I Tested 3 Scalping Strategies on the Same Day — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Fibonacci trading is basically trading
- 0:03the psychology of the markets. If this
- 0:06iPhone costs $1,000 and then went on
- 0:10sale 60% off and you could buy it for
- 0:14$400, you would jump on that
- 0:16opportunity. The same thing happens when
- 0:19price is making market structure,
- 0:22bullish market structure. Every single
- 0:24higher low is a discounted price where
- 0:26buyers are more interested in getting in
- 0:29and continuing that trend. So, let's
- 0:32jump into the charts and I'm going to
- 0:34show you how to trend trade like a
- 0:35master. Now, in yesterday's video, I
- 0:38showed you how to identify RSI
- 0:40divergences to find the tops and bottoms
- 0:43of these trends. But how do you actually
- 0:45trade these trends and get multiple
- 0:48positions and multiple successful trades
- 0:51during a trending market? Now, the
- 0:53easiest way to identify market structure
- 0:55is by using the brush tool. Mark up
- 0:58higher highs and higher lows and then
- 1:02stop looking at your candles. You can
- 1:05actually hide them if you want. Now,
- 1:06bearish market structure is lower lows
- 1:09and lower highs. Every time a lower low
- 1:12gets broken and creates a continuation
- 1:15lower low, these are the ones that you
- 1:17want to identify as your main higher
- 1:19highs and higher lows, not all the noise
- 1:22in the middle. We're only focusing on
- 1:24lows, not even focusing on the higher
- 1:29lows. All we want to see is breaks of
- 1:32structure. Every single one of these
- 1:34pink lines is a break of the previous
- 1:37lower low. Now, because we know that
- 1:40price is making lower lows, price is
- 1:43continuing to break structure, we know
- 1:45that we can Fibonacci retracement trade
- 1:48successfully during this entire trend.
- 1:51Now, the Fibonacci retracement tool is
- 1:53the third icon down on your left
- 1:55toolbar. When you draw on your charts,
- 1:57it's going to look different if you've
- 1:58never changed the settings. I like these
- 2:01settings the best. Here they are. You
- 2:03can take a screenshot if you want to
- 2:04make yours look exactly like mine. Now
- 2:06zooming in, when price breaks previous
- 2:10structure and starts retracing, you can
- 2:12draw your Fibonacci retracement tool
- 2:15from the top to the bottom of the move
- 2:19that broke structure. This is known as
- 2:21an impulse move. An impulse move breaks
- 2:25previous structure. And what I want you
- 2:27to do when you are trading this way and
- 2:29you know that market structure is
- 2:31bearish to get the highest
- 2:33riskto-reward. I want you to create
- 2:35pending orders. Your pending orders are
- 2:37going to be in the Fibonacci gold zone.
- 2:40Keep in mind the earlier entry the worse
- 2:43your risk-to-reward. If you enter at a
- 2:460.5 Fibonacci retracement and your
- 2:48take-profit is at the end of the impulse
- 2:50move and your stop loss is at the
- 2:52beginning of the impulse move, you will
- 2:54have a 1:1 risk-to-reward ratio. If your
- 2:57entry is at the 618, you will have a
- 3:001:1.6 risk-to-reward ratio, which is
- 3:03much better. Sometimes your pending
- 3:05orders might not get tagged in, but
- 3:07that's okay because this is the best way
- 3:09to do it because this is the highest
- 3:12risk-to-reward. The reason why we target
- 3:14the bottom of the impulse move is
- 3:16because we do not know for sure if price
- 3:18will make a new lower low, but we can
- 3:20almost assume that price will make a
- 3:22double bottom if the trend is dying. So,
- 3:25a nice safe take-profit is the bottom of
- 3:28that impulse move. And you will do this
- 3:30on every impulse move that broke the
- 3:33previous structure. And you will have
- 3:34your pending orders ready at the 618
- 3:37retracement. And you can see in this
- 3:39trend, we did not get tagged in many
- 3:42times along these retracements. But
- 3:44because we're smart and we want the best
- 3:46risk-to-reward, we were able to capture
- 3:49two wins and one loss out of here. So if
- 3:51your risk-to-reward is 1 to 1.6, you got
- 3:543.2% for the winners and minus 1% for
- 3:57the one loser. That gives you a net
- 3:59profit of 2.2%. So, with or without the
- 4:02candles, if you draw your zigzags to the
- 4:04exact highs and lows of the wicks,
- 4:07you'll be able to see more clearly
- 4:09without the anxiety of every single
- 4:11pullback candle that you can now trade
- 4:14with the trend successfully. But the
- 4:17most important thing is being able to
- 4:18trade with the trend on the pullbacks to
- 4:21get the highest risk-to-reward. And if
- 4:24you really want to go crazy, you can
- 4:26actually hold these takerits until you
- 4:28can clearly see that the market trend is
- 4:31over and we are no longer making higher
- 4:33highs and higher lows. That's a huge
- 4:36incredible risk-to-reward ratio. So
- 4:38hopefully this video gave you a cleaner
- 4:41look without all the noise of how to
- 4:43trade with the trend with the highest
- 4:45probability for success, the best entry
- 4:48points, and the best risk-to-reward.
