The Last Trading Model You'll Ever Need (DTE Method Explained) — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00All right, welcome back to the channel,
- 0:01guys. Today we have a very special
- 0:03video. I'm going to be going over my DTE
- 0:07model. Now, if you guys have watched
- 0:08some of my videos before, then you know
- 0:10that I like to trade fair value gaps,
- 0:12specifically higher time frame fair
- 0:13value gaps for price to react from and
- 0:15then trading inversion fair value gaps
- 0:17as an entry model. Now, I have
- 0:19simplified my entire trading strategy
- 0:21into a model I call the DTE model. This
- 0:24includes both reversals and
- 0:26continuations. And the best part about
- 0:27this is that it's literally so damn
- 0:30simple. Okay, will you win every single
- 0:31trade? No. In fact, I'm going to show
- 0:33you guys uh some trades that we took
- 0:35today. One of which I ended up losing.
- 0:37So, it does not have a 100% win rate.
- 0:39But this is the model that I have been
- 0:41using over the past couple of years. And
- 0:43also the model that our newest analyst
- 0:45Joe or Pixie uses to get results like
- 0:48this. This is from June and July. So,
- 0:50nearly a 90% uh winning day percentage
- 0:53using this model. Okay, so let's jump
- 0:55right into it. So here is the DTE model.
- 0:58Okay, what does this mean? Well, we have
- 0:59to start with the D which is for
- 1:01delivery. Okay, I would like to see
- 1:03price delivering or reacting from a
- 1:07higher time frame fair value gap. Okay,
- 1:10this is a non-negotiable. If I don't see
- 1:12price delivering from a higher time
- 1:14frame fair value gap, I do not enter the
- 1:16trade. Doesn't matter what time frame
- 1:18I'm entering, I need to have high time
- 1:20frame alignment plus low time frame
- 1:21alignment. So for this, I use the 4
- 1:23hour, the 1 hour, and the 15-minute. You
- 1:25could go down to a 5minute as well if
- 1:27you are trading continuations. So always
- 1:29ask yourself is price delivering from a
- 1:30higher time frame fair value gap. For
- 1:32example, if you are inside of a 1 hour
- 1:34or a 4 hour fair value gap, you should
- 1:36only be looking for longs and vice
- 1:38versa. Okay, after that we have the
- 1:40target. You have to be asking yourself,
- 1:42do I have a target for this trade? Okay,
- 1:44so as a target I like to see something
- 1:46called LRL or low resistance liquidity
- 1:49leading up to my high time frame DOL.
- 1:53I'll get into what low resistance
- 1:54liquidity is in just a moment. But a
- 1:56high time frame DOL is going to be where
- 1:58you expect price to go to for that day.
- 2:00A high time frame DOL is going to be a
- 2:02session high, a previous day high, an
- 2:04untapped higher time frame for a value
- 2:06gap, wherever price is trending towards.
- 2:08Okay. And finally, last but not least,
- 2:10we have the E, which stands for
- 2:12execution. Okay. Okay, if you guys have
- 2:14been watching videos on this channel for
- 2:16any amount of time now, you guys should
- 2:17know that I love trading IFGS,
- 2:20specifically Vspike or V-shaped IFG,
- 2:23which is just an IFG within six candles
- 2:27with really nice displacement with
- 2:28really nice volume behind that
- 2:30inversion. That is my execution. And
- 2:32guys, this is the DTE model. Okay, let's
- 2:35jump into what this actually looks like
- 2:37on a real chart. So on my chart here, I
- 2:39have five trades using the DTE model.
- 2:42Okay, I took four of these. One of them
- 2:44I took on a funded account which ended
- 2:45up being a stopout trade. Again, full
- 2:48transparency, no trading model has a
- 2:49100% win rate. And this one follows the
- 2:51DTE model perfectly. Uh, unfortunately,
- 2:53I just missed this one as well. And the
- 2:56rest I ended up passing some evals with.
- 2:58By the way, these trades were called
- 3:00live in the Discord and called by our
- 3:02trading indicator called the
- 3:03manipulation XV7 indicator. If I pull up
- 3:06the indicator, you can see it called all
- 3:07of these except for this first trade
- 3:09here. So, we are going to remove all
- 3:10drawings here and go back into replay
- 3:13mode here. And to start, guys, we always
- 3:14want to go to a higher time frame.
- 3:17Right? The reason we're going to a
- 3:18higher time frame is looking for that
- 3:19higher time frame delivery. We're simply
- 3:21marking out our 4hour fair value gaps.
