  25. 0:46but how can you hold those trades longer
  26. 0:48and what if you don't get the perfect
  27. 0:50entry of the three-line strike because
  28. 0:51it doesn't happen that often
  29. 0:53in this video i'm going to show you how
  30. 0:54to look at market structure and a break
  31. 0:56in market structure
  32. 0:58to find your best entries for us 30 and
  33. 1:00hold those trades for a little bit
  34. 1:02longer
  35. 1:02and honestly if you're patient you can
  36. 1:04make some really good money
  37. 1:05so jumping into the charts we got us 30
  38. 1:08here on a 15 minute time frame i want
  39. 1:11you to focus on a higher time frame even
  40. 1:1315 minutes is a little bit low but this
  41. 1:15is gonna get you your best entry points
  42. 1:18what i want you to do is set up a few
  43. 1:20moving averages these are smoothed
  44. 1:22moving averages to do so you're going to
  45. 1:24click on the indicators tab and just
  46. 1:26type in
  47. 1:27smoothed it is a built-in indicator and
  48. 1:29it is free put a star next to it keep it
  49. 1:31on your favorites tab you want to click
  50. 1:32this four times
  51. 1:34or if you only have the basic package of
  52. 1:36trading view there's an indicator right
  53. 1:38here
  54. 1:38called three smoothed moving averages
  55. 1:40you can add that and that's one
  56. 1:42indicator so you're going to want to
  57. 1:43change the settings of the smoothed
  58. 1:45moving averages the inputs are going to
  59. 1:47be 21
  60. 1:4950 100 and 200. you can do whatever
  61. 1:52colors you want i have white green
  62. 1:54yellow and red
  63. 1:55the other indicator that you want to
  64. 1:56keep up on your chart is the rsi the
  65. 1:59relative strength index it is also free
  66. 2:01in the built-ins
  67. 2:02put a star next to it because you're
  68. 2:03going to need it i like to adjust my
  69. 2:04settings a little bit i
  70. 2:06keep the inputs the same the length is
  71. 2:08going to be 14 but the style i like to
  72. 2:10change i like to change the color to
  73. 2:11yellow because it's my favorite color
  74. 2:13upper band and lower band instead of 70
  75. 2:15and 30 you're going to change them both
  76. 2:17to 50 with a solid line
  77. 2:19and then just click ok so two very
  78. 2:21important things that you want to keep
  79. 2:23in mind when you are above the
  80. 2:25200 smoothed moving averages you want to
  81. 2:27look for long positions
  82. 2:29and when you are below the 200 smoothed
  83. 2:31moving average you want to look for
  84. 2:32short positions
  85. 2:33you also do not want to trade when it
  86. 2:36looks like this
  87. 2:36if it's flatlined and dead there is low
  88. 2:39momentum
  89. 2:39causing spikes up and down and there's
  90. 2:42no clear trend so you'll be in a trade
  91. 2:44for a very long period of time
  92. 2:46causing you to lose more money so you
  93. 2:48want to wait for clear spikes and dips
  94. 2:50like this above or below the 200. now if
  95. 2:53you guys don't know about market
  96. 2:54structure please go back and watch my
  97. 2:56market structure video but essentially
  98. 2:58it goes
  99. 2:59like this all right market structure in
  100. 3:0115 seconds
  101. 3:02we have our high we have a lower low we
  102. 3:04have a lower high
  103. 3:06and we have a lower low you're seeing a
  104. 3:08staircase pattern correct
  105. 3:09this is market structure if it does not
  106. 3:12maintain the staircase pattern down and
  107. 3:14it starts going up
  108. 3:16breaking this high like it did right
  109. 3:18here
  110. 3:19breaking that previous structure now we
  111. 3:21are above the 200 period moving average
  112. 3:24all the moving averages are fanning out
  113. 3:26showing a clear and concise momentum
  114. 3:28move
  115. 3:29up now this is the mistake that most
  116. 3:31traders make they see a break in
  117. 3:33structure but they do not wait for new
  118. 3:35structure to be formed and don't get
  119. 3:38bothered by these tiny little steps
  120. 3:40these do not equate for
  121. 3:42a higher low and a higher high in market
  122. 3:44structure you want them to be clear
  123. 3:46and concise like this is a high
  124. 3:49and this is a low once this new market
  125. 3:52structure is formed and it bounces
  126. 3:54up this is your indication clearly
  127. 3:56bouncing off of the 200 period moving
