  1. 0:00All right. In today's video, um I'm
  2. 0:03going to start a whole simple price
  3. 0:06action course on YouTube for free for
  4. 0:09you to understand what trading is. Um
  5. 0:13first of all, trading to basically help
  6. 0:16you make it as simple as possible.
  7. 0:19Trading is where you buy at a certain
  8. 0:23price or sell. You can buy or sell at a
  9. 0:26certain price. And if price goes up, so
  10. 0:29let's say if you get into a buy. So
  11. 0:31let's say you get into this buy. We're
  12. 0:34going to mark this
  13. 0:36as
  14. 0:39buy. Make this bigger for you for all my
  15. 0:42newbies. And it's okay to be a newbie.
  16. 0:44We was all there once once in our loves.
  17. 0:47But um let's say you're in a buy and
  18. 0:50this is price. So this is price you're
  19. 0:52going to see fluctuating. These are
  20. 0:53called candlesticks, by the way. So,
  21. 0:56these are candlesticks. You're going to
  22. 0:57see these a lot. Trust me, every single
  23. 0:59day, you're going to see these. And
  24. 1:01these candlesticks will go up and down
  25. 1:03constantly. Now, depending on the time
  26. 1:05frame that you're on, and we're going to
  27. 1:07talk about time frames later on, but
  28. 1:09depending on the time frame that you are
  29. 1:10on, this will fluctuate either fast or
  30. 1:13slow. Now, this is very important. Write
  31. 1:16this down. Depending on what time frame
  32. 1:18you're on, this will move either fast or
  33. 1:21slow. So once again, depending on what
  34. 1:25time frame you are on, these will move
  35. 1:28fast or
  36. 1:30slow. Now, with this being said, if you
  37. 1:33are in a buy, so if you place a buy,
  38. 1:36there's going to be most likely a blue
  39. 1:38button. If you place a buy, this price
  40. 1:42has to go above this level, above the
  41. 1:45price that you said it was going to buy
  42. 1:47above. It has to go above this level in
  43. 1:49order for you to make money, right?
  44. 1:53So that's just the plain and simple way.
  45. 1:55And then vice versa. So if you think
  46. 1:56it's going to sell, right? If you think
  47. 2:00it's going to sell, this
  48. 2:03price has to go under that level that
  49. 2:07you said price is going to sell under.
  50. 2:09So if you said it's going to sell under
  51. 2:10this this level, it has to go under this
  52. 2:13level and then you make money, right? So
  53. 2:15that's just what trading is. I'm not
  54. 2:18going to get into like you can go chat
  55. 2:20GBT and Google the rest. But that's the
  56. 2:23basic dummy version of what trading is.
  57. 2:26If you pick a point and you say price is
  58. 2:28going to go above it, then you make
  59. 2:30money if it goes above it. If you say
  60. 2:32it's going to go under it, then you make
  61. 2:34money if it goes under it. Now, this is
  62. 2:37not
  63. 2:38gambling. Your moms, your dads, your
  64. 2:40aunties are going to look at trading as
  65. 2:42gambling. People are going to tell you
  66. 2:44that trading is gambling. But I am going
  67. 2:46to show you that trading is not
  68. 2:49gambling. And you can have a
  69. 2:52strategic
  70. 2:54logical reason and analysis of why you
  71. 2:58think price is either going to go up or
  72. 3:00down. And throughout this course, I'm
  73. 3:04going to show you time and time and time
  74. 3:07again that it happens over and over and
  75. 3:10over. And no, I'm not always right. So,
  76. 3:14no, I'm not always right, but I've been
  77. 3:17doing this for four years. I've made
  78. 3:18over $14 million from trading. I haven't
  79. 3:21sold a course. I don't sell any courses.
