MARKET STRUCTURE 101
Simple way to gauge trend using nothing but highs and lows.
- The most recent level of market structure is the MOST important.
- Break in market structure does NOT mean the trend has changed. I use this as an indication that price MAY change direction.

TRADING AROUND MARKET STRUCTURE |
Learn how price moves, and you'll learn to get an edge over the market.
This is how trends form. And you know the old saying,
tren is ur fren

Some of these concepts might be new to you, in terms of the classification of levels.

Trading Tip |
If you are looking at a level that price is approaching and you are unsure if it will hold or not, just assume it will.
In doing so, my critical thinking and reactive decision making has been much better as apposed to speculating whether it will or not.

Trading Tip |
Many of you are now following the system I use, which is awesome.
But don't get confused when I say 'price will always test the origin'.
It will, but your analysis is used to figure out if/when it's gonna hold, and if it's worth putting money down on it.

WHEN price reacts to a level is more important than HOW it reacts.
Was discussing this in a recent video and came to my realisation that not many follow this particular logic.

If you watched my recent #BTC analysis vid, you'll have seen this played out perfectly.
The long trigger was the 30m sweep to the downside, which gave us the higher low.
Swing highs and swing lows and origins is all you need :)

Thinking about making this a weekly thing for Twitter.
Would you be interested in a weekly market outlook for BTC, ETH and possibly another major like LINK?
RT and Like if you would enjoy this.
(If there's enough interest, I might upgrade my video setup too.)

TRADING TIP |
At the end of the week, don't delete your levels.
Go back through the week's PA and map out potential setups, annotate what you need to and then compare that to your weekly haul.
If you're missing a lot of setups, you know what to do :)

If you think trading is all about hitting a buy or sell button, you are naively mistaken.

My take on the 4 market Market tenets:
Works on any market, any time frame. Go test it out.
- Expansion
- Retracement

Trading Tip |
- Identify current market tenet
- Identify bias
- If bullish, buy weakness (below lows)
- If bearish, sell strength (above highs)
This flies in the face of what most believe, but works wonders for long term profitability.

Cliff Notes on My Trading System |
Where are the key highs and lows?
What's the daily range?
Where are the untested origins and liquidity gaps?
If bullish, we're looking for sharp moves down to get long.
If bearish, we're looking for sharp moves up to get short.

Think of your trading plan like your training plan.
You think Ronnie Coleman got a back like his by doing whacky exercises every back sesh?
Na bro, he did the same thing for 20 years, and has the best back I've ever seen.

If you're using fancy indicators, a buttload of other analysis parameters, and other shit that you haven't tested/proven as legit, you're doing this wrong.
Stick to the basics. And fucking master them. It's that easy.

The idea of rinse and repeat is no joke.
Can you find a method that works over and over again with consistency? Then fucking stick to it. Mold your risk model around it.
Now go lift some weights and learn how to trade.

Yes, all methods work as long as they have clear guidelines.
But I sure as fuck know what chart I would rather look at.

Have you tested the theory you're presenting to the market? I guess not.
The reason why most lose is because they are too lazy to put the work into formulating a trading plan, a risk model, and a fucking profitable system.
You're at the precipice of freedom, why slack?

Trading Tip |
If a level is lost, fuck it off.
So many idiots continue to maintain a bias on a particular level and it's irrational as fuck. Grow a set.
If it's gone, let it go. It's not a fucking blow up sex doll you accidentally popped.

TRADING TIP |
What people call a blow off top also happens at the bottom. It's what they call capitulation.
They are just 'throwovers' at the end of a trend. Learn the mechanics of them and you'll never fucked in the ass again unless you ask for it :)

Intraday Setup Example |
$AAVE
This is the exact thing I look for every time. 90% of my trades look like this.
I also make sure the 4H is pointing up, which was confirmed for me early this morning.
This setup has a 85% strike rate.

TOP 3 TRADING TIPS THAT ALWAYS KEEP ME ABOVE WATER |
1. Losses are just that. Forget them, move on.
2. If you miss a move, DO NOT chase it. It's gone.
3. Evaluate your system each and every week, and never stop sharpening your sword.

Trading Tip |
Identifying impulses and consolidations are a big part of my trading.
Knowing when a move is starting and ending gives us the best possible R:R for any trade on any time frame.
Hunt in the consolidation so you can take a slice of the impulse.

Tip for Intraday Trading |
Separate the chart into London, NY, and Asia
Bullish London = possible retracement in NY into the London range
Asia consolidation = possible fakeout during London (stop run) into previous London/NY ranges
and so on. Go test this if it interests you.

Here's an example playing out as we speak on $LTC
Things to note in your testing of this method:
- Reactions around session lows and highs
- Reactions around range EQs
- Areas of price within a specific session that led to an impulse
NOW FUCKING SEND THIS TO 220.

5m Setup
Intraday Bias - Down
Filled an inefficiency, moved away and came back to the origin (balancing the inefficiency) so here we have now an efficient market.
Short term swing ran after LH, rebalance ultra LTF inefficiency, next impulse, boom

How to trade with ZERO emotion |
Pick a pair that you have no investment in, emotional of monetary.
Spend a week doing nothing but observing price. Just making notes as you go along.
You'll notice the 'big moves' don't affect you as much :)

Trading Tip |
This turns a 50% strike rate into a 65% strike rate without doing anything.
Spend the most time mastering MARKET DIRECTION.
If I know where price is going with an accuracy of 90%, then entries become arbitrary.
The money comes to you.

Trading Tip |
Not being in a trade DOES NOT mean that you have to be looking for one.
@tradingview has this cool feature that alerts you when price hits a level.
Once it gets there, react to what price is doing, and make a decision. Enter or don't. It's not Sophie's Choice.

Trading Tip |
Stop focusing on why your losers lose and start focusing on why your winners win.
It's a much more efficient process towards success.
Focusing on the negative outcomes is a strange mindset, and only facilitates poor judgement and piss poor decision making.

Best piece of trading advice I could ever give you is...
ALWAYS aim for the gap fill.
Doesn't matter what time frame, asset, whatever.

Trading Tip |
Should be obvious, but unfortunately it's obvious it's not lmao.
When you take a trade on a particular timeframe, you do not care about what happens on the timeframes lower, because your trigger is on the chart you're on, so you focus on that.
Don't fuck up.

Backtesting Tip |
Testing is no different to measuring coin flips or dice rolls.
We're testing the likelihood of something happening, and we measure that by how often it happens compared to the number of total outcomes.
Without this mathematical data, we can't predict shit.
