★★★★☆ 4.0 / 5

Why 4.0/5? (stars grade the EDGE — per-trade expectancy, consistency, drawdown — not the headline return)

  • ✓ Strong per-trade edge: +1.26R expectancy across 102 trades
  • ✓ Convex payoff 4.4 — winners far bigger than losers
  • ✕ Only 44% of trades win — the rare big winners must keep showing up
  • ✕ 3 of 8 tested years were negative (2019, 2025, 2026) — the edge is regime-dependent
  • ✕ Max drawdown -25% on the ₹2L portfolio — the compounded return came with deep pain along the way

Verdict

Auto-backtested. Detected: all-time-high / multi-year breakout momentum (price + volume). Ran on 159 large/mid-caps, real costs. 102 trades, win 44%, payoff 4.42, expectancy +1.26R/trade, biggest winner +107%.

This is a genuine, highly convex momentum edge — rare but powerful: a long base under a multi-year high, then a breakout that runs. Same fat-tail family as the strongest setups we've found. Long-only and regime-dependent (carried by bull years), so size it as a convex lottery, not steady income.

Yo, what's up, boys? Welcome to the channel. Today, we're going to get straight into the point. I'm not going to yap for an intro for a while or anything like that. We're going to get right into it in just 1 second. Before we get into the video, just so that you know what we're going to be talking about in this video, we're going to be covering Only Ticks V2, how I do my bias, how I get my entries, as well as I'm pretty much showing you guys the foundation of Only Ticks V2. This isn't the full model, I'm not going to lie. I'll be totally honest with y'all. The full model is being released on the webinar this weekend. So, watch until the end and you'll understand more about that as well. But, this is the foundation of Only Ticks Model V2. I'm not going to yap any longer. Let's get right into the charts and actually lock in. >> Today, it is May 22nd, 2026. It's Friday, and overall, let's just do a quick review of price action from today. In Asia, Asia was super, super clean last night. Let's take a look at Asia. Also, we'll look at some other sessions as well. We'll take a look at London. We'll take a look at AM as well. We'll look at everything else, pretty much how um price has been reacting to some of the key levels that I've been using. Yeah, let's get right into it. Also, tomorrow, I'm going to be fully going into Only Ticks Model V2 and everything about that. But, for right now, we're just going to be covering kind of the basics, pretty much. Um so, the main thing that I'm going to be covering is pretty much VWAP entries, as well as bias, as well as we could do a little bit of psychology later. Main thing overall that I want to focus on in this charting session is just developing your bias, as well as having a VWAP entry, right? So, VWAP is the indicator right here. Um I'm going to be dropping all of the Only Ticks indicators on the webinar, as well. Um tomorrow and on Sunday, so stay tuned for that. After I teach like the actual Only Ticks V2 model. But, for right now, we're just going to cover one of the concepts on it on the model pretty much that's included is VWAP, right? So, VWAP is a pretty much good ass level that price can draw towards, it can react off of, and the blue line, what is this blue line? It's pretty much the main kind of center point of the volume for that session, if that makes sense, right? Depending on if you use a daily VWAP or a session VWAP. In simple terms, it's basically the center point of where you want to see kind of price draw towards, react from, right? As well as premium and discount. When we're below VWAP, right? We're usually discounted, when we're above it, usually we are premium. Just like this for example. You can see how price often times will draw towards it, and it's kind of like the center point before we distribute, right? So, here we had distribution to the downside, here we had distribution to the upside. As well as when we start to trade away from the center point of VWAP, right? What tends to happen? We trade away from VWAP, and price wants to rebalance price pretty much back towards the center point, right? You can see once again, say that we're bullish for example. Say that we have a bullish bias. We are only looking for longs higher time frame because we did our full top down analysis, which honestly, do I even need to do that right now because I feel like you guys already have that down. Um I think we'll do it still, actually. All that the higher time frame analysis pretty much is, is it's basically just developing yourself a direction, right? So, starting on the weekly time frame, what happened? Wick to lower, rebalanced this unfilled weekly gap, reacted out, right? Going to the daily, shifting structure to the upside, nothing is telling me that we want to run lower. We have all-time highs above as well, right? Going down to the 4-hour, same thing. We're just displacing to the upside. We don't even have to have any indicators at all on right now. Just based on pure raw price action is usually how I determine my bias, right? So, we're just trending up. We're ripping to the upside. We have this high, that's my main draw higher time frame. So, lower time frame, ideally looking for longs, right? Here, we do start to have a bit more of a mixed bias right now today. Today's Friday, but earlier this week you could have seen how clean the drawn liquidity was to the upside. Right now, we are kind of having like a Friday reversal. Um So, right now, we are leaning a bit more mixed bias in the current price action right now, but