Key Takeaways:
- 1 asset/pair/ticker and 1 setup is all you need

- As I continue to collect data, im learning that m2 is my fav TF for entries
- Majority of trades were taken between 8:30-11

Weekly Outlook on $DXY & $EURUSD

Thread🧵

🧡&🔁 Image
With a top down analysis we will start by taking a look of the economic calendar to guide us for the week. High impact news everyday this week but CPI should cause the most volatility so could potentially eye for Tuesday to set high/low of the week depending on bias & PA. Image
$DXY | M

Now for charts we will look at HTF then work our way down. Dollar has respected the monthly fvg and is currently right at the monthly range high. Image

Thread on how to use the Economic Calendar and Weekly Profiles to build your framework for each week🧵

🧡&🔁 Image
Before the start of each week it's key to review the economic calendar because this is how you build the framework for the week.
First you need to do a top down analysis to determine what the HTF DOL is x.com/Dangstrat/stat…

ULTIMATE THREAD To Learn My Trading Model🧵

🔸Bias (Draw on Liquidity)
🔸Narrative
🔸Liquidity
🔸Market Structure
🔸Entry Model
🔸Risk/Reward
🔸Preparation, Execution, Management
🔸Time & Economic Calendar

🧡&🔁 Image
In simple terms my trading model starts with #TheStrat for HTF quarterly/monthly directional bias. Once I know this I move down to the weekly/daily timeframes and use #mondayrange, #MMXM, #PO3/#AMD to get my bias for the week and day.

When you understand the narrative and see that there's a clear draw on liquidity for your A+ setup, then it becomes very easy to execute the trade on M1-M5/M15 once there's a significant raid and shift in market structure.

Thread on Backtesting🧵

🔸Pros vs Cons
🔸How To Backtest

🧡&🔁 Image
My trading performance started significantly improving once I started backtesting. The goal of backtesting is to practice executing your model over and over again, not a bunch of different models. This quote is a great analogy for backtesting. Image
Pros to Backtesting:
- Learn if your trading model is working or not
- Improves edge as you collect more data
- Trains your eye to see setups form in real time
- Gives you confidence when executing trades
- You don't abandon model when you go through DD periods

Thread on using confluence to find the stronger & weaker pair🧵 Image
As always everyone should first be looking at DXY closely for confluence when trading EU (EURUSD) or GU (GBPUSD) as these pairs should be moving inversely with the dollar.
Use DXY to determine bias to either go long or short then look at EG (EURGBP) next to determine which pair is going to be the weaker or stronger pair.

Thread on High vs Low Probability Market Conditions & Setups🧵

🧡&🔁 Image
Knowing the difference between high vs low probability market conditions/setup is what separates traders from being non-profitable to profitable and is how traders take their game to the next level.
Key Factors For High Probability Market Conditions:
1. Clear Draw on Liquidity
2. Price Follows a Narrative
3. Confluence between DXY and other pairs
4. Low Resistance Liquidity Run
5. Classic Buy/Sell Day Profiles
6. HTF Expansion
7. Setup forms during killzone
