GxT | Decoupling Lecture — Transcript

Garrett explains decoupling in indices markets, covering relative strength, coupling, SMT, and trading strategies for manipulation and reversals.

Key Takeaways

  • Decoupling involves indices expanding in opposite directions, signaling manipulation and trading opportunities.
  • ES is usually the middle asset and should not be traded during decoupling until confirmation.
  • Intermarket relations provide additional bias but are only useful when markets are strongly trending.
  • Key levels and draw liquidity are critical for anticipating reversals and continuation moves.
  • Waiting for confirmation through candle closes and SMT is essential before trading decoupling moves.

Summary

  • Introduction to decoupling as part of Acid Sync Part Two, focusing on indices markets.
  • Explanation of relative strength among NQ, YM, and ES indices, with ES typically as the middle asset.
  • Definition of coupling as market expansion in opposite directions, with examples of NQ and YM movements.
  • Advice to avoid trading ES during decoupling until re-sync occurs.
  • Use of intermarket relations as confluence, noting metals and oil trends relative to indices.
  • Identification of manipulation at highs, lows, and gaps, focusing on key levels and draw liquidity.
  • Introduction of the concept of forcing distribution as expansion away from manipulation towards liquidity.
  • Distinction between coupling for reversal (manipulation into key levels) and continuation (strength switch).
  • Description of expansion candles (PSPs) and the importance of waiting for candle closes to confirm trades.
  • Summary of coupling sequence for reversal, emphasizing clear key levels and price movement opposite to draw liquidity.

Speaker A
Should be good here. Hello. Hello. Yeah, recording. All right, cool. Sound problem. You got quiet.
00:11
Speaker A
Am I good or what? I don't understand what's going on here. All right. Yeah. I don't know. Y'all got to like figure it out. I don't know.
00:22
Speaker A
[snorts] Y'all can see my screen. Man, I cut my finger, dude. Moving something heavy lowkey won't stop bleeding.
00:35
Speaker A
Anyways, let's go ahead and start, guys. So, today we're going to be, um, going over some slides on decoupling. Now, this is just a section in, uh, Acid Sync Part Two.
00:51
Speaker A
So, yeah, let's get into it. This should be like a basic introduction to the coupling. All right. So, first let's go over, uh, relative strength. So, this is something you can only really apply to the indices market. I'm not too sure if
01:08
Speaker A
it works for oil or gold. I haven't seen—I don't have—I with my observation, I haven't really seen anything too noticeable with it. Um, but this is simply—it's very simple, right? This is how it pretty much goes. If NQ is
01:22
Speaker A
leading, if NQ is the leading asset, then YM is almost always the lagging asset and ES is always the middle asset in this sequence, right? But if YM is leading, if it's the strongest, right? Then NQ is the weakest and ES will always remain
01:40
Speaker A
typically in the middle, right? So if you see ES is the asset that manipulates, that is typically a low probability cracking correlation. Okay?
01:50
Speaker A
Typically ES is like 95% of the time is going to be that middle asset. Okay.
01:58
Speaker A
Now let's go over the coupling. Right? So what would that look like when the market is decoupled? Right? So what is the coupling? It's essentially when the market is expanding in opposite directions. Now with the indices market if NQ is expanding higher in one
02:13
Speaker A
direction then YM will be expanding in the opposite direction [clears throat] right. In the middle asset ES will be like consolidating. So we never want to trade ES when the market is decoupled.
02:25
Speaker A
Never trade ES. You have to wait for the re-sync to trade ES because this asset is typically always going to be just consolidating basically, right, because it's the middle asset. Um, so if for example NQ expanding lower then what
02:38
Speaker A
would YM be doing? Expanding higher. So pretty simple stuff. Now let's go over intermarket relations.
02:45
Speaker A
This is something we can use as a confluence and this is how I pretty much use it. Um, essentially when I see one of these markets being extremely bullish like, uh, heavily bullish, right, or bearish, this can aid in my bias for another
03:01
Speaker A
market. So for example, if the indices market is extremely bullish, that typically means that we can be bullish on the metals. So gold and silver, we should also be bullish. Right? And on the oil, it moves in the opposite
03:16
Speaker A
direction as the metals and the indices trend now. This does not mean that they all can't move in the same direction.
03:23
Speaker A
This does not mean that. Right. Right. So this is why I only use it if one asset is like extremely bullish or bearish. Right. If it's kind of just like chopping like what can you really do with that information? You can't
03:34
Speaker A
really do nothing like that. And the US dollar also moves in opposite direction of, um, YM or not YM, the indices market. Okay, so this is just like a little extra confluence that you can use which we won't talk about too much in
03:49
Speaker A
today's video. Now let's go into, um, where we look for the coupling to kind of cap off. Right? So obviously the coupling is simply manipulation and where do we look for manipulation at highs and lows and gaps. Okay. So always
04:08
Speaker A
we're going to be looking for a relevant level for the, uh, markets to expand into and this is where we should expect the market to obviously reverse from, right, and we look at that opposing, uh, asset.
04:23
Speaker A
So if NQ is the asset that is manipulating the YM will actually be expanding in the opposite direction towards the draw liquidity. So if you have a predetermined bias and a draw liquidity maybe this is your higher time
04:35
Speaker A
from key level that NQ is expanding into. This is when decoupling becomes really easy to anticipate. Right? Really all we're looking for is a higher time from key level one of the assets to decouple into to manipulate to create
04:49
Speaker A
SMT. And if that, uh, opposing asset is just expanding away from that, this is what it's called, uh, if you ever heard the term, uh, what is it?
05:01
Speaker A
I forgot the term Quarterly Theory uses [snorts] I forgot the term man. Oh no, I'm thinking of it.
05:12
Speaker A
[sighs] Who can help me? Who can help me? Who knows what it is? Yeah, forcing distribution. That's what it is. Forcing distribution. All right. It's simply expansion away from the manipulation towards the key level. The real move expansion towards draw liquidity. The
05:25
Speaker A
fake move expansion away from the draw liquidity aka into a key level to reverse price. Right? And you don't want to trade the middle assets until this asset manipulates. Let me get that confirmation. That's when you can trade
05:37
Speaker A
the middle asset as a lagging asset. So what is the coupling? Simply manipulation, right? Where is it going to cap off into a relevant level with SMT, right? So that would be for reversal. Now the coupling for continuation is
05:55
Speaker A
essentially a strength switch, right, where you're basically trading after the manipulation, right? So after the manipulation happens if you see a decoupling move, right, uh, back in towards the reversal, right, or away from the overall draw liquidity this is where we
06:12
Speaker A
look for that strength switch, right? So this is where YM already hit the draw liquidity. YM start to trade higher while these assets trade lower. What is that? A strength switch, right? Price is gravitating towards each other. You can
06:23
Speaker A
see this asset is trading higher into a key level. These assets are trading away from the, uh, reversal towards the draw liquidity, right? Uh, obviously you need SMT with the key level, right? Same thing, right? So pretty simple stuff.
06:39
Speaker A
Now the coupling we know is expansion, um, you know, away from, um, or expansion on two different assets, right, in opposite directions. That's what I was trying to say. Jesus. Um, and that's going to create these higher time frame expansion
06:54
Speaker A
candles, right? In the form of PSPs, right? So if you have two expanding markets trading opposite directions, that's going to create two, um, expansion candles closing in opposite directions, right? And the trigger is typically going, typically going to be a two-stage
07:09
Speaker A
PSP, right? So, you're going to wait for that candle to close, right? So, you're basically waiting for time to align. So, maybe this is the 6 a.m. candle, right? This is a 6 a.m. candle. You're going to wait for 10 a.m. to re-sync,
07:21
Speaker A
right? That's when you want to trade that lagging asset if you wanted to trade that right back in towards the, uh, true draw liquidity, right? Because this would be viewed as manipulation, right?
