0:00Give me just a couple minutes and I'm
0:01going to hand you my brand new four-step
0:03trading strategy that I use every single
0:04day in order to have profitable days and
0:06have a 70% win rate. With my old
0:09strategy, I was leaving money on the
0:11table. I would be missing out on a lot
0:13of setups. Even when I knew my bias and
0:14drawing liquidity was right, I couldn't
0:16find an entry towards there. But with
0:18this new updated strategy, I'm able to
0:20have the same exact win rate but with
0:22more setups and more opportunity. This
0:24updated video is literally going to be
0:26everything you need in order to trade
0:27the 2026 markets profitably. So, let's
0:30get into it. Step number one, you need
0:31to be able to define the bias and the
0:34higher time frame draw on liquidity.
0:35Before you even think about executing
0:37this model, you need to figure out where
0:38the market wants to go today. And this
0:40simple step right here fixes win rate
0:42more than anything else. I see it all
0:44the time. People hop immediately on the
0:46one-minute time frame, draw out some
0:47fair value gaps, draw out some highs and
0:49lows, and then just immediately gets
0:50chopped around 5 minutes into open. So,
0:52I'm going to show you right now the
0:53simplest way in order for you to define
0:55your bias. So, you're always taking
0:57trades alongside that higher time frame
0:59candle. This is going to give you the
1:00best possible risk reward and the best
1:02delivery in price. So, let me show you
1:04right now on the charts. Okay, so when
1:05you're coming up with your bias and your
1:06drawing liquidity in the morning, it
1:08literally comes down to two simple steps
1:10and two questions that you have to ask
1:12yourself. The first question you have to
1:13ask yourself is what fair value gaps are
1:16we respecting versus disrespecting? And
1:18then the second question you have to ask
1:20yourself is what swing high or low are
1:22we going towards? So, for question
1:24number one, if we are going to be
1:26bearish, we are going to be respecting
1:28bearish fair value gaps. And we are
1:30going to be disrespecting bullish fair
1:32value gaps. Then, if we are going to be
1:34bullish, we are going to be respecting
1:36bullish fair value gaps and then
1:38disrespecting bearish fair value gaps.
1:40Now, from here, this is really all you
1:43need. And I also forgot to add, for time
1:45frames, I'm on the daily time frame, the
1:474-hour, the 1-hour, and the 15-minute
1:49time frame to define my bias. Mainly,
1:52I'm really staying on that daily and
1:544-hour and 1-hour. Sticking with those
1:56hourly time frames gives me the clearest
1:58picture. And then, really when it comes
1:59to open and stuff, that's when I'll hop
2:01on the 15-minute chart just to
2:02double-check that everything's there.
2:04Sometimes we could have some like
2:05perfect equal lows on like the
2:0715-minute, which could then lead to a
2:09different bias. So, it's not like all
2:11the time I'm just staying on like the
2:12daily and 4-hour, but that's the
2:13majority of time what I'm on to give me
2:15the clearest picture. Now, what swing
2:17high or low are we going towards? You
2:19don't have to overcomplicate this
2:21question. If you see we have a high in
2:23the market and we are going towards it,
2:25right? It looks like the market is
2:26pushing up towards that high, then you
2:28mark it out and that's your draw on
2:29liquidity for the day. If we are down
2:31here and we are respecting a bullish
2:33fair value gap and then we have a
2:34bearish fair value gap here and this is
2:36getting disrespected, what is my bias
2:38and draw on liquidity going to be for
2:40the day? Well, we are doing what? We are
2:41respecting bullish, disrespecting
2:44bearish. What does that look like here?
2:45This is a bullish scenario. And then
2:46what swing high or low are we going
2:48towards? Looks like this one. So, this
2:49is going to be my draw on liquidity for
2:51the day. Again, don't overcomplicate
2:53this guys. Trade with the trend. The
2:55trend is your friend. I see it all the
2:57time, especially on a day like today. I
2:59ended up making around 11k today and it
3:01was literally just because I was
3:03following in the higher time frame
3:04trend. Let me show you guys how to
3:06actually define your bias on the higher
3:07time frame and I'm going to use an
3:08example from today. So, what I do first,
3:11right? And this was today, this was
3:12Wednesday, May 13th. What I do first is
3:15I'll hop on the daily chart, right?
3:16Obviously, what does this look like
3:18guys? We are at all-time highs. So, we
3:20are extremely bullish. And this is an
3:23easier scenario here, but this is why
3:24it's so important guys, just literally
3:26trade with the trend. If you guys been
3:28watching my trade recaps or watching my
3:30kick streams, watching me live trade,
3:31the reason I have such a high win rate
3:33right now at all-time highs is because
3:35I'm literally just taking longs and I'll
3:37only short if it's just such a obvious
3:39bearish bias for shorts. But the
3:41majority of the time guys, I'm just
3:42trading with this higher time frame
3:43trend. Now, that being said, this is the
3:45chart that I was looking at at around
3:478:00 a.m. So, what are we doing here?
