look at 484 - 485 -122 486 -00:08:36,060 ~-~-> 00:08:40,560 487 -its formation on a day by day daily basis. Now, again, I'm 488 - 489 -123 490 -00:08:40,560 ~-~-> 00:08:49,170 491 -not trying to push or entice or convince that you should be 492 - 493 -124 494 -00:08:49,170 ~-~-> 00:08:52,620 495 -day trading every single day. Okay, that's not what this is. 496 - 497 -125 498 -00:08:53,580 ~-~-> 00:08:58,620 499 -I can, but I've been doing this for almost three decades. So 500 - 501 -126 502 -00:08:59,250 ~-~-> 00:09:03,210 503 -many of you are very, very new. And there's nothing wrong 504 - 505 -127 506 -00:09:03,210 ~-~-> 00:09:06,570 507 -with that. But you cannot speed this process up. It has to 508 - 509 -128 510 -00:09:06,570 ~-~-> 00:09:10,680 511 -be done methodically has to be done in a way where it just 512 - 513 -129 514 -00:09:10,920 ~-~-> 00:09:14,790 515 -allows for development and not rush, you can't rush it. 516 - 517 -130 518 -00:09:15,000 ~-~-> 00:09:20,970 519 -Okay, so if you look at this particular currency pair, some 520 - 521 -131 522 -00:09:20,970 ~-~-> 00:09:23,880 523 -of you that are familiar with my concepts right away know 524 - 525 -132 526 -00:09:24,210 ~-~-> 00:09:28,020 527 -that there is the sensitivity off of this low here, and this 528 - 529 -133 530 -00:09:28,020 ~-~-> 00:09:31,740 531 -low here is inside of these two consecutive down close 532 - 533 -134 534 -00:09:31,740 ~-~-> 00:09:35,100 535 -candles, that's your order block. So it's going to be 536 - 537 -135 538 -00:09:35,100 ~-~-> 00:09:38,880 539 -important for the discussion just simply because of this 540 - 541 -136 542 -00:09:38,880 ~-~-> 00:09:41,910 543 -video, but every video after this, I'm only going to go 544 - 545 -137 546 -00:09:41,910 ~-~-> 00:09:45,930 547 -right into the day and reference the previous day's range 548 - 549 -138 550 -00:09:46,200 ~-~-> 00:09:49,560 551 -and show you how the optimal trade entry form. So if you 552 - 553 -139 554 -00:09:49,560 ~-~-> 00:09:55,290 555 -learn this, okay if you grow in comfort and identifying this 556 - 557 -140 558 -00:09:55,680 ~-~-> 00:09:59,310 559 -over a period of time, what period of time minimum four 560 - 561 -141 562 -00:09:59,310 ~-~-> 00:10:02,070 563 -weeks daily Study. Now that doesn't mean for which you 564 - 565 -142 566 -00:10:02,070 ~-~-> 00:10:05,220 567 -graduate. Now your optimal trade entry Master, it just means 568 - 569 -143 570 -00:10:05,220 ~-~-> 00:10:07,800 571 -that you're very familiar with it. And you have a little bit 572 - 573 -144 574 -00:10:07,800 ~-~-> 00:10:13,110 575 -of a sample size of experience. You want to build on that, 576 - 577 -145 578 -00:10:13,680 ~-~-> 00:10:19,410 579 -how long it will take for you to get, really, I guess, used 580 - 581 -146 582 -00:10:19,410 ~-~-> 00:10:21,750 583 -to seeing the pattern and anticipating when it's going to 584 - 585 -147 586 -00:10:21,750 ~-~-> 00:10:24,480 587 -form that's going to be different for every single one of 588 - 589 -148 590 -00:10:24,480 ~-~-> 00:10:27,570 591 -you. So it's not here's a general rule of thumb. Everybody 592 - 593 -149 594 -00:10:27,570 ~-~-> 00:10:31,620 595 -gets it by this time. No mentor, no teacher, no educator can 596 - 597 -150 598 -00:10:31,620 ~-~-> 00:10:35,670 599 -say everyone's going to get it by this timeline. So be very 600 - 601 -151 602 -00:10:35,670 ~-~-> 00:10:39,540 603 -flexible with your development, on your personal 604 - 605 -152 606 -00:10:39,540 ~-~-> 00:10:42,060 607 -development, not comparing yourself to someone else. Okay, 608 - 609 -153 610 -00:10:42,060 ~-~-> 00:10:47,790 611 -so when we look at price action on a daily chart, the main 612 - 613 -154 614 -00:10:47,790 ~-~-> 00:10:52,380 615 -thing we're looking for is the reactions from the previous 616 - 617 -155 618 -00:10:52,380 ~-~-> 00:10:56,550 619 -day's range. Okay, so this is the day that we're going to 620 - 621 -156 622 -00:10:56,550 ~-~-> 00:11:00,000 623 -study because this is a new trading day now, but we're going 624 - 625 -157 626 -00:11:00,000 ~-~-> 00:11:03,480 627 -be looking at this particular day here. And already here, 628 - 629 -158 630 -00:11:03,780 ~-~-> 00:11:07,560 631 -all the people here it is it's hindsight again, okay? For 632 - 633 -159 634 -00:11:07,560 ~-~-> 00:11:10,740 635 -those that are new, put the fact that it's hindsight aside 636 - 637 -160 638 -00:11:10,740 ~-~-> 00:11:14,100 639 -for a moment because every single thing that you study when 640 - 641 -161 642 -00:11:14,100 ~-~-> 00:11:14,940 643 -you buy a book, 644 - 645 -162 646 -00:11:16,230 ~-~-> 00:11:20,280 647 -newsflash, that's all hindsight to when you go to a seminar 648 - 649 -163 650 -00:11:20,520 ~-~-> 00:11:23,940 651 -or a webinar, and they show you previous examples, that's 652 - 653 -164 654 -00:11:23,940 ~-~-> 00:11:28,140 655 -all hindsight to. So you'll learn by identifying a pattern 656 - 657 -165 658 -00:11:28,140 ~-~-> 00:11:32,430 659 -that repeats. Okay, so I'm teaching you a pattern of what it 660 - 661 -166 662 -00:11:32,430 ~-~-> 00:11:36,210 663 -looks like, and how it generally forms. Okay, so if you do 664 - 665 -167 666 -00:11:36,210 ~-~-> 00:11:39,870 667 -this, if you learn to do this very, very well, this could be 668 - 669 -168 670 -00:11:39,900 ~-~-> 00:11:43,710 671 -your personal trading model. You never need to learn 672 - 673 -169 674 -00:11:43,710 ~-~-> 00:11:45,870 675 -anything else. You never worry about indicators. You never 676 - 677 -170 678 -00:11:45,870 ~-~-> 00:11:48,510 679 -worry about learning anything else in the ICT library. You 680 - 681 -171 682 -00:11:48,510 ~-~-> 00:11:50,820 683 -don't even worry about mentorships you don't worry about 684 - 685 -172 686 -00:11:50,820 ~-~-> 00:11:54,060 687 -going over here and signing up with signal services, because 688 - 689 -173 690 -00:11:54,060 ~-~-> 00:11:59,910 691 -you will be your own power plant of decisions and ideas and 692 - 693 -174 694 -00:12:00,330 ~-~-> 00:12:04,530 695 -Trade setups, they'll come organically from your own study 696 - 697 -175 698 -00:12:04,560 ~-~-> 00:12:07,650 699 -not relying on other people not relying on me. Not people in 700 - 701 -176 702 -00:12:07,650 ~-~-> 00:12:11,400 703 -chat rooms or, or groups, nothing like that. Okay? The big 704 - 705 -177 706 -00:12:11,400 ~-~-> 00:12:15,570 707 -thing now is everyone's going to discord rooms, okay? Or 708 - 709 -178 710 -00:12:15,810 ~-~-> 00:12:19,170 711 -telegram rooms, all these things and they're all looking for 712 - 713 -179 714 -00:12:19,230 ~-~-> 00:12:24,090 715 -someone that's good, too They can copy cat off of. And you 716 - 717 -180 718 -00:12:24,090 ~-~-> 00:12:28,260 719 -don't need that. You're absolutely in a position to learn 720 - 721 -181 722 -00:12:28,260 ~-~-> 00:12:32,100 723 -how to do this for free, right here and you don't need to 724 - 725 -182 726 -00:12:32,100 ~-~-> 00:12:35,310 727 -have anybody else to convince you or patch on the back to 728 - 729 -183 730 -00:12:35,310 ~-~-> 00:12:38,040 731 -say, follow me because I'm going to do it and you're going 732 - 733 -184 734 -00:12:38,040 ~-~-> 00:12:40,920 735 -to copy us because that makes you subservient to them. And 736 - 737 -185 738 -00:12:40,920 ~-~-> 00:12:43,710 739 -that's not independent thinking. And to me personally, I 740 - 741 -186 742 -00:12:43,710 ~-~-> 00:12:46,560 743 -think it's weakness. And you don't want to be a weak minded 744 - 745 -187 746 -00:12:47,130 ~-~-> 00:12:50,490 747 -decision maker in something like this because you have the 748 - 749 -188 750 -00:12:50,490 ~-~-> 00:12:53,370 751 -capacity to lose a great deal of money for trading with live 752 - 753 -189 754 -00:12:53,370 ~-~-> 00:12:56,790 755 -funds, right so the down close candles in here that's our 756 - 757 -190 758 -00:12:56,790 ~-~-> 00:13:01,110 759 -order block. We had a candle tree down into And then the 760 - 761 -191 762 -00:13:01,110 ~-~-> 00:13:05,730 763 -previous day now again, kind of like just move this candle 764 - 765 -192 766 -00:13:05,730 ~-~-> 00:13:09,150 767 -out of here. Focus don't think that anything about this 768 - 769 -193 770 -00:13:09,150 ~-~-> 00:13:12,210 771 -candle right now we're only focusing on this candles range 772 - 773 -194 774 -00:13:12,240 ~-~-> 00:13:16,530 775 -and the previous day, which is the sixth of May. Okay, so in 776 - 777 -195 778 -00:13:16,530 ~-~-> 00:13:20,520 779 -the United States right now it's 8:41pm, New York local 780 - 781 -196 782 -00:13:20,520 ~-~-> 00:13:26,550 783 -time. And it's still the seventh for me. But it's a new 784 - 785 -197 786 -00:13:26,550 ~-~-> 00:13:29,580 787 -financial day in the Forex so that's why we're seeing this 788 - 789 -198 790 -00:13:29,580 ~-~-> 00:13:34,080 791 -candle form. So when we look at the previous day's range, 792 - 793 -199 794 -00:13:34,350 ~-~-> 00:13:38,850 795 -it's important to simply identify the highs and the lows of 796 - 797 -200 798 -00:13:38,850 ~-~-> 00:13:45,600 799 -it. Okay, so right away, we know this candles high and if we 800 - 801 -201 802 -00:13:45,600 ~-~-> 00:13:48,210 803 -looked at these two down close candles, the fact that we 804 - 805 -202 806 -00:13:48,210 ~-~-> 00:13:54,060 807 -traded down into it here we had a candle trade again, a 808 - 809 -203 810 -00:13:54,060 ~-~-> 00:13:58,560 811 -little bit into your block, the order block is starting at 812 - 813 -204 814 -00:13:58,560 ~-~-> 00:14:02,850 815 -the wick. Okay, so this candle Hy comes in at 6397 a four 816 - 817 -205 818 -00:14:03,090 ~-~-> 00:14:10,830 819 -bit that's the price action dips into that candle range. And 820 - 821 -206 822 -00:14:10,830 ~-~-> 00:14:14,970 823 -it does it again on the seventh. Okay, so it's not showing a 824 - 825 -207 826 -00:14:14,970 ~-~-> 00:14:18,120 827 -willingness to go deeper, it doesn't want to dig in deeper 828 - 829 -208 830 -00:14:18,120 ~-~-> 00:14:23,280 831 -and even take out the low over here. So we have to consider 832 - 833 -209 834 -00:14:23,280 ~-~-> 00:14:27,540 835 -at least for this episode for this particular video, the 836 - 837 -210 838 -00:14:27,540 ~-~-> 00:14:31,110 839 -likelihood of the market wanting to go higher. So what we 840 - 841 -211 842 -00:14:31,110 ~-~-> 00:14:36,060 843 -want to see is does it have the ability on the very next day 844 - 845 -212 846 -00:14:36,060 ~-~-> 00:14:40,170 847 -or the May 7 candle doesn't have the ability to trade above 848 - 849 -213 850 -00:14:40,170 ~-~-> 00:14:44,760 851 -the previous day's range high? Why is that important? For 852 - 853 -214 854 -00:14:44,760 ~-~-> 00:14:48,480 855 -those that have a serious interest in following along in 856 - 857 -215 858 -00:14:48,750 ~-~-> 00:14:52,530 859 -keeping up with a series, you want to take notes, okay, so 860 - 861 -216 862 -00:14:52,740 ~-~-> 00:14:59,760 863 -get yourself a pen and pad and just I guess make a study 864 - 865 -217 866 -00:14:59,760 ~-~-> 00:15:02,580 