This stupid simple three-step strategy

0:02

works every day and it consistently

0:04

gives me wins like this, this, and this

0:06

and I'm about to show you exactly how.

0:08

Now, I've been trading for 9 years and

0:10

in that time I've tested hundreds of

0:12

complicated strategies and this one is

0:14

hands-down the best and most simplest,

0:17

which is why I named it my A+ strategy

0:20

and in this video I'm going to teach you

0:21

the full strategy and then we'll do a

0:22

1-month back test to prove that it

0:24

works. The goal of this strategy is to

0:27

make consistent profits in less than 90

0:29

minutes per day and in order to do so

0:31

we're going to start our days by getting

0:33

to our desks right at 9:45 a.m. Eastern

0:36

Standard Time. Before we get started I

0:38

want to be clear that this strategy

0:40

works in any market whether it's

0:41

futures, stocks, crypto, or forex and

0:44

you follow the same three simple steps

0:46

every single day. But, in order to trade

0:49

this consistently you need to understand

0:51

how to trade choppy days properly, that

0:54

way you can avoid the losing trades.

0:55

Let's hop right into step number one,

0:57

which is marking our range for the day.

1:00

Now, in order to do this you want to

1:02

start on your 15-minute chart. In order

1:04

to get here you're going to go to

1:05

TradingView and click this 15-minute

1:08

button. This means that each candle you

1:10

see represents 15 minutes of trading

1:12

time. Next, we're going to wait for the

1:14

first 15-minute candle to close. This is

1:16

the candle that happens at 9:30 and

1:19

closes at 9:45. As you can see here down

1:22

below the date and the time. Next, we

1:24

need to mark the high and the low of

1:27

this candle to find our trading range.

1:29

In order to do this you can go over here

1:31

on TradingView to the left, click this

1:33

button, and then you can select the

1:35

trend line tool and we can use this to

1:37

mark out the high and the low of this

1:39

first 15-minute candle. And now you've

1:41

got your trading range for the day. But,

1:44

understanding the range is useless if

1:46

you don't know which direction we're

1:48

going to take trades in, which brings us

1:50

right to step number two. For step

1:51

number two, we're going to change to the

1:53

5-minute chart. You can do this by going

1:55

on TradingView and selecting this

1:57

5-minute button right here. And this

1:59

view brings it so that every candle you

2:01

see represents 5 minutes worth of

2:03

trading time. Next, we're going to wait

2:05

for a break. But, when we're talking

2:07

about a break we need a very specific

2:10

pattern to form as the break occurs.

2:13

This way we can help filter out the

2:15

losing trades and this is huge for

2:17

keeping a high win rate as you'll see

2:19

later on in the video when we do the

2:20

back test. You'll see pretty quickly

2:22

that we get a nice big move outside the

2:25

range and a lot of people will try to

2:27

classify a break as just a candle

2:30

closure or maybe even a big candle, but

2:33

we're looking for something much

2:34

different. Now, I want you to notice how

2:36

there is a gap between this candle's

2:38

high right here and then this candle's

2:41

low. This is what we call a fair value

2:45

gap. Now, we're going to be looking for

2:47

a long trade and since buyers are in

2:49

control we're going to be looking to buy

2:51

the market or get in a long trade. Now

2:54

that we've got our fair value gap we've

2:55

confirmed our market direction, but

2:58

understanding the direction without

2:59

having a clear way to find our trade

3:01

entry, set our stop loss, and our target

3:03

won't make us much money, which brings

3:05

us right into step number three. And

3:07

this is stupid simple. We're just going

3:09

to set a limit order on the FVG. Now, in

3:12

order to do this you can go over here on

3:14

the left-hand side and since we are

3:16

bullish on the market and wanting to

3:17

buy, we're going to click long position.

3:21

After you click this you can just place

3:22

this tool with your entry, which is this

3:25

middle line, right on the fair value

3:27

gap. And then you can right-click this

3:28

tool and click create limit order. And

3:31

what this limit order does is that it

3:33

tells the broker this is the highest

3:36

limit you would be willing to buy from.

3:38

So, if the market dips back down under

3:40

that level it's going to enter you into

3:42

the market without you having to

3:44

manually execute. And in order for our

3:46

stop loss or where we're going to cut

3:48

our losses if we're wrong, we want to

3:50

place it right at the base of fair value

3:53

gap candle one. So, not the gap candle

3:55

itself, but the first candle of the

3:58

three candle pattern. Now, for our

3:59

target we are just going to drag out our

4:01

position size tool until it says two to

4:04

one risk to reward. This means that on

4:06

our winning trades we will make twice as

4:09

much profit as we would lose on our

4:12

losing trades. Now, as you can see the

4:14

market came back down and traded into

4:16

our fair value gap, so it entered us

4:19

into the trade. And on this trade we're

4:21

risking $288

4:23

to make a potential $583.

4:27

Now, at this time your work is done and

4:29

you literally just sit back and let the

4:31

market do the heavy lifting for you.

