[00:02] trading from scratch today, I would only study these three strategies. There are only three approaches that allow you to understand what is happening in the market. Now we will analyze happening in the market. Now we will analyze each one in the simplest possible language. [00:20] First, breakout of levels, impulse or pull. The second is rebounds from densities. Third: long knives, raising the straits, sharpening. Breakout of levels. One of the simplest strategies. A good breakout level is not just a pretty line on the [00:34] chart. First of all, I look to see if the level has a clear structure and if there is activity in the tool. For me, a good level usually has several signs: several touches in one zone, a narrow range before the level, the [00:50] level is close to a round number, there is [music] activity in the feed before the approach. There is no strong counter- aggression. The glass shows that the movement is not hindered by large limit orders on the opposite side. You can tell from the instrument [01:03] that someone is leading it or that there is interest in it . The pre-level squeeze cannot always be clearly identified. In scalping, everything often looks noisy just before the breakout. The price rises, falls, rises again, and [01:16] false movements appear. Therefore, it is more important not just to see the compression, but to monitor the tool in advance and how it approaches the level. Often, moments of activity can be determined precisely by the glass and tape. If [01:30] market aggression appears before the level, small densities begin to be taken apart, and there is no strong counter seller or buyer, then we can say that the level is becoming interesting. But it is important to understand that before the breakout itself, the [01:43] ideal [music] picture rarely forms. Good breakouts often need to be monitored in advance rather than trying to spot them at the moment. A [01:55] may look good on the chart, but in fact there is no normal participant and normal volume behind it. The main signs of a bad level: chaotic spikes, too much movement, illiquid instrument, no activity in the [02:10] order book, no retail interest, no clear buyer or seller. [music] The level is on the chart, but there is no one to arrange a breakout. Particularly dangerous illiquid instruments. On them, the formation may look beautiful, but [02:23] if there is no volume, no participants and no retail traders, then the instruments can easily be manipulated [music] in different directions. In such a situation, the breakdown may [music] into a chaotic stalemate. Therefore, you cannot [02:36] trade only the picture. The level must be confirmed by activity, glass, tape and the nature of the instrument. [02:48] level itself, but from the activity before it. If market aggression appears before the level and small densities begin to be taken apart, I can enter a position with part of the volume in advance. The second part can be added for confirmation, [03:02] when the price goes into positive territory a little and it becomes clear that the movement is really starting to [music] develop. Sometimes the entry can be partly before the density analysis, partly at the moment of density erosion at the level, [03:16] before a round number, an additional one, when the price has already slightly gone into plus and the breakout is confirmed. The main idea is not to enter simply because the price has approached the level. It is necessary to see that activity appears before the level , there is pressure towards the [03:30] breakout and there is no strong counter participant. an auto strategy. After entry, a stop is automatically set at -1%. This is an average [03:44] classic stop for a non- super-volatile instrument. It is needed so as not to wait out the situation. If the breakout turned out to be false or the price suddenly returned back to the range. When the position gives plus 1% from the entry, the stop [03:58] is moved to breakeven. This is important because a breakout can quickly provide momentum, but also quickly return. If the movement has already produced a reaction, but does not develop further, the deal should not turn into a big loss. [04:17] obvious breakout point. This is the moment when the instrument begins to accelerate downwards even before a full breakout of the level. It looks like this . The first major sales appear before the level , and there are not many of them yet, but they are already starting to suppress the [04:32] instrument. The price becomes heavier, the buyer stops holding the level normally, and there is a feeling that the instrument is ready to fall lower. After this, the first participant who sees a weakness can join in. The [04:45] second and third ones are connected after it, and cascading acceleration based on requests begins. At the moment of the level breakout, pending orders for the breakout and stops of those who were [04:59] in the long position are additionally triggered. This enhances the downward movement and gives [music] momentum. Therefore, the short level is often easier to work out than the long level. It allows you to see in advance a small window of a couple of seconds when large sales have already begun, but the [05:13] movement has not yet fully unfolded. If you manage to get in at this moment, it could be a good confirmation that the [music] level will really break through. But it is important not to confuse the breakaway point with ordinary noise. If [05:26] movement has appeared, but the price does not accelerate, and the buyer continues to hold the level, then the breakout may not occur. The real breakdown point is when selling begins to put pressure on the price, the order book becomes weaker, there is [05:40] not enough counter buyback, and the instrument begins to quickly fall to or through the level . Density rebound strategy. A density bounce is a trade where I [05:52] try to take the price reaction from a large limit order or from a density cascade in the order book. The essence of this strategy is that large density is seen by more than just one trader. It is visible to algorithms, traders, screeners, [06:07] participants in the order book, and those who trade from limit zones. Therefore, when first approaching such a density, limit orders for a set of positions often appear in advance. Because of this, the price may not reach the density itself perfectly or may give a [06:21] quick reaction from it. If there is one large density in a [music] instrument , there may be a local rebound from it . This is especially true if the instrument is not too volatile and does not have a large number of retail participants who [06:35] can quickly dismantle this density. For example, the glass shows a density of 5 million. Everyone can see this order. Some participants set limits beforehand to gain momentum. In such a situation, you can try to catch a [06:50] local reversal or at least the first reaction from density. But it is important to understand that density alone does not guarantee a reversal. For the limit density to be fulfilled, market orders are required from the opposite side. If a coin is not very liquid, [07:06] normal retail activity may not be enough to drive the price to density and build a healthy position. Therefore, the entrance is often made in parts. It is not necessary to wait for the perfect touch of the density itself, because the price may not [07:20] reach it. You can scatter the limits before the density, so that at least part of the before the density, so that at least part of the [music] position is collected before the turn. The [07:33] relative to the tool. [music] The same order can be large for an illiquid coin and ordinary for