07:32
Speaker A
This opposing candle, we trade into a key level, maybe create SMT and whatnot. Just wait for this candle to close, right? Obviously doesn't support expansion anyways. Wait for that two-stage PSP. Like super simple, right?
07:47
Speaker A
Now, we're going to talk about, um, or this is just how to kind of put it all together, right? So, this is going to be the coupling sequence reversal, right?
07:56
Speaker A
So, if it's really obvious, right? When you have a higher time from key level, let's say this is your higher time from key level, you have the draw liquidity, these equal lows or whatnot.
08:04
Speaker A
So if you have a draw liquidity here, any move away from the draw liquidity, right, is to be viewed as what?
08:11
Speaker A
Retracement/reversal. So this is when it's really obvious to anticipate is we have a clear key level.
08:17
Speaker A
Price is moving opposite directions, but we know that this should be used to manipulate price to basically reverse price. This is where we can actually trade this decoupling move. This is when it comes or when it's really obvious,
08:28
Speaker A
right? We have a clear framework. Maybe both assets open high first, right? Creating the higher sent from wick.
08:35
Speaker A
This key level would reverse that wick, creating that reversal candle. This becomes really obvious, right? Um, and you could actually trade this to couple.
08:48
Speaker A
time frame PSP. Wait for that two-stage PSP. As you can see, these two candles are basically closing expansion candles opposite directions. Wait for this asset to actually reverse creating a C2 candle. That's going to trade this asset. Okay.
09:04
Speaker A
Now, we're going to go to decoupling anticipation, right? Um, which we can anticipate. Um, [clears throat] and this is one ways, right? So the first step is obviously going to be treading into a key level and creating SMT.
09:23
Speaker A
Now whenever you if you're ever confused if assets are, you know, um expanding in opposite directions, right, this is an easy way to kind of um know which way the true reversal is happening at, right? So here you can see
09:42
Speaker A
that this asset had already manipulated right and if it is in the form of like advanced pre discount or already in decoupled uh way as far as premium discount right and you see the asset that manipulated first starts to expand
09:57
Speaker A
away like this right uh after hitting a key level like a higher sent from key level you can actually trade this move you can trade this to couple move right do not want to trade this asset right this is the coupling in the form of a
10:10
Speaker A
strength switch where after you know this asset manipulated that was showing strength then starts to expand right away from that and this asset starts to trade back towards that draw liquidity but really this is the creation of a
10:24
Speaker A
strength switch PSP right strength switch PSP as you can see that's what the this is the creation of right now if you want to trade this lagging asset or even this asset too you would just trade the C2 candle here
10:37
Speaker A
right or the C3 here right but if you wanted to trade that C3 or sorry that uh C2 here the first uh beginning stages of the decoupling right we shouldn't be confused if you have a clear framework right
10:52
Speaker A
now here is decoupling um anticipation for continuation right now you need to have price coming off of an established reversal right so here you can see we have some form of reversal right both markets It's expanding away. This asset
11:12
Speaker A
hits the leading draw. And if you see the same thing where markets are expanding opposite directions, right? It's literally the same thing here. They're expanding opposite directions. But what's the difference here, right? There's no reversal down here. This asset hits a
11:26
Speaker A
key level. Then you get the decoupling difference over here. We are coming off of a uh established reversal. And this asset hit the draw liquidity. Now we we already know from my assets part one.
11:38
Speaker A
Why would already start to trust or or sorry, not trust this SMT up here, right? Because what is both assets doing, right? They're both expanding. We have to draw liquidity, right? They're both showing signs of reversal. This ass
11:52
Speaker A
is already in like deep premium of this range, right? What's the difference over here? This asset is on EQ, right? So, we already know that this likely should not hold or um this S&T will likely hold, right? Um so, there's the differences
12:06
Speaker A
there, right? We're not going to trade this asset here. Why would we not have to trade this a coupling move? Because it didn't hit a key level yet, right?
12:11
Speaker A
What key level do we hit? We always need a key level, guys. So, the way you're going to trade this is this two-stage PSP essentially, right? That's going to create a gap, which would be a strength switch SMT fill, right? So, you
12:26
Speaker A
shouldn't be confused when you see this move like this happen, right? So, another way this can look is we've all seen this uh here, right? where one asset manipulates, right, and starts to expand away and the asset that
12:42
Speaker A
originally was weaker then switches stronger, right? This is the coupling move here. Then you would just simply trade like this is what it would look like really on a higher time frame. This would be one solid bullish candle. This would be
12:54
Speaker A
one solid bearish candle. You would just trade the next candle lower. All right. Now, when we actually apply this on the charts, this is what it will really look like, right? you need a higher typical key level if you're going to trade a a
13:09
Speaker A
decoupled market in the form of a reversal or creating reversal, right? So, this is where the markets might, you know, form that strength switch where we would um create an SMT and then expand away. Well, this asset expands back
13:24
Speaker A
towards that, right? So, here you're creating a um strenuous PSP, right? So, you can actually trade this this this uh decoupled move if you wanted to, right?
13:34
Speaker A
after we create that reversal, right? So, it has to be at a key level, a relevant level or whatnot, right? Um, at the reversal, this is how you can trade it. Now, in continuation, remember, if you have a draw liquidity, it's it's
13:47
Speaker A
literally as simple as this. Any move away from the draw liquidity is viewed as what? Retracement/reversal, right? Um, all you're waiting for is price to trade into a key level to basically get back on side of the expansion. So, what can that key level
14:02
Speaker A
be? a relevant low or a gap. Right? So, as you can see here, this asset moves lower, this asset moves higher. This is what I'm talking about with that forcing distribution or whatnot. This asset expands to draw liquidity. This asset
14:16
Speaker A
expands away from it. Once you hit that key level, this is where we want to price to reync, right? So, here's that PSP. What do you wait for? This candle to open up. You're b essentially waiting for um this low to run out, right?
14:31
Speaker A
That's pretty much it for the decoupling, right? So, if you go into some examples here, let's go on to the daily chart over here.
14:44
Speaker A
So, if you look over here, check this low out right here. It does not get taken. That low does get taken over here. Whoops.
14:55
Speaker A
creating a crack and correlation in the form of advanced premium discount. So now you have a a higher time frame framework, right? So we know that our draw liquidity will be what the opposing side of that cracking correlation or
15:14
Speaker A
manipulation. So any move away from this high should be the asset that is the fake move that's retracing slash um reversing just to go higher. Right? So if you look here if this will play right check this out. You can see at
15:34
Speaker A
9:00 which nine times out of 10 is where the decoupling happens. It's at 9:30 actually is typically when the decoupling actually happens. So if you look here, if I just view price, this 90-minute candle, you can see that YM
15:49
Speaker A
over here is expanding aggressively higher towards that draw liquidity, right? Failing to manipulate any highs to the left, totally ignoring that, right? This asset is moving lower. What is it moving lower to do? To create SMT essentially, right? You can see the SMT here.
16:11
Speaker A
Now, what are you going to wait for? is this 9:00 a.m. candle to close, right?
16:16
Speaker A
And what is that going to create? Always typically a two-stage PSP normally. And this is where we would look to get on side towards right now. If I look at the 6-hour candle, you can even see this uh the same thing,
16:30
Speaker A
right? Really, if I just view the 6-hour candle, it's pretty simple to see this asset spanning lower away from the overall draw liquidity. This asset expend towards the draw liquidity.
16:40
Speaker A
whether you wait for 12:00 to open up. This is where quarterly alignment comes in. Um, that's what you would look to trade, right? So, here is 12:00 right here. What do you want to see? Ideally, a strength switch.
16:56
Speaker A
That's what you get right here. So, that's where you'd be looking to trade this asset as a lagging asset.