867 -journal For optimal trade entry, okay, so over the next 20 868 - 869 -218 870 -00:15:02,580 ~-~-> 00:15:06,150 871 -days, I'm going to give you simple little facets that go 872 - 873 -219 874 -00:15:06,150 ~-~-> 00:15:10,440 875 -along with this pattern. And you'll see that it will flesh 876 - 877 -220 878 -00:15:10,440 ~-~-> 00:15:13,080 879 -out over a period of time, and you'll start seeing things 880 - 881 -221 882 -00:15:13,080 ~-~-> 00:15:15,180 883 -that you didn't really see before, even if you're familiar 884 - 885 -222 886 -00:15:15,180 ~-~-> 00:15:18,750 887 -with the optimal trade entry. So we're gonna go down to a 888 - 889 -223 890 -00:15:18,750 ~-~-> 00:15:23,370 891 -lower timeframe, and these levels here are going to be on 892 - 893 -224 894 -00:15:23,370 ~-~-> 00:15:27,450 895 -the lower timeframe chart, but this study over the next 20 896 - 897 -225 898 -00:15:27,450 ~-~-> 00:15:32,100 899 -days is going to focus on intraday charts. And specifically 900 - 901 -226 902 -00:15:32,130 ~-~-> 00:15:35,940 903 -a five minute chart. And right away somebody you're like, I 904 - 905 -227 906 -00:15:35,940 ~-~-> 00:15:39,270 907 -don't like five minute charts. I can't do that. Trust me, 908 - 909 -228 910 -00:15:39,630 ~-~-> 00:15:42,210 911 -it's beneficial to your learning. Alright, so all right, so 912 - 913 -229 914 -00:15:42,210 ~-~-> 00:15:44,670 915 -what we have here is a blank canvas in the form of 916 - 917 -230 918 -00:15:44,670 ~-~-> 00:15:48,330 919 -candlesticks that may or may not mean anything to you, but I 920 - 921 -231 922 -00:15:48,330 ~-~-> 00:15:52,440 923 -want to press upon you the importance of knowing the 924 - 925 -232 926 -00:15:52,440 ~-~-> 00:15:56,250 927 -previous day's high and low and it's very simple process. 928 - 929 -233 930 -00:15:56,250 ~-~-> 00:16:00,000 931 -You can go into your charts and today and put vertical lines 932 - 933 -234 934 -00:16:00,600 ~-~-> 00:16:06,690 935 -On the seventh and the sixth, so the range low on the six is 936 - 937 -235 938 -00:16:06,690 ~-~-> 00:16:11,760 939 -here in the range high is here. So when we know that on the 940 - 941 -236 942 -00:16:11,760 ~-~-> 00:16:15,480 943 -daily chart, okay above previous day's highs and lows 944 - 945 -237 946 -00:16:17,100 ~-~-> 00:16:19,860 947 -only say like this above previous day's highs and below 948 - 949 -238 950 -00:16:19,860 ~-~-> 00:16:25,020 951 -previous day's lows. There's a bank of orders that generally 952 - 953 -239 954 -00:16:25,050 ~-~-> 00:16:28,530 955 -reside in the marketplace and throughout the day, depending 956 - 957 -240 958 -00:16:28,530 ~-~-> 00:16:32,820 959 -upon how we get closer to the previous day's high or low on 960 - 961 -241 962 -00:16:32,820 ~-~-> 00:16:34,650 963 -the new trading day and the new trading day. In this 964 - 965 -242 966 -00:16:34,710 ~-~-> 00:16:37,530 967 -example, here is the seventh. So we're assuming all this 968 - 969 -243 970 -00:16:37,530 ~-~-> 00:16:42,180 971 -price action here is what we're studying. When the market 972 - 973 -244 974 -00:16:42,180 ~-~-> 00:16:52,170 975 -has a predisposed. bias, or trend or momentum or you just 976 - 977 -245 978 -00:16:52,170 ~-~-> 00:16:56,040 979 -think, okay that it's going to go higher. You want to focus 980 - 981 -246 982 -00:16:56,040 ~-~-> 00:16:57,990 983 -on the previous day's high and then you want to see does it 984 - 985 -247 986 -00:16:57,990 ~-~-> 00:17:01,230 987 -have the ability to stretch and reach up To the previous 988 - 989 -248 990 -00:17:01,230 ~-~-> 00:17:06,210 991 -day's high, if it does, one of two things generally happens. 992 - 993 -249 994 -00:17:06,750 ~-~-> 00:17:09,690 995 -And assuming it's a bullish one, it goes through the 996 - 997 -250 998 -00:17:09,690 ~-~-> 00:17:12,450 999 -previous day's high and just explodes and never gives you a 1000 - 1001 -251 1002 -00:17:12,450 ~-~-> 00:17:14,880 1003 -chance to trade. And that's just a missed opportunity. And 1004 - 1005 -252 1006 -00:17:14,880 ~-~-> 00:17:17,130 1007 -there's nothing you could do about it. There's no reason to 1008 - 1009 -253 1010 -00:17:17,130 ~-~-> 00:17:19,290 1011 -get upset about it. There's no reason to go online and 1012 - 1013 -254 1014 -00:17:19,290 ~-~-> 00:17:22,140 1015 -complain to other people how you missed that trade, or you 1016 - 1017 -255 1018 -00:17:22,140 ~-~-> 00:17:25,950 1019 -suck, or you're, you're never going to get this. Never do 1020 - 1021 -256 1022 -00:17:25,950 ~-~-> 00:17:28,830 1023 -that, because you're actually giving yourself negative 1024 - 1025 -257 1026 -00:17:28,830 ~-~-> 00:17:31,710 1027 -reinforcement. And your subconscious will remember that in 1028 - 1029 -258 1030 -00:17:31,710 ~-~-> 00:17:36,240 1031 -every trade you take after that trade will be plagued by 1032 - 1033 -259 1034 -00:17:36,240 ~-~-> 00:17:39,720 1035 -that negative narrative that you've given yourself that you 1036 - 1037 -260 1038 -00:17:39,720 ~-~-> 00:17:42,540 1039 -suck, you're never going to get this. So every time you 1040 - 1041 -261 1042 -00:17:42,540 ~-~-> 00:17:46,170 1043 -actually muster up the courage to get an actually execute. 1044 - 1045 -262 1046 -00:17:47,430 ~-~-> 00:17:49,470 1047 -You're going to be scared, you're going to be constantly 1048 - 1049 -263 1050 -00:17:49,470 ~-~-> 00:17:52,080 1051 -revved up, you're going to be in a constant state of stress 1052 - 1053 -264 1054 -00:17:52,080 ~-~-> 00:17:55,080 1055 -and anxiety, versus just following the method that you've 1056 - 1057 -265 1058 -00:17:55,320 ~-~-> 00:17:58,410 1059 -adopted and focusing on what price is doing is it's still 1060 - 1061 -266 1062 -00:17:58,410 ~-~-> 00:18:01,560 1063 -viable in terms of a trade Should you collapse it or maybe 1064 - 1065 -267 1066 -00:18:01,560 ~-~-> 00:18:04,020 1067 -take some of the risk off or stick with it because now it's 1068 - 1069 -268 1070 -00:18:04,020 ~-~-> 00:18:08,790 1071 -moving in your favor. When we look at previous day's highs 1072 - 1073 -269 1074 -00:18:08,970 ~-~-> 00:18:13,590 1075 -and previous day's lows, we want to see the market go up 1076 - 1077 -270 1078 -00:18:13,590 ~-~-> 00:18:17,340 1079 -above it. And then once it trades to the previous day's high 1080 - 1081 -271 1082 -00:18:17,340 ~-~-> 00:18:20,970 1083 -if we're bullish, we want to see does it create an optimal 1084 - 1085 -272 1086 -00:18:20,970 ~-~-> 00:18:24,660 1087 -trade entry? Because many times you're going to see this 1088 - 1089 -273 1090 -00:18:24,660 ~-~-> 00:18:27,840 1091 -formation form exactly like I'm showing you here. Okay, lots 1092 - 1093 -274 1094 -00:18:27,840 ~-~-> 00:18:31,110 1095 -and lots of times do you see this formation form throughout 1096 - 1097 -275 1098 -00:18:31,110 ~-~-> 00:18:34,530 1099 -the week and it may not be that particular currency or this 1100 - 1101 -276 1102 -00:18:34,560 ~-~-> 00:18:37,290 1103 -currency in this example here Australian versus the Dollar, 1104 - 1105 -277 1106 -00:18:37,680 ~-~-> 00:18:42,180 1107 -it may be in euro it may be in cable, it may be in the beast 1108 - 1109 -278 1110 -00:18:42,180 ~-~-> 00:18:47,040 1111 -pound versus yen, it may be the New Zealand dollar, it may 1112 - 1113 -279 1114 -00:18:47,040 ~-~-> 00:18:53,910 1115 -be in gold. It may be in a crypto currency, okay. It's not 1116 - 1117 -280 1118 -00:18:53,910 ~-~-> 00:18:58,530 1119 -limited to just one currency stick to it and always expect 1120 - 1121 -281 1122 -00:18:58,530 ~-~-> 00:19:01,710 1123 -it to happen like that. When You understand this pattern, 1124 - 1125 -282 1126 -00:19:01,920 ~-~-> 00:19:05,250 1127 -you can mark out your previous day's highs and lows. And if 1128 - 1129 -283 1130 -00:19:05,280 ~-~-> 00:19:10,890 1131 -there is a very discernible, clear, unambiguous directional 1132 - 1133 -284 1134 -00:19:10,890 ~-~-> 00:19:14,460 1135 -bias that lends well to one particular currency or two over 1136 - 1137 -285 1138 -00:19:14,460 ~-~-> 00:19:17,040 1139 -the other basket of currencies that you follow, then that 1140 - 1141 -286 1142 -00:19:17,040 ~-~-> 00:19:19,320 1143 -means you've very easily filtered out all the other 1144 - 1145 -287 1146 -00:19:19,320 ~-~-> 00:19:21,930 1147 -currencies. So now you're gonna focus on maybe one or two 1148 - 1149 -288 1150 -00:19:21,930 ~-~-> 00:19:25,260 1151 -for that particular day and then wait to see if it trades to 1152 - 1153 -289 1154 -00:19:25,290 ~-~-> 00:19:28,260 1155 -end through the previous day's high if it's bullish, or 1156 - 1157 -290 1158 -00:19:28,320 ~-~-> 00:19:33,030 1159 -below the previous day's low if you're bearish. Now with 1160 - 1161 -291 1162 -00:19:33,030 ~-~-> 00:19:37,140 1163 -these ideas mentioned in general bullet point fashion, as 1164 - 1165 -292 1166 -00:19:37,140 ~-~-> 00:19:40,620 1167 -I've just given you, let's flesh this idea a little bit and 1168 - 1169 -293 1170 -00:19:40,620 ~-~-> 00:19:44,160 1171 -put some lipstick on this pig here. Okay, so we got the 1172 - 1173 -294 1174 -00:19:44,190 ~-~-> 00:19:47,670 1175 -vertical delineation here on the sixth and the seventh. So 1176 - 1177 -295 1178 -00:19:47,670 ~-~-> 00:19:50,370 1179 -between those two vertical lines, we have the highest high 1180 - 1181 -296 1182 -00:19:51,210 ~-~-> 00:19:54,630 1183 -and the lowest low as denoted on the chart here previous 1184 - 1185 -297 1186 -00:19:54,630 ~-~-> 00:19:58,650 1187 -day's high, previous day's low. And here's the daily bullish 1188 - 1189 -298 1190 -00:19:58,650 ~-~-> 00:20:01,920 1191 -order blocked as outlined On the daily chart before we move 1192 - 1193 -299 1194 -00:20:01,920 ~-~-> 00:20:03,990 1195 -down to a lower timeframe. Alright, so the previous day's 1196 - 1197 -300 1198 -00:20:03,990 ~-~-> 00:20:08,760 1199 -high on this particular candle here we have 6445 and three 1200 - 1201 -301 1202 -00:20:08,760 ~-~-> 00:20:13,320 1203 -pipettes. And the next candle is the very highest high at 1204 - 1205 -302 1206 -00:20:13,320 ~-~-> 00:20:19,830 1207 -6453. Okay, so there's our high. So think in terms of round 1208 - 1209 -303 1210 -00:20:19,830 ~-~-> 00:20:22,620 1211 -numbers and big figures and mid figures. Okay, so 1212 - 1213 -304 1214 -00:20:22,620 ~-~-> 00:20:27,690 1215 -essentially, this high, meaning 53, even if that's the high, 1216 - 1217 -305 1218 -00:20:27,720 ~-~-> 00:20:35,100 1219 -what is it really trading around 6450 mid figure. So it's 1220 - 1221 -306 1222 -00:20:35,100 ~-~-> 00:20:40,890 1223 -the midpoint between 64 00 and 65 00. So the mid figure 1224 - 1225 -307 1226 -00:20:40,890 ~-~-> 00:20:44,940 1227 -levels are very significant or important. Couple that with 1228 - 1229 -308 1230 -00:20:44,940 ~-~-> 00:20:48,930 1231 -the fact that this high and this high here are basically 1232 - 1233 -309 1234 -00:20:48,930 ~-~-> 00:20:50,820 1235 -relatively the same high 1236 - 1237 -310 1238 -00:20:52,410 ~-~-> 00:20:53,610 1239 -above this 1240 - 1241 -311 1242 -00:20:54,569 ~-~-> 