How to Become a Profitable Trader in 2025
FULL TRANSCRIPT
so you want to become a profitable
Trader well fortunately for you I've
turned thousands of people into
consistent winners so I know exactly
what you need to do and in this video
I'm going to show you how to become a
winner as well we're going to look at
what you're doing wrong how to fix your
problems the right way to view and
approach trading and a simple four-step
process that you can use over the next
12 months to become a profitable Trader
we're going to dive straight into it by
starting out looking at what Traders do
wrong and by far the biggest problem
that I see among traders who are
learning and aspiring to be successful
is that they simply don't know what real
trading looks like and look I don't
blame you you watch videos like this on
social media making outlandish claims
completely unsustainable or entirely
madeup ways of trading that simply don't
happen and don't work in reality and
this is how you build your perception of
trading and you start to see trading as
this crazy money flipping method where
you can turn almost nothing into massive
amounts of money you watch people
flexing Lifestyles and making it look in
inedibly easy and you follow what they
say CU you think they are successful but
I want to put it this way there's a lot
of money in teaching in any area and I
know there isn't trading cuz I make a
fair amount of money teaching myself but
these insane claims that mentors make on
YouTube help the people that are making
them to sell more programs if someone
tells you they can turn $100 into a
million and they show you proof well
then you're going to buy their program
cuz you think you'll be able to do the
same the more wild claims that someone
makes the more supercars and diamond
watches they can by cuz the more people
are going to give them 2,000 5,000 or
whatever it is to learn their secret
strategy that's going to turn them into
a millionaire and because the people
doing this are so caught up in the money
and the lifestyle they're so addicted to
it they give you these insane claims
even if it's to your detriment which it
entirely is it ruins your perception of
trading from day one it fills your mind
with unrealistic unattainable ideas that
these people pretended they did
themselves and it messes you up from the
very beginning and I know some people
are probably thinking but it's real you
can flip $100 to a million because I saw
it the videos Prove it's real but let's
put it this way right if we look at the
mathematics this is a
999,9 per return if you did this just
two more times which why wouldn't you if
you can do it once you would have $1
trillion that's one tenth of all the
money digital and physical circulating
in the entire world and it will make you
300,000 times richer than Elon Musk when
you look at this math you realize how
obviously fake and made up this stuff is
and there's probably someone saying oh
but liquidity issues mean you can't do
it again 100 to a million's okay but
anything past that and you run into
liquidity issues look if you want to
live in that dream world carry on just
click off this video go watch a video of
someone driving around in a car and
doing some shopping and pretend that
you're doing some work if you want to
argue against the reality then that is
on you but if you are ready to learn the
real way to trade then stick around now
not everyone is caught in this trap of
social media right even if you
understand that all of that stupid
marketing is complete you still
have a problem and that is that you
don't understand what it is that you
need to do to win because you aren't
sure what you should be doing your focus
is spent on the charts you are married
to the charts trying to force setups to
get some excitement or just get into a
trade and try and make some money for
the day this feels productive in the
moment because you don't have clear
direction as to what you should be doing
instead so you don't study properly you
don't operate with a real strategy and
you trade based purely on hope that your
next trade will work out and you'll make
a few dollars or a few hundred today
realistically whether you make that
money today or not it makes no
difference two or 5 years down the line
you're still going to be in the same
position if you spend all your time just
taking active trades without every other
important element there is no method to
the madness so to put it bluntly you're
misguided and you're lost but it's not
your fault and it can be fixed when you
learn about the real way to trade all of
this falls into place you'll realize
that you've been wasting your time but
you'll have a clear set path as to what
to do next and that is what we're
covering in this class so now let's talk
about what you need to do to stop losing
first things first just stop watching
those videos if you're watching
a video of someone doing some shopping
buying a bag driving a car whatever it
might be showing off watches all this
stuff it's not trading right think about
it realistically you're just watching a
reality TV show you're following
someone's life you're not actually
learning to trade you're not learning a
skill you're not furthering your
abilities you're not progressing in any
way because you're not watching
education you're watching some lifestyle
because it makes you feel good it gives
you a hit of dopamine and it feels
motivating in the moment but it's
actually completely counterproductive so
stop watching all these stupid videos
focus on these boring old educational
videos like the ones I make instead yes
it's not as exciting but at least it's
going to give you some skills that you
can go and further your career with
number two stop trying to flip tiny
accounts okay you don't need to turn
$100 into a million nor will you
actually achieve turning $100 into a
million what's going to happen instead
is you're going to turn your $100 into a
few hundred maybe maybe even a couple of
thousand then you're going to lose it
all and you're going to have no money so
don't waste your time with this stuff
number three you want to commit to doing
the actual hard work that is required to
become a winning Trader and what this
hard work is we will cover soon okay and
exactly what this hard work is we will
cover soon in this video and number four
you want to stop chasing shortcuts this
holds everyone back and it is the main
reason why almost every single beginner
fails and quits before they ever reach
success so what do I mean by shortcuts
then well we mean things like holy grail
strategies searching for this Holy Grail
that's going to give you 90% win rates
and make you win every trade things like
that number two trying to flip money for
giant fast returns so turning your tiny
money into big money number three
investment schemes copy trading and
number four signals so let's break down
each one of these why they're bad and
why you need to eliminate this from your
focus when you're trying to learn to
trade number one then the Holy Grail
strategy there isn't a magic pill
trading is not about holy Grails there's
no strategy that's going to make you win
every trade and searching for it is a
fruitless Endeavor the real Holy Grail
in trading is getting your perception
right like you are right now and
understanding that you only need to win
40 to 50% of the trade you take with a
positive return on the winners that you
take that understanding of the
probabilities actually becomes the Holy
Grail but it's not some special strategy
it's going to make you win all the time
the Holy Grail forms inside of your mind
and will be fully developed by the end
of this class so searching for the Holy
Grail strategy is a complete waste of
time and money you're not going to find
it it's nowhere out there to be found so
flip it accounts now as I said this is
unsustainable don't believe for a minute
that someone turned $100 into a million
yes you could turn 10 into a th000 yes
you could turn 100 into 10,000 if you
get lucky enough but the problem here is
and the reason that you can't scale that
same result all the way to a million and
Beyond is because it's completely
unsustainable right to do these kind of
numbers in order to turn a tiny amount
into a very large amount you have to be
trading with massively exacerbated risk
and leverage which means you are
basically one or at most two trades away
from losing all of the money in your
account so for example one time in 1
hour I turned $100 into just over $1,000
but guess what happened the next day I
lost it all cuz I was overleveraged and
as soon as you inevitably hit one or two
losing trades all the money's gone it
doesn't matter if you made $1,000
yesterday if you've now got no money
left it's all gone including the
principal it is a complete waste of time
and money investment schemes don't get
me started on investment schemes people
saying they will triple your money in 3
days with 100% guarantee stuff like this
only beginners fool for this but it's
all complete investment schemes
are
99.999% of the time complete scams you
will literally just get robbed making it
a complete waste of time and money so I
want to just quickly explain how these
work here's a Channel with my name and
my picture and this person is offering
crypto current Investments whatever they
may be they're pretending to be me
basically then my audience trusts me so
they go into this group they think this
is me they give money to this person
thinking they're going to get some crazy
returns doesn't happen they get robbed
so if you're trying to shortcut by going
for Investments that are going to double
or triple your money with 100% guarantee
it's all a lie it's all a scam they're
impersonators that do this they do it
for pretty much everyone with a
following in the trading space don't
fall for this stuff okay investment
schemes they're all scams copy trading
is often the same and even if you do
find a legit copy trading platform
you're going to spend more time money
then it actually returns which means
it's a waste of time and money it's also
going to kill your focus and attention
and draw you away from learning for
yourself so don't do this and signals I
hate signals it's near impossible to win
with them most people selling them suck
at trading all together and even if the
person offering the signals is
profitable you won't be because of
variables imagine they take two losing
trades and one winning trade and that
one winning trade wins way more than the
losses and is a profitable week but what
if you're asleep when the the profitable
trade goes out what if you're in a
meeting at work you've missed it now
you've got two losses whereas they're
