Below you can steal the exact strategy that makes me over 50/k month:🧵 **
To start off, we most understand the point of this strategy..
My goal is to simplify trading and look for repeatable patterns to trade–patterns that have played out for hundreds of years
We want to take advantage of strong market trends & use the leverage of options for a low risk high reward approach
Using big momentum swings in the markets we can catch the biggest moves to either side
The goal is to ride the trend. **

Below you can steal the exact strategy that makes me over 50/k month:🧵 **
To start off, we most understand the point of this strategy..
My goal is to simplify trading and look for repeatable patterns to trade–patterns that have played out for hundreds of years
We want to take advantage of strong market trends & use the leverage of options for a low risk high reward approach
Using big momentum swings in the markets we can catch the biggest moves to either side
The goal is to ride the trend. **
studying some of the trading greats I realized all of them have 1 thing in common...
They don’t take a thousand different trades a day on the lower time frames.
They patiently wait for the best opportunities in the markets coming out of the bigger time frames
Massive basses, these are where the account changing moves are. **
1. Finding the trend
The fastest and easiest way to figure out the trend is to:
Pull up a chart on
and add the 8, 21, 50 EMA’s
EMA’s can be used as a momentum gauge for when the markets are stronger and will trend higher tradingview.com **
2. Framework
Now that we have the EMA’s on the chart, we can make some rules for when we want to be active in the markets.
Just having this 1 simple rule can save you from chop and fighting against the markets.
Use $SPY / $QQQ
1) Whenever $SPY / $QQQ are above the 8/21/50 EMA’s, we want to be long with full size/conviction
2) Whenever $SPY / $QQQ are below the 8/21/50 EMA’s, we want to trade stocks to the downside–or avoid trading
We can also use this on the individual names we are trading to narrow down our criteria. **
once we establish which way the market is trending, we can start to scan for the strongest stocks(in an uptrend).
The markets are just now reclaiming the moving averages and entering another uptrend so we want to scan for leading stocks
The true market liquid leaders... these are the stocks you want to be in
You don’t have to be in every single stock to make a fortune, you just have to be in the right ones. **
3. Scanning for leading stocks
Easiest way to scan for liquid leaders is to use: tradingview.com
Click on screener section
We want to narrow it down to search for liquid stocks that are leading the market higher on volume
Here are the parameters I use in my scan:
Price > $3 Change > 0.01 Market cap > $300m+ Volume > 500k ADR > 2%
And most importantly the 21 and 50 EMA’s set to below price **
Now we have a list of the strongest and most liquid stocks in the market that are leading higher
Sort the list by volume descending
The best part about this scan is it always produces the best names, since leading stocks are above or coiled into their moving averages **
4. Setup
You want to start looking for tightness in these stocks
The reason why is because consolidation —> expansion in the markets
Think about stocks like coiled springs... the more coiled they get the bigger the move
I like to think about stocks movements as a staircase
Look to catch the next staircase in the market **
The goal is to find names that are either just breaking out or about to break out of tight bases
Use this checklist
1. Tight pattern or base 2. Low volume pullbacks 3. Consolidating near the highs of the base
Here are a few examples of setups I look for:
**
Scan through all these stocks and look for setups that match our criteria
we want to find 4-5 of the best looking setups and create something called a focus list:
a focus list is an actionable watchlist
by focusing on only a few of the best setups in the markets on the best stocks and themes...
we can stop ourselves from overtrading and focus on executing our plan. **
A setup that caught my attention on my scan:
$STX
The stock is consolidating in a massive daily base right into the 50 EMA
Volume is fading as volatility contracts
It has a clear trigger level to use
Its in a leading theme in data storage **
5. Entry
The easiest way to enter is to find a trigger level for the breakout
What I look for is the high of the base, breaking that level will trigger a big move
In this example, you can see the $280 price level has held multiple times
If price breaks above that level, then we can assume a daily breakout will occur
We want to confirm the breakout with lots of volume **
Execution is the hardest part of trading that’s why I want to simplify it by doing all the work the night and morning before
Pre planning the trade and using an:
If this —> then that approach
If price breaks this level —> enter the trade
I use volume to confirm the entry on the lower timeframes **
Entry is taken on a break above the trigger
For confirmation, we want to see high volume on a break out of the base.
For example $MU base breakout:
-Leading sector (Memory storage) -Massive daily and weekly base -Ton of volume on the breakout
Enter calls at the break above the trigger level **
We can use the 5m time frame to confirm our entry.
We are getting the magnitude of a daily and weekly breakout and using the lower time frames for a laser entry. **
Stop loss is placed at the low of the daily candle that broke trigger
to make sure that we manage our risk in case of a failed breakout **
7. Targets
Take profits at previous resistance levels
If the stock is at all time highs you can use fib targets and measured moves to calculate targets(Example below)
My scale out strategy is 25% of the position at a time and moving up stop to break even after first trim.
after third trim you leave runners with a trailing stop under the 8 EMA
This keep you from selling stocks too early **
This sets you up for a huge r/r trade
for breakouts we do not want the stock to comeback to our entry level
the strongest moves will lockout traders and keep running
this is why my scale strategy works so well to hold winners
BIG WINNERS / Small Losers is the goal
(You will have losses like any other strategy so risk management is the most important thing) **
Like any other strategy this is not a holy grail strategy but there’s a reason why some of the best traders in the world swing strong names, and buy leading stocks in leading sectors.
I’ve personally used this strategy to catch huge trades this year:
$TSLA +1500% $MSTR +1500% $JOBY +1000% $RKLB +500% $HOOD +500% $QBTS +450% **
I post these setups every night on my twitter with trigger levels, option contracts, and targets.
