[00:01] the best trading strategies to get started right now and make money trading. Throughout the video, I won't just explain the basis of each strategy; I'll also explain step-by-step how to trade with each one [00:16] and create a final table showing the difficulty level of each strategy. Keep in mind that I'll be covering six different profitable trading strategies that operate with different assets, timeframes, and [00:31] structures. This way, you can choose the trading strategy that you like best and that suits you best. I don't want you to see this video as a quick and easy way to become profitable traders and make money from [00:45] trading. While I will explain profitable trading strategies that explain profitable trading strategies that living from trading, you'll have to work hard to achieve that. [00:58] However, this video is a good way to learn about the best trading strategies available today and see if any of them catch your attention enough to visit my channel, check out one of my [01:12] playlists, or watch the free courses or full videos on profitable trading strategies. on the channel, so without further ado, let's get to the six best trading strategies that exist today. [01:26] trading strategies that exist today. Silver Bullet. We start with one of the most recognized trading strategies [01:38] among all ICT lovers: the Silver Bullet strategy. This is a trading strategy that I have already tested and analyzed on the channel, demonstrating that it is not nearly as profitable as they make it out to be. [01:54] trading strategy through which thousands of people obtain their funding accounts. The degree of difficulty of the Silver Bullet strategy is really high, even though it has four fairly simple steps. [02:11] You will then discover that it has infinite variables that can make the process of assimilating each and every one of them difficult and lengthy in order to be profitable with the strategy. The first two rules of the [02:25] Silver Bullet are to trade the Nasdaq 100. So you are going to come to the top type ndq. Once you have typed ndq, you are going to [02:37] add it to the chart and you are going to trade it only between 10 and 11 o'clock. Tomorrow, so you come back to the top left where it the top left where it says indicators and type Time Zone. [02:50] Click on Time Zone, and what we're going to do now is configure it. We go back to the top left in Time Zone, click on this configuration options section, and where it says data entry, we're going to type from [03:05] data entry, we're going to type from 10 am. So we're going to look for 10 am right here, until 11 am. This is New York time. So [03:17] once you click OK, you'll have that time zone set between 10 and 11 am. Going directly to a trading example, what we have to trading example, what we have to do is, on a 5-minute chart, wait for [03:31] do is, on a 5-minute chart, wait for the time zone we've marked to open on the Nasdaq 100. The moment that time zone opens, right at this point here, we have to look for the first forward price (FVG), which is [03:45] exactly what just happened. We mark the FVG, place a limit order at the top of the FVG, and a stop loss at [03:57] the low of the first candle of the FVG, that is, exactly at this point here. We also set a take profit at a 2-second risk/reward ratio. Now, all [04:09] that remains is to wait for the entry point. Here it has been, and for the price to develop to where it needs to go. Trend trading: the market at the end of the day moves through impulses and [04:22] pullbacks. It doesn't matter what trading style you 're using, and it doesn't matter what timeframe you're using. It doesn't matter if you're scalping, day trading, swing trading, or investing long-term; the market always moves the same way. 95 [04:37] % of trading strategies aim to join either an upward or downward trend. Only range-based trading strategies rule out the possibility of an upward or [04:52] downward trend. Some trend-following strategies join the trend; others call it " Smart Money" to sell you a new [05:04] way of trading. It literally doesn't matter; what you're ultimately looking for is to enter an upward or downward trend. Price action plays a crucial role here, as understanding the fundamentals [05:19] of price action for trend trading allows you to operate on the liquidity side. When there's a trend, it's simply because there's liquidity. As I mentioned, from trend trading, we can derive many [05:31] different trading strategies, each and every one of them absolutely profitable as long as they are coherent. Obviously, however, the trading strategy I'm about to present has a low degree of [05:45] difficulty. So it's perfect for beginner traders, but also for advanced traders. The first step for trend trading is to search A support or resistance zone, in this case, a Sorte, as [06:00] you can see on the daily chart. If we zoom out a bit, we can see that there's a fairly clear support level. Here we have a level clear support level. Here we have a level like resistance, support, resistance, support, support, [06:14] support, and since the price is above it, we have a clear support zone. Once we've detected this support zone, what we have to wait for is for an upward reversal to form [06:28] on this daily timeframe. That's precisely what's starting to form at this point. Here we have a clear upward movement. And from there, we're going to go down to the one-hour timeframe. On the [06:43] one-hour chart, we want to look for higher highs and higher lows, meaning that the daily reversal has resulted in higher highs and higher lows on the hourly chart, and that's exactly what we have here. Here we have higher lows, and here we [06:57] also have higher highs. So, having seen this, what we're going to do is use Fibonacci retracements to measure the last impulse. So we measure from