Three-Step Trading Framework

1. Finding Key Levels (30% of the process)

Identify high-probability price levels where liquidity is concentrated (stop-loss clusters) above or below key points.
Focus on session highs and lows of:
- Asian session (8:00 p.m. – midnight ET)
- London session (2:00 a.m. – 5:00 a.m. ET)
- Previous day highs/lows
- New York session (8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. ET) – main trading session
Mark swing points on hourly charts:
- Bullish swing low: candle with lower low flanked by higher lows
- Bearish swing high: candle with higher high flanked by lower highs
Mark these swing points daily (typically 5-10 minutes per market; 30-45 minutes if multiple markets are tracked).
Avoid marking broken swing points (those taken out by price).
Markets to scan include equities, commodities, indexes, and FX.

2. Confirming Entry (Order Flow Confirmation)

Wait for confirmation that big players are defending the level, not just price touching it.
Confirmation requires:
- A liquidity sweep (stop loss hunt) beyond the level, followed by
- A strong, decisive hourly candle closing back inside the range, showing a shift in order flow and commitment from large traders.
Do not drop to lower timeframes (e.g., 5-minute charts) for entry until hourly confirmation is complete.
Example trades show:
- Short entries after swing highs are raided and price closes back inside the range.
- Use of fair value gaps, order blocks, and breakers on 5-minute charts for precise entry once hourly confirmation is confirmed.
Target risk-reward ratio of at least 2:1, with examples achieving 3R and 5R returns.
Trade setups shown around equity open times (8:30 a.m. ET) to capitalize on volatility.

3. Trade Management (Critical for profitability)

Set stop losses logically based on where the analysis is invalidated (e.g., below liquidity sweep for longs, above for shorts), not arbitrarily or by fixed percentage risk.
Profit targets should be at logical liquidity pools such as previous day swing lows/highs or session highs/lows.
Use partials to take profits:
- Take ~50% off at the first target to lock in profits.
- Let remaining position run to second target.
Use time-based exits:
- Avoid holding trades through lunch hours as markets tend to lose momentum and retrace.
- Monitor market behavior by time to optimize exit points.
Manage psychology and discipline strictly:
- Avoid moving stops further away when trades go against you.
- Avoid closing winners too early or revenge trading after losses.
- Follow rules consistently regardless of emotions.
Example shared: missed $200+ points profit on NASDAQ due to lack of trade management.
