This Trading Strategy Could Change Your Life — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00This could change your life, so pay
- 0:01attention. In a typical move, if the
- 0:03candles are moving in one direction,
- 0:05essentially you're going to try and
- 0:06trade in that direction. But what
- 0:08happens is traders will end up taking a
- 0:10buy and wonder why price is coming lower
- 0:12before stopping them out. Because people
- 0:14think the market moves in a perfect
- 0:15cycle just like this. But the reality is
- 0:17it doesn't. What you actually need to
- 0:19wait for is price action to manipulate
- 0:21lower before it goes higher or
- 0:23manipulate higher before it goes lower.
- 0:25So what this essentially would look like
- 0:26is a new candle would open, come lower,
- 0:28sweeping below the previous candle, but
- 0:31closing higher, engulfing the previous
- 0:34candle. This is manipulation in the
- 0:36market and once you have this, it's a
- 0:38lot easier to place a trade with a stop
- 0:40loss below the manipulation low
- 0:42targeting a 1:2. The best place to find
- 0:44this is on a 4-hour time frame. So go
- 0:46and back test it and let me know how you
- 0:47get on in the comments.
- 0:48>> All right, so he told us to back test
- 0:50it, so let's build the indicator and
- 0:51back test it. So I used LuxAlgo Quant to
- 0:53build this exact strategy. I gave it a
- 0:55screenshot, explained exactly what he
- 0:57said, and it ended up being quite good.
- 0:59We have a 6K net profit, 46% win rate,
- 1:031.692 profit factor, and only a 1%
- 1:06drawdown with $1,600. So this equity
- 1:09curve is quite nice. And the crazy thing
- 1:11about using LuxAlgo Quant now is you can
- 1:14build out a strategy like this. You can
- 1:16see here we added actually a 200 EMA
- 1:18filter. I can see if I were to take that
- 1:20off, the strategy ends up being quite
- 1:22choppy. But just adding that trend
- 1:24filter really ends up giving it a nicer
- 1:27curve. So within the indicator, I
- 1:28actually had a setting to trade either
- 1:30the same direction of candles like he
- 1:31had here, all bullish or all bearish for
- 1:34that setup, or if you want to trade any.
- 1:36And you can see here on any, the net
- 1:38profit actually goes way up, but only
- 1:40recently was it really performing. He
- 1:42also had his stop loss at the candle
- 1:45high, as you can see here, and then a
- 1:472R, which we have with the risk-reward
- 1:50ratio. But from here now, we can mess
- 1:52around with the setting. After going
- 1:54through a lot of different types of stop
- 1:56losses and take profits, I noticed that
- 1:58not using the candle high and low is the
- 1:59best. Having an ATR of a five multiplier
- 2:03with a three risk to reward, we're
- 2:05getting a even better curve, 55% win
- 2:07rate, 10K net profit, 2.3K drawdowns. We
- 2:10can also adjust the time frame, and we
- 2:12can test different time frames. And you
- 2:14notice here on a five minute, we
- 2:15actually have a really nice negative
- 2:17curve. So, I could say to the chat, "Can
- 2:19we switch the entry conditions?" And
- 2:22then what it'll do is it'll switch those
- 2:24entries conditions, can see how it
- 2:25performs on the opposite. And look at
- 2:27that, just by asking it to switch it,
- 2:29look at this really nice positive curve
- 2:31of a 2.58 profit factor, 68% win rate,
- 2:35$300
- 2:36max drawdown. So, actually quite
- 2:38interesting at the lower time frame
- 2:40works on the opposite end. So, that's
- 2:42the nice thing about using LuxAlgo
- 2:43Quant, you can chat with it and update
- 2:45strategies in real time in a matter of
- 2:47minutes. But like always, I want to
- 2:49share this exact chat that I used to
- 2:51build this strategy. You're going to get
- 2:53the strategy source code here that you
- 2:54can actually pull into TradingView if
- 2:56you want. Just comment the word strat,
- 2:58and I'll send you a link.