an instrument with a high turnover. If the instrument is illiquid or average, say, with a turnover of up to 200-300 million [07:48] dollars, then a density of 1 million dollars can already be considered quite large. If the instrument is more liquid with a turnover of $500 million to $1 billion or turnover of $500 million to $1 billion or more, then a density of $2-$3 million [08:03] can already be considered quite large. That is, it is important to look not only at the absolute size of the order, but also at how much it stands out in relation to the turnover, the order book, and the normal behavior of the instrument. [08:22] Typically the working range for a set before density is from the density itself to 1%. This is the average range in which you can place limit orders to gain leverage before a possible rebound. But the price does not always perfectly match the [08:35] density. If there are already a lot of orders before the density and there is a risk that my position will not be fully realized, I can use a wider range. This is especially true if the density is visible to many participants and there is [08:50] a possibility that the rebound will begin before the touchdown itself. density of the glass. If it is one density that has appeared not [09:04] long ago and there is not a lot of confidence in it, it is better to close the first reaction faster. is better to close the first reaction faster. In such a situation, a normal target is 1-3% of the movement. You shouldn't try to drag out such a deal for too long, because [09:18] the density can be removed, rearranged, or quickly dismantled. If there is a large collapse of densities, the formation looks stronger. In this case, you can try to stronger. In this case, you can try to pull the movement further, from 5 to 10%. [09:32] But even in such situations, it is important to fix part of the position, because the cascade of densities can also begin to disassemble or be removed. [09:47] density. If the density is less than an hour, the probability that this an hour, the probability that this spoofer density is quite high. to consider a rebound from such density, because it can be quickly removed at the moment the [10:01] price approaches. If the density lasts much longer, it can be taken more seriously. The long lifetime of the density shows that the request did not simply appear for a few minutes for manipulation. This may be a real [10:16] interest of the participant. Therefore, before entering, it is important to look not only at the density size, but also at how long it has been sitting in the glass. Fortunately, our terminal has a feature that allows you to view the [10:33] that allows you to view the lifetime of a density using a hotkey. two possible developments. First, the density can be completely eaten away instantly, and [10:47] the price will go further against our position. Second. They can bite off a part of the density , after which a reaction will appear again and the price will reverse. Yes, there are situations when the density is partially dismantled and then a reversal occurs anyway. But [11:03] strategically it’s better not to count on this. If the density has started to corrode, it is better to immediately exit the market. At this point, the likelihood of further parsing becomes too high. If you stay in a position, you can [11:16] end up in a reverse impulse movement after the density is analyzed. You need to monitor whether the density is stable or being removed, whether it is actually starting to be analyzed, whether there is market aggression against the position, whether there is a squeeze towards the density. [11:32] The main danger is not having time to exit at the moment of erosion. Therefore, density transactions require constant monitoring. It is important to understand that we are not just trading an order in the order book, but the price reaction to this order. If there is a reaction, it needs to be [11:48] collected. If the reaction has disappeared and the density is starting to dissipate, you need to exit or be prepared for a sharp acceleration against the position. [music] If the tightness is removed and the idea of ​​the trade breaks down, you cannot stay in the position and hope [12:02] that the tightness will be set again at the same price and that there will be a reaction from it again. This kind of thinking is dangerous. Density was the main reason for entry. If it's no longer there, reason for entry. If it's no longer there, then there's no reason to hold the [12:20] the price moves a large percentage in a very short period of time. The minimum movement can be from 10% to 30% per minute. It all depends on the instrument, its volatility, liquidity and the overall market [12:35] context. If a coin moves this percentage in a minute, it can already be considered an extreme movement. At this point, the market often becomes overbought or oversold. Liquidations appear, the glass may [12:47] become empty, and the movement begins to proceed on emotions and forced closing emotions and forced closing [music] of positions. A has grown very large in a short period of time. Entry in such a situation is usually sought not [13:02] simply because the price has risen sharply, but by signs of a stop in movement. Basic entry points in the long knife. Stopping the tape. The strong growth has already passed, and new purchases are starting to fade. In the glass, the participants begin to set the [13:16] densities. The price fits a large round number. A counter- stops continuing at the same speed. So the idea is not to short any strong rise. It is necessary to wait for the moment when the momentum begins to [13:31] fizzle out and signs appear that there are [13:43] falls down very hard. In such situations, entry is usually sought along with the stop of sales. The main entry options after a strong decline, when the price has already passed a large percentage of the selling stop in the glass, when it is clear that the [13:59] instrument stops falling further after an extremely strong [music] minute candle down, when the decline accelerated for several minutes in a row, and the last candle became the culmination. [music] Sometimes a short knife develops [14:13] like this: first there are strong red minutes, then each subsequent candle becomes larger. The movement accelerates and an extreme large minute appears down. In the barks of this culminating candle, you can try to [14:26] find a reversal point. But it is important to understand that this is a very risky deal. If the selling doesn't stop and the market continues to push lower, the move could continue, especially if Bitcoin and Ethereum also continue to fall. If this is a [14:43] strong knife and you managed to catch the reversal point well, you can take a movement in the opposite direction from 5 to 10%. But such deals should not be overstayed without reason. The knife may give a sharp reaction and then continue the main [14:57] movement again. Therefore, it is important to look at whether a reverse movement is developing or whether it is simply a short technical rebound. If the reaction yielded a good percentage, it is better to fix part of the position and continue to monitor the market. [15:17] you can take the first reaction by 2-3%. This is a faster and safer option. If there is still a clear participant in the instrument , the trend is not broken, the price is bought out and the movement continues to develop, you can try to [15:31] pull the sharpening [music] further. In a knife, we often take a reversal after an extreme impulse, and in a sharpening, we take short-term liquidity withdrawals along the trend and try to enter into a continuation of the main movement.