00:20:57,179 1243 -clear area that would otherwise be viewed as retail 1244 - 1245 -312 1246 -00:20:57,179 ~-~-> 00:21:01,439 1247 -resistance. Traders think that the offered resistance here 1248 - 1249 -313 1250 -00:21:01,439 ~-~-> 00:21:03,689 1251 -it offered resistance here and as it starts to break down 1252 - 1253 -314 1254 -00:21:03,689 ~-~-> 00:21:07,769 1255 -anyone going short, they would feel very comfortable putting 1256 - 1257 -315 1258 -00:21:07,769 ~-~-> 00:21:12,149 1259 -a stop loss above these highs because they feel with visual 1260 - 1261 -316 1262 -00:21:12,149 ~-~-> 00:21:16,469 1263 -support behind the theory that this is resistance. So 1264 - 1265 -317 1266 -00:21:16,739 ~-~-> 00:21:20,249 1267 -there's going to be a bank of orders that reside above this 1268 - 1269 -318 1270 -00:21:20,699 ~-~-> 00:21:24,809 1271 -because it's the previous day's high when we're looking at 1272 - 1273 -319 1274 -00:21:24,809 ~-~-> 00:21:27,629 1275 -over here and the fact that we have relative equal highs, so 1276 - 1277 -320 1278 -00:21:27,629 ~-~-> 00:21:31,769 1279 -there's going to be a layer of liquidity above these highs 1280 - 1281 -321 1282 -00:21:31,769 ~-~-> 00:21:37,379 1283 -and above the mid figure, okay, so 6450 which is this black 1284 - 1285 -322 1286 -00:21:37,379 ~-~-> 00:21:41,099 1287 -line here, and then 10 pips above it, which is 6460 and 10 1288 - 1289 -323 1290 -00:21:41,099 ~-~-> 00:21:45,239 1291 -pips below is 6440 so we have a standard deviation of 10 1292 - 1293 -324 1294 -00:21:45,239 ~-~-> 00:21:47,909 1295 -pips now, I don't want to make it too complicated, but just 1296 - 1297 -325 1298 -00:21:47,909 ~-~-> 00:21:51,839 1299 -understand that what I'm showing you here, this is about the 1300 - 1301 -326 1302 -00:21:52,559 ~-~-> 00:21:55,829 1303 -general rule of thumb, you're going to get that seems really 1304 - 1305 -327 1306 -00:21:55,829 ~-~-> 00:21:59,339 1307 -technical. Just know that whenever we have a previous high 1308 - 1309 -328 1310 -00:21:59,819 ~-~-> 00:22:03,779 1311 -or Previous low power did this here, I would do the same 1312 - 1313 -329 1314 -00:22:03,779 ~-~-> 00:22:06,509 1315 -thing around this low here because the low in this candle 1316 - 1317 -330 1318 -00:22:07,919 ~-~-> 00:22:13,739 1319 -comes in at 6378. So we have an institutional level of 80. 1320 - 1321 -331 1322 -00:22:13,769 ~-~-> 00:22:20,189 1323 -So if you're again, if you're new here 00 level, point 80 or 1324 - 1325 -332 1326 -00:22:20,219 ~-~-> 00:22:25,829 1327 -80, in this case here 50, mid figure, and point 20 or 20, in 1328 - 1329 -333 1330 -00:22:25,859 ~-~-> 00:22:28,709 1331 -instance, for Australian dollar, so you have mid figure 1332 - 1333 -334 1334 -00:22:28,709 ~-~-> 00:22:32,999 1335 -levels that's very sensitive at level 20 and the 00 levels. 1336 - 1337 -335 1338 -00:22:33,419 ~-~-> 00:22:35,789 1339 -Now, why are these levels important? Why are they 1340 - 1341 -336 1342 -00:22:35,789 ~-~-> 00:22:41,219 1343 -significant is because a lot of large fund traders make 1344 - 1345 -337 1346 -00:22:41,219 ~-~-> 00:22:44,699 1347 -their orders very easy for processing and they just put them 1348 - 1349 -338 1350 -00:22:44,699 ~-~-> 00:22:48,719 1351 -in there at that level. A lot of commerce gets done at those 1352 - 1353 -339 1354 -00:22:48,719 ~-~-> 00:22:51,149 1355 -levels too. So when there's global commerce that comes into 1356 - 1357 -340 1358 -00:22:51,149 ~-~-> 00:22:55,679 1359 -the marketplace, IBM needs to do business in Japan so they 1360 - 1361 -341 1362 -00:22:55,679 ~-~-> 00:22:59,369 1363 -have to turn dollars into yen when they put orders in for 1364 - 1365 -342 1366 -00:22:59,369 ~-~-> 00:23:06,719 1367 -that transaction, it's just easier for the bank to move that 1368 - 1369 -343 1370 -00:23:06,719 ~-~-> 00:23:11,789 1371 -into those levels and do the commerce there. So, again, 1372 - 1373 -344 1374 -00:23:12,089 ~-~-> 00:23:16,349 1375 -that's not important. It's nothing that needs to be known or 1376 - 1377 -345 1378 -00:23:16,349 ~-~-> 00:23:20,069 1379 -followed or believed in. Okay, to see this work, all we're 1380 - 1381 -346 1382 -00:23:20,069 ~-~-> 00:23:23,039 1383 -doing is studying a signature in price action, that will 1384 - 1385 -347 1386 -00:23:23,039 ~-~-> 00:23:27,509 1387 -tend to repeat a lot. And this is one of the formations of 1388 - 1389 -348 1390 -00:23:27,509 ~-~-> 00:23:31,439 1391 -optimal trade entry and why it forms here. Okay, so, again, 1392 - 1393 -349 1394 -00:23:31,529 ~-~-> 00:23:34,139 1395 -the daily chart, we're assuming the previous day's high 1396 - 1397 -350 1398 -00:23:34,319 ~-~-> 00:23:38,579 1399 -should be traded to and if it does, it should be bullish and 1400 - 1401 -351 1402 -00:23:38,579 ~-~-> 00:23:42,899 1403 -look to see higher prices. If it goes below the previous 1404 - 1405 -352 1406 -00:23:42,899 ~-~-> 00:23:48,359 1407 -day's low, that means that we can't be as bullish, but we 1408 - 1409 -353 1410 -00:23:48,359 ~-~-> 00:23:51,629 1411 -can now study to see if we have a bearish optimal trade 1412 - 1413 -354 1414 -00:23:51,629 ~-~-> 00:23:54,929 1415 -entry because the previous day's low has been violated. So 1416 - 1417 -355 1418 -00:23:55,019 ~-~-> 00:23:57,569 1419 -there's always a study and it's not about hints is very 1420 - 1421 -356 1422 -00:23:57,569 ~-~-> 00:23:59,849 1423 -important. Write this down and underline it several times 1424 - 1425 -357 1426 -00:23:59,849 ~-~-> 00:24:02,099 1427 -and highlight it and draw all kinds of, you know, 1428 - 1429 -358 1430 -00:24:02,219 ~-~-> 00:24:04,499 1431 -annotations around that draw your attention how important 1432 - 1433 -359 1434 -00:24:04,499 ~-~-> 00:24:07,019 1435 -this is, it's not about being right or wrong. 1436 - 1437 -360 1438 -00:24:08,550 ~-~-> 00:24:12,480 1439 -The study is to show you what it looks like every single day 1440 - 1441 -361 1442 -00:24:12,480 ~-~-> 00:24:15,900 1443 -and how you're going to go into the chart. So when I show 1444 - 1445 -362 1446 -00:24:15,900 ~-~-> 00:24:20,730 1447 -these examples, again, it's just to train your eye to see 1448 - 1449 -363 1450 -00:24:20,820 ~-~-> 00:24:24,030 1451 -the thing I'm showing you over and over and over again. And 1452 - 1453 -364 1454 -00:24:24,030 ~-~-> 00:24:28,980 1455 -you're gonna find that this is exactly what it tends to do 1456 - 1457 -365 1458 -00:24:29,280 ~-~-> 00:24:32,850 1459 -in other markets as well. It's not just me form fitting it 1460 - 1461 -366 1462 -00:24:32,940 ~-~-> 00:24:37,440 1463 -into this one because it looks pretty okay. So again, the 1464 - 1465 -367 1466 -00:24:37,440 ~-~-> 00:24:39,480 1467 -idea is we're looking for the previous day's high on the 1468 - 1469 -368 1470 -00:24:39,480 ~-~-> 00:24:43,140 1471 -sixth the be traded to it does here and then we consolidate 1472 - 1473 -369 1474 -00:24:43,140 ~-~-> 00:24:45,900 1475 -and retrace a little bit and we hang around once it hits 1476 - 1477 -370 1478 -00:24:45,900 ~-~-> 00:24:50,490 1479 -that 6450 level, which that black line here. It does blow 1480 - 1481 -371 1482 -00:24:50,490 ~-~-> 00:24:53,670 1483 -out the previous day's high not by much but it does. And 1484 - 1485 -372 1486 -00:24:53,670 ~-~-> 00:24:56,370 1487 -then it gyrates down 10 pips or a little bit more than that, 1488 - 1489 -373 1490 -00:24:56,610 ~-~-> 00:24:59,610 1491 -and picks up more orders. What is it doing, it's gathering 1492 - 1493 -374 1494 -00:24:59,610 ~-~-> 00:25:02,190 1495 -more orders. here and then there's a displacement here, 1496 - 1497 -375 1498 -00:25:02,430 ~-~-> 00:25:05,790 1499 -price starts to create a run up above the previous day's 1500 - 1501 -376 1502 -00:25:05,790 ~-~-> 00:25:09,780 1503 -high with a little more meaningful run. So the shallow run 1504 - 1505 -377 1506 -00:25:09,780 ~-~-> 00:25:12,540 1507 -here gets overtaken here. And then price does what it 1508 - 1509 -378 1510 -00:25:12,540 ~-~-> 00:25:16,320 1511 -returns back to the 6450 mid figure and consolidates in 1512 - 1513 -379 1514 -00:25:16,320 ~-~-> 00:25:21,750 1515 -between 6460 6450. And what is it doing? It's allowing all 1516 - 1517 -380 1518 -00:25:21,750 ~-~-> 00:25:25,890 1519 -the orders that was above the previous day's high and around 1520 - 1521 -381 1522 -00:25:26,010 ~-~-> 00:25:32,370 1523 -6450. An order bank gets depleted because of the time it's 1524 - 1525 -382 1526 -00:25:32,370 ~-~-> 00:25:34,950 1527 -sitting in here. Now when I say order bank, it's it's 1528 - 1529 -383 1530 -00:25:34,950 ~-~-> 00:25:39,090 1531 -basically a huge collection of orders that may or may not be 1532 - 1533 -384 1534 -00:25:39,090 ~-~-> 00:25:42,060 1535 -in the marketplace around here, but as it sits in here, 1536 - 1537 -385 1538 -00:25:42,570 ~-~-> 00:25:45,570 1539 -people will start to build a bias or sentiment about what 1540 - 1541 -386 1542 -00:25:45,570 ~-~-> 00:25:48,870 1543 -they think the Australian dollar is going to do. In terms of 1544 - 1545 -387 1546 -00:25:49,050 ~-~-> 00:25:52,680 1547 -bullishness or bearishness. These orders that are 1548 - 1549 -388 1550 -00:25:52,710 ~-~-> 00:25:58,800 1551 -accumulated in here are going to build up over time. Price 1552 - 1553 -389 1554 -00:25:58,800 ~-~-> 00:26:02,430 1555 -makes a run above this 6460 level and it starts just get up 1556 - 1557 -390 1558 -00:26:02,430 ~-~-> 00:26:06,990 1559 -into the 6470. But it's not important. We're looking for 1560 - 1561 -391 1562 -00:26:07,230 ~-~-> 00:26:12,360 1563 -price to go to a specific time and specific price. So we're 1564 - 1565 -392 1566 -00:26:12,360 ~-~-> 00:26:15,180 1567 -looking at time and price. That's what makes optimal trade 1568 - 1569 -393 1570 -00:26:15,180 ~-~-> 00:26:18,930 1571 -entry or the ICT optimal trade entry pattern. What it is, 1572 - 1573 -394 1574 -00:26:19,200 ~-~-> 00:26:21,480 1575 -it's not just simply going in there and saying, okay, every 1576 - 1577 -395 1578 -00:26:21,480 ~-~-> 00:26:24,120 1579 -time that price retraces it, because otherwise that's just 1580 - 1581 -396 1582 -00:26:24,120 ~-~-> 00:26:28,590 1583 -Fibonacci trading, okay? Or ratio trading, or harmonic 1584 - 1585 -397 1586 -00:26:28,620 ~-~-> 00:26:31,530 1587 -trading, you know, I'm saying it everyone's got a name for 1588 - 1589 -398 1590 -00:26:31,530 ~-~-> 00:26:34,500 1591 -it, okay? But what I'm showing you what makes this optimal, 1592 - 1593 -399 1594 -00:26:34,950 ~-~-> 00:26:38,460 1595 -okay? is the fact that it's occurring at a key time of day. 1596 - 1597 -400 1598 -00:26:39,000 ~-~-> 00:26:42,300 1599 -Now, I'm not, I'm not teaching you, ICT kill zones. Okay, 1600 - 1601 -401 1602 -00:26:42,300 ~-~-> 00:26:46,620 1603 -I'm gonna make it very, very simple. It's specific times a 1604 - 1605 -402 1606 -00:26:46,620 ~-~-> 00:26:49,080 1607 -window, a window that begins in a window to ends and then 1608 - 1609 -403 1610 -00:26:49,080 ~-~-> 00:26:53,550 1611 -we're only focusing during the New York session. Okay, so 1612 - 1613 -404 1614 -00:26:53,550 ~-~-> 00:26:56,700 1615 -it's not the New York kill zone. It's the new york session. 