I think what could happen is we could take out like this AM low or, you know, take out some liquidity and then keep ripping to the upside. But, yeah, unless we start to shift structure below AM low, shift structure below this wick as well, then I think we go back down towards the next session liquidity pool, right? Right here. We have a lot of orders um as well as this low right here. Either we'll take this out and keep ripping to the upside or price will have an even deeper retracement before ripping higher, right? Or, you know, nobody knows for sure, but we could even take out all of these lows and then have the reversal, right? NASDAQ higher time frame though, this asset is pretty much like always bullish as hell, right? Just look at the daily. Look at the daily. Look at the 4-hour. Look at the hourly, right? It's normally a pretty bullish ass asset. So, honestly, I feel like I personally as a trader take a lot more longs than I do take shorts um as well as just because we are like higher higher time frame just ripping to the upside. So, recently I haven't been taking a lot of shorts at all, honestly, now that I think about it. Um, and that's because of how strong my higher time frame bias and my higher time frame narrative actually is, right? So, when you have a strong higher time frame bias in place, it makes it easy because on the lower time frame, then you don't even have to think too much because, you know, you pretty much are just following the higher time frame. Obviously, here in PM we did have a bit of a run lower, um, but on like a higher higher time frame perspective, I am still bullish, right? What I think could happen short term is I think we could take out a session liquidity pool just like this and then have some type of long set up to the upside. But, my A+ setup, right? Even in this scenario, yes, short term we may take out that AM low, but I care more about the long term, the higher time frame, right? So, if higher time frame I'm bullish as hell, then I don't want to be shorting on the lower time frame. You can short, yes, but it'll be a lower probability setup, right? It can play out, for sure, but it would be like a B-rated setup, you know? Hopefully that makes sense. Um, that's just kind of how I see the markets right now. And yeah, we'll go over VWAP as well real quick. Hopefully this is a good session you guys, um, are understanding this and I'm not overcomplicating it. I'm really trying to keep things as simple as possible. Um, we'll turn off all of this. I really don't look at ES too too much. Um, ES I only look at SMTs. I really don't look at anything else. So, we're not even going to include, um, ES for right now because we're just covering VWAP, right? So, coming back to what I was talking about before, when price trades away from the center of the VWAP, you can see how price reacts, right? We tap into the center point, the blue line, out of the VWAP, we run higher, and we start to consolidate, we absorb price, and then distribute lower. Why? Because this green line, this is the deviation band, if we take a look at the indicator or even just the normal indicator as well. Right here. These are all basically deviations, right? So, this really will tell a huge story especially Here, let's get rid of this. Especially the deviations that are one deviation and two deviations. If we turn on this indicator, we also get um the second deviation. You can see how powerful it pretty much is, and how it actually supports price, right? So, this alone is something lower time frame that you can take entries off of, right? Sometimes I enter off of the main VWAP. I also use things that are aligned, right? Say here we were bullish, we have OTE aligned here as well. Look at this, VWAP plus OTE, bang, rip to the upside following my higher time frame bias, right? Hopefully this is making sense to you guys, but you see how um this long actually here, for example, is actually a perfect example, right? I'm going to turn off this indicator because it's ugly as hell, and I don't like the shaded boxes, and yeah. Also, um onto the Only Ticks indicator, I think I'm also going to add in one more deviation on the VWAP because it is super super um dialed in. You can see how precise it is, right? That third deviation, or that second deviation, sorry. The the green line is the first deviation. I think we're actually going to add in one more before Sunday because it is even more precise because the more that unbalanced price is away from the center point of all of that volume for the day or for the session, then the more it will pretty much want to draw back there at least to rebalance price, right? So, if we're bullish as hell, We We're going to take a quick break from the charts right now. Low-key going to interrupt um the educational session, but we'll get right back to it in just 1 second because I want to announce that on May 31st, I'm doing a prop firm giveaway where I'm giving away five 50K prop firm accounts. For the last giveaway, I announced the winners on my Instagram story, and they all got their accounts. Also, this next Sunday, on May 31st, we're wrapping off the month, might as well give away some prop firm accounts. All that you have to do to enter the prop firm giveaway is use code crabs at Lucid or at Alpha or at Goat Funded Futures. It's up to you which firm, you know, you like more, but when you use code crabs at checkout, it gets you pretty much the maximum discount that you can on that prop firm. If you want to be entered into the giveaway next Sunday, on May 31st, all