3:49So, if we hop on the 4-hour time frame
3:51here, you can clearly see here we are
3:53respecting this bullish 4-hour fair
3:55value gap. And if we go on the hourly
3:56time frame as well, what are we doing
3:58with these fair value gaps to the left
4:00of us? These bearish fair value gaps are
4:02literally getting ran through. We are
4:04disrespecting them. We are closing
4:06through them. And then what are we doing
4:07with these bullish fair value gaps? We
4:08are holding them and then this is
4:10sending price higher. Now, I also like
4:12to look at ES and see if it's doing
4:13relatively the same thing and it is. And
4:15even better, what do we have up here at
4:17these highs? Relative equal highs. So,
4:19this to me is where the market is going
4:22towards because we are respecting these
4:24bullish gaps down here on the daily time
4:26frame, respecting this bullish gap,
4:27hourly time frame, same exact thing,
4:294-hour time frame, same thing. So, my
4:31bias for the day is going to be bullish.
4:34Towards what? Where's the next obvious
4:36swing high that the market is moving
4:38towards? This high right here. I'm going
4:39to mark out this level by side liquidity
4:41right here. And that's really it. That's
4:43my bias for the day. All right, so now
4:44that we have bias out of the way, you've
4:46already eliminated about 90% of the bad
4:48trades that you probably would have
4:49taken. But this next step is so
4:51extremely important because this is
4:52where the market is going to bounce
4:54from. And this is where every single one
4:56of your trades is going to revolve
4:57around. So, this next step is
4:59identifying a valid key level. There are
5:01people out there that I see, and this
5:03could be you, where you have 20 lines on
5:05your chart, you have 30 indicators, and
5:08you have all these random boxes, and you
5:10call them your key levels. And this
5:12leads you into taking so many trades in
5:14a day, and you wonder why nothing works.
5:16But the solution to this is not just
5:18draw at random levels, but actually have
5:20a high quality point in which price will
5:22either reverse from or your bias is just
5:24completely wrong. And by giving yourself
5:26these two to three levels, that is all
5:28you're going to need for the strategy.
5:30It is way simpler and it is way less of
5:32a headache. Now, let's get into this
5:34because this is where the new strategy
5:35actually changes the game. Because
5:37before with my trading, I was only
5:39allowed to take trades off of fair value
5:41gaps. That was either an unmitigated gap
5:43or an already mitigated one. And that of
5:45course worked, and it still does, but
5:47there'll will be a lot of times where I
5:48watch trades print right in front of me
5:50where I had the bias right, the draw on
5:51liquidity right, and I literally
5:53couldn't get an entry towards that. So,
5:55I was leaving money on the table. So,
5:57now with this new updated strategy, I've
5:58implemented new key levels that you can
6:00start using while still having the same
6:0270% win rate. So, let me show you guys
6:04that right now on the charts. So, step
6:06two, identifying a valid key level. The
6:08time frames I use are the 3-minute, the
6:105-minute, the 15-minute, 30-minute,
6:121-hour, and 4-hour, all with higher time
6:14frame narrative, which you will get from
6:16that first step of having proper higher
6:18time frame bias and draw on liquidity.
6:20Now, that being said, the first key
6:21level that I use are fair value gaps.
6:24And this can be in the form of an
6:25unmitigated fair value gap or an
6:27intermediate high or an intermediate low
6:29inside of the gap. Now, what this looks
6:31like is that we will have a fair value
6:33gap in play right here, and this could
6:35be off the 5-minute, this could be a
6:3715-minute gap, whatever. And this could
6:39be a valid key level. We can trade into
6:41this, and then this will be a valid area
6:43for price to reject off of. Now, let's
6:46say we already traded into this fair
6:47value gap, maybe we did that during
6:49pre-market, and we start trading away
6:50from it, and now market is opening and
6:52we are trading towards this gap. We
6:54cannot use this area right here as a key
6:57level. Instead, what we have to wait for
6:59is for this low inside of this gap to
7:01get swept. And this is a bullish
7:03scenario, you can just flip this around
7:04for a bearish scenario. But then, at
7:06this point, this is a valid key level
7:08right here for price to then reject and
7:10bounce off. All right, so now I'm going
7:12to move on to the second type of key
7:13levels that I'm now implementing in this
7:15trading strategy, and this is going to
7:17be CISDs.