17:01
Speaker A
What do we create here? Equal equal highs. [clears throat] We start to consolidate. We create an inside bar.
17:11
Speaker A
As you can see price inside boring between one candle. This low, this low of this PSP is a gap, right? So what are you obviously this is going to be a retracement, right? This move lower. You can kind of see this
17:27
Speaker A
move lower on the 90m minute. You can see this this candle is moving lower.
17:31
Speaker A
This is spinning higher. So we know obviously this move lower is just a fake move, right? And we're just waiting for this candle to open up. We need a key level to get back on side with the expansion. And that's where you create
17:45
Speaker A
this two-stage PSP [clears throat] or two-stage SMT fill is really what it is. But yeah, that's a great example here.
17:54
Speaker A
Does anyone have any questions so far? [clears throat] Why is the chat so much right now? Did you like time people up?
18:07
Speaker A
So sometimes the couple move market is confusing to get on real set of strings which how do you so it the coupling is complete useless if you have no framework right if you have no higher separate key level you have no higher
18:20
Speaker A
time frame universal model then you know you have no draw liquidity essentially right so how do you know what's the you know what's the real move you just don't right that's when it becomes useless that's when this concept is useless
18:33
Speaker A
really so now let's go to another example. [clears throat] So here we go. This is uh last week. So and this is uh that example of a a strength switch happening. So let's go over here. So look at the overnight
18:53
Speaker A
move. This asset here pretty much came off of expansion the the previous day, right? count the expansion the previous day and then overnight we pretty much retraced while this asset here on YM we pretty much uh just expanded right so
19:12
Speaker A
one asset is retracing one asset is expanding so they're decoupled in terms of premium and discount essentially right where this asset is way above the current high of day over here look at the current high of day at 2000 it's
19:26
Speaker A
pretty much below it this ass is way above that same high look right here right so obviously this asset has failed to manipulate that level there. This asset is already putting in a continuation signature, right? Because it's expanding clear retracement
19:39
Speaker A
signature right here, right? So, it's pretty obvious that even this asset that is weakest in the whole triad is still putting in a continuation signature. So, that's good, right? So, this move lower right here is simply a strength switch. That's what
19:56
Speaker A
it should be viewed as because if we're bullish, right, a move lower is what it's just used as retracement/reversal, right? [snorts] So, obviously, this asset closes an expansion candle. So, what do you want to wait for this manipulation? So, this is what I
20:12
Speaker A
actually traded. This is why I traded YM um on Thursday last week. [snorts] If you if anyone confused, I actually woke up late as well. Uh I think I traded at 9:30 or 10:30.
20:26
Speaker A
All right. So, here's 1030. This is what I ended up trading right here. So, anyone confused about that? And here you [snorts] go. Here's the shrink switch.
20:34
Speaker A
This is what you ideally want that lagging asset. You want the strength switch especially when it's in the form of advanced premium discount like this guys. If it's in the form of advanced premium discount like this [clears throat] or just in the form of
20:49
Speaker A
like clear decoupling like this, you really want that, right? But this is technically in the form of advanced pre discount. But where's my example? Here, even like right here, you ideally, if you want to trade this asset here, you
21:02
Speaker A
really do want that to happen. Um, and you really need to wait to time it, right? You need to wait for these higher separate candles to close. This is where this comes in, right? It's going to create that PSP. You really need to wait
21:13
Speaker A
for that to to uh close and the new count to open to manipulate. doesn't always have to manipulate like right here. [clears throat] Actually didn't even manipulate or at least the 90-minut didn't doesn't have to necessarily. We just
21:31
Speaker A
want that candle to be used uh to expand, right? You can see that inside of this wick here there is a strength switch. So that's why it doesn't manipulate, right? But yeah, you don't always need it to manipulate. Um but that's why this
21:44
Speaker A
this case it did not, right? But as you can see, the strength switch happens, which the strength switch is the decoupling move. That's the thing, right? So, we don't necessarily need to confirm a decoupling or like this decoupling move with a strength switch
22:01
Speaker A
like this lagging asset because it is a strength switch already. It just happens naturally, right? Where this asset just closes an uh expansion candle. For example, if this candle closed as a reversal candle, like a bearish reversal candle, and we didn't have to manipulate
22:16
Speaker A
this low, then we wouldn't need it. You wouldn't need the u the strength switch, okay? Because this move is a strength switch in itself. Does that kind of make sense? Um so here's an example. The price moving opposite directions. It's
22:30
Speaker A
just a string switch. Right now, here's another example. Let's go um on ES to show you this.
22:41
Speaker A
[clears throat] This is a really clean price action here. So you can see that we have a two-stage like this.
22:55
Speaker A
We drop lower. You see this uh Monday candle is a um bullish reversal candle.
23:07
Speaker A
this asset actually comes back into this PSPC2 and actually manipulates it. So you have a two-stage SMT here.
23:17
Speaker A
So essentially your universal model is what internal to external. So this is drawn liquidity. So any move lower if you see the coupling away from this draw liquidity what is that to be used for?
23:28
Speaker A
Probably a retracement reversal right? So if you see this here, [cough] [clears throat] I need some water, dude.
23:39
Speaker A
Uh hold on. So if you look at this here, this becomes really easy to identify which asset is the um lagging asset, which asset is the leading asset. So look at this here. Opposite directions, expanding opposite directions. This is a
23:55
Speaker A
decoupled move. Although it's short-lived, right? It's simply just used to manipulate, right? Right? What is it retracing to this gap?
24:05
Speaker A
What is it creating? A a PSP, right? These assets are expanding in opposite directions, right? So, this is simply just used as a retracement as it is trading away from the overall draw liquidity. Dude, I need water. Oh my
24:22
Speaker A
god, my voice is like going out, bro. As you can see, price expands after that. I actually traded this as well a long time ago. This is a in 2024.
24:35
Speaker A
Yeah, absolutely beautiful. You can see this clear draw liquidity here as well where this asset had already failed to manipulate it.
24:44
Speaker A
You can also use like context screws like that, right? Look at this asset here. It already failed to manipulate it. Let's use advanced premium discount.
24:52
Speaker A
Where is this asset at? Way basically creating equal highs, right? So we know any move lower should be just used as a um retracement rate. So we shouldn't be getting confused. For example, like if this happened here, let's say this asset got to this high
25:11
Speaker A
here, create an SMT. We're not going to be shorting this guys, right? So it's really important to understand this. So any questions?
25:23
Speaker A
I'll be right back. Put some questions in the chat. Let me get a drink.
25:30
Speaker A
[clears throat] All right, I'm back. [clears throat] So, you wouldn't need to see a string switch in that example to treat the leg asset since the leader failed to manipulate. Um, yeah, exactly. It's the same thing as my last uh YouTube video,
26:23
Speaker A
right? If that leading asset fails to manipulate and you you're coming off of a reversal, right? Both expand away. You don't need a string switch if it fails to mitate.
26:35
Speaker A
Now if you are coming off of a reversal though like this example here uh right here if you want to trade this asset here you ideally do want you do want to shrink switch ideally like the actual reversal itself
26:57
Speaker A
manipulating is this the same for uh oh I don't know Bro, I would assume so. I don't look at the I don't even know what that is.
27:11
Speaker A
Those markets, Drake or Kendrick. I'm going to say Drake. Although, I'm not the biggest fan of his new album.
27:21
Speaker A
If we just have two stage and continuation, but no gaps. No, you need a key level, bro. You need a key level every time you take a trade, reversal or continuation.
27:33
Speaker A
Uh you see you use inq. Uh that is because that's where the cracking correlations happen between INQ and YM.
