The Trading Strategy I Invented That Got Me Funded - Categorical Trading

[@ImanTrading]

Happy to update this on 8/15/24 to say I'm on multiple prop firm payouts, and my 3 biggest ones equal 4.8k in total :). Top firms ranked by affordability / easiest evaluations - www.imantrading.org/prop-firms Or, skip that and just go with the cheapest AND easiest firm to get funded with - myfundedfutures.com/?ref=4140 (coupon code Iman is ALWAYS the highest discount) Full review of MyFundedFutures - www.imantrading.org/firmfaq/myfundedfutures More information on this strategy (all free) - www.imantrading.org/howimantrades Remember that all strategies and systems are just different perspectives to learn one thing, and that’s price action. All strategies are just as valid as they are invalid, because they require discretion to work IF it’s not a fully-automated algorithm. Do not start using prop firms until you're ready, otherwise you will lose money. Using my links supports me at no extra cost to you.

[@NickShawnFX]

12:00 - Starting with a 1:1 RR is something I've suggested since 2019. It starts people off with roughly a breakeven trading approach (better than losing like most traders) and then allows for experience to develop the trader's intuition in terms of management decisions based on price action - closing "bad" trades early, and holding or adding to "good" trades that begin to profit. Good sh*t, dude.

I gotta tell you, I was almost ready to write off trading as an option for me. I’ve been studying the markets since 2020 and have been experimenting on my own. I was able to get funded only to slowly bleed my account down to loose it. I’ve got 2 years to retirement from the army and would like to figure a way to be around for my family and trading has been one of my attempted experiments. I just couldn’t figure a way to make it work, but finding your videos and listening to your approach has motivated me to give it another go and really just do it all on my own instead of looking for ‘vetted’ strategies. I’ve got 2 years to figure it out after all. Good work, keep it up! (Also, if it matters, I’m 40 and it’s nice to see young folks doing good things)

[@socawarrior1263]

After watching this , I still don’t understand where you would actually enter in a consolidation trade vs a trending trade , an example of you entry would have been been helpful

[@BillHicks420]

At least for me, consolidation you can trade inside of, placing stop-loss outside when price successfully hits support or resistance. Or you can trade break-out (safest on some kind of failed retest). Trend you can pretty much take at anytime, of course, the earlier the better, preferably on a pullback. Look at futures symbol /ZW (wheat). HEAVY downtrend (May 28 to June 20 2024). The temptation is to say "oh it can't fall anymore". Look how many full trading days you'd be wrong!

[@felipematheus853]

​@@BillHicks420 The problem is that this strategy uses only one variable: Price. Also, the ATR can't predict volatility; big candles are caused by stop-loss(stop orders) with high quantity of limit orders against the trend. So anyway, this strategy is simple and it's easy to make an EA to test this theory. And when your strategy can't work in simulations and backtest of a great sample (~1000 trades) and "just works by the psychological and peace of mind of the individual," the strategy doesn't work. You can get a lucky profit in the first ~100 trades, but you will lose all, certainly, in the long term. All I have to tell is based on my experience. I already have a model that works for 2 years and is based on volatility prediction and order flow (volume at price is bullshit). I don't think it's possible to make any consistent prediction with price action since the market is random 99% of the time (when institutional interference is not present).

[@lovingmybaby9530]

Man you are so right (21.00) I watched a hundred pip+ short in front of my eyes and a persuaded myself that there was going to be a pullback and waited for that illusive green candle that never came. I never saw such strong, long singing a song Red candles and still I waited. After, i actually slapped myself as everything on my charts was telling me to short but hope is a powerful thing. I have vowed it will never happen again. Good vid too!

[@mrdev5281]

Well said @ 19:33 "if action is too chaotic you should not be taking a trade". Please add to your scripts what is also very important that many traders need help remembering. I'll quote myself this time, "If the action is too flat and lacking momentum you should not be taking trades." This is probably one of the most difficult conditions to realize "in the moment" especially as we are eager to take trades as we know, we must join the conversation (trade) to make money. One full day or more can simply be in a range move, but it can be measured and used as a caution not to trade. Many traders need to consider this to avoid getting chopped up as their stops will be hit faster than their lofty profit targets. Good work, and Peace Out Young Iman .

