"Real strategy inside, but buried under self-promotion and promises that overstate its reliability; not the guaranteed doubling the title implies."

AI Summary

The video presents a free algorithm for accelerating a trading deposit, promising to double or triple an account within 18 days. It outlines a three-stage risk model, teaches how to identify high-probability reversal zones using ATR and volume, and stresses strict money-management rules such as risking no more than 0.5% per trade.

[00:17]
The 18-day promise

Claims the free algorithm can double or triple a deposit in about 18 days while keeping moderate risks, citing a personal balance test that grew from 123,125 to 256,514 rubles.

[02:13]
The 100% recovery trap

If you lose half your account, you need a 100% return just to break even, which is why chasing losses destroys traders.

[03:38]
Deposit acceleration is a distance

18 days is the minimum period to collect statistics; trading pace and risk should vary over the run, not stay equally aggressive.

[04:04]
Stage one: build a buffer

Start with the lowest risk to create a small cushion that absorbs losses in later stages and prevents an early account wipeout.

[06:02]
The weekly volume formula

If the week is profitable, double your trading volume; if it's a losing week, halve the volume. Progress to a new stage only after a profitable stage.

[08:46]
Measure ATR or average daily waves

Use the instrument's typical daily movement — e.g., dollar-ruble futures — to know when moves are near exhaustion.

[10:09]
The 800-1000 point reversal zone

When a move reaches ~800 points it is close to a reversal; a sharp move over 1,000 points often leads to sideways movement.

[15:44]
Compression-decompression reversal pattern

Look for smaller candles and large tails (compression), then an impulse in the opposite direction (decompression), confirmed by expanding volume.

[18:29]
Risk per trade and take profit

Risk no more than 0.5% per trade and set take profit at twice the stop distance; on prop accounts, split daily risk by six.

[22:18]
Mistakes: patterns first, wrong timing

Candles are only the final trigger; context, timing, and volume come first. Enter only after fading or sharp acceleration.

The core value is not a magic system but a disciplined risk framework: build a buffer, scale only after profits, and use ATR/volume-based reversal patterns to time entries. The promised 18-day doubling is possible in theory, but survival depends on strict money management.

Tutorial Checklist

1 08:46 Determine the instrument's ATR or average daily wave range from the daily timeframe.
2 11:18 Set price alerts at the top and bottom of the known range in your terminal (e.g., TradingView Pro or broker terminal) so you know when the market enters the reversal zone.
3 12:56 Wait for either a sharp acceleration or a gradual fading of the move near the zone.
4 15:44 Confirm the reversal setup: compression (small candles/large tails) followed by an impulse in the opposite direction, with increased volume.
5 22:03 Enter in the direction of the reversal with a stop behind the pattern and take profit set at twice the stop distance.
6 18:16 After each week, double your trading volume if you made money, halve it if you lost; never risk more than 0.5% of the account per trade.

[00:02] day, because today I am giving you an algorithm for accelerating your deposit. I tested it for more than one month or even two. You get it for free. This algorithm will allow you to earn huge profits in 18 days . We are talking about

[00:17] doubling and even tripling, while maintaining moderate risks. What you see here is a balance chart where I used this trading strategy for 18 days, well, a little over 19. I started with 123,125

[00:33] 123,125 rubles and ended with 256,514 daily change. Here you can see how the balance changed, so to

[00:46] speak, daily. But first things first . Be sure to watch this video to the end, because at the end I will tell you the most important mistake that will prevent you from qualifying for props. And even if you do pass these very same

[01:01] selections for samples, you won’t stay there for long and you’ll be driven out of there in disgrace, with rags on your hands. 90% of those who take the deposit increase are wiped out within the first week. They take the tools of the trade and literally lose

[01:16] money right away. Why does this happen? So you have some amount of money. It doesn't matter where you got this amount from. Perhaps he gave it to you as a challenge. This may be your balance amount. For example, the amount is 100,000 rubles. How does the brain of an

[01:32] unprepared person think? He thinks: “I’m now going to accelerate the deposit, and accordingly, my income graph will grow like this.” Unfortunately, the market doesn't work that way; it's not designed that way. And therefore, for the first few days, sometimes

[01:46] even weeks, your account may either not grow or go into the red. And here there is a huge trap. If you start losing the prop's money, you lose that account and are kicked out in disgrace. And if you use

[02:01] your own money, then after some time your account will no longer have time your account will no longer have 100,000 rubles, but, for example, 90,000 rubles. And here we get into a trap. Let's assume you lost half the

