Our Methodology in a 16 Minute Video

Finance-focused summary (markets, strategy, risk, metrics)

What they trade / universality of the method

• They describe a trend-following approach that can be applied to:
  • Oil, bonds, gold
  • S&P (noted as “SNP” in the subtitles, likely a subtitle error)
  • Nasdaq
  • Dow futures and the Dow Jones index
  • Russell 2000
• In the example, they emphasize Dow futures as the primary instrument, citing:
  • Lower transaction costs
  • Volatility differences versus alternatives

Instruments / tickers / indices explicitly mentioned

• Dow futures / Dow Jones index
• S&P (“SNP” appears to be a subtitle error)
• Nasdaq
• Russell 2000
• Gold
• Oil
• “British pound vs pork bellies” (used as an example of irrelevant trading focus; not recommended)

No individual stock tickers, ETF tickers, or crypto tickers are mentioned.

Core methodology / step-by-step framework (as described)

1) Multi-timeframe trend voting (daily / 60-minute / 15-minute)

• Use three timeframe indicators and require 2 out of 3 alignment (described as a “jury of three”) to set directional bias.
  1. 60-minute chart
     • Indicator: 5-period SMA vs 20-period SMA
     • Uptrend: 5-SMA > 20-SMA
     • Downtrend: 5-SMA < 20-SMA
  2. 15-minute chart
     • Same logic: 5-SMA relative to 20-SMA
  3. Daily pivot (in a “3-minute chart” context)
     • Daily pivot formula from High/Low/Close:
       • (H + L + C) / 3
     • Bias:
       • Above daily pivot = up bias
       • Below daily pivot = down bias
• Example stated outcome:
  • 60-min up + 15-min up + daily pivot up ⇒ 3 out of 3 up
  • They describe buying pullbacks when alignment is bullish

2) Timing charts / range- and tick-based bars

• They use “window” charts to time entries, emphasizing that bars form only after a threshold:
  • 12-range chart (range bars)
    • New bar forms when price moves 12 ticks from the high/low
  • 133 tick chart
    • New bar forms after 133 trades (subtitles suggest “after every 133 trades”)
• Purpose:
  • Short-term support/resistance
  • Supply/demand
  • Momentum assessment

3) Setup logic using confluence

• They state they don’t rely on a single indicator; instead they look for confluence across multiple indicators/setups (they mention having six).
• They describe a “Triple T” setup (referred to as Tardy Trader Trap) involving:
  • Trend context
  • Volume on new highs
  • Avoiding chasing; instead waiting for pullbacks
• Named concepts/setups mentioned (mostly as contextual components):
  • “Buy the first touch” rule
  • Double top / double bottom
  • MW trade on a breakout (acronym meaning unclear from subtitles)
  • Triple T (explicitly named)
  • Pullback / first touch
  • “First touch roll”
  • Stochastic hook (mentioned as part of their context)

4) Momentum vs trend (risk management via acceleration/deceleration)

• They include an explicit caution:
  • If trend is up but momentum is decelerating, they consider reducing/exiting a trend position.
• Rationale:
  • The trend may be overbought and likely to pull back

Example trade / performance claim (with key numbers)

Example using Dow Jones futures

• Support/resistance level cited: 41,021
• Timeline:
  • 9:00 AM: they expected a drop toward 41,245
  • They shorted and covered
  • Then switched long when price returned through 41,021
• Upper target: 41,644
• Claims:
  • They achieve these highs/lows “five days out of the month”
  • They claim they catch highs/lows “almost exactly” (presented as a marketing-style claim; no statistical proof provided)

---

Behavioral / risk cautions (trader psychology and execution)

• A common failure mode described:
  • If a trader enters long at the top after resistance breaks, they may be down ~12–13 points shortly after.
• Emotional progression described:
  • Sick feeling → panic → larger loss → potential account wipeout
  • Followed by the possibility that buyers return
• Their 12-range / tick charts are presented as a way to manage timing/entry behavior.