having a profitable week you're losing
so variables make signals incredibly
difficult to win with longterm it's
pretty much gambling at that point and
once again they draw away your focus and
create dependency on the trader that is
providing them to you so don't waste
your time with these as you can see all
of those shortcuts have one thing in
common and that is that they are all a
waste of time and money don't put your
focus into these go the hard route
instead they burn your trading accounts
to the ground they steal all of your
focus and attention and they get you
locked in what I call the cycle of Doom
so here's how it goes you find a new
shortcut you found a new signal provider
a new investment scheme a new strategy
on YouTube you're all excited you think
it's going to be great you think you're
going to make a lot of money doing this
this is your key to successful trading
you waste a bunch of time on it maybe a
few weeks maybe a few months you put
time energy Focus money into this and
then you start to realize this is not
going to work you lose the money all the
time's gone you're not getting it back
and then you give up eventually and you
fall back to step one where you find a
new shortcut which you think is going to
solve the problems that you've faced so
far this is where you're living right
now and this is why trading feels so
frustrating and impossible so think of
it like this how many times have you
joined a new signal group watched a new
mentor on YouTube tried a different
strategy bought a new course but you're
still not profitable that's because
you're stuck in this cycle where you
jump from something to to something new
it doesn't work and then you jump around
again and you just continue going around
in this hamster wheel of losses
Financial losses time losses and create
massive frustration and stress for
yourself if you want to win and really
get serious with trading you need to put
an end to all of the timeconsuming money
burning nonsense that you've been stuck
on for however many months or years it
is that you've been trading and it
starts with shaping your perception so
what if I told you that you don't need
huge 50% winning months you don't need
to flip accounts all the time you don't
need any of these crazy shortcuts to win
in in fact all you actually need to win
in trading and this is going to shock
you is a strategy that will consistently
provide 2 to 5% per month to you now
More's better of course 5% to 7% 8% 9%
10% whatever but if you could make 2%
per month now most people could do that
right if you had the right system to
allow it you can make thousands tens of
thousands of dollars per year from your
trading and I know you probably think 2
to 5% is insanely low because of what
you've been taught online but let's put
it this way it's not 90% of Traders make
nothing which means you are in the top
10% simply by making even 1% or 0.5% per
month if you take a look at what some of
the greatest traders in history have
said throughout books like Market
Wizards and interviews these guys make
between 2 to 5% per month generally
never anymore now yes they are trading
with larger Capital they're trading in
Risk averse ways but why can't you trade
large Capital why can't you trade in
Risk adverse ways as well because 2 to
5% if you have an account size of
$200,000
is $4,000 to $10,000 per month that's
upwards of 50 to more than $100,000 a
year from your trading with what you
might see as measly returns but these
small consistent percentage returns turn
into large quantities of money directly
in your pocket I know you might think I
don't have $200,000 how am I going to
trade with that but Capital comes easy
nowadays and it comes as a byproduct of
successfully applying a good trading
system if you've got a system that
performs well and you apply it well so
you're trading well Capital will come to
you we have companies called prop firms
nowadays they'll give you $1 100,000 to
a million dollars to trade with and you
get to keep 70 to 90% of the profit you
make all you have to do is prove that
you are consistently profitable and if
you have a good system this will happen
as a byproduct so even if you've only
got $300 to your name today there's no
reason that you couldn't be trading
$100,000 next year and I don't want to
bore you with this but just to show you
that it's actually possible here's just
a bunch of traders that I've taught who
are doing some pretty crazy numbers
$10,000 per month or more with funded
capital and this all comes just as a
byproduct of building and applying a
good trading system that's a hell of a
lot of money to come in from Trading
without any of these stupid shortcuts or
account flips or signals or anything of
the like so what I'm about to show you
is going to change the game for you as a
Trader I'm going to take you deep into
how successful trading looks so what we
have here is pretty much the blueprint
of becoming a profitable Trader we take
the very base elements like technical
analysis risk management and mindset and
psychology and turn these into something
that will create lasting success I'm
going to take you through this from
start to finish so that you can see how
we build upon each point so even as a
complete beginner in trading it's likely
that you've heard the terms technical
analysis risk management and mindset
technical analysis refers to anything
related to charts this is what most
people are interested in it's probably
the most enjoyable and exciting part of
the trading Journey risk management
refers pretty much to money how we
handle our money and how we balance the
profits and losses from the wins and
losses that we take and mindset and
psychology refers to pretty much
anything mental or emotional focused
right now these are generally covered on
a very surface level way when you look
at videos on YouTube or free courses
like baby Pips they say manage your risk
keep your mindset in check but they
don't really talk about how right and if
we want to succeed we do need to go a
little bit deeper so starting with
technical analysis if we jump into this
you can see that We have basically
subtopics inside of the larger topic so
I've covered things like top down
analysis it's just a way of collecting
more information so this is a trading
style where you would use high time
frame then medium time frame then low
time frame like using the daily into the
4our and then into the 1 hour to find
trades as you can see this gives you
more information than simply trading one
time frame so incorporating things like
this into your trading is one of the big
steps towards collecting more info doing
better analysis and winning more trades
now the second thing I covered here is
technical Concepts basically I believe
you can win at trading with pretty much
any approach right you could even win
with a indicator combo strategy if you
tried hard enough although I don't think
it matters what technical Concepts you
trade with I do think you need to be
clear with the elements that you are
indeed going to trade if you're going to
trade support and resistance then trade
it if you're going to trade supply and
demand then trade it if you're going to
trade trend lines or indicators then
just trade it what you can't be doing is
trading support and resistance today and
then supply and demand tomorrow because
that shows that you clearly have no
system and what you're doing is pretty
much just gambling into each setup
remember before I said you're trading on
hope well that is exactly what happens
when you're mismatching these Concepts
right if one day you've got a trend line
set up the next day you've got a supply
and demand or SMC set up basically your
problem is that you are unorganized and
means you can't make your trading
repeatable if you can't make your
trading repeatable well then we can't
bring all of these elements and turn
them into this right which is what we
need to do in order to succeed so
whatever technical Concepts it is that
you're going to trade just make sure you
stick to it consistently and then the
final thing I wanted to cover here is
trade management this is pretty much how
you nurture a trade when you were in it
so we need to think about things like
take profits where they're going to go
and stop losses and what you're going to
do with these as well because maybe in
your system you could move your stop
loss to break even when a trade is
running in profit that might be a
profitable thing for you to do if you
tested it over the long term but a lot
of people don't even consider this stuff
right the management because it's not as
exciting we just want to get into trade
right that's the exciting part but
really the money is made and actually
looking after the trade when we've taken
it so trade management is actually
incredibly important now as I've just
covered you can see that when we go
through these different ways of
improving our trading the main goal is
to make it repeatable and turn it into a
system right we want to make sure that
we are following the same rules pretty
much for every single trade we take
right there could be slight deviations
in analysis but it's always going to be
the same Concepts we're always going to
make sure to get the most information
that we can and we're always going to
make sure that we have a solid
management process so when we get into a
trade we can get out of it profitably in
the future when that time comes and we
pretty much have the same goal when we
move on to risk management we want to
systemize things here so the first thing
to cover is risk to reward if you don't
know what this is this is the best way
to trade for long-term success in my
opinion so risk to reward is class as a
ratio so your risk to reward here for
example would be this 1 to three this
means our risk is one our reward is
three which basically means every time
we risk $1 we are trying to return $3 if
the trade wins this allows us to win
even if we only win half the trades we
take right so so that means we can be
wrong half the time and we can still
make a considerable amount of money let
me show you an example if we had a 1:3
risk reward ratio and we won only 40% of
the trades that we took so 40% win rate
1 to three let's say we take 100 trades
60
lose 40
win on the 60 that we lose we are going
to lose 60% so now we have- 60% but on
the 40 that we win because we've got a
1:3 going on we're actually going to win
120% right so we have 40 * 3 and then 60
* 1 so now we have 120% minus 60% which
is going to generate an overall return
of 60% over 100 trades which means
average of
0.6% profit per trade right which means
every time we take a trade we are
basically making 0.6% whether it wins or
