Why Less Trading Gives Better Results!Hey hey traders! We're coming to you with a nice and short video on why trading less is actually better for you, atleast based on our experience! Being a full time day trader I found it hard to actually be at my best and trade all day long... at the end of the day trading is a means to an end, its only purpose is for you to exchange your knowledge, effort and focus for money, yet you do not need to sit there all day to do that, 60mins of focus is better than a whole day of nothing. Try what we preach for the rest of the week and you'll be amazed at your performance! Good luck trading!

The basics of back-testing (HOW TO)Hey Traders, Today I wanted to follow on from the fantastic amount of comments that we are receiving from the previous video, "stop strategy jumping." It seems that so many of you took a whole heap of value from that video and for that I am very thankful and to everyone who reached out and told their story or let me know that it really touched them. As highly requested, I wanted to run through a basic way to start getting the grips with strategy back-testing. How can we go about back-testing our strategies to ensure that they are profitable for us in the long run? Take a look, have a listen and tune in. Set up an excel sheet the way I do and get back testing. There's only one way to do this, and it is to do the hard work. Let me know what you guys find. I can go more in depth in the future, but for now. It seems like most people wanted to get to grips with the absolute basics, which is what I'm going to show you today. If you have any questions at all, please the comment section is the place to be. As always, have a fantastic trading week and a fantastic weekend traders. I'll see you very soon.

LET'S GET REAL: Stop Strategy Jumping!Hey Traders, This one is going to be a little bit different, a little bit deeper and a little bit harder to listen to rather than usual technical analysis. I recommend you sit down and listen to this. Have a think whether it relates to you or whether you found yourself in this position, or even if you've gone through this position and share your experience on how you go through it. A lot of traders struggle with their strategy, jumping from aspects of trading and that's why so many educators out there make a lot of money off of them. It is time to stop. In this video I outlay a challenge that I put to all the traders who may find themselves in this position to sit down and to thoroughly test their current or previous strategies and understand them on a deeper level. No more jumping around, no more looking outwards. Let's start looking inwards. Let's see the data that we have handed to us and what we can do to improve that data. If you enjoyed this video, please leave a comment. Leave a like, if we do get enough likes and comments, I will make a Part 2 on how to go about this with a more depth avenue while using different resources. As always, have a fantastic training week.

The Element of Time - The Most Underrate Technical Analysis ToolMarket timing is an essential tool whether you're a day-trader, portfolio manager and/or long-term investor. I present to you the most underrated technical analysis tool in the space of retail trading. The purpose of this short educational webinar is to open your eyes to something you don't hear about abundantly because it is the most disregarded aspect of trading in my opinion. As an intraday trader, my main focus is on the speculation of "the next daily candle". However, I first analyze and project on "the next weekly candle". Each weekly candle is broken into 5 individual daily candles, and each daily candle is broken down into 3 main market sessions - namely, Asia, London & New York Session. You'll find that my main focus in this lesson is on the day in which you find a lower / upper wick being created on the weekly candle. More often than not, "Tuesday" typically forms the low of a bullish weekly candle, and the high of a bearish weekly candle. Watch the lesson entirely, take notes, but most importantly, let it open up the opportunity for you to exponentially elevate your trading skillset.

How to analyze any market from scratch #3Hello everyone: Many of you have asked me to continue making more of these analysing from scratch video, so I have prepared another one here for you today. Not only will we refresh the previous 2 educational videos on this topic, I will go into a bit more details on the confirmation on the lower time frames with multiple examples in the chart. Recall from the previous videos I made, when we want to analyze the chart from scratch, we always start: 1. From the higher time frames (HTF) to identify the impulse/correction phases of the market conditions so we can come up with a possible bias and direction of the current price. 2. Once we have a possible direction and bias, then we go down to the lower time frames (LTF) to also identify the impulse/correction phases which will lead to your confirmation and entry. These are simple steps to follow, based on multi-time frame analysis, top down approach. Many have told me it's not hard to identify the HTF’s impulse and correction, but what can be classified as a LTF confirmation before entry? Let's take a detail look into a few examples: A LTF confirmation is when the price is developing a few more price action structures/patterns that align with your HTF direction and bias. These can be continuation/reversal corrections on the LTF; impulse phases on the LTF that go with your bias on the HTF; multiple corrections within the larger corrections (patterns within patterns)...etc. The more of these LTF price actions you can identify, the more it strengthens your analysis and forecast on the HTF. Thank you Do check out my previous educational contents on this same topic to better learn my approach to analyse any market from scratch.

How To : Chart Formations Critical Second Top & Bottom Entry Hi Traders and Investors This video is a follow up from my previous posting dealing with shifts of momentum. This time we are looking to add an additional synergy - the second touch in a chart formation - which can be found in Double Tops, Double Bottoms and head shoulder formations. Correctly using the second touch on the chart formations has allowed me to avoid many mistakes in my evaluating my trades and I hope that it will help you in evaluating your trades. When you look at the Double Top and Double Bottom chart formations, you will notice that high frequency trading and algorithms trading will often create the formation of a second top to the same level as the first top or slightly higher by taking stops pilling at the first top . At this point, you want to wait for the synergies to come into play and use your tools to look for a shift in momentum on the 2nd top touch see video. Waiting for the shift in momentum to occurs after the second touch, is a critical piece of of information that will prevent you from taking trades that are likely to be stopped out on the first test. Hope it helps have a great week end Marc

