The Easiest Day Trading Strategy Part 2 — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:0010 days ago, I posted a video about the
- 0:02easiest day trading strategy that I've
- 0:04ever thought of. This video is going to
- 0:06be a follow-up of how that strategy has
- 0:09performed over the last 10 days. Since
- 0:11then, every day, Monday through Friday,
- 0:13I've been posting screenshots of the
- 0:16trade entry and trade exit on my
- 0:18Telegram group. If you guys aren't
- 0:19familiar with the rules, let me do a
- 0:21quick recap for you. It'll just take me
- 0:222 seconds. Essentially, we draw a single
- 0:25box around the Tokyo session and if
- 0:28price breaks below it with a fivem
- 0:30minute candle close, we enter short. Or
- 0:32if the five-minute candle closes above
- 0:34the range, we go long. Our stop loss is
- 0:37calculated from entry and we measure the
- 0:40entire Tokyo range. And if it's 14 pips,
- 0:43our stop loss is 7 pips. We're not doing
- 0:45half of the range, we're doing half of
- 0:47the value of the range. So the first
- 0:49trade September 28th, we entered, we
- 0:52retraced, we went into profit, and then
- 0:54it shot up and we hit our stop-loss. The
- 0:56whole goal of this project is so that
- 0:59each one of you has a way to trade once
- 1:02a day, and we're doing a 30-day
- 1:04challenge of trade every single day to
- 1:07actually get the feeling of the emotions
- 1:09and being active in the markets every
- 1:11single day with a rules-based strategy.
- 1:14Not to mention the easiest rules-based
- 1:16strategy on Earth. The next one on
- 1:19Telegram, I wrote instead of showing the
- 1:22trade setup, I'm sorry, but I can't
- 1:24recommend the trade for today. This is a
- 1:27massive candle that broke out of the
- 1:28range, but the risk-to-reward at this
- 1:30point doesn't make sense. And then I
- 1:32said specifically, never ever enter on
- 1:34these massive candles. As you can see,
- 1:37this one singular candle was 12 pips. In
- 1:40comparison to all the candles next to
- 1:42it, it is gigantic. So, we did not trade
- 1:45on Tuesday the 29th because your stop
- 1:47loss would have been like there and that
- 1:50doesn't make sense. The next trade,
- 1:52September 30th, we had a fivem minute
- 1:54candle break out of the range. Stop loss
- 1:56was half the distance of the Tokyo
- 1:59session which kept us below the moving
- 2:01average as the price started to trend
- 2:03up. We did have quite a bit of draw down
- 2:05on this one, but eventually it went up
- 2:07to take profit. All of these trades are
- 2:09going to be a 1:2 risk-to-reward ratio.
- 2:11So, if you're risking seven pips, your
- 2:13take-profit is 14 pips. We had another
- 2:16breakout candle, and this candle just
- 2:18barely closed outside of the range. I
- 2:20actually sent this one out 8 minutes
- 2:22late because I was on the phone with my
- 2:24wife, but price did retrace by the time
- 2:26I posted it to the original entry. So,
- 2:29not only did I get in, everybody else
- 2:30got in also. This trade hit some massive
- 2:33resistance at a major bank level, 1.130,
- 2:37and then decided to cascade down
- 2:38afterwards. I actually ended up getting
- 2:40out early because my emotions got the
- 2:42best of me. Friday's trade also went
- 2:44into profit about one R then reversed on
- 2:47us and did hit stop-loss. So with the
- 2:49first week and not trading one of the
- 2:51days, we got two winners and two losers.
- 2:55So theoretically two winners gives you
- 2:57plus 4%, two losers gives you minus 2%
- 3:01netting you 2% for that week. Now, the
- 3:03interesting thing was the following
- 3:05Monday, I woke up at 6:00 a.m. and I
- 3:07immediately saw that the Tokyo session
- 3:09had absolutely tanked EuroUSD. Right
- 3:12away, I went online to see what the hell
- 3:14was going on. And I posted on Telegram,
- 3:16do not trade breakout range today. The
- 3:18range is 94 pips right now. And what had
- 3:21happened was the euro basically got
- 3:24devalued overnight because everybody was
- 3:26panicking about France not being able to
- 3:28repay its debts. So, luckily, we didn't
- 3:30even get a breakout during this day.
- 3:32price just basically consolidated in the
- 3:34middle of the Tokyo session range. Now
- 3:36we have Tuesday, October 6th. Tiny
- 3:39little breakout, immediately went into
- 3:41profit and then violently went the
- 3:44opposite direction. So another loss and
- 3:46then today the final breakout of the 10
- 3:49days so far. Price just barely broke out
- 3:51of the range on the 5-minute chart.
- 3:53Corrected up just a little bit, but then
- 3:55shot back down. And this trade was done
- 3:57in 1 hour and 45 minutes. Now, the
- 4:00reason why I'm recommending this
- 4:02strategy is one, because anybody can do
- 4:04it. Literally, this is
- 4:07ridiculously easy. Two, because I want
- 4:10you to participate in the markets every
- 4:12single day so that you can get used to
- 4:14it. So, you can get comfortable with it.
- 4:16And so, you can actually take
- 4:17rules-based trades every single day. And
- 4:20I didn't mention this before, but we're
- 4:22only doing this on a demo account. I
- 4:24just want you to get the repetitions in.
- 4:26This is basically going to the gym and
- 4:27training. So we had two no trade days
- 4:30and then we had three losers and three
- 4:33winners. Three winners is plus 6%, three
- 4:37losers is minus 3%. So overall we are up
- 4:413% in the last 10 days. I don't know
- 4:44about you but that is actually really
- 4:47really good. Even 3 or 4% per month is
- 4:49really really good. So, if you've been
- 4:51struggling with when or where to enter
- 4:54in on any asset that you're trading
- 4:57throughout the week or throughout the
- 4:59day, give this a try. I'm only going to
- 5:01be posting these for another 20 days
- 5:02because it's a 30-day challenge and
- 5:04we're already done with 10 of them. But,
- 5:05I want you guys to get better and I want
- 5:07you to practice. Now, if you want more
- 5:10knowledge and more education, one of the
- 5:12best places to learn how to trade online
- 5:15is the trading floor. They have a
- 5:18comprehensive entire system like a
- 5:21syllabus that takes you from where you
- 5:23are now to where you want to be a
- 5:25profitable trader. And if you follow
- 5:27their road map step by step, the ending
- 5:30steps of that road map is actually
- 5:33taking profitable trades. So you can't
- 5:36actually complete the process without
- 5:39having some profitable trades. And
- 5:40that's the best thing. You learn the
- 5:43theory, you implement those theories
- 5:46into practice, and you actually convert
- 5:49all of that education into actual live
- 5:52trades that are profitable. Whether
- 5:55you're trading price action, market
- 5:57structure, support and resistance, or
- 5:59RSI divergences like me, this is the
- 6:02place where you're going to learn
- 6:03everything. And if you guys are
- 6:05interested in trading the orb strategy,
- 6:07the opening range breakout, I know a lot
- 6:09of you guys heard about this online.
- 6:11It's extremely popular. They just
- 6:14released a new orb indicator. So if you
- 6:17like trading orb, check this one out. My
- 6:19favorite is actually Happy Trail on a
- 6:2130inut time frame using case 4 on German
- 6:2440, which is essentially like the US's
- 6:27Dow Jones. You get signals to enter and
- 6:29you can ride massive waves with this.