whether it loses right this average is
out to create this 0.6% profit per trade
which is an awesome thing to know
because if you can just consistently do
this well now you don't even have to be
right half of the time right you can be
right only 40% of the time and you still
going to make 60% every time you take
100 trades let's say you take 100 trades
over the span of a year let's say 60%
return over the year which is around 5%
per month a very healthy profit and
something to be very happy with so you
can see the next thing I noted on the
risk management section is just an
understanding of the probabilities I've
just showed you those probabilities so
it's just a consideration of this the
other thing to consider is that you can
remove your ego from Trading now this
also kind of directly correlates into
some of the mindset based stuff
basically you don't need to be worried
about being right and stroking your ego
if you know you can win even when you're
wrong okay so just understanding these
it's going to be related to the risk
reward the win rates and then of course
ego related things as we've just said
right get these things right and you
will do a lot better and as I say this
does pretty much link into psychology as
well now the final note I've got from
risk management is risk per trade so we
want to make sure we are risking the
same amount on every trade we take I
like 1% you could do at the very highest
push 2% but you could also do and I
quite like this one as well say you've
got a funded account 0.5% that's going
to keep your Capital safe now the main
rule with your RIS for trade is just to
make sure regardless of what you choose
you keep it the same right cuz let's say
we go back to that 40% win rate example
but we were mismatching our lot sizes
right we have 60% of losses but let's
say they were all at 2% well that would
be minus 120% right if we also had 2% on
the 40% of winners so we were making 6%
per trade well now we would actually
make 240% across 40% of winners but
let's say the 40% was actually at 1%
risk say we we got unlucky all of our
losses were the big size ones all of our
wins were just 1% wins well now we've
got 1% time 3 so we have 120 here so
we've basically got 40 trades out of 100
times three because they are 1 to three
trade we have 120% return but we have 60
losses at 2% so we have 120% loss so now
we've done an entire year of trading and
we make
z% obviously not great right so this is
why you need to keep the risk per trade
the same either choose the 1% or choose
the 2% or choose the 5% but don't go on
a case-by Case basis your risk per trade
must remain the same for every single
trade that you take okay so what we've
just covered here has once again turned
into a system so now we've got a system
for our technical analysis we have a
system for our risk to reward and we'll
just briefly cover mindset and
psychology this is going to cover things
like understanding that probability and
ego also just remaining patient and
waiting for trades that are good staying
disciplined enough to follow these
systems that you've created here for
risk control and of course for
technicals and then keeping a long-term
focus is just about keeping your eyes on
the bigger picture right we want to make
sure we are looking over a 2 3 four 5
years span not just looking at making a
couple hundred today because that is not
going to help us in the long term so
everything that I've just showed you
comes together to create a system this
is a repeatable plan that will cover a
bunch of different aspects we've got
here mental factors our risk Control
Systems our analysis process the entry
criteria we use to get into trades the
trade management process the back
testing process the journaling process
the Capital management process so
obviously we know what these are what
these are what these are what these are
and what these are we've also got some
extra elements this is how we validate
uh trading this is going to become very
relevant soon when I get into that
four-step process the journaling process
is how we improve so back testing is
where we trade in a simulation right we
use a software that will allow us to
test our systems out in real time using
past price data there is no risk here
but we can collect a lot of information
and also build our trading experience as
well even though we're not trading live
we get to look at hundreds of different
hours and days worth of chart price
action to understand how the market
moves journaling is where we track the
trades that we take and then we Rev them
and when we review the trades that we've
taken in the past we get to see areas of
improvement we get to see areas where
there will be lots of losses right and
then we can try and eliminate the
reasons for the losses now this all
together will create your base trading
success but we need to create lasting
success so pretty much everything that
we've covered in this area is going to
be crossed over and continued onwards so
we will continue to do back testing we
will continue to do our Journal reviews
to make incremental improvements we will
make sure that any money we make we are
making smart use of it so we are going
to try and scale this Capital we're
going to save and we're going to invest
this Capital to make sure that aside
from Trading we have some money some
wealth right you don't just want to
gamble it all in trading it's one way to
make money of many there are better ways
to preserve wealth and this is where
that smart use of capital is going to
come in obviously I also believe you
should continue studying you don't have
to continue studying of the people's
work when you're profitable I don't do
that now but I do study when my own work
I do study my own charts my own back
testing my own results anything that I
can to give me a further Edge or uh
reverse engineer things in the markets
to try and understand how things are
changing and how we can continue to
improve based on study and then the
final thing is just accountability so be
real with yourself and stay focused okay
that's pretty much it and if you do all
of these things you are going to create
that lasting success that we've talked
about so following on from that
blueprint that we've covered you're
probably now starting to see the key to
successful trading is through
systemization allowing your strategies
and systems to do the heavy LIF thing
for you to balance the profits and
losses that you are inevitably going to
take an understanding of the importance
of trading systems and strategies along
with an understanding of the math behind
successful trading is exactly what you
need to start making massive strides in
the right direction towards your
progression you will never become a
consistently profitable Trader without a
trading plan you need one I'm going to
help you set one up so we are going to
look look at what a trading plan is what
a good plan includes a trading plan that
you can use so we're going to test one
together in real time how to test your
plan it's going to be weaved into that
and how to validate your plan so that
you know it is profitable so first
things first what is a trading plan well
a trading plan is simply a systemized
list of rules that surrounds your
analysis and your risk management turns
it into a process that you can
continually repeat every time you come
to the markets and a successful trading
plan is going to cover Three core
elements primarily first of all is our
analysis methods what kind of
macroeconomic or technical Concepts will
you be using in your day-to-day trading
and what will that look like such as
top- down analysis different entry
criterias the actual Concepts you'll use
whether that's trend lines support and
resistance supply and demand woff
whatever it may be and the analysis
needs to cover everything from the very
beginning all the way through to your
management technique so will you go stop
loss to break even will the trades be
set and forget whatever it may be it all
needs to be covered once your analysis
is covered you then need to look at risk
management you need to try and build a
process once again systemizing your risk
control methods so this is going to
include things like what kind of risk
reward profiles are you going to look
for risk reward for those who don't know
is simply how much are you going to risk
to return how much so for every $1 you
risk you probably want to aim for $2 or
more in returns so you've got positive
risk to reward you pretty much need to
build in a minimum risk reward that
you're going to focus for if you do that
then your system Edge becomes a lot
clearer if you're going for a 1 to one
one day A 1 to2 the next day and then a
1 to 0.5 your system's going to be kind
of all over the place you need to put a
minimum in place I recommend two we'll
look at that in just a moment though
what does the win rate need to be and
what kind of win rates is your system
through testing going to achieve now
I'll show you how we can kind of work
this information out and we're going to
go through from start to finish of
building a plan testing it and then
having a look at the results that it
forms how will you manage your stoploss
orders we kind of brought this in on the
analysis method when it comes down to
trade management pretty much in a
nutshell just get every risk management
concept that you need risk reward win
rates trade management risk per trade
all of that stuff try and systemize it
as much as possible alongside analysis
the next thing then is just rules
additional rules that you put in place
things like loss and profit limits if
you lose x amount per week you'll stop
trading if you make x amount per week or
month you'll also stop trading to make
sure you lock that profit in and don't
just go and risk it all and lose it all
again how many trades per day how many
trades per week will you allow your
system to take you don't want to be
taking 10 or 15 trades a day most
Traders will absolutely not want to be
doing that and will lose money by doing
that but some Traders do so building
that into your plan say you can only
take one trade per day well now you know
you're going to take the best trade that
that Day offers you're not just going to
be firing off at every random position
so other guidelines as well fall into
place here we'll take a look at some of
these in just one moment with these
elements of a successful trading plan in
your mind now we're going to go over to
notion an fx replay which is a back
testing platform I'm going to teach you
a simple trading plan we're going to
take a look at building one together
then we're going to get into trading on
the charts and we'll see how it goes