7:19Now, a CISD, or a change in state of
7:21delivery, for a bullish scenario is when
7:23we have a body close above a candle or
7:27series of down closed candles that hit a
7:30fair value gap or an intermediate low
7:32inside of a a fair value gap. And for a
7:35bearish scenario, it's a body close
7:37below a candle or series of up closed
7:41candles that hit a fair value gap or an
7:44intermediate high resting inside of a
7:46fair value gap. All right, I'm going to
7:47show you guys now just on a chart what a
7:49CISD actually looks like. So, as you can
7:52see here, we traded down and we hit this
7:54sell side liquidity pool right here. We
7:56ended up forming a bullish SMT at these
7:58lows because ES ended up sweeping it out
8:01as you can see, whereas the NASDAQ did
8:03not. So, this is a bullish SMT. From
8:04here, you can see that we have this
8:06series of down close candles here that
8:08went and traded into this key level and
8:10swept out this liquidity. And we can
8:12mark out the opening price of that
8:14series of down close candles. And once
8:16we get a body closing above this, this
8:18is going to be your change in state of
8:21delivery. So, we wait here. This is also
8:23on the 15-minute time frame. And boom,
8:25right here we have a beautiful change in
8:27state of delivery. So, this area can be
8:29used now as a key level for us to base
8:32our trade ideas off of. And as you can
8:34see, price ends up trading back into
8:35that area, perfectly rejecting it, and
8:37then we trade higher. Let me show you
8:39now a bearish example of what a change
8:40state of delivery looks like. So, now
8:42I'm going to show you guys some examples
8:43of some bearish CISDs. So, as you can
8:45see here, we went up and traded into a
8:47bearish fair value gap, a bearish
8:49intermediate high. You can see here, we
8:51are rejecting off of this key level. And
8:52we have this series of upclose candles
8:54that traded into this key level. Once we
8:56get a body closure below the opening
8:59price of these series of upclose candles
9:01that traded into this key level, this
9:03will be a change state of delivery. So,
9:05we're being patient, we're waiting, and
9:06boom, right here we get a body closure
9:08below that, and this is your change in
9:10state of delivery. So, we can use this
9:12area as a key level for us to base our
9:15trade ideas off of to send price lower.
9:17And as you can see, we wick into that
9:19area, and then price delivers lower. We
9:21keep trading into this level, price
9:22keeps trading lower from that level. And
9:25we can keep doing the same thing. From
9:26here, what did price trade into? And you
9:28can see here, we traded into an hourly
9:30bearish fair value gap. Now, what was
9:32that candle or series of upclose candles
9:35that traded into that hourly bearish
9:36fair value gap? You can see here it was
9:38this green candle right here that traded
9:40into that fair value gap. So this is
9:41going to be your CISD. We can mark that
9:44out right there and this is also on the
9:455-minute time frame, right? That candle
9:47that traded into that hourly gap. Price
9:49wicks into this level as you can see and
9:51then we deliver lower. And it also
9:53wicked what area as well? This CIC all
9:56the way over here as well on the
9:5715-minute time frame. We can also go on
9:59the hourly chart and it was pretty much
10:01that same level there. This is an hourly
10:03change state delivery, right? This
10:04hourly close right here. We got a body
10:06close through that. So it's really
10:08happening on all time frames when you
10:10see it like that, it's super high
10:11probability. Now I want you guys to know
10:13that CISDs are best used with fair value
10:16gaps. So it's really great to get really
10:18precise key levels, but sometimes they
10:20can be used just on their own as a key
10:23level, but just know that when they are
10:24combined with a fair value gap, it is
10:26that much stronger. Now the final key
10:28level that I use are rejection blocks.
10:31Now what does a bullish rejection block
10:34look like? It is simply going to be a
10:36bullish wick that traded into a fair
10:39value gap or an intermediate low inside
10:42of a fair value gap. Versus a bearish
10:44rejection block is going to be a bearish
10:47wick that traded into a fair value gap
10:50or an intermediate high inside of a fair
10:53value gap. So let's take a look at what
10:55this would look like pretty much on the
10:56charts. So we can look at an example
10:58like this from today. We see that we
11:00have this bullish wick in the market and
11:03this is a wick that traded into what? A
11:05bullish fair value gap. So this right
11:07here is a bullish rejection block on the
11:091-hour chart. We sometimes can go and
11:12sweep this low which we did on ES, but
11:14what did NQ do? It actually traded down
11:17into this wick, perfectly respected it
11:19and went higher. Also with the rejection
11:21blocks, make sure you draw out CE of the
11:23range because a lot of times we can go
11:24to it and that's how you really get
11:26those like bottom tick entries. But
11:28again, I'm not entering at these levels
11:30guys, right? These are simply just key
11:32levels that I use and then I'm going to
11:34wait for confirmation and all that and
11:35I'm going to talk about that in the next
11:36step, but this is just one example of
11:38what a rejection wick and a rejection
11:40block looks like. Now, let me show you
11:41what a bearish rejection block looks
11:43like right here. So, as you can see
11:44here, guys, we have this bearish 1-hour
11:46fair value gap. Price trades into this
11:48bearish 1-hour fair value gap and we get
11:50a beautiful wick off of that. A
11:52beautiful reaction forms and we can draw
11:55out this box right here of the wick and
11:57this is a bearish 1-hour rejection wick.