  80. 3:23I don't sell any signals. Um, I don't do
  81. 3:26any of that. I'm just here to show you
  82. 3:28that trading is possible. Trading is
  83. 3:31something that you can take and learn
  84. 3:34and you can do it for the rest of your
  85. 3:36life. Like I think if I started with
  86. 3:37zero dollars, I would pick back up my
  87. 3:40phone, probably get a job, make like a
  88. 3:42100red, 200 bucks, and put it into a
  89. 3:44trading account and try my best to make
  90. 3:47money from it. So, right now, I don't
  91. 3:49know if I can show you. Um I don't know
  92. 3:51if you will see it this way, but right
  93. 3:53now,
  94. 3:54um I can't see my screen, so I don't
  95. 3:56know if you can see my screen, but right
  96. 3:58now, I am floating $2,000.
  97. 4:01It is 10:30 a.m. and I am just trading,
  98. 4:05right? I think price is going to go up.
  99. 4:08So, I don't know if you can see my
  100. 4:10screen, but I think price is going to go
  101. 4:12up. As you can see, I have a buy in.
  102. 4:15Once again, I'm not sure if you can
  103. 4:16really see my screen, but I'm in a buy
  104. 4:19right now. I think price is going to go
  105. 4:22up and it is making me money. $2,000. As
  106. 4:26you can see, it fluctuate. And over
  107. 4:28time, you'll have emotions, have all
  108. 4:29these things going in your head as
  109. 4:31you're making money. But later down the
  110. 4:33course, I will explain. I don't know how
  111. 4:36many videos this is going to be, but
  112. 4:38every time I make a video, excuse me,
  113. 4:41every time I make a video, I'm going
  114. 4:42just throw it in there if it is, you
  115. 4:44know, seems fit. So, with this being
  116. 4:47said, since you already know a little
  117. 4:49bit about trading, you already should um
  118. 4:53feel a little bit comfortable. you don't
  119. 4:55know exactly what you're getting to
  120. 4:57into, but I'm going to show you. So,
  121. 4:59first and
  122. 5:01foremost, you are going to need a Forex
  123. 5:04broker. You're going to need Trading
  124. 5:06View, and you're going to need a uh just
  125. 5:10Wi-Fi in general, right? You're just
  126. 5:11going to need those things. I have a
  127. 5:13broker link down below that you can use.
  128. 5:15You don't have to use mine. It's okay. I
  129. 5:17don't care. Or and you can use Trading
  130. 5:20View as well. Trading View, you need
  131. 5:22This is what we're on right now. Trading
  132. 5:23View, you need this. All right, so those
  133. 5:26things you need, get out the way. And
  134. 5:28make sure you also get a crypto
  135. 5:30brokerage as well. I personally use
  136. 5:32Coinbase. I've been using Coinbase for a
  137. 5:34while now. I've also used Kraken. Um,
  138. 5:38you can use that too as well, but I I
  139. 5:40like Coinbase now because they have
  140. 5:42instant withdrawals, so it's pretty
  141. 5:44good. But this is how you're going to
  142. 5:45deposit and withdraw your money into
  143. 5:48your bank account and out of your bank
  144. 5:50account, vice versa. So, if you want to
  145. 5:51deposit, you're going to buy Bitcoin.
  146. 5:54Once you buy the Bitcoin, you're going
  147. 5:55to deposit into your broker. And then
  148. 5:57when you're ready to withdraw after
  149. 5:58you've made money from trading, you'll
  150. 6:00withdraw from your broker into your
  151. 6:02crypto portfolio and then into your bank
  152. 6:04account. So, with all that being said,
  153. 6:08you're probably asking yourself, okay,
  154. 6:10how do I trade? Right? So, I'm going to
  155. 6:14start off with the basics, the
  156. 6:15fundamentals. And this video is very
  157. 6:17very important because the fundamentals
  158. 6:19are very very important. It's like
  159. 6:21dribbling a basketball. Like you have to
  160. 6:24know how to dribble before you start
  161. 6:26doing the crossovers and the and the
  162. 6:28hizzys and the and the and the shazams
  163. 6:31and all that, right? I don't know
  164. 6:32anything about basketball. I don't care.
  165. 6:34Um but you need the fundamentals. You
  166. 6:38need to know how to dribble. So I'm
  167. 6:39going to show you how to dribble. Right?
