Timeframes Are Everything⏰

Here’s how I use Timeframe Alignments with the help of my new indicator to hunt the HIGHEST probability setups🏹

A thread🧵 First, let’s understand timeframe alignments🧐

Timeframe alignment is key to identifying high-probability trades.

If you’ve been following me, you know that I start with the highest timeframe (Monthly) and begin looking for context there.

Trading is hard, but I made it 10x harder with these mistakes.

Here are the 5 worst trading mistakes I made—and the lessons that turned my game around.

A Thread.🧵 Mistake #1: Over leveraging

Early on, I thought bigger size = bigger wins.

Spoiler: it doesn't.

One bad trade wiped out weeks of progress.

Risking 5-10% per trade made me emotional and reckless.

Stick to 1-2% risk per trade. Staying small kept me in the game.

Focus on compounding capital to be able to take small risk and make big $.

NOT big risk to make big $.

Avoid these 3 COMMON trading pitfalls⚠️

After reading this thread, you’ll know why your trades keep failing.

A Thread🧵 Mistake #1: NOT understanding market context. 🙅‍♂️

This often happens to traders who forget to zoom out, trading against the higher timeframe trend without realizing it.

The HTF always rules. It is the stronger magnet for price.

Ex: If there is a HTF FVG below price, all LTF discount arrays above it are lower probability and expected to fail as price will seek the HTF imbalance.

Why did this 4h FVG fail?

I mentioned why I was avoiding it on yesterdays forecast... Here is the reason why ⬇️

This is my favorite way to identify reversals in the market!🔍

By the end of this thread, you’ll see how easy it is to trade reversals using IMPULSE SHIFTS!

A thread🧵 First, let’s define what an impulse shift is:

An impulse shift is simply a fair value gap displacing away from a HTF point of interest.

It is a V-shaped reversal that confirms that the orderflow is now shifting from a sell program to a buy program.

By the end of this, you’ll know the foundations to my entire model!

A thread🧵 First, let’s talk about context.

Context is simply the movement from one PD array to another.

In the case of a Push context (IRL → ERL), the context range is from FVG to the Swing point.

In the case of a Pull context (ERL → IRL), the context range is from the Swing point to the FVG.

A Thread🧵 So what are futures and futures contracts?🤔

Futures are derivative assets wherein the value is tied to a certain asset.

Trading futures means that you’re just capitalizing on the price movements without actually owning the asset.

The Simplest Way Of Looking At Candlesticks: OHLC/OLHC

This was a game-changer in my understanding of price movement!

After reading this, you'll see just how powerful the OHLC/OLHC concept really is in anticipating moves before they happen.

A Thread🧵 First, let’s define them properly.

As you can see, OLHC stands for Open, Low, High, and Close which is the movement of a bullish candle.

The understanding of power of 3 can be applied here.

If we are expecting the next candle to be bullish, it will almost always form like this:

Price accumulates in the open, then manipulates below opening price, and then distributes higher, and finally closes.

Unlock the secret to reading market strength like a pro:

Here’s how I use Smart Money Technique (SMT) to track relative strength between correlated assets—and nail the highest-probability setups before they unfold.

Let’s dive into the power of SMT.

A Thread 🧵 Remember what I taught you in my Unicorn video.

Price only reverses in two ways: Breaker swings and Failure swings.

This also applies in SMT, where we measure the pair’s strength, whether it is strong enough to take the liquidity or fail to do so.

We can then determine which pair to trade, depending on the market context.

Your FVGs Keep Failing. Here’s Why:

You’re trading at the wrong times. Killzones hold the secret to making your strategy click. Here’s how to use them properly.

A Thread 🧵👇 First, let’s define what a killzone is.

Killzone are specific periods during the trading day where volatility is typically higher.

Volatility brings energy, which brings displacement into the market creating high probability FVGs

This will always be ideal for scalpers and intraday traders.

Have you ever wondered how a candlestick forms and how it can help you determine direction?

Let’s talk about “Power of 3 (PO3)”: the logic behind candlestick creation.

A thread🧵 A candlestick has four parts.

The opening price, the high of the candle, the low of the candle, and the close of the candle.

On a bullish candle, it will always be Open, Low, High, Close.

On a bearish candle, it will always be Open, High, Low, Close.

The Most POWERFUL Trading Entry: The Unicorn Model🦄

This is a complete breakdown of what I look for DAILY in the futures market.

A thread🧵 First, we must understand that price only reverses in two ways.📉

Breaker swings and Failure swings.

What’s the difference?

A breaker swing takes liquidity before the reversal.

On the other hand, a failure swing fails to take the liquidity.

Everyone says that you should “trade with the trend”📈

But how can you trade with the trend? Simple.

You need to become a Higher Timeframe Analysis Expert.

A thread🧵 First, what does a higher timeframe (HTF) analysis expert do?🤔

They scan the monthly, weekly, and daily for context aligned with HTF order flow.

In my Swing system, if I don’t see the context on those three timeframes, I move to another pair.

This filters out the low-probability movements that can occur for several pairs.

In this thread, I’ll break down my personal approach and show you how you can apply it to your trades.

A thread🧵 If you’ve been following me, you know that I always look for HTF context in every trade.

As I’ve said countless times before, price only does 2 things:

-Seek Liquidity
-Offer fair value

Understanding this will give you a simple and accurate view of market direction.

All my high-probability trades have this in common:

They are aligned with HTF Order Flow.

Apply this to your trading and watch your win rate rise✅

A Thread🧵 First, let’s define Order Flow 📝

Specifically, bullish and bearish order flow.

On a bullish order flow, discount arrays hold while premium arrays fail.

On a bearish order flow, discount arrays fail while premium arrays hold.

This is how I CONSISTENTLY find High Probability Swing Trades! 🔎💎

A Thread🧵 All swing trades have a common theme.

They all look similar to each other.

But what are those similarities? That’s what you’ll read about today⬇️

You lose money because you don’t understand low-probability conditions🎲

Here are 5 low-probability conditions you should know and avoid:

A thread🧵 The thing that holds many traders back is their inability to spot conditions that they shouldn’t be trading in.

They trade a pattern for the sake of trading a pattern and don’t factor in market conditions.

You ABSOLUTELY need to know how to spot low-probability conditions if you want to be a consistent trader.

This is right here is what I believe will SKYROCKET your win rate🚀

Here’s exactly how I use currency futures to measure relative strength.

A Thread🧵 1) Let's start by listing the futures tickers we’ll be using.

Most currency futures follow a simple format: 6E1!

Where the letter between 6 and 1 is the first letter of the currency name.

How to KNOW which currency pair is STRONGER? 💪

Here's how you can find high-probability trades on your favorite currency pairs.

Everything you need to know about EG/AZ:

A Thread 🧵 EG & AZ stands for EURGBP and AUDNZD.

These pairs are what are known as “Cross Pairs”

These two pairs have two parts, base currency and quote currency.

This means that it is EUR’s price action vs GBP’s price action

Feeling overwhelmed by the market?

Here are a few mistakes that traders should try to avoid and how to actually correct them✅

A Thread🧵 1 - Forcing Trades 🚫

I used to feel the need to trade all the time, even before I was profitable and consistent.

Day in and out, I kept entering trades that didn’t really align with my plan.

The only thing that helped me stop was strictly following my trading plan as if it were a checklist.

If the market does this… → Then, I’ll do this…

This approach removed the confusion from my trading decisions and allowed me to approach the charts with confidence.
