Here is a three simple steps to creating a mechanical trading system.

The three key elements I focus on for mine is under:

My time based market cycles
Liquidity
How delivery actually shifts

A THREAD 🧵

The primary struggle for retail traders is identified as a lack of deep knowledge of how the market actually operates

•Ineffective Education: Retail traders are often focused on the wrong things, such as basic candlestick patterns, and need instruction on how the market truly moves.

•The "Psychology Cope": The source dismisses the common assertion that psychology is the biggest hurdle, labeling it the "biggest cope in the trading industry" ." If a trader truly understands the markets and has a reliable system, they can trust it, even when facing losses.

•Inconsistency: The overwhelming majority of traders fail to achieve consistency. Traders who are not consistent often end up "blowing money" and putting it into the pockets of others

Core market principles

1 - The Market Follows a Predictable System and Time Cycles
•Time is the Driver: Time is the only element that moves these markets. The market moves within "real time cycles," not random patterns.

2 - Liquidity and Market Maker Function
•Liquidity Defined: Liquidity rests above cycle highs and below cycle lows.

3 - Delivery Shifting at Key Levels
•Delivery Shift as Confirmation: After liquidity is taken (e.g., a cycle high is run), the trader must wait for the market to signal that "delivery is shifting" before taking a position.

All I focus on is trading retracements & reversals.

Most people think it’s all about trying to catch the low & high of the market by “guessing”

I use my three candle rotation for the confirmation to know when to look for the retracement or reversal.

Here show in a thread 🧵

Core Concept:

Market Shift Delivery as a crucial signal indicating exactly when the market is going to change its intended direction and trade into a specific objective sought by the trader.

This concept is central to the 3 Candle Rotation Trading Strategy

How to trade without a daily bias.

Mainly focusing on TBR, using the frame work for building a bias & narrative.

My approach will provide minimal of three high probability setups per week.

A THREAD 🧵

Why Daily Bias is Unnecessary for Lower Time Frame Trading

The central argument for removing the daily bias is to simplify the trading process and reduce decision making.

The less decision making required, the better the trading is expected to be.

Specific reasons for dismissing the daily bias for lower time frame traders include:

Conflicting Signals Between Time Frames: The higher time frame (daily) and the lower time frame do not always agree.

A trader who is focused on the lower time frame needs to fully concentrate on the bias being built within that lower time frame

First 30 minutes of market open is all I need.

Every single day I frame all my trades based off a range which we take liquidity from.

It’s a process of if X happens then I do Y
If X does NOT happen then I don’t do Y

here is the full process: A THREAD 🧵

My time based ranges approach:

Framing the Range (8:12 to 9:12 EST)

The first step is establishing the red area defined by the time range of 8:12 to 9:12 EST.

This range is based on time cycles derived from the daily candle cycle, which the market's algorithm uses.

The strategy requires identifying the resting buy side liquidity (above the high) and sell side liquidity (below the low) of this range.