How To Become A Profitable Trader: Part 2Hey guys! In this video, I talk about building a trader mindset. This isn't meant to be a marketing term either, I truly believe that Traders see the world differently, because all we do all day is calculate risk and reward, bat rate and win loss. Expected value is the holy grail. On top of that, I also examine the different types of competition you will face on different timeframes. This is important for getting a broad overview about HOW to best compete and win in any type of market. Hopefully now you have a better awarness of the types of trading that take place, and principles and supply and demand and mispricing that are key to effective trading. In the final videos, I will talk more about risk control, as well as some concrete strategies that I think people should consider using. I've seen them build fortunes before, and I don't see a reason why they shouldn't work for you. This includes: - A long term, low maintenance strategy for crushing the S&P. 40 years running! - A unique strategy that earns yield on cash and combines lots of the edges discussed in this video - and more Spoiler alert, there isn't much about short term trading, because generally I don't think you should be doing much of that. That said, I do give some tips there as well for those willing to brave those wilds. Cheers! -AW

HOW TO: Find the money making stocks, cryptos and FX pairsToday I'm going to be looking to something a little bit different than our normal analytics! We're going to dive into the tradingview screener! The Forex Screener specifically, but everything I do talk about does also apply to the crypto Screener and the stock Screener. What I want to explain is how I use it to find pairs, stocks and cryptos which are setting up the way I want them to, in order for me to day trade. I show how I use a range of different Bollinger bands to moving averages to overall technical aspects, like growth statistics or reaching all time highs. The Forex Screener and the tradingview tools that they offer is top of the range stuff. I recommend trying to figure out how to use them and how to utilize them to benefit you in your trading. Have a listen. Have a look yourself through the Tradingview screener and the different technical aspects in which you can change. I guarantee it'll streamline your process in finding the right pairs that you're going to choose when it comes down to day trading. I hope you enjoyed it. If you did, please leave a comment and a like. As always, have a very successful week of trading guys. Thank you.

How To : Momentum Shifts ( Key Set Ups) Hi Traders! Lets review 3 Trade SetUp For Key Momentum Shifts: For the past 28 years, I have been using three simple trades setups, that I'll explain in the video, to be selective in my trades and to identify key momentum shifts in the market. I hope these setups will be useful to you as well. High Frequency Traders and Professional Traders will often run retail trader stops by blowing through key support and resistance levels like round numbers only to reverse shortly afterwards. We must protect ourselves from these tactics and be careful not to chase a move or get stopped out. Recognizing and patiently waiting for one of these trade set up will help especially if you combined or recognize them with a chart formations like a double tops or head and shoulder pattern. Trade Setup 1: Cross above a key resistance, recross below = shift of momentum. The same setup can be used with a cross below a key support level. Trade Setup 2: Cross above a key resistance, recross below and a retest of the resistance with a Lower Higher = shift of momentum. This is my preferred setup. Trade Setup 3: 2 touches to a key resistance or 2 touches to a key support and entering on the 3rd touch for a 66% probability of successful trade. I hope these setup are helpful, whether you trade or invest, using key momentum shifts with support and resistance lines. Hope it helps Take care Marc

How to continue in trading during uncertainty timeHello traders: Recently I received many messages from traders about taking many losses during this uncertain time. What's going on globally right now may have a different impact on all the different markets. Many have told me of your frustration, stress, and negative emotion on losing money and continue to feel defeated. Today I will explain a few things that you can implement into your current trading plan, approach and perspective during this period of time. First, you must acknowledge risk management. Too many traders ignore this key important aspect of trading. Especially during this time where the market can be volatile and irregular. It's in your best interest to understand how to manage your risk. You should have a plan that lists out how your approach would be. For example for my risk management right now: -1% per trade of account capital. -No more than 1 trade on the same currency, unless the first trade is secure in profit. -No more than 2 trades open during a day, max drawdown 2% per day -10-15 trades per month -3 trades maximum per week -Minimum 3:1 RR allow before entry -Will Take profit on average when in profit 3:1 RR. Second, learn to control your mindset and emotions. More often when traders approach me these days, they are telling me they are taking too many trades, chasing profits and revenge trading their losses. All these arise from the mistakes of FOMO, get rich quick mindset, enter multiple trades. IF a trader can truly understand the fact that the market will always be there tomorrow, next week, next month..etc, then it's an easier thing to deal with on a psychological level. You will no longer stress about trying to enter too many trades, worry that the market may not be available tomorrow. Third, less social media exposure. In today’s world, unfortunately in trading, most of the things you see on social media are fabricated and fake. Their sole purpose is to sell you a dream, lifestyle, and easy money concept. ITs always during this uncertain time, you will see more and more of these “gurus” who will show you how much $ they made during this time. Now, I am not saying all are fake or scam, I am sure small # of them are doing well. But, most of the things you will see in your social media feed, are likely to be photoshopped, faked, fabricated to make you believe whatever you are doing is wrong, and you tend to “compare” your result with these people. This ended up becoming very negative and stressful to continue. ITs important to understand trading is one of the toughest professions out there. IT requires so much emotion control, clear mindset, and proper psychology on a regular basis. If you are struggling, it's usually not to do with your trading strategy, but rather your approach, perspective, and perception. So, eliminate as many unrealistic things you might see, and focus on yourself and your journey. Any questions, comments or feedback welcome to let me know. Thank you
