  1. 0:00In today's video, I want to share with
  2. 0:01you guys two tips that really helped my
  3. 0:03trading. And the whole idea of this
  4. 0:05video was birthed from this post that I
  5. 0:07had posted to my story on Instagram. And
  6. 0:09it was just regarding gold. And so this
  7. 0:11video here is going to be explaining
  8. 0:12that trade. So let's get right into it.
  9. 0:14So this was a trade, well technically it
  10. 0:16was two trades. So I scalped it down to
  11. 0:18a certain point and then I bought it
  12. 0:19from that point too. And what I've done
  13. 0:21is I've posted both images so you can
  14. 0:22see the scalp down and then the move
  15. 0:24back up. So there's two things. The
  16. 0:26first thing I want to talk about is just
  17. 0:27understanding where price is going
  18. 0:29institutionally. One thing I like to do
  19. 0:30with this is I like to use institutional
  20. 0:32order flow. And in other words, what
  21. 0:34that just basically means is where are
  22. 0:35the institutions pouring in money where
  23. 0:37where are they getting into these
  24. 0:38trades? And so what I would do is this.
  25. 0:40In a bullish environment, I look at
  26. 0:42these sell candles here and I would
  27. 0:43expect price if price is going to
  28. 0:45retrace, I would expect it to retrace
  29. 0:47into this. If I'm bullish and I see
  30. 0:48price drop into a sell candle, this is
  31. 0:51when I'm looking to jump in. What I used
  32. 0:52to do, actually, let me tell you what I
  33. 0:54used to do. So I would look at something
  34. 0:55like this and think that oh price has to
  35. 0:58retrace all the way back down here. So
  36. 1:00let's just take from this low to this
  37. 1:01high. I would say look price has to
  38. 1:03retrace all the way down here. It has to
  39. 1:05retrace down here before moving higher.
  40. 1:07That's what I would always think. But
  41. 1:09this wasn't necessarily the case because
  42. 1:11most of the time you're not going to see
  43. 1:12price do a huge retracement all the way
  44. 1:14down. Sometimes it might just accumulate
  45. 1:16and go higher. And I've told you guys
  46. 1:17before price does not always have to
  47. 1:19retrace all the way down. It can
  48. 1:21accumulate, go sideways and then go
  49. 1:23higher. Both the retracement and the
  50. 1:24accumulation they're agenda does the
  51. 1:26same thing. You guys know I like to
  52. 1:27bring out this white board. Let's bring
  53. 1:28it out or the black board, whatever you
  54. 1:29want to call it. There's this kind of
  55. 1:31retracement and there's also this kind
  56. 1:33of
  57. 1:33retracement or there's that kind of
  58. 1:36retracement or accumulation of orders
  59. 1:37and this one here. So there's two types.
  60. 1:39The agenda behind this kind of
  61. 1:41retracement and agenda behind this kind
  62. 1:42of accumulation is the same thing. It's
  63. 1:44to accumulate orders to then run it
  64. 1:46later. So what do I mean by that? So
  65. 1:48price is bullish. This is a bullish
  66. 1:49environment. there's going to be money
  67. 1:51up here and then when price is dropping
  68. 1:53down, it's going to be making highs and
  69. 1:54lows like this. So, in other words,
  70. 1:56going to be money above all of these
  71. 1:57different highs before pushing up
  72. 1:59higher. So, they retrace to generate
  73. 2:02liquidity above these highs to then run
  74. 2:04it later. Same thing here. Look, this
  75. 2:06accumulation, the whole agenda behind
  76. 2:08that is to accumulate enough orders to
  77. 2:10then run it later. So, here's the money.
  78. 2:12Here's more money again. You see, they
  79. 2:14they manipulate the lows, expand higher,
  80. 2:17and then take out the money on top. I
  81. 2:19always thought it was this. Then I
  82. 2:21realized price also does this. So now
  83. 2:23this is why I look for both of these
  84. 2:25scenarios. Both of them. I don't know
  85. 2:27what I'm drawing here guys, but I'm
  86. 2:28drawing something. I look for both of
  87. 2:30these scenarios whenever I'm trading. So
  88. 2:31now if we bring it back to the chart in
  89. 2:33this scenario, price expanded higher,
  90. 2:35went sideways, and then expanded again.
