MY FIB SPEED RESISTANCE FAN TRADING STRAT : )
Hi! I'm xtekky and this is my tutorial on how to use the Fibonacci speed retracement tool- I used Apple (AAPL) as an example to display the tutorial.
Steps:
(1) Open the fib retracement section on the left bar and select the " Fib Speed Retracement Fan"
(2) According to your trading style, select the timeframe I indicated in the chart - to begin with - you can then choose the timeframe you are most comfortable with.
(2) Define the begin of an uptrend (after last retracement or reversal) and place your first point
(3) Define the end of the uptrend (after last retracement or reversal) and place your second point - if there isn't any recent retracements / reversals, you can take previous ones or the highest
recent value
(4) Define the most relevant percentage (38.2% on this chart) but it may as well be another level - note that fib levels 38.2% and 61.8% are often the most relevant ones
(5) Let the stock / crypto test the level once or twice to make sure it holds, you can of course jump in directly if you are confident.
(6) Take Longs and Shorts in the "Channel"
Advanced:
(7) Use momentum reversals (Squeeze Momentum from @LazyBear is the best indicator for me) to define more precisely when to jump in - note that the price doesn't always trade in the channel, there are some false breakouts and/or the price sometimes reverses a bit further.
(8) Use volume support / resistance zones
(9) Include Imbalances in the prices (If the Crypto/Stock you trade has a high volatility/manipulation rate)

Strategy!
Simple BUT Not EasyReading charts and understanding the "Language" of the market is very simple but at times due to high involvement of our emotions we make it very hard.
Any market or chart that you see will be in a phase all you have to do is identify it on a higher time frame.
Lower Lows & Lowers Highs is a definition of a down trend.
Higher Highs & Higher Lows is a definition of a up trend.
If you can see the above both happening then market is ranging.
If you are having a short bias on a particular instrument always look for a shorting opportunities in a lower time frame after confirming the phase of the market in a higher time frame.
Always wait for a confirmed trend don't try and jump in too early.
Let market decide the direction, don't force your self.
Risk Management is very important, Plan your trade with a proper risk that you can manage.
Trading is a marathon, if you try to sprint you will fall down and injure yourself.
Slow & steady wins the game :)
Thanks
⭐ HOPE AND FAITH💥 Am I the only who at some point while trading hoped for price to move in my direction or bias or rather open a position with mere hope and faith ❓... Certainly not. At one point or the other you must have done this and possibly still struggling with it.
💥Truth is, the market will always do whatever it wants regardless of your strong hold, hope or faith in your bias.
What then do I do ❓
1. Take trades that you've planned. Do not just wake up, get into the market and start executing trades without proper analysis. Take trades with predetermined entry, stop-loss and take profit level.
2. Be quick to admit that you're wrong when the market chooses to go against your bias. Stop adjusting your stop-loss when in a losing position. It will enable you cut the losses early.
3. Avoid trading based on emotions. It is easier said than done. But with practice you will get better at it. Be logical and see things as they are.
🔥 I HOPE this helps.
Sage Trader's Nugget
HOW-TO: A Step-By-Step Guide to Using The Profit Maxima StrategyThis strategy is suitable for position traders who hold their positions for months.
The goal is to determine the best entry and exit levels in order to achieve maximum profit with minimum risk.
Due to the bullish nature of the crypto market, trading in the “short” direction is avoided.
Step 1: Choose the best chart
Use the "Chart Quality" table to choose the appropriate chart.
The "Historical Bars" field displays the total number of candles in the chart.
The more historical price data is available, the more accurate the results will be; so choose the chart of an exchange that has the most historical bars.
The "Predictability" field indicates how reliable the results are.
The "Recommended Chart" field shows the suggested chart for some common symbols.
Step 2: Place your orders manually
Set your entry and exit orders at three different levels; for this, use the "Entry & Profit Limits" table.
As you can see, the Entry and Target levels are matched in pair.
Step 3: Be patient
As mentioned, this is a long-term strategy. In the long term, there are fluctuations, price corrections and so on.
So remember that patience is the key.
A brief explanation on the importance of risk managementEvery human activity has its ups and downs. You may face good days and bad days and it’s a norm in any other human kind activities.
