🧵 THREAD
Here, you'll find...

A compilation of strategies for

📈 winning/mitigating loss.

⚠️ Not a professional,

and none of this is financial advice ⚠️

🤔 Who am I to be writing this?

I've grown a small account

$500 to over $2,500 in 2 months now.

Basic Principles I followed:
Lesson One:

If you mess up, it's likely your fault:

A. You didn't have a plan
B. You let your emotions make the decision.

Do the opposite of how everyone else is feeling.

Buy when they're depressed and selling to you,

Sell when they're euphoric entering the market.
Lesson Two: The Four Phases of the Market

The market is either

1. consolidating
2. beginning to uptrend
3. peaking
4. downtrending

that's it.

Where do we enter?

Long between the end of 1 and beginning of 2

Short at the end of 3, beginning of 4.
Lesson Three: The Elliot Wave

Great free lesson here -> https://www.elliottwave.com/en/Free-Reports/Elliott-Wave-Principle

To keep it simple...

Get in at 🌊 Wave 2 (Pullback) trough,

Get out at 🌊 Wave 5 (Peak) crest.

Note: DO NOT confuse Wave A with Wave 2, it is NOT a pullback, it's the BULL TRAP.
Lesson Four: Learn to Draw Trend Lines

Find 2-3 points to line up.

Match with your knowledge above of potential

Elliot Wave sequences

to figure out where 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, A, B, C, D, E are gonna occur.

It takes time and practice.
Lesson Five: Predicting Trend Changes

When studying a chart...

Ask yourself these 3 questions

1. Did the trend line get broken?

2. Did price movement fail a retest?

3. Did the price drop below previous low?

No on 2 or 3 above?

You're most likely out of a trend :)