  168. 6:41So two things uptrends downtrends and
  169. 6:46three things actually up uptrends
  170. 6:48downtrends consolidation know the three
  171. 6:51know when these three are happening this
  172. 6:54will save you from a lot and this is
  173. 6:56what this video is going to be about
  174. 6:57uptrends downtrends consolidation how to
  175. 7:01identify right so first uptrends or
  176. 7:04downtrends we're going to start with
  177. 7:05first right
  178. 7:08downtrends now we are going to Look at
  179. 7:11this and we're going to tell ourselves
  180. 7:14this is a downtrend. Say this to
  181. 7:16yourself right now. This is a
  182. 7:18downtrend. You say it to yourself.
  183. 7:21Whatever I'm looking at, so I'm you
  184. 7:24right now. Whatever I'm looking at, I'm
  185. 7:27going to see this as a downtrend. So
  186. 7:29repeat that to yourself. Whatever I'm
  187. 7:32looking at, I see this and it is a
  188. 7:34downtrend. That's first and foremost.
  189. 7:37Now answer the question, why do I see
  190. 7:40this as a downtrend? Right? This is
  191. 7:42where you start to learn. Now a
  192. 7:44downtrend consists of lower lows and
  193. 7:47lower highs. So in this case, this is a
  194. 7:50lower
  195. 7:53high and this is a
  196. 7:56lower low, right? Why do we call this a
  197. 8:02lower low and a lower high? Now first
  198. 8:05you need to remember there is highs and
  199. 8:09there is lows.
  200. 8:12Right? Right. These are two two things
  201. 8:14that I I look at. Lows highs highs lows.
  202. 8:18Right. You start off with these and this
  203. 8:20is what will determine if a you get a
  204. 8:24lower high or a low lower low. So let's
  205. 8:27say we have a low in this situation.
  206. 8:29This will be a low, right? So, this is
  207. 8:33our low. Let's just say this is our
  208. 8:37low. Why is this our low? So, we're
  209. 8:40going to backtrack and we're going to
  210. 8:42show you this. I'm going to show you
  211. 8:43like this. This is our
  212. 8:45low. Why is this our low? Because price
  213. 8:49got to a certain point. It got to a
  214. 8:52certain certain decline,
  215. 8:55decrease, and it pivoted. So, this is
  216. 8:58the lowest point we can be low, right?
  217. 9:00This is the lowest point we can be also
  218. 9:03with the high. This is our highest point
  219. 9:06that we can be.
  220. 9:08Right? This is the highest point that we
  221. 9:11can be. Now, this is where you can
  222. 9:14identify trends. This is where you start
  223. 9:15to be able to identify trends. Right?
  224. 9:17So, with this low and with this high, we
  225. 9:21can now say, okay, price has reached a
  226. 9:24certain level and this is our low, this
  227. 9:27is our high. Now how we can determine
  228. 9:29what a trend is is because we'll get
  229. 9:31this but then what comes next will
  230. 9:33determine the trend. So if we have this
  231. 9:35low and we have this high if price
  232. 9:38breaks the low right if price breaks the
  233. 9:42low this now becomes our lower
  234. 9:47low. Lower low. This is lower than the
  235. 9:51previous low. Common sense lower than
  236. 9:54our previous low. So this would make our
  237. 9:57lower low right. Same thing with lower
  238. 10:00highs. So if our high is made and it is
  239. 10:06lower than the previous high, then this
  240. 10:08would be our lower high. Right? This is
  241. 10:11our lower high.
  242. 10:13Now from this point on, this is where
  243. 10:17the downtrend continues or this is where
  244. 10:20everything will play into part. Later
  245. 10:22on, I'm going to get into ICC, which is
  246. 10:24the way that I trade. It's a three-step
  247. 10:26process that basically shows you how I
  248. 10:29enter, exit, and use a stop-loss. All
  249. 10:32these terms will be learned later on
  250. 10:34down the line. But I'm just going to
  251. 10:35show you the fundamentals of a trend
  252. 10:38because you need to know this first. You
  253. 10:40need to learn how to dribble the ball
  254. 10:42before you can start doing crossovers,
  255. 10:44shimmies, layups, and [ __ ]
  256. 10:45three-point shots, right? So, this is
  257. 10:47what you need to know first.
