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.

Educational: Two ways to take from the marketsOf course there are many ways to take chunks out of the markets. Hundreds of methodologies are out there. And the markets are experts at taking chunks out of you and your account. In the 4.5 min video I briefly show two types of 'attacks' on the market: 1 - Strategic 2 - Tactical . Strategic In the strategic approach (which could be any methodology), you plan very carefully over days. You're a 'sniper', hunkering down in the bush - you make very few movements - you're watching the enemy and waiting for best conditions and opportunity. You suffer sleepless nights. You suffer cold wind, rain, snow, muddy rivers, insects biting you. (These are the scenes from the movies and in realty that are well known - I'm NOT promoting violence or war). And despite all that, you endure. When it's right, you fire one shot! Your 'kill rate' is so good, that one shot is all you need. So the above analogy in market terms, is similar - waiting planning, suffering, and watching those charts, for that one high precision trade. Tactical Right - in this scenario you're at the frontlines doing hand to hand battle with the enemy. You are loaded with armaments, and you use whatever you need. Look - frontline battle is battle - nothing nice about it. In market terms, this is where you get down and dirty - that's why it's called scalping! In scalping you're making short term moves. You're not planning an attack - you're attacking. The enemy - the market - is there to take your heart out (aka your account)! It's either you want to be in that sort of battle or not. But if you're there, you have to have the right knowledge, skills and experience - else you'll be taken out. Making the money The money-making is not in the methodology - it is all about you! If your 'knife' doesn't work well, you're to blame. Don't blame the charts or the tools you use. Can you be both a strategist and a scalper? Of course you can. There is no law saying that a trader can't be both. Conclusion As a knife when used carefully can create good things, using it the wrong way can be dangerous to your safety or that of others. How you use the tool, is a matter of skill and experience. Are you fit enough? Do you have the right knowledge, skill and experience? Avoid the Dunnnng-Kruger effect as applied to traders (for reading about on the net). Disclaimer: This is not advice or encouragement to trade securities or any asset class.

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.