Read history! Did all dynasties get consistently stronger?
In politics, did popularity rates of political figures get better day by day?
Sure not!
Even in natural events, you see uneven decreases and increases. Not only the annual rainfall rates are not always the same, but the rate of increases and decreases varies from year to year.
So strategies and setups won’t always work because they simply are man-made things to predict a human-based activity! They may fail, expire or disused someday, because this is the neutrality of nature and creatures including humans and their markets. For the last instance, even stars grow and fall.
I know there are some traders who claim their strategy will never expire. They may be liars, but they are not necessarily liars! Those who believe their strategy will never expire will admit that their strategy had bad days too. I like to say their strategy has expired and reactivated again and since they consider longer cycles (monthly, yearly or even bigger) they believe their setup has never expired. If we want to be more precise their strategy has expired but just for shorter periods (may be just for hours!).
Let me explain a little more technical, every setup is compatible with specific conditions of the market and they will fail in other markets’ conditions and traders are not foreteller but predictors, so they sometimes may get conditions have changed and sometimes they predict it wrong or get the change so late! So they sometimes make profit and sometimes don’t. For example RSI overbought and oversold strategy do not make profit in trending market on the side of the trend! I mean if markets are bullish, overbought is a norm not a sign of reversal (most peak of reversals happens in overbought or oversold but not every oversold is a sign of reversal in a trending market) and in a super bullish trending market you almost can’t find any RSI oversold. So you should use another setup! ( some traders using kind of strategy which has different setups for different conditions of market, they actually guess when their strategy is going to expire)
I divide the professional traders by methods that they choose to avoid using an unsuitable for market conditions into four general categories.
1- Ignorers: Since they got a conservative risk management strategy and they could easily ignore expiration phenomena and trade without worrying about expiration.
2- Rule makers: They have different setups for different conditions. They specify some rules to distinguish market conditions and adapt new setups to their trades. Rules could be created by using both indicators or indicator-free (price action) chars.
3- Sentimental Market traders (in case of expiration): Some traders do not use specific rules! They simply just sense market conditions has changed. They differ from rule makers because they don’t use a specific rules every time. They may use some rules unconsciously but those rules may differ time to time.
4- Equity curve analyzers. They simply analyze equity curve! They make specific rules to start using or stop using a strategy! For example they will stop using it if it is a loss-maker one for 2 weeks (this one won’t work in most strategies) or they simply try to use price action rules to analyze EC of a setup! “Mark Douglas (1990) is saying that if traders were to chart their equity, these charts would look very much like the typical bar charts and charts like these also can have the same predictive value as in the markets” “Procedia Economics and Finance 32 ( 2015 ) 50 – 55” these kind of traders may use indicators like SMA or WMA to predict profitability of a setup in future and they are also eager to use price action rules.
I believe no method is superior to another, the way an experienced trader use the method is important! But having a method to avoid large losses is necessary. And all traders consciously or unconsciously use one of them. Most price action traders are ignorers. Their strategy may expire but for short period of time. For example mine is expired right now but I’ll continue using it cause I know it’s temporarily and I don’t know when exactly it will reactive again. I also use a self-made auto-trading expert which use different indicator based setup and since the period of expirations of that setups are long, I use EC analyzing methods to detect expirations .
No matter which method you use, you can’t be an always winner trader! Ignorers may loss and they will name it exceptions. Rule makers’ rules may detect and signal expiration too soon or too late! The 3rd and 4th kind of traders may make mistakes too. There is no single trader in the world with 100% win rate in long-term!
That's why you need to limit our risks, I like optimism in life (I prefer pessimism in back-tests) but you should not be deluded, you should think what happen if you lost some consecutive trades?
If you risk more than you can handle consecutive losses emotionally, You will empty your trading account, no matter how good a teacher you had or how much you have practiced or how great trading past you have or how experienced you are or even how much you believe your emotions are in control of you
(you actually can’t control in real big loses trading), YOU NEED TO LIMIT YOUR RISK by managing it in a way that your trading is profitable enough and simultaneously do not be destructive at certain times
"Profit a little less but more consistent."
There are also too many other important rules for money and risk management and you should take them into consideration too.