  258. 10:50So, with this being said, we're going to
  259. 10:53have our lower high and then we're going
  260. 10:55to have another lower low, lower high,
  261. 10:58lower low. So, take your time to look at
  262. 11:01this. Um, let me go
  263. 11:04back. Take your time to look at
  264. 11:07this and say this is a trend. This is a
  265. 11:12downtrend.
  266. 11:15Now, before I start showing you candles
  267. 11:17and stuff, we'll probably make that into
  268. 11:18another video. But before I start
  269. 11:20showing you
  270. 11:22candles, this is a downtrend. So, go
  271. 11:25ahead and classify this as a
  272. 11:30downtrend, right?
  273. 11:33Downtrends. And this same way can be
  274. 11:37used. So, we can take
  275. 11:39this, we can copy it over
  276. 11:44And I'm pretty sure if I
  277. 11:46press Oh, it just does that. But if we
  278. 11:50take this and we rotate it, I'm pretty
  279. 11:53sure I could do that with just this, but
  280. 11:55I guess it's not wanting to do it. I
  281. 11:57think it's just rotating the whole
  282. 11:58thing. But with this, I we'll just start
  283. 12:02over. The same way will be an uptrend,
  284. 12:06right? So remember, there's lows and
  285. 12:09highs into the market, right? There's
  286. 12:11lows and highs in the market. So this is
  287. 12:13our highest point. So this is our
  288. 12:16high, right? Before all of this
  289. 12:19happened. So we're going to put this
  290. 12:20here. We're going to put this here.
  291. 12:22We're going to drag this here. Before
  292. 12:23all this happened, we had a high, right?
  293. 12:26This is the highest point we can get in
  294. 12:28our life.
  295. 12:29High. Highest point. It's like it's like
  296. 12:33smoking smoking drugs or like smoking
  297. 12:35weed, right? you you you smoke weed and
  298. 12:39it's like you smoke weed and you're
  299. 12:41like, "Yo, this is the highest I can
  300. 12:43get, right? This is the highest I can
  301. 12:45get." And then you start doing other
  302. 12:48drugs and you're like, "Dang, this is"
  303. 12:49You start [ __ ] I don't know, doing
  304. 12:51cocaine and then you're like,
  305. 12:53"Dang, this is the highest I can get."
  306. 12:55Like life just gets higher and higher,
  307. 12:57right? So the same way with price, this
  308. 13:00is the highest you think price can get
  309. 13:02and then price ends up making a higher
  310. 13:04high, right?
  311. 13:06price ends up making a higher high and
  312. 13:08once price has a higher high it ends up
  313. 13:11making a higher low. So now we have
  314. 13:14a higher
  315. 13:19high and then with that higher high we
  316. 13:22have to come back down and then price is
  317. 13:24going to make that higher low. So I
  318. 13:26forgot to mark this part. So higher
  319. 13:28low and this is oh this is our high this
  320. 13:31is our low and then this is a higher
  321. 13:34high than the previous one. So this one
  322. 13:36is higher than the previous or this one
  323. 13:38is higher than the previous one. This
  324. 13:40low is higher than the previous
  325. 13:42low. Right? So we
  326. 13:46have higher low because it's higher than
  327. 13:48the previous low. Now, with this being
  328. 13:51said, what you're seeing right now, hold
  329. 13:53on, let me mark this as
  330. 13:56uptrend,
  331. 13:58right? What you are seeing right now, I
  332. 14:02want you to put this and drill this into
  333. 14:04the back of your
  334. 14:06head. Price will not break these levels
  335. 14:10on
  336. 14:11purpose on the higher time frame. And
  337. 14:14we're going to get into time frames
  338. 14:15later. I trade the higher time frame
  339. 14:17because it's strong. You get more you
  340. 14:20get more money because I was going to
  341. 14:22say points, but you don't even know what
  342. 14:23[ __ ] points are yet. Um, but you make
