      This is called breakout hunting. It works, but it is still an edge, and if you truly traded randomly, it would not work at all.

      As a trader who's been trading off and on since 2009, this is NOT a bad strategy at all. The theme on repeat in this video is "RISK MANAGEMENT". If you master that, you can trade ANY strategy and be profitable. I know a few traders that have been doing coin flip entries (seriously) since before I started, and ONCE THEY'RE IN, they set a profit and loss target. SOME do this type of "double down" when market moves against you. So this video is talking about how to do this with an account that is 100% funded with risk capital, which is a fantastic concept. BUT THIS CAN ALSO APPLY to an account where your entire trade capital is in the account. The only difference is, instead of risking 1-3% PER TRADE, instead, since your account is the capital and the risk, you'd simply reduce your initial trade risk so that if you're in a position where market moves against you and you had to do, say, 8 entries in a row like in this video, at that point you're at your MAX RISK, which for most people is 1-2%. So for example, if you have MT4, and you trade on OANDA or IG, and you enter a trade, you can enter with a lot size of 0.01. So one entry of that size on the euro/usd ends up being somewhere around a penny per tick. So if the spread is, for example, 1 on a retail acount, then as soon as you hit the button you're negative -0.10 cents. A DIME. Ok? So if price moves against you 20 ticks, you're out 0.30 cents. If that's your next entry, now you're out 0.40 cents. Now.... if market moves against you a total of 100 TICKS before reversing, and you entered just say equal distance of 20 ticks, you'd have your initial entry, plus 5 other entries at 0.01 lot size. So your total "loss" after a negative move of 100 ticks would be about 1.10$ for the initial trade, 0.90$ for the second, 0.70$ for the third, 0.50$ for the fourth, 0.30$ for the fifth, and 0.10$ for the sixths trade due to spread. Ok, so what's the grand total for that "losing" trade? With a 500$ small account, you'd be at 0.8% risk percentage for all 6 trades combined, totalling about 3.60$. (ish) That's not counting continuing moves against you, which would be approximately 0.06$ per tick, assuming each tick was a penny. So if you have all your risk captial in the account, it would certainly have a "magic point" to put a stop loss somewhere reasonable to protect your account from absurdly fast moves against you... but even if you do button stop trading, you can usually close out before your account hits any significant loss, and with a TOTAL possible trade entry cost of 0.8% of your account. Keep in mind, it could move an additional 100 ticks against you and you'd still only be an additional 6 or so dollars loss, with a total combined loss of 9.60$ which is just shy of 2% of your capital. So yeah. Coin flip with this type of risk management is absolutely a "doable" thing, and if you manage your trade positions with the mindset that you might have to occasionally make 6 trades before it reverses (or hits your stop if this is your only trade capitol), then you can repeat this procedure and it CAN BE PROFITABLE. Its one of those things I learned early on, the MOST important thing about trading is what level of risk you're at any given time. Once you master that, (and there's many ways to manage risk that are valid) then you're good to go. My mentor, when I asked them about how they pick such great entries, they looked at me and said "Entry? What about the entry? FUCK the entry. If you're in a burning building, was how you got in important? ITS ALL ABOUT THAT EXIT PLAN."

    I absolutely agree with you! This is the best way to trade as a human. Many bots are also programmed to trade this way. I use a similar method but I was missing 2 things in my approach. And now I found it in this video. 1)After many entries I can close at break even instead of waiting for a return to the first entry. 2) I will trade a percentage of my money each time at full margin. Thanks so much for sharing. I hope your health is better now.

While it's true that this strategy carries inherent risks, it can also be profitable under certain conditions. A well-funded account and proper risk management techniques, such as using smaller position sizes, can mitigate those risks.
      For instance, my bot can handle extended drawdowns and exploit retracements. which makes the strategy worth using.

      This is called mean reversion trading. It's not new. Use a mean reversion channel and see how far away price typically gets to before returning to the mean line on the instrument you are trading. The ruler tool in tradinview will tell you a percentage.

      There are news all the time, it's almost impossible to avoid them. If you're going to avoid news, you're never gonna trade. A lot of times you're going to be in a trade when news show up, you either let it play out (it's 50/50 anyway) or you get out at a loss/small profit. This strategy is for people with deep pockets, you can blow 5 accounts of 1k before you finally grow one to 10k. Which is fine if you have enough funds, which isn't the case of 99% of people.

If you increase size, you risk margin call upon numerous additions. Granted, the idea that all trades come back to entry is lucrative, but this is something hedge funds can afford.

    I totally agree with ur method. I did some backtesting with random buy/sells .... and yep as long as you can deal with unrealised drawdown, in most cases you can close positions for profit or small loss, and as you do, if you hedge positions or add to losing positions you can greatly improve chances of profit. That said, even a weak edge on the entry like looking at the higher time frame direction , could help reducing the time in unrealised drawdown. The mindset is just like : if you bought a stock for buy and hold, at market open, you wont expect a profit for a few days/weeks, and if the price went against you, u might take more position on, but eventually it would all be ok in the end. It's like taking a long term view, but for shorter term profit.

While the chance to finally get the trade right is higher as you open a new position (b/c the swing stock will eventually turn around), recouping the whole unrealized loss is unlikely unless the last positions have the power to gain faster. What if using leap options? Options can reduce the size of each position but each small position can also spring the gain 2-3x of its amt. This can help to recoup the total loss even way before the underlying retrace 100% to where you start.

When I would go to a casino I'd play a 1:1 card game essentially implementing this tactic to be able to play to break even or only slight losses or wins. I knew this was applicable to trading but never took the time to sit down and figure it out until the past year, and found your content verifying so many of my theories...which boils down...the big secret...to money management and a decent "feel" for what you're doing that comes with experience that anyone can learn with just a little confidence. It's a huge psychological, almost "spiritual" (as some might say) life game. It will also challenge anyone stuck in poverty consciousness...giving them a potential out to being poor and having a quality of life for the first time. I've been poor most of my life until recently. Huge cheers Nick, just love your content.