[@BrandonAbel01]

If you are a beginner and have found this video, consider yourself lucky. The nuggets I liked: "Profit targets should ask as little as possible out of price action." For that use the ATR section of this video to help set your numbers correctly. And... "Just because you know what you're supposed to do, it doesn't mean you'll do it.", so don't be too hard on yourself and continue to learn from your mistakes. (which were hopefully in a sim account.)

[@Benjammy]

I’ve been using the 1:1 R for awhile now and I have found that selling half at 1:1 and moving stop to break even allows you to catch the small and large moves. So still a 50/50 chance on reaching the 1:1 but you also have the possibility to get a way more money out of the trade. Especially if you can slowly take off contracts on the big candles. Idk it works nice for me!

[@garkeiner2342]

Thank you for this awesome explanation! It makes a lot of sense. Kinda-sorta-halfway-off-topic: One aspect that nudged me from a similar line of thought to automated trading was the sample size though. Automated testing (done sensibly) gives me so much more confidence by the sheer number of trades I can analyze. This, in turn, lets me extrapolate a somewhat clearer picture of what behavior to expect by following a certain strategy (esp. the boundaries - what's approximately the worst drawdown to be expected, etc.), which also helps to spot (sequences of) trades that should trigger a closer reexamination. Perhaps that's just an idiosyncrasy of my quantitatively inclined mind though. I don't trust my intuition without a lot of data points to lean on - more than I could manually accrue in some reasonable amount of time.

i trade opposite to your style, i trade directional moves mainly on the US30 Open. I plot rough estimations of the most recent swing points which "box in" price just before 930 est. I buy after a strong close above/sell after a strong close below these lines. I use ATR of the breakout candle to determine if i trade or not and to determine my stop size. Stop size will be 78.6% of the breakout candle range, trailing start immediately after 1 pip profit. Its my favorite Fib number and last point of possible reversal for retracements.

how its going for you brother?

[@rickpilot601]

Since you record all trades it would be nice to see actual trades played back, I'm still not clear what you are doing (been trading many years)

[@wigsy9386]

If a YTer shows his face he is your doctor Ivo Robotnik or the old guy from squid games, yeah for sure they can point you in the right direction but we all know after your first year trading direction isn't the problem. Lambs to the slaughter comes to mind also. Nice work Iman it seems like you've learnt from the same source. PA is all that matters in this dish of trading lightly seasoned with basic awareness that an RSI has some merit and indicators are ridiculous to use. Based bruh!

I look forward to playing with this, especially as I just blew my account (lol nothing major lost $150, more the reason why I lost that was the issue) really glad you got funded matey!

[@Roartykarma]

This might sound odd, but I dont actually understand what you're doing. You're watching price action, to see if the candle itself it going up or down, then you put a buy/sell limit order on based on the candle hoping that it's going to return to where it came from and then push in the direction of the trend it's pushed to already? The stop is above the forming candle? Isn't this really risky? Apologies I'm just thoroughly confused.

Im still learning to day trade, currently in week 2, taking a shitload of notes, and I have a bunch of questions/notes/thoughts that need to be explored before I even start. But One of my meanderings, is that, there have to be people out there, who have tried a shitload of tools and styles and methodologies, and then condensed it all into a bottom line. Also, there should be a program that makes everything super easy for me as well, but again im still a newb

[@AntiSocialElf]

That dog bark scared the shit out of me - I had my headphone on high volume on.

[@JeredKing]

Respect for having your own view and strategy

[@michaelcollins8650]

You talk about all the "bad gurus", but could you do a video on people are a good to learn from? What do you think about Daniel Inskeep, or Pandrea Finance (i know he pushes options, but not as click baity)?

i hope this channel gets 1 millon subscribers by the end of this year

I'm implementing something conceptually similar on one of my cbots. But instead of adjusting the timeframe according to the desired bracket size, I'm using range bars. When volatility increases, the cbot gets faster on its signal analysis, because more bars are being generated in a shorter period of time.

ADHD is a super power, this video proves it.

What happened to "Don't Diddle in the Middle"? That's exactly that imo

[@XXPomanTradingXX]
