My Trading Strategy Is Boring, But It Makes Me $80,000/Month

I've been trading for the last seven years and during that time I spent countless hours along with thousands of dollars on education courses, mentorships, all trying to figure this out. And the result, I kept on losing, blowing numerous accounts and making the same mistakes over and over again. And after hitting my breaking point and losing everything, I decided to start from scratch and build my process from the ground up. I simplified everything, developed a real system, a repeatable strategy, and focused on what actually works. Now, I'm able to trade full-time, and generate consistent profits in the markets. And in today's video, I'm going to break down the exact strategy that I use every single day. It's simple to understand, doesn't rely on any indicators, and can be repeated day after day. So, in today's video, I'm going to talk about how to find explosive moves with continuation. And this is what I call my A+ setup. And as you can see right here, this is my P&L for the last 30 days. And I'm up over $80,000 last month trading. And the concepts that I'm about to teach you in this video allowed me to have these big outlier days to catch these really strong momentum moves on the higher time frames with continuation. And as you can see, I've kept my losses to a minimum because I've been able to identify these higher time frame setups. What I want to mention here is that I have been trading for over seven years. Trading is not a get-rich quick scheme. I lost for many years in the markets until I was able to fully find consistency and edge in the markets. And in today's video, the goal is to be able to identify a clear, simple setup on the higher time frames. You'll learn one trading setup that is repeatable and mechanical. You'll also be able to identify momentum opportunities using higher time frame structure. You'll understand how to execute trades with clarity and consistency. And the best part is how to remove the guesswork out of your trading and only focus on high probability setups. So with that being said, let's get right into the video. So as you can see, we have a chart pulled up. And has this ever happened to you? We have a nice range in the markets. We have a nice break underneath our key level of support with displacement. As you can see, markets are now continuing towards the downside. We end up having a nice retest right off our key level of support turn into resistance. We have strong price action. We have our confirmation candle. We also have a clean retest. We end up entering in with our stop loss just to break above. And now we're looking for our continued move towards the downside. And what happens? As you can see, we end up immediately getting stopped out. And now you're confused. You did everything right, but lost money. And what is the reasoning behind this? The reason being is because you didn't pay attention to the higher time frames. And in this case, the daily chart was in a clear uptrend. And this is the mistake that ruins most traders because if you don't pay attention to the higher time frames, you're going to take a lot of unnecessary losses that can be avoided if you understand what's going on on the higher time frame charts. And that's exactly what I want to talk about in today's video is we want to be focusing on the daily time frames, which is of course the higher time frames. And if we can understand the higher time frame charts, that is going to be very powerful. If we understand what's going on in the higher time frames, it's going to make it a lot easier to trade when we're on those lower time frames. So, as you can see right here, what we have is the one minute chart. And a lot of times when we're on the one minute chart, we're sometimes confused on what we're looking for because there's no real clear direction. And you can see right now we're currently chopping around. And sometimes when we look at the one minute time frame, we can maybe see so many different trading opportunities. Maybe we want to go long here right off the bat for continuation, but it ends up breaking structure. So potentially we want to flip short and now we reclaim back again. So we can be very confused on what we're looking for, especially when we're on the lower time frames. And why is this the case? The reason why this is the case is because there's too much noise. whenever we're fixated on those lower time frames, there's so many different candlesticks that are forming because it's on a one minute chart compared to, of course, the higher time frame. So, when there's too much noise on the lower time frames, we can get confused. We can see things that actually aren't as clear on the charts and that causes us to take unnecessary trades. So, what is the solution to this case? The solution is simply when in doubt, zoom out. You guys have probably heard this plenty of times before, but this is very true in the markets. And this is always going to be true. Whenever you're confused and you don't understand what you're looking for, zoom out on the charts. When the higher time frames is more clear, that's when you're going to have a lot more clear of an understanding of what's going on. If you don't understand what's going on on the higher time frame, you