Trading Strategies and Market Analysis

I've been asked rather by a lot of students over the years, you know,

out of all

the things that I teach, what's the closest thing to how I actually

trade?

What I make available as a model and publicly releasing it, you know,

which one of

them is the closest thing to what I actually do when I'm trading with my own

money?

And it's Model Six and Model Seven because it's a universal

model, and that means

you can use it every timeframe, any timeframe, every timeframe.

And it still isn't really everything, obviously, but out of all the models

that I

have released and/or will release, what I teach in Model Six and Model Seven

in those charter price action models, that is the closest to what

I do. That's not enigma. That's not, you know, every aspect of what I'm

doing. But generally, that's, that's how I'm doing it.

So if I'm bullish, I can be buying the buy side of the curve

of a market maker

buy model, which is what this is here.

If I'm bearish, I'll be selling short the sell side of the

curve, which will be the

opposite side, you know, the, the down movement.

But if I'm short-term bullish because I expect it to go up to create a reversal to

go lower, I can buy during the buy side of the curve

of a market maker sell model.

And it's easier to understand it here where I could be going short here, be

bearish, and aim for liquidity. And if it's going down, you know,

underlying higher timeframe premise because we're at all-time highs and nobody

should try to pick a top in the marketplace,

going down to take sell stops.

It's going down there to accumulate those sell stops to buy them and then start

moving higher. You won't have the experience to determine

this turning point,

which is why it's called smart money reversal. You don't need to know that.

Once it comes up in real-time today, I did it with you.

This is where you'll see the, uh, the low-risk buy form, and the market

rallies up. We have a shift in market structure.

It goes into a breaker, and eventually gives you your second stage

accumulation at

the last premium array over here, and then boom, right there.

And the market does what? It rips higher, digging into the liquidity that's leveled

higher and higher and higher above that high.

So let me just give you a model real quick.

If we understand what I'm gonna be teaching you in great detail in Model

Six and Model Seven of the price action models, you can create a model out

of just components of the sell side of the curve of a market maker buy model,

where you're looking for just individual components that would give you your setup.

So perfect example, let's say you've been trading for a long

time, and you could

see that they were gonna go to that sell side like I did this morning

with you.

You could be buying that. That's your turtle soup, okay?

That's where you do your work as a, a long buyer, okay?

Some of you that don't have the experience, when it starts to rally up,

your eye

goes over to the sell side of the curve here, and you see this single candle right

there, which creates what? On the 32nd chart,

let's go back into it real quick.

That's this candlestick right there.

That's the sell-side imbalance, buy-side inefficiency.

So the market rallies up.

What do we see in this timeframe? An inefficiency and a swing high.

Shift in market structure there. Bullish. That low's intact.

This is where you go in with a low-risk buy.

Using what's on the sell side of the curve to the left of the lowest low, this is

your first array. Carry it over to the buy side of the

curve, which is anything to

the le- uh, to the right of the lowest low here.

See if it offers what? Support.

The market does what? It rallies, creating the signature with the body

saying,

"Okay, yes, the bodies are suggesting that it's supporting price."

If you're ever

looking at an inefficiency, this is also for your notes,

since I framed this

inversion fair value gap on the 32nd chart, I would demand that the bodies are

respecting it on the timeframe I observe it in.

On a lower timeframe, the bodies can be outside of that, okay?

Real big, huge milestone right there.

Whatever timeframe you see the inefficiency in, to have faith in it,

to trust it,

and to use it for your setup, it must respect it by its bodies.

This is a mohawk. This is this like errant price action

that we allow for.

It's normal. It doesn't change or un- undermine the under- underpinnings of what

we're trying to trade on. So the market rallies up,

and you go back over here, and

here is your old high. Carry that forward.

What is it gonna become once it trades to that level? A breaker.

This breaker, okay, was formed on the 32nd timeframe.

No, it was formed on the one-minute chart.

But you can see the bodies even in this lower timeframe.

Look where the bodies are closing and opening.

See how they're inside of that candle? See how it's staying in there?

We're getting wicks, yes, but the bodies are telling the narrative

that I was on

side. It rallies up, and then right in here, what is it doing?

Every PD array can be scaled. Upper quadrant, midpoint, lower

quadrant, and then you have the extreme high

and low of it.

Much like I did with the opening range, where I measured the highest high and the

lowest low of it, and in there is the upper quadrant, the middle,

and the lower

quadrant. Opening range isn't a PD array.

It's a, a range of inefficiency that can be scaled and measured.

Every PD array has that same aspect to it.

So if you look at the range that's created with this breaker that was used on the

one-minute chart, look at that right there.

That's on your upper quadrant.

Yes, it wicks down a little bit, but it's going into

that small little fair value

gap right there. And this is all occurring on a 32nd chart. Crazy,

isn't it?

And then the market rallies up, and then we create the last premium array

on the

sell side of the curve over here, and it trades into here

and then sends it up.

Every one of these individual price points, like that could be your model.

Like you're always looking for the unicorn.

The unicorn is a second stage reaccumulation in a market maker buy

model, or it's

a second stage of redistribution in a market maker sell model.

That's where your biggest price run, the most energetic, the one

that has the most

magnitude, the immediate run bang for your buck,

that's the one you wanna be

looking for. That's why I call it a unicorn.

If you're looking for moves that's gonna be very energetic, they're just really

quick, they start running for you, and they just give you instant

gratification,

that's the one you should be aiming and studying.

The most advanced would be buying the smart money reversal, pyramiding at a

low-risk buy, accumulation, reaccumulation.

So you'd be a buyer, pyramid, pyramid, vroom.
