I blew up multiple accounts before I realized this:

Complex strategies weren’t the solution.

They were the distraction.

Here’s the brutally simple system I use now (and why it works): 🧵👇 1/ Start with bias.

Most traders guess direction, you won’t.

Plot your 20 & 200 MAs.
- Price above both = bullish bias
- Price below both = bearish bias
- 20 crossing the 200 = transition

This is your compass. Don’t fight it.

Most traders overcomplicate everything.

Here’s my trading system:
- One Timeframe
- Two moving averages
- One fib level
- Simple execution

Let me show you 🧵👇 🎯 One timeframe = One intention

5min → day trades
1H → swing trades
Daily → position trades/investing

No flipping back and forth.
Clarity comes from commitment.

99% of traders fail.

Not because their strategy sucks, but because they can’t follow simple rules.

This 61.8 retracement system could make you rich.

But only if you can master yourself. 🧵👇 1/ You don’t need a complicated strategy, secret patterns, fancy indicators...

A simple setup like:
- Entry: 61.8% retracement
- Stop: below the swing low
- Target: 3R

Can be more than enough, but…

The 61.8% retracement is my favorite level in trading.

It’s not magic.
It’s not luck.
It’s as close as we get to solving the market.

Here’s why it works and why I trust it more than any indicator 🧵👇 1/ It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Millions of traders watch it.
Banks watch it.
Algos watch it.

So when price pulls back to 61.8%, people act.

The level works not because it’s mystical but because the herd believes in it.

🚀 The most important POI you’re probably missing:

The Move Origin 🙌

It’s the launchpad for explosive moves, and it can make or break your trades.

Master it, and you’ll wonder how you ever traded without it 🧵👇 1/ 🎯 What is a Move Origin?

Simply put, it's the exact area on a high timeframe (HTF) chart where price started an aggressive, impulsive move.

Price frequently returns here to retest, creating powerful trade opportunities.

STOP HUNTS MADE SIMPLE

You don’t need a fancy strategy to catch Turtle Soup setups.

All you need is liquidity + RSI Divergence to spot stop hunts and fade the fake move.

Here’s the simplest way to do it: 🧵👇 1/ What is Turtle Soup?

It’s just a stop hunt reversal.

Market makers run stops above a key high (or below a key low) to trap breakout traders, then price reverses.

Your job? Wait for the trap and take the other side.

Swing Breakout Sequence #SBS

It’s the most reliable setup I’ve ever taught.

This thread will show you:
- How it works
- Why it’s powerful
- How YOU can use it 🧵👇 1/ What is SBS?

SBS is a price action sequence that happens after the breakout.

1. Breakout
2. First Tap
3. Quick Sclap
4. Return to Liquidate FT
5. Reversal

🚨 WARNING: Most traders are trapped in slow-motion failure.

They grind for years, getting nowhere.

But the fastest path to mastery isn’t what you think.

Read on and uncover the secret: 👇🧵 1/ Forget the daily chart.

It’s a graveyard for learning.

Start where the action is: the 1min or even seconds chart.

It’s chaos - but chaos is the fastest teacher.

🚨 WARNING: 99% of traders fail because they fall into a deadly trap.

Charts are full of bullish AND bearish setups at the same time.

Most traders can’t tell which ones will work…
And which ones will destroy their accounts.

Here’s the secret the pros use 👇🧵 1/ The market doesn’t care about your feelings, your predictions, or your hopes.

It only respects one thing: the TREND!

And the simplest way to uncover the trend?

The 20 SMA and 200 SMA.

These two lines are the key to filtering the noise.

🧵 Why do profitable traders sell courses/mentorships?

Isn’t trading enough to make money?

Let’s break the myth 👇 1/ Some people think: “If a trader is profitable, why would they sell courses? Just trade and make money!”

But that assumption misses the bigger picture.

Here’s why even successful traders might choose to teach.

RIP ICT Concepts 💀

STP is all you need 👑

While ICT Concepts overcomplicate trading with repackaged basics that lead to confusion, the Stoic Trader Protocol (STP) focuses on mastering the essentials.

Here’s how STP works: 🧵👇 2/ ICT Concepts: A Maze of Confusion

ICT often teaches flashy methods wrapped in complex jargon.

🌀 Overloading with “concepts” ≠ actionable clarity.
📉 Most traders end up chasing shadows, losing their edge.

ICT sells complexity. STP thrives on simplicity.

Trader Mindset vs. Analyst Mindset 🧵

Most traders fail because they approach the market like analysts, trying to predict every move.

Here’s why that’s a mistake and how shifting to the Trader Mindset can transform your results.

Let’s dive in: The Analyst Mindset

Analysts are obsessed with:
• Forecasting trends
• Building narratives about why markets move
• Being right at all costs

While this works for analysis, it’s a TRAP for traders. Why?

1/ Trading concepts and theories are everywhere.

You name it: SMC, ICT, Supply & Demand, Moon Cycles...

They all work. But why aren’t you profitable? 2/ The problem isn't the strategy.

It’s YOU. Your execution fails.

Knowledge is abundant, but how you apply it makes all the difference.

BULL TRAP THESIS 🧐

Read this comprehensive thread so you understand why this is the BIGGEST BULL TRAP that we have ever seen

#thread 🧵 Let's start with JPOW & Interest Rates

Currently, Fed has been raising interest rates to battle inflation which puts downward pressure on the #StockMarket

So if Fed keeps raising rates, it's #bearish for #stocks & #crypto.
