My Trading Entry Model's

A Thread🧵 Image
Hello all, I have decided to write this brief thread going over my entry model that I use to execute trades, along with my SL placement and Take Profit targets

I hope you all enjoy
In this thread I will be going over,

-What I look for before entering a trade

-My Entry Models

-SL placement

-Taking profit

-Let's get into it!
What I look for before entering a trade

Before I enter a trade 2 criteria are vital and must always be met before I even consider to scout for entry’s which is

A clear draw on liquidity / a target

Tap into a HTF PD array
Image

Followed by that my trade idea must always be coupled with

-HTF bias

-Proper risk management

-Time of day / Kill-zones

I will never take an entry blindly just because an entry model is present, once these criteria are also met I then scout for entry’s!
Breaker Entry

Getting long or short at the breaker is what I use 9 times out of 10 for trade entry’s

Real Trade Example

Here is just an example of an entry at a breaker, pretty straight forward! Image
Unicorn Entry

A Unicorn entry is basically just a FVG inside of a breaker. This is my favourite entry type
Image

Example of a unicorn entry for reference Image
I would also like to add

-I use 1D for bias

-H1 for intra-day market structure

-Then all my entry’s are placed on either the M15/M5 chart!
Stop Loss Placement

In terms of where I put my stop loss,

-If I entered at the LRB/LRS I put my stop above/ below LTH/ LTL

-Any other entry such as second leg ect, I would put my stop above / below ITH / ITL if applicable
Image
Image
Example Image
Take Profit

My take profit level will always be an old high or low such as

-PDH / PDL

-PWH / PWL

-PMH/ PML

Or intra-day high’s or low’s such as

-Asia High / Low

-London High / Low
Thank you all for reading and as always if you have any questions feel free to ask!

Take care everybody and God bless

How I Trade MMXM

A Thread🧵 Image
Hello all,

I have decided to write this thread as every single trade I take is based upon MMXM framework,

I think having a decent grasp of the concept and being able to identify it even at a base level, can go leaps and bounds for your trading
MMXM framework can be found on all time frames but I personally use it on,

-1W / 1D /H12 for bias

-H1 chart for intra-day market structure

-M15/M5 for intra-day entry’s.

How I Use SMT Divergences

A Thread🧵 Image
I decided to write this thread because, by identifying SMT divergences you gain a better insight on the stronger/ weaker pair to trade in turn catching larger price moves.

Also, I will never take a trade based solely based on an SMT divergence, I use it as a confluence tool!
-What is an SMT?

An SMT (Smart Money Tool) is a crack in correlation between correlated pairs,

I use SMT divergences when I trade FX pairs like EUR/USD, GBP/USD and DXY

SMT’s can also be used with

-BTC/ETH

-XXXUSD/ DXY

-ES/YM/NQ

How I Trade Power Of 3 (PO3)

A thread🧵 Image
Hello all, I decided to write this thread as I feel the integration of PO3 into your trading can provide nice confluences to add to your trading arsenal

I will give a breakdown of what The Power Of 3 is, also 2 real trade examples, where I analyse a Weekly PO3 and a Daily PO3
Having a bias is key for trading PO3 reasonings being which I will discuss later in this thread

For this annotated breakdown I will be analysing a bullish daily scenario but as always the same principles would apply inversely if my bias was bearish.