[02:13] account. For example, you have 50,000 rubles on your balance . Now, to compensate and at least break even, that is, to get your money back, you need to earn another 50 rubles. And to your balance, this is a 100% return. So, in the end, you

[02:29] earn a 100% return somewhere around here. You have to grow again, you have to earn money again, and you have these swings. If you have ever experienced a situation where you, for example, earn a certain amount of money and then

[02:42] lose it, you understand perfectly well what I am talking about now. I would love for you to comment below, like this video, and let other people know they are not alone. And you are not alone,

[02:55] because at this point people usually fall into total depression, and they leave the market, realizing that it’s all a scam, it doesn’t work, and so on. I'm more than sure that if you've encountered this, you've already had a crisis of

[03:09] faith. So I'm looking forward to your comments on this video so that people know they're not alone. The reason for this kind of thinking and behavior in a person is that he thinks that accelerating a deposit is aggression, that is, it is aggressive

[03:22] trading. Yes, it is aggressive trading, but not as much as many people think. Acceleration of the deposit is a distance. At the same time, over this very distance, the pace of our trading and risks will be different. Accordingly, once. Why do we take 18 days? Well, 18

[03:38] days, of course, is a conditional figure. It could be 20 days or 30 days, but 18 days is the minimum period for which certain statistics are collected. Let's imagine that we have a certain distance for our trading.

[03:51] This trading distance can be conditionally divided into three such large periods. First stage, second stage and third stage. The goal of the first stage is to create a small buffer in your trading account. A buffer is a small amount of funds

[04:04] that will allow you to lose a little during the subsequent stages. Why is this done? If you start losing money immediately without this buffer and immediately begin with high risks, most likely, your prop account will be confiscated,

[04:17] or you will lose your capital. So you have to have some kind of buffer that you can take risks on. That is, our task is to come to the market and not give money to the market, but take money from it. We came here to make money. This is not a

[04:30] casino where we throw money in and lose it. For this reason, we earn a little money at first, so that later, if something goes wrong, we can simply lose this money and then figure out our trading strategy

[04:43] or try again. I will write that at the first stage our risk will be one conventional unit. At the second stage, when we already have a buffer, we can begin normal acceleration, that is, increasing the risks. Therefore, in the

[04:56] second stage, we increase the risks, and the risks, therefore, our trading volumes will grow and, consequently, there will be

[05:08] these swings. In the third stage, we increase the risk again. Now it is already three times larger than the original. And here we begin to grow progressively. An important nuance. You can only move on to the next stage if

[05:23] you have earned money after completing the previous stage . If you made, for example, a plus here, you moved on to the next stage, increasing the risk. Here's the plus: we moved on to the next stage, increasing the risk again. This way you will

[05:35] be able to progress further. It is clear that there may be a fourth stage, and a fifth stage, and so on, but make sure that you have enough liquidity for the instrument you will be trading . Now let's look at a

[05:48] hypothetical situation. For example, the first stage went quite well for you , but in the second stage, for example, you did not earn money, but lost money. What should be done in this regard? In this case, we lower the risk to the previous level.

[06:02] That is, we are again trying to create a certain buffer, that is, we are reducing risks. Thus, the formula is as follows . If we make money during the week, we double our trading volumes.

[06:15] If we lose money during the week, we reduce trading volumes by half. And , of course, another important point is the fact that since this is a deposit increase, we must keep in mind that we can lose some of our money

[06:30] in this case, because, no matter how you look at it , this is risky trading. No matter what anyone tells you, no matter what Dubai infidel tells you about a funny story about how he was a poor trader and

[06:44] came to the market and made millions, remember what it is. We deal with a chance, a high chance, that we will make money, but we will not sell our last cow and kidney, since there are still risks here. Now

[06:58] let's see how it was for me. Let's go back to my yield chart and its daily change. Notice how our profit is growing very smoothly, that is, the chicken is pecking away at it little by little. At the same time, there was

[07:11] strict loss-fixing and no serious drawdowns were allowed. Here we have the beginning of the second stage. And the second stage already begins with doubled risks, with doubled trading volume. And literally on the very first day I suffer a big

[07:25] loss. Every other day I compensate, that is, I recoup this loss, and in the remaining days I am sitting, roughly speaking, at zero. This was the trading situation. There was no trading opportunity to make money back then. But since I still came out on top in the

[07:40] second stage, here we have the third stage. And notice how the balance curve began to rise. Now, every trading day I earned more than the previous one, which allowed me to double my profits over this period of time.