you got to do to enter is use code crabs at checkout at Lucid, Alpha, or Goat Funded Futures. Just DM me a screenshot on Instagram saying use my code. I'm going to screenshot it, and then I'll put it into my photo album where I'm selecting the winners out of that, pretty much. So, yeah, stay tuned for the giveaway winners. I'm going to be announcing them on my Instagram @CrabTrades. Enough yapping, let's actually lock back in on the charts. Let's go. So, if we're bullish as hell, we can even just close above it. For example, right here, close above it, re-tap it, and then rip up to the upside, right? Towards what? Towards the first deviation. Here we consolidated a little bit right here before distributing back up to the upside. And as well as right here, we trade back, we start to shift structure above that first deviation of VWAP. And you can see when price returns back to it, this is how you know we're pretty much in a very, very trending market. When we're in a very, very trending market, we start to respect that second deviation of the VWAP after we close above it, right? So, here we trade up, we distribute up, right? Let me change this color. Hold up. Uh we'll do this blue, blue for distribution. We distribute to the upside, then what? We consolidate a little bit, right? Price absorbs, it consolidates, whatever you want to call it, and then we distribute back down towards what? Towards the first deviation of the VWAP right here. Here we absorb, we consolidate a bit before distributing back up to the upside. So, hopefully this kind of visual drawing helps you understand that this is pretty much how price acts, right? It consolidates at key levels, it distributes, and then it consolidates. Here maybe there was some other level, right? Maybe there was something holding up price here. Maybe there was something like an unfilled gap, right? An unfilled daily gap or something even. Price will be unbalanced, right? Like when we trade away, and then price will want to rebalance um where that key volume is pretty much, right? This is a perfect example right here. Distributing back up after we rebalanced the first deviation of the VWAP. And then you can see higher time frame, we run back. Also, minimum RR that I trade with is a like this. One second. I don't take one to ones, bro. 2.5 R. Yeah, with only takes V2, I run 10-point stops, 2.5 R TPs. Um but yeah. I forgot to mention that. My bad. I hope you guys don't think I'm taking one-on-one trades. Um but yeah. This is like the battle-tested best rescuer award based on literally 5,000 trades that I had a AI system um back test. Like I I know you guys have probably seen some of my videos on Instagram or something where I'm talking about um all the AI stuff I'm working on like Blaze Prop, Neon Building, um a trading bot that's automated and that actually trades prop firms. Um it's actually like mad close to passing an account right now. So, stay tuned for that. I think it's going to pass its first eval fully automated I think next week, like this coming trading week. But yeah, that's not what this uh session is about. Hopefully, you guys just understand though the bias and the entries, how we consolidate, distribute, consolidate, you know, absorb, and then distribute back up. And here would be a perfect long setup example of using only ticks V2. And I am leaving out one concept. I'm leaving out the absorption. This I'm going to cover over the webinar, right? Or day one, honestly. So, make sure to be there for both of the days because I'm going to be dropping so much sauce. Also, setups just like this one right here are pretty much setups that I've been taking all week. Here was a day trading on the Lucid Prop Firm accounts that I have. Ended up upping like five racks just on Lucid alone. Also, setups just like this where it's like a retest off of VWAP are setups that I've pretty much been taking in the live market as well. Here was some Lucid accounts I upped five racks on the day just on Lucid alone. And it was a setup just like this, honestly. This was um I believe in Asia session. But yeah, if anybody has any questions, make sure to drop them in the comment section below or in the WhatsApp group or you know, just DM me. I'm here to help you guys and I'm here to help you guys grow with me as well. Also, I want to give a huge shout out to a lot of the students this year who have been working with me one-on-one. A lot of them are starting to get some good ass results even just two to three months into my, you know, coaching program and it honestly it is making me holy stutter. Honestly, it is making me feel so fulfilled that I can actually help you guys pretty much and I can help benefit your own training, right? I've seen a lot of you guys are getting funded, you're passing more accounts. Like Calypso literally started working with him one-on-one before he even had a prop firm payout and now he just passed two accounts, two new fundeds. Oh my gosh, bro. Y'all are actually making me so happy. We got Curdy securing more payouts. Curdy's a beast. Um we got more accounts passed, payout right here. Cross some accounts, I think. Um first ever payout after nearly two years, bro. I remember Old Boy's also was in my live trading a while ago and yeah, it's super dope. 10 racks in two days. Raff, [ __ ] beast, bro. My bad for cursing. Here was a a long setup I took on some apexes as well. I think I did the trade recap on that on YouTube as well. But yeah, just overall super super hyped to see everybody this year kind of going up in a upwards