  91. 2:38You see price accumulates orders,
  92. 2:39manipulates the lows, and then runs
  93. 2:41higher. Take out liquidity on the top up
  94. 2:43here. Now, this is where when price
  95. 2:45expands above these highs, obviously we
  96. 2:47know gold is a alltime high. So, really
  97. 2:49truly, you're not really picking tops or
  98. 2:50anything, but what you would do, what
  99. 2:52you would expect, where would the next
  100. 2:54best entry come from? Deep retracement
  101. 2:56entry would come from the sell candle.
  102. 2:58And so, what I like to do then is I know
  103. 3:00price is going to be drawn towards the
  104. 3:03sell candle. If it's not going to
  105. 3:05accumulate and go sideways, it's going
  106. 3:07to retrace and then expand higher. How
  107. 3:09do you know when it's going to happen?
  108. 3:10Sometimes price accumulates above a
  109. 3:12high. Sometimes price retraces above a
  110. 3:13high. In my eyes, it's not for you to
  111. 3:15know if it's going to accumulate or
  112. 3:17retrace. It's to respond when it
  113. 3:20happens. If I play the next candlestick,
  114. 3:22let's just go one forward. You can see
  115. 3:24price drops down into this area here. I
  116. 3:26believe there was news that took place.
  117. 3:28And when price is running down to this
  118. 3:29area here, this is how I was able to
  119. 3:31catch that scalp. So, if I go to the
  120. 3:3250-minut time frame real quick, before I
  121. 3:34go to the 50-minut time frame, actually,
  122. 3:35I'm going to go ahead and mark up this
  123. 3:37area here. We're going to mark up the
  124. 3:38high to low of this wick. You guys know
  125. 3:40I've spoken about this multiple times
  126. 3:41before. We're going to go to the high
  127. 3:42and the open of the wick. And so I've
  128. 3:44expanded out to right. You can see we
  129. 3:46dropped straight into it. So if I go to
  130. 3:48the 50-minut time frame, you can see
  131. 3:49price drops into our area. This is our
  132. 3:51area that we just identified. Why?
  133. 3:53Because we know whenever price drops
  134. 3:55into sell candles. If you are bullish,
  135. 3:57this is where you should be getting
  136. 3:58active. So in other words, news must
  137. 3:59have come out and you can see price is
  138. 4:01blatantly going towards this area here.
  139. 4:03I catch a little scalp down to this
  140. 4:04area. That's not necessarily what I'm
  141. 4:06talking about today. But this is how I
  142. 4:08knew price was going down here. I did
  143. 4:10not know price was going to get to this
  144. 4:13low until it started trading beneath
  145. 4:15these lows over here. Let's go ahead and
  146. 4:17mark up these lows. There's not no trend
  147. 4:18line we're marking up. We're just
  148. 4:19marking up all these lows. All these
  149. 4:21lows. I did not know price was going to
  150. 4:24get down here until it started trading
  151. 4:27beneath these lows. What happens is
  152. 4:29this. price could just accumulate going
  153. 4:30sideways and then expand up and I'll be
  154. 4:33looking to catch price if I'm not in
  155. 4:34already above these highs when price was
  156. 4:36trading beneath this low. Let's go to
  157. 4:38that 1 hour time frame. Let's just go up
  158. 4:40a little bit more. Look how nice and
  159. 4:42long this candle is. Nothing to do with
  160. 4:44how it engulfed this or engulfed that.
