  1. 0:00Here are the trades that it has taken
  2. 0:02since Monday night till right now. In
  3. 0:05today's video, I'm going to show you RSI
  4. 0:07divergences on the 1-minute time frame
  5. 0:10and what the trades have looked like
  6. 0:12over the last few days. I believe I've
  7. 0:14finally been able to automate this
  8. 0:16strategy, but it's not fully there yet.
  9. 0:19In any case, I still want to document
  10. 0:21the process, so let's get into the
  11. 0:23charts. Okay, so just to keep this video
  12. 0:25shorter, I'm going to show you the
  13. 0:27trades that have occurred since midnight
  14. 0:29tonight. Today is Tuesday and what we're
  15. 0:31going to do is look at the RSI as well
  16. 0:34as price and find where price and RSI
  17. 0:37are diverging on this low time frame,
  18. 0:39the 1-minute. Now, because this is an
  19. 0:41automation, some of these do not meet my
  20. 0:44visual requirements, but so far it's
  21. 0:46working okay. Zooming into this first
  22. 0:48trade, you can clearly see price was
  23. 0:50making a higher high and the RSI was
  24. 0:52making a lower high. The first high
  25. 0:54being above the 70 range and the next
  26. 0:58high being below the 70 range. That is
  27. 1:00my secret sauce for divergences. Once
  28. 1:02you get a rejection candle, you set up a
  29. 1:04short position and because this is a
  30. 1:071-minute time frame, I'm only looking
  31. 1:09for tiny, tiny, tiny little pullbacks.
  32. 1:13I'm not expecting major swing trades or
  33. 1:15major retracements or major reversals
  34. 1:19based on the 1-minute time frame
  35. 1:20divergences. Higher time frame, yes, but
  36. 1:24because I want to get the volume of
  37. 1:25trading in to get a higher percentage
  38. 1:27return per week, I'm only looking for
  39. 1:30small moves. Anywhere between three and
  40. 1:32five pips is going to be my maximum
  41. 1:34here. Now, the next trade setup, this
  42. 1:36one I didn't like as much because I
  43. 1:38would have visually drawn these like
  44. 1:41this and this doesn't meet my
  45. 1:42requirements for an RSI divergence with
  46. 1:44my secret sauce recipe. The last high is
  47. 1:47actually still outside of the 70 range,
  48. 1:49but what the automation has done is
  49. 1:51actually measured a double top with a
  50. 1:54tolerance of 0.1 ATR right here And you
  51. 1:58can see that tiny little divergence in
  52. 2:01the middle of the chart. This did cause
  53. 2:03some drawdown, but it eventually went to
  54. 2:05the take profit. Next up, this one is
  55. 2:07much more clear. You can see that first
  56. 2:10lower low was outside of the 30 range,
  57. 2:12and then the next lower low was within
  58. 2:14the 70-30 range. This trade also went
  59. 2:17into some drawdown, but eventually hit
  60. 2:20the take profit level of three pips.
  61. 2:22Next up, again, another one I didn't
  62. 2:24really like, but because it met the
  63. 2:26requirements of the double top tolerance
  64. 2:28with 0.1 ATR, it actually measured this
  65. 2:31divergence right here. Again, went into
  66. 2:34some drawdown, but eventually hit the
  67. 2:37take profit area. Double bottom,
  68. 2:39RSI divergence outside the 30, inside
  69. 2:42the 30, and hit the take profit level.
  70. 2:44Now, this one was much bigger, and after
  71. 2:47this strong rejection candle, quick
  72. 2:49retracement, that one hit almost
  73. 2:50instantly, within 2 minutes. And
  74. 2:52currently, we are in another one. It
  75. 2:54measured this divergence right here as
  76. 2:57price made a higher high. We are
  77. 2:59currently in a bit of drawdown, but
  78. 3:01hopefully it will take the three-pip
  79. 3:03take profit level.
  80. 3:05Now, because this is an automation, and
  81. 3:06I'm still testing it, I'm leaving the
  82. 3:08stop loss much wider because the win
  83. 3:11rate right now is sitting at about 90%
  84. 3:13with a larger stop loss. Yes, the
  85. 3:15risk-to-reward ratio is kind of
  86. 3:17atrocious, but with such a good win
  87. 3:20rate, it might be worth testing
  88. 3:21long-term. Here are the trades that it
  89. 3:23has taken since Monday night till right
  90. 3:27now. And I think what I've learned from
  91. 3:29all of this development process of what
  92. 3:33I see on the charts and how I can
  93. 3:34actually translate it into a language a
  94. 3:37computer can understand, which then
  95. 3:39leads into the indicator. There's a
  96. 3:41massive benefit, but also a massive risk
  97. 3:44to this. The benefit is that it can
  98. 3:46trade while I'm asleep, not available,
  99. 3:49and does not make emotional decisions.
  100. 3:52The decisions that the system makes is
  101. 3:54based on mathematical computations that
  102. 3:58simply occur on the charts. And it is a
  103. 4:01pattern that I've recognized over years
  104. 4:03and years of day trading. Now, one of
  105. 4:04the main issues with it, as you saw on
  106. 4:06the charts, some of them don't really
  107. 4:08make sense to me visually. Others were
  108. 4:11completely absurd and I wouldn't have
  109. 4:12taken them. But, if that's the risk that
  110. 4:14I need to take in order to have more
  111. 4:17consistent winning trades that do follow
  112. 4:20all of my rules while freeing up my
  113. 4:22time, I believe this is a path worth
  114. 4:24going down. If you would like to try the
  115. 4:26same strategy, I did a full long video
  116. 4:29breakdown of the exact rules of my
  117. 4:32secret sauce RSI divergences. And if
  118. 4:35you'd like to not just test it on a demo
  119. 4:37account, but see if this would work in
  120. 4:39the live markets, there's a huge
  121. 4:41opportunity right now. I actually spent
  122. 4:43the last 30 days of my life negotiating
  123. 4:45with Funder Pro to allow only my
  124. 4:48audience to get a $1,000 funded account
  125. 4:52for a single dollar, which is less than
  126. 4:54a can of soda. So, if you just go to
  127. 4:55Funder Pro's website and use the code
  128. 4:58try one, it's open to anybody watching
  129. 5:01this video. And you can actually try
  130. 5:03trading these RSI divergences
  131. 5:06on a lower time frame once you've
  132. 5:08watched the tutorial on how to actually
  133. 5:10set up the trade according to my secret
  134. 5:12sauce. And if you want to learn that,
  135. 5:14that video is going to be right here.
  136. 5:15Thank you so much for joining me today.
  137. 5:17I really appreciate you guys and we will
  138. 5:18see you in the next one.