1616 - 1617 -405 1618 -00:26:56,880 ~-~-> 00:27:01,200 1619 -So it allows a great deal of flexibility It allows you also 1620 - 1621 -406 1622 -00:27:01,200 ~-~-> 00:27:05,820 1623 -to look for this pattern with specific envelopes and time 1624 - 1625 -407 1626 -00:27:05,820 ~-~-> 00:27:08,610 1627 -where it begins and ends. If it doesn't occur, then you 1628 - 1629 -408 1630 -00:27:08,640 ~-~-> 00:27:11,910 1631 -can't do anything with it. It may form later on, and you'll 1632 - 1633 -409 1634 -00:27:11,910 ~-~-> 00:27:14,790 1635 -be like, Oh, I didn't see it then and I didn't take it in. 1636 - 1637 -410 1638 -00:27:14,970 ~-~-> 00:27:19,200 1639 -So I'm mad. Don't be mad. You only want something that makes 1640 - 1641 -411 1642 -00:27:19,200 ~-~-> 00:27:22,980 1643 -sense and a time where you anticipate it occurring. This is 1644 - 1645 -412 1646 -00:27:23,850 ~-~-> 00:27:30,240 1647 -discipline, this is focusing on a rule based premise. And 1648 - 1649 -413 1650 -00:27:30,270 ~-~-> 00:27:34,080 1651 -following your price action model. This is the way 1652 - 1653 -414 1654 -00:27:34,080 ~-~-> 00:27:37,200 1655 -professional traders do it. They don't get lacks in their 1656 - 1657 -415 1658 -00:27:37,620 ~-~-> 00:27:41,100 1659 -rule rules and and say, Okay, well, it was good. Last 12 1660 - 1661 -416 1662 -00:27:41,100 ~-~-> 00:27:44,190 1663 -times I did it, but this time, I just feel lucky. And I'm 1664 - 1665 -417 1666 -00:27:44,190 ~-~-> 00:27:47,250 1667 -just going to do things slightly different. They don't do 1668 - 1669 -418 1670 -00:27:47,250 ~-~-> 00:27:51,180 1671 -that. Okay, generally, if you have a model or trading plan, 1672 - 1673 -419 1674 -00:27:52,080 ~-~-> 00:27:55,200 1675 -you want to stick to the rules. And that way, you're not 1676 - 1677 -420 1678 -00:27:55,200 ~-~-> 00:27:58,770 1679 -going to be confused when things go awry. It's just simply a 1680 - 1681 -421 1682 -00:27:58,770 ~-~-> 00:28:02,250 1683 -losing trade. You're not going to be able to avoid every 1684 - 1685 -422 1686 -00:28:02,280 ~-~-> 00:28:06,780 1687 -instance of that occurring. Everyone takes losses. I take 1688 - 1689 -423 1690 -00:28:06,870 ~-~-> 00:28:12,090 1691 -losses. I have lost money, okay? You're going to lose money, 1692 - 1693 -424 1694 -00:28:12,180 ~-~-> 00:28:14,700 1695 -you can't avoid it. It's absolutely going to happen. If you 1696 - 1697 -425 1698 -00:28:14,700 ~-~-> 00:28:18,510 1699 -put life money in here, you're going to lose money. But if 1700 - 1701 -426 1702 -00:28:18,510 ~-~-> 00:28:23,130 1703 -you learn how to do this, you're going to see how often this 1704 - 1705 -427 1706 -00:28:23,130 ~-~-> 00:28:26,550 1707 -signature becomes very familiar in price action, and I'll 1708 - 1709 -428 1710 -00:28:26,550 ~-~-> 00:28:31,020 1711 -leave up to you what that means on an individual basis. So 1712 - 1713 -429 1714 -00:28:31,050 ~-~-> 00:28:34,410 1715 -price stays around and meanders up and down gyrates until we 1716 - 1717 -430 1718 -00:28:34,410 ~-~-> 00:28:37,830 1719 -get to a specific time of the day and this is going to be 1720 - 1721 -431 1722 -00:28:38,070 ~-~-> 00:28:43,290 1723 -8:30am to 11 o'clock in the morning, New York time, these 1724 - 1725 -432 1726 -00:28:43,290 ~-~-> 00:28:48,810 1727 -are always new york times 830 New York time to 11 o'clock, 1728 - 1729 -433 1730 -00:28:49,080 ~-~-> 00:28:49,950 1731 -New York time. 1732 - 1733 -434 1734 -00:28:51,270 ~-~-> 00:28:55,320 1735 -Do not email me Why is this time this and not in New York 1736 - 1737 -435 1738 -00:28:55,350 ~-~-> 00:28:58,620 1739 -kill zone times? I'm not teaching mentorship. I'm not 1740 - 1741 -436 1742 -00:28:58,620 ~-~-> 00:29:02,400 1743 -teaching ICT Killzone. I'm teaching you a specific price 1744 - 1745 -437 1746 -00:29:02,400 ~-~-> 00:29:05,700 1747 -action model with role based ideas. And you work with just 1748 - 1749 -438 1750 -00:29:05,700 ~-~-> 00:29:09,150 1751 -this, okay? I'm not reinventing it because my stuff doesn't 1752 - 1753 -439 1754 -00:29:09,150 ~-~-> 00:29:12,540 1755 -work anymore. Okay, that's not what I'm doing. I'm making a 1756 - 1757 -440 1758 -00:29:12,540 ~-~-> 00:29:16,200 1759 -very specific window of time. And it's based on New York 1760 - 1761 -441 1762 -00:29:16,200 ~-~-> 00:29:21,930 1763 -time. So if you want to see the time window I have set you 1764 - 1765 -442 1766 -00:29:21,930 ~-~-> 00:29:24,570 1767 -can see right here, this is what I have in my time setting. 1768 - 1769 -443 1770 -00:29:25,200 ~-~-> 00:29:29,190 1771 -So this is what you'd look for. And then your chart will 1772 - 1773 -444 1774 -00:29:29,190 ~-~-> 00:29:34,470 1775 -look like mine is here. If you live in a different time 1776 - 1777 -445 1778 -00:29:34,470 ~-~-> 00:29:36,840 1779 -zone, a different country, then you need to figure out what 1780 - 1781 -446 1782 -00:29:36,840 ~-~-> 00:29:40,950 1783 -that time is for you locally in where you live at. But this 1784 - 1785 -447 1786 -00:29:40,950 ~-~-> 00:29:47,070 1787 -is the time that this pattern tends to form. Okay, now, the 1788 - 1789 -448 1790 -00:29:47,070 ~-~-> 00:29:50,280 1791 -green shaded area in here is what everyone's familiar with 1792 - 1793 -449 1794 -00:29:50,280 ~-~-> 00:29:53,550 1795 -in terms of my pattern optimal trade entry optimal trade 1796 - 1797 -450 1798 -00:29:53,550 ~-~-> 00:30:00,390 1799 -entry is the 62% retracement level to the 797 retracement 1800 - 1801 -451 1802 -00:30:00,390 ~-~-> 00:30:09,780 1803 -level and the mid point or 70.5 level you can see here 1804 - 1805 -452 1806 -00:30:11,219 ~-~-> 00:30:16,349 1807 -and these are the levels that are highlighted. Okay. So 1808 - 1809 -453 1810 -00:30:16,409 ~-~-> 00:30:20,489 1811 -everything here is what I have on my fit. So these are the, 1812 - 1813 -454 1814 -00:30:20,519 ~-~-> 00:30:23,939 1815 -that's the levels that you would have for your Fibonacci 1816 - 1817 -455 1818 -00:30:23,939 ~-~-> 00:30:27,449 1819 -over here, okay on trading view, so that way it's included 1820 - 1821 -456 1822 -00:30:27,449 ~-~-> 00:30:30,359 1823 -now they don't change, they're not flipping around and 1824 - 1825 -457 1826 -00:30:30,749 ~-~-> 00:30:34,349 1827 -making it fit because I gotta have a winner every single 1828 - 1829 -458 1830 -00:30:34,349 ~-~-> 00:30:38,429 1831 -day. That's not what I'm doing here. Okay. So again, all of 1832 - 1833 -459 1834 -00:30:38,429 ~-~-> 00:30:42,389 1835 -this gyration is just simply working the Bank of orders that 1836 - 1837 -460 1838 -00:30:42,389 ~-~-> 00:30:45,299 1839 -come and go around that mid figure level and above the 1840 - 1841 -461 1842 -00:30:45,299 ~-~-> 00:30:49,439 1843 -previous day's high. Now, remember earlier I said one of two 1844 - 1845 -462 1846 -00:30:49,439 ~-~-> 00:30:51,059 1847 -things are going to happen when you're bullish, and if it 1848 - 1849 -463 1850 -00:30:51,059 ~-~-> 00:30:54,119 1851 -trades to the previous day's high one it takes off and it 1852 - 1853 -464 1854 -00:30:54,119 ~-~-> 00:30:56,009 1855 -doesn't give you a chance to do anything and you miss that 1856 - 1857 -465 1858 -00:30:56,009 ~-~-> 00:31:00,299 1859 -opportunity or it starts to gyrate around the previous stays 1860 - 1861 -466 1862 -00:31:00,299 ~-~-> 00:31:04,319 1863 -high. Okay, and you want to know what institutional price 1864 - 1865 -467 1866 -00:31:04,319 ~-~-> 00:31:07,769 1867 -level you're working around the closest to it. Okay, so 1868 - 1869 -468 1870 -00:31:07,769 ~-~-> 00:31:09,689 1871 -normally when we're saying closest to the previous day's 1872 - 1873 -469 1874 -00:31:09,689 ~-~-> 00:31:14,279 1875 -high, in this instance, it's 6450. And then you do an 1876 - 1877 -470 1878 -00:31:14,279 ~-~-> 00:31:18,059 1879 -envelope of 10 pips above that, and 10 pips below it. And 1880 - 1881 -471 1882 -00:31:18,059 ~-~-> 00:31:22,499 1883 -then you, you allow basically price to generate a trading 1884 - 1885 -472 1886 -00:31:22,499 ~-~-> 00:31:27,749 1887 -range until we get to this little sweet spot in time between 1888 - 1889 -473 1890 -00:31:27,749 ~-~-> 00:31:31,649 1891 -830 in the morning, why 830 for your notes, 830 there's 1892 - 1893 -474 1894 -00:31:31,649 ~-~-> 00:31:33,959 1895 -usually a lot of news that comes out during the New York 1896 - 1897 -475 1898 -00:31:33,959 ~-~-> 00:31:39,509 1899 -session. Okay, so the 830 new session. Usually, it's like 1900 - 1901 -476 1902 -00:31:39,509 ~-~-> 00:31:44,249 1903 -non farm payroll will come out some other kind of report. I 1904 - 1905 -477 1906 -00:31:44,249 ~-~-> 00:31:46,289 1907 -don't off the top my head know what they are. And I don't 1908 - 1909 -478 1910 -00:31:46,289 ~-~-> 00:31:48,449 1911 -really care to know what they are really, because I don't 1912 - 1913 -479 1914 -00:31:48,479 ~-~-> 00:31:52,829 1915 -have any real specific affinity for one particular set of 1916 - 1917 -480 1918 -00:31:52,859 ~-~-> 00:31:56,159 1919 -data because they always come in in now in terms of what's 1920 - 1921 -481 1922 -00:31:56,159 ~-~-> 00:31:59,579 1923 -relevant right now. What's the focus right now, whereas at 1924 - 1925 -482 1926 -00:31:59,579 ~-~-> 00:32:02,879 1927 -the time of this Recording employment numbers, or the lack 1928 - 1929 -483 1930 -00:32:02,879 ~-~-> 00:32:06,209 1931 -of employment is the main focus right now, because 1932 - 1933 -484 1934 -00:32:06,209 ~-~-> 00:32:10,349 1935 -everyone's at home or without a job because of the illness 1936 - 1937 -485 1938 -00:32:10,349 ~-~-> 00:32:16,169 1939 -that's been spreading. So when we get to 830, you want to 1940 - 1941 -486 1942 -00:32:16,169 ~-~-> 00:32:20,579 1943 -see price. Try to trade when you're bullish trade down into 1944 - 1945 -487 1946 -00:32:20,669 ~-~-> 00:32:27,029 1947 -62 to 79% retracement level on the fib. Now, that is your 1948 - 1949 -488 1950 -00:32:27,029 ~-~-> 00:32:33,179 1951 -range determined from the low to the high once this previous 1952 - 1953 -489 1954 -00:32:33,179 ~-~-> 00:32:37,949 1955 -day's high is broken. If this was a bearish scenario, we 1956 - 1957 -490 1958 -00:32:37,949 ~-~-> 00:32:40,619 1959 -would just do the opposite of what's been seen here. Once 1960 - 1961 -491 1962 -00:32:40,619 ~-~-> 00:32:44,339 1963 -the low of the previous day's low is broken. We would use a 1964 - 1965 -492 1966 -00:32:44,339 ~-~-> 00:32:49,289 1967 -short term high to a short term low that would be below the 1968 - 1969 -493 1970 -00:32:49,289 ~-~-> 00:32:51,419 1971 -previous day's low when you're bearish. But in this 1972 - 1973 -494 1974 -00:32:51,419 ~-~-> 00:32:54,419 1975 -instance, obviously we're bullish, so we want to use a short 1976 - 1977 -495 1978 -00:32:54,419 ~-~-> 00:32:59,969 1979 -term low to the short term high so this range is the range 1980 - 1981 -496 