After several months of testing, I can confidently say that this strategy does not work! don't waste your time on it. The author tells the same fairy tale on Discord. The author is looking for attention, nothing more. I was removed from Discord for these words. If you say it works, show your statment!!!!!!

After 77 years putting up with idiots in this world, I don't seek attention young fella.
... my best advice to you is to just get a job, and forget about trading.

No amount of indicators, EA's, training and mentorships will help those who are too lazy to do the work to develop their own Strategy and trading plan.

Personally I have moved on to Futures Trading and this strategy is not good with my broker Apex Trader Funding because trades must be closed end of day (5:00pm NY)

I am now $550,000 funded with Apex using just my knowledge, trading 1min and 5sec charts... and adding more $50k PA's till I have 20.

Goodbye.

For those disbelievers out there, this is what 25 years studying has given me...
I've bought 26 $50k evaluations with Apex the last 2 months, and I've passed 11 of them, giving me $550,000 funding.

These are not traded using the Swing Trades Strategy, as it's not suited to Apex rules of closing all open trades at 5pm NY every day.
I'm trading Apex using a new Strategy I developed myself while in The Trading Game discord the last 4 months.

Shown below is screenshot of this months trading (1st May - 22nd May), and another showing the 11 PA's I've acquired so far.

8 of those accounts are now each eligible for $2,000 payout ($16,000).

Honest admission coming in from left field... and a lesson on when not to trade.

I eventually became funded with 20 PA's of $50k with Apex... total $1mill.

I qualified for payout on 8 accounts ... total $16k.
Before payout approval I was diagnosed with a Cancer and tilted a bit in my trading.
That "tilt" caused my balances to drop below the payout drawdown level, and I was denied.

Over the next 3 or 4 weeks I lost all 20 accounts due to over trading and stupid decisions... mainly brought on by stress and maybe 10% by market conditions.

I am still battling with my health and have not traded at all for about 4 months.

Lesson:
DON'T trade if there is stress in your life, whether it be personal or business.

I have no doubt that this system will be profitable. I have only read post #1 of cause and I don't know what else has happened.

I will make an indicator that can give alerts on every setup. Then we can have multiple pairs, indicies or whatever going i parallel.

Next thing is to find some nice confluences to support taking the right trades.

Indicator coming up - but I have other projects on the desk right now, so maybe in a couple of weeks.

Sounds like a solid plan! Alerts for each setup would be incredibly helpful, especially when watching multiple pairs. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with — confluences will definitely add confidence to the entries. Take your time with the indicator, and good luck with your other projects in the meantime!

So my time has come to try the pinbar setup. But why stop there? I have started a new thread where I will build a Multi Signal Indicator. Right now it has Pinbars, Fakeys, and Engulfing signals. More will come. Much more.

I extended the trading to h1 and h4, as m30 was already very stressful.

TF: 80% of the trades were h1 and m30 trades, 20% h4

position size: as you have to trade quickly after the signal, I always took 0.10 lots per position for the sake of simplicity.

so after 5 days of trading, this is the negative trackrecord:
(i give it another try next week with new indicator from riskfighter)

Yep, also coded the strategy, doesn't work on long term on any asset.

I do not think this strategy works on it's own. You have to filter the signals using confluences.

I traded it for some days this week and I took less than half the signalled trades, because the signals did not align with my confluenses.

You can use the method under 3 conditions. Trending, ranging and trend changing. I intend in the beginning to selct signals that are trend continuing. These are the easist to trade. Using confluences I am pretty shure this will work.

My setup for next week is more complete than it was this week, so let's see how it goes.