have no business being on the lower time frames. So, what we want to focus here today is clear trends in the market. And as you can see right here, what we're on is the daily chart. And what makes a clear uptrend in the markets? To simply put it, the best uptrend in the markets create higher highs, higher lows. We create higher highs, higher lows, and we continue towards the upside. This is the simplest way to identify a uptrend in the markets. And the same thing of course happens to the downside. And one of the main questions to ask ourselves, we see so many different trends in the markets. What is one main confluence? In my case, I use one indicator to help filter out if it's going to be a strong uptrend or a weak uptrend. And there's one main thing that we can add as a confluence. And this is one indicator that we can use, which is the 9 EMA. The 9 EMA is a very powerful indicator that if we put onto our charts, this is a momentum indicator. You'll see that a lot of the times whenever price pulls back down in towards that 90 EMA, this is when we have those explosive moves. You can see price once again breaks out, retest that 90 EMA, what happens? Explosive move towards the upside. So, whenever price retests this 9 EMA on the charts, you will see that there's a lot of big moves off that 9 EMA. And this is specifically on the daily time frame. And that's when we're going to get those multi-day runners with continuation is when we bounce off the 9 EMA on the daily chart. So, what is the 9 EMA? Otherwise known as the 9 exponential moving average. Essentially, what it is, it's a short-term moving average that tracks price very closely. So, it's a 9 EMA. So, it tracks the last nine candles. So, it tracks something that's very close. So, we're using the most recent price action that we have. And that's why it's best for momentum because we're looking at the most recent price action. It's really good for momentum trading. You can use this on the higher time frames as well as intraday price action as well. Most people use this on the lower time frames. Most people don't use this on the higher time frames, but this is one of my favorite indicators to use, especially if you want to know if a stock is about to break out on the daily chart. And why do traders use it? to identify short-term trend direction. Acts as dynamic support and resistance levels, helps with timing entries on pullbacks, and it's great for scalping, of course, if you're on the lower time frames, and if you're on the higher time frames, that first pullback does get bought up. So, in a clear uptrend, price stays above the 9A, and the 90 EMA will act as support. We'll be looking for pullbacks personally into those key levels. And of course, strong trends, price barely touches the levels, and we end up having that nice continuation higher in a downtrend. It is the complete opposite. Price will stay below the 9 EMA. EMAs will act as resistance now since we're underneath the EMAs. And of course, pullbacks into it is shorting opportunities for continuation lower. Some of the common mistakes when trying to use these EMAs is number one, using it in a choppy market. As you guys know, EMAs and the break and retest in itself works best in of course trending markets. So, if you use it in choppy markets, you're doing yourself a disservice. You're going to get chopped around looking for whatever trades in the markets trying to figure out if markets are trending. But whenever the markets are choppy, you're going to get a lot of false signals and false breakouts. That is one common mistake. And the second one is blindly buying and selling every touch. Very similar thing. If you're using this in a choppy market, you are going to get chopped around. So that's why you want to wait for of course continuation markets. And that's when these EMAs and this of course works the best. So now let's talk about my three daily setups that I love to use on the higher time frames along with the 9 EMA. Number one, the flag pattern. Number two, the cup and handle. And number three, a downtrend break. Let's go on to the first example. As you can see right here, what we have is the daily chart. We're on Intel here. And as you can see, Intel has been very strong. How do we know Intel has been very strong? Number one, we can look at the daily chart. Number two, we can pay attention to this 9 EMA. As you can see right here at the start of April, Intel broke out of our key consolidation levels and we started rallying towards the upside. And as you can see, price gravitates away from this 9 EMA. And once it gravitates away from the 9 EMA, you can see it starts to consolidate and we create what's called a bull flag. So we have our 9 EMA here. We have this bull flag and what happens? Explosive move towards the upside. Of course, we did have earnings on this day, but this is a great technical setup that aligned with news. And this is what happens when technicals align with news. We have explosive moves towards the upside. So this is a great example of a flag pattern on the daily time frame. We have that pull back down in towards that 90 MA. Explosive move right off that 90 EMA. As soon as we touch it, we have that nice continuation towards the upside. Number two, a cup and handle. This is on MU. As you can