3. Hi And Thanks For Checking This Guide! I Promise That What You Are
About To Know, Will Not Only Change How You Understand Trading,
But It Could Change Your Whole Life.
First Of All, Who Iâm I, Why You Should Listen To Every
Word I Say. At Least When It Comes To Trading ď My Name Is M. Adel
Selim. Iâm 40 Years Old, Professional Trader And Trading Systems
Developer For A VERY Long Time. Whatever You Could Possibly
Imagine, About Trading Financial Markets, I Know it Very Well,
Especially Trading Foreign Exchange Market â FOREX â And Stocks.
Not Because Of The Tons Of Books I Read, Or The Courses I Learned
From TOP Professional Traders Around The World In The Past 15 Years.
But Because During That Time, Until Today, I TRADE Almost Every Single
Day.
And This Is The Most Important Thing That I Would Like To Start With:
TAKE ACTION. EVERY DAY
4. Whatever You Want To Achieve, Donât Let A Day Ends Without Taking
AT LEAST One Step Forward. Doesnât Matter If Itâs Huge Step Or Small.
As Long As Itâs A Step Forward, It Will Make A Difference. If You Donât
Follow This One Simple Rule From The Beginning⌠You May Find
Yourself Not Only Stuck And Frozen. You Will Actually Start Moving
Backwards. Sooner Or Later, You Will Start Leaving Your Path, And
Moving In The Wrong Direction. Whatever You Do, Donât Do That.
Thatâs Why Itâs VERY Important To Take At Least ONE Simple Step
Towards Your Goal, Every Day.
You Will Learn A lot, You Will Collect Huge Amount Of Information.
Donât Keep It Inside. Knowledge Is Power. But If You Keep It All Inside
Your Head, And Never Take Action, This Power Will Become Weakness.
It Will Cause Stress And Confusion, And Maybe Worse. Simply Because
While You Know That Youâre Gaining Knowledge, You Can SEE That Your
Life Around You Didnât Change. To Create Balance In your Life, You
Must Take Action. And Knowledge Will Become Experience, Then
Experience Will Create Change.
Imagine Learning All Your Life, Everything There Is To Know About Cars.
From How To Drive, To Different Models, Engines, Fuel..Everything. But
You Still Walk Or Take A Taxi Because You Didnât Take Action, And
Started Owning A Car, Driving It, ⌠Never Allowed Your Knowledge To
Make A Difference In Your Life. Can You Imagine That?.
You Could Know More Than Anyone About Cars, But That Other Guy,
Who Only Knows How To Drive, And Driving Everyday, Is Doing Better
Than You! This Would Eventually Cause Conflict Within You. And You
Will end Up Doing One Of Two Things : Start Taking Action OR
Forgetting About Your Goal, Your Dream, Your Passion.
What Do You Prefer To Do?
5. Remember:
One Simple Step Forward. Thatâs All. One Step, Every Day.
With That Said. Allow Me To Start Talking About What Iâm Going To
Explain In This Guide.
In This Guide, You Will Learn What Trading Is All About. How Markets
REALLY Work. How To Win And Avoid Losses. How To Always Be In
Control Of Your Trading Business. Why Traders â Even Experienced
Traders, Not Only Beginners â Lose More Money Than They Should.
And Many More.
The Reason I Wrote This Guide For You, Is To Make Sure That You
Always Be On The Right Path. Itâs Not Enough To Take Action, You Must
Make Sure That Youâre Taking THE RIGHT Action.
6. WHAT IS TRADING AND WHY WE ARE TRADING ?
Trading Is Simply An Act OF Exchange. We Exchange What We Have,
For Something Else That We Want Or Need, But We Donât Have. Sound
Familiar? Exactly. You, Me And Everyone On This Planet, IS Doing That
Every Day.
The Most Obvious Example, Is Exchanging Money For Things That We
Want. From Food, To Clothes, Products And Services Of All Kinds And
Shapes.
Thatâs What Trading Is. Trading As A Business Or Profession, Is Basically
The Same Thing, The Same Process, With A Small But Important
Difference. While Most People Trade To Get What They WantâŚ.