A Brief Overview of My Market Approach Brief explanations
I form my narrative based on ICT concepts, I form my entries based on the free Phantom Trading content. My appraoch is based on my understanding of these concepts, which may not be objectively correct according to their teachmgs, but it's what works for me
Premise: M1 flow - Typically I look to trade M1 flow in line with M15 flow, but not always
HTF AOI: W to M5 - Since I trade on the M1, I consider anything M5 or higher to be a higher time frame
Markets: DXY, EURUSD, USDCHF - I choose EU and UF due to their correlations with the dollar index. EURUSD has the best inverse correlation, USDCHF has the best direct correlation of all the majors
Minimum Risk to Reward Ratio (RRR) 3.2 - This gives me around 3R and should about cover commissions.
LTF Confirmation entry method
Liquidation - price liquidates a level on the M1 (bonus for HTF liquidation)
Mitigation - price mitigates a HTF level, in the form of a return to supply/demand or a raid of liquidity
CHoCH - price changes character by breaking above supply in a downtrend or breaking below demand in an uptrend
SD/DS Flip (supply to demand, demand to supply) - in an uptrend, price reacts to a level of demand, fails to create a higher high, and breaks structure to the downside (DS Flip) ; in a downtrend, price reacts to a level of supply fails to create a lower low, and breaks market structure to the upside (SD Flip)
FVG (Fair value gap) - added confluence if there is unmitigated imbalance associated with the entry level
My favorite setups are just my favorite presentations of the setup, there are a number of other factors that can shape the setup. The important thing for me is that I pay attention to the narrative the pattern is telling me, instead of simply trading the pattern. Understanding the narrative behind the patterns adds edge to my discretion and often helps me stay out of less probable trades/trading areas.
I will be posting a video to youtube that includes an oral summary of what is presented here, I will post an update to the idea when the video is released (this coming Sunday, 2 Jan 2022).
My current hourly strategy.This is the strategy I've been using lately to trade FTM and ONE on the hourly chart.
1. Price is below 200 EMA.
2. ATR down trend.
3. Bollinger Band squeezed.
4. Price crossed below EMA ribbon.
5. WaveTrend Reversed down.
Over the past 50 trades, this strategy has won 33 times and lost 17 times.
I usually use 1:1.5 RRR but for this particular trade and others with the same congruence and strength I would go up to 1:2.
You may even consider taking 50% at 1:1.5 and 50% at 1:2.
Easy to get data from cnbc.com, it is freeIt is a note for developer
Sometime, we need stock data to write strategy checking logic by python. Data from cnbc.com is good and it is free. How to get it?
There are 2 steps to do:
Step 1: install library python
pip install cnbcfinance
Step 2: Get history or get quote realtime
# Get history data
from cnbcfinance import get_history_df
data = get_history_df('AAPL', '30m')
# Get quote
from cnbcfinance import get_history_df
data = get_quota('AAPL')
TAKE THAT NEXT TRADEHi Friends,
This post is for Educational Purpose only!!
Time Frames : 5 mins, 10 mins, 15 mins
Instruments : All Forex and Crypto Pairs
Market Session : All Sessions
Strategy Considered : Price Action Shift (PAS)
TAKE THAT NEXT TRADE
From my personal research i have seen that for a trending market, break of structure or shift in price action often leads to a big price movement moments later. Before i go into a trade, i normally ask myself a couple of questions;
1. How much is my balance?
2. How much do i want to risk?
3. Does the setup have a high winning probability?
4. Am i following my checklist? if yes, have i checked at least 4/6 of the items on the list?
5. What are my exit plans if i should take the trade?
If i am able to respond to Q3-Q5, then i will not miss that trades.
PAS Strategy Explained - Citing CADCHF (15m)
Price did not break first swing low, attempted to break the second one but failed. It eventually broke the third swing low then headed back to retest the order block that pushed price to that break. It makes sense to go in right at this point since 6/6 of my checklist have been ticked + Q3,Q4,& Q5 response is yes.
PAS Strategy give investors/ traders the opportunity to expose their capitals to low risks but highly profitable trade (in this case RRR of 1:8).
Take some time off to look at my checklist and the confluences which i have listed on the chart.

PRICE ACTION TRADING | RISING WEDGE PATTERN 🔰
Hey traders,
Rising wedge pattern is one of the most accurate price action patterns.