27:43
Speaker A
ES is like a middle asset. You can legit just look honestly dude. You could probably just look at INQ and uh YM and be fine. Like literally that's how I trade. Like if YM is looking like like absolute trash, but
28:00
Speaker A
ENQ and ES look good, I will not trade ENQ. I'm strict on that. This is you really want all assets moving you all you want all assets like synergize all moving the same direction or at least all set to reverse. If one if these two
28:16
Speaker A
assets are set to reverse but the third asset is not, that's not um high probable to me.
28:25
Speaker A
If we hit a key level had string switch and your P A I don't know what you're I don't know what that I'm trying to figure out the spelling error there.
28:39
Speaker A
I don't know. Can you share details of the mentorship program? Um, well, I'm starting at putting out here [clears throat] July 1st, right? Um, it's going to be like normal or like all the other mentorships you see out there,
29:08
Speaker A
right? As far as pricing, pretty close to that. Um, they'll have a A through Z course. So, that's kind of been the problem with GXT, learning GXT, like in a lens even. I just had the basic GXC course, right? So, it was kind of hard
29:23
Speaker A
to learn. Like even I could admit it probably hard to learn. Too many streams to go over and whatnot. But now there's going to be a through Z course. Like I'm talking beginner like what is a fair value gap all the way to like every like
29:35
Speaker A
whatever it is advanced, right? Advanced premium discount all that stuff, you know, A through Z, right? So going to be a very detailed course. Um, and there will obvious be live trading u, and a couple of features that no other
29:52
Speaker A
really uh community has. So, that' be pretty cool. But I will not stop posting it here, guys. So, no worries. If you guys can't afford it, uh, don't worry. I'm going to be still posting recaps, doing streams, YouTube videos. It's just for extra
30:11
Speaker A
guidance. We should Okay, already went over that. So, make sure you at me. We are looking for all the S S&T and PSP inside 64 candles, right? Um, well, price is always going to be within one of those
30:35
Speaker A
candles at all times, right? Um, so it's essentially just this. you're just looking for SMTs and PSPs at relevant levels, right? So, for example, maybe here's the daily open, right? When you hit a key level and create SMT,
30:58
Speaker A
you're going to ask yourself, you know, with the inside of the current 4 hour or six hour candle, does it support expansion? Does it have that small wick? If it doesn't, you need to wait for price to close. So maybe this
31:12
Speaker A
is the 6 hour interval or the 4 hour interval. Wait for it to close and then you can trade that next uh time window, right? Because then it can support expansion, create that small wick to expand because essentially what the
31:25
Speaker A
logic is, if the candle doesn't support expansion, then it can't expand away. It can maybe reverse, right? Creating a C2 candle, but it can't expand. We want to trade expansion, right? Okay, so we want to be in a time window that can expand,
31:38
Speaker A
right? Um, and by that time when price closes, the closure itself creates candle closures, which creates PSPs, which is like your second stage SMT. Um, so you might get that on the higher side from candle close itself. So the 6 hour
31:53
Speaker A
or 4 hour candle close itself, right? But if you're trading a candle that does support expansion, so we hit a key level, maybe this is the opening price, right? It hits the key level, it has a small wick, then you're going to confirm
32:12
Speaker A
that 4 hour, 6 hour low, that small wick with a lower time frame PSP, right?
32:18
Speaker A
That's going to be your second stage SMT, right? Does that kind of make sense?
32:25
Speaker A
[clears throat] If we strength switch then switch back. So you're always going to usually trade the asset that is typically closest to the draw liquidity.
32:44
Speaker A
Um that's it's as simple as that. Like it doesn't matter if it's string switching back stronger. It typically does not matter. They're typically going to hit the same draw liquidity, but um yeah, the one that's closest you typically want to trade.
33:01
Speaker A
Does a coupling only happen on indices for the most part, but not not necessarily. They happen on all assets, but you're going to see it mostly in indices and typically around the bell.
33:11
Speaker A
So 9:30. And also this will be in my part two, guys. So, I didn't go into too much detail, right? But if a uh basically a decoupling move is like overextended where you don't see any reync throughout the whole day, who knows what that
33:32
Speaker A
creates? Anyone know? It's pretty obvious. Yeah. Daily PSP. Yep. So, the next day would reync the market. [clears throat] I think the most confusing uh part for me is when you wait for a higher temperature candle or when you fade it.
34:03
Speaker A
Like last week you faded uh a candle because it had a strength switch but then the next day also you had a strength switch but you waited. Okay, it's pretty simple how to trade a reversal candle.
34:15
Speaker A
So to trade a reversal candle like a 4 hour a 6h hour right we'll just go with 4 hour. So I'm basically trading the reversal profile right or or the low of the day essentially if you're fading a candle
34:29
Speaker A
always typically. Um, so that's when we have to do the regular things, right? We have to create SMT with the key level, right? Uh, and you have to have the two-stage SMT or whatnot. But let's say the opening price of that that 4 candle
34:45
Speaker A
is all the way up here, right? It's like all the way up here, right? So naturally, there's not enough time or or Yeah, there's just not enough time to expand within this candle, right? There's just not enough time. So
34:59
Speaker A
typically you can have two options, right? You can wait for the candle to close to create like a reversal candle or whatnot. Then you just trade the next candle, right? Um or you can trade this reversal candle. You're basically
35:10
Speaker A
trading the wick of that 4hour candle. And if it hits a key level, right? If it has two-stage SMT, I mean, you're pretty much you're pretty much anticipating that this candle is going to close a wick, right? And I
35:24
Speaker A
already talked about how to trade these reversal candles, right? You're going to mark out the opening price of the reversal candle in the reversal of the reversal candle. And ideally, you want to position yourself in the lower half
35:36
Speaker A
of that wick, right? Imagine this. This would be the wick, right? And anything above that would be the body. But we know with a large wick, it can it can only create a small body at best, right?
35:48
Speaker A
But we don't know where it's going to close, right? It might close down here, right? We don't know where it's going to close. So that's why you want to enter as low as possible, right? at the very reversal. But you still need think you
35:59
Speaker A
still need these things to to happen, right? The only way you can anticipate reversal kind of forming is if the profile supports it, the daily profile, a key level, a relevant key level, and the two-stage confirmations, right? And
36:11
Speaker A
if you have the strength switch there, I mean, that's just like the highest probable confirmation you can get. So, yeah, I I'm going to trade that there, right? Does that kind of make sense? And I'm not anticipating that price is going
36:22
Speaker A
to just rip in this time window. But I assume that's going to create the reversal in the next time window, right? If it opens here, maybe that's when it's going to truly like continue basically. But I'm already in I'm
36:38
Speaker A
anticipating this reversal because we have everything there. Does that kind of make sense? It's a little advanced. It's not something you have to do though.
36:49
Speaker A
And [clears throat] if there is no reversal in that time window, well then that's when you probably need to wait for the next candle, right? It's it's really as simple as that.
37:00
Speaker A
Cuz maybe maybe you know it's creating a PSP or something. Maybe this is a maybe this this candle here maybe it did hit a key level but there's no like two stage confirmation or whatnot. So wait for the closure. Maybe
37:16
Speaker A
it's waiting for the next time window, right, to sweep out this candle's low, create a two-stage PSP, etc.
37:27
Speaker A
Win gap alignment. I pretty much have all the the slides done for that, but I'm trying to if I'm going to release YouTube video, I need to do accessing part two. Uh because it needs to be in order probably.
37:45
Speaker A
Repeat that one more time. I don't know what you want me to repeat. When you use YM every single trade, for example, SMT at daily low gives us a draw um to daily high. Afterwards, SMT with H4 high gives us draw to 4 low.
38:15
Speaker A
What do I don't understand that honestly I need example there. When would you post SC part two? Um I have like Okay, so here's the reason why it's taking so long is I was going to add a lot more to it, but it's honestly
38:34
Speaker A
the way I was doing it is kind of useless cuz I it's like I don't know explain it, bro. Basically this bro you see this example right here. So what what I was going to go over in S part
38:47
Speaker A
two is SMT break for reversal advanced period discount into coupling right but then I was going to mark out like this.
