Trading is all about 90% waiting 10% execution of orders, when you wait you actually working but when you don't wait you aren't working, eg in office when you seat idle your boss will shout on you why you aren't working, but in trading it's completely opposite when you seat idle you're actually working remember this.

As a rookie I had considered those before getting pros handle my investment operations with better experience hence my profits making

Thank goodness you brought this up. Honestly, trading has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life. Working multiple jobs for money isn’t the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. I’ve been able to get enough returns (about 250 bucks daily) to make sure I and my family are good in these troubled times. Great piece!

Always wait for a retest of a trend line, support/resistance or retracement before entering a position

Well, actually to be good at trading you have to lose some of your own money. You need to use different assets, and you need to trade them to understand the mechanics. Derivatives and leverage teach people (the smart) risk management. Those not willing to learn pop out like champagne bottle cork. Right decisions come with experience. And experience comes with bad decisions.

This was one of the best trading videos I have seen in a very long time. Great work Trading Rush! (Loved the music also! Created a sense of drama.)

It's easy to analyse historical data. In reality, the market can go contrary to market fundamentals at unpredictable times and periods. You can never really be sure where the top or the bottom is.

Nice video very engaging from the beginning to the end. Nevertheless putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for.

This sounds like The Rock explaining trading.

Love that opening example. Catastrophic if going in with no strategy, but potentially salvageable with acceptable loss, break even, or even a slight profit with a strategy for failed entry loss mitigation. Clinging onto the belief of being right and having nothing to protect the downside rather than accepting that the idea didn't work, making the best of it and moving on is the worst.

The best approach to the market is highly subjective, i focus on long term investment currently and less short term trades. the smartest way to get rich is by putting money to work in trends that offer double-digit growth potential for a very long time.

Nice test - good you did it. The only thing is that 50% between typical entry and stop loss is too far. It would be nice if you could do another comparison and use 65% or 70% from stop loss - there will be way fewer trades that are not taken, cause there really are many times that the price retraces from MACD cross-over (at least if it is used with standard settings). If you do this, there would be two things to test for - RR 1.5 and RR that corresponds to the original target price level, to see which one is better. When aiming for RR 1.5 with this entry zone it is just a question of whether there are more trades that would not reach the entry point or more trades that don't reach the target with the original entry level. If it is the later, than this adjustment should provide a higher win rate than the original strategy. If this is the former, that the win rate will be lower and thus the question will be whether leaving the target at the original level will provide high enough RR to offset the declining win rate, which hopefully will still be above 50% (at least that is what I aim for).

Great use of vivaldi, i really enjoyed your editing of the opening scene :)

Open 2 positions, each having 50% of the total amount you want to put in. First halftrade has a 1:1 ratio (or lower), second halftrade only has the same SL but no TP. If the TP of the first halftrade is hit, move the SL of the second halftrade to break even and trail your SL. This way you can hedge losing trades by having additional smaller wins and can ride good trends further than the 1.5:1 ratio. It's a bit more to do on your side but well...you fight against Quants with a degree in higher mathematics that work for multibillion dollar companies with a salary in the higher six digits range, so at least do something for your money. If it were THAT simple, everybody would do it. Also, learn where the smart money goes and follow it. If most traders lose money and most traders use the same indicators, go figure why this might be correlated.

I agree with everything but guessing on what outcomes will happen. Never guess. NEVER. Make every decision based on the data and stats

lesson learnt: Instead of rushing and opening a position and hope for a change of price direction, wait PATIENTLY for the price to break the key level, and a pullback to that key level, and rejection, and open a position in the same price direction.

I like the topics you discuss on this channel. It really gives food for thought 👍🏾😊

That beginning edit was something out of hollywood, fastastic vid real data

One of the reasons why stop- losses are so important! If you can get a trailing stop-loss even better! I'd much rather be stopped out and lose some gains then have what you showed in the beginning happen

Because you used the last movement to Vivaldi's Four Seasons to illustrate improper entry at the beginning, you have an instant subscriber, man. That piece is partially responsible for both my joy of life and interest in graphs and chart patterns

Your video literally shows how news can affect markets past indicators but then suddenly as it recovers it respects that 200 at least 3 or 4 times.

The way I view a possible trade, is, just like a professional hitter in the batter’s box. If he sees a hanging curveball, flat slider, fastball down the middle of the plate, he’s going all in on that swing. All his indicators were checked off, and he crushes it to the cheap seats. Until he gets those signals, he sits patiently. That’s how I view my trades. When that trigger to enter a trade comes, don’t hesitate. Your eyes should light up when you see those triggers. Until then, sit patiently. There are days that go by where I don’t trade at all. It takes one great trade to make your week/month/year, but only a few little bad trades to take it all away.