[07:53] Now I will tell you an algorithm that will work for you. Your task will be, firstly, to adhere to this algorithm, and secondly, to maintain the trading volume. The algorithm is actually very simple. Students of my

[08:06] trading school, which is accessible via this QR code, please scan it and check it out; they know this trading strategy like a chap. That is, it is very simple, elementary. We give it to students and it works great, both

[08:19] on large accounts and on small accounts, high risk and low risk. But in this case, since we are increasing the deposit, it is clear that the risks here increase. We give students a slightly

[08:32] different proportion for capitalization. This strategy has several trading methods. I used it for intraday trading, but it can also be used in the medium term. The first thing that is necessary is to determine the ATR of the movements. ATR

[08:46] movements are medium waves. That is, we have some waves in the market. So , the trick is that they move in approximately the same way. For example, this bullish wave will be $100, uh, the bullish wave will be $98, this is, for example,

[09:00] $101. I'm showing this with scissors, it's better to show it with a live example. Any financial instrument can be used for this trading . I used it on the dollar-ruble futures. You can use it on any other

[09:14] futures, from cryptocurrency-related futures to currency futures on our Moscow exchange. You need to see how much the instrument moves on average, what waves it has during the

[09:27] trading day. There is a so-called day move. See what I mean . For example, our market is moving down. He went through about 1,000 points with us. After that, he began to turn around. Here the market passed

[09:41] us by about 800 points and began to turn around. Here the market moved about 800 points and also began to reverse. Let's move on. Here the market passed us by about 800 points and began to turn around. Here the market

[09:55] passed 1,200 points and did not reverse. Here the market passed 1,200 points, and also did not turn around, but went into a saw. The market passed 1,000 points and went into a saw. Here the market passed 800 points and began to

[10:09] turn around. Then the market moved 800 points and started to reverse again. 800 points, reversal again. Here are 700 points, a reversal has occurred. Thus, our formula sounds like this . If the market passes 800,000

[10:25] points, then it is close to a reversal. If the market has moved more than 1,000 points and the movement was very strong and sharp, that is, volatile, most often associated with some kind of news data, the market goes sideways.

[10:40] Can a sideways movement be called a reversal? Well, I personally call it a reversal, but the controversy still rages. So, to avoid getting pecked by the haters, let me just say that he's going sideways, and you can interpret it for yourself. Is

[10:53] this a reversal for you or not? For me, this is a reversal. So when the market is at the point between 800 and 1,000 points, we know that we are here. And this means that

[11:05] the market will soon start moving in the opposite direction. Our task at this moment is to be at the terminal and at this moment to analyze the market. How can you do this if you are a working person? Since I am legally

[11:18] unemployed, well, maybe only an entrepreneur, our school operates perfectly well through me, through my sole proprietorship. But I don't go to recruitment. But when I had difficult times, what did I do? This is how the market trades. I just,

[11:31] knowing this range, you simply set levels with alerts at the top and bottom. This can be done in any trading terminal, depending on the terminal you are trading on. This is done in the trading terminal Trading, for example.

[11:45] However, this can only be done in the Pro version. To do this, you need to click on the level. After that, click on the alarm clock here. And here you will see the Add Alert column. Here you set the conditions. And when this happens, when

[11:59] this very condition occurs, you will receive a trading terminal notification. If you have a trading terminal configured on your smartphone, you will receive push notifications in the trading terminal from Finam Trade, a licensed

[12:14] of Russia. By the way, you can scan this QR code and register with it. Referral link. From your positive trading and trading turnover I will earn something, some pennies there. Right-click on the chart

[12:29] to create an alert. And in the same way, on this tool you enter the conditions, that is, if the price crosses or is lower or the price level decreases. And after that, you will also receive a notification on your phone. This is very convenient, because

[12:43] if we are talking about Trading U, since most of you live in Russia, something can still go wrong. Therefore, it is better to use the broker's terminal. I think there is a notification in any terminal. OK. Step

[12:56] two. We need to wait for either a sharp acceleration or a gradual happens. You can already write in the comments what I can do in history. So, our market is moving upwards, accelerating sharply. This is where the magic happens,

[13:11] which we will talk about in the next step. After this, a reversal occurs. There may also be such attenuation. That is, our market is moving downwards, and each subsequent wave becomes, as it were, with a