  161. 4:45I'm more so interested in it ran
  162. 4:47liquidity. It ran all that money beneath
  163. 4:49here. And so when price is trading
  164. 4:51beneath this low, this is when I can
  165. 4:53start to expect price to get even lower
  166. 4:56into that wick of the sell candle on on
  167. 4:59the daily time frame. So this is how I
  168. 5:00was able to understand that price or
  169. 5:03know that price is going to drop down to
  170. 5:05here cuz really and truly nobody knows
  171. 5:07whether price is going to accumulate and
  172. 5:08expand or retrace and expand. If price
  173. 5:11stayed above above these lows, then I
  174. 5:13expect price to expand higher. And in
  175. 5:15this scenario, news helped especially
  176. 5:17before that manipulation manipulated
  177. 5:19price into these lows. That was the
  178. 5:20first thing understanding where that
  179. 5:22drawn price is and sometimes these
  180. 5:24downward plays act as a draw on price.
  181. 5:27There's lots of draw down in these
  182. 5:29downward moves. This is where mitigation
  183. 5:31will take place when price drops into
  184. 5:33the sell candle. And then when it comes
  185. 5:34to institutional order flow as well,
  186. 5:36this is most likely where the larger
  187. 5:37players are getting involved at these
  188. 5:39lows. So understanding that,
  189. 5:41understanding where price is going is
  190. 5:42vitally important. Knowing when to pick
  191. 5:45whether it's going to retrace or whether
  192. 5:46it's going to accumulate is also very
  193. 5:48important too. And then one other thing
  194. 5:50I wanted to talk about as well was this.
  195. 5:52When price gets to your area, what do
  196. 5:55you do? So let's go back to the daily
  197. 5:56time frame before I move on. That was
  198. 5:58just explaining why I expected price to
  199. 6:00drop down into these lows. It had
  200. 6:02confirmed it for me. So then I play out
  201. 6:04the rest. I play the movie. I I run the
  202. 6:07play and let get all the way down here.
  203. 6:09Moving on to the second portion of this
  204. 6:11video is understanding how to get in
  205. 6:13from these lows. Even just regarding
  206. 6:14that, you'll definitely need a broker
  207. 6:15that you'll be able to use tight spreads
  208. 6:17and a reputable broker. I use IC
  209. 6:19Markets. They've been blessed. That was
  210. 6:20literally the only broker I've ever used
  211. 6:22from the very beginning and I've had no
  212. 6:24issues with them. So, if you want to get
  213. 6:25involved in my broker, get them tight
  214. 6:26spreads and those quick withdrawals. Go
  215. 6:28ahead and hit the link in my bio and get
  216. 6:29active. Now, moving on. So, now when it
  217. 6:31comes to entries, like I said, make sure
  218. 6:33you have a broker that's decent. I like
  219. 6:35to use raw spreads because I like to get
  220. 6:36in as and when price is where it is at.
  221. 6:39But in this area here, what I like to do
  222. 6:41is this. This is how I would refine the
  223. 6:42area. I would literally take a fib tool,
  224. 6:45take it from the high of that wick and
  225. 6:46take it to the low, extend it out to the
  226. 6:48right. And then I'm going to go down to
  227. 6:50the 15. Just so you can see this area
  228. 6:52here. And I would look to enter when
  229. 6:54price taps into this upper portion of
  230. 6:56the wick. And if you wanted to, if we
  231. 6:58wanted to refine the area even more, so
  232. 7:00anywhere within that 50% line to the
  233. 7:03very highest point of that wick, which
  234. 7:04is over here, let's go ahead and move it
  235. 7:05like this in here. This is where I'm
  236. 7:08looking to enter. Let's go ahead and
  237. 7:10bring out the ruler tool. Mark it up
  238. 7:11from the low to the high down here. It's
  239. 7:14around 40 pips. So for me then, this is
  240. 7:17what I would do next because I'm not
  241. 7:19looking to jump in from the high and
  242. 7:20have a 40 pip stop loss near about 50%
  243. 7:23of there. I'm going to break it down
  244. 7:25again. And I know I don't need a fib
  245. 7:26tool for this, but I'm just going to
  246. 7:27just do it anyway. And then what I'm
  247. 7:29going to do then is, and this is only if
  248. 7:31you are comfortable. This is the more
  249. 7:33riskier entry. And look, it's on you
  250. 7:37guys if you want to try and take
  251. 7:38something like this. But this is one
  252. 7:39that I really like to take. And I also
  253. 7:40take the next one, too. But let's just
  254. 7:42show you this one first. I'm going to
  255. 7:43show you two types of entries. The fact
  256. 7:45that price dipped into this area is all
  257. 7:48the confirmation I need. I don't need
  258. 7:50anything extra after this. So when
  259. 7:52people talk about what confirmations you
  260. 7:53have that the fact that it dropped into
  261. 7:55my area where I expect price to rally
  262. 7:57from is all the confirmation I need. So
  263. 7:59I'm looking to enter from the upper
  264. 8:01portion. That's it. Now if I wanted to
  265. 8:04refine this entry even more cuz like I
  266. 8:07said 40 pips is a is a is a crazy note.