- 4:50Now, in tomorrow's video, because this
- 4:53is an entire series, I'm going to be
- 4:55putting all three of these trading
- 4:58strategies together in a single day on a
- 5:01low time frame so we can scalp the
- 5:03markets many times per day with the
- 5:06highest risk-to-reward ratio and the
- 5:08highest probability for success. We'll
- 5:10be putting together RSI divergences,
- 5:13Fibonacci retracements, as well as
- 5:15breakout trading strategies. Thank you
- 5:17so much for watching and I can't wait to
- 5:19see you in tomorrow's video.
- 5:24In today's video, we're going to be
- 5:25putting it all together. RSI
- 5:27divergences, Fibonacci retracements, and
- 5:31breakout trading on a one minute and
- 5:33five minute time frame. I want to show
- 5:35you how I scalp the markets multiple
- 5:38times per day based on what price is
- 5:41actually doing. I'm not analyzing higher
- 5:43time frames. I'm only focusing on that
- 5:45one time frame and what price is doing
- 5:47right now. So, let's get into it. Now, I
- 5:51want to go over the trades that I saw
- 5:53happen on Wednesday, October 7th. If you
- 5:55guys are on my Telegram group or have
- 5:57watched my previous videos, you've seen
- 5:59that I've been doing a 30-day challenge
- 6:00with you guys trading the overnight
- 6:03breakout session strategy. The concept
- 6:06is very simple. The Tokyo session has
- 6:08lower volatility and less participants
- 6:11in the market because the rest of the
- 6:13world is asleep. All banks in Europe,
- 6:16all banks in America, not functioning.
- 6:18So my theory is that this should be
- 6:21drawn as an area of consolidation. Even
- 6:23if it does trend in a specific direction
- 6:25and then at a specific time, if price
- 6:28has a 5-minute candle that closes
- 6:30outside of that range, I enter in in the
- 6:33direction of that candle. This example
- 6:35right here, we had a five-minute candle
- 6:37breakout of the Tokyo session range and
- 6:39I'm assuming that the market will
- 6:41continue in that direction for a
- 6:44majority part of the day. So, I enter in
- 6:46my short position and my stop loss is
- 6:4950% of the value of the Tokyo session.
- 6:53And I don't put my stop loss halfway
- 6:55between. I measure the range. We have 28
- 6:58pips. So, my stop loss is 14 pips and my
- 7:01takerit is two times the risk. Now,
- 7:04because that is my bias for the day now
- 7:06that I've entered in a trade, I am now
- 7:09looking for trades to get into in
- 7:12confluence with that in that same
- 7:14direction. So, let's zoom in and get in
- 7:17on a lower time frame. We can now
- 7:19identify that price is trending down.
- 7:22And when price is trending down, it will
- 7:23have pullbacks in the opposite
- 7:25direction. So, if I take my Fibonacci
- 7:27retracement tool and start measuring
- 7:29once price pulls back more than 33% of
- 7:33the impulse move, I'm looking to get in
- 7:35at the Fibonacci gold zone, entering a
- 7:38short position at the 618 retracement
- 7:40with a stop-loss at the top of the
- 7:43impulse move, getting me a 1:1.6
- 7:46risk-to-reward ratio. Another confluence
- 7:49with this trade was seeing a rejection
- 7:50candle and a powerful momentum candle
- 7:53once it rejected off of the 200 EMA,
- 7:55which is why I have it on my charts all
- 7:57the time because it helps me visually
- 8:00realize that the trend is in that
- 8:02direction. So that's trade number one.
- 8:04That's trade number two. Now I'm waiting
- 8:07for a continuation of the trend and
- 8:09pullbacks. And again, I'm not drawing my
- 8:12Fibonacci retracement tools until price
- 8:14has reached 33% retracements. Then I set
- 8:18my pending orders and every time price
- 8:21breaks structure, I keep looking at
- 8:24pullbacks to the Fibonacci gold zones.
- 8:26All the while in my main trade, but
- 8:28being able to scalp the markets on these
- 8:31pullbacks to increase the number of
- 8:33trades that I have and increasing the
- 8:35probability that I will end the day with
- 8:38multiple good risk-to-reward high
- 8:40probability trades. Now, once our
- 8:42original take-profit got hit right here,
- 8:45we already had two successful trades and
- 8:48you can see that on the one minute time
- 8:49frame, this trend has been going on for
- 8:52a very long time. You don't want to keep
- 8:55trading Fibonacci retracements forever.