[13:23] smaller angle of attack. The market is starting to slowly turn around. The same. The market is moving down and is slowly starting to fade. Here the market is moving upwards and accelerating sharply. Here is another example of acceleration. Here is an example of fading. And one more

[13:37] example of fading. Another example of fading. Another example of fading. And again an example of fading. Acceleration. And here is an example of fading. Everything we talked about earlier will not work if you do not know the third step, if you do not

[13:52] know the basis for which all this is happening. This is the reversal pattern we are looking at. Even though I call it a pattern, it is not really a pattern, it is still a market mechanics. Therefore, please be sure to watch

[14:04] the lecture related to market mechanics. Ideally, of course, I would have a free course dedicated to starting trading without being scammed. Scan this QR code. The course is absolutely free, it’s not an indoctrination warm-up, it

[14:17] just has a basic foundation. That is, what candles are, how to register an account, market mechanics, order matching, everything is there. In general, people usually charge money for the kind of knowledge . I told you for free, so scan it, everything is free. So

[14:32] , our task is to see at the moment of this turning point that the moment of this turning point that one side has weakened and another side has entered the market. In other words, we had, for example, a lot of demand, the market was growing,

[14:47] and then for some reason the demand in the market ended, and now there is a lot of supply in the market , which means the market will again move in the opposite direction. That is, demand must change to supply. Or, on the contrary, supply may

[15:01] change to demand. That is why it is so important for us that the market either fades away before this, that is, in the case of, for example, an upward movement. What does fading mean? That our demand is becoming less and less and less.

[15:14] Market participants are not prepared to pay high prices, they are buying less often, demand is decreasing, and it is beginning to decline. Or sudden acceleration. What does acceleration mean to us? All the demand that was spread out over time

[15:29] could have been spread out over time; it simply comes to the market in a concentrated manner in connection with certain events. There is a lot of demand, the market is becoming overheated, it has grown a lot. Therefore, we expect a subsequent reversal. The market must

[15:44] move up. After this, the range is compressed, meaning the candles become smaller. A large tail may appear. This is the first stage. The first stage of this pattern. The second stage is an impulse fall, or growth,

[15:58] if the example is mirrored. This is also called compression and decompression or narrowing and expansion. That is, one side of us is compressed, compressed, compressed, and then there is a collapse in the other direction. I'll show you the history, then we'll

[16:11] trade it all on the tester. Here we have an example. The market goes down, compression occurs, that is, each subsequent candle becomes smaller than the previous one, and a jerk in the opposite direction occurs. The market then grows, passes through

[16:24] its range again, starts to grow, large tails appear and a reversal occurs in the opposite direction. Exactly the same principle. Here we have a market moving down, a compression stage occurs and then an expansion occurs in the opposite direction.

[16:37] Here our market is moving upwards. The compression stage occurs again, meaning the candles become smaller. The loosening occurs in the opposite direction. Let's look at this example. Compression stage, decompression stage. Another example. Sharp

[16:50] acceleration. candle tails, impulses in the opposite direction, sharp acceleration, compression and decompression stage in the opposite direction. There is also a fourth element. If you were paying attention, you probably noticed that the volume was increased in each of these examples

[17:06] . So, this is the fourth point. Volume. And it has to be big. I'll write it down as enlarged. Why is increased volume so important to us? We must see that capital is entering our market in the opposite direction. After all, it

[17:21] works like an imbalance between supply and demand. If there is a lot of demand in the market, it will grow; if there is a lot of supply, it will fall. But you can understand that there is a lot of demand and a lot of supply by the volume.

[17:36] Therefore, the volume must be increased. There is a nuance, while I was writing it down, I forgot to tell you that ATR can also be understood on a higher time frame. You don't need to count waves to do this. It is enough to open the daily timeframe, since we are

[17:51] trading intraday, and see what the size of the candles is from high to low. This will be our average daily rate. There are even specialized indicators that will allow you to determine this. I do n’t use them, so I don’t

[18:04] recommend them to you, I don’t tell you about them, but you should know that they exist. If you want, you can bother and find them. Well, now the most important thing is, of course, trading volume, because if you don’t control the trading volume,

[18:16] miracles won’t knock. As mentioned earlier, if you make money in a week , you double your trading volume. If you lose, you halve it. In terms of risk per trade, you