the low of the impulse to the high of the impulse to know which [07:14] points are of most interest to us, and what we're going to do at this specific moment is place an order. Limit at the 0.618 level and place a stop loss at the [07:30] regarding the take profit, we will look for a continuation to at least the previous high. From here, we simply continue. If the position had been executed, the price would start well, returning to the [07:45] start well, returning to the entry zone until, without removing us from the stop loss, we return directly to the take profit zone, even a little higher. In this case, as you can see in the upper left, we are [07:59] following the euro/dollar pair and have switched from a daily to an hourly timeframe. But the reality is that this type of strategy can be used with any asset and on any timeframe. Asian Range: [08:14] This trading strategy has become very fashionable recently and is based on understanding the following: the Asian session has the lowest volume of all the sessions, so we can expect [08:28] large consolidations to form in the different currencies and that later, during the London and New York sessions, liquidity will be drawn in to look for a specific move. The difficulty of this [08:42] trading strategy is very high because, again, although there are many Concepts that may seem easy to understand—in fact, we'll see an example now, and everyone will understand it. When you execute them [08:56] repeatedly, you'll realize there are many nuances, many variations, and this can cause uncertainty in correctly understanding what type of pattern we're trading. The Asian Range occurs between 8 PM and 2 [09:13] AM in New York, but to better and automatically control what this Range occupies graphically, we'll go to the top left where it says " indicators" and type "Asian Range." This indicator [09:30] here, the second one, is more than enough. As you can see, it will As you can see, it will clearly show us what these ranges are, and you can quickly see a kind of pattern in which the range [09:46] moves from a higher to a lower point. In this case, it's because the trend is bearish, but the reverse will also happen: moving from a lower to a higher point. But having said that, let's go directly to [10:00] the strategy. By following this Range, which will develop little by little on this 5-minute chart, what we need to [10:12] 5-minute chart, what we need to verify is, first, the formation of that Range, that is, the formation of that movement. A slightly more horizontal movement is about to begin [Music] We already [10:26] [Music] We already have that Asian Range there at the beginning, and once we've verified that Range, what we're going to have to [10:38] look for is a liquidity zone. So before continuing, let's liquidity zone. So before continuing, let's mark that liquidity zone, that point outside the Liquidity Range that interests us, to see if somehow, [10:53] after this Asian Range and once the London session opens, and even later the New York session, the price tries to break out of this Range, being manipulated, attack a liquidity zone, and completely reverse. [11:08] So the strategy is based on leaving a limit order placed at this a limit order placed at this exact point, at this liquidity maximum, a stop loss above the aforementioned maximum, and a take profit that attacks the [11:24] low of this Asian session, which for now is this low we have here, but since we are still in the Asian session, it may be subject to [11:37] change. Let's continue to see what happens. We see that the price seems to rise, it goes down, but in general terms, it continues that kind of upward trend. We'll see if it somehow contacts that liquidity zone [11:53] mentioned, it gets close, it doesn't quite touch it, and Right here we have the contact, so we would already be in the position and we would simply have to wait to see if the price reverses, and there we have it. [12:08] It attacks the low of the Asian Range that has formed in this case. It continues that bearish movement quite strongly. There we have it, at the aforementioned low. Moving Average Crossover: The [12:25] moving average crossover is one of the oldest trading strategies that exists and is based on using the most common indicator, the moving average, to that is happening with pure price action and making [12:40] trading decisions based not on one but on two moving averages. The degree of difficulty of this strategy is low since you simply have to add two moving averages to the chart, wait for a very specific pattern to occur, and [12:55] execute the position. Obviously, as in any trading strategy, there are subjective decisions, there are patterns with nuances; that always happens. However, and leaving aside the profitability that can be obtained with this strategy, [13:10] trading with moving average crossovers is one of the easiest and simplest ways to trade. For the moving average crossover... What we obviously need are two moving averages. So we go to indicators and type " [13:23] indicators and type " EMA exponential moving average". We click not EMA exponential moving average". We click not once, but twice, and now we just need to configure these moving averages. So we double-click and [13:36] So we double-click and set a 50-session moving average with a slightly thicker style and in red. We click "OK" and then double-click again and set [13:49] a 200-session moving average, in this case in blue, which is fine. We also click "OK". From here on, every time the 50-session moving average [14:01] crosses the 200-session moving average from above, we will sell. Every time the 50-session moving average crosses the 200-session moving average from below, we will buy. Knowing [14:13] the rules, let's see how this structure develops. At the moment, it seems quite horizontal; the moving averages are