1982 -00:32:59,999 ~-~-> 00:33:05,669 1983 -Prior to the formation of the New York session of 830 in the 1984 - 1985 -497 1986 -00:33:05,669 ~-~-> 00:33:07,829 1987 -morning, New York time to 11 o'clock in the morning, New 1988 - 1989 -498 1990 -00:33:07,829 ~-~-> 00:33:12,719 1991 -York time, why 11 o'clock, that's typically around when 1992 - 1993 -499 1994 -00:33:12,749 ~-~-> 00:33:17,159 1995 -London clothes occurs. And usually it's also the time when 1996 - 1997 -500 1998 -00:33:17,819 ~-~-> 00:33:22,919 1999 -the am session starts to wane. In the New York session and 2000 - 2001 -501 2002 -00:33:23,399 ~-~-> 00:33:28,109 2003 -early lunch takers did leave the marketplace. That volume is 2004 - 2005 -502 2006 -00:33:28,229 ~-~-> 00:33:32,249 2007 -no longer available in through noon to one o'clock in the 2008 - 2009 -503 2010 -00:33:32,249 ~-~-> 00:33:35,429 2011 -afternoon. That's generally the New York lunch and it can be 2012 - 2013 -504 2014 -00:33:35,429 ~-~-> 00:33:38,099 2015 -quiet during those times. You only want to be looking for 2016 - 2017 -505 2018 -00:33:38,099 ~-~-> 00:33:41,609 2019 -this pattern up to 11 o'clock in the morning, after 11 2020 - 2021 -506 2022 -00:33:41,609 ~-~-> 00:33:46,409 2023 -o'clock. It can form but it's something other than what I'm 2024 - 2025 -507 2026 -00:33:46,409 ~-~-> 00:33:49,799 2027 -teaching here. And that's not important. The point is, is 2028 - 2029 -508 2030 -00:33:49,799 ~-~-> 00:33:52,709 2031 -you want to see this pattern form during this time of day 2032 - 2033 -509 2034 -00:33:52,859 ~-~-> 00:33:57,029 2035 -with the bias determined by what you determined. When your 2036 - 2037 -510 2038 -00:33:57,029 ~-~-> 00:33:58,709 2039 -daily chart Do you think the previous day's highs gonna be 2040 - 2041 -511 2042 -00:33:58,709 ~-~-> 00:34:00,959 2043 -taken out or the previous day's low today. Now, here's the 2044 - 2045 -512 2046 -00:34:00,959 ~-~-> 00:34:03,539 2047 -thing, the beautiful, beautiful thing really is is many 2048 - 2049 -513 2050 -00:34:03,539 ~-~-> 00:34:06,179 2051 -times you don't even need a bias. You just wait for the 2052 - 2053 -514 2054 -00:34:06,419 ~-~-> 00:34:09,659 2055 -chart to show you what it's done. Does it take out the 2056 - 2057 -515 2058 -00:34:09,659 ~-~-> 00:34:13,019 2059 -previous day's high, or the previous day's low? At this time 2060 - 2061 -516 2062 -00:34:13,019 ~-~-> 00:34:17,579 2063 -of day? What has it done while the here's Midnight in New 2064 - 2065 -517 2066 -00:34:17,579 ~-~-> 00:34:21,509 2067 -York, and during the London session, it created a run 2068 - 2069 -518 2070 -00:34:21,509 ~-~-> 00:34:26,729 2071 -higher. So there's been a lot of buying taking place to get 2072 - 2073 -519 2074 -00:34:26,729 ~-~-> 00:34:30,089 2075 -above the previous day's high, does it create an optimal 2076 - 2077 -520 2078 -00:34:30,089 ~-~-> 00:34:33,209 2079 -trade entry, so the low to the high that's why I had the fib 2080 - 2081 -521 2082 -00:34:33,209 ~-~-> 00:34:35,819 2083 -drawn on, even though it's drugged out to here that way, you 2084 - 2085 -522 2086 -00:34:35,819 ~-~-> 00:34:39,929 2087 -can see over the levels how they line up nicely with time. 2088 - 2089 -523 2090 -00:34:41,189 ~-~-> 00:34:45,389 2091 -So we have two components here we have the element of time. 2092 - 2093 -524 2094 -00:34:47,309 ~-~-> 00:34:52,199 2095 -And we have the element of price. So price is the level 2096 - 2097 -525 2098 -00:34:52,199 ~-~-> 00:34:56,009 2099 -determined by the fib relative to its high and low of that 2100 - 2101 -526 2102 -00:34:56,009 ~-~-> 00:34:56,609 2103 -range. 2104 - 2105 -527 2106 -00:34:57,960 ~-~-> 00:35:04,530 2107 -Time is static This is always static, it does not change, it 2108 - 2109 -528 2110 -00:35:04,530 ~-~-> 00:35:07,620 2111 -does not deviate. It's 830 in the morning, New York time to 2112 - 2113 -529 2114 -00:35:07,620 ~-~-> 00:35:12,450 2115 -11 o'clock, it does not change. So the easy way to do that 2116 - 2117 -530 2118 -00:35:12,450 ~-~-> 00:35:17,190 2119 -is simply just get a horizontal, I'm sorry, a vertical line 2120 - 2121 -531 2122 -00:35:19,410 ~-~-> 00:35:20,100 2123 -and put it 2124 - 2125 -532 2126 -00:35:23,730 ~-~-> 00:35:30,210 2127 -at these specific times. If you do that, 2128 - 2129 -533 2130 -00:35:40,710 ~-~-> 00:35:45,930 2131 -you know, in between these two vertical lines, you don't 2132 - 2133 -534 2134 -00:35:45,930 ~-~-> 00:35:51,210 2135 -need to have a guess as to when something's going to form. 2136 - 2137 -535 2138 -00:35:51,240 ~-~-> 00:35:54,510 2139 -You know, when when price enters this area between the first 2140 - 2141 -536 2142 -00:35:54,510 ~-~-> 00:35:57,750 2143 -vertical line up to the second vertical line, you're 2144 - 2145 -537 2146 -00:35:57,750 ~-~-> 00:36:01,080 2147 -anticipating an optimal trade entry to form So that's the 2148 - 2149 -538 2150 -00:36:01,110 ~-~-> 00:36:05,700 2151 -expectation that you'll have by having your vertical lines 2152 - 2153 -539 2154 -00:36:05,700 ~-~-> 00:36:07,740 2155 -on here. So you don't right now have a whole lot of business 2156 - 2157 -540 2158 -00:36:07,740 ~-~-> 00:36:13,710 2159 -on this chart. But you can see clearly that this is what the 2160 - 2161 -541 2162 -00:36:13,710 ~-~-> 00:36:17,550 2163 -time element would be to this pattern. Price is always going 2164 - 2165 -542 2166 -00:36:17,550 ~-~-> 00:36:21,150 2167 -to be between 62% annotation level and the sub nine tracing 2168 - 2169 -543 2170 -00:36:21,150 ~-~-> 00:36:26,430 2171 -level, which is 79 here, and 62 is just underneath that 50 2172 - 2173 -544 2174 -00:36:26,430 ~-~-> 00:36:30,570 2175 -level. Okay, so 6450 is this black line here. So it cleans 2176 - 2177 -545 2178 -00:36:30,570 ~-~-> 00:36:37,320 2179 -it up a little bit. Okay, so you can see 60 to 79, and 70.5, 2180 - 2181 -546 2182 -00:36:37,560 ~-~-> 00:36:41,550 2183 -which is a sweet spot or optimal trade entry. Okay? When 2184 - 2185 -547 2186 -00:36:41,550 ~-~-> 00:36:46,440 2187 -price drops down into this level, you can be a buyer on 2188 - 2189 -548 2190 -00:36:46,440 ~-~-> 00:36:50,460 2191 -paper or demo, and I'm not going to save you on that, 2192 - 2193 -549 2194 -00:36:50,640 ~-~-> 00:36:53,490 2195 -because I'm not licensed to do that, but we're studying 2196 - 2197 -550 2198 -00:36:53,490 ~-~-> 00:36:56,610 2199 -price action, and you could be a buyer here with the 2200 - 2201 -551 2202 -00:36:56,610 ~-~-> 00:37:00,000 2203 -expectation that we would see it expand. now. I'll get up 2204 - 2205 -552 2206 -00:37:00,000 ~-~-> 00:37:03,360 2207 -Here to talk about these levels in a minute. But right now, 2208 - 2209 -553 2210 -00:37:03,810 ~-~-> 00:37:07,020 2211 -this low is where your stop would have to be below that. 2212 - 2213 -554 2214 -00:37:07,260 ~-~-> 00:37:10,320 2215 -Okay, so the lowest candle, what we're anchoring the fifth 2216 - 2217 -555 2218 -00:37:10,320 ~-~-> 00:37:14,700 2219 -on the low is 6434 and seventh with that so you can do a 2220 - 2221 -556 2222 -00:37:14,700 ~-~-> 00:37:20,850 2223 -stop at 6430. Okay, so here's your stop 6430 darker colors 2224 - 2225 -557 2226 -00:37:20,850 ~-~-> 00:37:28,170 2227 -and agency. So, your stock could be at 6430. So your stock 2228 - 2229 -558 2230 -00:37:28,170 ~-~-> 00:37:33,750 2231 -could be at 6430. Your entry could be at the 62% retracement 2232 - 2233 -559 2234 -00:37:33,750 ~-~-> 00:37:38,190 2235 -level is 6449 and seven bets. So basically we can just 2236 - 2237 -560 2238 -00:37:38,190 ~-~-> 00:37:42,720 2239 -simply say if a trace is 6450 you can be a buyer. Okay, cuz 2240 - 2241 -561 2242 -00:37:42,720 ~-~-> 00:37:47,400 2243 -you're gonna look for the institutional level and the lower 2244 - 2245 -562 2246 -00:37:47,400 ~-~-> 00:37:51,240 2247 -you get down into the 700 retracement level, the less likely 2248 - 2249 -563 2250 -00:37:51,240 ~-~-> 00:37:54,030 2251 -you're going to get your fill because you demand 79% 2252 - 2253 -564 2254 -00:37:54,030 ~-~-> 00:37:56,700 2255 -retracement level here you may or may not get that with the 2256 - 2257 -565 2258 -00:37:56,700 ~-~-> 00:38:00,720 2259 -spread. Okay so what I like to use is 60% trade level and 2260 - 2261 -566 2262 -00:38:00,720 ~-~-> 00:38:03,540 2263 -then maybe factor in the spread there. But if you're using 2264 - 2265 -567 2266 -00:38:03,540 ~-~-> 00:38:07,680 2267 -62, generally it's a little bit more forgiving. Because you 2268 - 2269 -568 2270 -00:38:07,680 ~-~-> 00:38:10,650 2271 -don't need to add always in my, in my experience using 60% 2272 - 2273 -569 2274 -00:38:10,650 ~-~-> 00:38:14,790 2275 -tracing level, you can absolutely get it because you're 2276 - 2277 -570 2278 -00:38:14,790 ~-~-> 00:38:18,120 2279 -going to dip even further generally into the 70 and a half. 2280 - 2281 -571 2282 -00:38:18,420 ~-~-> 00:38:20,820 2283 -And sometimes it is sometimes trade some level but that's 2284 - 2285 -572 2286 -00:38:20,820 ~-~-> 00:38:26,760 2287 -our range price and this is our time window. So the fact 2288 - 2289 -573 2290 -00:38:26,760 ~-~-> 00:38:32,520 2291 -that we're looking at this specific area, if we use a limit 2292 - 2293 -574 2294 -00:38:32,520 ~-~-> 00:38:35,550 2295 -order at 62% retracement level, if it trades below that 2296 - 2297 -575 2298 -00:38:35,550 ~-~-> 00:38:38,700 2299 -you're filled, your stock would be placed here and then 2300 - 2301 -576 2302 -00:38:38,700 ~-~-> 00:38:46,740 2303 -using the fib levels. Point 54.5 negative 0.5 rather, this 2304 - 2305 -577 2306 -00:38:46,740 ~-~-> 00:38:52,050 2307 -is an area where you take first profit if it allows you if 2308 - 2309 -578 2310 -00:38:52,050 ~-~-> 00:38:57,030 2311 -it allows you 15 pips or more. Okay, so there's your rules 2312 - 2313 -579 2314 -00:38:57,120 ~-~-> 00:39:03,030 2315 -you want to take 15 pips at first scalp exit to negative 0.5 2316 - 2317 -580 2318 -00:39:03,030 ~-~-> 00:39:06,960 2319 -level, and then the negative one level, which would be one 2320 - 2321 -581 2322 -00:39:06,960 ~-~-> 00:39:10,530 2323 -standard deviation of the range that you calculate for your 2324 - 2325 -582 2326 -00:39:10,530 ~-~-> 00:39:13,170 2327 -fib. So now what you're drawing your low to your high here, 2328 - 2329 -583 2330 -00:39:13,590 ~-~-> 00:39:18,630 2331 -that range here if it's duplicated, and basically projected 2332 - 2333 -584 2334 -00:39:18,630 ~-~-> 00:39:22,860 2335 -higher, a measured move of that would be this level up here. 2336 - 2337 -585 2338 -00:39:23,340 ~-~-> 00:39:26,130 2339 -Now, since we have that, since it's suggesting here in the 2340 - 2341 -586 2342 -00:39:26,130 ~-~-> 00:39:33,180 2343 -fib, it's 0.6513 and five PIP bets. We want the highest 2344 - 2345 -587 2346 -00:39:33,180 ~-~-> 00:39:36,780 2347 -degree of probability for our Global's for scaling and 2348 - 2349 -588 2350 -00:39:36,780 ~-~-> 00:39:39,630 2351 -taking profits. This would be an area where we can take 2352 - 2353 -589 2354 -00:39:39,630 ~-~-> 00:39:43,890 2355 -profits again. So first scaling would be here at negative 2356 - 2357 -590 2358 -00:39:43,890 ~-~-> 00:39:49,710 2359 -0.5. But the minimum expectation is 15 pips, so you have to 2360 - 2361 -591 2362 -00:39:49,710 ~-~-> 00:39:53,520 2363 -be able to get 15 pips. You can't get 15 pips here, but you 2364 - 2365 -592 2366 -00:39:53,520 ~-~-> 00:39:56,760 2367 -can get it here or more than this is where you would take 2368 - 2369 -593 2370 -00:39:56,760 ~-~-> 00:40:02,160 2371 -first profit. Okay, here is just One level we read expect 2372 - 2373 -594 2374 -00:40:02,160 ~-~-> 00:40:06,960 2375 -it. In this instance here we can see at 6450 or so getting 2376 - 2377 -595 2378 -00:40:06,960 ~-~-> 00:40:15,630 2379 -out at 6493. That's 43 pips almost 43 pips of potential 2380 - 2381 -596 2382 -00:40:15,630 ~-~-> 00:40:17,640 2383 -profit at first scaling. 