If You Only Have $50 to Start Trading, Do This Every Morning — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00If I only had $50 to start trading, this
- 0:03is the exact morning routine [music] I
- 0:05would do every single day. Now, yes,
- 0:08trading has completely changed my life.
- 0:10It's helped me build an incredible
- 0:12lifestyle and even this house behind me
- 0:14right here. But it did not start here.
- 0:17I've been trading for 18 years and when
- 0:19I started, I didn't trade with huge
- 0:21amounts. [music] I had to learn how to
- 0:23follow a simple system, manage my risk,
- 0:25and become consistent first. [music]
- 0:27Over the years, that same process has
- 0:29helped me produce trading results like
- 0:31these. And in this video, I'm going to
- 0:33show you the exact [music] three-step
- 0:35strategy I would use if I was starting
- 0:38over on a small account. I'll [music]
- 0:39show you how I mark my supply and
- 0:41demand, why I always trade with the
- 0:43trend, and the perfect confirmations I
- 0:46use to win my trades. So, if you only
- 0:49have a small trading account to start
- 0:51with, this is the [music] exact strategy
- 0:53that I would use. Just smash that like
- 0:56button, [music] subscribe to the
- 0:58channel, and let's dive in.
- 1:03Let's start with the biggest mistake
- 1:05traders make with a small account.
- 1:07Deciding their risk-reward before they
- 1:10even look at the chart. And honestly,
- 1:12this is how most gurus teach it. They'll
- 1:15tell you risk $50, target $150.
- 1:20That gives you a 1:3 risk-reward ratio.
- 1:23But the market doesn't work like that.
- 1:26It really doesn't care how much you want
- 1:28to make on a single trade. After 18
- 1:30years of trading, I use price action to
- 1:32tell me where to target on a trade. So,
- 1:34we have a recent level right here, maybe
- 1:37I would target, or a recent level right
- 1:39here, maybe I would target. And if I
- 1:41pull that trade up, you can see I would
- 1:44be getting about 1.8 risk-to-reward at
- 1:47that level and about 1:1 at this level.
- 1:50So, if I play this trade out, you can
- 1:52see we hit the first level, that would
- 1:54be a win. We hit the second level, that
- 1:57would be a win. But what if I follow the
- 1:58other gurus and target one to three on
- 2:01this trade? Let's play it out and see
- 2:03exactly what would happen. We got to
- 2:05that level, we got a little bit above,
- 2:07and then we slammed down, smashing our
- 2:09stop loss. So, we could have made 50
- 2:11bucks, we could have made 100 bucks, but
- 2:14instead, we lost our trade. But, even
- 2:17more important than risk reward is where
- 2:19I take my trades from. So, let's jump
- 2:22into my three-step $50 trading strategy
- 2:25starting with supply and demand. If I
- 2:27could trade only one type of level for
- 2:29the rest of my life, it would be supply
- 2:31and demand. I trade these concepts on
- 2:33Forex, crypto, gold, Nasdaq, everything,
- 2:37and I literally use it on every single
- 2:40possible time frame. I always start by
- 2:42looking for one thing, an explosive push
- 2:46in price. I want to see big green
- 2:48candles, fair value gaps, and I want to
- 2:51see a break of structure, so I know I'm
- 2:54trading with the trend, but more of that
- 2:56in step two. Once my rules are met, I
- 2:58could draw my level of demand on the
- 3:00last red candle before the big push up.
- 3:03Then, all I have to do is wait for the
- 3:05price to pull back to that level of
- 3:08demand, and that's where I'll be
- 3:10interested in taking a trade from. Now,
- 3:13why does this level work? Because buyers
- 3:16already showed us this was an area they
- 3:18were willing to step in and push up
- 3:20price aggressively, which means there
- 3:22could be more buying orders at this
- 3:24level and a bunch of traders waiting to
- 3:26step in here as well to push up price
- 3:29again. So, once I get that reaction, I'm
- 3:32into my trade, and I'm smashing my take
- 3:34profit. And for one extra tip, if we
- 3:36scroll to the side here, and we see that
- 3:39we have a previous level of supply here,
- 3:42we just want to make sure that we get a
- 3:44candle closure like that above the level
- 3:47of supply, and that's another
- 3:49confirmation that this demand zone is
- 3:52very likely to hold and push that price
- 3:55up. Now, as I zoom back in here, you can
- 3:57see we actually create another level of
- 4:00demand right here. We have the big green
- 4:04push up. We've got the fair value gap,
- 4:06and we have the break of structure with
- 4:08price closing above this level. So, what
- 4:11are we doing? We're just waiting for
- 4:12price to come back to our level of
- 4:14demand. Do we tap in at any point? Yes,
- 4:17we do, and we are into another trading
- 4:20position off of this candle right here.
