okay so I took 30 minutes out of my day today to record for you and so yeah I I need to give you guys compensation you know know because I know you guys have been waiting for this end of week and I
Speaker A
Okay, so I took 30 minutes out of my day today to record for you, and so yeah, I need to give you guys compensation, you know, because I know you guys have been waiting for this end of week, and I can't deliver. So let's just get this out of the way.
Speaker A
informative and aspect as possible Right what have we learned we've learned the four types of SNR okay EQ and CC to get your first entries okay and then trend lines right to get your your zero float entries for example and then you know
Speaker A
Okay, so I'm just going to repeat myself. I wrote just now. Okay, so the fifth session. Okay, let's cut to the [ __ ] because I want to make it as informative and as packed as possible. Right? What have we learned? We've learned the four types of SNR, okay, EQ and CC to get your first entries, okay, and then trend lines, right, to get your zero float entries, for example, and then you know about the breakout and the H4 rule and also H4 setups.
Speaker A
invalidate double confirmations okay setups that invalidate double confirmation so for example right have you seen these kind of setups again I've I've recorded 30 minutes of this but I did I didn't turn on the record button ah right is it turned on
Speaker A
Okay, next, the double confirmation. Okay, next, the last thing we have to learn is multi-time frame and direct setups, right? So what are direct setups? Direct setups are the setups that invalidate double confirmations. Okay, setups that invalidate double confirmation. So, for example, right, have you seen these kinds of setups? Again, I've recorded 30 minutes of this, but I didn't turn on the record button. Ah, right, is it turned on? Yes, it is.
Speaker A
setup so what is a gap direct setup so the same candle the same candle that respects this classic broke out this Gap so if this happens just buy instead of sell and a good example I can give of this is this I want to show you
Speaker A
Right, so have you seen these kinds of setups? So this is your double confirmation, but instead of it going down, it went up instead. So one way to combat this is by simply using direct setups. This, for example, is a gap direct setup. So what is a gap direct setup? So the same candle, the same candle that respects this classic broke out this gap. So if this happens, just buy instead of sell. And a good example I can give of this is this. I want to show you the M15. There we go.
Speaker A
way right so what about this so here's where multi time frame comes in right when you look at this the this is an m30 setup not an M15 setup so how do I differentiate with that so you have to know you have to
Speaker A
So the same candle that respected this classic is the candle that broke out this gap. So instead of selling, you could buy. Okay, and this happens millions of times every single day. Okay, it just happens that way. Right?
Speaker A
and this once you start using direct setups it should bump your win rate into the 70s okay and from there you should be able to flip any account into any size or perhaps get funded and basically do something with your life all right so
Speaker A
So what about this? So here's where multi-time frame comes in, right? When you look at this, this is an M30 setup, not an M15 setup. So how do I differentiate with that? So you have to know, you have to know that first of all, direct setups work very well with M15 and H1, but on H4 and M30, they don't work well. So if you have an M30 setup and it gives you double confirmation, take it without remorse. Okay, it usually works.
Speaker A
this is the classic and the same candle that respects this classic is the same candle that broke this left shoulder so instead of selling you buy you just buy here don't worry about it okay so this is how people like people do this [ __ ]
Speaker A
Okay, and this once you start using direct setups, it should bump your win rate into the 70s. Okay, and from there, you should be able to flip any account into any size or perhaps get funded and basically do something with your life. All right, so this was the gap direct setup. We have three types of direct setup: the gap, the HNS, and the BOO. So what? How is it? That was the gap direct setup, and so this is the HNS direct setup.
Speaker A
exactly how I do it and so last but not least we have the bo the breakout okay the breakout let's say you have a classic somewhere here or Gap or whatever okay and the same candle that respects this uh whatever on the left is
Speaker A
So this is the classic, and the same candle that respects this classic is the same candle that broke this left shoulder. So instead of selling, you buy. You just buy here. Don't worry about it. Okay, so this is how people, like people do this [ __ ] like, "Oh, you're selling, I'm buying." Okay, and that's basically how I get a lot of my news entries. Okay, because let's say I didn't get the bottom of the news, I get in the middle, and this is exactly how I do it.
Speaker A
with you and we'll get this done together okay look at this beautiful Gap set up respect it and then it went up yes it floated a bit but no problem you could take the little 30 Pips right and why did this so you can
Speaker A
And so last but not least, we have the BO, the breakout. Okay, the breakout. Let's say you have a classic somewhere here or gap or whatever. Okay, and the same candle that respects this, uh, whatever on the left is the same candle that broke this out. Okay, so, uh, do your backtesting. It's not as hard as you think it is.
Speaker A
it's empty and no one empty doesn't give a [ __ ] if you have a direct setup okay next look at this isn't my favorite l oh no no no you cannot use this because this Shadow did not touch the bottom didn't touch
Speaker A
Okay, and on Friday, not Friday, this coming week, perhaps once I finish celebrating my [ __ ] awesome birthday, uh, I'll be back with you and we'll get this done together. Okay, look at this beautiful gap setup, respect it, and then it went up. Yes, it floated a bit, but no problem. You could take the little 30 pips, right?
Speaker A
but M15 is very very important for you to observe direct setups okay right let me show you some more examples of direct setups these guys happen all the time so look at why did this work okay breakout Miss before after it respected this and
Speaker A
And why did this? So you can see that this is gaps, and this same thing, this is the, it respected a gap, but there was a gap direct setup. But why didn't it go down instead of go up? Right? Why didn't it go down? Because, because it's empty, and no one, empty doesn't give a [ __ ] if you have a direct setup.
Speaker A
be something uh I want to show direct setup uh this is empty this was M5 I got this one M5 all right how do you use M5 only use M5 when price is in the middle of nowhere basically when price is starting
Speaker A
Okay, next, look at this. Isn't my favorite? Oh no, no, no, you cannot use this because this shadow did not touch the bottom, didn't touch the body. So over here, the M30, so while it respected this M3, there was an HNS direct setup, but did it go up or did it go down? It still went down. Why? Because it's M30, and M30 doesn't care if you have a direct setup.
Speaker A
over here right this is a direct setup it respected this classic but this was the Gap brok this was the Gap that broken out so it went up instead uh over here no this is not good because it
Speaker A
But M15 is very, very important for you to observe direct setups. Okay, right, let me show you some more examples of direct setups. These guys happen all the time. So look at why did this work? Okay, breakout miss before, after it respected this, and there was no direct setup here to basically launch it in the opposite direction. So there it goes.
Speaker A
final session this is the most expensive thing in my opinion so there's going to be a few types of setups it's going to be Gap setups uh classic setups breakout setup okay it's also going to be CC setups okay
Speaker A
Let me show you some more. Um, this was on the M5. I'm sure if you look at the M5 here, there was, there must be something. Uh, I want to show direct setup. Uh, this is empty. This was M5. I got this one M5. All right, how do you use M5? Only use M5 when price is in the middle of nowhere, basically when price is starting to make impulsive movements over here, right? Basically, you're not sure that there isn't any M15, M30, H1 level anywhere close. So that's the only time you open M5 and look at it.
Speaker A
certain things you just can't ignore totally certain things that work with direct setup things don't work well so it really depends on what level it respects as well so this is a more deeper live on it okay so don't worry
Speaker A
Okay, but I don't want to teach that. Let me show you over here. Right, this is a direct setup. It respected this classic, but this was the gap broke, this was the gap that broken out. So it went up instead. Uh, over here, no, this is not good because it already respected here.
Speaker A
I should be able to give you a final session right okay bye-bye m