[18:29] should not lose more than 0.5% of your trading account in an unsuccessful trade. Moreover, 0.5% is, I am deliberately telling you understated figures. I myself use a larger volume, but, excuse me, I have experience since 2008, so I can

[18:45] afford it. I know what I'm doing. You don't have any experience, so try to take smaller trading volumes so you don't get into trouble later. If you trade on props, then focus on the risks that the props give you, on the

[18:59] daily risk. Moreover, the daily risk in props is usually very high. This is directly, well, given to you so that you, well, don’t cause any mischief. Therefore, you can, for example, divide the daily risk by two and then divide this amount by three more

[19:12] times and risk this money in each transaction . As for take profit, we take take profit twice as much as our stop. Unfortunately, this is how the markets are for now . So far, twice as much. If the markets become more predictable, let's say

[19:28] , then you will be three times bigger. Now let's put it all together, because what I said before is, of course, more and more philosophy. Let's collect all the VDI so you can start trading it and earning money.

[19:41] So, let's open the daily timeframe and start counting daily candles and calculating their range. This can be done using a tape measure. And this can also be done using the True Average Range indicator, also known as the

[19:55] ATR. To do this, simply enter ATR into the indicators , and you will get the average true range. Next, you need to click on settings here below and select the length. Set it to something smaller than 14. Place it around four. Here on the

[20:09] Place it around four. Here on the left we see a column with the number 676. the market is volatile on average, meaning that each candle moves an average of 676 points. Next, we move to a five-minute

[20:23] time frame and measure these 600 points from the start of the trading session. What does this give us? Once we know the value of the indicator, if we are in the indicator, if we are in the range from 80 to 100% of the ATR, we

[20:37] need to look for what I said before, that is, phase two, phase three, phase before, that is, phase two, phase three, phase four, respectively. From 80 to 100%. If it is above 100%, then there is a high probability that the market will

[20:51] most likely go sideways again after shooting at you, and you may get stuck in a sideways movement. And this, of course, is undesirable. 678 80% we have approximately 542. After this, we open the working timeframe. In my

[21:06] we open the working timeframe. In my case, this is a 5-minute timeframe from the start of the trading session. It is located here from the low and from the low to the current mark from the low of the trading session. Let's see how long the market went from low to high. Here it

[21:20] That is, we are precisely in the range where there is a potential trading reversal. Let's check the list further to see if we need to see either acceleration or decay.

[21:34] In this case, we see some kind of combined option, because before there was acceleration, then after that there was such attenuation. After this, we should see a pattern, that is, demand should change to supply and a

[21:48] narrowing of expansion should appear. This pattern does not exist at the moment. And here we have a model. Here is an example of narrowing followed by expansion. The presence of volume is important. We see a downward movement in volumes. That is, the market

[22:03] begins to be actively driven down by sellers. Our task at this moment is to be at the terminal. We make a short position with a stop for this model, with a small reserve and a take profit twice as large. The market reached our

[22:18] take profit. I hope you wrote down this algorithm and at least tested it to understand how effective it is in your specific market conditions. But it often happens that you listened to some trading strategy, whether from

[22:32] me or from someone else, kept it in front of your eyes, repeated it, so to speak, out loud, but still got stop-prikes. And the reason for this lies in several mistakes. The first mistake all beginning traders make is

[22:46] focusing on patterns and regularities. That is, you start looking at exactly what the candles look like and so on. Note that we talked about candles here last of all . This is not just because it is

[22:58] important to have context and timing when you enter a trade. Candles are of secondary importance. Spark plugs are like a trigger, yes, a trigger, but there must be proper preparation, the correct

[23:11] timing, the correct volumes, that is, serious work must have been done beforehand. And the candles are the very last one. The second mistake is the wrong timing. We always enter either after fading or after a sharp acceleration.

[23:25] Otherwise, if you don’t focus on this, you will constantly enter, for example, somewhere around here into a sale transaction, the market will move a little, knock you out and then continue again. It is important for us to see the exhaustion phase of the other side.

[23:40] That is, if you go short, for example , you need to wait until the market shows exhaustion of demand. And the third mistake that everyone makes is not being subscribed to my channel. If you don't subscribe to my channel, then,

[23:54] of course, you won't earn money, that's 100%. I've been running my channel since 2015, which means it's been 11 years. Over these 11 years, I have tested a huge number of

[24:06] trading strategies. I use some of it there, my students use some of it, there, my students use some of it, my friends use some of it. If you want to learn how to make money through legal trading on legitimate