38:55
Speaker A
So you see like how I basically have a real chart sample but just with Figma candles, right? I was going to do this for every single type or variant of each category. And that was Dude, it was taking so long.
39:10
Speaker A
I mean, I'm just not it's it's just I'm not doing that. So, I'm just going to do probably like I'm probably just going to show those those examples in actual like real chart examples. I don't know what I
39:22
Speaker A
was doing. Like I don't know I was doing this when I could just show it in real chart examples and save the time. So that that's why I was taking so long, dude. Really? But I don't know. I'll
39:31
Speaker A
probably just do like this. But I I do want like some examples like this though, but I just don't know which ones to cover. I can't do it for all of them. This is going to take too long. I mean, the video would
39:43
Speaker A
be like two hours long, bro. It's just about structuring a video, guys. It's so annoying, man. It really is. It's really hard. Honestly, might seem easy, but it's a [ __ ] What time would you avoid trading metals? Probably PM session most of the
40:02
Speaker A
time. Um, but really if if the previous session expanded um or the daily candle already expanded like that's just in general when I would most of the time avoid trading unless you get a significant retracements or this just a drawing open in close
40:22
Speaker A
proximity or something like that. [sighs] What is fading a c a higher candle is basically you trading a reversal candle right so if you are with you're always going to be within a higher candle right if if uh price
40:43
Speaker A
hits a key level right but the higher temper candle looks like this like it's at a bearish expansion candle right then obviously this candle here does not support expansion to the upside because the only thing it could do at
41:00
Speaker A
the very best is close with a very large wick like this or something like that, right? With a small body, right? Because price expanded very very far away from its opening price, right? So you fading a candle would actually be trading this
41:14
Speaker A
candle here, right? So when you say you don't really want to fade candles, you don't really want to do it. But if you are, you're basically anticipating that the candle is going to close somewhat like like this, right?
41:28
Speaker A
Maybe with a very large wick or, you know, a very small body to the upside, right? Something like that, right? But you're basically anticipating it to actually form a reversal candle, right?
41:40
Speaker A
But for beginners, I wouldn't even worry about it. Can you recap phase of price? I have a video on TJ's channel on that, but I'll probably redo that video uh on phase of price. Just like a video dedicated to only phase of
42:08
Speaker A
price because you can get pretty detailed with it. If metals isn't going the same direction indices, uh, would you trade it or no? It's more of like a confluence. So, it's kind of the same thing, right? So, as far as like that
42:24
Speaker A
term foreseen distribution, right? It's where one assets making the room move. So if you look here like you can see that's this is what I use for my kind of like my bias on uh met or not metals indices. What am I
42:43
Speaker A
doing here? So check this out. These assets here were were basically bullish the previous day. Look at metals though throughout the whole week pretty much or the last three days it's been expanding lower. But look at silver.
42:59
Speaker A
Silver finally started to really expand. Look at that huge move lower, right? And look at the previous day on oil. The previous day on oil closed bullish and actually created a strength switch PSP here. So what you have advanced premium
43:15
Speaker A
discount with the current week low. You'll learn this in my advanced premium discount video or my asset bar 2. I go over advanced premium discount. But essentially the range that we're using, right, the manipulation of the range low
43:27
Speaker A
that we're using is actually the current week's low. So here's Monday's low and it closes bullish. This asset here does not take out Monday's low and closes bearish. So there's your strength switch. And this asset here did not take
43:40
Speaker A
out Monday's low and is an EQ of the range. So there's your advanced pre discount, right? Like this.
43:48
Speaker A
And obviously the strength is PSP. So metals already started to move lower the previous day. Right? On indices, no, none of the assets reverses. They didn't reverse at all. Right? But on oil, they did. You see this? So, uh, metals
44:04
Speaker A
already started to move lower. These assets just reversed. So, oil just reversed. So, what does that tell you?
44:11
Speaker A
That probably we're going to continue on on metals lower and oil is going to start moving higher. Right? So now you have these assets kind of synchronized these assets and this asset over here is the like the most lagging assets
44:27
Speaker A
essentially right which it just straight up expands lower which I wish it like manipulated first that would be a lot nicer but when they start to expand heavily and whatnot now you know why essentially it's like a little
44:41
Speaker A
confluence that's all it is does that kind of make sense also if you look here guys if if on my trade on Friday, we can also decipher um which asset is likely the one that is um manipulating slash retracing,
45:04
Speaker A
you know, with what's aligned with the daily candle, right? Or the daily profile. So, look at the daily candle right now. You see how far we have expanded away from the daily open. So obviously this candle cannot be a
45:18
Speaker A
bullish expansion candle, right? But it also can't really be it's unlikely to be a reversal candle as well. So why is it unlikely to be a reversal candle is because it didn't really hit anything.
45:29
Speaker A
So look right here. We just left these equal lows. You guys see this on all assets. We left these all these equal lows. So this move higher is probably a retracement, right? Because it's fading the daily candle. It's coming back
45:44
Speaker A
towards the daily open where the price has expanded very far away from the daily open. So it has that large wick, right? So we come back higher.
45:52
Speaker A
What do we want to see? A key level to cap off the retracement, right? We're using context clues on why this is probably retracement. This the coupling move. Look at this asset here is expanding slash retracing. This asset is
46:06
Speaker A
just consolidating, right? So it's not really decoupling, but it is in the same in the same way. they're just not expanding opposite directions. Um but we can get the coupling in that way too, right? In terms of premium and discount
46:20
Speaker A
where one asset is not really moving, one asset is moving, right? Um in this case, they're just both uh continuation signatures. This assets retracing, this asset is just not doing anything, right?
46:33
Speaker A
Um and obviously we know that what are we going to wait for, guys? Is that closure, right? Just have to go back to here. We're going to wait for this.
46:44
Speaker A
Right? So, here would be NQ essentially. This would be NQ. What are we waiting for? This candle to open. Wait for that manipulation. Right? This case is a bullish example on Friday. Obviously, it's a bearish example. So, you're
46:57
Speaker A
waiting for 1400 to open up to create that two-stage PSP. Right? At that point, at 1400 open, we have not even hit a key level yet. So this two-stage PSP is basically opening high into a key level, right? But it's also
47:14
Speaker A
simultaneously creating that two-stage PSP, right? So pretty simple, that's when we can trade this, right?
47:22
Speaker A
And since none of the assets hit the draw liquidity, look how none of the assets hit the draw liquidity, right? Um I'm expecting them both to expand. I don't need a strength switch here. You don't need it. What do we If you don't
47:33
Speaker A
have a strength switch, guys, you just simply want all assets to reverse. Look how all assets are reversing here.
47:38
Speaker A
They're all V-shaping away, right? You're pretty much good to go, right? Um, but it's not wrong to trade this asset necessarily. Do you see the range here, though? This is kind of the issue here for me. The RR here is just not the
47:54
Speaker A
greatest. And this asset here, much more room. It's that's literally the only reason, guys. It's not necessarily wrong to go with YM, though.
48:06
Speaker A
But this asset just didn't reach the draw liquidity. But even without it reaching draw liquidity, you essentially get more RR.
48:16
Speaker A
Yeah, that's a way to decipher also which asset is the the asset that's actually manipulating, right?
48:25
Speaker A
Is going with the daily profile and just looking at overall context, right? This low is this this low coming off of anything relevant? No. If if a low is put in the market after an expansion, it didn't hit anything. There's no cracking
48:38
Speaker A
correlation, nothing like that. It's probably just used as retracement. What is the best for wait what would be the best Forex approach? Like this will not properly there. Uh are you saying like this is not going to properly work
48:54
Speaker A
on Forex? Uh you probably won't see it as much on Forex. Like really? I I honestly couldn't tell you though because I don't actually trade forex.
