Prop Firms Will Report Me For This Butโ€ฆ

Here is the secretโ€ฆHOW TO BEAT A LOSING GAME. ๐ŸŽฏ

By the end of the thread I will DM you my exact model that got me over 1mil in prop capital

A Thread๐Ÿงต Image UNDERSTAND WHY THEY WIN

Manipulation: Many prop forms manipulate spreads to create sub-par trading conditions for traders. This increases chances of failure.

Psychological pressure: evaluation process, drawdown rules combined with a risk of losing a funded account or having strict trading limits, are designed to make you self-sabotage.

Leverage: Prop firms often provide high leverage, which is enticing but extremely risky.

Rules: Prop firms are loaded with rules to make it harder to achieve payouts. Your upside is their downside as a business.
Evaluation processes, drawdown limits, consistency rules, are all designed to make traders self sabotage.

Pricing: they charge relatively low fees compared to the account, which makes you feel like it's not a big deal to make mistakes. Since you can achieve another account easily.Image

Starting with the weekly and daily charts, marking internal liquidities and external liquidities. Where is the price coming from and where is it going?
Are there external liquidity pools (highs/lows outside the previous week)?
Are we drawing to internal liquidity pools (these are usually found inside last weekโ€™s range)?

These are all the questions you should ask and answer yourself.Image

A Thread.๐Ÿงต Image 1. What is Discount & Premium?

Every price range can be divided into two sections:

โ€ข Premium (Above 50%) โ†’ Price is expensive. Institutions look to sell.
โ€ข Discount (Below 50%) โ†’ Price is cheap. Institutions look to buy.
Smart money never buys at a premium or sells at a discount.

If youโ€™re entering a long trade in the premium zone, you are providing liquidity for professionals to exit.Image

By the end of this thread, youโ€™ll know how to enter the market knowing exactly where price is headed.

A Thread.๐Ÿงต Image Identify Your Internal & External Liquidity (FVG and swing highs/lows)

External Range Liquidity (ERL): these are the obvious highs and lows where retail stops are likely sitting, outside the current trading range.

Internal Range Liquidity (IRL): this is the liquidity that exists inside the current dealing range. Itโ€™s where price seeks short-term targets before heading to ERL.

Usually coming in the form of FVG, even those swing lows/highs you see in a small time-frame are FVG when you are a time-frame higher.Image

Price moves in response to liquidity grabs, imbalances, and Smart Money positioning.

โœ… Bullish Orderflow โ†’ Higher highs & higher lows, price is respecting discount pd arrays.

โœ… Bearish Orderflow โ†’ Lower highs & lower lows, price is respecting premium arrays.Image

Prop firms make money from evaluation fees, activation fees, & profit splits from sim-funded & live traders . Considering that 90% of traders are unprofitable, the most lucrative of these is failed evaluation fees from traders.

This means strict rules, manipulation, and the denial of payouts.Image