Being relatively simple to recognize, it is applied in various trading strategies.
⭐️The pattern itself signifies the exhaustion of bulls.
Even though the asset keeps growing in value, the price action legs contract forming a narrowing channel.
Being stuck between two contracting trend lines, one serving as support and one serving as resistance, the price forms a wedge pattern.
🔔The trigger that we are looking for to sell the market is a bearish breakout of the support of the wedge (candle close below).
To not be caught by a false breakout, it is highly recommendable to wait for a bearish violation of the last higher low level as well.
Only then the wedge breakout is confirmed.
⚡️Trading the market aggressively, one opens a short position on spot just after the candle closes.
⚡️The conservative trader will wait for a retest of the broken support of the wedge though for a safer entry.
✔️Safest stop will lie strictly above the highest wick within the wedge.
✔️Initial target will be based on the closest key structure support.
Learn to recognize this pattern and be disciplined to wait for its confirmed breakout. Only then a high trading performance will be achieved.
What price action pattern do you want to learn in the next post?
❤️Please, support this idea with like and comment!❤️
Simple Price Action Strategy – Easy Money! $$$$$Here is one of my favourite setups that is easy to learn and trade. I’ve heard it called many things over the years and know that many successful traders watch for this pattern to play out as it has a high win rate. Whatever you want to call it, it’s worth studying and adding to your playbook.
What’s actually happening in this pattern?
-A low is formed. Long entries have stops below the low providing a pocket of liquidity.
-As price returns to the area these stops are hunted and the liquidity is taken. Early breakout traders will short and become trapped. A base has now been formed.
-Price returns to the base and retests it as support.
-Price bounces back to swing high.
How do we trade it?
-The first thing we want to look for is a swing low (1) followed by a swing high (2). We can then mark out a potential range.
-Next, we want price to return to the swing low and either trade briefly below the range (a deviation) or just quickly wick below (sweeping the lows), and then price should return to the range. This area is shown as 3.
-Bids can now be placed at the range low. The setup is invalidated if price trades lower than 3, so stops should be somewhere under the low at 3.
-Targets should be set at the swing high (2).
-This also works for shorts – just flip everything upside down.
You can see this pattern on all timeframes and it presents a lot of opportunities once you know what to look for.
Happy Trading.

Improving Consistency In TradingThis is always one of the biggest challenges to becoming a full time profitable trader.
Almost all traders will have a battle against becoming consistent.
Its something that I definitely struggled with when starting out in my trading journey.
I would go through weeks of profitable trades and building my account and then equally go through losing streaks and essentially wiping out my wins. Or simply from one week to the next my trading results would fluctuate like crazy…
This will inevitably have a detrimental effect on your trading results but more importantly it will have a major negative effect on your mentality and well being as you become more and more frustrated with inconsistent trading results.
So today I wanted to sit down and go through this in topic to explain some ways to combat this problem and improve your consistency.
Expectations
Firstly its important to define the goal… what does consistent trading look like FOR YOU?
Because believe it or not, the answer to that question is different for different people.
So, are you looking to be consistent over the course of each day? Over the course of each week?… Define a time period that is realistic for you to determine your consistency and make sure it has enough time to measure enough trades to account for wins and losses.
Are you looking to be consistent in terms of profit over this period of time? Or are you looking to be consistent in terms of percentage of trades won and loss?
Secondly its important to know that you WONT win every trade.. so any goal that sets out to do so won’t be realistic and won’t be achievable.
Winning 80% of your trades is a VERY consistent win rate percentage.
No Silver Bullet
The honest truth is that there’s no secret formula or special sauce that will turn an inconsistent trader into a consistently profitable one overnight.
As with everything it will take gradual steps of improvement but I can share with you some methods and insights to help speed that process up.
Consistent Results Come From Consistent Processes
The main reason behind inconsistent results is that traders are using an inconsistent process for each trade they place.
If one trade is placed based on one strategy and then you are not using that same strategy on the next trade then you can expect any trading results will reflect that.
Its important to understand your strategy in trading intimately… you should have the confidence in your strategy that if you were to lose a trade, you are confident that over time your strategy will work out.
