PROVEN METHODOLOGY

My Trading Strategy

A systematic approach to trading forex and indices using price action, market structure, and institutional concepts

🔍 Key Concepts

  • Price action–based (clean charts, no indicators)
  • Focus on FX pairs & indices (esp. XAUUSD, GBPUSD, US30, NAS100)
  • Liquidity hunting / stop runs
  • Institutional order flow
  • Market structure shifts
  • Reversal zones over trend continuation

🧠 Psychology & Risk

  • High confidence, low-frequency trading
  • Strong emphasis on patience and waiting for A+ setups
  • Risk management focused: 1–2% per trade
  • Sometimes slightly higher if ultra-confident

💡 Extras & Mindset

  • Trades mostly NY session (13:00–16:00 UK time)
  • Avoids overtrading – 1 or 2 setups per day max
  • Often journals emotions, not just trades
  • Big believer in backtesting, journaling, and refining through experience

Strategy Process Breakdown

Step-by-step approach to finding and executing high-probability trades

1

🗓 Daily Bias Creation

  • Analyzes higher timeframes (HTF: 4H / Daily)
  • Previous day high/low
  • HTF liquidity zones
  • Imbalance & inefficiency in price
  • Forms bullish or bearish bias before NY open
2

🔁 Market Structure

  • Break of structure (BOS)
  • Change of character (CHOCH)
  • Avoids trading until market creates a setup in line with HTF bias
3

🏦 Liquidity + POIs

  • Equal highs/lows
  • Buy/sell side liquidity
  • Fair value gaps (FVGs+)
  • Supply/demand zones (usually refined on 15M–1M)
  • Looks for price to grab liquidity then reverse
4

📉 Entry Criteria

  • Strong engulfing candles
  • Rejections from key zones
  • Break + retest of minor structure
  • Confirmation on lower TF (1M–5M) after HTF POI is hit
5

🧮 Risk & Trade Management

  • Stop loss: just outside liquidity grab or structure
  • Target: opposite liquidity (e.g., previous low/high, session range)
  • Often uses 1:3+ RR setups
  • Sometimes scales in on confirmation
