Trading Strategies and Key Levels

Introduction

  • Thank you to all followers, subscribers, and TFP BP Champion students.
  • Addressing a subscriber question about timeframe and key levels.

Key Levels and Time Frames

  • Three combinations of trading styles:
    • Swing Trading: Key levels on daily timeframe.
    • Day Trading: Key levels on 4-hour timeframe or hourly (H1).
    • Short-term Trading: Key levels on lower timeframes.

Market Analysis

  • Understanding market structure and trend:
    • Market goes up, then down, creating a series of lower lows and lower highs.
    • Currently in a bearish market with potential bullish confirmation at a breakout of lower highs.
  • Importance of price behavior:
    • Normal instinct is to buy during a breakout, but consider if price is getting expensive.
    • Focus on buying at a discount.

Trading Logic

  • Key points to remember:
    • Look for opportunities to sell at resistance levels during a bull run.
    • Historical data of candle highs and lows helps identify support and resistance.
  • Avoid common mistakes, such as buying into an impulsive market movement.

Analyzing Current Market Conditions

  • Assessing the strength of buyers vs. sellers:
    • Look for significant resistance levels where selling opportunities may arise.
    • Market may show signs of indecision or equal buyers and sellers.
  • Importance of patience:
    • Wait for clear selling pressure signals (e.g., shooting stars or inverse hammers).

Execution Strategy

  • Trading execution considerations:
    • Identify the High Probability Trading Zone (HPT Zone) for potential selling areas.
    • Can use sell limit orders around identified areas with appropriate stop-loss levels.
  • Split risk allocation among multiple trades if necessary.

Community and Learning

  • Announcement of a private Discord community for TFP VIP Champion students:
    • Channels for sharing technical trading ideas and weekly forecasts.
    • A community focused on learning and mutual growth in trading knowledge.

Conclusion

  • Continuously analyze and update key levels in response to market changes.
  • Trading is reactive, not predictive; focus on market behavior.
  • Thank you to all students, subscribers, and followers.