then we'll take a look at the analytics
so let's get to it all right so here
we've got a base trading plan that we're
going to look at today and we're going
to back test that on FX replay which is
a back testing software so the trading
plan we're covering the risk guidelines
and the analysis processes as we've just
mentioned and this is what we're going
to be working with initially so our risk
per trade is going to be 1% that's going
to be static fixed at 1% for every
single trade we take otherwise we get
that problem covered actually in the
first class right so we want to make
sure we stick to 1% we don't want to use
Dynamic we don't want to be using 0.5%
today 1% tomorrow 2% the day after and
Ain 1% is a nice Central Baseline loss
and profit limits I have set two trades
per week as our loss limit so if we lose
2% in a week we will stop trading we're
not actually going to see that because
we're going to be trading higher time
frames but this would become viable when
you're trading multiple assets at the
same time right we're just testing UJ
today profit limit is going to be 8% for
the month so if we make 8% we will stop
trading that way we lock in the profits
that we've made and we don't risk giving
it back minimum risk reward it's going
to be a 1 to two so we will only get
into a trade if we have the possibility
to risk $1 to make $2 or more in returns
right we won't risk $1 to make $1 it's
got to be a one to two or we will not
get into the trade when it comes to our
analysis process we are going to stick
to primarily the one-day time frame now
you might want to use top down analysis
where you go from the weekly to the
Daily to the 4 Hour to the 1 hour to
whatever in your own personal trading
but for this class we are going to stick
to the Daily because I want to keep
things simple and explain these ideas to
you as opposed to getting really deep
into a strategy so one day time frame is
what we're going to use we will leave
open the potential to refine to the
4-Hour time frame if it looks like we
need to do that so for example if we're
looking for a daily area to get in it's
not very clear we go to the 4H hour at
minimum to then identify that
opportunity and our actual step-by-step
process will be first of all identifying
the trend so are be going up or down
then we're going to look for supply and
demand zones in line with the trend
that's where we're going to enter from
we're going to enter with buy or sell
limits buy limits on demand sell limits
on Supply when we rent trades we're
going to set and forget them meaning
we're not going to alter stops we're not
going to go break even we're not going
to do stop trailing we're not going to
do partial taking we are going to enter
and then the trade gets stopped out for
a loss or hit the take profit for a
return when we're actually looking for
our targets for our trades where to put
our take profits we're going to use open
supply and demand and if that fails if
we can't find a clear open Supply or
demand Zone to Target we'll then move on
to using next swing highs okay or swing
lows that is going to be not as great so
that would knock down the confidence
scale of trades or the quality of the
trade a little bit not because it makes
it any more likely to lose but because
it's kind of the second best to using
open supply and demand and basically
we're not going to be able to extend the
targets as far targeting swing highs and
swing lows as we would if we were just
targeting supply and demand but that is
the secondary cuz obviously sometimes
you do need to compromise so going over
to the actual chart then we got our plan
in mind we're now going to start testing
we're going to do 6 months up to around
the start of July I set this simulation
to end so we're starting on the 1st of
January uh and what we want to do first
of all obviously daily time frame that's
where we are is identify the trend we
want to make sure the Market's either
going up or down so from the very low of
the trend here we've started to see
breaks in structure the these breaks in
structure indicate that the market is
indeed moving up they are forming higher
highs right Market that's forming higher
highs and higher lows is up trending
taking a look at the significant
pullback points then this is a higher
low we have another higher low here and
then of course we just have the low of
the trend here so the actual trending
fashion of this Market starts pretty
much come down to this point we have
this
low higher high higher low higher high
high higher low higher high right that's
what the trend looks like uh pretty much
from where we are right now we can kind
of pull from this that we are in an
uptrend Because unless the market breaks
into this low it's going to continue
forming higher highs and higher lows
right so we are in an uptrending Market
where realistically we then want to be
looking for buys generally what we'd
want to do to kind of increase the
probability of winning trades would be
to kind of wait for some of these
smaller daily structure here to break so
for example if we were to see the market
come and close over this uh lower high
that would then shift the daily here so
this daily Trend into an uptrend
alongside the larger daily Trend so if
we got this Movement we would then
follow out the system by looking for our
demand Zone and then we would look for a
pullback to buy from okay so then that's
where kind of our trading would begin
and if this doesn't happen obviously we
are in a demand now so it seems quite
probable up Trend demand Zone all good
but if that doesn't happen and we get a
break down well then what we would do
instead is just follow the existing
bearish daily structure because we would
then anticipate that this Market is
changing direction and starting to move
lower okay let's run this forward a
little
bit initially obviously not going to
really know immediately so the first
thing we note here is that we have had a
push and break over that high but it is
just a wick right now so what you could
possibly do is look for pullbacks and
buys but because we want to make sure
that the trending structure is moving
with us um to pretty much the most
favorable degree possible we would
prefer to wait for an actual proper
closure Above This high so if the market
did this then we could look for our
opportunities to buy and continue the
trend
okay so running this forward a bit there
we actually have a closure we've started
to see um significant momentum moving so
what we could actually do is use this
demand
potentially for a long opportunity right
this is something we could keep in mind
now that we've had this push and break
so this here has actually closed over
this previous High it hasn't closed over
this Wick yet but it does provide the
closure that we needed to see past the
previous High to start validating long
opportunities so if we were to get into
this trade we have buy limit as our
entry method stop beneath the low and
then we want to Target open Supply zones
so that would be our open Supply there
uh
14697 that of course however is not a
two R trade so if we try scaling in the
stop Blas as close as possible that's
going to be a 1.8% this is where we
could potentially start looking at is it
possible to refine onto the 4our time
frame so I actually do see slight
opportunity
here this gray candle so I use last
candle before the impulse for my supply
and demand Z this gray candle is the
last candle before the impulse so we
could actually go ahead and use the 4our
refinement like this we could have our
stop loss under the low still for the
daily we only really want to use that 4H
hour for refining trades past that we
are back to the Daily and this would
provide us with a 3.37% trade using 4H
hour entry buy limit on demand stop loss
still under the daily low Target into
the next daily Supply right so there so
now what we'd want to do is just place
our order which we can do because we're
using a simulator $2,000 risk that's 1%
$6.7 th000 potential return I'm going to
use a buy limit so let's throw that on
there like that and see if this trade
gets triggered so as you can see we
reacted from the daily demand not the 4H
hour so we can go ahead and remove this
now because the targets already been met
when the targets been met like that it's
unlikely the market is going to come and
pull back for us so what we're going to
do from this point onwards is just move
on to the next opportunity nice and
simple um obviously the daily would have
been okay but the risk reward was simply
not good enough to take that position
but what we have had now taking a look
at this is a closure Above This Supply
which pretty much opens doors to this
Supply up here we know now that this is
a bullish Trend right we've got actually
an extreme Supply at the top and because
we're expecting this Market to move into
an uptrend remember the bigger daily
picture we are looking for new highs to
be formed we'd say this target up here
could be a very nice Target for us to
try trade into if we get an entry okay
so what we could actually do at this
point if we take a look at this we got
daily retest daily
retest we could look at this candle here
I just like to use last candle before
the impulse now obviously uh as we can
see here we have pretty much
consolidation and then we impulsed away
so that's where I'd personally at the
moment like to use for my trade entry if
the market pulls back to this level and
then if we form any other areas after
that well then we'll work with those
instead right but for now this is a good
little trade so I'm going to go ahead
and place an
order and then we'll see what the market
gets up to from this point
onwards see if we can get a tap in
here okay so we've been tapped in we're
now at risk we got
2.6% um or 2.6% potential return take
profit then would be a win stop would be
a 1% loss which would $2,000 but we've
had a very nice reaction so far tapped
into demand we're starting to get a
pushup now remember we said we are set
and forgetting these trades so we're not
going to do stop loss management which
means there is possibility of it
flipping on you but that's just how it
is right there we go then we followed
through towards the target that's going
to be trade number one that actually got
triggered uh the first trade would have
been nice too but the risk reward wasn't
good enough hindsight could we have
continued it through to where we are now
it would have been good but we didn't
know that at the time so targeting that
nearer Supply was probably a good move
so there we go taking a look at the
realized profit we're at $5,000 but we
are towards mid Fed so with a daily time
frame system like this where you're