converging. But it's still fairly horizontal. Now we take a slight direction, and right [14:27] here, at this precise moment, that moving average crossover has formed. So what we're going to do is execute a market sell position and place a stop loss above [14:42] the moving averages. that have just crossed. And in this case, we're not going to set any kind of Take Profit order since a sell position has formed, that is, a downward crossover of the 50-period moving average with respect to the 200-period [14:57] 50-period moving average with respect to the 200-period respect to the 200-period moving average. Let's see what ends up happening. Often, it [15:13] may seem that the entry at the moving average crossover is much later than it would be following other price action concepts. This is possible, but it also represents a safer and more [15:29] automated entry, since there's no need to add any kind of subjective decision. In this case, we see that this bearish structure is quite stuck. We continue in that [15:41] movement, but there hasn't been an upward crossover of the 50-period moving average with respect to the 200-period moving average, so we remain in the position. It seems that the price wants to take that bearish path more forcefully, even though it's taking some time. [15:55] There we have the big movement; we would stay in, we would stay in, and until the crossover from below forms, the crossover from below forms, we [16:22] exact moment when the 50-period moving average crosses above the 200-period moving average, that we would exit the position, which would have been quite long-lasting but also quite profitable, [16:37] since remember the specific entry point was at this point here, and the final return, beyond having been gaining 5%, would have ended up [16:49] being 3.35%. At this precise moment, we would not only exit our open short position, but since a bottom-to-top crossover has formed, we would enter a [17:03] long position following the same process. Trading with fire value gaps is a variation of trend trading. When you look for a trend to trade, [17:16] you have to add certain elements: Fibonacci retracements, support and resistance levels, moving averages, previous highs or lows, dozens and dozens of elements to add to the trend. [17:30] Perfect. Well, in fire value gap trading, the way you join that trend is by using the fire value gaps themselves. A fire value gap is simply a liquidity void, an incomplete space between three [17:44] candlesticks that is supposed to be filled. It would be like a kind of gap. Ultimately, these are trading strategies with an intermediate level of difficulty, since, regardless of the [17:58] relatively new concepts used, learning and applying them doesn't present any extreme challenge or difficulty. For this fire value gap trading strategy, literally any [18:12] asset and any Timeframe. Although I recommend the current example, which is the daily timeframe within a widely used index like the S&P 500, the [18:25] first thing we need to see is the direction of the trend. Notice how the trend is clearly bearish; we are making lower highs and lower lows, and now we have just broken through this zone of [18:40] previous lows. Therefore, the only thing we would have to do is, first, identify the trend; second, wait for the previous highs or lows to be broken ( in this case, the lows); and third, wait for a [18:53] third, wait for a bearish development and pullback to form down to the previous fire value gap (in this case, this zone here). So, as we can see right now, the situation is that the overall trend is [19:07] bearish since we are making lower highs and lower lows, but also, within the last structure, what do we have? A liquidity-taking formation at this previous high, a clearly bearish impulse that breaks through [19:23] the previous lows. And now what we can expect is that within the impulse, the pullback and continuation will form a small pullback impulse and... [19:36] Continuing to define and highlight the number one foundation of any market, which is fractality, we're going to place a limit order on this fire value gap, a stop loss above the high, and a take profit down to the [19:52] previous lows, which in this case is this level here. But as we know, it's subject to change since we haven't yet seen, or perhaps haven't seen, the final development of this bearish arm. We continue moving forward to see what happens. [20:07] There we have a slightly clearer bearish movement. So that position. So we would simply have to wait for the price to [20:21] would simply have to wait for the price to continue with that bearish structure we were in earlier. There we have a bit of the movement, and we would already have the take profit marked. [20:37] one of the most common ways to trade when we talk about indicators, along with the MACD. Although, in my opinion, the RS is a more complete indicator, not only because it also gives you the same divergences as the MACD, [20:50] even a little more precisely, but because it also marks overbought zones. and oversold zones. Although including a large indicator like the RSI on the chart can somewhat automate your [21:04] trading strategies, especially when making entry and often exit decisions, it is still an indicator, and a somewhat more subjective one at that, even more so than moving averages. This is because in many RSI and [21:18] in many RSI and price action, which means there are more variables that influence the strategy. This makes these RSI divergence trading strategies of [21:34] intermediate difficulty. For this RSI trading strategy, we go to the top left where it says " Indicators" and type the acronym RSI ( Relative Strength Index). We click on it, and once [21:50] Strength Index). We click on it, and once clicked, we return to the RSI and double-click, as we are going to configure it by making