Trader Education - The Bigger Picture, A Complete Course

The objective of trading is not to successfully analyze the history fo the charts - we can leave that to the 90% that are consistently losing. The objective of successful trading is to understand HOW the market turns, WHY the market turns and WHEN the market turns. The rest is a statistical measure of movement which gives you consistency beyond any expectations.

To do this stay - dynamic and forget what you expect the market to do - turn with it. You'll soon realize that you're on 95% of all the big swings and your losses exist where there's just a couple of bumps in the road but those are the expense of doing business.

Realizing When, Where and How will keep you on the very hard right edge of the chart and trading a few candles into the future.

Import your widgets - this is business.

It's much easier than you think. To get there, EVERYTHING must be NON lagging. This was from Dec 23 alone. A fair bit more than 2%

The Key to Success In Trading is identifying how the market turns with statistical reliability.

Absolutely everything else is filler and that’s exactly where traders get lost. Soaking up everything they can on knowledge that does NOT work.

Guaranteed Pips- is there a statistically reliable method of finding profit daily? Yes

How - Opening your eyes AND mind to what’s already in front of you. It happens in all charts and is 87% reliable.

The response is typically “wtf” or “omg” when it’s seen for the first time under the right light.

Hi Csfxtrading,

What's needed to learn your method?
The other day I was there in your live demo for several minutes. I just saw these differently colored candles. Do you intent make new one?

Best regards

The candles... they merely simplify volume, trader aggression, price action on volume - which are visible in more visually intense models. The candles simplify it all and tell you exactly where the buys and sells are. So you must not have been in the session very long.

To learn the method, 1) wipe the slate clean. If you're not profitable now everything you've learned prior hasn't really worked yet. 2) Learn volume, price action on volume, tick analysis on volume 3) understand the trader failures of the larger time frames 4) Understand HOW the market turns and learn to see that in the price not merely on candle 5) Learn support and resistance through hybrid of BOTH candle price action and VOLUME - that becomes REAL support and Resistance, not theoretical Supply and Demand Zones or pivots.

The Options - Learn all those in the more extensive analytical version, or use the candle colors - they integrate ALL of it it

What is suggested though, is LEARN all of it first, it's intense. Then dive into the understanding how the candles are identified.

The candles are wrong - and the world accepts what it doesn't know.. This refers to the traditional candles that do not really display how the markets changing with volume, trader aggression, price action and statistics. Up and down doesn't mean diddly.

Let me be clear... it's not just my method, it's how the market moves. We just use proprietary tools to align you with those movements. When a trader is able to stay on the hard right edge of a the chart and understand the volume aspect of what goes into a candle's movement with all it's granularity - trading into the near future is easy.

I say this because to me a 'method' uses moving averages or quasi analysis to give you a generalized feel of direction. I want the precision of what the market's actually doing right now on this very candle. If it's a strong bullish push higher I want to know and the ONLY way to know is through intensive analysis. When that strong bullish move is over, I already know what to look for with statistical certainty to close the trade and that doesn't take place on the candles alone but traders will waste all of their capital thinking that the moment to exit is their moment to enter because they don't understand what's taking place inside the pricing. Thus retail buys and gets shaken out on near instant reversal.


I just spent decades to simplify it all.

Looks like you trade with no stop loss and not take profit. No take profit make sense for your method. But isn't it suicidal to trade without stop loss?

I personally use a mental stop as it's quicker but there are definitive price points for stops.

And keep in mind that having a firm grasp on what volume is doing up to the second very rarely allows a stop out. Understanding how the market moves and aligning my positions with that movement typically puts me on 80% of all market spikes or heavy drops as spikes and cliff jumps are all created by volume or a lack of supporting or resisting volume.

Sorry, I don't get you. How will the mental stop protect you when the market moves against your trade. Will you sit in front of the system all the time and close manually on your mental stop level?.

How can we learn your method if the available volume is not realistic to retail traders. As you mentioned, it cost a lot to get the real volume in Forex.
Don't say that we need to your brokerage account or buy your tool

That brings up a great opportunity to define your approach. Are you an investor or a trader? An investor uses some leverage but holds over long periods of time. 10% 20% even 30% per year are great returns.

A trader who is only interested in short term opportunities should not walk away from the charts if you're trading the lower time frames. I personally trade for an hour or two on days I trade - I remain selective on which days I do trade but everything is on the M1 time frame. It's all completely dynamic just many more opportunities with clarity on the M1 over the M30 or H1.

If I enter a trade, I know it's typically going to last just 4 - 5 minutes so no need to step away until I'm done with that trade. Moving against me is just 5 - 6 pips so that certainly doesn't scare me out of the market.

Here's a question. Given the same time on chart, which is more profitable 40 pips or 2 pips?

Yes volume isn't realistic in most cases - But Education and Analysis is only as good as you pay for. Free is just free, don't expect to get the ranch for free.

There are options

1) Do what you're doing now and get the same results.
2) Subscribe to the analysis and your results will be obvious.
3) Open an Account with ClearStreamFX and benefit by lower costs and the analysis
4) Or again..do what you're doing now to get the results you're getting now.

Yes. on any given day 2 pips walks circles around the guy that is looking for 40 pips.. because in the very same time frame you'll see 50 2 pip opportunities while the guy staring down the chart for a 40 pip opportunity hasn't seen one yet.

The market may have moved 20 pips total but you've collected 30...

I'd think that's why Commercial Members are labeled commercial.. as it's related to services be it Education, Research, Funding or...otherwise

My threads hold no punches, I promise that. What we do at ClearStreamFX isn't for everyone. Everyone would be those that think they are entitled to the decades of research and the bandwidth to provide them the data should be free. Sometimes its a year, sometimes 5 years but at some time later when they have burned through a half dozen accounts they think, maybe that guy was right, at that point they are typically very embarrassed to come back.

If you want an education that's second to NONE while it comprehensively teaches you how the market moves (not how we traders think it moves) Then you'll find benefit.

If you want a brokerage ( And you're outside of the U.S.) Our pricing can't be beat. Heck, add in the value of our Margin Free Credit lines and the combined services walk circles around all the other options out there.

For those that are seeking funding, we are the ONLY firm that offers trader funding on a net profit basis. Sure there are other options that make it impossible to qualify but at least they promise you high payouts. Let's come back to reality. If a fund wants profit, they want to make it easy for you to trade, not focus on the revenue on your losses. That's the difference.