see right here, price is originally in a downtrend. Once we reclaim back above the EMAs, once we got back above that nine right here, we end up having that nice push towards the upside. What happens in this case? You can see price creates the cup and now we create the handle. As you can see, this 9 EMA flips. We're coming back into a key level of support. You can call this a cup and handle. You can call this a daily flag as well. But price consolidates right underneath our key level of resistance. Taps that 90 EMA. And what happens next? Continuation towards the upside. you can see nice break above our all-time highs and we end up having nice continuation on this day. So another good example is once it touches that 9 MA and flips that's when we can see and that's when we can expect more momentum towards the upside. And the third setup what I have here is the downtrend break. As you can see right here what we have is Tesla on the daily time frame and see we've been clearly in a downtrend here on Tesla. We have multiple touches. If we were to draw this downtrend here, this one has been clearly lagging the overall markets and what happens here. As you can see, Tesla's been lagging behind, but what we have drawn out is this 9 EMA. And as you can see, as soon as price closes back above this 90 MA, we end up reclaiming back above key levels as well. Explosive move towards the upside. So, we had this downtrend break drawn out. And once we are able to reclaim back above, break above this trend line here. Tesla explosive move higher. And this day here on Tesla was one of the better trades of the year. This one ended up having a super solid push towards the upside right off of that downtrend break. And of course, once it broke back above that 9 EMA, that's when we had that nice continuation higher. So, these three are some of my favorite setups while using the daily time frame and while using the 9 EMA as a confluence. So, with that being said, let's hop right into the charts to see exactly what this looks like in real time. So, as you can see right here, what we have is the daily chart pulled up. And what we want to do is head on to the indicators tab and we want to add in our nine exponential moving average. So once we click this indicators, what we can type in here is exponential moving average. And as you can see, this is really the first thing that pops up. It's called the moving average exponential. Once we click this, it's actually the default setting. So we don't have to do anything. As you can see right here, what we have is the EMA, and the default setting already defaults it to 9 EMA. So you don't have to change anything whatsoever. And you can see it's already plastered on our charts here. And this is currently on Intel. And this was the example that we talked about earlier. As you can see, nice flag pattern formed right at our 9 EMA. Explosive move towards the upside. And as you can see, look at how strong of a move Intel's had because we've been above our 9 EMA. There's so many trading opportunities above our 9 EMA, and that's when the momentum is the best. So this is basically how this ticker works. If I zoom out here, you can see similar thing before. Once we were riding above the 90 EMA, that's when we had really solid trading opportunities. Underneath the 90 EMA, a little bit more consolidation. Once again, broke back above it earlier before 2026. Really solid trading opportunity once 2026 hit. We end up riding that nicely towards the upside. A lot of nice trading opportunities here. But you can see more consolidation. That's when we do not want to be trading. Once the 9 EMA starts to slow down, there's not really any clear breaks above the 90 EMA. We're kind of just flirting above and below it. don't really want to be trading in this area, but as soon as it gets back above the 90 EMA, that's when we're in a very clear trend in the markets. And this is exactly when we want to be looking to take trades is when there's a clear continuation on the higher time frames. So, with that being said, we understand the general idea of how to use the 9 EMA in combination with the daily chart. Now, let's go on to some examples that we have. So, the first example that we have here is on Nvidia. As you can see, Nvidia really has been consolidating for the past 6 months. You can see the 9 EMA here is just kind of ranging. We get above it, get below it. Nothing's really happening here on the daily chart, but we end up having this nice push down in April. We end up retesting our higher time frame level of support, broke back above, and now you can see we're starting to see this nice push above our 9 EMA. So, you can see nice rally here off those April lows. The Q's bouncing here nicely as well. And you can see Nvidia is now breaking above our key level of resistance. So as you can see right here, we have this consolidation. Price finally breaks above that 196. What we like to see here now is the break and retest above our 196 for continuation up in towards our all-time highs. So in this case, what we have here is that 9 EMA. We also have our range that we broke above. Now we want to see that retest for continuation. If we play out the daily time frame, you can see price taps in perfectly right off that 9 EMA. So coming into the next