2384 - 2385 -597 2386 -00:40:19,529 ~-~-> 00:40:26,909 2387 -The next level up here would be 6513, and five, but it may 2388 - 2389 -598 2390 -00:40:26,909 ~-~-> 00:40:29,759 2391 -not get to these levels. Again, Fibonacci is not the answer 2392 - 2393 -599 2394 -00:40:29,759 ~-~-> 00:40:32,399 2395 -to everything in the marketplace. Even though this is giving 2396 - 2397 -600 2398 -00:40:32,399 ~-~-> 00:40:37,379 2399 -you a general rule principle, and in theory, it's going to 2400 - 2401 -601 2402 -00:40:37,379 ~-~-> 00:40:41,579 2403 -get you very, very close to some really sweet setups do not 2404 - 2405 -602 2406 -00:40:41,579 ~-~-> 00:40:45,269 2407 -demand that the price reaches to these levels for your 2408 - 2409 -603 2410 -00:40:45,269 ~-~-> 00:40:48,149 2411 -targets. What I do and this is how I teach my students as 2412 - 2413 -604 2414 -00:40:48,149 ~-~-> 00:40:52,139 2415 -well, if this is the fifth level that we're looking for, 2416 - 2417 -605 2418 -00:40:52,439 ~-~-> 00:40:56,249 2419 -okay, in other words, if your calculations suggest that this 2420 - 2421 -606 2422 -00:40:56,249 ~-~-> 00:41:00,179 2423 -is what the range level for negative one would be, The 2424 - 2425 -607 2426 -00:41:00,179 ~-~-> 00:41:09,389 2427 -projection 6510 is the nearest 10 level without getting up 2428 - 2429 -608 2430 -00:41:09,389 ~-~-> 00:41:12,329 2431 -to that level. So what we're doing is we're rounding down to 2432 - 2433 -609 2434 -00:41:12,329 ~-~-> 00:41:15,809 2435 -the next 10 level. Okay, so wherever this level would be, 2436 - 2437 -610 2438 -00:41:15,809 ~-~-> 00:41:20,699 2439 -say it was 15, it would still be 6510 for me, so I'd be 2440 - 2441 -611 2442 -00:41:20,699 ~-~-> 00:41:25,469 2443 -looking to take profit, or scaling out here. If this level 2444 - 2445 -612 2446 -00:41:25,469 ~-~-> 00:41:29,519 2447 -was at 15 or more pips, this would be my first scaling from 2448 - 2449 -613 2450 -00:41:29,519 ~-~-> 00:41:35,879 2451 -my entry down here at 6450. So 6450 was my limit on entry 2452 - 2453 -614 2454 -00:41:36,539 ~-~-> 00:41:42,989 2455 -for general principles, and the stop would be 6430. So it's 2456 - 2457 -615 2458 -00:41:42,989 ~-~-> 00:41:48,179 2459 -a 20 PIP stop. And, again, forget risk reward. We're not 2460 - 2461 -616 2462 -00:41:48,179 ~-~-> 00:41:50,549 2463 -teaching that don't think it has to be three to one, it has 2464 - 2465 -617 2466 -00:41:50,549 ~-~-> 00:41:54,419 2467 -to be five to one. If it's one to one, it's still good. In 2468 - 2469 -618 2470 -00:41:54,419 ~-~-> 00:41:57,089 2471 -my opinion, it's good because if you have a setup that 2472 - 2473 -619 2474 -00:41:57,089 ~-~-> 00:41:59,489 2475 -repeats over and over and over again very frequently, I 2476 - 2477 -620 2478 -00:41:59,489 ~-~-> 00:42:01,559 2479 -understand that Except the fact I'm not going to be a winner 2480 - 2481 -621 2482 -00:42:01,559 ~-~-> 00:42:04,349 2483 -on every single trade, I'm going to take losses. But if I 2484 - 2485 -622 2486 -00:42:04,349 ~-~-> 00:42:09,179 2487 -have a system that doesn't require me to spend a lot of 2488 - 2489 -623 2490 -00:42:09,179 ~-~-> 00:42:13,259 2491 -money when I'm losing, but I do have a high frequency of 2492 - 2493 -624 2494 -00:42:13,619 ~-~-> 00:42:17,519 2495 -accuracy. And if you look at this, you'll determine if this 2496 - 2497 -625 2498 -00:42:17,519 ~-~-> 00:42:20,279 2499 -does or doesn't have a lot of accuracy. But nonetheless, by 2500 - 2501 -626 2502 -00:42:20,279 ~-~-> 00:42:24,779 2503 -looking at and studying it, with this logic behind it, it's 2504 - 2505 -627 2506 -00:42:24,779 ~-~-> 00:42:28,139 2507 -not the fib that's creating it. The logic is we've traded 2508 - 2509 -628 2510 -00:42:28,139 ~-~-> 00:42:31,019 2511 -above the previous day's high in a relatively bullish 2512 - 2513 -629 2514 -00:42:31,049 ~-~-> 00:42:36,449 2515 -scenario. So we're lending well on this example for bias but 2516 - 2517 -630 2518 -00:42:36,449 ~-~-> 00:42:39,569 2519 -it doesn't require bias if you blow up the previous day's 2520 - 2521 -631 2522 -00:42:39,569 ~-~-> 00:42:42,449 2523 -high or block the previous day's low. You still look for 2524 - 2525 -632 2526 -00:42:42,449 ~-~-> 00:42:46,919 2527 -these general theories to pan out. And again, it's not about 2528 - 2529 -633 2530 -00:42:46,919 ~-~-> 00:42:48,719 2531 -right or wrong. You're not supposed to be taking live trades 2532 - 2533 -634 2534 -00:42:48,719 ~-~-> 00:42:50,789 2535 -with this. I'm not enticing you to take trades with this. 2536 - 2537 -635 2538 -00:42:51,089 ~-~-> 00:42:54,599 2539 -I'm teaching you how to read the tape, how to read the price 2540 - 2541 -636 2542 -00:42:54,599 ~-~-> 00:42:59,339 2543 -action and forecast setups that will repeat if you know what 2544 - 2545 -637 2546 -00:42:59,339 ~-~-> 00:43:04,229 2547 -you're looking for. So, first profit here we could take 2548 - 2549 -638 2550 -00:43:04,259 ~-~-> 00:43:08,339 2551 -obviously at 93, and eight that that's, that's 40 plus pips 2552 - 2553 -639 2554 -00:43:08,369 ~-~-> 00:43:12,359 2555 -so that definitely will meet the minimum criteria 15 pips 2556 - 2557 -640 2558 -00:43:12,359 ~-~-> 00:43:15,569 2559 -before for scaling. And then you can get another scaling out 2560 - 2561 -641 2562 -00:43:15,599 ~-~-> 00:43:20,279 2563 -at 6510, which has rounded down to from the fib level here, 2564 - 2565 -642 2566 -00:43:20,429 ~-~-> 00:43:23,249 2567 -it can hit this fib level or can go through it a little bit 2568 - 2569 -643 2570 -00:43:23,249 ~-~-> 00:43:25,769 2571 -more. And that's fine. This is where you would take your 2572 - 2573 -644 2574 -00:43:25,769 ~-~-> 00:43:31,409 2575 -next level of profit taking. If you can get first scaling, 2576 - 2577 -645 2578 -00:43:32,009 ~-~-> 00:43:35,249 2579 -where it's 15 pips or more, you want to start reducing your 2580 - 2581 -646 2582 -00:43:35,279 ~-~-> 00:43:39,239 2583 -your risk on your stop to about midpoint of the range that 2584 - 2585 -647 2586 -00:43:39,239 ~-~-> 00:43:41,669 2587 -you identified here. Because if it comes back down into 2588 - 2589 -648 2590 -00:43:41,669 ~-~-> 00:43:43,649 2591 -that, it's generally not a good idea to hold on to the 2592 - 2593 -649 2594 -00:43:43,649 ~-~-> 00:43:46,769 2595 -trade. Let let it stop you out. You've taken something 2596 - 2597 -650 2598 -00:43:46,829 ~-~-> 00:43:50,939 2599 -partial, and then you reduced your risk. And then if it 2600 - 2601 -651 2602 -00:43:50,939 ~-~-> 00:43:53,009 2603 -comes back down and stops you out, you've taken something 2604 - 2605 -652 2606 -00:43:53,039 ~-~-> 00:43:56,849 2607 -off the bone you got a bite of flesh, and if it comes back 2608 - 2609 -653 2610 -00:43:56,849 ~-~-> 00:43:58,889 2611 -down, you didn't get stopped out with a loss. That's in 2612 - 2613 -654 2614 -00:43:58,889 ~-~-> 00:44:01,589 2615 -theory, what we're saying Hear. And if it gets second 2616 - 2617 -655 2618 -00:44:03,149 ~-~-> 00:44:06,209 2619 -scaling, if you ever get a second scaling, you have to be 2620 - 2621 -656 2622 -00:44:06,209 ~-~-> 00:44:09,299 2623 -above your entry point, at least two or three pips and just 2624 - 2625 -657 2626 -00:44:09,419 ~-~-> 00:44:14,699 2627 -let it go. Okay, so that way you've gotten two pieces of 2628 - 2629 -658 2630 -00:44:14,699 ~-~-> 00:44:17,009 2631 -meat off the bone. And now you're in a position where your 2632 - 2633 -659 2634 -00:44:17,009 ~-~-> 00:44:20,459 2635 -stop should, in theory protect you from taking a loss. On 2636 - 2637 -660 2638 -00:44:20,459 ~-~-> 00:44:22,769 2639 -the remaining balance, it does not mean you can't take a 2640 - 2641 -661 2642 -00:44:22,769 ~-~-> 00:44:26,429 2643 -loss because you can, as long as the trades open, you are 2644 - 2645 -662 2646 -00:44:26,909 ~-~-> 00:44:31,469 2647 -inviting risk, and the market can always get down or above 2648 - 2649 -663 2650 -00:44:31,679 ~-~-> 00:44:35,069 2651 -your stop loss and that's just life. Okay, and a lot of 2652 - 2653 -664 2654 -00:44:35,069 ~-~-> 00:44:37,289 2655 -people don't realize that they're listening to people 2656 - 2657 -665 2658 -00:44:37,289 ~-~-> 00:44:40,409 2659 -online. Oh, my stops gonna do my job. Nope, not always 2660 - 2661 -666 2662 -00:44:40,439 ~-~-> 00:44:44,729 2663 -assist. That's the best case scenario. And sometimes the 2664 - 2665 -667 2666 -00:44:44,729 ~-~-> 00:44:49,169 2667 -best case scenario doesn't work out. So we can see how price 2668 - 2669 -668 2670 -00:44:49,169 ~-~-> 00:44:52,619 2671 -eventually makes a run up into 6510. 2672 - 2673 -669 2674 -00:44:54,990 ~-~-> 00:44:57,810 2675 -Right, Derek gives us a nice little opportunity to scale off 2676 - 2677 -670 2678 -00:44:58,110 ~-~-> 00:45:03,210 2679 -10 pips. I'm sorry. 