Nice illustration on how 2 trades experience different things based on the decisions they make.

How about a 50% late entry but with a 2:1 reward/risk ratio? Btw interesting video as always

Whether Emma would have made 300% tho. If one’s up 50 or 100% most people will at least close some of their positions. That’s the whole psychological disaster with trading. One trade you let it run and take a good profit. Only for the price of the instrument then to double or triple. So next time you don’t want to make that mistake again. So you let it run. And then the price comes back to BE and you are sorry you didn’t take the profit. And this is just the profitable trade we’re talking about. Emotions are just a traders worst nightmare. I think algo trading is the way to go. At least you’re taking the emotional side out of it.

Exceptional video honestly this is gold

Thank you man, it is very good content and video. Good luck to you and may your dreams come true😊😊😊

hello. i'm getting started learning pine script, and i was wondering why don't you automate your backtesting?

The way the initial move is set to music is hilarious! 🤣

Buy only when moving average is rising. sell only when price is below moving average and MA is falling.

For the opening example, fundamentals have a far greater effect on price action than technicals, however technicals can be reliable in the absence of fundamental news.

2020 was a miracle year. I was up 700% for the year. Once in a lifetime market.

Exceptional work 💯💯👍

I love your videos man please keep up the content. Also could you do 100 trades with the RSI+ STOCASTIC+200EMA

Minimum 1:2 RRR is mandatory in any type of trades. Quantity of trades do not matter, quality matters.

Omg I love this 😆😆 did you use the rocks voice 😎🙌

WOAAWHH!! GOOSEBUMPS!! ❤️❤️❤️☝️☝️☝️ thank you, you made this channel!!

I did not understand what is "late entry"? I completely agree with lower risk/reward ratio, it is safer. For example 2:1 is safer than 3:1. That's why the best recommended value is 3:1, because as it was mentioned in video, the ratio of 4:1 means that if you have only 2 profitable transactions, you will have profit. It means that three other transactions will be losing. If you work with 3 instruments it means that you have 9 losing transactions. They can also be consecutive. The probability of it is very low but it exists. That's why we need to be careful.

Thanks for saving me a lot of time 😂. Was thinking on trying out one of those

Could you try backtesting different ema’s and different risk to reward for the macd strategy?

Can you do a 100 trades video for delta cumulative divergence?? Love this channel!

what timeframe is best for MACD strategy?

What tool do you use for your text to speech? It sounds really good, almost lifelike.

Thank you so much, I had that doubt and I didn't know if my experiments were right, really thank you for the info But, why not taking the same positions but decreasing the TP? I mean, instead of 4:1 or 3:1, maybe a 2:1 in the same entries? Or even better, 2 positions, 1:1 and the second half 3:1 or stuff like that. Those are the next experiments I'll run and let's see what happens :D

Thank you very much sir but how can I use this strategy on MT4 mobile android phone

Beautiful information sar thanks for your help

All truth been told, trading in the amounts we 're talking, has slightly better win/loose chances than horseraces. Plus it's less dangerous. You won't get mugged by a junky who spotted you on the windows collecting profits. Other than that, all the worlds philosophy, Bayesian theorems and Wyckoff's analysis doesn't change the fact that all it is is just rolling the craps from the luxury of an A/C room, wearing a suit (or just your dirty underwear, I guess), not having to curry your gun and the label of being a sick gabbler. Now, with that been said, how to you make the SL 50%, again? Just canceling and re-entering the TP/SL box?

Great choice of music!

I miss this older voice. Having been here from almost the start, this voice is trading view to me. Regardless, love ur work. Much love.

If you want to survive, stick with your trading plan and find those set-ups that at least have 1:3 RR.

That's a parabolic drop...I wouldn't by that on a dare and I don't care what MA you have on your chart. Markets roll over, and you have to adapt.

Trend on 4H chart is the best trend guide for majority of forex traders( if one keeps trades for 2-5 days. By the time trader realizes that trend on daily chart is up, market has already gone up about 3-5 days & if you ask supercomputer for the mathematical odds, computer tells you that odds are negative right from the start. Another reason is that trend on 1H chart can flip on A dime & your money is gone.Trend based on the last 5-10,four hourly candles has enough players behind it so that it would not flip on A dime, so trader has decent chance to make something without buying overpriced merchandise. Entry is on 15 minute price action.Sir , I Seek your wisdom?

The 1st play was a perfect short!