day, what we're looking for, as I mentioned, is continuation towards upside. As long as you can maintain above that 196, which is our clear level of resistance now turn into support. We can be looking for a push back up in towards our all-time highs key area. So once we get that tap of that 90 MA, now we can be looking for continuation higher. So now we are on the 15minute time frame. We understand that the daily chart is bullish. We're leaning more towards the upside. Based off of the daily chart, we're forming a flag above our previous level of resistance now turning into support. What are some triggers that we're looking for and the setup that we can use intraday for a continue push higher. So the key levels that I personally have marked out coming into this day was that previous day highs. Other level was our higher time frame level of support which is our 199. We can be looking for a couple things. number one break and retest off that 200 for continuation higher. We have our pre-market highs. We can be looking for the pre-market high retest or of course above our previous day highs for continuation towards the upside. So based off intraday price action, there's a couple things that we can be looking for here on Nvidia. And as you can see right there within the first 5 minutes, look how strong Nvidia is within that first 5minute candle pushing price towards the upside. So in this case, we are very bullish here on Nvidia. the higher time frames is aligned. First five minute candle is very bullish. So in this case, we're looking for that break and retest above our previous day highs or now we'd be waiting for that pre-market high retest for continuation higher here as well. Let's just mark out that pre-market high and now we can play out the tape. As you can see here on Nvidia, price has a little bit of reaction here off that previous day highs. Comes back down in towards our pre-market highs. And as you can see, buyers are stepping in very nicely. And this is where I personally go long here on Nvidia. We're building up higher lows. We also have the 9 EMA on the fivem minute time frame that's building up very nicely. I like Nvidia on the higher time frames. We can have our entry here stop loss break underneath that 2011. And in this case for our targets, what we can be looking to target is, of course, number one, our first key pivot high, which is that 203. And then we do have targets all the way back towards the upside. Here on the daily chart, we have our all-time highs. we have this daily gap. So, we have so many targets here on Nvidia and we're essentially looking for, of course, continuation back towards the upside. So, let's mark out some of these targets. And now, let's play out the tape. And as you can see right there on Nvidia, we finally hit our higher time frame targets. Of course, on day number one, we could have been looking to scale. We had a daily gap there as well. If you go onto that 5m minute time frame, you can see, look at how nice of a hold here on that 5m minute 90 EMA and we had super solid momentum towards the upside. This would have got you all the way close to high of day. This is that first candle that broke underneath that 5m minute 90 EMA and this would have got you as I mentioned close to high of day. So the trade from all the way down in towards that 203 up in towards that 209 would have offered you a fantastic opportunity especially if you're managing it here on that 5inut time frame. So, with that being said, you can see this is a great example of using that higher time frame daily chart 9 EMA. And then you can see on the 5minut time frame, you could have been using that 9 EMA as well for this push all the way back up and towards the highs. Now, with this being said, let's go on to the next example that we have for us today. So, as you can see right here, the next example that I have is on MU, and we're on the daily time frame. You can see MU recently came off our all-time highs. We ended up having a nice bottom here in April with, of course, the rally with the rest of the names as well. And now you can see what we're creating here on the higher time frames is something called a cup and handle. As you can see, price is gravitating towards the upside. Now we're having a little bit of reaction here off our all-time highs and we're creating a mini handle here. Looking for, of course, continuation higher. You can call this a mini handle. Some people call this a daily flag. Regardless, higher time frames is bullish. And now you can see this 9 EMA is flipping here as well. So, as you can see, the 9 EMA is coming up. We have multiple touches right off that 9 EMA. And usually when price comes back to that daily chart on the 90 EMA, that's when we have explosive moves. To put it simply, whenever price gets farther away from the 90 EMA, we usually like to retest this 90 EMA and price ends up having these big moves off of course that moving average for continuation. This is one of the healthiest trends that you see on the daily time frame is that when the markets move far away from the moving averages, they usually come back to retest that moving average for continuation higher. So in this case, you can see we're creating that daily flag. And now what we can be looking for is of course continuation