- 8:58You want to get two, three, maybe four
- 9:01solid moves out of a single trend
- 9:03because eventually the trend dies off.
- 9:06And you can identify die- offs of trends
- 9:09using a momentum indicator like the RSI.
- 9:12You can see we made a low right here and
- 9:14a lower low right here. Whereas the RSI
- 9:18shows a loss of momentum. A loss of
- 9:20momentum means that the sellers are no
- 9:23longer interested in keeping pushing
- 9:25that price down. Once the sellers lose
- 9:28momentum, the buyers are more likely to
- 9:31take over. So, we shouldn't at this
- 9:33point be looking at Fibonacci
- 9:35retracement trades that are bearish
- 9:38because if you measure this last
- 9:39Fibonacci tool, you can see that we got
- 9:42a good entry at the Fibonacci gold zone,
- 9:45but price did not want to make a new
- 9:47lower low because the sellers are no
- 9:50longer interested in pushing the price
- 9:52down. So, not only are you looking at
- 9:54the RSI for divergences, you have your
- 9:56bias based on what the breakout was of
- 10:00the Tokyo range because what I've seen
- 10:02statistically is that price tends to
- 10:04continue in the direction of the
- 10:06breakout for a majority of the day. So
- 10:08if you already have your bias for the
- 10:11day and you are trading a breakout of
- 10:13the consolidation range, you can use
- 10:15Fibonacci retracements to scalp the
- 10:18market on the way down of your bias. And
- 10:21using the RSI, you can identify when you
- 10:25should be no longer looking for those
- 10:27Fibonacci retracements in your bearish
- 10:30bias because the momentum has died off.
- 10:33And the great part about the RSI
- 10:34divergence is that then you can start
- 10:37trading in the opposite direction. You
- 10:40get an RSI divergence, you get a
- 10:42rejection candle with a wick and a
- 10:44strong bullish candle. You can now enter
- 10:47in a long position with your stop loss
- 10:50at the structure because you know that
- 10:53if the structure is broken again, your
- 10:55theory or your assumption on this trade
- 10:58is null and void and again targeting a 1
- 11:00one.5. So you can even scalp your way
- 11:03out of that downtrend. Basically your
- 11:07last trade of the day because you know
- 11:09momentum is dying off. So you can just
- 11:11take a little piece of it. Even if it
- 11:13goes back up to the moving average,
- 11:15you're still safe with your
- 11:16risk-to-reward and you're not
- 11:17anticipating a huge swing trade. So in
- 11:20this one single day during the trend, we
- 11:23didn't take any opposite trade signals.
- 11:25And we had three successful scalps out
- 11:28of the market. one of which was massive
- 11:30because it was a breakout trade. And
- 11:32this is how you should set your day up
- 11:33trading every single day. You should
- 11:36have your bias and you should trade
- 11:38Fibonacci retracements in accordance
- 11:41with that bias. And you should know when
- 11:43your trading day is over because I don't
- 11:45want you trading bearish all day,
- 11:48getting one bullish pullback and then
- 11:50thinking that the trend and market
- 11:52structure is going to completely reverse
- 11:54from there because that's not
- 11:56statistically likely. Trends hold for a
- 11:58very long time. Pullbacks happen.
- 12:01Momentum dies off. But then price
- 12:03consolidates. You've got a couple of
- 12:05good trades. You traded one solid trend
- 12:08on a lower time frame. You scalp those
- 12:10moves. You're in. You're out. And you
- 12:12can wait for the next day. This takes a
- 12:14lot of stress, energy, brain power to
- 12:18sit on these charts, wait for these
- 12:19retracements, and look for all of these
- 12:22signals. So after two, three, four
- 12:24trades, dude, I don't want you to trade
- 12:26anymore after that. You've already used
- 12:28all of your brain power and ability to
- 12:31control your emotions during a very
- 12:33stressful time, risking real money. And
- 12:36now you can chill, do some chores, other
- 12:39obligations, and wait for the next day
- 12:41to create a new bias. Hopefully you guys
- 12:44enjoy this little video series of mine
- 12:46where I break down how my brain works
- 12:49when I'm trading these three strategies,
- 12:51how I implement all three every single
- 12:54day. And now you know how I put all of
- 12:57them together. I really appreciate you
- 12:58guys taking the time to watch this video
- 13:01series. and let me know in the comments
- 13:03section if you want me to group all of
- 13:05these together and make one long hourong
- 13:08tutorial because that's why I split this
- 13:10up into sections because most people
- 13:11don't have an hour to sit down and watch
- 13:13YouTube. So, thank you so much for
- 13:15watching. I really appreciate you guys
- 13:18and I will see you in the next