In what kind of market do you test these strategies? If I am backtesting I get a lot lower winrates on current markets (only looking at the strategy itself, no further analyses done)

Thank you Sir

These videos just get better and better

Beautifully made 👌👌👌

As a beginner trader with a small account andover 100 trades executed, the majority win s for long entries came from using major support levels , which is determined by using volume profiling on higher time frames usually on daily and weekly. I recommed Traders should be looking for multiple concepts of convergence and not relying on one single indicator for entry

Can you please let us know what was your MACD settings so that I can try back testing as I am unable to see your macd setting

I noticed you calculate the entry point when MACD crosses over, however in real life you won't have confirmation of this until the next candle, so shouldn't your entry be calculated from the next candle?

I'm going to test the MACD strategy on the 1.5:1 ratio with a pullbackSL, but also if it goes 50% to the SL, then I'll double down, but also adjust my ratio so it's not 4:1 and make it back to 1.5:1, but now I'll have double the shares.

Bill should have created a stoploss lol

I kinda struggle with support and resistance. I feel like there’s support and resistance everywhere on the chart, that makes it impossible for me to trade with it. Could you make a vid abt this?

00:37 this is what happens to me everyday

You don't buy just because price is at 200MA. There's other things that needs to happen, not necessarily macd cross over.

I found it really funny that the example was the market crash in 2020 and I knew what it was just by looking at it.

can you make a video about moving stoploss to breakeven after hitting 1R

Moving to the weekly’s would help. Also check the 43 EMA vs 200-220ish SMA.

Why the hell would you buy there, the chart just switched bearish and youd be buying a bearish topping tail and the price action shows no sign of slowing down with no reversal signals..

I do value investing only since 2013. My CAGR is over 27%. Making money with Complete peace of mind.

This is some top shelf stuff.

The way that stock was dumping I wouldn't have gone long at the 200 MA. That is some serious bearish momentum. You're trying to catch a falling knife. In fact I would have gone short off the back test of the 200 MA

must say the more i know about trading the less i make. lol My first 5 weeks i turned 5000 into 40.000 ...after that more losses

This is why i need time machine, i wanna know "when", its all about "when".

This is the absolute game changer ... Don't be the first to enter the market when the obvious signal showed up.

The entry candle that you have shown here was not for buy long , it was clearly for shorting. Lack of experience & knowledge can burn your account

Well, I think at the end you can actually calculate the strategy with the best profitability by doing once more calculation to subtract the lossing trades at their risk to reward ratio based on the smaller or larger stop cases. Their may be a fancy name for such a calculation but I'd rather do that then just eyeball the largest winning percentage because we have to see what the size of the losses actually do. Hope you can do that. Can't knock the video, the graphics and editing is nicely put together.

where you trade? and how do i add macd on mt4

Sir, In option day trading how can I trade.

thank you

There was no buy signal at all near that 200 MA. Also, what did the daily volume look like, what did the weekly indicators look like? Should have exited the trade with the break out point failure where price broke below 200, then back above the 200 MA then back below, that was the sell signal. Entering on a doji without confirmation the next day and entering an objective long position not smart. Always enter a position based on confirmation such as a bullish engulfing candlestick after that entry on the doji.

This is cool! Thank you for your great idea. I will use this to develop my forex robot trade.

Great video

Would reducing reward/risk ratio be better? E.g. 1.3.

Also a key point in Intraday is that in order to make 100$ you need to bet a 10000$. The opposite is impossible.

will we ever get a video with true voice? I have learned a lot from your channel. Thanks

The opening was great.

You should do a video on the awesome indicator "Willy by Coinsidering" please!

Excellent 👌

Problem with this video is market is run by 90^ algos. Retail investors that are represented in the video only.make up the remaining 10% and are along for the ride. Yes you need to research your entry/exit but retail is mainly along for the ride

Ah Bill. The "tick every indicator" kinda guy.

I wonder how Bill the Second would have reacted... 🤔

I took a short on that trade u say , and sell when hit the EMA ,, lol profit for me !!

Price moves the indicators not the other way around.

great video

A trader who doesn't use stop loss is not a trader. Besides your reference time is covid exception. Only thing i can agree on is entry after move confirmation

If only the backtesting tool could work on SPX options butterfly spread strategies with ITM settlement on expiry 🤔

No one strategy can be used forever, long term bull market just buy and hold.

I predicted right when it breaks wall then retouch it means it going to break through

Now imagine if the guy would have bought at support and put a stop loss at say 10% below! The most important thing about trading is risk management! Many times things bounce at support many times they don't but with a good stop loss and place you can manage how much you lose! Unfortunately it's very easy to have that stop loss kick in and then say okay it went down enough now and buy back in only to be stopped out again and say okay well it's got to be at the bottom now and have that happen over and over😭