4:33

Now, a lot of people have an issue of

4:35

trying to micromanage their trades, but

4:37

you have to stay consistent and just

4:39

trust in the strategy. And in case

4:41

you're wondering, yes, this strategy is

4:43

that stupid simple. But, if you don't

4:46

know how to trade the choppy days then

4:48

you will end up giving all of your

4:49

profits back. And there are two types of

4:51

choppy days that you need to learn how

4:53

to navigate in order to stay consistent.

4:56

And every day in my free community I'm

4:57

dropping market outlooks, that way you

4:59

know what to expect. I'll leave a link

5:01

down in the description where you can

5:03

join totally free. There's a free

5:05

course, tons of PDFs, and a bunch of

5:07

other value that's going to help you

5:08

become a successful trader. Again, that

5:11

link's down in the description if you

5:12

want to join for free. Let's hop right

5:14

into the first of the two different

5:15

types of choppy days, which I like to

5:17

call a mix-up and this is where a lot of

5:19

traders go wrong using the strategy. As

5:22

you can see we've got this first

5:23

15-minute candle's high and low marked,

5:25

so we're good to go to the 5-minute

5:27

chart. Now, after we get to the 5-minute

5:30

chart is where a lot of you guys start

5:32

making mistakes that cause you to blow

5:34

your account and overall be an

5:35

unsuccessful trader.

5:37

Now, in order to avoid those mistakes,

5:40

what you have to do is you just keep

5:42

things simple, okay? Notice how on this

5:44

day we're trading into both sides of the

5:46

range, we're hitting wicks which aren't

5:49

confirmations. Yes, we got a candle

5:51

closure here, but look, there's no fair

5:53

value gap, so there is no trade. Now, a

5:55

lot of you guys sit here during these

5:57

times and maybe you start overtrading,

5:59

maybe you go on tilt, meaning you start

6:01

taking bad decisions based on emotions,

6:04

but this is going to solve that for good

6:05

because these days are inevitable as

6:07

traders. Not every single day is going

6:08

to be picture perfect. Some days you're

6:10

going to have a lot of fake outs as you

6:12

can see here, but that's the beauty of

6:14

this strategy and having the fair value

6:16

gap filter that we do because even with

6:18

a big candle like this a lot of you guys

6:19

say, "Oh my god, I'm just going to go

6:21

ahead and get in now. I'll get a better

6:23

entry, right? It's going to form a fair

6:24

value gap anyways." But, you can't

6:26

>> [music]

6:26

>> think like that. Because as you can see

6:28

the market can quickly turn around. And

6:31

what do you do during these times? A lot

6:33

of traders are paralyzed. A lot of

6:34

traders this is where they start to lose

6:37

confidence and this is normal. Like when

6:38

you're learning that's going to happen,

6:40

but that's why you need a stupid simple

6:41

process to help you avoid that.

6:44

So now, as you can see we finally after

6:47

a lot of mix-up, which is why I like to

6:49

call these days mix-ups, where you're

6:50

hitting both sides of the range,

6:52

chopping around, finally we did get that

6:55

fair value gap. So, at this time we're

6:57

good to enter the market. Now, as long

6:59

as this happens before 12:00 p.m. As you

7:01

can see this is 11:30 a.m. So, as long

7:04

as this fair value gap forms before

7:05

12:00 p.m. you're good to still enter

7:08

the trade. Now, since this did go

7:09

through the first candle low, you want

7:11

to be selling the market. So, we're

7:13

going to go over here to the left.

7:14

[music] We're going to click the short

7:15

position tool, place it right on that

7:17

fair value gap, stop loss on fair value

7:20

gap candle number one, not that gap

7:22

candle. Remember, it's the first candle

7:24

that forms in a fair value gap. And then

7:26

our target we're going to fix at two to

7:28

one risk to reward. We're going to

7:30

create our limit order and as you can

7:32

see we're entered into the trade with

7:33

$800 at risk to make $1,600 and at this

7:37

time everything else is the same. Even

7:39

though it was a mix-up day you still

7:40

just let the strategy do the lifting for

7:42

you and as you can see the target was

7:44

hit rather quickly. Now, how many of you

7:45

guys have gotten chopped up on those

7:47

mix-up days? If that's you I want you to

7:50

drop a comment down below and make a

7:52

promise that you're going to stay

7:53

consistent with this strategy to help

7:55

avoid losing those trades. Now, let's

7:57

hop right into choppy day number two,

7:59

which is what I call the steady day and

8:02

this one is a little bit of a hidden

8:04

killer because traders don't even

8:05

realize that it's happening. So, as you

8:06

can see here we've got our first candle

8:08

on October 24th marked out on the

8:11

15-minute chart. Then we want to go to

8:13

the 5-minute [music]

8:14

chart. And after this it's business as

8:16

usual. Yes, this strategy is simple and

8:19

boring, but one thing I've learned about

8:20

trading is that once your trading

8:22

becomes boring is when you become

8:24

successful.