12:00And as you can see, price trades into
12:02this wick, perfectly taps into it, and
12:04then delivers from there. And we can use
12:06this area as a key level to base our
12:09trade ideas off of. Now, just by
12:10implementing these new key levels, this
12:12strategy has now become 10 times more
12:14powerful because like I was saying
12:16before, I would always have to wait for
12:17some sort of fair value gap to form and
12:19I would have to take trades either off
12:21of that or just wait for the
12:22intermediate high or low inside of that
12:24gap to get hit. But, as you guys saw in
12:26those examples, sometimes those highs or
12:28lows in the market are protected.
12:30we really don't have a fair value gap
12:32form and we have a really confident draw
12:34on liquidity and bias, these areas are
12:36going to give you such precise entries
12:38and overall just give you higher quality
12:40opportunity trading my strategy. So, now
12:42that we've covered how to actually find
12:44your key levels, you still need that
12:45confirmation that order flow has flipped
12:47and that your key level is really valid.
12:50And how you can do that is by waiting
12:51for confirmation using an inversion fair
12:53value gap. A lot of traders see price
12:55tap into their key level and just
12:57immediately take a trade, which is fine
12:59if your key level is valid, of course,
13:01and it's aligned with the higher time
13:02frame draw, but it's going to yield you
13:04a pretty low win rate. Rather, if you
13:06wait for an IFVG to confirm your
13:08narrative, your win rate will skyrocket.
13:11So, let me show you guys on the charts
13:12what an IFVG confirmation looks like so
13:14you can master this concept once and for
13:16all. All right, so now that we're on the
13:17charts, I'm going to show you guys this
13:18third step, which is the IFVG. The time
13:21frames you guys want to be using for
13:22your IFVG confirmation is the 1-minute,
13:24the 2-minute, the 3-minute, the
13:264-minute, and the five minute chart. And
13:28you want to be waiting for the highest
13:30time frame IFEG in the manipulation leg.
13:34Now, what do you mean by this, Blake?
13:36Let's say we have our first step down,
13:38and we have a bullish bias. And then we
13:40have our second step down, and we found
13:41a bullish key level. Now, I want to wait
13:43for an IFEG out of this key level to
13:45really confirm that we have switched
13:47order flow. And a really common mistake
13:49I see with a lot of beginner traders is
13:51that they will take a lower time frame
13:53IFEG, maybe like the one minute chart in
13:56this manipulation leg, and it will fail.
13:58The reason being because we haven't
14:00actually distributed through the whole
14:02entire leg and inverted the highest time
14:04frame in that leg. So, the manipulation
14:06leg is simply the swing high to the
14:08swing low that hit your key level. And
14:10nine times out of 10, guys, I'm waiting
14:12for the highest time frame inversion.
14:14So, what that means, guys, I'm going to
14:16be looking at this specific leg, and I'm
14:18going to be paying attention to the one
14:20minute chart, the two minute chart, the
14:21three minute, the four minute, the five
14:22minute. And whatever the highest time
14:24frame for rally gap is of that leg,
14:25that's where I'm going to be taking the
14:26trade off. So, let's say the highest
14:28time frame of this leg is a two minute
14:30IFEG, and I look and there's no three
14:32minute. It's just a two minute. Okay,
14:33perfect. I'm going to take this trade,
14:35and I'm going to wait for price to close
14:36through this two minute gap on the two
14:37minute time frame, of course, and then I
14:39will take a long. Now, again, there are
14:41times where maybe I have really strong
14:43conviction in trades. I have been
14:45trading for around five years now, so I
14:46am able to use discretion and screen
14:49time. But when you are a beginner
14:50trader, it is really important that you
14:52just wait for this because although it's
14:54probably going to give you a worse risk
14:56reward if you wait for that highest time
14:57frame, it's going to give you the best
14:59win rate. And especially if you're
15:00trading prop firms, that's really what
15:02you should be aiming for. And for a
15:04bearish scenario, what does this look
15:05like, right? Let's say we have step one
15:07down, and we have a bearish bias. And
15:09then we have step two down, and price
15:11trades into a bearish key level. And
15:13then let's say the highest time frame
15:15IFEG is a 30 second. I also want to put,
15:17guys, that you can use the 30 second
15:19chart. I would say to definitely back
15:21test it because there are a lot of
15:23setups using the 30-second time frame
15:24that I trade with, but there's also a
15:26lot of low-quality setups using the
15:2730-second chart that you have to avoid.
15:29So, I would say utilize the 30-second
15:31chart, yes, if you are more of an
15:33intermediate trader, but if you are
15:34brand, brand new with trading this
15:35model, just stick with the minute charts
15:37for now. But, let's say highest time
15:38frame in this manipulation leg, right?
15:40From this swing low to this swing high
15:41is the 30-second, right? This 30-second
15:44IFG, and there's no 1-minute, there's no
15:462-minute, there's no 3-minute, then
15:47boom, I'll rip this 30-second short
15:48here, and I'll take this trade. So, let
15:50me show you guys what this looks like on
15:51live charts really quick. All right,
15:53looking at the chart here, let's say we
15:54have a bullish bias. Let's say our key
15:55level is down here at this bullish fair
15:57value gap area, and I want to see price
15:59trade into this, so we can mark out
16:01right here the manipulation leg that
16:04traded into this bullish key level that
16:06we have. Our swing high to our swing
16:08low. And now, we look at the fair value
16:10gap that was created inside of this.
