HOW TO BE THE 1% 🤔💫🤩
Our culture is obsessed with the rich, famous, and successful people, yet what is left behind is both the hard work and sacrifices of those who «made it»
And millions of those who failed miserably en route to fame and became nothing.
There are multiple theories on and philosophical systems, that reflect on success, but ill bring out the key points:🔑
➡️ Genetics, upbringing, and connections determine 70% of the outcome.
Oh yes, as much as we don’t like to think about it, it is genetics that determines our capacity for sports, singing, our intelligence, speed of reaction, etc.
For example, musical talent is determined by the specific structures in the brain, and some people have those from birth, and some people do not.
These structures might differ by a factor of 10.000 from person to person, even though the brain size would be the same.
So you might spend 20 years in musical training and be good, but you will never be a Mozart without those structures in your brain.
Training and upbringing, In turn, affect whether you will be able to use these Brain structures, as well as the society in which you were born, determines if your talents will be useful or not.
One might be born a genius mathematician, but if he did not get good training, or if he was born in the dark ages, his talent would have been wasted.
One's family and social circle affect which connections will the person have in adult life , and it is for better or worse but cronyism and nepotism as still widespread, And the connected ones, even without being super bright, usually outdo those that aren’t.
➡️ Pareto 20/80 Rule, or risky business VS the safe one.
Almost everything in life follows the Pareto Rule, which says that 20% of your effort brings you 80% of the result.
There is another interpretation too: 20% of people will have 80% of all success in the given industry.
This rule applies best and in its extremes to the high-end risky businesses with ultra-high failure rates paired with the ultra-high payoff.
These industries are Acting, Music, Sports, and Trading!
As you can see, in acting, which is the extreme case, 1% of the actors make 80% of the Income generated by the industry. The same goes for music and sports where the select few make the big buck, and those that aspired but failed, barely make a living. Compare this to being an engineer or a doctor. The failure rate is much lower, which lowers the risk of entering the profession, but the highest potential income is lower too!
This applies to Trading too, as once you’ve learned how to be consistently profitable, the sky is the limit. There is no difference in the cost of labor or time spent on making a trade with the risk of 100$ and making a trade with the risk of 100.000$
Of course, at some point, your trades will get so big, that YOU will start moving the market trying to enter the trade, but that’s a story for another day.
➡️ Your power of will, determination, patience, and readiness for sacrifice.
Trading is a unique industry, where ANYONE can succeed , without needing a diploma, connections, or looks.
In essence, trading at its core is about pattern recognition . You discover a pattern, learn to find it on the chart, and then find a way to use this knowledge to extract monetary gains by playing this pattern with the probability being on your side. That's it. That easy.
Then why is it, that 99.9% of those who try trading, ultimately fail?
In my years of trading, I’ve noticed a pattern: 💡
A - GET RICH FAST attitude
B - Do not spend time educating themselves
C - Do not treat Trading like a business
D - Lack of Patience
E - Can not follow rules
⚠️ People think that forex is a Magic Money Tree, just stretch forth your hand, and you will drown in gold …
In reality, however, learning to trade will take YEARS , will cost you a fortune and no one will guarantee you success.
HERE IS MY ADVICE TO THE NEW TRADERS: 🤓
🎯 HAVE THE RIGHT MINDSET
1)Prepare for failure, disappointment, and tears
2)Realize that you will train for YEARS
3)Learn to fight and not to give up
🎯 GET GOOD HABITS:
1) We ARE our habits , so recognize what is good for you, and make it a habit
2)Staying in good health is underestimated, while in reality, your physical condition has a direct effect on your mind.
3) Work on your mistakes. You will never learn If you do not access your previous work critically.
4) Make a plan for a week , then break it into daily tasks. Do it for a month and that will become a habit.
🎯 MANAGE YOUR FINANCES WELL
1) Learning to trade is expensive and time-consuming, so make sure you have an income.
2) Learn basic financial literacy and spend less than you make. Easy right? But if you lose an account that cushion will help.
3) Do NOT quit your job the moment you became profitable. This sounds obvious, but the market will test you multiple times, and unless you’ve got enough savings to last for 1 YEAR without working, ditching a stable source of income will not only make you vulnerable but will also affect you mentally which will negatively affect your trading.
📈 FOLLOW these steps and you will increase your chances of success in trading by a factor of 10!

DOGEUSDTSo DOGE has been following Bitcoin recently, I think it's joining the main crypto pattern like LTC and ETH.
Use this as your trade setup, The supplier areas can hold the price up and the resistance is not hodling for long and we're gonna have to retest it soon, so I guess it's a good time for high trade with stop lost.
I'll keep this chart updated.

BTC/USDIn case the bulls can close the weekly bar above 38.4k, there would be a decent chance to see 42k again this weeks. I'm looking at the current major support as a good entry point this period for BTC , only to resume the bullish move after that. In a period of days BTC is currently +11.92% increase in value without any correction in between. and this is very healthy for the trend 🚀.