49:07
Speaker A
So I I couldn't tell you, bro. I have a question about qualifying two-stage PSPs. On Thursday's review, you said you can only trade two or I see two two stage PSP only if it closes back and it's open. Um, yep. What if it
49:23
Speaker A
easily Oh, what is the easiest way to tell if that happened? It's a matter of dropping.
49:31
Speaker A
Um, hold on. Thursday you said you can only trade a C2 stage PC only if it closes back at its open. So, are you saying like um I don't know if I understand this question. I don't know if you're talking
49:49
Speaker A
about like how to anticipate a two-stage or um how to anticipate a a PSP not closing C2 two-stage PSP if it closes back. But I don't understand because if you're trading a two-stage PSP, what do you mean by it
50:11
Speaker A
closing back? You're like you're not waiting for the close. I'm going to need like a example or something.
50:21
Speaker A
How to avoid getting caught um in overexited markets. Oh, it's really easy, right? It never trade it like this. Uh so, a lot I see a lot of people do this.
50:33
Speaker A
A lot of people do this. So, here's a draw liquidity, right? And the next draw liquidity is really far away. A lot of people do this, bro.
50:42
Speaker A
Will they price will hit this like relevant level? Maybe the daily opens like right here or like whatever maybe like right here. So the daily candle already extended and they look to trade this like these moves here which are
50:54
Speaker A
like they're pretty low probability. I would wait for like if you're going to trade this kind of stuff where like you just continue to trade expansion candle and the next strong liquidity is like um really far away or out of the reach.
51:06
Speaker A
It's just like lower probability. These trades are automatically lower probability. I'm not saying you can't trade them, but they're like uh less probable obviously, right? Cuz you're just trading like the the high of day really. And you're just you're just
51:20
Speaker A
basically uh TPing at the current high of day like over and over, right? TP current high day, TP current day. They're just lower bubbles. What the highest bubble trades look like is you coming off a reversal, you have a draw liquidity
51:36
Speaker A
and um like that's your draw. like the the actual opposing draw, right? So maybe this is your high time frame reversal. This is your high temper draw liquidity. Maybe you have an internal level like teping at these areas are the
51:49
Speaker A
highest probable uh levels, right? Um and it's also when the daily candle hasn't even expanded like really, right?
51:57
Speaker A
So for example, like in the protraction phase. So the daily like opens low first into that key level. Trading when the daily candle hasn't even expanded yet is the best, right? um or haven't hasn't even hit a draw liquidity yet because
52:09
Speaker A
when you hit a level like this right we can endure a new phase of price. So you trying to enter like a fair value gap like really high in the range really low probable right the these reversal here
52:21
Speaker A
to draw liquidity here the the highest probable trades right so basically models inside of models right so this daily open right here try to draw this the best right this is the universal sequence this is really high probable right draw
52:38
Speaker A
liquidity on your way to like an overall draw liquidity that's a model inside a model internal to external Right? You want to be getting in here, right before we even reach this draw, not chasing price like up here. That's essentially
52:51
Speaker A
the same thing I just showed you. If you're trying to do that, it's the same thing as doing this really. Like you're like trying to long above a high, right?
52:59
Speaker A
These are like low probable things. Although they can work sometimes, it's just generally greater lower probability.
53:07
Speaker A
Like this is a model inside of a model, right? You have a a clear draw liquidity. you have a key level to get to that draw liquidity. Not like something like this where we take out the draw, right?
53:20
Speaker A
Or maybe maybe this low like wasn't here or maybe it's like way down here or something, right? Maybe the extra liquidity is like really far away like just trading like these models like this like you only have at this point you're
53:34
Speaker A
only trading like a universal model like internal to external where the daily candle is already expanded, right?
53:40
Speaker A
You're not really trading a model inside a model. A model inside a model is the best framework you can have. That's what I'm trying to say here.
53:51
Speaker A
And you really just want to trade when a drone liquidity is in close proximity or a lagging asset um to the same drone liquidity maybe the leading asset failed to reverse from. That's also acceptable.
54:10
Speaker A
Will you ever trade a C2 reversal into expansion candle from a low or high manipulation on the 15-minute or just the uh 30 minute or 1 hour? Um yeah, you can uh in continuation like intraday continuation, but I wouldn't do it at
54:25
Speaker A
the low of day or high of day. Probably I have to fade it, but I'm wondering when you will uh choose to wait. I think I went over that, right?
54:43
Speaker A
Like simply if it has a reversal like a reversal confirmation and there's not enough time, that's another thing. You don't want there to be a lot of time left in that candle. So if it's a 4hour candle, um trading within that time
54:57
Speaker A
window like 9:30 to like 10 o'clock is good to trade a reversal candle, the 6 a.m. reversal candle. That's fine typically if you're pairing like a re a driver or something like that. Um, but yeah, typically at the the very end of a
55:10
Speaker A
reversal candle, you don't want there to be a ton of time left because like if there's a ton of time left in a reversal candle, let's say, uh, you know, ton of ton of time left in the reversal candle, if
55:24
Speaker A
you're going to trade that, you better TP pretty close to the open or something like that because, you know, when you get up here or whatever, it's like if you have like two hours, 3 hours left, it's not just going to expand at 3
55:35
Speaker A
hours. it's probably just going to [ __ ] Just wait for the next time window. Does that kind of make sense?
55:39
Speaker A
So, ideally, you just want there to be um a little bit of time left because you know if there's a little bit of time left, that next candle is going to open very soon. Then expansion can happen, right? That's typically how you want to
55:52
Speaker A
do it. So when you upload every videos together, are you talking about for the mentorship? No, it's it's all going to be uploaded at once. Like when you when you get the um mentorship, it's a throughz course already uploaded.
56:27
Speaker A
If the current candle just opened, but it has a large wick early. Can I trade it? Uh, I think I just went over that.
56:34
Speaker A
So, if you do, you really want to TP like um because sometimes you're going to see this happen, bro, where it does open like maybe it does create that low like really early on, but there's a huge wick, right? It could do this towards
56:52
Speaker A
your draw liquidity or whatever. Maybe your drawing is like right here, but holding it past this probably not a good idea because it's just it just can't it's going to have a really hard time expanding beyond the opening price or
57:03
Speaker A
sorry, here' be the opening price. Um, so it's kind of like a delayed protraction profile where I tell you guys if you're going to trade a delayed protraction profile, you want to be tping at the current high of the day or
57:14
Speaker A
current low of day because there just not enough um time left in that candle because it literally forms a low like late in the day. Here's kind of the same concept here.
57:28
Speaker A
You're like teeping around the opening or when you're just fading like a overall, you know, expansion candle or reversal candle. Sorry.
57:38
Speaker A
Do we enter uh just only expansion candles? Ideally, yes. If you're newer, just trade expansion candles bro.
57:54
Speaker A
How much new should be? It's going to be the around the same prices as you know other um whatchamacallit mentorships. But I will say there is going to be a cheap option for people as well. Well, you won't get everything but
58:15
Speaker A
there will be a cheap option for you guys. um that don't include course content.
58:23
Speaker A
I'll just say that. [sighs] How do you [clears throat] know? Oh, the Okay, hold on. Let's go back to this.
58:36
Speaker A
Uh Wednesday, Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday. All right. So, this is a strength switch PSP. I know for a fact that this move here, this move here is probably a retracement, right? Because why? It just this high right here didn't hit
59:04
Speaker A
anything. It didn't create SMT. So, this move lower probably retracement. If we're not going to continue from like one of these gaps, you're going to trade into like maybe a low of the range. So, if you're not going to continue from
59:18
Speaker A
this range, you see this range here, this bullish range, you got to manipulate the range low essentially, right? So, that's what price does.
