Catching the TREND early is the fastest path to $1k days

Yet 98% of traders miss it because they overthink every move.

But the cloud bounce makes it ridiculously simple

Here's how to front run the trend before it takes off: Image
Trading what you think will happen is a losing game.

The market is built to exploit your bias and trap you.

That’s why the only edge is trading what’s actually there.
Every move starts the same way:

Price hits a supply/demand zone

Buyers and sellers balance… until one side takes control

That imbalance is the trend, and it lasts until the other side finally steps in. Image
If price returns to the level it came from, it’s a reversal.

If it moves to the next level, it’s a continuation

The cloud flip nails reversals (link below)

For continuations, you want to see a cloud bounce
The cloud bounce has three steps

1. The price is in a supply/demand level
2. The higher timeframe cloud is trending (up/down)
3. Price bounces off the cloud

Let’s break it down:
1) The price is in a supply/demand level

Cloud bounces are everywhere, but 90% are garbage.

The only ones that matter are inside zones where real volume sits.
We’ve tagged supply on the 5-minute chart

Step 1 is complete.

Now it’s time to hunt for the actual setup Image
We’re in an uptrend.

For continuation, the cloud has to hold and bounce.

If it fails, we’ll see a cloud flip & potential reversal.

Our job is simple: decide if price is headed for supply above or demand below. Image
2) The higher timeframe cloud is trending

Every valid setup aligns with the bigger picture.

On the 30 min–2h charts, the EMA cloud tells us which side has control.

In this case, the cloud is trending up, keeping our bias long. Image
Trade what’s in front of you, not what you hope for.

When the cloud trends up across timeframes, structure confirms higher
highs/lows, and resistance isn’t in play,

That’s as clean a signal as you’ll get for continuation.
3) Price bounces off the cloud

With the higher timeframe bias confirmed, we zoom back into the 5 min for entry.

The best signal comes when price dips into the cloud, forms a higher low, and bounces back out.
This dip into the cloud lets bulls grab liquidity and rebuild structure before ripping higher.

Once the bounce confirms, we enter.

Stop under the cloud, and target the next supply. Image
Now you step aside and let the market do the work.

The trend does the heavy lifting.

Your only job: follow the 3 steps and stack profit consistently. Image

Volume profile is the closest thing in trading to a broken slot machine.

But 97% of traders use it wrong or overcomplicate it

Here's how to trade it the right way (and make it insanely profitable): Image
Volume Profile shows you how much volume was traded at each price.

The two zones that matter:

High Volume Nodes (HVNs) = high volume levels where price gets stuck, chops, consolidates

Low Volume Nodes (LVNs) = low volume levels where price rips clean and fast Image
Image
Ever notice how price randomly wicks off certain levels then snaps back?

It’s not random.

Those are LVNs - areas with no buyer/seller interest

Price gets rejected instantly and snaps back to HVNs

Once you see this, the chart stops looking random… and starts making sense

A+ setups will be the majority of your PnL.

But most traders miss them without even knowing it.

I kept wondering why my best trades turned red…

Until I discovered the 4 key factors every setup needs to actually work.

Here’s how to finally nail them and get paid:
Most traders look for reasons to enter a trade.

But that’s backwards.

The real question is:
“Why wouldn’t the market move the other way?”

You’ll never know the exact move
But you don’t need to
If you get the direction right, you’ll get paid no matter how messy the path looks.

Direction starts as a 50/50 guess.

Stack just a slight edge above that… and your PnL will explode.

Here are the 4 factors I use to tilt the odds:

I used to beg the market for just $1000 a month profit

Now I easily make that in a day

And the secret to it is embarrassingly simple...

Steal this no bs guide if you want to grow from $0 to $1k/day:
🧵
The market doesn’t care how hard you work.

You can have the best win rate, clean charts, discipline, etc.

But if you’re risking peanuts, your returns will always be peanuts.

& if you start oversizing, your results collapse into pure gambling.
How much you make in trading boils down to ONE thing: your risk per trade.

That single number controls how much money you’ll make

But everyone gets it wrong.

The cleanest money I make is from ONE setup:

A breakout that prints $1–3k within minutes almost every day.

But 95% of traders botch it.

Here’s how to nail it every single time:
🧵 Image
Breakouts have built entire trading careers

But if not traded correctly, you’ll catch tons of fake breakouts and grind breakeven (at best)

This is how you skip the traps, and catch the real ones:
How would you trade this?

We see a few attempted breakouts on both sides

If you tried trading any of these breakouts, you’d be deep in the red. Image

Scaling is the only way to take trading from “side income” to life-changing wealth

But most traders are stuck recycling the same few thousand dollars & never take off

Here’s the foolproof way to scale until your account goes parabolic:
🧵
Two traders start trading on the same day.

Same account size, same skill level.

5 years later:

Trader A: multiple 5-figures every month
Trader B: same results as day 1

Why the massive gap?
The difference boils down to this:

Trader A simply put himself in a position to scale his account… and he did.

Trader B never did, so he never grew.

Hitting $10k/mo only takes one setup you can execute without thinking

Don't need anything else to be profitable

Trading everything got me stuck in breakeven jail for months

Until I discovered this ONE setup & easily cracked 5-figures/mo

Here's how to trade the cloud flip:
🧵
First, we need to set up the cloud indicator on Tradingview

1. In the indicators tab, type “ema cloud” and select the 2nd option
2.  Go to the EMA cloud’s settings and change the values to 20, 50, 50 Image
Image
Second, ONLY trade it at supply/demand levels

Cloud flips happen often, but most of them are garbage

We only care about flips that occur inside institutional price zones

No level = no trade.