  267. 8:10Okay. There's no way I'm looking to
  268. 8:11enter and have a 40 pip stop loss. I'm
  269. 8:14going to break that area into another
  270. 8:16half. So in other words that's a
  271. 8:17quarter. a quarter, a half, three
  272. 8:20quarters, and that's the full range. So,
  273. 8:21I'll break it into a quarter again, and
  274. 8:23when price taps into the quarter mark,
  275. 8:26that's when I'm looking to enter. I
  276. 8:27would have a stop loss beneath here. So,
  277. 8:29roughly about this would be would have
  278. 8:30been about a 20 pip stop loss. And I
  279. 8:32know some people are like, oh, 20 pips,
  280. 8:34you know, quite large, but for gold, 20
  281. 8:36pips is not a large stop loss. Well, and
  282. 8:38don't forget, I'm looking to enter from
  283. 8:39a daily play. Entering from a daily play
  284. 8:42is different to just entering off a one
  285. 8:43minute play. So, that's the first entry
  286. 8:45when price tapped into it. And let's
  287. 8:47just look at this. From the quarter mark
  288. 8:49to where it actually dropped to, it was
  289. 8:50only 11 pips. Absolute minor. If you are
  290. 8:53not comfortable with price dropping and
  291. 8:56you entering, you're going to look for a
  292. 8:57different kind of entry. And like I
  293. 8:59said, this one is the more riskier one.
  294. 9:00So, I would understand why you wouldn't
  295. 9:02want to enter from there. But check it
  296. 9:04out. This is going to be the less
  297. 9:06riskier play. This is what we was
  298. 9:07looking at. I'm going to go ahead and
  299. 9:08expand this and move it up. So, this is
  300. 9:10the area we was looking at. What you
  301. 9:12would do is this. You would look for the
  302. 9:13down close candle. So from this high to
  303. 9:16this low is a institutional candle.
  304. 9:19Institutional candle. And when price
  305. 9:21runs above, rallies above the
  306. 9:23institutional candle, this is what
  307. 9:25you're looking at as your confirmation.
  308. 9:27Once you get that as a confirmation that
  309. 9:28we're going to be going up to the
  310. 9:29upside, then what you want to do is you
  311. 9:31want to catch a retracement entry back
  312. 9:33into the institutional candle or into
  313. 9:36the fair value gap. So here you can see
  314. 9:38there's a fair value gap right here. an
  315. 9:39era of inefficiency where price rallied
  316. 9:41above the high large sell candle, no buy
  317. 9:45candles along the way as price is
  318. 9:46running up higher. This is your fair
  319. 9:48value gap. You would enter from the fair
  320. 9:50value gap. But guess what? Once again,
  321. 9:51like I said, you know this fair value
  322. 9:53gap, let's go ahead and mark it up. It's
  323. 9:55from this high. Let's see if we can get
  324. 9:56this high to this low about 36 pips. So,
  325. 9:59what you would do again, if you're not
  326. 10:01comfortable with that, which I am not, I
  327. 10:03would just go ahead and mark up this F
  328. 10:04value gap. Mark up in in half. And all I
  329. 10:07would do is I would enter in from the
  330. 10:09upper portion of the fair value gap. And
  331. 10:11so in other words, if I'm entering from
  332. 10:13the upper portion, most likely 50% of
  333. 10:16that fair value gap here and then I'll
  334. 10:18put my stop loss beneath the the fair
  335. 10:20value gap well out of the way. And once
  336. 10:22again, this would be your type of entry.
