I’ve made $500k day trading in 2023 so far.

In this thread I’ll explain a simple strategy to find the daily bias and trend before the market opens: 👇

(1/13)
1) What is daily bias or trend?

This refers to understanding the direction of price for a stock in a trading day.

The 3 bias you can have are:

- Bullish
- Bearish
- Neutral (Range) Image
2) How To Determine The Trend

To determine the trend we are going to use the:

Top Down Approach.

This means we’ll be looking at the stock from different timeframes and perspectives to help choose the best trend outcome for the day.
3) Top Down Approach

This approach has 3 steps to follow:

1st- Check Higher Time Frame

2nd- Determine Key Levels

3rd- Execute on Lower Timeframe
4) HTF

For higher time frame we’re looking for the stock to continue in the trend it’s going.

To do this we will use market structure.

Ex: Higher Highs & Lows shows the stock will continue upward. Image
5) Key Levels

For our levels you DO NOT want to overcomplicate it and put 1000 levels on your screen.

You can simply use:
- PM high/low
- Previous day high/low
- New high/low that form intraday
6) Execute

To execute we want to do this on a lower timeframe.

HOWEVER,

Your execution reall depends on YOU.

Ask yourself:
- What are you trading?
- What’s your strategy?
- What timeframe are you the most comfortable on?

Tailor execution to your needs.
7) Real Example of Finding Trend

On the higher time frame on $SPY here we can see the stock is making higher highs and higher lows along with making a flag pattern.

This shows this is a great stock to play for the continuation of the long side. Image
8) How To Enter

For entry we’re looking for the best risk/reward for the long side.

So, we want to mark out our key levels, the red are lows and green are highs. Image
9) Entry

As the trade played out we saw a prominent new high being made that we put a new level at.

The retest to this level is where we are going to enter the trade.

We look for our previous day high level as a profit target and put our stop below the consolidation.

10) Profit

We made $400 on that trade by understanding daily bias and the trend before the market opened!

P.S- I made an entire video on this topic with more explanation and details!

I became a millionaire trader after understanding this ONE concept.

Most traders never learn this & don’t become profitable.

In this thread I’ll teach you:
The Importance of Statistics in Trading 👇

(1/13)
1) What is Probability?

Probabilities are simply the likelihood of a specific event occurring at a given moment.

Trading is ALL probability based nothing in trading is “Guaranteed” anyone telling you, “this is a guaranteed trade” is lying.
2) Example of Real Probability

Before we relate this concept to trading I want you to understand exactly what I’m talking about.

So,

Let’s take a dice.

If we roll the dice 6 times we should expect the number 1 to roll at least 1 time right?

Since it’s 1/6 probability? Image

I made $87,000 this month day trading because of one simple concept.

I understand how to enter the most profitable trades possible.

In this thread I’ll explain:
3 Steps To Enter The Best Trades👇

(1/12) Image
Do you enter trades with no confidence?

Have you tried every trading strategy possible and still can’t find profitability?

Have you asked yourself the question “what am I doing wrong in my trading journey?”

Th answer is you don’t have a strict entry criteria to enter trades.
1) Entry Criteria

An entry criteria for entering each trade is important because it helps you to mitigate your emotions.

With a criteria you follow steps that are mechanical so you trade like a robot rather than entering off fomo or greed.

You can make $500/day trading the same SETUP every day.

Most people don’t know what setup to look out for.

In this thread I’ll teach you a simple strategy to GROW your account:👇

Benefits:

Disadvantages:
- Doesn’t Occur On Same Stocks

The strategy is called:

The Morning Gap Strategy.

This occurs when the previous day closing price is lower (higher) than the current day opening price and it creates a gap. Image

I lost for 3+ years before I found the BIGGEST reason why I wasn’t a profitable trader.

Once I fixed the mistake my win rate increased significantly.

In this thread I’ll teach you:
Multi Time Frame Trading Strategy👇

(1/13)
1) Higher Time Frame

Most traders go into the day without understanding the STORY behind the chart.

Each chart is telling a story through different time frames, if you don’t read all time frames you won’t know the full story.
1.5) HTF

Looking at higher time frames will allow you to:

- increase win rate
- identify daily bias
- higher confidence in trades
- NOT get faked out
- play market open

I went from making $0 a day trading to averaging $3,000 a day.

Throughout my journey the most important thing that helped me become profitable is understanding liquidity.

In this thread I’ll explain:
How To Read Market Structure & Identify Liquidity:👇

(1/16)
1) Types of Market Trends

When trading there are 3 trends you will notice.

Upwards, Downwards, Sideways.

(This is Easy)

Problems occur:

When you CAN’T identify the trend.

OR

When you trade OPPOSITE to the trend.
2) How To Identify Trends

Here is a simple way to identify the trend.

For an upwards trend you need to look for the market to keep breaking highs and for the pullbacks to be higher than the previous pivot points.

For a downwards trend it’s the exact opposite of an uptrend.

Day Trading Is Hard, Until You Read This Thread.

I Will Go Over:
The Most Profitable & Simple ICT Trading Strategy (Box Setup):👇

(1/11)
1) What’s The Strategy?

This trading setup is derived from ict trading concepts called:

“The Box Setup”

It’s uses some of the easier ict concepts for newer traders to grasp and is a very consistent strategy.
2) The Box Setup

The setup contains 3 components: accumulation, manipulation & distribution.

In accumulation the stock is in a range once we break this range we fake retail out in the manipulation phase & then finally we want to enter the stock in the distribution phase.