16:12Right here, we have a 1-minute IFG, or a
16:14bearish fair value gap that should be an
16:16IFG soon. But, do we have a 2-minute gap
16:19in this leg? No. Do we have a 3-minute
16:20gap? No. Do we have a 4-minute? No. Do
16:22we have a 5-minute? No. The 5-minute
16:24gaps and all these other higher time
16:25frame gaps are above this manipulation
16:27leg. This is what a lot of people get
16:29wrong about trading my strategy. They
16:30think they have to wait for these gaps
16:32up here to get inverted, but no, you
16:33just have to be paying attention to the
16:35manipulation leg that hit your key level
16:37that you have marked out. Now, that
16:38being said, you wait for a body closure
16:40above that. We have that right there,
16:42and then from here, you can take your
16:44long setup, and just watch it absolutely
16:46print. All right, so now I'm going to
16:47show you a bearish example of what a
16:49bearish IFG looks like, right? Let's say
16:51we have a bearish bias. We have a
16:53bearish key level. This key level is a
16:5415-minute bearish intermediate high.
16:56This is an intermediate high right
16:58inside of this bearish fair value gap,
16:59okay? We can see here that we create a
17:01swing low. We then have a swing high put
17:04in place that hits this key level, and
17:05then we start trading lower. Now,
17:07there's no 1-minute IFG, but if we look
17:09on the 30-second chart really quick,
17:11would you look at this? We have a
17:1230-second. So, this is the highest time
17:14frame in this manipulation leg from this
17:15low to this high that hit this key
17:18level. Now, you could take this entry.
17:20If you are extremely confident that this
17:22is your key level that is valid and this
17:24is just enough confirmation for you and
17:26you have such a strong bias, right? You
17:28can take a trade like this, of course.
17:30But, you can also wait for a little bit
17:31more confirmation by instead looking at
17:34this whole entire manipulation leg from
17:36this external swing low on the 5-minute
17:38to this external swing high. And
17:39instead, you wait for the highest time
17:41frame inversion of this leg. And as you
17:42can see here, what do we have? We have a
17:445-minute for value gap. So, there is a
17:463-minute gap in this range. So, there is
17:48a 2-minute gap. There's a 1-minute gap.
17:50But, the highest time frame from the
17:511-minute to the 5-minute here is this
17:535-minute. So, you wait for price to
17:54close below this 5-minute gap. Wait,
17:56wait, wait. Still waiting for a good
17:58close. I would say there is a pretty
18:00valid close there, right? You can take
18:02this one. You could also take this one.
18:04But, just waiting for a valid close.
18:06Stop loss there, right? And here we just
18:07have more confirmation and we dump to
18:10your target. So, that's how you actually
18:11find a valid inversion for value gap.
18:13So, now we have everything, right? Bias,
18:16key level, you have your IFG
18:17confirmation. So, you should just be
18:19able to enter and walk away from your
18:20desk and be done, right? It sounds
18:22obvious, but what doesn't sound obvious
18:23is how easy it is to overcomplicate this
18:26process. Because the second you start
18:28improvising, you're moving your stops,
18:30you're adding to losers, you're
18:31reentering right after you got stopped
18:33out, the entire strategy basically goes
18:35to trash. And the consistency that you
18:37are looking for comes from repetition,
18:39not prediction. And the whole point of
18:41the strategy is that it removes the
18:42decision-making at the time of
18:44execution. And with this, I'm going to
18:46show you three live trade examples that
18:48I've taken these past 2 weeks so you
18:50guys really understand the strategy to
18:52the fullest. Let's get into this last
18:54section. All right, so we're on the
18:55charts now and this is pretty much the
18:57fourth and final step and it is
18:59executing and your risk management. Now,
19:01with executions, I'm typically just
19:03entering on the body closure of the IFG.
19:06Now, there are times where maybe my risk
19:08is really bad and the candle might have
19:10closed just way too high. At that point,
19:12then I'll either set a limit order at
19:14the IFEG or at the CISD. So, there's a
19:17lot of times where we have that IFEG and
19:20we have a change state delivery, you can
19:21limit order that CISD. And we talked
19:23about that in the second step when we're
19:25talking about key levels. It's really
19:26only if my risk reward is trash. Another
19:29thing to note is that I really aim for
19:30that 1:1 RR to 1:3 RR. That is typically
19:34the range that I'm in and I'm really
19:35just targeting low-hanging fruit. So,
19:37what does that mean? It means the most
19:39obvious high or low in the market that
19:41we are drawing towards. So, when we were
19:43talking about drawing liquidity at the
19:44start of this video and your overall
19:45bias, you're marking out on the higher
19:47time frame where is the most obvious
19:49high that we are going to in the market.