  337. 10:24And then what you could do after that is
  338. 10:25you can run it either if you're
  339. 10:27confident and you want to hold it to a
  340. 10:28daily play. Let's go to the 1 hour time
  341. 10:30frame. I was telling my mentees to to
  342. 10:32jump out of it when price was in here.
  343. 10:34Price was literally at these highs. I
  344. 10:36was I I'll tell them this is a good
  345. 10:38point to jump out, you know, but you
  346. 10:40don't have to wait for price to get all
  347. 10:41the way up here. So, let's just go ahead
  348. 10:43and take out the ruler tool and in from
  349. 10:45here that quarter mark all the way up
  350. 10:47into this level. We're talking about 550
  351. 10:49pips. 500 plus pips in here, which is
  352. 10:51absolutely amazing for a 20 pip stop
  353. 10:53loss. So, this is why you're not too
  354. 10:55concerned about whether your stop losses
  355. 10:56are 20 pips. It can be 20 pips or lower,
  356. 10:59man. That that's it. The most I'll go
  357. 11:00with gold is 20 pips. But now, you don't
  358. 11:02have to worry about that, guys. You
  359. 11:03could have focused on this. You could
  360. 11:05have taken this trade from in here and
  361. 11:07run it to this high here and that still
  362. 11:10would have been more than enough. So
  363. 11:11let's just say we jumped in from the
  364. 11:13quarter mark took it to these highs.
  365. 11:15That's 180 pips right here. This is
  366. 11:18beautiful stuff. And like I said, we
  367. 11:20were closing down trades at 500 plus
  368. 11:22pips. But it is what it is. You don't
  369. 11:24have to do that. Catch your intraday
  370. 11:25play and take it to the money. This is
  371. 11:27the closest money going to be liquidity
  372. 11:29above this high. Like I said, when price
  373. 11:31is dropping, making lower lows and lower
  374. 11:34highs, lower lows, it's generating
  375. 11:35liquidity to then run it later. So, here
  376. 11:38is the closest one above these different
  377. 11:40highs. This one here, there's going to
  378. 11:41be money above that high. There's also
  379. 11:43going to be money above this high, too.
  380. 11:45But you don't have to worry about all
  381. 11:46the money. You can just worry about the
  382. 11:48first one. Take it out and be out.
  383. 11:50Focusing on those smaller wins. This all
  384. 11:52would have taken roughly about Let's
  385. 11:53just double check. And just so you guys
  386. 11:55know, when I say smaller wins, I don't
  387. 11:56necessarily mean scalp. I just mean take
  388. 11:58it to the first money. The money's up
  389. 11:59here. We trade towards the money. This
  390. 12:01whole YouTube channel is based on
  391. 12:02trading towards the money. Here's the
  392. 12:04money. You either close off your
  393. 12:05positions here or you take partials and
  394. 12:07let the rest ride. This here would have
  395. 12:09taken you how long it would have taken
  396. 12:10you from your entry. Your entry would
  397. 12:12have come from in here inside here. So
  398. 12:15this candlestick and it would have taken
  399. 12:16you onto this candlestick to run it. So
  400. 12:18roughly about what's that? 18 minutes
  401. 12:20guys. I know you guys have 18 minutes of
  402. 12:22patience. Patiently waiting for price to
  403. 12:24get to your area of interest. This is
  404. 12:26the easiest point right here. So guys,
  405. 12:28those were two things. Understanding
  406. 12:30where price is going. I knew this is
  407. 12:32where the sell candles were. That's
  408. 12:34where the draw down is. So we're most
  409. 12:35likely going to go down to that. You get
  410. 12:37that last down close candle into your
  411. 12:38area. If you're not comfortable with
  412. 12:40price dropping and you buying, then look
  413. 12:42for the first turnaround, the first
  414. 12:44reversal, the first sign of reversal,
  415. 12:46which is this whole play we've
  416. 12:48explained, and take it to the money.
  417. 12:50Take it to the first money point, which
  418. 12:51is up