Professional Traders Trade For PROFIT
7. People Buy And Sell Everyday, All Kinds Of Stuff. Just Because Thatâs
How We Get What We Want. Traders On The Other Hand, Trade To
Make Profit From This Process.
When You Go To A Shop And Buy ..Letâs Say A New Shirt. You Do This
Exchange â Money From You, Shirt From The Seller â Because You Need
Or You Want This Shirt. A Trader Would Do Exactly The Same Thing. He
Or She, Would Buy The Shirt With Money, Because They Want It Or
Need That Shirt. However, Their Goal Is To Keep This Shirt Then Sell It
At A Later Time, With Higher Price, To Make Profit.
Trading Financial Markets Work The Same Way. People Around The
World â For Example â Exchange Currencies Every Day Because They
Need To Do That. For Traveling For Example.
Forex Traders Buy â And Also Sell â Currencies, To Make Profit. They
Buy Currency In Exchange Of Another Currency, Because They Know Or
They Believe That One Currency Will Have More Value ( Or Less Value,
If Theyâre Sellers ) In The Future Than Another.
The Same Thing With Stocks And Any Other Financial Market. So In
Short, âŚ.
Your Job, As Professional Trader, The Goal Of Everything You Do, Is
Simply To Make Profit.
Too Obvious ? ď You Will Be Surprised.
The Reason I Started With This Very Simple Fact. Is That MANY Traders
Forget It. Believe It Or Not. Many Traders Lose Focus. For Example,
Many Traders Trade To Win. Which Is Not The Same As Making Profit.
8. Trading To Win, Means Traders Are Emotionally Attached To Their
Trades. Theyâre Not In Full Control. And This Is Huge Mistake. Itâs Not
That Obvious As Long As Theyâre Winning. But When They Start
LosingâŚThey Will Take Emotional Reaction. They Will Trade Again, As
Fast As Possible, To Get Back To Winning. Which Is Called âRevenge
Tradingâ. And Itâs One Of The Most Common And Most Dangerous
Trading Mistakes.
Thatâs Why Itâs Important For You To Understand, And Always
Remember, That Youâre ONLY Trading To Make Profit. Youâre Not
Trading To Win. IF Losing Trades Will Make You Profit, Then You Should
Lose With The Same Mental And Emotional Passion Of Winning. And
Thatâs How You Should Understand And Accept Losing Trades.
Losing Trades Are Part Of Trading. They Will Always Happen. And You
Should Not Bother Yourself About Them, As Long As Theyâre Within
Your Overall Trading Plan. I Donât Care About Losing Trades AT ALL. And
I Donât Care About My Winning Ratio. All I Care About Is How Much
Profit I Make Within My Trading Plan For The Week, Month Or Year.
I Could End The Month With MORE Losing Trades Than Winners, But At
The Same Time, My Profit Curve Is Going Sky-High! From Beginners
Point Of View, That Should Be A Losing Month. Not Only That,
According To Beginners, First Question They Ask Is Almost Always
About The Winning Rate. Whatâs The Winning Rate Of This System?
Whatâs The Winning Rate Of This Strategy? Etc⌠Wrong Question!
What They Should Be Asking Is Whatâs The Average PROFIT Of This
System Or Strategy. Not The Winning Rate.
For Example, I Could Teach You A Scalping Strategy With More Than
%80 Stable Winning Rate. Sometimes Even More. But If You Use It To
Trade, You Will Never Make Any Profit, Short Term Or Long Term.
Because Those 20% Losing Trades Will Keep Burning All And Any Profits
9. You Make Due To Bad Money Management. At The Same Time, I
Personally Know Professional Traders â Very Well Known Names In The
Industry â Making Profits Almost Each And Every Month, With A 53% To
55% Winning Rate Strategy. Shocked ?! This is 100% True. Their
Winning Rate Never Reached 60% And Sometimes They Even Go Below
50% Win Rate For Months, And Theyâre âPrinting Moneyâ All Year.