19:51You do the same exact thing now just on
19:53the lower time frame, right? Because
19:54just because I have a bias, for example,
19:56to all-time highs, I'm probably not
19:58going to hold maybe all the way to
20:00all-time highs, maybe it's like 300
20:01points away. Usually, I'm not holding
20:03all the way towards there and instead,
20:05I'm just targeting the low-hanging
20:06fruit. I'm getting my piece of the pie,
20:08I'm getting in and out of the trades.
20:09Because especially with prop firm
20:10trading, there is consistency rules for
20:12the accounts that I trade on at least.
20:14So, I really can't have huge 1:10 RR
20:16trades. So, I really just aim for that
20:18low-hanging fruit. Helps your
20:19psychology, gives you a better win rate
20:21and I'm telling you it's just a method
20:22for trading, especially in prop firms
20:24for 2026. So, that being said, let's
20:26move on now to number three. When it
20:27comes to your stop loss, this really
20:29varies because it can sometimes be at
20:31the swing low or high. It can sometimes
20:34be at the body, sometimes at the fair
20:36value gap, sometimes we create a fair
20:37value gap throughout the leg. So,
20:39sometimes I'll put it at the fair value
20:40gap low or high. Sometimes even there's
20:43an order block, right? Typically, if
20:44you're a beginner and you want the
20:46safest stop loss possible, put it at the
20:47swing low. I'll say that's for the
20:49majority of the trades where I put my
20:50stop loss is usually at the swing low,
20:51but you can slowly start messing around
20:53and just backtest these so you can get
20:55the statistics yourself. And number four
20:57is I'm really just going for one to two
20:59trades a day max. And what I mean by
21:01this is one win, I am done for the day
21:04and one loss, I am probably also done
21:06for the day, but there can be times
21:08where maybe I just get stop rated, maybe
21:10price trades into a new key level, so I
21:12could take another trade if everything
21:14aligns and if it's an A+ setup, but if I
21:16take two losses in a day, then I am done
21:18for the day. Now, fifth and final thing
21:20when it comes to executing and overall
21:22my risk management is that I'm only
21:24trading from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
21:26Eastern time. This is the golden hour
21:28for trading, especially with futures,
21:30especially with the Nasdaq, and this is
21:32just the peak hours of trading. It is
21:34very very rare I'll execute 11:00.
21:36That's really only if 9:30 to 11:00 has
21:39been really bad, then I'll execute past
21:4011:00 and if we generated a lot of
21:42liquidity. But again, nine times out of
21:4410, I'm trading that 9:30 to 11:00 a.m.
21:46window. That being said, this is the
21:48fourth and final section. It is now time
21:50to hop into some live trade examples so
21:52I can show you guys all of the steps
21:54combined from the bias to the key levels
21:57to the IFEG entry and finally the
22:00execution and the risk management. So,
22:02let's get into it. So, I'll show you
22:04guys the trades that I took from today
22:06and let's just start off at 9:30.
22:08Overall bias is what? Very bullish,
22:11right? We're clearly respecting this
22:12bullish 4-hour gap, disrespecting these
22:14gaps in this range right here. So,
22:16bullish bias, most obvious swing high is
22:18right here. We are probably going for
22:20this external swing high. Now, for key
22:22levels, I'm really looking at this
22:24intermediate low inside of this gap. Why
22:26do I like this low so much? Because it
22:28is resting around EQ of this range,
22:30right? you can see it's below discount.
22:32We can also trade into this rejection
22:34wick, right? That's also a key level.
22:35But we play out open here. Now, we do
22:37end up trading lower to this
22:38intermediate low and we form that
22:40bullish SMT. I was just previously
22:42talking about this in that key level
22:43part, but as you can see, ES, right? We
22:45traded into that low. We formed a
22:47bullish SMT here because ES took it out,
22:49Nasdaq didn't. So, beautiful, we hit a
22:50key level and now we want to see
22:52distribution here from this key level.
22:53So, we can look at this swing high to
22:55this swing low that hit this key level
22:57and wait for the highest time frame
22:58inversion. Now, the highest time frame
23:00inversion from here was actually a
23:024-minute IFVG. So, you can see here we
23:05have a 1-minute range. We also have a
23:072-minute range. We have a 3-minute
23:09range. And we also have a 4-minute. And
23:11the 4-minute actually was right here.
23:13Let me play this out. And we get a good
23:14close. There was no 5-minute gap here.
23:16So, the 4-minute was the highest time
23:17frame. And this was a really good entry.
23:19Right? You can take this trade. I saw a
23:21bunch of people take this. You can put
23:22your stop loss at the low here. And you
23:24put a target for maybe around a 1 to
23:261.6. Maybe you can target all the way up
23:28there. But this was a really good entry.
23:30This ends up printing. This simply based
23:31off this model and the concepts that I
23:33taught you guys just now in this video.