Typically this scattergun approach where traders jump from one strategy to the next is the main cause of why their results are inconsistent.
Review Your Strategy
Finally you must of course have a very robust strategy to use in the first place… if the strategy you are using isn’t robust and doesn’t provide an ‘edge’ on the market… if you haven’t done the research and backtesting necessary to know your edge on the market then you can be sure that any result from using that strategy will be inconsistent.
GANN Theory Finally Completed StrategyI took a couple of months off to read a book i found on Amazon on Andrew Gann the inventor of GANN theory. After finishing his article i theorized that it could be transformed in these modern times. This will a Membership to perform, Alerts mean allot to people that want to automate the thought process behind this. Please note that i am not a paid person posting this, i been trading for 16 years ever since i graduated from High School, I went to college to understand Pattern Recognition. Believe it or not there is a pattern to every aspect of our Lives.
I have the MTF Support and Resistance from Annan Set to Daily .
Poor Mans Volume Profile ___ this is critical for plotting the GANN BOX onto the Charts with little to no thought process.
To plot the GANN BOX (not the GANN fix Box or the GANN angles) You are taking the Gann Box Placing it on the Poor Mans Volume Profile DAILY chart. For an Uptrend you go UP 2 and right 2 , you'll understand when you plot it. For Down Trend down 2 right 2 . Sideways (rangebound) oddly special one. Up 1 Right 2 Down 1 Right 2 . When your plotting on the charts LOCK the Gann on the chart. I use Daily Right 2 because i set it at the beginning of the MONTH and its good for until the NEXT month. you set alerts on the GANN FIB LINES. (ENTRYS) BASED... If you are having issues with plotting this LET ME KNOW... its gets very automated when you plotting it. The Poor Mans Volume Profile takes the calculations out of the picture.
Posting a picture of the Points your going up or down 2.
How you Plot it on the Poor Mans Volume Profile. last step is to LOCK it on the Daily CHART.
Alerts need to the be set on the 2 of the Gann Lines. ( set to Crossing ) Subscription premium allow you to set an unexpired alert. If you want to Swing with this strategy. You have to do something different by Anchoring on the Weekly and trading on the 30 min or 1hr you can swing with this. But as yourself are you going to swing or are you going to Day-trade this.
Stop loss is a very touchie subject that everyone should think about doing... Personally i use 4 different methods Count 5 bars back, last Swing point, or Halfway between the two fibs of entry. if i am feeling lucky just on the other side of the Fib Entry point. * the Lucky part of this one is if it goes bad you have a very LOW LOW risk of loosing allot of hard earned capital. Generally I will use the 5 bars back method.
CM- Slingshot set to Conservative.
Next 2 will be the Exits on the Trades and Indicators to take the Trade.
DYNAMIC RSI - DRSI for short just tweak the color on this one, from DreadBlitz. ____
MTF RSI from Chris Moody 14 70 30 D D 30 ___ set a color where you can see the MidPoint.
NOTE: When Entering you are looking at the Chart___ when it crosses the GANN FIB line. after the Bar completes, look at the DRSI and MTF RSI midpoint cross. (after the Cross has Happen and you can Confirm it on both u can now Enter the Trade.)
The exit point is when the DRSI goes Solid Filled color, secondly this effect will be happening on the MTF RSI.
I take all of my trades on the 15min timeframe with an Anchor on the Daily Chart. Anchor meaning MTF MTF MTF MTF all of them are set to the daily. I want to make thoughtful readings based on the Daily Overall proceedings of the market direction.

The logic of "sell half keep half" (Forex)Both holding & not holding don't make sense.
Definitions:
- Holding = try to hit "homeruns" every time
- Not holding = snatching profits at target (not before, that's just being a huge noob)
Assume winners 5 times bigger than losers on average: 5R.
And the winrate is of 20%. So that's a PF of 1.25, all good.
To keep it simple there is no trailing until target.
Risking 0.5% per trade you'll never be down more than 10%.
Once at target if you move the stop to 1R (-4),
12% of the time the price will go to 45R.
So risk 4 to make 40, or 1 to make 10.
With a winrate of 12%. PF = 1.36.
But if you do hold and trail well...
12% of 20% is 2.4% of total.
80% will be losers (-1R),
17.6% will be +1R,
and only 2.4% will be (huge) winners.