direction, right? Higher time frames bullish, right? For everybody in this group and it honestly makes me so happy. Here we have first payout of the year. Oh, where'd it go? First payout of the year. Absolute beast bro. And yeah. Just want to show this because no matter where you're currently at in your trading right now, whether you're blowing accounts, whether you're crashing out, whether you're not where you want to be, just know that it does always get better. And as long as you stay doing the right inputs, you are actually doing the things that matter, you're being disciplined, you're trying to learn more every single day, you're on your charts during the trading sessions that you should be trading, then you're going to get the results that you want, bro. It's just inevitable to succeed when you put so much input into something. Uh I don't want to turn this into like a motivational speech, but it honestly might just be true, right? The more inputs you put into something, the better output that you get, and you start to get all of those things in your life that you never would have thought you could have achieved, right? Whether you were somebody that wasn't even sending out profits in the profit chat or in the testimonials, and now you're one of these people who are actually crushing it, just know that every single input, every single thing of procrastination was worth it. And a lot of people who are not really where they want to be just yet are just people that have been procrastinating doing the things that they know they should be doing, right? Also, I want to give a huge shout-out to some of the people inside of the webinar WhatsApp group on May 23rd to the 24th, so this weekend, literally tomorrow, on Saturday and Sunday at 5:00 p.m. EST, I'm hosting a free live webinar where I'll pretty much be going over every single thing in detail, pretty much even more sauce than I just dropped in this YouTube video. This YouTube video, I'm not going to lie, this is something that I've been gatekeeping for a little bit, and I have been developing it even more. That's kind of why I haven't been talking about some of these concepts, it's because I've been battle testing and seeing what works the best, which concepts, you know, are executing the best, the most precise, and that's literally everything that I've been trading now. So, yeah, as a trader, me personally, I can always get better, I can always grow, I can always learn, and a lot of what Only Ticks V2 is is is just late nights of me being in the charts, just testing new things, developing new concepts, and finding out the few most precise best ones, and combining them all into one. That's literally what Only Ticks Model V2 is. And here in the eye, if you know, you know, I'm just going to say that. If you know, you know, but comment below what y'all think this means, right? Actually, this is W um engagement, right? Comment below what you guys think the meaning is behind the eyes of this Only Ticks logo. Also, let me pull up the actual logo so y'all could see it. Here we go. Look at how fast I just did that. I might be actually goated. But yeah, looking deep into the eye, the eye has a very deep meaning in general in life as well, right? So, zoom in here. Comment below what you think that this means because this is pretty much Only Ticks, right? This is what Only Ticks is based off of as like the foundation, right? And here are some students from the webinar WhatsApp group. If you guys want to join the webinar on Saturday and Sunday, so tomorrow is the first day, 5:00 p.m. EST, and Sunday is the second day as well, then the first link in the description of this video is where you can join, and people are already getting good ass results in my webinar group. So, we got Angel, I've just got a payout with My Funded Futures and invested it into Amp Live, best decision I've ever made. I've gotten like 10 payouts with MyFundedFutures. Hell yeah, what a what a beast inside of this webinar group, bro. As well as Camden, also, just secured a prop firm payout. Life is good. Prop firm payout secured at 7:00 a.m., bro. 7:50 a.m. Easy. Probably had a good ass day after this, right? Those are like the best days. After you secure a payout, you know, you just go on about your day, you go to the gym, and you go on a drive. Those are I swear, those are the best days, bro. When you get that payout, it just makes everything so euphoric in general. Um but yeah, I'm going to stop yapping, and we'll do this final one, and then I'm going to wrap this up because this is a long ass YouTube video. I made eight racks across seven accounts, 1669 each. Beautiful, right? So, these are just some of the people inside of the webinar group. There's a lot more just like them in my entire community in general is, honestly, bro, there's some really good traders in my community, and I've watched them actually grow over time, right? Over months, even some some have been in there for like a year or two at this point. Like, I believe the Discord is like 3 years old or like 2.5-ish cuz I started it even when I learned how to when I was learning how to trade a while ago, right? But yeah, webinar this weekend, May 23rd and the 24th as well. My bad, I was just double-checking the date. Um to make sure I don't stumble on my words, but yeah, first link in the description below. I'll see you there, 5:00 p.m. Until next time, hit that like button, comment something below, comment what you think the meaning of the eyes is, and subscribe if you're new here. Until next time, peace out.