23:35So, again, a lot of my students took
23:36this exact trade. But me personally, I
23:39wanted to see just a little bit more
23:41confirmation because I didn't love this
23:43stop loss. It was 124 points. It was a
23:46huge trade. And of course, this is a
23:47valid setup. But there are times where
23:49maybe I'll fade a trade like this
23:50because it's again just so big. And I
23:52want to see just a little bit more
23:53confirmation. So, I'm waiting for
23:55confirmation here. We end up going
23:56higher. And we actually create a
23:585-minute bullish for rally gap. And this
24:00is a beautiful 5-minute gap that gets
24:02created, right? Off of this hourly to me
24:05low, right? We have that higher time
24:06frame sponsorship, that higher time
24:08frame narrative. And I'll show you the
24:09two trades I took. This is the first
24:11initial setup that I end up taking. So,
24:13we traded down into this 5-minute
24:15bullish for rally gap. Right? What is
24:16the obvious draw on liquidity here? This
24:181-hour gap right here. We have an
24:20unfilled 1-hour right here as a draw on
24:22liquidity. So, we can just mark this
24:23out. Unfilled gaps are great DOLs. And
24:25what is the highest time frame in this
24:27manipulation leg? Do we have a 1-minute
24:29in this range? No. We actually do have a
24:3130-second. So, I did use a 30-second
24:33time frame here after trading into this
24:355-minute gap. And I waited for a close
24:36above this. And I have a break even
24:39point being this external little swing.
24:41Break even points are always really
24:42different for me, guys. It's majority of
24:44the time just at the manipulation leg.
24:47So, it'd be like this swing high. But
24:48sometimes when you have like a lot of
24:49stacked lower resistance liquidity, I'll
24:51put it at this. But yeah, I just waited
24:52for a price to close above this for
24:54rally gap. And I still like this close.
24:56It was good enough for me, so I entered
24:58right here with a market order. Put a
25:00stop loss at the low and put a TP at
25:02that unfilled 1-hour gap. Price ended up
25:04going here and then I ended up getting
25:06break even right around here. And you
25:08guys should just go back and watch the
25:09Kick stream, but this first trade ended
25:11up just stopping me at a break even. And
25:13from here, my bias is not necessarily
25:14wrong, but usually if we go back to my
25:16break even point, we're usually either
25:18going to go to that internal low inside
25:20of this gap, so we can write out there's
25:22a 5-minute internal low, or the overall
25:23ideal will just be invalidated
25:25altogether. But what we did here is we
25:26went back to that internal low and we
25:28got a really, really strong bullish
25:30reaction out of this. From here, this is
25:32another setup. So, there is a 30-second
25:34IFG here, but am I going to take this
25:36one? No. Why? Because there's a
25:371-minute. Is there a 2-minute in this
25:39range? No. So, the 1-minute here is the
25:40highest time frame. I entered a long
25:42position right here, put a stop loss
25:44here, and then I had a pretty high TP. I
25:47was going for an unfilled 15-minute gap
25:49and I was just pretty much trying to go
25:50back to all-time highs, which eventually
25:52this hit. I had a lot of confidence for
25:53this, but eventually I got stopped in
25:55profit around that 1:1 risk reward. So,
25:57pretty much the trade idea just ended up
25:59looking like this in the end. So,
26:00sometimes I'll manage my positions by
26:02trailing my stop loss, right? But as you
26:04can see, I went break even once we hit
26:06this high. So, we went break even there
26:07and then this absolutely ripped to TP.
26:10And again, you could have held this if
26:11you have more confidence. When it comes
26:12to, you know, taking profits and your
26:15stop losses, things like that, your
26:16break evens, it really just comes down
26:18to you and your confidence in the trade
26:19and the model. But yeah, this is one
26:21example I use and the key level is based
26:23off a 5-minute fair value gap and a
26:255-minute intermediate low. And then that
26:26higher time frame key level and
26:28sponsorship was based off of that higher
26:30time frame gap being that 1-hour
26:31intermediate low. Now, let's go into
26:33another trade example on a trade that I
26:35took just the day before this prior on
26:37Tuesday. So, Tuesday is such a great
26:40trade example because I had so many
26:42people in my comments and so many
26:44traders online that I've personally
26:46talking about this exact setup here and
26:48talking about how it was invalid because
26:50there was no key level because there was
26:52simply no fair value gap to sponsor this
26:54trade. But with this new addition to my
26:56strategy combining CISDs and rejection
26:59blocks, I'll show you here why the key
27:01level was actually picture perfect. So
27:04overall bias guys, higher time frame,
27:06there is that argument for a bullish
27:08narrative. And I'm not going to get too
27:09much into the bias on this trade, but
27:11overall we were just respecting a lot of
27:13bearish PD arrays and disrespecting
27:15bullish. And at this point I ended up
27:16having a bearish bias down towards this
27:18low right here. So a bearish bias and
27:20this is my main draw on liquidity. Now,
27:22when we look at this range right here,
27:25what do you guys see? If we go on the
27:27one hour chart, what is screaming out to
27:29you? So first things first, we have this
27:31one hour bearish fair value gap and
27:32combining with this we have a one hour
27:35bearish rejection block. So this is your
27:37bearish rejection block and aligning
27:40with this we also have what? A 15 minute
27:43change in state of delivery, right? This
27:45is that series of up close candles that
27:47traded into this one hour bearish fair
27:49value gap. We have a change in state of
27:51delivery with that as well. So 15 minute
27:53CISD as well as a bearish rejection
27:56block and these are two really, really
27:58strong key levels here. And you can see
28:00here price trades up and we perfectly
28:02tap into this bearish rejection wick.