  343. 14:27more money by staying on that higher
  344. 14:29time frame. There's people that trade on
  345. 14:30the smaller time frames, but that comes
  346. 14:32with experience. I am trying to teach
  347. 14:35you the fastest way, not guaranteed, but
  348. 14:37the fastest way to start making some
  349. 14:40kind of money fast, right? But with that
  350. 14:43being said, price will not break this
  351. 14:45structure. Price will not break an
  352. 14:47uptrend or downtrend unless it's
  353. 14:49intended to reverse or it is
  354. 14:52consolidating. Now you're probably
  355. 14:54asking what the [ __ ] is a consolidation,
  356. 14:56right? So now I want you to remember
  357. 14:59uptrend
  358. 15:00downtrend. Remember that you got the
  359. 15:02high, the low, the higher high, the
  360. 15:04higher low, lower high, lower low, low
  361. 15:07and high. Right? So remember that
  362. 15:09uptrend downtrend. Now, what is
  363. 15:11consolidation? Consolidation is
  364. 15:13basically when a high and a low is
  365. 15:17being, I guess you could say, broken
  366. 15:20back and forth. So, you will see a high
  367. 15:23and then you expect a higher low, but
  368. 15:26instead you have a low being broken and
  369. 15:29it is just sideways. So, it's not going
  370. 15:32in any direction. It is normally
  371. 15:34breaking higher highs, higher low. It's
  372. 15:37breaking everything. It has no rules.
  373. 15:39And one thing about trading is
  374. 15:41everything has to follow a rule. You
  375. 15:43have to follow the rules. Charts
  376. 15:45normally have to follow rules.
  377. 15:47Fundamentals follow rules. Technical
  378. 15:50analysis follow rules. Everything
  379. 15:52follows the rules. You need a plan. You
  380. 15:53need it. You need all this. Everything
  381. 15:55has rules. Life has rules. You have
  382. 15:57rules. Trading has rules. So if
  383. 16:00consolidation is breaking the rules, you
  384. 16:02do not want to put yourself around
  385. 16:04something that is breaking the rules.
  386. 16:06It's it's like common sense. Trading
  387. 16:08always for me relates back to life
  388. 16:11because it is
  389. 16:13exactly it it's exactly what um like
  390. 16:18trading and life mirrors each other. You
  391. 16:20wouldn't put yourself around criminal
  392. 16:22friends. You wouldn't put yourself
  393. 16:23around criminals because you know they
  394. 16:25break the rules. So in trading, why
  395. 16:27would you put yourself around people or
  396. 16:29why would you put yourself around a
  397. 16:32price or a market where it constantly
  398. 16:35breaks the rules? You want to find
  399. 16:37something that follows the rules. I
  400. 16:38trade NASDAQ. I've been trading it for
  401. 16:40four years. I've made over millions of
  402. 16:42dollars on it and it breaks rules
  403. 16:44sometimes and that's when you stay away
  404. 16:46from the markets and then when it
  405. 16:48doesn't break rules, you're always
  406. 16:49making money. So, with this being said,
  407. 16:51always put yourself in a predicament
  408. 16:53where you
  409. 16:55are with a trend that is following the
  410. 16:58rules. You don't want to be in
  411. 16:59consolidation. I'm not going to explain
  412. 17:01more about consolidation, but this you
  413. 17:04do not want to trade. Consolidation,
  414. 17:06don't trade it. I'm telling you now,
  415. 17:08don't trade it. How can you identify it?
  416. 17:10Identify it by when price is, you know,
  417. 17:13you're looking for that uptrend, you
  418. 17:14start to see your high and you start to
  419. 17:16see your low, and then you see your
  420. 17:18higher high, but then you start seeing
  421. 17:19it break down to the downside, then get
  422. 17:21away from it. Stay away from it because
  423. 17:23then that is probably showing you it is
  424. 17:26consolidating or it's breaking rules.