towards the upside. One of the main triggers that we can be using for continuation on the lower time frames is of course the break above our previous day highs. So once price breaks above our previous day highs, this is a good sign that price is going to continue higher. You can see in this day, right, price never broke above our previous day high. So we're going to be patient. This day right here, price never broke above its previous day highs. But as you can see in the pre-market, we're breaking above our previous day high. So this is the day that we're going to be paying attention for continuation higher. So in this case, what we can have marked out is of course that previous day high level. Drag this down. Other levels that we can have marked out here as well is of course going to be the high from the day previous. So for MU longs above our 464 in play or longs above our 456 for continuation towards the upside. As I play out the tape, as you can see right here on MU so far within the first 30 minutes of market open, kind of just consolidating. We're right around this 464. We came back close to that retest of this pre-market high along with our previous day highs here. If we can see that reclaim back above. In this case, I opted in for the reclaim trade. Actually took a trade earlier in the day, stopped out, but the thesis was still valid. Once we reclaimed back above, that's when I took the second entry here on MU. As you can see right here, we ended up having that strong reclaim. This is where I got in stop break underneath this key level. And of course, what I was looking for in this case was continuation back up in towards our all-time highs, key levels. So, this is exactly what I was looking for here on MU with the stop loss just to break underneath. Now, let's play out the tape. And as you can see right there on MU, once we had that strong reclaim back above our 464, that's when we had nice continuation back towards the upside. And of course, if you're looking at this on the daily chart, you can see perfect bounce right off that 9 EMA. You can see this next daily candle once we closed back above our previous high, their next target was, of course, our all-time highs and above. And this was a great example, of course, looking for continuation back towards the upside. And as you can see, we're on my final example, which is on Tesla. We're on the daily time frame. And as you can see, Tesla to start off 2026 has been in a very clear downtrend towards the lows. Every single pop has been shorted. And as you can see, Tesla's pretty overextended towards the downside. You can see we've had multiple touches off this key level. And as you can see, coming into market open with that clear downtrend that I talked about on the higher time frames. Now, what I'm looking for is really this downtrend break here on Tesla. What we also have to keep in mind here as well is that we're actually closing back above this 9 EMA. So, we have that downtrend break plus we're closing back above that 90 EMA. Tesla now I'm interested for a potential move back towards the upside. So, we understand that Tesla's on watch. What is the trigger that we can be looking for Tesla continuation? The trigger is fairly simple. If we break above our previous day highs, hold above our previous day highs, the trigger is back towards the upside. Of course, if we never break above and we reject, then there's no trading opportunity. So, if you can break above and hold, that's going to be key for continuation. So, now let's play out the tape. So, as you can see right here, within the first 15 minutes of market open, price rejects, but now we have a strong break above. You can see immediate buyers stepping in right off this key level. Now, we're looking for, of course, continuation towards the upside. As you can see right here on Tesla, we flip back above that previous day highs. We're fairly bullish. What we can be looking for is that first dip to go long on Tesla for continuation or we'd be waiting for the dip down in towards our previous day highs for a continuation higher here as well. I had this level marked out which was that order block. As you can see right here on Tesla, price comes right back down in towards our order block here. This is where I got in stopped just a break below. And what I was looking for here was of course continuation back towards the upside. We had targets all the way back up in towards our 384 here on the higher time frames. And as you can see right there on Tesla, beautiful trade towards the upside above our previous day highs. That was the trigger. We went for that first pullback long right down in towards a key technical level. And you can see we were just riding the momentum towards the upside. 9 EMA on the 5minute time frame is a great way to manage your position. And we end up trailing this all the way up and towards that 385 and above for a fantastic move on this day. And as you can see right there, that was another great trade. And all of these trades that we did take were live in real time inside of our community. With that being said, I hope you guys did enjoy the video. If you did and found some value, appreciate if you guys drop a like and sub. And with that being said, I'll see you guys next week for a brand new video.