28:04Now, we don't respect this five minute
28:06bearish fair value gap, but that is okay
28:07because there's no narrative behind this
28:09long, right? We are still bearish on the
28:11higher time frame. So as you can see we
28:13traded into this key level right here.
28:14We perfectly wick into this and you can
28:16mark out the swing low to the swing high
28:18that hit this key level. And the highest
28:20time frame inverse in this leg [music]
28:21is a one minute fair value gap. I end up
28:23taking this trade here, I put a stop
28:26right here at this swing high and I put
28:28my TP at this low hanging fruit around
28:30that one to a three RR and price
28:32absolutely dumps. I go break even around
28:34this point when we hit that internal low
28:36and beautiful trade. So hopefully this
28:38clears up a lot of questions that you
28:40guys probably had revolving around CISDs
28:42and rejection blocks and key levels. And
28:45before you make another video talking
28:47about how this trade wasn't valid, there
28:49wasn't any key levels, or just a lot of
28:51people in my kick chat telling me this,
28:53this updated strategy video hopefully
28:55clears up all of those questions and
28:57overall confusion. All right, so this is
28:59the final trade example of this updated
29:01strategy and we can look at the charts
29:03here and what are we clearly doing? We
29:04are very, very bullish, right? Again,
29:06we're just at all-time highs. We have
29:08been for the past like 3 months, but
29:10yeah. And what do I see in this range?
29:12Well, I see here in this range that we
29:14have an unfilled 15-minute for rally
29:16gap. This is an unmitigated for rally
29:18gap that we can use as our key level to
29:20send price higher. This is on the
29:2215-minute time frame and we overall have
29:24a really bullish bias. We have an
29:25external swing high here and let's see
29:27what price does. We end up accumulating,
29:29going lower and then we trade into this
29:3115-minute bullish gap, get a really
29:33strong rejection off of this and this is
29:35a trade I took. I ended up taking this
29:37long right here. I put a stop-loss
29:39around this swing low and I had a TP for
29:42a one-to-one risk-reward. There are
29:44times where maybe I don't have a
29:46one-to-one at this high. I would just
29:48simply move my take profit a little bit
29:50higher for that one-to-one risk-reward.
29:52And this is just such a great trade and
29:54overall, I really didn't care about
29:56getting more points than this. I was
29:58extremely confident in just this
30:00accumulation range and I didn't really
30:02love this high just because it
30:04previously traded into a new week
30:05opening gap. So, I was really confident
30:07in just this area right here, but I
30:09wasn't just 100% confident in this,
30:12which is why I just took profit at the
30:15low-hanging fruit at a one-to-one
30:16risk-reward. So, there are times again
30:18where maybe I'm just so freaking
30:19confident we're going for a draw and
30:20that's when I'll hold, but then there
30:22are times where maybe I'll just get that
30:23one-to-one risk-reward and I'll print
30:25right there off that. But that being
30:26said, you could have also played this
30:28trade, you know, using ES until ES takes
30:30out the high, which is at like 9:55. So,
30:33you could have closed the trade around
30:35here and then that could have printed
30:36you an extra like 10 points. And then we
30:38formed that bearish SMT at the swing
30:40high and then this trade eventually
30:42sends you back to break even, right? So,
30:44that's why it's so important to just
30:45take your piece of the pie wherever you
30:46feel comfortable at. And this is the
30:48trading strategy, right? Bullish bias,
30:5015-minute gap as your key level, highest
30:52time frame inversion of this
30:54manipulation leg. We have a 1-minute, we
30:56have a 2-minute. No, beautiful setup
30:58here. That being said, let's quickly
30:59recap so you have everything locked in.
31:01Number one, make sure you define your
31:03higher time frame bias and your higher
31:04time frame draw on liquidity. Number
31:06two, identify a valid key level in the
31:08market. be either a fair value gap, an
31:10intermediate high or low inside of a
31:12fair value gap, a CISD, or a rejection
31:15wick, or a rejection block. Step number
31:17three is waiting for that IFEG and
31:19having proper confirmation through the
31:21highest time frame inverse. And finally,
31:23the fourth step is just executing
31:25flawlessly and having that proper risk
31:27management so you can stay on side that
31:2970% win rate [music] statistic. So, now
31:31you can't complain about strategy
31:33anymore. It is tested, it's been proven.
31:35And your homework is that you are going
31:36to back test this yourself. You can do
31:38this using TradeZella. It's a great
31:39journaling software and back testing