Always Remember WHY Youâre Trading. And Never Let Anything
Distract You, Fool You, Or Take Your Eyes Away From Your Goal. To
Make Profit.
10. WHAT EXACTLY ARE WE TRADING?!
When You Open Your Charts And Take A General Overview Of Price
Action, You Will Be Absolutely Convinced That Price Action Is 100%
Random. Like A 2 Years Old Child Drawing On A White Paper! And Iâm
Sure All Traders Remember The First Time They Saw A Chart, And
Thought â How Anyone Could Make Money From THAT?!â. And They
Are Right. Randomness Is Part Of Market Behavior. Completely Natural
And âŚ.Got Nothing To Do With Trading!
Markets Move In Two Ways Or In Other Words, There Are Two Types
Of Price Action: Random Moves And Repeated PATTERNS.
WE ONLY TRADE PRICE ACTION PATTERNS
11. As Far As Technical Analysis Is Concerned, We Only Trade One Type Of
Price Action Or Market Movements : Patterns. And We Completely
Avoid Randomness In The Market.
What Separates Professionals From Beginners Is Not That Professionals
Know This Rule..But The Fact That Professional Traders Can Recognize
The Difference Between Those Two Types Of Price Action.
Everything You Know, Read Or Heard About Technical Analysis, Is
Nothing But Trading Price Action Patterns.
Trends Are Patterns. Support And Resistance, Are Patterns. Supply And
Demand Zones, Are Patterns. Candle Sticks Formations, Are Patterns.
Everything We Do Based On Technical Analysis, Is Actually Trading Price
Action Patterns. How About Technical Indicators? Even Technical
Analysis Indicators Are Following Price Action Patterns. But Unlike
Human Mind, They Canât Tell The Difference Between The Two Types
Of Market Movement. Thatâs Why They Produce What We Call âFalse
Signalsâ.
Moving Averages, RSI, MACD, Stochastic, And Even Fibonacci
ToolâŚThey All Follow Price Patterns. How An Indicator, Which Was
Designed Based On Mathematical Calculations, Follow Price Action
Patterns?! Itâs Tricky But Allow Me To Explain.
Indicators Like Moving Averages And RSI, Follow Specific Mathematical
Formulas To Produce Their Signals. Those Mathematical Formulas Are
Designed Based On Observations Of Price Action Patterns And They,
Mathematically, Reflect Price Action Patterns.
When The Market Begins To Move Randomly, Those Formulas Become
Useless And Start To Produce Wrong Readings Or False Signals. Because
They Were Not Designed To Measure Or Reflect Randomness.
12. Not Only That, But Because Those Indicators â According To Their
Mathematical Formulas â Reflect Market Movement. We Started To
Notice That The Indicators Themselves Are Producing Repeated
Patterns That We Can Use To Trade. For Example, RSI or Stochastic
Divergence.
When Weâre Using Technical Analysis, Including Technical Analysis
Indicators, We Are Following Price Action Patterns. And Thatâs When
We Start Checking Strategies And Systems For Valid Trading Setups And
Profitable Signals.
When The Market Starts To Act Randomly⌠Thatâs When We, As
Professional Traders, Simply Stop Trading, Take A Step Back, Relax, And
Wait For The Market To End This Random Move.
And This Is How You Know If You Have A Good Trading Strategy, Or
Trading System, Or Not. If The Strategy Just Keep Generating Signals
Whatever The Market IS Doing, Then Itâs Going To Eventually Make You
Lose Money. If The Strategy Or System, Can Help You CLEARLY
Understand When The Market Is Moving Randomly, Or Started To Form
A Pattern, Then This Strategy Or System Can Be Used To Trade The
Market. Profitable Or Not, Thatâs A Different Story. But Without The
Ability To Recognize The Two Different Types Of Price Action, The
Strategy OR System Shouldnât Be Taken Seriously.
Thatâs Why I Laugh When I Hear Someone Asking, How Many Signals
Does This System Or Strategy Generates Per Day?.. Because I Used To
Think The Same WRONG Way. I Laugh On How I Used To Think And
How Others Keep Repeating The Same âPatternâ Again And Again. And
Thatâs Why I Decided To Write This Guide!..Now Did You See IT Yet? Did
You Notice The Secret Behind Those Repeated Patterns In The Market?
