📚 MASTERCLASS — HOW TO BUILD A COMPLETE TRADING SETUP
From blank chart to full trade plan. Step by step. 👇
This is the exact process I follow before EVERY trade.
Start to finish. Nothing skipped.
⏱️ TOTAL TIME: 20-30 minutes per asset
📌 STEP 1 — WEEKLY CHART (5 minutes)
Open Weekly. Ask:
• Making HH/HL? → Bullish bias
• Making LH/LL? → Bearish bias
• Where is the nearest BSL? (Potential target)
• Where is the nearest SSL? (Potential sweep zone)
• Any major OB untested on Weekly?
• What Wyckoff phase is this asset in?
Write down: "Weekly bias = [BULLISH/BEARISH]"
Write down: "Weekly BSL = [$X]" | "Weekly SSL = [$X]"
📌 STEP 2 — DAILY CHART (5 minutes)
Open Daily. Ask:
• Does Daily confirm Weekly bias?
• Any OB forming on Daily?
• Any FVG that hasn't been filled?
• Has Daily CHoCH occurred? (Retracement or reversal?)
• Where is price relative to 50% fib of last swing?
(Above 50% = premium | Below 50% = discount)
Write down: "Daily zone = [$X – $X]"
Write down: "Daily bias = [continuation or retracement]"
📌 STEP 3 — 4H CHART (5 minutes)
Open 4H. Ask:
• Has there been a 4H CHoCH toward my Daily zone?
• Is there a 4H OB inside the Daily zone?
• Is there a 4H FVG overlapping the OB?
• What does volume look like entering this zone? (VSA)
• Has SSL/BSL been swept on 4H?
Write down: "4H entry zone = [$X – $X]"
Write down: "VSA signal = [absorption/distribution/neutral]"
📌 STEP 4 — CONFLUENCE SCORING (2 minutes)
Run through the 7-point confluence checklist:
□ Structure alignment (Weekly + Daily + 4H)
□ Order Block present
□ FVG present
□ Liquidity swept
□ Premium/Discount confirmed
□ VSA confirms
□ Higher TF agrees
Score: __/7
Less than 4 → Skip
4-5 → Take at 1% risk
6-7 → Take at 2% risk (max)
📌 STEP 5 — 15M ENTRY WATCH (ongoing)
Now switch to 15M and wait.
Don't enter yet. Watch for:
□ SSL sweep on 15M
□ 15M CHoCH after sweep
□ Engulfing confirmation candle
ONLY when all 3 appear → enter.
📌 STEP 6 — RISK CALCULATION (2 minutes)
Before clicking buy:
• Where is my SL? (Below sweep low)
• What is SL distance in %?
• Position size = (Account × 1%) ÷ SL%
• Calculate position size. Set it.
• Set TP1, TP2, TP3 as limit orders.
📌 STEP 7 — SET AND FORGET
Walk away.
Price alert set at each TP.
Do NOT watch every candle.
Trust the analysis. Trust the system. 🧠
📌 TOTAL PROCESS: 20-30 minutes of focused analysis.
Then patience.
The best traders are boring traders. 🎯