- 3:24Okay? So, I can see currently we are
- 3:25inside of a 4hour bearish fair value gap
- 3:28right here. And we also have an untapped
- 3:30or an unmitigated 4hour fair value gap
- 3:32below. So, my bias coming into the
- 3:34market today is I'm looking for short
- 3:36positions from this 4hour bearish gap
- 3:38back down to this 4hour bullish and then
- 3:40potentially continue the trend higher
- 3:42because we are bullish on a higher time
- 3:43frame. But I'm not interested in taking
- 3:45longs until one, we get a 4hour closure
- 3:48above this bearish for value gap or two,
- 3:50we take longs on a lower time frame
- 3:52inside of this 4hour bullish gap. That's
- 3:54what I mean when I talk about higher
- 3:55time frame delivery. Okay, now let's
- 3:57drop down to a 1 hour time frame and
- 3:59mark out our other fair value gaps.
- 4:01Okay, I do not have any untapped fair
- 4:03value gaps on a 1 hour time frame. I
- 4:05just have the 4 hour for now. Now, I'm
- 4:07going to drop down to the 15-minute time
- 4:09frame. This is where I'm starting to
- 4:10mark out my draws on liquidity. And I
- 4:12can see we have a ton of low resistance
- 4:15liquidity leading up to my higher time
- 4:18frame draw on liquidity, which is going
- 4:20to be this untapped 4hour fair value
- 4:22gap. So, at this point, I have my
- 4:23delivery, which is this 4hour fair value
- 4:26gap, right? 4hour fair value gap which
- 4:28is going to be the delivery which is
- 4:30right here. I'm going to mark this out.
- 4:32Make this a little bit smaller. Okay,
- 4:34cool. And we have our T for target,
- 4:37right? We have our target right here
- 4:39which is going to be low resistance
- 4:41liquidity or a series of untapped lows.
- 4:43I've already made videos going over what
- 4:45lower resistance liquidity is leading up
- 4:48to high time frame DO which is going to
- 4:51be this untapped 4hour fair value gap
- 4:55plus the equal lows that we have below.
- 4:57Okay, so I'm looking for a move from
- 4:59here to here. I also see that we had
- 5:01this data low on my chart as well. Okay,
- 5:04a data low is just the candle that is
- 5:06formed during red folder news. So we had
- 5:08NFP news this morning. This is always a
- 5:10strong draw in liquidity. This brings me
- 5:12into the first trade that I ended up
- 5:14taking, which was this V-shaped 5minute
- 5:16inversion. Bringing us to step number
- 5:18three, which is E for execution, which
- 5:21is going to be a V-shaped IFG with
- 5:24displacement, right? Displacement just
- 5:26means a really nice volume candle. Here,
- 5:28you can see that this inversion fair
- 5:30value gap is within six candles. This
- 5:32was the first trade of the day that I
- 5:34called out in the stream at around 9:00
- 5:35a.m. This was an eval trade because my
- 5:37trading rules is that I don't trade on
- 5:39funded until the market open. And this
- 5:41one ended up smashing TP for a 1:22.
- 5:44Again, using the DTE model, higher time
- 5:46frame delivery with our lower resistance
- 5:48liquidity leading into our higher time
- 5:49frame drawn liquidity. Finally using
- 5:51that V-shaped IFG for our entry. Okay,
- 5:54this brings us into trade number two of
- 5:57the day, which was this 1 minute short
- 5:59position that we got right here. Now,
- 6:01this trade in particular ended up being
- 6:03a stopout trade, but this was an A+
- 6:05trade setup, guys. Okay, you will have
- 6:07statistical losses. Again, nothing has a
- 6:09100% win rate. We had a 1.7R hour short
- 6:11position back down to this data low. We
- 6:14had a very clear break even level. And
- 6:16if we go to a higher time frame, we can
- 6:18see that we are now delivering off of a
- 6:2015-minute bearish fair value gap. Here
- 6:23we can see a little bit better on the
- 6:2415-minute time frame. We created that
- 6:26fair value gap. We perfectly test this
- 6:28fair value gap. Keep in mind this
- 6:3015-minute is actually sponsored by the
- 6:324our. So, we technically don't need to
- 6:34see a stop hunt or a liquidity sweep to
- 6:36enter this trade. You can see we had
- 6:38that IFG within six candles. And if we
- 6:40let this trade play out, this one ended
- 6:42up being a stop out unfortunately on the
- 6:44funded accounts today. Bringing us to
- 6:46trade number three, which was a re-entry
- 6:48idea called by our pro analyst Joe
- 6:50because it was a Friday today, guys. I
- 6:52was a one and done. I did not want to
- 6:54put on any more risk. I was happy with
- 6:56this trade. I understood the risk
- 6:57involved. But we ended up getting
- 6:58another trade to follow right after.