59:26
Speaker A
YM, it's all the way up here. It looks really weird, but essentially SMT break.
59:31
Speaker A
You see when uh ES finally breaks that low, which I'll show you that real quick.
59:38
Speaker A
I have slides on this, too. You've probably all seen it, but this will be in my video as well. This would essentially be well, this would really be it right here.
59:52
Speaker A
This would pretty much be YM where it kind of fails to manipulate a draw liquidity. The middle asset again always going to be ES probably. uh that's when it actually breaks the SMT.
60:02
Speaker A
That's when price actually truly reverses. And this would be in Q actually holding the SMT, right? Um so if you look here, that's exactly what happens, right? ES breaks that low.
60:15
Speaker A
YM holds it. Doesn't matter if it's advanced pre discount or not. That is totally relevant with this specific um the specific um what did you call it?
60:24
Speaker A
Sequence or whatnot. Um you just need a two-stage SMT, right? Here you even have it in the terms of uh strength switching. This asset closes bullish.
60:36
Speaker A
This asset closes bearish. Right? So you're pretty much good to go, right? You have the the strength SMT. So since we had that, I'm pretty much very um like the strengths itself, that's like such a high probable thing that I really
60:53
Speaker A
like this, right? And if you look here, another reason why this is a good trade or why I trusted this essentially is because look at these assets here, they created the Vshape, right? And these were the assets that were uh actually
61:09
Speaker A
weaker before, right? They're actually V-shaping. Like if you look at these assets, they look fine. Like, right, they look pretty good. Like there's a SMT here, CSD. We're starting to react off of it. Um, so I this is why I
61:22
Speaker A
trusted this CST right here because that kind of makes sense. So the other assets looked good. I already know this is the overall stronger asset. So all assets were kind of aligned. They're trying to they're all going the same direction.
61:34
Speaker A
You're going to see that some weird [ __ ] happens. Like look at YM. I don't know why it did this. It starts to go bearish like really deep in this range without even manipulating this low. Super weird.
61:46
Speaker A
So press kind of goes to couple here. And this is where it just doesn't really make sense. Like the coupling you can't really use because yeah, it goes to coupled but like it doesn't hit anything, right? Like so you can't
61:57
Speaker A
really anticipate the the reync or nothing like that. I I wouldn't even want it to do this either because this PSP here is what you want to remain intact, which it technically does, but in a horrible way, like a really bad
62:12
Speaker A
way. Like you can't really do anything, right? Um, but o overall like you can't anticipate that happening obviously because I'm already in the trade. Like I'm in the trade right here. So essentially like we had a reversal.
62:26
Speaker A
All the other assets were expanding away, right? We had the CC. So that's why I pretty much trusted it, bro. That kind of makes sense.
62:37
Speaker A
Would you ever trade pre-driver anticipating coupling? I It's like really rare, bro. Like pre-driver trades in general are pretty rare, but [clears throat] you can do it. I've done it before, but it's like super rare, dude. Like, it really is. I
62:54
Speaker A
wouldn't even cons like worry about that [ __ ] dude. If he's shorter than uh most recent.
63:05
Speaker A
Yeah, I'm not sure, brother. Um I think this is simply Let me see. What day was this?
63:16
Speaker A
What day was this? Gold, gold, gold, gold. Oh, it's like right here or something.
63:31
Speaker A
1,800. I think it just close draw. Maybe this asset already hit the draw. It looks like probably some type of string switch or something. I don't know.
63:50
Speaker A
1900 high of the day. 1900. I don't know either. I'm not sure. You got to ask him.
63:58
Speaker A
I mean, this would probably be where price would continue from honestly. Like this the key level closest to the uh the opening price of the day. So, here's the opening price. This the only key level really. So, I mean, I guess it
64:13
Speaker A
could make sense. I personally don't use I don't use SMT like that though. Like, I don't use uh SMT like this, for example.
64:24
Speaker A
I don't use a SMT with consecutive candles like this to confirm a gap. Personally, if you had an amazing setup from 15-minute gap with a good draw and a V-shape but no SMT or PSP, do you take it? Um, yes. But it it really matters
64:47
Speaker A
what happens before the uh that 15-minute gap is created. So, I've done this before. So, I actually did this right here. I can remember. I can tell you which which one I did this. And people were like freaking out. But like
65:01
Speaker A
look here. Where was it, bro? I think it was like around here or something.
65:13
Speaker A
Maybe not. I don't I think it was right here. Yeah, I did it right like right here or something.
65:21
Speaker A
So this day, this might be a good example. I think at least um maybe there's no I think it's just a C2 candle or something. Yeah, it's really just a C2 candle, I guess.
65:37
Speaker A
And I think you go on the 4 hour time frame. There's like an SMT fill.
65:43
Speaker A
Okay. No, there's not. Maybe a PSP. This is a refined key level, right? So, you have a C2 candle, refined key level.
65:51
Speaker A
I'm trying to think if there's a some type of reversal up here. Uh like a PSP or something.
66:01
Speaker A
I guess not. Okay. Anyways, there's some type of uh confirmation to this, but this wouldn't be like the best example probably. I don't think there's a PSP here. I think it's on the 30 minute.
66:13
Speaker A
Yeah, it's like the 30 minute. It's like right here. Like this is a bullish candle. This is like bearish. Yeah. So it's simple like you want it to be like this really. So if we have a draw on liquidity let's say
66:27
Speaker A
here you have like your two stage ideally. So you're not two stage but and you expand away from that like that expansion away from the draw liquidity already to me confirms the draw right that that already confirms it really. So
66:41
Speaker A
when you cut a gap here, all assets maybe trade into the gap, but there's no like confir there's no like S&T in the gap or PSP, but there's a clear like reversal signature. Typically, it's still high probable, right? But
66:55
Speaker A
obviously what makes it more high probable is definitely like uh you know, if you have your S&Ts and whatnot, but if you have this like typically it's it's it's still fine. Okay. Um, but this is when I will sometimes take it, but
67:09
Speaker A
it's even better when you are trading still within a higher time frame swing point. So, for example, let's say here is the C2 candle or something.
67:21
Speaker A
You're trading C3, but if when you look inside that C2 candle, there's like a 15-minute gap or something.
67:28
Speaker A
So, right now, you're basically trading C3, but maybe there's no SMT or whatever. This is still completely fine to me if there's no SMT in this gap. This is a a really good framework if you don't have SMT or whatever, right? You're basically
67:43
Speaker A
trading in the C3 of a higher candle. Maybe this is a PSP or something or whatever. You have your confirmations like you you really don't need SMT here.
67:52
Speaker A
The only thing that matters is the the lower time frame continuation is inside of a higher time frame gap. That's the main that's the whole reason why I created this sequence, by the way. Um, but yeah, like here in this example,
68:08
Speaker A
you're going to see that there is technically no, where is it? 15 minute like later on. Or was it third? Oh, it's right here. I don't think there's a PSP at least.
68:23
Speaker A
I don't think there's a PSP if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, looks like no PSP.
68:28
Speaker A
The main thing here is like where is price retracing into, guys? It's It's tracing into EQ. It's like this is the only area it can continue from really. This another like reason like I didn't really care for it. Um we had like these nice
68:42
Speaker A
equal lows. I love this framework so much, dude. Like I've shown you guys this before. I think I deleted it. Yeah, I had it right here for an example, but I've shown you guys this before. This is like such a good framework, dude. When
68:54
Speaker A
you have like a key level, right? So technically this is your higher time frame internal to external all the way down here, right? But obviously there's going to be internal objectives, right? Um and it always this always happens either
69:11
Speaker A
with the overall drone liquidity or an internal objective where price expands away from that higher temp key level expands away without hitting either the internal objective or the overall objective and then starts to retrace right starts to retrace and it retraces
69:28
Speaker A
into a gap. So like you know for a fact that this is probably your retracement because it didn't hit the internal objective or the main objective. there's like maybe no SMT here whatever this like model instead of a model so
69:41
Speaker A
internal to external but you have an objective beyond that level is super high probable um so in this specific case this is a 50-minute one minute model I waited for there to be a continuation just because of that kind of lower
69:57
Speaker A
probable maybe no SMT whatnot clearly here dude you see a clear continuation signature like it's pretty clear as Okay. Vshape CSD here.