using daily and at lowest 4 Hour trades
are going to probably come around about
once a month per asset right so Euro USD
might get one trade u.j might get one
trade gbpusd might get one trade in a
month right so you're probably looking
at trading four to five different assets
and then seeing how you perform
basically average out cuz it's going to
be a very low frequency trading style
we've taken one trade here uh and we are
pretty much just a month and a half into
the year right I'm fine with that I
think that's fine but you just got to
keep in mind that when you are trading
higher time frame stuff there is that
possibility okay so it's not going to be
super high frequency right we're going
to leave that
on if we take a look at what we've got
now then we had a
pushup from this demand we had a push
from previous demand then we've had a
push from this demand so just here last
candle before the impulse so this could
be a good point for us to buy from for a
next potential trade we're in an uptrend
we're continuing that I guess what we
should probably do first is uh see how
the market comes in about this High I do
think to be fair we're in a clear
uptrend on The Daily so targeting now
that we've started pushing with some
significance targeting just continuation
of the highs in that larger daily
Trend this daily Trend here would be
wise and I think this would be a nice
opportunity to continue buying but we're
going to see if a nice clear Supply Zone
opens up for us to potentially uh Target
for a
position so see because we're daily time
frame trading as well we are going to be
waiting a while for trades to form so
just this range here is about two weeks
of trading right where we haven't really
done anything except go sideways so you
want to obviously have a collection of
different assets to pick trades from um
if you're going to be swing Trading like
this if you're day trading you can
sometimes work with just one or two
different assets cuz you're going to get
more
opportunities so we're going to Target
the swing high for a long here I'm still
liking the idea of Longs I think
everything's added up towards that this
trend is now bullish uh in line with the
larger daily Trend being bullish swing
High seems a clear Target if we had
another Supply to Target we would do but
I don't see one right now so we're going
to place the order and just see how that
goes UJ obviously when we take a look at
this price action has been a very clean
trending Market we could even see
previous examples where these same
setups will have worked multiple times
right we have demand come back retest
demand and push using some of the more
internal structure here demand demand
breaker structure breaker structure blah
blah blah there's so many setups that we
could have taken using the past price uh
data here with this exact system that
we're looking at
now because it's a strong trending
Market we could pretty much presume it
to continue uh working quite nicely
here we've been BL so far this is a nice
movement First Trade was a nice movement
this is like two trades I mean let's see
how this goes we do have set and forget
rule generally at this time
realistically I would be making Dynamic
exit so I'd be getting out of that trade
uh as opposed to leaving it just to
catch the one more pip but we've left
let it go anyway follow those set and
forget rules that's a 3.64% win and a
2.62% win which on a $200,000 account
which remember you can get these funded
is a $12,000
return okay very very good stuff now
presuming we are pushing to new
highs we may be able to just follow the
same exact format
again for a new
trade so there's a couple areas we could
look at
here we can look at a full complete
pullback towards this area and then the
other thing we could do because we've
just pushed formed a range and then this
new demand here has pushed a huge surge
upwards we could also look at kind of
this area for potential setups as well
let's just have a look uh how this how
this price action
goes so with the market rallying this
much it may be wise to start following
the trend a little bit closer this area
here let me explain this to you just a
little lesson on Supply demand basically
because we reaccumulated here and we
failed to break a high then we had this
huge surge through the high this area
here that we've marked out has
significant demand and significant
buying pressure behind it otherwise it
wouldn't have made such a huge dramatic
movement like that basically because it
was slow then it bombed like this it
shows us that this area here saw massive
levels of institutional buy angle
significant large orders on the buy side
that is what we're looking for when
we're looking for supply and demand
right we're looking for significant
buying and selling if you really wanted
to refine this down to its pure yourest
demand Zone it would be there but as I
did with the previous setups I prefer to
just keep the daily low
covered um this would be an idea of a
setup as of right now we need to see
maybe we formulate a little bit higher
but I do think this is going to be a
good point to work off
of we consider what we've seen here as
well we have this High higher low pushup
higher low pushup from the larger
perspective because we've got certain
sign significant momentum here I think
buying from these areas becomes a little
bit
risky I think we could potentially then
go for
this targets wise a little bit tricky
realistically targeting new swing high
would be
okay and then obviously what we've got
here is if this trade does lose so if we
were to get stopped out we would look
for a pullback towards this
area and then we could buy from there or
what we could do to be safe if we wanted
to because obviously we don't want to
Stack losses would be follow up this
loss with see how we got that
confirmation style trade here so we
waited for the structure to shift and
then we started buying we could do that
same thing inside of this area if we
fail from this top zone so we take one
loss but then we limit ourselves from
taking two three four losses if the
market keeps crashing through demand
zones um we can continue with with the
trend and if this fails shift into that
motion so this trade's also got
incredible risk reward once again no
clear Supply but we are in a very
visible uptrend we have this nice demand
Zone retest we can buy from there stops
under the daily Zone
7.35% which would be a $144,000 return
if this trade works and then if it loses
we may even have better risk reward from
this low Point providing we get the uh
reversal confirmation that we would want
to see so did we get tapped in or was we
missed on spread there yeah we are in
currently we have to set and forget this
trade based on the rules very very
pinpoint entry there basically pretty
much what I explained this is an area
where massive new buying has commenced
so obviously a pullback down and retest
of that level is going to be a pretty
favorable point for us to start
continuing higher there is opportunity
for us to break lower with the areas of
imbalance that we've got if that happens
that is
fine well we've got a very strong
trending Market here I'm just going to
say it would highlight the um obviously
different ways of approaching the system
but with such a strong bullish Market we
may be okay to just fill the target so
we just run it
through and there we go so this one
again is a win and that brings us to
pretty much the start of July when our
simulation is going to end so with u.j
with this system if we take a look back
at the rules daily time frame daily time
frame Trend buy from imbalanced demand
zones Target imbalanced Supply zones
failing the imbalanced supply zones if
we can't find one to Target we would
then Target swing highs right this would
also work on the sell side if we had a
bearish market we'd be selling Supply
targeting demand or targeting swing lows
so that is a very very very simplified
form of a system now this one obviously
6 months three trades 100% win rate
you're not going to get 100% win rate
with this system I promise okay this is
only three trades is a small sample not
all markets run like this as I'm sure
you probably know so I wouldn't get
super excited about having a holy girl
strategy here because there are going to
be different results on different pairs
as well okay if you're not in such a
strong trending Market obviously a daily
Trend following tra like trading system
like this is not going to perform so
well so what I'm going to do is I'm
going to go back test Euro USD and we'll
take a look at the combined results of
these three very nice trades paired with
whatever we get on EU we've piled the
analytics together just here so we can
see the total profit and loss made
through these two tests the same six
months the same trading system was
$46,000
now one thing to note the account
balance says
$446,000 this is because I ran two
different tests both with $200,000 each
so it's compiled them together but
realistically this would have been
traded with the same $200,000 so the
total account balance is generally $246
meaning it's around a 23% return okay
now from what we can see by compiling
these two we took 10 trades 71 three
lost as I said in the USD JPY example
that was an incredibly clean trending
Market which is pretty rare we don't
usually see that which is why I went
ahead and tested uh Euro USD as well the
price action on Euro was a little bit
more choppy so we actually got around a
60% win rate on that one instead of 70
I'd say that is probably more accurate
because eventually this UJ Trend will
come to an end you're going to have the
choppier markets to work with the
majority of other markets aren't as
clean as UJ so this probably wouldn't be
a 70% win rate it's going to be closer
to let's say 55 to 60% based on the
information we've collected so far but
we can see even then that's positive POS
and our positive risk reward is actually
going to make us win even if we were
losing for example 70% of the trades we
took 3.72 Will Keep Us floats okay so
obviously being a daily chart system
this is a very low frequency approach we
traded six months of data on two assets
and we only took 10 trades which is
pretty much just under two trades per
month right that's fine if we added
another asset that might add to that
again we may have 15 trades over the 6
months you could trade up to four five
six different assets with a system like
this because it is so passive and easy
to do a 23% return in 6 months is very
very good especially when we have such a
strong win rate of 55 to 60% if we were
to uh disregard of course the 100% win
rate of u.j and the average risk reward
being so strong at 3.72 meaning every $1