the RSI line a little thicker. We will hide this middle line directly, and at the bottom, [22:03] where it shows the different band levels, we will leave the upper band at 30 and the middle band at... We'll hide it directly, and we'll [22:15] leave the lower band at 21. We accept, and now, regardless of the asset and regardless of the timeframe (although I recommend lower timeframes, from one hour down), what we're going to do is [22:30] go long every time the price is oversold between the 20 and 30 bands, and buy when it breaks out of [22:42] those two bands. So, we're moving forward a bit, already seeing that it's a strategy that bit, already seeing that it's a strategy that only works for long positions, and precisely when only works for long positions, and precisely when we see at this point that the price has [22:54] entered or that the RSI has entered the band, at the moment it breaks out of those two bands, we're going to go long, and the exact moment is right here. We execute a market position, we always put a stop loss [23:09] at the 0.34 level. This is why it's a trading strategy that we already tested at the time, and you'll find it in the first pinned comment or description of this video, and we put a take profit up to the risk/ [23:24] reward limit. It can be one or two; initially, I always recommend two. So, let's see how quickly the The [23:36] price touches our Take Profit and even continues initially with considerable strength. Well, I've finished discussing the six best strategies for trading today and making money [23:49] with trading. Before drawing a final conclusion, let's review the difficulty table. First, considering the highest difficulty level, we have the Silver Bullet and the Asian Range. If we [24:03] go down a small category, we have, at an intermediate level of difficulty, trading with fire value gaps and RSI divergences. Finally, the lowest level of difficulty includes trend trading and [24:19] moving average crossovers. I simply want to make a final reflection on trading strategies. Often, this is what we give the most importance to, but I'd like us to ask ourselves: Why do we give it [24:33] so much importance? We give it importance because we consider it important. How can someone starting from scratch know what's important in a profession? They don't know. So we don't give it importance based on what we [24:47] consider important, but because what we've been told is most important is the strategy. Now, why have we been told that the most important thing is the strategy? Who told us that? Obviously, this has been told to us by the [24:59] mentorships, platforms, brokers, exchanges, etc., etc., because it's the most marketable, the easiest to sell. So we come to trading thinking that the best and most important thing is the strategy. [25:15] But it's not the best and most important thing; it's what works best for the people who sell products, for the people who come from scratch. This is how there's turnover within the sector. Someone comes in and buys a [25:28] Silver Bullet strategy, then goes to another person, or buys the same one from someone else, like someone Then they go and say, "No, I don't like that one either. I'm going to buy a mentorship for [25:40] And that's how a cash flow and a turnover are generated, in which people who start trading are constantly changing strategies. Nowadays, all training programs, or 99% of them, [25:55] sell profitable trading strategies. Why? Because technology has advanced a lot, the world has advanced a lot, and just like 10 years ago, go to the Barcelona Stock Exchange. Because there were hardly any training programs, nowadays there are [26:09] thousands and thousands and thousands of them. These programs, just as there are thousands, increasingly use more competent trading strategies. First, because you, the trainer, apply them; second, because you get [26:23] someone else to explain a strategy; third, because you copy it from another training program; or even because you copy it from YouTube—it doesn't matter. The point is that the strategy itself will be profitable. If you're not profitable, it's not the strategy's fault. [26:35] Here we could enter into two types of problems. Problem number one: the learning methodology through which they try to instill the basics of a strategy. What is that methodology like? Does it have a community? Are there live streams? Are there [26:49] calls? Is there access to trainers? Is there follow-up? Are there exams? Do they facilitate interaction? Do they facilitate networking? Is there a specific teaching plan? That's important to keep in mind. The other point is understanding that the [27:04] strategy to strategy and from training program to training program is not positive. All strategies can become profitable, but they require concentration and specialization in the strategy. If you enroll in a [27:21] strategy. If you enroll in a law degree and then, after the medicine and you drop out in your first year, then you enroll in an aviation degree and you drop out in your now you're studying psychology and you won't know anything about law, [27:37] medicine, aviation, or psychology, you won't know anything. Is this a problem with the degrees themselves? It's also your problem that you're not focusing, that you're not giving the strategies you're being taught time to become profitable. Remember that below, [27:52] description of this video, you'll find different links of interest. In this case, instead of completely free courses and training, I'm going to leave you different links for each of [28:05] these trading strategies: Silver Bullet, Moving Average Crossover, RSI, Trend, etc. So feel free to learn whichever one you like best, completely free of charge. I'm going to leave this video here. [28:19] I hope you liked it and that it was helpful, which is the important thing.