The RSI explained ! how to identify buy and sell signals Hello everyone , as we all know the market action discounts everything :) I have created this short video to explain what is the RSI and how to use it to identify buy and sell signals with this oscillator , everything you need to know about this indicator is right here.
Its been around since the late 70s so its probably one of the more established oscillators out there .
So lets check out the formula and how the RSI works :
RS=100 -100/1-RS
RS (relative strength) average X day up / average X day down
So simply lets say we are using a 10 days average so we check how many days the price closed up and we add them and we divide by 10 which would give us the average X days up.
And we do the same for the average X days down but we calculate how many days the price closed down and then we add them and divide by 10 ,And after all of that has been calculated we will always get a value between 0% and 100%
And that's why the RSI is considered a bounded oscillator it means that the value will always be between 0 % and 100%
The oscillator has 2 major zones which are the overbought and oversold zones. Anything above 70% is considered overbought and anything below 30% the market considered oversold .
So when the market reaches overbought zone it tells us that the market has gone up to far and its due a bounce back down , and the same when it reaches oversold zone it means that the market has gone to far down and its due a bounce back up.
So looking to buy or sell when the market reaches oversold and overbought is one strategy .
But because the market moves a lot and reaches these levels so much this way is not as reliable that much , the better way to use the RSI is to check if it has a divergence with the market price.
what is a divergence you may ask !!!
A Divergence is when the price of the market is moving in the opposite direction of a technical indicator, such as an oscillator, Divergence warns that the current price trend may be weakening, and in some cases may lead to the price changing direction.
These signals of divergences doesn’t happen that often but they do give us a better way to use the RSI .
And there is it that’s everything you need to know about the RSI and how it works it’s a really simple oscillator and its one of the most popular oscillators used by technical analysts.

$BOXL learning tech company analysis *This is not financial advice, so trade at your own risks*
*My team digs deep and finds stocks that are expected to perform well based off multiple confluences*
*Experienced traders understand the uphill battle in timing the market, so instead my team focuses mainly on risk management*
This weekend my team dived into tech company $BOXL to see whether or not it deserves a spot among our other premium stock portfolio holdings. $BOXL focuses on the education and learning industry to which they offer services that enable teachers to successfully enhance student performance.
After correcting from its 52-week high of $4.65 $BOXL now sits at just $2.59 per share. My team is proceeding with caution. We still have yet to enter, but we like $BOXL a lot.
We will be placing a buy limit at $2.30 Monday morning 6/28/21.
There is possibility that we may miss out if $BOXL decides to take off from current price levels...but with ample money making opportunities in the market my team still eats either way.
BUY LIMIT: $2.30
TAKE PROFIT: $4.00

Everything about the Stochastic oscillator !!!!Hello everyone , as we all know the market action discounts everything :)
A lot of people asked me about the Stochastic oscillator so i prepared this video for you guys explaining it please enjoy .
or if you prefer to reading :
First thing you need to know is that the stochastic oscillator is a momentum index just like the RSI it looks at the price momentum.
A DR.George Lane developed it in the 1950s.
So let us talk about the stochastic oscillator now
it has 2 lines %K (blue color) and %D (Red color)
this is how we use it :
1_ the Stochastic oscillator indicates overbought and oversold state of the market cuz the stochastic is a bounded indicator that means its bounded between 0 and 100 range ( above 80 overbought , bellow 20 oversold )
2_we use it to identify buy and sell signals using crossovers:
• If %K crosses below %D then it’s a sell signal
• If %k crosses above %D then it’s a buy signal
3_Divergance between the price and the Oscillator
We have 2 types of the Stochastic Oscillator:
Fast and slow
The difference between the Fast and Slow stochastic is:
1. The Fast stochastic is more sensitive than the Slow stochastic ( the most common problem for oscillators is the number of false signals that they give so the Slow stochastic tries to solve that problem )
2. Slow stochastic smooths out the %K line by averaging over (d) period
so let me make it simple the %K line in the Slow Stochastic is like the %D in the fast stochastic
Now let us talk about the Formula
%K=100. (C-Ln/Hn-Ln)
Where C is the current closing price
Ln is low in (n) period
Hn is high in (n) period
(n) Is the number of period and the default value for (n) is 15
Now the %D is calculated like this
%D=average %K/ (d) period
(d) Is the number for period and the default value for (d) is 3