we risk is on average bringing back $372
cents in profit so let's take a look at
some of the information we want to pick
out of our back tests and our data
collection in order to build a positive
trading plan and make improvements in
the right direction the first thing we
need to know is what is our win rate
obviously this small sample size we're
going to call this around 55% to kind of
suit the 60% more so uh on Euro USD I
always like to be a bit more pessimistic
as well when we're forecasting kind of
how a system can do the way around with
this would be to just collect even more
data you could do another six 18 months
of data on this system that's going to
kind of average that win rate out to
something a little bit more viable to
work with because you'll have more
trades in your sample but I'm not going
to do that for this video you can do
that with your own systems when you get
to doing this yourself so we want to
know our win rates first of all we then
want to know our average risk reward we
want to know how often trades are coming
around for this it's around 1.8 times
per month for two assets if we add
another asset might go up to around 2.6
whatever then we want to know how big
our average winners are we already know
that from the risk reward average win is
going to be around 3.58% our average
loss minus 0.93 so we're containing
those losses to under 1% which is very
very nice another important thing you
need to know I'll explain why is the
average duration of winning and losing
trades so we know that a winning trade
is going to take on average 16 days
which is just over two weeks it's going
to be two trading weeks two sets of
weekend and then two more trading days
as well that's fine because we know that
this is a very passive easy system so if
we know this we actually can give the
patients to our system to allow these
trades to play out because one place
that Traders go wrong quite a lot is
they start panicking after a few hours
in a trade I need to get out it's not
moving as fast as I wanted to but when
you do your back test and you realize
okay this trade's actually going to take
two weeks in order to reach a profit now
you can give it that two weeks with
confidence knowing that on average
that's how long your system is going to
take in order to pay you out okay if
youve no idea how long your trades take
then it's very very easy to get stressed
out after a few hours or just one or two
days if you know that your winners are
going to take this long it's easier to
let them run we see our average duration
for losses is half the time they're
losing about a week but even then we
should be leaving these trades for about
2 weeks anyway to see if they can pull
through we should give them the patience
to do that and I'm not saying that you
need to be trading for 3 weeks right you
can do all this system application on a
much lower time frame like the hourly
and the 15 minute if you really want to
but I'm just showing you the highlights
here so we're looking for win rates
we're looking for risk reward we're
looking for how often trades are taken
and then we're looking for how long
those trades take to either win or lose
when we are in them some other important
information you can pull from your
system yet not quite as applicable to a
swing trading strategy like this would
be number one where are your trades
taken where are the max risk reward
trades taken where's the most money made
basically we see here it's a New York
session across the board right for a
swing trading strategy this doesn't
really mean much because we're holding
trades through multiple sessions every
week but when you are trading on a day
trading perspective it's good to see
which is your most and least profitable
session because then you can start
putting more focus into London for
example and eliminating New York if
that's unprofitable or the other way
around whatever it is that your data
provides same here performance by time
it's non applicable to swing trading it
doesn't matter when we get into trades
because they're open for weeks anyway
but if you're day trading once again all
you would want to do here is say okay
well maybe this time 7: to 10: a.m.
early in the morning is incredibly
unprofitable for you for your day
trading whereas let's say 12 to1 is high
hyper profitable so now you want to
tailor your trading to try and find
executions around this time at the start
of New York and eliminate London and
you're probably starting to see now how
we get that base plan like what we built
and turn it into something more
personalized and more impressive with
stronger improvements and better
performance long term right we're
getting this info we tailor it we
repackage it into a new approach to the
system and then we test it again until
everything is optimized now as we said
this system did 23% obviously as I said
here because the start balance is
classified as 200,000 plus 200,000 it
thinks we're trading with 400,000
realistically that would be the same
$200,000 across the board so we're
looking at around a 23% return in 6
months of trading which is brilliant by
the way we have around 3.4% in Jan 6% in
Feb 3% in March minus 1% in April and
June and then around 12 or 133% in may
now this is obviously a pretty good
distribution we have mostly positive
months the losing months are very small
at 1% the winning months are
considerably larger than that right 3%
6% 3% 133% almost so that makes for a
very nice distribution where we are
majority profitable and as we say if we
added more Assets in as well some of
these losses would probably go away too
because we are going to hit those larger
wins right so let's say in April we took
the 1% loss but say audchf if we bought
that in may have taken a two three R
winner that would then obviously
overcome that loss so as I say we do
have a pretty Limited sample size here
but you're starting to see how these
things come together and how we want to
look at this data now one thing I want
to show you is this it's a Monte Carlo
simulation and I'm pretty happy because
I didn't even know this was in effect
replay I was about to go to another
website and then I realized that this is
here so what this does is actually
present to you whether or not your
system is profitable or not so if we
were to run this information with the
$246,000 start balance from where we are
now our average gain is just
automatically calculated it's around 3%
3 5% our average loss is 1% at
$2,000 let's say we take 100 trades on
this system we'll run five different
simulations if we were to run that
simulation it's going to tell us the
worst best and average outcome okay we
could even do 10 simulations to get a
larger average idea so we can see the
average balance after taking 100 trades
which is going to be a few years of
trading here would be $691,000 which is
about $450,000 more uh in profit than
what we actually have got at the start
Point best case scenario is going to be
at 750 minimum balance is going to be
608 so even if we performed as poorly as
this system could possibly perform we
would still make a considerable return
over 100 traes okay now as I said I
don't think this 70% win rate is
considerably accurate because it will go
down right it will go down once we have
a larger sample size we're not going to
win every trade on UJ I promise so we're
going to call it 50% just to be a bit
more pessimistic and a bit more
realistic this is then going to give us
the ideas over that 100 Trade sample the
average balance is going to be around
520k Max 640 minimum 430 and what we're
really looking for here is an idea as to
whether a system is viable or not now we
can see here with a minimum of 100%
return that's the very worst case by the
way this rarely rarely ever happens
you'd have to be crazy unlucky to hit
that and crazy lucky to hit this the
average is going to be around where you
hit so anywhere from 500 to 550,000 is
probably a good Baseline for this
long-term test right and this also
compounds doesn't really include
withdraws so that's something to factor
in as well but really what we're looking
for is this system profitable is there
opportunity for it to lose we can see
with a 50% win rate no this system is
going to win okay there's no way we can
really lose in this system yes we'll
have draw down but we are not going to
actually be losing money over the long
term if we drop the win rate to 30%
let's take a look what that looks like
now this isn't quite so good right we
can see the worst case outcome generally
over 100 trades is going to be positive
but there is possibility let's actually
jump this up to 40 simulations we may
start to see some going negative yes as
you can see if we look at a larger
average or for example if we looked at
more trades you'd see that okay more
trades kind of fixes the issue but some
of these go pretty negative before they
start to pull back positive Okay so if
we drop it to 20% I think that's going
to ruin the whole system based on our
risk reward you start to see yep we are
now pretty much moving down the only way
to win in this instance it's possible
but would be pure look and you're not
going to perform well trading like this
over the long term okay so this
simulator here is really really solid
for working out what kind of win rates
and stuff you're going to need uh and
the averages that you can expect to
achieve on your system so from what I've
showed you you understand the importance
of building out a trading plan and
you're starting to see how this can
absolutely change the game for you if
you build out a plan like this and then
you apply it in a tested simulated
scenario you can start to build
experience build information and
understand how to better your systems it
will give you a good idea as to whether
what you're doing is actually going to
be a profitable long-term approach to
trading and if not you can fix it and if
it is you can improve it even further my
guess is you probably haven't done any
of this if you have congratulations you
need to do more of it and you need to do
it better but if you haven't gone ahead
and done some back testing you haven't
tried to build a trading plan it's fine
if you didn't understand that this was a
thing but this is the most important
element in trading now you can stop
trading based on Hope like you are and
you can start looking at some of this
very important information that our
systems show us when we test them like
we have in this video so you need a
systemized process rolled into a trading
plan that pretty much automates inside
of your mind the risk management and all
of the technical and fundamental
analysis processes that you will be
using to find your trades entry criteria
