{image} {image} Still using this Strategy with success. Ive been absent from the forum for a while as I've been focusing on my family, trading, and still grinding away at my day job. The story I shared a minute ago IS AI GENERATED(Sorry for the haters hating AI) But after a lot of discussions about this strategy and how to interpret things we came up with that story. That story helped me look at things alot different. Felt like sharing and saying HELLO!!!!!!!!!! Hope all is well and green green green all day long for y'all!
Hey I see you're using this intraday on futures, are you looking for HTF confirmation or working within just one timescale? The centralized exchange of the futures market is more appealing to me, so I'm very curious to see what you're chart setup look like if you're willing to share!

Thanks

I trade Micro Nasdaq. That's it. 1 symbol. I've learned minor quirks, the way it moves after news, after big candles, small candles, you start seeing these micro patterns(at least you think you do haha)
I have Volume profile added to my right. Like to take trades at the extremes of high or low volume nodes depending on the day and how the market is moving.
I have adjusted the strategy a little bit to my own personal preferences(don't take these to heart because its against RH original way, but its working for me) I use %K instead of %D for the 5 min on futures, I think it has better reaction time. Since moves can end quickly with futures, the %D sometimes would get me in just a little too late.

I only take a long trade if the price is above Vwap, and only go short if the price is below Vwap, With this im trying to trade with institutions, Not against them.
Granted this only allows me to get maybe 2 or 3 good opportunites a day(sometimes more, sometimes NONE).

Anyways thats my chart. I like to keep it cleanish nowadays. Used to have 50 indicators on my screen. But RH's indicator on the bottom pane and the volume stuff on my screen is clean and simple for me to interpret.

Excellent, thank you.

Are you using any other confirmation to enter a trade besides where the oscillators are, volume profile, and VWAP? e.g. Any pricing patterns or otherwise? And do you have a method for exits? Or are you targeting the next HVN?

No other confirmation tools other than in my head. I don't mark support and resistance areas but they are clear on the chart when you zoom out. Depending on where price action currently is in relation to those imaginary lines definitely plays a part in trades. Wouldn't even be able to explain it really, But i do think about support and resistance.
I still use the 50 line cross. but sometimes both the stochastics cross while the RSI starts to hook the opposite way(I wont take that trade) I like when all 3 are genuinely pointing in the right direction(I kind of put an imaginary arrow on the ends of the oscillator lines)

Price patterns yes and no. I don't really follow the doji candles and bull or bear candles other than EXTREME ones like RH stated. Never take a trade after a HUGE candle or something along those lines. I find that to be true, actually I find it so true that you can sometimes use that as a play. GIANT candles usually snap back pretty quickly for quick little scalps while your waiting for a nice setup for a good run. That's a kind of an ICT type trade that I sometimes take.

Exits........
I don't know.
I always put a 1:2 risk to reward bracket on my trade no matter what. Just incase the internet shuts down or something, always be protective.
After I get a signal from the Indicators and my head says "yeah alright lets take a trade" My normal trades go like this:
3 Micro contracts. Stop at previous swing low, profit at 1x and 2x the risk. If I hit profit at 1x i take off 2 contracts and move stop to break even. At that point I like to start manually moving my break even stop higher and my target higher, since at that point I'm just in for the ride I ride it till basically I get stopped out on a pull back.

This isn't to say its the right way, I've missed some really good moves because I got stopped out from moving my stop too much to trail price. Never know how the market gonna move at any given time, so I try to protect the capitol I have without being too greedy, or too fearful.

I haven't figured that one out yet, and honestly I'm starting to come to terms with not figuring it out. Market is so random that something that works for a week wont work again for another couple months. So I just go with the flow, If I walk away with 100$ but I could have made 200$, it sucks, but I'm ok with it. Learn to be happy with what the market gives you.

{quote} Hey everyone, hope you guys are doing well. Just wanted to provide the update now that we have completed August. Below are the stats from Jan to Aug. I know few of you will have similar questions to last time, so please revisit all my previous posts and screenshots. I haven't changed anything from what i have posted already. All credits go to RH and his simple trading strategy. I cant thank him enough. {image} {image} {image} {image} {image} {image} {image} {image}
Hey guys,
Hope you all are doing well and looking forward to the festive season and the end to 2025.

At the start of this year, I had mentioned that to determine if any strategy works or not is to give it a go for couple of months and I had also mentioned that I would try this method until the end of 2025.

Over the last few quarters, I have also kept you guys updated with the progress on using this method. You can follow through some of my previous posts and checked the quoted post for previous quarters Monthly screenshots.

I can now confidently say that without any doubt, @RobinHood's TMS(r) is the REAL DEAL.

RobinHood has indeed given us "The Keys to the Kingdom". The proof is in the pudding.

Attached are the final 4 months (well I am finishing Dec early) of using this method (with few tweaks/tricks of my own, but nothing substantial).
For December, I did slightly better mainly due to increasing my contract size by 2x, that's it.

I think my job on this thread is done. If you want to follow this method, stick to what RobinHood preaches. I would also highly recommend reading through @emmanuel7788 posts. There are too many gold nuggets buried in the 568 pages.

All you need is to determine is HOW HUNGRY ARE YOU TO GET PROFITABLE IN 2026

I would like to thank RH from the bottom of my heart. I will be ever grateful for your posts, support, knowledge and guidance.

Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
Wishing you all profits galore in

Sure! Here's the translation of your text into English:

Hello, thank you very much for these shares. I know the question I’m asking might be tiring and annoying, and I hope you understand me. I realize I have missed a lot in your posts. If possible, it would be great if you could share the strategy and indicators you use and explain them in detail. I would really appreciate it in advance.

How to avoid such scenarios (1M gold futures)? 1 candle is the set up candle (black crossed the yellow and closed), 2nd candle looks almost good but one stock line hasn't crossed yet, 3 candle is the entry candle (everything crossed and closed), but then.... took the low of candle 1 (SL). so many times it happens...
Ignore the blue and red arrows, they dont belong here.

You may have more success trading higher time frames. I don't see Roscearm posting anything lower than M5.
M15 will give you more time to make decisions and learn the system. Also it's not the best time of year to trade perhaps wait until the after the New Year when there is more liquidity in the market and less crazy wicks like today?

I understand that you trade only three pairs on the 5-minute timeframe with a 1:2 risk–reward ratio. Even with just three pairs, you still get many signals each day — how do you filter and choose only a few? What criteria do you use?

In a long position, if the first and second candles after entry are bullish, but the third candle closes as a bearish candle, should I exit the trade even if the price hasn't reached my initial stop loss (the low of the two candles prior to the entry candle)? And if the following candle turns bullish again, should I re-enter the long position? Is my understanding correct?

I can't remember which post it was, but i recall RH saying he has M3 and M5 charts open simultaneously, with M15 as the higher timeframe.

He never said why, but the charts do.

Which timeframe shows more clearly one of the best entry patterns he has ever seen? (post 10,758)