In other words:
Risking 0.5% per trade, by the time you get that big winner (+22.5%)
you will be down 15, 25, maybe 50% on a bad luck streak, or more.
22.5% is just enough to get to breakeven after an 18% drawdown.
Compared to just lose 4 times (down to 98%) then win once 2.5% (up to 100.45%)
Even after a 10% drawdown (an unlucky >20 losses in a row) get a few 5R's and you quickly get back to zero.
Holding just makes little sense, and there is no margin for error.
But at the same time it's stupid to ignore these big wins.
So here is the solution:
Sell half, keep half. (Or any other fraction).
Selling half at target allows to smooth the returns.
If they are too volatile it just won't work out.
And keeping half first with a wide stop then maybe not as much, allows to catch the "big ones".
This makes most sense even if "on paper" some will say "oh well you should go for the big ones if the odds are in your favor" lol sorry but it's a bit more complicated than this.
More generally with Forex I think that any risk to reward under 1 to 2 is bad as is anything above 1 to 10.
Can aim for the moon, but not all the time. The "sell half keep half" concept is the best compromise.
Adding to winner at some point is too dangerous, it doesn't work, it's just greed.
Adding to winners is another subject entirely and anyway there is nothing as a "just do this".
It all must be researched and well thought.
With this sell half concept you're securing 2.5 + 1.25 = 3.75 / 5R so that's 75% of the profit.
Then risking 25% of profit to catch some of these massive winners is I think the smart move here.
Profit is secured, to push this a bit further you might have thought of this already:
secure enough profit to breakeven (on 20% winrate secure 4/5 R) and "go double or nothing" on the extra (1R).
So it's as if in a way these big winners are "free".
Risking 1R with 50% retracement means you're leaving 2R in or 2/5 = 40%. Pretty good.
And then the account I showed turns to this:
Isn't this the best? Sure you'll "only" be in the huge wins with maybe 1/3 of the normal size but it's how it is.
This is not gambling. Really, there is no other choice in my opinion.
Sort of go nowhere for a while, then boom get a big winner, account jumps up, then go nowhere for a while, etc.
The risk all "double or nothing" is actually stupid even if "on paper" you are risking less than you stand to make.
And constantly closing at target is just bad and leaving some profit on the table.
This does not apply to stocks (sometimes it does, probably).
To be honest with stocks you're better off holding everything and getting these zigzags and all so you always have (balanced out) losses ready to be declared, and the huge winners never ever getting closed.

The Breakthrough StrategyGreetings, traders! Welcome to this short, 7-step strategy lesson.
Are you new to trading? Don't worry: we're dedicated toward providing the most high-quality, easy-to-understand, and straight-to-the-point investing education to the TradingView community. This strategy lesson is beginner-friendly (we have pictures!), as we've inserted helpful links into each and every term, just in case you don't know them yet. Anyways, let's get right into the steps of this effective trading method , which we've named " The Breakthrough Strategy ":
• STEP 1, The Breakthrough:
Identify a breakout (or "breakthrough") at the most recent Support/Resistance (S&R) zone. With the horizontal line tool, if you haven't already, mark the level at which price broke: this will be your potential Entry Point (EP).
• STEP 2, The Turnaround:
Immediately following the breakout, you'll wanna see two or more consecutive candlesticks, going in the same direction of the breakout. After the streak, when you spot the first completely-formed candle, going in the opposite direction, you've found your "turnaround" point! Mark it up with a S&R line: this will be your potential Take Profit (TP) level.
• STEP 3, The Other Side:
Now, identify the most recent S&R zone, on the opposite side of the breakout zone: this will be your potential Stop Loss (SL) level.
• STEP 4, The Average:
Make sure that you have your Exponential Moving Average (EMA, 50) installed on TradingView. Is the end of it between the EP and the SL? Perfect! You're ready for the next step.
• STEP 5, The Order:
Place a Limit Order (TP, SL, and EP levels are mentioned in the previous steps). If, before price hits the Entry Point, things start to get choppy, close the pending order: it is now invalid.
• STEP 6, The Execution:
Did price hit your Entry Point? The order has been triggered —we're in! Good job, good luck, and hope for some profits.