    There's a few problems with this:
    #1 you can get stuck in a position for so long that breaking even isn't even worth it anymore. I'd rather lose a bit of money and then enter new trades than staying in a trade for multiple hours just to break even.
    #2 you automatically lose if there's a downtrending day. And the losses will vastly outweigh the wins.
    #3 because you expect to keep adding to your losing positions, the amount of money you put in your initial position is very limited, which greatly reduces profits.
    #4 the fact that you need to use the whole account as your stop loss means you'll never be able to trade with a significant amount of money, so the strategy doesn't scale up well

    Thanks Nick, such a calm sober approach , to what could be a very emotional task. My only criticism is that the big profits you're seeing is in trading these 1 hour candles, and that likley these trades would be held over 2-4 days as your demoing in your back testing. in real time you'd be placing these positions and feeling the real time draw down for hours and questioning your decision... maybe that just me. Hard for me to stay as calm with this hedge betting like system as the concern of major loss would be running like spyware in the back of my mind as i go throughout the day and or I'd be constantly checking and nervously questioning my decision to go randomly in the market.

    your method is called averaging down if you are long or averaging up is you are short. Averaging down /up will not always work. See the the ARK Capital by Cathie Wood. She did the same, averaging down until bust, hopping for reversal, she did not had a change to brake even like you did and close the position. Your brake even on a large position averaged by multiple buy/sell may not come until you run out of funds. There is a say that if you try to catch a falling knife you will be cut.

    That was an absolutely fantastic example Thank You. Personally, as a new trader, I have tried to use this method and suffered my biggest losses resulting in loss and fear. I have now reduced my account balance to start again. Just today I was stopped out of a trade that went on to make new highs as I expected. I should have been in the money. I still lost earlier in the day. After reviewing how the markets work and watching this video, I'm ready to go and try again. I'm not a fan of stop losses. My position size just needs to be a bit more practical considering I could be wrong 7, 8, 9, 10 + times. More importantly are the timescales involved in these types of trades. It takes Days, Weeks, Months and NOT Seconds or Hours. Thank you. Wish me luck 🙂

      You counter it by entering an inverse trade with a lot size that's like 5 times the size of your original position.
      Eg: If you open 3 buy orders with 0.01 lot size and the market keeps going down against you, then open a fourth order with lot size of 0.1, and that order will be SELL not BUY, so if it breaks that hedge, you start gaining in that direction and that will neutralize the losses on the initial orders you have opened.
      The worst that can happen in this scenario is that the market hits your SELL order and retraces back immediately and that would be a nightmare.
      Cos the SELL loss would drag your equity down and the losses will be 5 times bigger than the original BUY order losses you opened before... but it's not trading if there isn't any risk. right?
      That's why you need to at least know where the market is going generally so as to reduce the risk of this nightmare happening to the barest minimum.

    IDK man, it seems like you're showing the best case scenario, when the trade reverses exactly to your entry point. There is no way most of those trades reverse back to your entry.
    Also, what is the point of holding onto the losing trades, hoping that the next time you add to it and it actually reverses you'd be at break even.
    At 9:11 mark you're saying in the runaway market the trade will usually retrace allowing you to exit at BE or in profit. It would have to retrace all the way back to your first entry for you to be at break even, not to mention in profit.

      Whoosh, you totally missed the entire point. You are essentially saying, I don't like the strat or don't understand it so why don't you use stop loss? The whole point of the strategy is that you are risking rapid growth for extreme risk. You are risking whatever the account is to double it in less than 90 days. The nature of the strategy is high time frame and a bet the market will revert to the mean eventually when its going against you. you want some drawdown in reality because you are doubling your lot size after every market extension .
      You have no idea how powerful this is, about 10% of your portfolio should be in high risk stocks or investments and this is definitely going to be mine. This is the closest thing to an ATM Ive ever found.

      Hey bro, I tried this and stacked it up against the best forex signals and strategies out there and this style still outranks them all by a mile. And this is how to reduce your risk and win instead of calling BS:
      1. Don't try this during any news event.
      2. Don't try this on volatile pairs like XAU/USD.
      3. Check the overall trend of the market in the 15 min timeframe so you know whether to buy or sell.
      4. Add those layer positions before the market goes against you and evenly space them out. I do 30pips per position.
      5. Don't be greedy. If the trade is taking too long and you run into small profit, you can close everything and set up again. The market doesn't need to hit your entry point before you make profit.
      6. Don't lose your sh*t while the market moves.
      Trust me, if you follow these 6 things, you will HARDLY lose.

    Honestly this was one of the best trading video/advice I have seen from anyone ever. Even millionaires couldn't compare.

    This is freaking hilarious.
    I started trading crypto 2 weeks ago, with a very small account.
    At first I told myself i'd hold the trades unless they went like -50% down (which didnt happen).
    I'd always find some profit in every trade.
    Then I learnt about risk management. Most trades since were a losing trade which ended via stop loss, and if I waited 2-3 days the market would bounce back to where I'd initially set my take profit.
    I wondered what the hell, and started thinking the same way you are now.
    I'm not experienced, and I'm very skeptical, but maybe that's why I reached a very similar thought to you here.
    At this point I wouldn't say my thought process ended with a conclusion, like your multiple years experience have, but I'm definitely resonating with what you deliver here.
    Great video, I think I might adopt that particular mindset of the market bouncing back 90% of the time - this is an insane, and maybe overlooked aspect of the randomness of the market.