70:10
Speaker A
You even have like this gap here. Um I think I waited for uh this gap actually here even to make sure we were expanding. I don't exactly remember, but this ended up being really nice. I even held it all the way down
70:26
Speaker A
here. You're going to see the same thing happen here. By the way, it does the same [ __ ] I love when this happens, man. It's super good. So you see here it falls short of this low right and it creates a gap
70:40
Speaker A
again super high probable gap and also [clears throat] traded this. So I just love that framework. So if it's in the form of this where it has like these equal lows really good or maybe within a higher time frame swing point
70:55
Speaker A
like C3 or something really good as well. Um, either one of those I would say it's fine.
71:05
Speaker A
What's up, donuts? Check this please. Clear higher temperature liquidity. No. No trade. That can be fine. Um, yes.
71:18
Speaker A
Uh, four key. Yep. To basically form the low day. No. Okay. Yep. Yes. Expansion away from that key level. So maybe put like expansion candle alignment away from key level. Maybe that's what you meant. If yes, um or maybe you're trading universal
71:37
Speaker A
sequence. I don't really know what this is, but expansion away from key level. Okay, this looks like universal sequence. Yes. SM tooth gap. Okay, cool.
71:44
Speaker A
Yeah, this looks good. This is like universe sequence, right? Yeah, that's good. Um, how do you trade how do you frame trades on Russell against the triad? Uh, like you can so you can trade like the Russell almost like individually.
72:02
Speaker A
Um, but I I I just don't do it too often. It's got to be like super clear and you only use S&P the YM.
72:11
Speaker A
That's the main way to do it. The way the main way you use RTY, bro, is I still want a a direction on the main triad. So if I look at the main triad, right?
72:23
Speaker A
If I look at the main triad and you know in Q is kind of whatever, right? It's like the weakest. I'm just trying to make an example of like maybe it's the weakest or something. ES is like the
72:37
Speaker A
middle and the YM is the strongest, but RTY is even stronger than YM. Then you can pick RTY and vice versa. Right? So just looking the triad obviously YM would be the strongest but if I look at RTY compared to YM if it if that's
72:54
Speaker A
stronger then I will I'll just trade RTY typically or vice versa. That's typically how I will just do it. It's like super clear. So sometimes RTY is super clear that you could technically trade with YM, but I just rather not.
73:16
Speaker A
[cough and clears throat] Uh what time is it right now? Oh man, I'm behind. Oh my god, bro. This is crazy. Like the chat moves so fast. It gets so behind.
73:31
Speaker A
doesn't uh let's see. Yeah, pretty much right. Coming really close to low. Do you have a 4-hour gap or like six hour gap? Yeah, like this can be your fine key level potentially to to look for continuations.
73:49
Speaker A
Uh yeah, I mean this would be my overall draw for the week. Obviously lower, right?
73:56
Speaker A
Uh YM still has a slow. We'll see if we can get down here or something as well.
74:07
Speaker A
Or we'll see if we just [ __ ] If we just [ __ ] maybe like consolidate that will create a higher TM gap to maybe form the high of the week. There's situations, right? Certain situations.
74:16
Speaker A
We'll see these assets. Hopefully, we can get up here. Have a nice expansion week.
74:26
Speaker A
Yeah. 4 gap. Do we have a 4 gap? We do have a 4 gap. Okay, cool. Maybe the low of day forms here in this 4 gap to get up here. Pretty simple frameworks.
74:42
Speaker A
[snorts] Uh when indices are coupled. No. I just won't trade RTY really. Like I said, I I typically want a direction on all the indices still though because it's like it's like if if you don't know where NQ or ES is going,
75:14
Speaker A
then you don't know where YM is going. If you don't know where YM is going, RTY is correlated to YM really. So you you kind of want to still look direction, you know.
75:27
Speaker A
Check out CL for our P strength PSP on Friday. Uh talking about right here this to break the SMT bullish bearish right here.
75:52
Speaker A
That good. What is that like 10 o'clock or something? Yeah. All right, guys. That's probably going to be it for today. Sorry for the late stream on a Sunday, but just kind of was with my schedule, but um yeah, hopefully
76:15
Speaker A
you guys learned something. Uh I will really try to put out um this video on like on um profiling, right? Because that's what you guys voted for. I was going to do that today, like a stream on profiling,
76:29
Speaker A
but you guys voted for a video. So, I figured I'd do something like some type of lesson. So, yeah.
76:38
Speaker A
Last one about profiling. If about profiling okay one has erl to ERL and two has IRL to ERL and previous range and two stage and IRL. Okay, I'm getting confused. That just seems like advanced spring discount. No. Do we look for the
76:56
Speaker A
first acid eel to eeril? Okay, you'd look for IRL eel because it's stronger, right? So, this is pretty much what you're asking. Um, right. One asset has ERL to ERL and the other asset has IRL to ERL. You'd want to trade this asset
77:15
Speaker A
here because it's closer to the draw liquidity. It's stronger, right? Because it's creating the failure swing. Even if you even if this asset strength switches or switches strength. Now, when you shrink switch at the reversal, that typically means they're both going to
77:29
Speaker A
reach the draw liquidity. That's what that typically means. Um, so you can't really go wrong honestly, but this is the easiest uh to trade typically.
77:44
Speaker A
Yeah, it's going to be on YouTube unlisted. So, universal sequence for continuation can be only at C3 opening um or gap within C2. Um, I think you're talking about when you have no SMT maybe.
78:04
Speaker A
Is that what you mean to only trade C3? When there's like I think that's what you're referring to. I'm not sure, but we can trade C2.
78:15
Speaker A
Um, like for example, if you have that two-stage um SMT fill, right? So, if this is a PSP right here, um, what? Whoops. If this is a PSP, sorry, the C3. I don't know if this is what you're asking for. I think it is.
78:35
Speaker A
If this is a PSP right here, that's actually Let me just like This is a gap. This is a PSP.
78:46
Speaker A
then you can trade the the asset that hits the gap, right, and creates that uh C2 candle as long as it has a small wick, right? Because you hit a key level, we have SMT, right? This is called a continuation PSP. You can trade
78:59
Speaker A
this C2 candle. I'm not sure if you're referring to that or if you're referring to what I was mentioning, you know, C3, you know, when there's a 15-minute gap here, but no SMT. I don't know what I'm referring to.
79:25
Speaker A
[sighs] [clears throat] would you take a 30 minutes uh reversal sequence on forests uh yeah I would if it's like super high range but there's a close draw you're good like the drawing quity matters. But anyways guys, um I'll leave you guys
79:49
Speaker A
with that. I'll upload this pretty much right now and I'll catch you guys next weekend. See you guys later.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is decoupling in the context of indices markets?

Decoupling refers to when different indices expand in opposite directions, indicating market manipulation and providing trading signals based on relative strength and key levels.

Why should traders avoid trading ES during decoupling?

ES is typically the middle asset that consolidates during decoupling, so it is low probability and safer to wait for re-sync confirmation before trading it.

How can intermarket relations help in trading decisions?

Intermarket relations can provide confluence by showing correlated or inverse trends between indices, metals, oil, and the US dollar, especially when one market is strongly bullish or bearish.