  128. 3:59average
  129. 3:59represented by this huge ass wick this
  130. 4:02is where you would have gotten in
  131. 4:04on your position creating a stop loss
  132. 4:07below
  133. 4:07that wick and basically what i want you
  134. 4:09to do is
  135. 4:10hold this trade long term i am a scalper
  136. 4:14through and through but if you are a
  137. 4:15long-term position trader what i want
  138. 4:18you to do
  139. 4:19is once you get into profit put your
  140. 4:22stop
  141. 4:22loss into profit immediately you don't
  142. 4:24want to lose money on this trade you
  143. 4:26never want to be in a position
  144. 4:28where you're risking losing money i'd
  145. 4:29rather move my stop loss
  146. 4:31to in profit like 50 bucks 20 bucks
  147. 4:35versus losing any amount of money i can
  148. 4:37always look for the next trade but
  149. 4:39earning back your losses
  150. 4:40is a pain in the ass so what i want you
  151. 4:42to do at this point once we've touched
  152. 4:44this 200 and bounced off of it and we're
  153. 4:47in profit
  154. 4:48you move it to in profit right away and
  155. 4:51you use this 200 period moving average
  156. 4:54as your new trailing stop loss as it
  157. 4:56gets higher and higher you can then
  158. 4:58subsequently move your stop loss
  159. 5:01to the next moving average but make sure
  160. 5:03you don't get too close to the price
  161. 5:05because you could get stopped
  162. 5:06out on a quick correction so if you move
  163. 5:08your stop loss to the 100 or the 50 you
  164. 5:11can see you would have gotten stopped
  165. 5:12out right here but if you have your stop
  166. 5:14loss at the 100
  167. 5:15you're still going in on this trade so
  168. 5:18currently
  169. 5:18just using that break in market
  170. 5:20structure above and below the 200 period
  171. 5:23moving average
  172. 5:24right now still in an open position
  173. 5:27you're up
  174. 5:28778 points on us 30.
  175. 5:31now for me a .01 lot size on us 30
  176. 5:36means i'm in profit 778 dollars
  177. 5:39but if you have a bigger account balance
  178. 5:42or you're trading on a funded account
  179. 5:44and you're trading a 0.10 lot
  180. 5:46size you're up 7 780
  181. 5:51on this one trade now keep in mind this
  182. 5:53is a long term trade
  183. 5:54you are doing a trailing stop loss
  184. 5:56getting the most
  185. 5:57out of a move so this trade right here
  186. 6:00is going on for four days and 16 hours
  187. 6:03but hundred and eighty 7780 in four days
  188. 6:07is not a bad profit and a great
  189. 6:09replacement for a full-time job now you
  190. 6:11need to keep in mind your level of
  191. 6:12patience and what amount of money you
  192. 6:14actually want to make on a trade this is
  193. 6:17a ridiculous trade to continue to hold
  194. 6:19at this point what you could do is close
  195. 6:2290
  196. 6:23of your trade take your profits secure
  197. 6:26that
  198. 6:26and then move your stop loss up to the
  199. 6:2821 or the
  200. 6:3050. so a 0.1 lot size you're almost to 8
  201. 6:32grand in profit
  202. 6:34now why did i tell you to put the rsi on
  203. 6:36this chart we got into this trade right
  204. 6:38here so i drew a dotted line and let's
  205. 6:40look at what the rsi is doing at this
  206. 6:42point
  207. 6:42zooming in a little bit closer on this
  208. 6:44rsi what i like to do is use the rsi as
  209. 6:47a momentum indicator and it's super
  210. 6:49simple
  211. 6:49if the rsi is above the 50 line that
  212. 6:52means we're having
  213. 6:53bullish momentum if the rsi is below the
  214. 6:5650 line that means we're having bearish
  215. 6:57momentum to the downside
  216. 6:59so after doing our entire analysis on
  217. 7:01the price action
  218. 7:02we come down to the rsi to actually get
  219. 7:05that reassuring click that hey
  220. 7:07we are above the 50 level so we are
  221. 7:09moving into the bullish momentum that's
  222. 7:12all you're using the rsi for above 50
  223. 7:14up below 50 down but you also have to
  224. 7:17take into consideration
  225. 7:18what direction that 200 moving average
  226. 7:21is going if it's going down like this
  227. 7:22you're only looking for short positions
  228. 7:24if it's going up like this you're only
  229. 7:26looking for long positions
  230. 7:28if you guys are still watching this