It looks like the correction is still not over here and would likely extend lower. Most cryptocurrencies are in the correction phase now, even though many of them have been dropped more than 50% of their highest value. While we know that the current price action is a corrective phase, any further drop is only going to provide us with more long term buying opportunities.
how to predict wavelength from the chart (BNB USDT )fırst up wave made 23% and the down wave moved 16%
second up wave moved 15% and the down wave 10.4%
from these numbers we found a pattern
1- 16/23 = 69%
2- 10.4/15 = 69%
3- 15/23 = 65%
4- 10.4/16 = 65%
5- 15*65% = 9.75%
6- 10.4*65% = 6.76%
7- 6.76/9.75 = 69%
from these numbers we fıgure out from first up wave and down wave as u noted the length of down wave is 69%
and the second up and down trend was 69% ,
and the second up and down waves equal 65% first up and down waves
so we can predict next up wave and down wave
next up wave 9%
down wave 6.76%
KEY metrics PART 1: Does your strategy has Positive Expectancy?Does your strategy has Positive Expectancy?
The main idea of this post is to show that despite your trading style, the instruments you use to trade, the assets you think are better, your timeframe, etc... Profitability is about a positive result after adding all your losses and winning setups after a certain period of time. That is positive expectancy.
So, it's important to visualize this and ask yourself, Does my strategy has positive expectancy?
Let's take this example as a template, and then you can use it to evaluate your system.
If we have an initial Capital of 5000USD and we are risking 50 USD per trade (you risk 1% of your capital per trade), let see what happens after a year of executing this strategy that we will call "The Stock Strategy."
The most important metrics you want to take a look at in your strategy are:
-How much money I lose on average on the losing setups?
-How much money I win on average with my winning setups?
If you divide these two results: Average Win / Average loss, you will have your Average Risk Reward Ratio. This is VERY RELEVANT! This metric is telling you that, on average, you make 2 times what you risk when you are winning.
However, this metric by itself is useless; you need to ask how many times you are right after X amount of setups "in this case, we have 24 setups," and we can see that we are right 50% of the time.
Now we can check if your strategy has a positive expectancy: (Amount of Winning Trades * Average Risk Reward Ratio) - (Amount of losing trades * 1( that's 1% of your capital you are risking = FINAL RETURN.
In this case, we have a final return of 12% after a year on the Stock Strategy where we can conclude that we have a positive expectancy and its worth of trading. Once you have more experience and confidence with your strategy, you can optimize the average risk to 2%; for example, you will have a final return of 24% at the end of the year.
It's important to know that professional traders don't have one strategy; they have multiple strategies that tend to be independent, so, if you can develop 3 strategies, each of them with a positive expectancy (50% win rate, and average risk-reward ratio of 2) risking 1% of your capital per strategy, you can aim to a solid 36% per year.
Another key Metric to better understand your strategy is DrawDowns, but we will develop this in PART 2 of Key Metrics.
Thanks for reading! of course, there is much more to speak about this, but the idea was to make a simple introductory post on these two metrics that we consider extremely relevant.
ADAUSDADA started pushing up after retesting from its resistance zone . This resistance zone also confluening with downtrend line. $1.28 - $1.70 is the local support level . If broken then price can easily test around $1

Always engage with TP for strong support.
DOGEUSDT". There is a possibility of temporary retracement to the suggested support line (0.22820).
. if so, traders can set orders based on Price Action and expect to reach short-term targets."
Technical analysis:
. DOGEUSD is in a range bound, and the beginning of an uptrend is expected.
. The price is below the 21-Day WEMA, which acts as a dynamic resistance.
Always set TP:. in considering the droppage.
ETHUSDTEthereum / U.S. Dollar
ETH/USD Is in a falling wedge . this is of course a Bullish pattern how ever we must wait for the price to break this pattern Upwardly. there is also a Regular bullish divergence as well which suggests a incoming bullish movement! if the break out happens the price can reach the top of the wedge easily.

Pitchfork and Its Modifications From ScratchHi, traders!
Trading View gives us great opportunities to gain as much profit from analysis as it’s possible. Many tools indicators, including custom indicators let traders to extract all insights from the price action plot. However, many of us don’t know about very useful tools that TW gives us “from the box”. Well, today we’ll speak about pitchfork and its modifications.
Pitchfork
The technical indicator known as Andrews Pitchfork is not that well known and is rarely used by novice traders. However, it is a quick and easy way for traders to identify possible levels of support and resistance for price. It is created by placing three points at the end of previous trends and then drawing a line from the first point that runs through the midpoint of the other two points. The reason this indicator is called a "pitchfork" becomes apparent from the shape that is created in the chart.
How to draw?
Put the first point to the start of a new trend, second point on the next higher high, and the third to the lower low.
Shiff Pitchfork
But it’s good when we have no corrections. Try to draw pitchfork after it and you’ll fail. Fortunately, this problem has been solved with Shiff Pitchfork.
It has the same properties like the Original one, but the “corrections bug” is fixed.
How to draw?
Put the first point to the start of correction (pump), second point on the next higher high/lower low, and the third to the lower low/higher high.
Well, frankly speaking, the Original Pitchfork works well only on trend markets. For the corrections Shiff Pitchfork was invented. But what should we do with other cases? choppy market< for instance? Don’t worry, everything has been already invented.
The Modified Shiff Pitchfork
The Modified Shiff Pitchfork is heuristic above the Shiff pitchfork that specializes on sideways market movements.
How to draw?
Put the first point to the start of sideways movement, second point on the next higher high/lower low, and the third to the lower low/higher high.