- 4:23And what do you think is going to
- 4:24happen? Well, let's play this out. Price
- 4:26taps that level a couple of times, and
- 4:29inevitably smashes our take profit. And
- 4:31so, let's zoom out. Let's take a look
- 4:34again. We've got another level of demand
- 4:36right here. If we play the price out, we
- 4:39get another level of demand right here.
- 4:42And if we continue to play it out, do we
- 4:44come to that level? We absolutely do. We
- 4:46touch that level right there. Maybe we
- 4:48target something like this again, play
- 4:50this out, and what happens? We smash the
- 4:53take profit again. And before we go to
- 4:55step two, if we continue to play this
- 4:57out, you can see there is no longer a
- 5:00level of demand, right? This is not
- 5:02really a level of demand because we've
- 5:04got a bunch of red candles here, right?
- 5:07It's not that aggressive move up. You've
- 5:09got the fair value gap, which is nice,
- 5:11but it's not what we're looking for. And
- 5:14even if it was a level of demand, you
- 5:16could actually just watch and see what
- 5:18happens. We get this candle closure here
- 5:20below that level, which would actually
- 5:23invalidate this level, so we wouldn't
- 5:25even take the trade, and we would be
- 5:27able to collect the profits from three
- 5:30separate trading positions. Maybe we
- 5:32made 100 here, 300 here, and even 500
- 5:36here, depending on the size of our
- 5:37account and our skill level. But in
- 5:39order for this to work, in order for us
- 5:42to keep winning these trades, we need to
- 5:43make sure that price is in an uptrend.
- 5:46But before we get into that step, please

- 5:50comment for your chance to win one of
- 5:52seven free spots to my VIP trading room.
- 5:55Now on to step two, trading with the
- 5:57trend. Let's start step two with a
- 6:00downtrend. The best supply and demand
- 6:02traders I've ever seen always trade with
- 6:05the trend. So, price pushes down, we
- 6:07pull up, pushes down, we pull up, it
- 6:10pushes down, we pull up, and we're just
- 6:12looking for sell trades in the
- 6:14downtrend, right? The swing high here,
- 6:16the swing high here, the swing high
- 6:18here, it's never getting taken out,
- 6:21right? Price never comes up to take out
- 6:23that price. So, we're continuing in the
- 6:26downtrend. And when that's the case,
- 6:28we're simply looking to sell at levels
- 6:31of supply. And sure, you're not always
- 6:34going to have a ton of selling
- 6:36opportunities, but we take what the
- 6:38market gives us. Sure, if the price came
- 6:41up here, we had another sell. Or if this
- 6:43price came up here, we had another sell.
- 6:45But we were patient, we got two winning
- 6:48trading positions. And now let me show
- 6:50you in the uptrend. Look, price is
- 6:51pushing up, it's pulling back, it's
- 6:54pushing up, it's pulling back, pushing
- 6:56up, pulling back, pushing up, pulling
- 6:58back, and pushing up again. Clearly, we
- 7:01are in an uptrend. At no point do any of
- 7:04these lows get taken out by price. You
- 7:08know, this price doesn't come down here
- 7:10taking out that low. This price doesn't
- 7:12come down here taking out that low. So,
- 7:15we just want to look for buy trades in
- 7:18the uptrend and make it as easy as
- 7:20possible. So, I've got a nice setup
- 7:22right there to get into a trading
- 7:24position, and another setup around here
- 7:26to get into a trading position. But what
- 7:29we don't want to do is look for sell
- 7:31trades. You got a little level of supply
- 7:33right there, we want to avoid that. Got
- 7:35another level of supply after this push
- 7:37down, we want to avoid that. Because
- 7:39we're in the uptrend, we only want to
- 7:41look for buy trades. Now, the third and
- 7:44final thing you need to know for this
- 7:46strategy is confirmation. When price
- 7:49comes to this level, what do we want to
- 7:52see to enter a trade? So, if we go back
- 7:54to our first example, we had a level of
- 7:57demand right here. And what would be the
- 7:59entry confirmation for me to get into
- 8:01this trade? Well, let me show you. This
- 8:03is one of the things I would look for,
- 8:05which is actually a wick enclosure. So,
- 8:08you can see price came down into this
- 8:10level right here and then it closed up
- 8:13here. To me, that's significant because
- 8:15it's telling me this level is holding.