Read This Paragraph Again Then Continue Reading.
13. The Secret Behind Those Patterns In The Market, Is The Same Secret
Behind All Types Of Patterns In What We Do. Subconscious Human
Behavior. This Is Simply How We Are Programmed Mentally And
Emotionally. We Follow Repeated Mental Logic, And Repeated
Emotional Action-ReAction.
MOST People, Subconsciously, Repeat The Same Actions, If And When,
They Experience The Same Circumstances.
Itâs Human Nature. What You Are Watching On Your Chart, Are PEOPLE.
Buyers And Sellers Taking Action. Buying And Selling, All The Time. And
When They Experience Specific Circumstances Over And Over, Most Of
Them, Subconsciously, Take The Same Action. And That Creates Those
Repeated Price Actions Patterns That You See On Your Charts.
Our Job As Traders, Is To Study Those Patterns, Wait For Them, And Use
Them To Trade And Make Profit. Simple As That.
14. How Many Patterns Should We Trade? It Depends On Your Trading
Style, But In General, ONE Type Of Patterns Is More Than Enough.
For Example, If You Prefer To Follow The Trend. Then You Should Focus
On Trend Continuation Patterns. If You Had More Success With Trend
Reversals, Then You Should Trade Trend Reversal Patterns. On Other
Hand, There Is Nothing Wrong In Learning As Many Patterns As You
Can. And Prepare A Strategy For Every Market Condition. This Is More
Advanced Way To Trade, And Itâs Very Effective.
15. Trading Harmonic Patterns
The Formula Of Making Profit From Trading Any And All Financial
Markets Is Very Simple : EDGE + Money/Risk Management.
Imagine If You Found A Way To Win ONLY 51% Of The Time In Any
Casino Game. How Would You Take Advantage Of That, To Guarantee
That You Will End Up With Profit?
In Trading, What You Need Is A Strategy Or System, That Provides An
Edge Over The Market. The System Or Strategy Will Help You To See
The Difference Between Random Price Action, And Patterns. Once A
Pattern Is Detected, The Strategy Should Provide Specific Rules To
Trades This Pattern.
Harmonic price action patterns take the concept of trading price
patterns to the next level by using Fibonacci levels to identify reversal
points in the market.
The First Pattern, Gartley Pattern, Was First Outlined By H.M Gartley In
His Book âProfits In The Stock Marketâ, Published In 1935! H.M Garltley
Only Mentioned The General Idea Behind The Pattern Without Using
Any Fibonnaci Levels To Identify It. It Wasnât Until Scott Carnyâs Book
âThe Harmonic Traderâ Was Released In 2000, We Learned How To Use
Specific Fibonacci Levels To Identify The Pattern.
Scott Carny Also Discovered The Rest Of The Classic Harmonic Patterns,
And Explained How We Can Use Fibonacci Retracements To Identify
Those Patterns.
Unlike many other traditional trading strategies, Harmonic Trading
Works By Predicting Future Movements. Harmonic Patterns Can Be
Found In Any, And ALL Financial Markets.
16. Currently there are many popular harmonic chart patterns. Here is a
list of the classic ones:
- Gartley Pattern
- Bat Pattern
- Crab Pattern
- Butterfly Pattern
- ABCD Pattern
- Three Drives Pattern
Why We Trade Harmonic Patterns?
Harmonics Are Incredibly Accurate Patterns!
17. First, The Accuracy Of Harmonic Patterns, Or The Winning Rate, Ranges
From 65% To 80% Without Using Any Additional Tools Or Trading Rules.
That Means By Only Trading Those Patterns, We Have A VERY Effective
Edge Over The Markets.
Harmonic Trading Is 100% Mechanical
Second, Trading Harmonic Patterns Is Almost 100% Mechanical. No
Guess Work. There Are Specific Steps And Rules For Identifying And
Trading Harmonic Patterns That We Should Automatically Follow. That
Takes ALL Mental And Emotional Stress Out Of Our Trading Activity.
