Setups and Formations you need to know!

🧵 A THREAD 🧵

These are some of my most profitable and consistent setups that I use on a daily basis. Learn them and profit!
#ChartHashira
1. Technical analysis is the embodiment of displaying the dialogue that price action tells between bears and bulls. Setups/formations are all based on probability, meaning the outcome may give you an edge when taking entry.
2. Channel:
Provides a range of price that displays 2 levels to either be broken or respected. My favorite setup.
3. Ascending/Descending wedge:
Shows a steep rise or decline in price action that holds right to the supporting TL in either direction. If the support fails, expect a drop.
4. Head and shoulders:
This is a transition setup that shows points of possible reversal through pivot price action. Give the trader a HL confirmation with defined risk. Works on the inverse as well for shorts.
5. Break and Base (retest):
This setup is great for momentum/breakout buyers that alerts strong confirmation when taking a resistance break trade. Buy high, sell higher with a defined SL.
6. Rounding tops/bottoms:
Strong VPA pattern that will show either buyer or seller exhaustion and a point of potential reversal.
7. I look for and use these formations on a regular basis. Remember that like all strategies, these will not work 100% of the time. Probability is the game, find your edge and execute!

How I review charts to improve my trading! The key to my success.

🧵 A THREAD 🧵

I will simply explain my process when reviewing my trades/charts each day. This is how you will acclimate yourself for quick analyzation and execution during your trading session.
#ChartHashira
1. I review each of my trades each night to identify what I executed incorrectly and what I traded well that day. This has been my biggest influence in trading that led me to the consistency and success I have today. Screen time is green time. Study yourself.
2. I start off by looking at the chart from a top down approach by timeframes. I look at the Daily, Hourly, 10m, and 5m. I draw the trends and formations I see on the chart to show the bigger picture trend I may have missed during market hours. S/r, S/D, pivots, flags, etc.

How to trade weekly 0DTE options!

🧵 A THREAD 🧵

This is my approach on trading very volatile and profitable options contracts with 0 days to expire.
1. 0DTE contracts are risky, but with increased risk comes greater reward. The truth of the matter is that you do not need to risk a large % of portfolio to make insane gains. Always watching first 3 OTM contracts closest to being ITM.
2. Each morning I analyze $QQQ (or whatever ticker you want to trade) and find the channel that price is consolidation in. I look for highs/lows prior to close or the highs/lows of ext. hours.

How I trade Options at market open!

🧵 A THREAD 🧵

Simple and detailed explanation on how I approach my executions each morning.
1. Each morning I will chart out the channel that is presented in ext hours. This provides me clear levels to take Calls/Puts off of if price were to reject/base. I gather my contracts I am interested in and have them ready to execute for open.
2. Prior to open I will chart out any Supply and Demand zones where I feel confident participants in the market are present. This gives me more strength when selecting contracts and confirming my analysis of the current trend.

How to identify and trade Supply and Demand zones!

🧵 A THREAD 🧵
This will be a simple explanation of my use of Supply and Demand zones.
1. Supply and Demand is similar to resistance and support, but S/D allow you to recognize where buyers and sellers are present. This gives me confidence when placing my orders.
2.If you understand support and resistance, then you are halfway to understanding S/D! Know that you should not have blind orders in potential zones, always gauge price action and how quickly it is approaching your zone.

Trading plan for newer traders!
Account builder.
🧵(A THREAD) 🧵
Here is a simple trading strategy for traders who currently lack a plan. This strategy provides a proper thesis on how to make base hits and build your account!
1. Scale into a position 1/4 at a time near a support level with a clear level to base risk off of. This will provide patience in planning and prevent trades taken with haste. Putting the ball in your court gives you the advantage in the trade, you control what you lose.
2. Identify a support level to base risk off. Do this by looking at time frames larger than the 1 min and placing horizontal trend line. I don’t stop out right on support, I have a SL in a small range below support. Never on the half and whole dollar psychs.

Biggest trading mistakes to avoid!
(A Thread)
We all know 90% of traders fail their first year, accepting and working on your faults is the first step to be apart of the 10% who succeed.
1. Oversizing- The yearning for profit should never overtake your defined risk parameters. You have to EARN the right to size up. Trade good setups with minimal risk and the money will follow. Greed will kill you.
2. Bagholding- This detrimentally affects your emotions/decisions. Cut the bag and move on. Your opportunity cost is burning away each day. Give yourself and your account a chance, own up to the bad trade you committed and move one.