8:25

So, we want to wait for the market to

8:27

trade outside of our range like usual,

8:29

but as you can see we don't get a fair

8:30

value gap. You get a closure. A lot of

8:32

people start to rush into the market as

8:34

soon as you get a closure, but we can't

8:35

do that for this strategy. There's no

8:37

fair value gap, no trade. As you can see

8:39

the market kind of meanders around a

8:41

little bit and this is where a lot of

8:42

you guys get FOMO and start blowing your

8:44

accounts because you're rushing into the

8:46

market, making emotional decisions, but

8:49

not anymore after today's video because

8:51

now you have a mechanical and simple

8:52

process. As you can see the market kind

8:54

of is just moving steady. We're not

8:56

mixing up, we're not hitting the high

8:58

and going down to the low. It's just a

9:00

slow grind. It's not something you want

9:01

to be a part of yet.

9:03

But then we can see that the market

9:04

starts to dip back into the range, pops

9:07

out,

9:08

and then we finally form our fair value

9:11

gap. So, at this time you're good to

9:13

enter a long position since this is a

9:16

high we're pushing a fair value gap out

9:18

of the range. We're going to put our

9:20

stop loss at that candle number one and

9:22

just like usual we have a fixed two to

9:24

one risk to reward. Now, for this trade

9:25

we have $385 at risk to make $770

9:29

and same as usual we sit back and let

9:31

the market do the heavy lifting for us.

9:33

[music] Even though you've seen these

9:34

three recent examples of this strategy

9:37

working you're probably wondering how

9:38

could something this stupid simple

9:40

actually work? So, let's put it to the

9:42

test and look at the data we gathered

9:43

over historical trading in the strategy,

9:45

that way you have the confidence you

9:47

need to execute it consistently. Over

9:49

the last month this strategy netted

9:50

$15,455

9:53

over 16 trades with a win rate of 81%.

9:57

It also had a max drawdown of only

9:59

$1,635,

10:01

which makes it perfect for prop firms.

10:03

If you want a discount on your Apex

10:05

Funded Challenge, I will leave a

10:07

discount code down in the description

10:09

along with the link you can use. So,

10:10

congratulations. You now have a stupid

10:13

simple strategy that is proven to work.

10:15

But, chances are you've had these kinds

10:17

of opportunities before, but you're

10:19

still not profitable. And I know this

10:20

because I was in the exact same boat,

10:22

and it took me years to finally become a

10:25

successful trader. Here is me

10:27

liquidating my accounts in 2021. And at

10:29

this point, I have been trading for 5

10:31

years already. But, it shouldn't have

10:32

taken me that long. And the reason that

10:34

it did is because I was overwhelmed with

10:36

complicated strategies. I had no idea

10:39

where to start, so I kept blowing

10:40

accounts for a long time until I

10:42

realized that trading, when it's done

10:44

right, is stupid simple. Which is why

10:46

now I mentor traders to help them avoid

10:49

all the losses and wasted time that I

10:50

had to go through. And I'm not saying I

10:52

run a trading Discord because I don't.

10:55

In my direct mentorship, you're actually

10:57

sitting down live trading with your

10:59

mentor 5 days per week. Every single

11:02

trade that you take is reviewed through

11:04

our trade journaling software. You get

11:06

access to the rest of the software that

11:07

helps you with risk management and a ton

11:09

of other cool stuff. And you learn

11:10

everything that I know from my 9 years

11:12

as a trader and get direct access to me.

11:14

That way I can help you with whatever

11:16

specific situations you have. And I'm so

11:18

confident in this system that if you do

11:20

everything I tell you and still don't

11:22

get funded in 12 weeks, I will

11:23

personally sit and trade with you until

11:25

you do. Now, due to this being a direct

11:27

mentorship, I cannot work with everyone.

11:29

And we only work with a limited amount

11:31

of traders each enrollment. If the link

11:33

in the top of the description that says

11:35

mentorship still works, then slots are

11:37

available. But, if not, this enrollment

11:39

is closed. Now, regardless if we work

11:41

together or not, I'm rooting for you

11:42

guys to win. And if you're new to the

11:44

channel, make sure to subscribe, and

11:45

I'll put a playlist on your screen that

11:47

teaches you everything that you need in

11:49

order to win at trading. And to be

11:51

clear, guys, you don't need the

11:52

mentorship. It's just a fast track to

11:54

help you avoid my mistakes. You can do

11:56

it all on your own if you want to. Just

11:58

accept that it's going to take you years

11:59

because trading is very difficult, and a

12:01

lot of people never become successful

12:03

because they don't have the systems that

12:04

they need. Whatever you do, just make

12:06

sure to stay consistent, stay

12:08

disciplined, and make sure to fall in

12:09

love with the process because trading

12:11

can change your life just like it did

12:12

mine. Thanks for watching, guys, and

12:14

I'll see you in the next video.
