Aliassmith Beats a "Dead Horse"

[aliassmith]

I think dude almost got stopped out today but banked a $k with 1 contract.

This is what I saw setup:

So that is what ICT traded?

I think this is the trade he took in his community tab of youtube.
The above trade pics were just my interpretations of price.

Thats what I thought he showed BUT, that doesn't follow the model he outlined.

1 Mark your recent high and low before 8:30.
2 Wait until price closes above/below one of the lines.
3 Look for a strong move and a FVG.

Maybe I misunderstood #2

Risking 5% a trade is risky if you end up with a bad streak.

Using eights or some OPM method is doable and helps protect "Your Money". I'm not saying I don't gear my risk up at all. It can result in devastating losses.

After espip quit kreslik, I'm not sure what he did. He was always trading on an edge of a knife. Odds are he hit a bad streak at some point.

espip had to have an insane r:r. If i remember correctly his risk/sl was based on closes of a 1min/5min bars against his entry, while he often showed huge runners. I always wondered how he traded. I know he used volume, but unfortunately he left just before he was about to show us his technique.

Yes, on those longer timeframe Z-lines M15 and H1 he would do that. The bulk of his trading he did not show was M1/M5 scalping for 2 to 5 pips over about 20 trades per session. He used his 6th sense of order flow.

I don't know what to tell you. I have his charts saved and from what i remember you described his losses/min. profits on 1m/5min.Volatility was way bigger back than. The average profit trades he took with scalping were way bigger. His magic sauce was volume. A technique he was about to show before he was gone. He even opened a thread for this purpose, but than he got pissed @something and quit from the forum.

You have his charts saved, the ones he posted here?

I had a bunch of charts he didn't post here. I lost pretty much everything he sent me on another bad hard drive.

Yes he was going to do a thread but, I think PROcharge.. pissed him off again and he rage quit.

Yes yes volume. Volume as in order flow. He would tell me " look that is where buyers are starting to come in" etc etc.

Can you create an espip tribute thread and post all of his charts. There seems to be a lot missing from the forum these days?

Here is something espip told me "its a flow from each s/r area to the next--- via the PA and how it forms"

Also this "so i just take everything i see"

That's exactly what happened, just didn't want to point fingers I'm still mad/sorry he wasn't able to share this volume edge.
I had links to various ppl's saved posts posted somewhere on this forum, yours included, but i doubt they still work.

So here is the espip thread:

Dow Long M5 nice pinbar/hammer

Is that better PRO?
Aim for the pointy places?

SPACE.... what is it?

SPACE is the collection of pips/lines/dollars outside of your base account level that is used as a sword and a shield.

Example:
If you have a $100,000 account.
Position 1 is based on $333 risk.
You add,add,add to you position then Liquidate 80% of it on a pullback.
Your account now shows $103,000.
Your Space/Risk Box/Pip Cushion is anything from $1 to $3,000 now.
You continue to use that Space in the same position by adding and liquidating until you reach your TP/%goal or abandon your idea.

MO explained it as sword and shield.
When your position seems agreeable you attack by adding.
As you add your stop loss moves closer to youe position.
When your position seems to be weakening you reduce
Reducing is trying to get your stop loss behind a pointy place.
He mainly suggested the pointy place on higher timeframes.

That is only one vision of how SPACE can be used.

SPACE
I think MO sent this to me in Google Talk.
It looks like the other examples anyways.