- 7:01Okay, you can see our indicator also
- 7:02alerted the short position for this
- 7:04trade right here. This is the same exact
- 7:06entry model as the first trade, except
- 7:08now you have something called a
- 7:10protected high. A protected high just
- 7:12means you have a liquidity sweep inside
- 7:13of a higher time frame for a value gap
- 7:15as your stop loss. And the good thing
- 7:17about this re-entry is that we have now
- 7:18generated a ton more low resistance
- 7:20liquidity leading into our higher time
- 7:22frame DOL. And if we let price play out,
- 7:24you can see that this one ended up
- 7:26hitting full take profit as well using
- 7:28the DTE model. So at this point in time,
- 7:30guys, we have now swept out the data
- 7:32low. But if we go to a 4hour time frame,
- 7:35we still have that untapped 4hour fair
- 7:37value gap with all of that low
- 7:39resistance liquidity leading up to it.
- 7:41So all I'm waiting for at this point,
- 7:42guys, is for price to sweep into this
- 7:444hour fair value gap and look for a
- 7:46V-shaped reversal with low resistance
- 7:48liquidity leading into that inversion.
- 7:50We're using higher time from delivery,
- 7:51which is that 4hour fair value gap. Step
- 7:53number two is target. So I'm looking for
- 7:55that lower resistance liquidity. And
- 7:57step number three, I'm looking for my
- 7:58entry. And you can see here we end up
- 8:00tapping into that 4hour fair value gap.
- 8:05And during this move down, we end up
- 8:07creating a 2minut bearish fair value
- 8:09gap. You always want to make sure you're
- 8:10taking the highest time frame inversion
- 8:12in the leg in most cases. So we've
- 8:14created a 2-minute fair value gap. We've
- 8:16taken out some of these pre-market lows.
- 8:18We've taken out these 8 a.m. lows. And
- 8:20you can see on this candle right here,
- 8:22we get a V-shaped inversion. Let's go to
- 8:24a 3minut. Okay, we actually had a 3minut
- 8:25bearish for a value gap, which is even
- 8:27better. So this is going to be our entry
- 8:29on a threeminute Vshape because this is
- 8:31a low that is swept inside of a fair
- 8:33value gap. This is also a protected low.
- 8:35So we can put our stop loss at this low.
- 8:37We can use this untapped 5minute fair
- 8:38value gap as a break even and simply
- 8:40target a 1:1 risk-to-reward. And you can
- 8:42see that this one ends up smacking
- 8:44takeprofit within literally a few
- 8:46minutes guys. This brings us into trade
- 8:48number five using the DTE model. Okay,
- 8:51you can see that we are generating all
- 8:52of this low resistance liquidity here to
- 8:55the upside. And keep in mind our higher
- 8:56time frame is bullish and we are already
- 8:58reacting from a 4hour fair value gap.
- 9:00This is where we can use something
- 9:02called the continuation model which is
- 9:03wait for price to retrace into our
- 9:05discounted zone. Do we have higher time
- 9:07frame delivery? Yes, we do with this
- 9:095minute bullish fair value gap. So now
- 9:11we have delivery, we have target above
- 9:13us with that low resistance. All we're
- 9:15waiting for now is a V-shaped inversion
- 9:17which we get right here. We have a
- 9:19really nice V-shaped inversion. We also
- 9:21had another V-shaped inversion before
- 9:23this one. So, both of these trades were
- 9:25valid. Because you have a liquidity
- 9:26sweep inside of a higher time frame for
- 9:28a value gap, your stop loss is
- 9:30technically protected at this low right
- 9:32here. And in this case, I'm going to
- 9:33target this high right here as my full
- 9:35TP. And we let price play out. And this
- 9:37one ends up hitting TP as well. Well
- 9:40guys, that is going to be it for the DTE
- 9:42model, which I believe is the only
- 9:43strategy that you guys should be using.
- 9:45Keep in mind, guys, every single trade
- 9:46is going to have its own context. But if
- 9:49you make sure that you have higher time
- 9:50frame delivery, low time frame draws and
- 9:52liquidity, and are waiting for a
- 9:53V-shaped IFG before you enter a trade,
- 9:56it really does mitigate like 80% of
- 9:58losses that you otherwise would take
- 9:59because you're waiting for so much
- 10:00alignment and confluence before you get
- 10:02into the trade. Guys, that's going to do
- 10:03it for this video. If you want to follow