exit criteria trade management risk per
trade risk rewards all of that stuff it
needs to be systemized into a trading
plan and that is how you are going to
reach success so now we're going to
continue along this journey that we've
been taking I've helped you to uncover A
New Perspective on trading and I've
showed you how to develop a validated
system now we need to look at how to
build your skills and experience without
risking loads of money so that you can
get funded with $100,000 or more in
trading capital and start becoming
consistent in your trading we talked
about all of the different shortcuts
that hold Traders back like signals
account flips copy trading and generally
holding a short-term Focus but if we
want to win we really need to eliminate
all of this stuff cuz all it does is
cost us money time and focus with all of
that stuff gone to succeed there's only
really one solution and that is to slow
down the pace that you're trying to win
at because rushing is causing you to
make loads of mistakes and waste your
time looking for the fastest way to
success you need to go back to the
beginning Back to Basics and commit to
every step of the following four-step
process that I'm going to teach you in
today's class and that framework is what
I call the LTV trading model now this is
no crazy magic pill it simply stands for
learn test validate and earn and this is
the process that I believe you should
take in your trading in fact from the
amount of people I've taught that have
reached success by following this system
I believe it's doubtedly the best way
for you to reach success as well before
I cover the four-step process I just
want to refer back to these worries that
you might have you might think I don't
have any trading experience so this
probably isn't going to work for me or
I've tried everything else and that
hasn't worked so how will this but the
reason that this framework is so
insanely effective is because it pretty
much a hard reset on your brain so if
you're brand new to trading it's fine
you can follow this process from day one
and avoid all of the losses chances if
you're watching this you're not brand
new you've probably been stuck for some
time but if you follow this four-step
process it will begin as pretty much a
hard reset on everything and all the bad
habits that you've learned up to this
point so that you can move forward
successfully so you can do this even if
you've got no experience or only losing
experience up to this point and if you
follow it all correctly you'll come out
the other side with five or six figure
results and the capabilities to turn
trading into a full-time career which
I'm sure is your goal so here's exactly
what we do then first of all all we are
going to learn a particular strategy or
approach to trading that fits around our
lifestyle so you need to decide whether
you're going to be swing trading or day
trading so here's exactly what we do in
four steps first we learn a particular
trading strategy or approach to trading
that fits around our lifestyle when
we've done that we move on to collect
data on the systems that we learn and
get familiar with them by testing with
past and present price data after that
we validate the success of these systems
and our general approach to trading and
once we've done that we can finally go
on to actually see the reward for our
work we can earn by using these systems
to acquire funded capital and leverage
that capital for profit and this is why
I believe this is the best way to trade
you don't have to lose thousands on the
learning curve you might have already
done that but you don't have to lose
thousands more you don't have to invest
thousands of dollars of your own money
in order to achieve great returns
because you'll be working with other
people's money you don't have to spend
10 hours a day on the chart wasting your
life away achieving nothing in return
and the whole process is systemized to
ensure your success from pretty much the
day you begin which is going to be today
all things considered this beats pretty
much anything else out there and now we
will cover all four points of the
four-step process to building a
successful trading career in the next 6
to 12 months and if you remember back to
earlier in this series I told you we
only really need to achieve 3 to 5% per
month let me show you the math behind
that if we're trading with $100,000 in
capital which you can get hold of for
literally as little as $500 that's
$3,000 to $5,000 per per month in
average income bumping that up to
200,000 and you double up to 6,000 to
10,000 and if you tradeing with 300K
well you can make 9 to 15,000 a month
simply by achieving 3 to 5% small
consistent returns and of course trading
is not smooth sailing so we do need to
account for profit splits and losing
months they will knock the profits a bit
but you're also going to have bigger
months right it's variance deviation one
month may be smaller but another may be
much much bigger and once you've
completed this four-step process your
career will naturally scale up so these
numbers can keep growing along with your
personal skills experience and progress
It's a naturally scaling career so now
let's actually get into this four-step
process make sure you listen carefully
to everything I say from this point
onwards because I'm going to be teaching
you exactly what you need to do pretty
much quarter by quarter over the
following year and if you do everything
I say you will win so let's get to it
step number one learn and it's not only
charts that you want to learn about
mindset risk management macroeconomics
and pretty much everything else need to
be covered here so start reading up on
news and how it affects markets make
sure that your systems incorporate risk
management and also take a look at some
books and make sure you're consciously
aware of the psychological sides of
trading if you fail to get yourself
properly educated on every single topic
it's like you're deciding from day one
that you want to lose forever and now
when it comes to the systems so the risk
control and the technicals I suggest you
choose a mentor whoever it is that
resonates best with you it doesn't have
to to be me whoever you find the most
beneficial to your journey choose that
mentor and eliminate everyone else in
trading taking what seems like the slow
route is actually usually the fastest
route to success so when you stop
focusing shortterm and you eliminate
those signals copy trading and all of
that stuff and instead focus on just
learning from the ground up you'll
actually reach success a lot faster than
those who don't now the reason I say you
should just choose one mentor and learn
from them is conflict so I trade
Concepts that look very similar to of
many Traders nowadays we all use similar
stuff but we use things in different
ways so my system may look very similar
to someone else's but there specific
intricacies like the way we Mark supply
and demand the way we use imbalances the
way we find our targets and our actual
entry models they can be very different
it's actually the big reason that
self-taught Traders fail usually forever
and if not then usually for quite a long
time because they are trying to take
information from here and information
from here and cram them together and it
just doesn't work so whoever the mentor
is that you've taken the most value from
and that you resonate with the most
choose them and learn your systems from
them not someone else don't go
nitpicking online to try and find a
little bit of information from this
person and a little bit of information
from this person cuz they just won't add
up when I say this I am directly
referring to macroeconomics technicals
and your actual trading strategy when it
comes to different risk control ideas or
psychological based stuff or career
progression based stuff you can take
that from anywhere because you can layer
that value onto your trading system but
just make make sure you stick to one
person and one source and one system
when you're trying to learn an actual
strategy now on to step number two test
I actually showed you previously how to
do this using back testing software and
when you get this right you'll make
money live 10 times as easy and the big
question we want to answer before we
start testing a system is does your
system or strategy cover every single
element of trading mindset psychology
macros technicals all of it needs to be
covered so inside of your trading system
you need technical analysis fundamental
analysis entry methods trade management
profit taking contingency exits so stop
losses trailing things like that and
journaling as well as mental management
because trading in a simulation allows
you to collect years worth of data on
the performance of your approach in just
a few weeks or months in just one to two
months you can make two to 5 years worth
of progress and experience building
which is why this is so much more
beneficial than demo trading you get to
determine the viability of your systems
way sooner therefore you can start
making money sooner an awesome byproduct
of testing alongside determining the
viability is that you get to use your
data to eliminate weaknesses we're not
just talking about the concepts that you
use to find traits we're also talking
about entry models exit criteria how to
manage trades when you're in them as
well as all the other stuff like Risk
control risk to reward probabilities and
win rates all of that stuff see trading
is about having an edge and all of these
things come together to create your Edge
if one of them is missing you're missing
a key piece of the puzzle and you're
probably not going to win for too long
even if you have a good run for a few
days or a few weeks once you have every
element of your system dialed in it's
time to test and you do this using a
back testing software like FX replay I
showed you this in the previous class
there's a card somewhere at the top of
the video taking you to that with this
software you can actually trade past
price action and collect massive amounts
of information before actually then
going forward to the live markets now
doing this will give you years worth of
data market experience and a deep
understanding of your system a lot
faster than if you try and do this on
demo and the sad truth is nine out of 10
Traders skip the testing phase all
together it's so rare when I talk to a
Trader that they actually put in the
time to back test which means that 90%
of Traders have literally no clue if the
strategy they're using can actually make
money and I want to show you an example
from someone that I taught who followed
this system to succeed so to begin with