6510 which is three and a half pips 2680 - 2681 -671 2682 -00:45:03,210 ~-~-> 00:45:06,480 2683 -below where the fib projected to, but that does not mean 2684 - 2685 -672 2686 -00:45:06,480 ~-~-> 00:45:09,180 2687 -collapse the trade. Okay? It doesn't mean get out of the 2688 - 2689 -673 2690 -00:45:09,180 ~-~-> 00:45:13,080 2691 -trade leave a little bit on. So the again, the assumption is 2692 - 2693 -674 2694 -00:45:13,110 ~-~-> 00:45:15,660 2695 -when your paper trading this or if you're a demo trading and 2696 - 2697 -675 2698 -00:45:15,690 ~-~-> 00:45:19,260 2699 -you want to use a lot size that allows you to have multiple, 2700 - 2701 -676 2702 -00:45:19,380 ~-~-> 00:45:22,860 2703 -in my case, I like to look for leverage that allows me to 2704 - 2705 -677 2706 -00:45:22,860 ~-~-> 00:45:27,210 2707 -take three partials and then give me something to let run. 2708 - 2709 -678 2710 -00:45:27,840 ~-~-> 00:45:31,920 2711 -That means I can get four stages of scaling out of that 2712 - 2713 -679 2714 -00:45:31,950 ~-~-> 00:45:34,980 2715 -position. Not all positions will allow me to do that. And 2716 - 2717 -680 2718 -00:45:34,980 ~-~-> 00:45:37,800 2719 -here's the thing. If it doesn't let me do that. I don't take 2720 - 2721 -681 2722 -00:45:37,800 ~-~-> 00:45:41,370 2723 -that trade. So I've given you something bonus in here, where 2724 - 2725 -682 2726 -00:45:41,370 ~-~-> 00:45:47,280 2727 -it helps me determine with a decision based process and, and 2728 - 2729 -683 2730 -00:45:47,280 ~-~-> 00:45:51,030 2731 -protocols that leads to me getting into a trade. There's 2732 - 2733 -684 2734 -00:45:51,030 ~-~-> 00:45:55,050 2735 -lots of times I see moves coming, and I can see them for me, 2736 - 2737 -685 2738 -00:45:55,200 ~-~-> 00:45:57,450 2739 -I can see exactly when they're going to turn exactly where 2740 - 2741 -686 2742 -00:45:57,450 ~-~-> 00:46:00,720 2743 -they're likely to go, but I'm not in them because They don't 2744 - 2745 -687 2746 -00:46:00,720 ~-~-> 00:46:05,100 2747 -meet all the criteria that I demand of my setups. So there's 2748 - 2749 -688 2750 -00:46:05,100 ~-~-> 00:46:09,390 2751 -nothing wrong with being very, very dependent on your rules 2752 - 2753 -689 2754 -00:46:09,390 ~-~-> 00:46:11,640 2755 -and only executing in that it's actually a good thing. It 2756 - 2757 -690 2758 -00:46:11,640 ~-~-> 00:46:16,020 2759 -builds discipline, it builds maturity as a trader, and you 2760 - 2761 -691 2762 -00:46:16,020 ~-~-> 00:46:20,640 2763 -will not be shaken by a lot of the things that a trader that 2764 - 2765 -692 2766 -00:46:20,640 ~-~-> 00:46:23,430 2767 -doesn't have rule based ideas that sticks to them very 2768 - 2769 -693 2770 -00:46:23,430 ~-~-> 00:46:27,720 2771 -rigid. Will they will generally be encountering a lot more 2772 - 2773 -694 2774 -00:46:27,750 ~-~-> 00:46:33,480 2775 -stress, anxiety, because they're always guessing as to what 2776 - 2777 -695 2778 -00:46:33,480 ~-~-> 00:46:35,970 2779 -they should be doing versus this is what I'm doing. This is 2780 - 2781 -696 2782 -00:46:35,970 ~-~-> 00:46:37,920 2783 -the time of day I'm doing it. And I'm looking forward to go 2784 - 2785 -697 2786 -00:46:37,920 ~-~-> 00:46:40,380 2787 -long. I'm looking for it to go short. If it doesn't fit the 2788 - 2789 -698 2790 -00:46:40,380 ~-~-> 00:46:44,850 2791 -criteria, you don't do anything. And you let it go. And 2792 - 2793 -699 2794 -00:46:44,850 ~-~-> 00:46:50,520 2795 -you'll see over weeks of time doing that. You'll, in theory, 2796 - 2797 -700 2798 -00:46:50,550 ~-~-> 00:46:54,600 2799 -protect yourself from taking from taking on more risk than 2800 - 2801 -701 2802 -00:46:54,600 ~-~-> 00:46:58,230 2803 -you're supposed to, or should and you're gonna be working 2804 - 2805 -702 2806 -00:46:58,230 ~-~-> 00:47:02,520 2807 -towards a perception of price action that is going to be 2808 - 2809 -703 2810 -00:47:02,550 ~-~-> 00:47:05,700 2811 -appreciated by you. And your bottom line and your results 2812 - 2813 -704 2814 -00:47:05,730 ~-~-> 00:47:09,060 2815 -will show that. But again, you're going to take losses, 2816 - 2817 -705 2818 -00:47:09,060 ~-~-> 00:47:12,180 2819 -you're going to get it wrong. This is not a magic recipe for 2820 - 2821 -706 2822 -00:47:12,180 ~-~-> 00:47:16,170 2823 -always winning trading, okay? It's just something to start 2824 - 2825 -707 2826 -00:47:16,170 ~-~-> 00:47:20,010 2827 -with. It's rule based, and you stick with it come hell or 2828 - 2829 -708 2830 -00:47:20,010 ~-~-> 00:47:24,540 2831 -high water. You do this for weeks, and you see if it pans 2832 - 2833 -709 2834 -00:47:24,540 ~-~-> 00:47:28,230 2835 -out and shows any kind of merit. And I promise you, if you 2836 - 2837 -710 2838 -00:47:28,230 ~-~-> 00:47:33,300 2839 -do this, you're going to see it. So the market comes up to 2840 - 2841 -711 2842 -00:47:33,300 ~-~-> 00:47:37,530 2843 -that 6510 level has a reaction retraces back down into some 2844 - 2845 -712 2846 -00:47:37,530 ~-~-> 00:47:41,490 2847 -overflow. And we want to keep something in and we want to 2848 - 2849 -713 2850 -00:47:41,490 ~-~-> 00:47:45,030 2851 -keep a leader in water, see if we can catch a runner. And 2852 - 2853 -714 2854 -00:47:45,030 ~-~-> 00:47:48,990 2855 -the fib will hopefully give us another level of importance. 2856 - 2857 -715 2858 -00:47:49,110 ~-~-> 00:47:56,370 2859 -And if we scrunch it down Okay, we have 6552 and nine PIP 2860 - 2861 -716 2862 -00:47:56,370 ~-~-> 00:48:00,720 2863 -bets. Okay, so that's the next level, which would be This 2864 - 2865 -717 2866 -00:48:00,720 ~-~-> 00:48:04,560 2867 -range two times, that's one of it here. And then the second 2868 - 2869 -718 2870 -00:48:04,560 ~-~-> 00:48:08,790 2871 -one here. So this is two standard deviations. This level in 2872 - 2873 -719 2874 -00:48:08,790 ~-~-> 00:48:11,250 2875 -here, generally if for day trading, if you ever get an 2876 - 2877 -720 2878 -00:48:11,250 ~-~-> 00:48:15,000 2879 -explosive move, I want to be out at this point here, and I'm 2880 - 2881 -721 2882 -00:48:15,000 ~-~-> 00:48:19,650 2883 -content with. If it runs more, I don't care. I'm not a long 2884 - 2885 -722 2886 -00:48:19,650 ~-~-> 00:48:22,230 2887 -term position trader, and it could continue for six months. 2888 - 2889 -723 2890 -00:48:22,230 ~-~-> 00:48:25,500 2891 -And everybody can say, Yeah, but you missed this it ICT and 2892 - 2893 -724 2894 -00:48:25,500 ~-~-> 00:48:28,320 2895 -it's I'm not interested, I could care less. I want 2896 - 2897 -725 2898 -00:48:28,620 ~-~-> 00:48:31,980 2899 -consistency. I want continuity. And I want the ability to be 2900 - 2901 -726 2902 -00:48:31,980 ~-~-> 00:48:34,110 2903 -able to see these things repeat over and over and over 2904 - 2905 -727 2906 -00:48:34,110 ~-~-> 00:48:39,510 2907 -again. trades, okay? For a neophyte are mysterious. They 2908 - 2909 -728 2910 -00:48:39,510 ~-~-> 00:48:42,390 2911 -sneak up on them, they surprise them. They're like, well, 2912 - 2913 -729 2914 -00:48:42,420 ~-~-> 00:48:44,430 2915 -what just happened? You ever noticed that when you get 2916 - 2917 -730 2918 -00:48:44,430 ~-~-> 00:48:49,740 2919 -online, and you see people on Twitter, Instagram, whatever, 2920 - 2921 -731 2922 -00:48:49,770 ~-~-> 00:48:54,150 2923 -okay. Yeah, any of these chat room things, these these trade 2924 - 2925 -732 2926 -00:48:54,150 ~-~-> 00:48:56,970 2927 -rooms, they're all like surprised Whoa, what happened with 2928 - 2929 -733 2930 -00:48:56,970 ~-~-> 00:48:59,550 2931 -the so and so and now they're only interested in that pair 2932 - 2933 -734 2934 -00:48:59,550 ~-~-> 00:49:04,740 2935 -or that mark? as it moved, you are not going to be 2936 - 2937 -735 2938 -00:49:04,740 ~-~-> 00:49:09,600 2939 -surprised. You're going to be anticipating, okay, you're 2940 - 2941 -736 2942 -00:49:09,600 ~-~-> 00:49:12,750 2943 -gonna be anticipating. And by anticipating things occurring 2944 - 2945 -737 2946 -00:49:12,780 ~-~-> 00:49:17,250 2947 -around a specific time of day around a rule based idea and a 2948 - 2949 -738 2950 -00:49:17,250 ~-~-> 00:49:19,650 2951 -pattern that you're familiar with, and seen over and over 2952 - 2953 -739 2954 -00:49:19,650 ~-~-> 00:49:22,740 2955 -again. Now let's go back to that analogy about buying a car 2956 - 2957 -740 2958 -00:49:22,920 ~-~-> 00:49:26,190 2959 -that you have a lot of affinity for. It's a sports car or 2960 - 2961 -741 2962 -00:49:26,190 ~-~-> 00:49:29,520 2963 -it's a luxury car. You like this car, you can't imagine 2964 - 2965 -742 2966 -00:49:29,520 ~-~-> 00:49:33,090 2967 -being anything else but the driver of that car and you buy 2968 - 2969 -743 2970 -00:49:33,090 ~-~-> 00:49:36,000 2971 -it, you bring it home. Remember, generally when you look 2972 - 2973 -744 2974 -00:49:36,000 ~-~-> 00:49:40,110 2975 -around, very soon after taking you home, you will start 2976 - 2977 -745 2978 -00:49:40,110 ~-~-> 00:49:42,450 2979 -seeing that car more because you have 2980 - 2981 -746 2982 -00:49:43,740 ~-~-> 00:49:49,710 2983 -activated your filter in your your attention, to elect to 2984 - 2985 -747 2986 -00:49:49,710 ~-~-> 00:49:54,330 2987 -let these cars, get your attention. Okay, and that's what 2988 - 2989 -748 2990 -00:49:54,330 ~-~-> 00:49:56,940 2991 -you're doing. You're teaching yourself to see this pattern 2992 - 2993 -749 2994 -00:49:56,970 ~-~-> 00:50:01,320 2995 -over and over and over again in price action and By default, 2996 - 2997 -750 2998 -00:50:01,770 ~-~-> 00:50:06,150 2999 -what happens is, when you start seeing it form live with 3000 - 3001 -751 3002 -00:50:06,150 ~-~-> 00:50:08,910 3003 -everything on your chart annotating the time of day, what 3004 - 3005 -752 3006 -00:50:08,910 ~-~-> 00:50:10,590 3007 -you're anticipating in terms of the direction that it's 3008 - 3009 -753 3010 -00:50:10,590 ~-~-> 00:50:13,470 3011 -supposed to expand up or down relative to the market being 3012 - 3013 -754 3014 -00:50:13,470 ~-~-> 00:50:16,500 3015 -bullish or bearish relative to it running the previous day's 3016 - 3017 -755 3018 -00:50:16,500 ~-~-> 00:50:22,440 3019 -high or low. You will see the pattern form live. And you'll 3020 - 3021 -756 3022 -00:50:22,440 ~-~-> 00:50:25,080 3023 -know what it looks like and you'll trust what you have 3024 - 3025 -757 3026 -00:50:25,080 ~-~-> 00:50:30,180 3027 -practice in hindsight, weeks and months of it. And now, when 3028 - 3029 -758 3030 -00:50:30,180 ~-~-> 00:50:33,690 3031 -you watch price action live, it'll be like, I see it. It's 3032 - 3033 -759 3034 -00:50:33,690 ~-~-> 00:50:38,310 3035 -right there. And you won't be surprised. You won't be taken 3036 - 3037 -760 3038 -00:50:38,310 ~-~-> 00:50:41,670 3039 -back like wow, where did that this come from? Price is 3040 - 3041 -761 3042 -00:50:41,670 ~-~-> 00:50:47,640 3043 -algorithmic. It repeats every single day on elements of time 3044 - 3045 -762 3046 -00:50:47,940 ~-~-> 00:50:52,230 3047 -and price. It does not work on magic Fibonacci, the 3048 - 3049 -763 3050 -00:50:52,230 ~-~-> 00:50:56,940 3051 -Fibonacci is just a way for me to frame the context. The use 3052 - 3053 -764 3054 -00:50:56,940 ~-~-> 00:51:00,990 3055 -this pattern, okay, I didn't reinvent flip nachi I'm not 3056 - 3057 -765 3058 -00:51:00,990 ~-~-> 00:51:04,200 3059 -trying to claim claim the three quarter pullback of a 3060 - 3061 -766 3062 -00:51:04,200 ~-~-> 00:51:09,810 3063 -Fibonacci is mine, the logic of using the fib with time and 3064 - 3065 -767 3066 -00:51:09,810 ~-~-> 00:51:12,180 3067 -the element of market structure that's me, that's my that's 3068 - 3069 -768 3070 -00:51:12,180 ~-~-> 00:51:15,900 3071 -why it's called optimal trade entry. OTS is an abbreviation 3072 - 3073 -769 3074 -00:51:15,900 ~-~-> 00:51:19,050 3075 -of those three words. What makes it optimal is it's 3076 - 3077 -770 3078 -00:51:19,050 ~-~-> 00:51:23,340 3079 -occurring at a time of day when the market will likely spool 3080 - 3081 -771 3082 -00:51:23,490 ~-~-> 00:51:26,580 3083 -in spread out in one particular direction over the other. So 3084 - 3085 -772 3086 -00:51:26,580 ~-~-> 00:51:30,240 3087 -it's more inclined to go higher or lower relative to the 3088 - 3089 -773 3090 -00:51:30,240 ~-~-> 00:51:34,230 3091 -things that I'm showing here. Alright, so anyway, so we have 3092 - 3093 -774 3094 -00:51:34,230 ~-~-> 00:51:37,260 3095 -two opportunities here for scaling one, two, and this is the 3096 - 3097 -775 3098 -00:51:37,260 ~-~-> 00:51:41,790 3099 -target where you would want to get out at the market trading 3100 - 3101 -776 3102 -00:51:41,790 ~-~-> 00:51:46,020 3103 -right now. It's just about midpoint of that. And here, now 3104 - 3105 -777 3106 -00:51:46,020 ~-~-> 00:51:49,260 3107 -you can use this midpoint, which I don't have a fib. If you 3108 - 3109 -778 3110 -00:51:49,260 ~-~-> 00:51:55,710 3111 -want to add a fib for that level, it would be negative 1.0 3112 - 3113 -779 3114 -00:51:56,520 ~-~-> 00:51:59,640 3115 -and that would give you a line right here. I just don't care 3116 - 3117 -780 3118 -00:51:59,640 ~-~-> 00:52:04,200 3119 -to have it. In this point where the market is running, you 3120 - 3121 -781 3122 -00:52:04,200 ~-~-> 00:52:08,580 3123 -want to have your stop loss below some point of support or 3124 - 3125 -782 3126 -00:52:08,580 ~-~-> 00:52:14,520 3127 -structure that would Yes, make your stop be part of a pool 3128 - 3129 -783 3130 -00:52:14,520 ~-~-> 00:52:17,400 3131 -of sell side liquidity or where a bank of sell stops would 3132 - 3133 -784 3134 -00:52:17,400 ~-~-> 00:52:21,600 3135 -be, but you have already in theory taken one or two portions 3136 - 3137 -785 3138 -00:52:21,630 ~-~-> 00:52:26,010 3139 -of profit out and your stock would just be above breakeven. 