There Are ONLY 3 Steps, That We Use To Trade Harmonic Patterns:
1 â Locate The Potential Harmonic Pattern.
2 â Identify The Pattern By Using Fibonacci Tool.
3 â Trade The Pattern By Using Specific Rules For Entry, Targets And
Stop Loss.
We Use ONE Tool, And We Can Trade Any Market
Another Important Reason, We Mainly Use ONE Tool To Identify
Harmonic Patters In CLEAR And EASY Steps That Anyone Can Learn In
Few Minutes! We Donât Have To Fill The Charts With Indicators And
Look For Clues And Signals From Tons Of Trading Tools. We Are Not
Attached To Any Specific Chart Software Or Trading Platform. Fibonacci
Retracement Tool, Can Be Found In Almost ALL Trading Platforms.
18. Because Harmonics Are Pure Price Action Patterns, We Can Use Them
To Trade ANY Market. Many Strategies And Indicators Are Designed To
Trade Specific Markets, Specific Time Frames etc. With Harmonic
Patterns, There Are No Limitations. We Can Trade Any Market, Any
Time Frame, And We Can Use Any Trading Platform!
Thatâs All Great And Wonderful. But For Me, The Best Part About
Trading Harmonics Is That They Can Be Used As A Complete Trading
Strategy, OR As Part Of Any Strategy And They Work With Any Trading
Style.
Imagine The Accuracy Of Harmonic Patterns If They Were Part Of
Another Highly Accurate Strategy And With That, You Would Have A
KILLER Trading System. The Perfect Example For That Is The Trading
Mastery System That We Designed Especially For Trading Harmonics,
You Can Check It Out By Clicking Here.
Harmonic Patterns Can Also Be Effectively And Profitably Used With
Any Trading Style. They Can Be Used As Trend Continuation Patterns, If
You Prefer Trend Following Strategies. They Can Be Used For Trend
Reversal, If You Trade Trend Reversal Points. And They Are Also
Effective And Profitable In Trading Ranging â SideWays â Markets.
This Is As close To The Holy-Grail As You Can Get. No Other Price Action
Patterns Can Provide ALL Those Advantages For Traders.
Now You Have An Edge That Will Help You To Trade The Market. You
MUST Have Effective Money/Risk Management Plan.
Simple Example Of An Effective Money/Risk Management Plan Is: First,
You Need To Always Have At LEAST 1:1 Risk To Reward Ratio In Every
Trade. That Means, Your Target For Each Trade Should Equal In Value,
Your Stop Loss. For Example â And Donât Forget To Add The Spread â If
Your Stop Loss Levels Is 100 Pips Away From Your Entry Level, Then
19. Your Profit Target Should Be AT LEAST 100 Pips Away From Your Entry
Level.
The Second Part Of This Simple Example Of Money/Risk Management
Plan Is To NEVER Risk More Than 2 To 5 % Of Your Trading Capital, At
Any Time. Doesnât Matter If Youâre Opening One Trade Or 100 Trades.
Your TOTAL Risk Should Not Be More Than 2 to 5% Of Your Capital.
Most Beginners, During Their Practice, Focus Only On Trading Demo
Accounts. And Once They See Profits, They Open Real Money Account
And Start Trading With Their Main Investing Capital. Huge Mistake!
Demo Accounts Are Very Helpful In Testing Your Strategy Or Trading
System. Theyâre Also Helpful In Testing Your Money Management Plan
In Real Life Trading Environment. But Demo Accounts Canât Provide You
With The Experience Of Trading With REAL MONEY. And This Is KEY To
Successful Trading. The Psychological And Emotional Factor Is
Completely Missing When Youâre Trading With Fake-Money.
Thatâs Why Itâs Very Important That â Once Youâre Done Testing Your
Strategy And Money Management On Demo â To Start Testing
YOURSELF By Trading Small Real Money Accounts. Before You Trade
Using Your Main Trading Capital.