he was strategy hopping looking for
quick fixes and altering his strategy
based on information he found on random
mentals YouTube videos and this held him
back from winning he had information
overload when he committed to the learn
and test phases he carried out a full
year of back testing using the systems
that I taught him since then he's
acquired multiple funded accounts and
achieved multiple payouts now you'll see
some of these certificates are pretty
old now but check this out he's actually
still getting payouts consistently just
a couple of weeks ago before making this
video he posted this with eight months
of payouts in a row so you can see that
the importance of making sure you take
the time and energy to test your systems
before you start trading them live most
Traders don't and it is literally the
reason why most Traders fail it's
probably why you're losing now you're
misguided you've got no system you're
kind of guessing at every trade
everything's a Gamble and everything's
based on Hope because it's a
probabilities and statistics game in
reality that is what we need to focus on
and without probabilities and statistics
on our side we are not going to win
longterm so get that testing in make
sure you put in the work I know it's not
as fun as live trading but it will set
you miles ahead and I promise when
you're making money with trading because
you tested you'll find that fun indeed
so now on to step three validate do you
know what the expected return of your
system is month by month quarter by
quarter year by year if you don't why
are you even trading see to make money
consistently we need to know that we
have a valid system for doing that so
validating is the final step we have to
take before we get to the good stuff the
funding the profit and the actual career
the funding the profit and the ability
to quit your 9 to-5 and trade as a
career so what exactly is this
validating stage then so validating is
actually just a skill transfer process
once you've done testing you'll have a
good understanding of the statistics
behind your system how often you win how
often you lose your average risk to
reward ratios that you achieve on
winning trades how long winning trades
take to play out how long losing trades
take to play out the best time of day
and the best day to take trades and all
of this information back testing however
has one major problem and that is that
it doesn't bring the psychological
implications that live trading brings
there's no money on the line you can fly
through testing really quick which is
good in a sense but it also means you
don't have to be patient while trades
play out and if you're missing the
patience the discipline and the ability
to handle stress in real-time scenarios
well even the best system is probably
not going to be applied properly when
you take it to the charts so what we do
in validation is take our system over
from the testing stage onto small Live
accounts and demo accounts to put them
into action in real time so validating
is where we build real life experience
trading the markets with our tested
strategies and the goal inside of phase
three is not to make money so if you're
trading a small Live account don't worry
about actually generating meaningful
profits the goal here is to master your
system and to master yourself and when
you do this you can move on to facee 4
and you'll make a lot more money there
than you will here by wasting your time
chasing short-time returns so how much
of this validation this demo and small
life trading do I suggest you do well
realistically you only need to do 2 to 3
months and if that is successful and you
have two to three profitable months
where your system was applied correctly
you can move on and if you mess up this
2 to three months well then you just do
two to three more until you hit your
goals and actually apply your system
successfully to the real markets and I
know some of you might be thinking 2 to
3 months is too long I need to make
money now but if you rush this process
you'll be stuck losing blowing accounts
failing evaluation ations throwing away
money and wasting precious time as I
said before the slow route is the
fastest route to success so by this
point you're probably starting to
understand that all you need is the
right system the right guidance and just
one to two hours per day to actually
apply these systems to go through that
learn test and validate stage so that
you can move on to earning and actually
making money from Trading and absolutely
anyone can do this it's going to be hard
work and it's not going to be as fun as
active trading but I promise a few years
down line when you're making significant
money from Trading consistently it will
be very fun indeed now I already showed
you some results from traders who use
this system but I'm going to show you
more to keep you motivated and make sure
you understand that this can work for
you you are no different to the people
who we seeing win here and all of those
Traders I just showed you did this by
following this simple process of
building a skill set and then leveraging
the opportunities that we have at our
Disposal today which we'll cover now in
Step number four earn the final stage
earning this is where things get
interesting and it's where you start to
see reward for the work you've put in up
to this point if you focus in on the
system that I've given you today there's
no reason that you can't be at this
point in 9 to 12 months time and look I
know that might sound far off for some
but realistically it's very close and if
you're so short-term focused that you
think 9 or 12 months from now sounds
very far away I promise you you are
going to lose forever so just get your
mindset right and be patient so in the
earning stage what we want to do is
start utilizing our skills and
leveraging things like prop firms which
are companies that will lend you money
to trade with or not lend at you they
will give you money to trade with and
you get to keep between 70 to 90% of the
profits all you have to do is pass an
evaluation to show you can make money
without losing a lot of money and if you
do this they will give you the capital
to trade with you only need to put a
tiny amount of money down I.E around
$500 to get access to 100,000 in buying
power and you can scale up and leverage
from there so regardless if you're super
broke or super rich I think prop firms
are probably the best way that you can
enter into the markets to mitigate risk
keep that risk down keep your own money
safe but also leverage your skill set to
make multiple thousand instead of just
making $10 or $20 here and there trading
on small accounts prop firms are going
to be a good choice for two reasons a
you simply don't have the $50,000
minimum that you're going to need to
make any reasonable returns trading
because realistically you are going to
need that much if you want to make a
career out of this and that is the bare
minimum or B if you do have a bunch of
money will go you but there's no point
risk in it when you can make the same
returns with someone else's money
without bearing the risk of losing all
of your own and when you have the funded
account you just continue to follow your
validated system and watch the money
rolling consistently month after month
albe it of course with some losing
months because that's just how trading
is this is where we see that natural
scaling begin where on month one you can
start with a smaller account but a bit
down the line that account May scale you
may get more and you can do the same
work to generate larger returns and and
as the years go by this will continually
compound if you follow this framework
that I laid out for you today the
potential will open for you to achieve
$10,000 months and Beyond and I know
that sounds crazy but we do it all the
time these are just some of the results
that this systems achieved for others
we've got $10,000 here $4,000 there
$6,000 there $20,000 there so the
question becomes how do you get results
like this well I should Hope by now the
answer is becoming pretty clear you need
to put this four-step LTV system into
action in your own trading first you
need to learn a trading strategy from
someone else or you can build one
yourself but that will take a lot longer
then you need to test this system using
back testing software to collect a few
years of data and understand whether or
not this system works once you've done
that you should then go on to validate
that system by trading it in a demo and
then a small Live account and once
you're doing that profitably and you've
transferred those skills over from a
very base idea into actual consistent
results with small money or fake money
then you can go on to earn and you can
start focusing in on scaling up with
prop firms getting access to hundreds of
thousands of dollars of real Capital to
trade with and pulling in profits
without the risk yourself I've showed
you the right way to view trading I've
showed you how to build a trading plan
and how to test it by using your back
testing software I've given you pretty
much the exact step by step that you
need to follow to become profitable in
the next 12 months if you want my advice
on how to apply the LTV system I would
say segment it into to 3month periods
spend 3 months learning mastering and
reverse engineering a system once you've
done that spend the next 3 months back
testing that system meticulously to make
sure you can collect every single piece
of information from it and make
improvements as you go and once you're
happy with that system move on to the
next 3 months of validation trade demo
for a month if that goes well shift to a
small Live account and now this is the
phase that you might have to extend so
maybe things go great maybe you transfer
your skills perfectly in just 3 months
but if you have three losing months or
you have two losing months and then you
start winning just extend this period
out until you're starting to see results
because honestly there is no reason to
move on to the earn stage if you're
still losing on demo you're not going to
make money and instead of earning all
you will do is lose so follow that plan
and if everything works out fine in the
next 9 to 12 months you should be able
to get funded and start making profits
and if it takes you a little bit longer
that's no worry anyway you'll still get
there a lot faster doing this than you
will by wasting all of your time and
energy with the shortcuts and signals
and other that we've covered so
that's it that is all that you really
need to do to become a profitable Trader
Go Back to Basics and follow this system
from start to finish and you will win