3140 - 3141 -786 3142 -00:52:26,040 ~-~-> 00:52:29,340 3143 -So you want to look at where you are in terms of the current 3144 - 3145 -787 3146 -00:52:29,340 ~-~-> 00:52:32,370 3147 -market structure. We had a run here it retraced and then 3148 - 3149 -788 3150 -00:52:32,370 ~-~-> 00:52:36,330 3151 -rallied up multiple turns lower, so retrace multiple times. 3152 - 3153 -789 3154 -00:52:36,930 ~-~-> 00:52:40,530 3155 -I like the idea of moving stock below here. Not below here. 3156 - 3157 -790 3158 -00:52:41,430 ~-~-> 00:52:45,660 3159 -Okay, not below here. Why? Because this one we already had a 3160 - 3161 -791 3162 -00:52:45,660 ~-~-> 00:52:49,500 3163 -run below these lows here and then we broke to new highs. We 3164 - 3165 -792 3166 -00:52:49,500 ~-~-> 00:52:52,740 3167 -had a retracement to this low and retracement to this low 3168 - 3169 -793 3170 -00:52:52,770 ~-~-> 00:52:56,250 3171 -which is basically the relative equal lows. So it could 3172 - 3173 -794 3174 -00:52:56,280 ~-~-> 00:53:00,120 3175 -still get below here. It could break down. Hit that They'll 3176 - 3177 -795 3178 -00:53:00,120 ~-~-> 00:53:02,880 3179 -go higher, longer term and I would miss out on that move, 3180 - 3181 -796 3182 -00:53:03,060 ~-~-> 00:53:07,350 3183 -just trying to choke the trade with a really, really tight 3184 - 3185 -797 3186 -00:53:07,350 ~-~-> 00:53:12,030 3187 -stop loss, which is not advisable. So we have this low 3188 - 3189 -798 3190 -00:53:12,030 ~-~-> 00:53:15,600 3191 -that's much more appropriate for trailing stop loss and not 3192 - 3193 -799 3194 -00:53:15,600 ~-~-> 00:53:19,950 3195 -jamming it up too tight and not giving the market room to 3196 - 3197 -800 3198 -00:53:19,950 ~-~-> 00:53:23,700 3199 -breathe, especially because we're tracing this on a five 3200 - 3201 -801 3202 -00:53:23,700 ~-~-> 00:53:27,300 3203 -minute chart. So the idea again, is we're looking for day 3204 - 3205 -802 3206 -00:53:27,300 ~-~-> 00:53:31,350 3207 -trades, and not hold this thing for four weeks, not even for 3208 - 3209 -803 3210 -00:53:31,350 ~-~-> 00:53:34,080 3211 -multiple days. But this is how you would manage your trade. 3212 - 3213 -804 3214 -00:53:34,080 ~-~-> 00:53:39,360 3215 -So if all this occurred inside of the same trading day or 3216 - 3217 -805 3218 -00:53:39,360 ~-~-> 00:53:43,470 3219 -same few hours, say it moves say all this movement here 3220 - 3221 -806 3222 -00:53:43,500 ~-~-> 00:53:46,770 3223 -occurred in a little bit less time. The same thing I'm 3224 - 3225 -807 3226 -00:53:46,770 ~-~-> 00:53:49,140 3227 -showing you here in terms of when you would move your stop 3228 - 3229 -808 3230 -00:53:49,710 ~-~-> 00:53:52,800 3231 -would be the same thing. This is we have a reaction and we 3232 - 3233 -809 3234 -00:53:52,800 ~-~-> 00:53:55,680 3235 -have two higher reactions. You don't want to put your stop 3236 - 3237 -810 3238 -00:53:55,680 ~-~-> 00:53:59,460 3239 -loss at the nearest area where stops would be everybody else 3240 - 3241 -811 3242 -00:53:59,460 ~-~-> 00:54:03,210 3243 -has their stop. loss below this low or here, mine would be 3244 - 3245 -812 3246 -00:54:03,210 ~-~-> 00:54:06,660 3247 -down here. And I already banked two positions or two 3248 - 3249 -813 3250 -00:54:06,660 ~-~-> 00:54:11,850 3251 -scalings. Okay, so if it gets to 6550 and nine PIP bets you 3252 - 3253 -814 3254 -00:54:11,850 ~-~-> 00:54:14,880 3255 -would collapse the entire trade and be done and be content 3256 - 3257 -815 3258 -00:54:14,880 ~-~-> 00:54:18,630 3259 -with that. So you would be so basically getting around 100 3260 - 3261 -816 3262 -00:54:18,630 ~-~-> 00:54:24,090 3263 -pips movement from this particular trade with three partials 3264 - 3265 -817 3266 -00:54:24,540 ~-~-> 00:54:29,550 3267 -or the final collapse here. Now if this level was higher up, 3268 - 3269 -818 3270 -00:54:30,450 ~-~-> 00:54:33,180 3271 -okay, so no matter if you weren't getting this range here, 3272 - 3273 -819 3274 -00:54:34,590 ~-~-> 00:54:38,820 3275 -and it allowed for 100 pips, but 100 pips occurs before the 3276 - 3277 -820 3278 -00:54:39,240 ~-~-> 00:54:41,910 3279 -two standard deviations of the initial range to create your 3280 - 3281 -821 3282 -00:54:41,910 ~-~-> 00:54:45,480 3283 -fib. So this is your range. This is one standard deviation 3284 - 3285 -822 3286 -00:54:45,480 ~-~-> 00:54:47,850 3287 -over here. And then the other standard deviation would be 3288 - 3289 -823 3290 -00:54:47,850 ~-~-> 00:54:54,090 3291 -here. If this level is above 100, pips, okay, and what's if 3292 - 3293 -824 3294 -00:54:54,090 ~-~-> 00:54:59,970 3295 -this range here was like 6562, nine, okay, that would be 3296 - 3297 -825 3298 -00:54:59,970 ~-~-> 00:55:04,740 3299 -awesome. 110 pips from your entry, you would take a partial 3300 - 3301 -826 3302 -00:55:04,740 ~-~-> 00:55:09,870 3303 -at 100 pips flat, simply just take 100 pips bank something 3304 - 3305 -827 3306 -00:55:09,870 ~-~-> 00:55:12,510 3307 -there as well. So there's your rules. It's very simple. 3308 - 3309 -828 3310 -00:55:12,810 ~-~-> 00:55:15,120 3311 -those rules I've given you if you missed it if you weren't 3312 - 3313 -829 3314 -00:55:15,120 ~-~-> 00:55:17,820 3315 -really taking those, go back and watch the video again and 3316 - 3317 -830 3318 -00:55:17,820 ~-~-> 00:55:21,990 3319 -listen very carefully, because I gave you very specific 3320 - 3321 -831 3322 -00:55:21,990 ~-~-> 00:55:26,310 3323 -criteria about when to move a stop, what entry price you 3324 - 3325 -832 3326 -00:55:26,310 ~-~-> 00:55:30,120 3327 -would look for where your stop loss would be, and where you 3328 - 3329 -833 3330 -00:55:30,120 ~-~-> 00:55:34,590 3331 -take partials. And when you graduate that stop and what you 3332 - 3333 -834 3334 -00:55:34,590 ~-~-> 00:55:38,970 3335 -avoid doing when moving the stop not trying to choke the 3336 - 3337 -835 3338 -00:55:38,970 ~-~-> 00:55:43,050 3339 -trade out by having a stop loss, you know, right under here, 3340 - 3341 -836 3342 -00:55:43,200 ~-~-> 00:55:45,780 3343 -or right under here or because this looks like it's support. 3344 - 3345 -837 3346 -00:55:45,810 ~-~-> 00:55:48,720 3347 -You know, there you go put your stop loss there. There's a 3348 - 3349 -838 3350 -00:55:48,720 ~-~-> 00:55:52,920 3351 -lot of people in this period now they have cell stops right 3352 - 3353 -839 3354 -00:55:52,920 ~-~-> 00:55:55,680 3355 -below here. They may have been lucky they went long here. 3356 - 3357 -840 3358 -00:55:55,680 ~-~-> 00:55:58,920 3359 -Maybe they went here, or they bought here and just wrote it 3360 - 3361 -841 3362 -00:55:58,920 ~-~-> 00:56:00,900 3363 -out because they only use Tough luck. But now they want to 3364 - 3365 -842 3366 -00:56:00,900 ~-~-> 00:56:03,750 3367 -put a stoploss in their thinking here. 3368 - 3369 -843 3370 -00:56:04,110 ~-~-> 00:56:08,070 3371 -Okay, so I use market structure to help me manage a trade 3372 - 3373 -844 3374 -00:56:08,610 ~-~-> 00:56:11,490 3375 -and market structure you can learn that it's on my YouTube 3376 - 3377 -845 3378 -00:56:11,490 ~-~-> 00:56:15,270 3379 -channel as well but this low here I want to put my stop at 3380 - 3381 -846 3382 -00:56:15,840 ~-~-> 00:56:20,760 3383 -this low and not something ultra super tight because just 3384 - 3385 -847 3386 -00:56:20,760 ~-~-> 00:56:25,560 3387 -normal gyrations okay or quick, sudden retracement lower and 3388 - 3389 -848 3390 -00:56:25,560 ~-~-> 00:56:29,160 3391 -still be viable for the trade going higher would knock you 3392 - 3393 -849 3394 -00:56:29,160 ~-~-> 00:56:31,890 3395 -out prematurely and you would miss the opportunity of 3396 - 3397 -850 3398 -00:56:31,950 ~-~-> 00:56:35,730 3399 -allowing yourself taking out 100 pips or where the second 3400 - 3401 -851 3402 -00:56:35,730 ~-~-> 00:56:37,980 3403 -standard deviation would be for your ultimate target. 3404 - 3405 -852 3406 -00:56:38,370 ~-~-> 00:56:42,210 3407 -Alright. So hopefully you guys got something from this, I'll 3408 - 3409 -853 3410 -00:56:42,210 ~-~-> 00:56:44,850 3411 -try to give you something every single day it will not be 3412 - 3413 -854 3414 -00:56:44,850 ~-~-> 00:56:48,510 3415 -this in depth. Okay, so the rules have been applied and 3416 - 3417 -855 3418 -00:56:48,540 ~-~-> 00:56:51,780 3419 -shared with you in this video. And I'll always refer back to 3420 - 3421 -856 3422 -00:56:51,780 ~-~-> 00:56:55,890 3423 -this video when there's any discussion about when stops 3424 - 3425 -857 3426 -00:56:55,890 ~-~-> 00:56:58,800 3427 -removed, how you take partials and what the general 3428 - 3429 -858 3430 -00:56:58,800 ~-~-> 00:57:03,600 3431 -principle of this pattern is okay. It'll be a five minute or 3432 - 3433 -859 3434 -00:57:03,600 ~-~-> 00:57:07,170 3435 -less many times that are probably less than four minutes 3436 - 3437 -860 3438 -00:57:07,200 ~-~-> 00:57:09,330 3439 -because this is going to be me saying, okay, here's your 3440 - 3441 -861 3442 -00:57:09,330 ~-~-> 00:57:13,320 3443 -chart. These are the levels. And here's what it looks like. 3444 - 3445 -862 3446 -00:57:13,350 ~-~-> 00:57:15,690 3447 -It'll be just all the annotation on the chart. And it'll be 3448 - 3449 -863 3450 -00:57:15,690 ~-~-> 00:57:19,440 3451 -me saying, take care. God bless and good luck good trading. 3452 - 3453 -864 3454 -00:57:20,400 ~-~-> 00:57:23,460 3455 -And with that, I'm going to close this one and do that very 3456 - 3457 -865 3458 -00:57:23,460 ~-~-> 00:57:25,200 3459 -thing. wish good luck and good trading.
