What’s going on, guys? So, I’m going to go over basically how I play breaker blocks, order blocks, and what I use to increase the probability of things working in my favor. Now, I know there’s I’ve seen a whole bunch of different ways people have done it. This is the easiest way how I play it. Um, it just works for my style of trading. Um, you know, I’m going to go over how I played it on Friday, which is yesterday. Uh, it

It it was very clean. Uh, I’m going to go over all the stages. Before I get over that, if you have any questions, we stream live 10:30 to noon, 2:00 to 4:30. Come on the live stream and ask. I could show you everything I’m going over. You could see it in live. Uh, ask any questions you have. Also, there’s a link to a free Discord in this video. If you want, click in there, go ask, and I could help you out

As well. Other than that, let’s just jump right into it. Um, this is Friday’s setup. I was definitely my bias was bullish because obviously we had um earnings the night before. They were down a little bit, but I was watching the stocks as they were rebounding. Uh, I was definitely bullish. I’m going to play this out right here. Let me speed this up to uh 3x. So, I am sitting here waiting for something special to happen. I’m actually waiting for a

Breakout to be honest with you. And we were talking about this on the stream. Sure enough, see like I wouldn’t even played that as a order block or breaker block. I’m the whole time I’m looking right here. This is what I’m looking at. Um, this to me was the breakout. A couple different reasons. I like to use multiple, you know, uh, multiple indicators. You know, I always feel like one indicator is not going to be it. Uh I like to have,

You know, more than one telling me it’s going to go one way or another. Right now, this is the order block. I’m waiting for this to basically break, retest, and then go. Once it breaks, it’ll be a breaker. Come back, retest, and then we’re going to go. Also, I I just added the uh 60minute imbalance. We’re trading above that, which I definitely like. Also, it’s bullish to me, especially when you break and you can retest. I am definitely looking to break

Right here. Sure enough. Once we break out, I’m now looking for the retest back in. You have, I know it’s not large, but you also have an hourly fair g value gap. You have a 15-minute fair value gap. So now you have overlaying things. You have this breaker. You have a 15-minute fair value gap, hourly fair value gap. Even though it’s not very large, it’s just layers on top of what I’m looking at saying, hey, this is probably going to hold.

So we’re above the imbalance. We’re about to trade inside the breaker 15 minute and hourly fair value gap and then sure enough it just kind of explodes. Now obviously was I waiting for an explosion candle like that in one candle? No. But I was definitely looking to trade up. It just so happens that when things line up sometimes we pop. Now, the whole time that we trade up here, I’m basically out already. My style of trading is not holding. Basically, I’m

Out at this point. I’m I’m chilling out. I’m looking for us to trade back here. So, the real trade that I’m looking for that’s going to be my money maker is the trade back. And I know I know this has become another order block. I’m not looking for anything but trading right back into this range. That’s pretty much in the back of my head the the trade that I really really want. And I’ll watch all day and then sure enough, you

Know, this becomes, you know, a breaker to the downside. But I’m not even looking to take it. I just want this range again. You know, sure enough, now we’re just bouncing kind of right off of it. You know, kind of right off of it. I mean, these are all See, I scalp a lot. So, to me, I got two things now. I would have definitely taken this, right? I I think I’ve taken this if I was on the stream. I I

Took it. If not, I was probably scalping close. You got a couple things that are lining up down here. You got the fair value gaps. You got this breaker, but also you’re kind of got like a whole number here as well. So, what I was doing was grabbing half at like 2011 and then I was looking to get half at like 190. So, I was basically playing half and I was kind of scalping it to the upside. Now, once we come

Up, this is my area of short again. I think we’re going to go short. You got a big old order block. Kind of feels like the market is running out of steam. Also, I mean, we’ve just ran pretty much all day. It’s becoming that 2:00 time. I know two o’clock I know 10 and two a lot of changes happen. I’m looking for a rejection and then we trade back lower I’m my stop out when I’m up here would probably be above

This pivot point and then sure enough we we that’s more than enough for me. I don’t my style of trading if we go from 67 60 points I’m out. I I’m out already. That’s That’s a home run because probably I’m playing uh minis and I’m probably not even holding 60 points. But, you know, if you get 400 or $500 in your prop firm, I play 50Ks. There’s consistency rules. Uh I’m usually out and I’ll go on to the next next account.

But that was uh textbook pretty much. We traded back up into this zone. my stop would have been above the pivot point and then we just kind of dumped and then you know if you want to continue trading I would have definitely been looking to see if we can return back to this zone. The one thing I don’t like I like playing first touches. So like the more times we come down and touch this area the less likely I feel like

It’s going to bounce. you know, even though it may continue to work, I like first touches. You know, yeah, you can kind of scout this out of this zone. I wouldn’t buy anything above this zone. I would keep going, but my stop would pretty much be. This is uh the 60 minute uh imbalance. I would probably be out anything below this is probably where I’m out at. That’d be my stop. And then we just kind of chop. It’s kind of the

The chop to the rest of the day. You know, you can see we came back up here, came down. I kind of play these as support and resistance areas, but some of them I don’t I don’t look at. I’m looking at the top of the ranges and the bottom of the ranges. When you created like we created an order block in here and we weren’t I wasn’t I wasn’t really looking for that. I was looking to come back where we were

Came back here and then the short was when we came all the way back up here, especially that we were getting towards 2 o’clock. It was kind of like a It was a great setup. That’s why I made this video. It was just the day played out unbelievable. Does it always play out flawless for me personally? No. And I did really good on Friday. I made a lot of money daily payout with take-profit trader and things really worked out. But that’s

Kind of how I like playing it. I like it on there. I like to see confluence with other indicators that I have. So, I like when there’s a fair value gap that overlays uh a breaker block or an order block. It just kind of adds, you know, as you see up here. I’ll show you all. So, I use uh I use this fair FVG nephew Sam. And you can see when we came back up here, you have a fivem minute fair

Value gap here. and a 15-minute fair value gap. And then you got, you know, the uh order block. Like I I’m I’m probably taking that short. I’m probably going to test it out and take it short. The more things that are there, the better for me. And that’s kind of what I’m looking for. I’m I’m I’m looking for areas like that. Obviously, if we would have taken this and probably have broken out past 51, I might have changed my bias. But

As we sit here, this was a great short opportunity. Also, you kind of got a flag right here little flag. If we break that, you kind of ride it to the downside. So, that’s pretty much how I play it. I mean, listen, I’m sure there’s a thousand other ways other people play it. I’m more on the scalper side, so I’m not looking to hold this for an hour or three hours. This is more hit it with large size and out. Uh,