- 8:18Price came into the level, pushed up,
- 8:20and closed. So, on a setup like this, I
- 8:23will either enter on the close right
- 8:25there or I will reenter at the top of
- 8:28the zone. So, I had my confirmation, but
- 8:30I still want to have an additional
- 8:32pullback to this level one more time in
- 8:35order to get into the trading position,
- 8:37which is exactly what I would do on a
- 8:39trade like this in order to smash the
- 8:41take profit. Now, that is my first entry
- 8:44model. And if we go over here, let's
- 8:46look at another example. My second entry
- 8:49model, you've probably seen me do this a
- 8:51lot on stream, but you can see price
- 8:53pulls back to the level right here. And
- 8:56now, what am I looking for, right? We've
- 8:57already got the wick and close, right?
- 8:59We wicked in, we closed above, we wicked
- 9:01in, we closed below. You know, I could
- 9:03have entered that trade already, but if
- 9:05I'm really being cautious, I will look
- 9:07for a specific candle pattern. And
- 9:09that's a bullish engulfing candle
- 9:11pattern. So, I want to see a small red
- 9:13candle body engulfed by a big green
- 9:17candle body. That's a bullish engulfing
- 9:19candle pattern. And on this one, I'm
- 9:21usually going to enter on that candle
- 9:23closure, put my stops below the level of
- 9:26demand, put a take profit at a recent
- 9:28level of price, maybe something like
- 9:30this, and then I'm ready to place the
- 9:32trade, see how that plays out, and
- 9:34ideally smash my take profit. So, now
- 9:37I'm going to combine all of this for you
- 9:39in one live trade example, so you know
- 9:41exactly how to use my supply and demand
- 9:43trading strategy starting with 50 bucks.
- 9:46Let's do it. But before we do, if you're
- 9:48wondering where I'm trading, it's with
- 9:50the Risen FX broker. The spreads are
- 9:52low, commissions are low, link is in the
- 9:54video description, and registration is
- 9:57absolutely free, so check them out now,
- 9:59and let's get into that live trade. So,
- 10:00normally in the live trade portion of
- 10:02this video, I show you some recent huge
- 10:06trade. And if I was doing that, I would
- 10:08probably show you this level of supply
- 10:11right here, which resulted in the
- 10:14biggest trade I've ever had live on
- 10:17stream just on Friday. But I want to
- 10:19show you what happened today and exactly
- 10:22what I was thinking about today to show
- 10:25you something that's incredibly recent
- 10:27and exactly in line with this trading
- 10:29lesson. So let's clean up the chart a
- 10:31little bit here. Can see I actually won
- 10:33a trade right here, but I'm not going to
- 10:35get into that one. I really want to
- 10:37cover what I was seeing this morning in
- 10:39the markets. So a very clear downtrend
- 10:42here this morning. You can see we were
- 10:43pushing down, pulling back, pushing
- 10:46down, pulling back, pushing down, and
- 10:48pulling back, right? That is what we
- 10:50were doing. So in that sort of
- 10:52downtrend, I'm just looking for supply
- 10:55zones. So I marked up a supply zone
- 10:57right here, and I marked up a supply
- 10:59zone right here, and then I had another
- 11:01level down here, which was a flip zone.
- 11:03This level was used as support over
- 11:05here, and so I was thinking it might be
- 11:07used as resistance right here. And
- 11:09ideally, that would have been where I
- 11:11entered my trade this morning. Had I
- 11:13done that, I would have got a very nice
- 11:15win in front of 30,000 people. But alas,
- 11:18that was not the case. I was being
- 11:20patient. I had this level of supply
- 11:23right here. Price pushed out of that
- 11:25area. I had the fair value gap. I had 1
- 11:282 3 4 5 red candles in a row. So I
- 11:31wanted price to pull back to that level
- 11:35for my entry. And it didn't happen. And
- 11:37I didn't get the trade, but I was
- 11:39patient, and that's the lesson that I
- 11:41want to teach you today. It's okay to
- 11:43miss your trade as long as you're
- 11:45marking up good levels. And for
- 11:46tomorrow, what am I looking for? Well,
- 11:49we've got a level of demand right here.
- 11:51Would I enter that trade? Well, we're
- 11:53still kind of in this downtrend, so
- 11:54probably not. But we do have a level of
- 11:57supply, albeit a weak one. Maybe I would
- 11:59enter a trade from there, or maybe I'll
- 12:01wait for a bit more of a pullback to
- 12:03that original level of supply and end up
- 12:06taking a sell from there. You'll have to
- 12:08watch the live stream to see what
- 12:09happens. I hope you like my $50 trading