  425. 17:28You don't want to be around trends that
  426. 17:29are breaking rules. You want trends to
  427. 17:31follow the structure that I have shown
  428. 17:33you. It's going to be complex. It's not
  429. 17:36going to look as pretty as what I'm
  430. 17:37showing you. But with these um with
  431. 17:42these in mind, I think this will pretty
  432. 17:44much help you along the way and help you
  433. 17:48overall as a beginner. But this is
  434. 17:51episode one and I'm going to continue to
  435. 17:54keep making these videos. So with that
  436. 17:56being
  437. 17:56said, take this into consideration and
  438. 18:00overall look at this and say, "Hey, I
  439. 18:03understand what an uptrend and downtrend
  440. 18:06is and I know what consolidation is." So
  441. 18:08consolidation for you for you people.
  442. 18:14Consolidation. Consolidation. Boom.
  443. 18:18Right. So, next time next time we're
  444. 18:20going to talk about or I might as well
  445. 18:22just show you an example of what
  446. 18:25uptrends and downtrends look like,
  447. 18:28right? So, take a picture of this, take
  448. 18:30a screenshot of this, whatever you need
  449. 18:32to do as a beginner. Um, take whatever
  450. 18:35notes you need to take. I'm going to
  451. 18:36keep this up for like two more
  452. 18:39seconds. Waiting on you. All right,
  453. 18:42you're good. Um, we're going to remove
  454. 18:45this and we're going to take this. Now,
  455. 18:48what you are looking at might seem a
  456. 18:50little crazy, but I kid you not, over
  457. 18:53time it's going to make sense. So, a
  458. 18:57sneak peek, I like to use the one one
  459. 19:00hour time frame. Um, in this situation,
  460. 19:02I think we should use the let's say 4our
  461. 19:06time frame. Let's see if we can find
  462. 19:08something that makes super sense to you.
  463. 19:11Um, we're going to use this for example,
  464. 19:13right? Super cent price is going to have
  465. 19:19let's say let's say this is our high
  466. 19:21here, right? We have our high and then
  467. 19:23we have our low. As you can see, price
  468. 19:26has our high has our low. As we can also
  469. 19:29see price comes up a little bit, makes a
  470. 19:32new high, but this high is lower than
  471. 19:34the previous high. So now we have a
  472. 19:36lower high right here. Right? We can say
  473. 19:38HL and then we have our low right here.
  474. 19:41Right? Our
  475. 19:42low and then we have our high up
  476. 19:47here.
  477. 19:49Right? So now we have our LH price goes
  478. 19:54down and we create a low. Well, how do
  479. 19:57you know that's a low? Because price
  480. 19:58reaches a certain point before it starts
  481. 20:00to make a shift in another direction. So
  482. 20:03we have our lower high once again
  483. 20:06because this high is lower than the
  484. 20:08previous one. So we have our LH and then
  485. 20:11we have our lower low. So lower than a
  486. 20:15previous low which is right here, right?
  487. 20:18Or you can even use this one down here,
  488. 20:20whichever one fits for you. But this one
  489. 20:22is a support and we're going to talk
  490. 20:24about that later. But we have a lower
  491. 20:27low, a lower high. And then we have a
  492. 20:29new low, which means this low is lower
  493. 20:33than the previous one. So that is a
  494. 20:34another lower low. And then we have
  495. 20:38another lower high because this high, as
  496. 20:41you can see, it was going up high, but
  497. 20:43it didn't go higher than this one. And
  498. 20:46vice versa, we can literally track this
  499. 20:49all the way down, right? We can track
  500. 20:52this all the way down. Um, but those
  501. 20:55that that's just basic fundamentals. As
  502. 20:58we go more in depth, you will start to
  503. 21:00understand what you can mark, what you
  504. 21:02can't mark, what to look at, what not to
  505. 21:03look at, when to trade, when not to
  506. 21:05trade. Just continue
  507. 21:08to watch the videos that I put out. Um,
  508. 21:12but if you have any questions on the
  509. 21:14basic trends or the basic fundamentals
  510. 21:16of finding a trend, let me know. Comment
  511. 21:19down below. But this is the basics of
  512. 21:21finding a trend.
