Shadowing Practice: Trade ALL TIME HIGHS with this Manipulation Candle! (LIVE Trade Examples) - Learn English Speaking with Video

Creating lesson...
1
Six years ago when the market was ripping through all-time highs, I did what most retail traders do.
2
I tried to top-tick the market.
3
I shorted constantly and got burned and blew account after account after account and eventually lost all my life savings.
4
Fast forward to today, I've completely flipped the script.
5
Instead of fighting the trend, I've learned how to ride those massive breakouts using precise and repeatable setups.
6
The turning point for me was discovering the manipulation candle, which reveals the real intention of smart money.
7
In this video, I'm going to show you the exact rule-based system that I use to take these trades.
8
Zero discretion, it's 100% mechanical and removes all the guesswork.
9
If you are tired of getting caught on the wrong side of explosive moves,
10
this is for you so before we dive in a quick heads up trading involves significant risk
11
and isn't suitable for everyone and most retail traders accounts lose money
12
and i'm not a financial advisor and this video is for educational
13
and entertainment purposes only and never trade with money you can't afford to lose
14
so first of all let me show you the top-down analysis
15
that you will need in order to make sure
16
that you are first of all riding the trend to your all-time highs
17
and getting the precise entries on the lower time frames.

21
Were you also trying to top tick the market and revenge rate just like me?
22
Let me know in the comments.
23
So what you can see right here, I have some red candlesticks, right?
24
So my bullish candles are blue.
25
My bearish ones are white.
26
And I have some red candles in there that's basically our custom indicator
27
which shows the manipulation can okay
28
so let's talk about the manipulation candle it's a candle
29
that takes out the low and the high of the previous candle
30
and in a bullish scenario closes above the wick of the previous cancer right here basically you can see
31
that perfect and also here and here is a bearish example right
32
so you get get the point why is this candle so strong
33
because right here within this previous candlestick what's going to happen is there are going to be buyers
34
and sellers position right to either go to upside to the downside continue this bearish trend right
35
that we had before these all-time highs right
36
and then we'll also have some early buyers so what's happening when this manipulation candle prints When it takes out the low,
37
it stops out early buyers who put their stock below that candle.
38
And then it will also trigger breakout sellers.
39
So sellers who want this move to continue to the downside.
40
So that's why this candle is so powerful.
41
Because right here below that low is where the biggest manipulation happens.
42
Quick break here, guys.
43
Most of you are prop firm traders.
44
And today's sponsor is PropFirm Match, a platform where you can compare different evaluations of different prop firms

47
And on top of that, you can get huge discounts and loyalty points if you use PropFirm Match.
48
So if you are interested, check it out with the link in the description.
49
And then the second biggest manipulation is when we break above that high.
50
So what happens?
51
All these sellers have to close out their short positions.
52
And that will fuel the move to the upside even more
53
because they have to buy back their position to exit their shorts.
54
That's exactly what happens within this manipulation candle.
55
And this manipulation candle is the origin of every big move in the market.
56
Okay, you can see here multiple times the move to the all-time highs was supported by manipulation candles.
57
And also right here, you can see it again last year's tariff wars, right?
58
Manipulation candle, another manipulation candle.
59
And the move just got supported with the manipulation candles.
60
So now we have another leg to the upside with new all-time highs.
61
Now we'll go down to the lower time frames
62
and I'll show you how I frame my trades and be able to take those breakout steps.
63
If you want to know my exact framework, how I went from inconsistent
64
and unprofitable to consistently profitable i will be doing a complete
65
master class on may 27th this is going to be completely
66
for free make sure you register with the link in the description
67
so now we are on the four hour time frame
68
and you can see the exact same thing again another bullish
69
mc right here another one here also bullish mc here
70
and here so you get the point right
71
and yes it's talking about every time right so full transparency
72
but the win rate is extremely high
73
and this is just going to be used for the overall direction
74
and to get into the setups
75
so same thing on the one hour time frame you can see it here again
76
and again how the mcs are supporting the up move
77
so that's going to be very very crucial
78
so now we are on the 50 minute time frame okay
79
and this is going to be the time for
80
that we're going to be using the most
81
and you can see how the manipulation candles are supporting price again
82
and again and again okay
83
and now i will show you exactly how i frame my trades how i get into these explosive moves
84
that happen when we are trading at all-time highs
85
so what i use on a daily basis for my trading is the volume profile
86
and some key levels printed by the market okay
87
so this is with my proprietary indicator but
88
if you don't have it don't worry you can use the
89
fixed range volume profile right here i'll let it start from
90
6 p.m of the previous day until the current market
91
and now let's just talk about two different scenarios that can happen
92
when we are at all-time highs the first scenario is we are already pushing up on the previous sessions
93
and we have already taken out the previous day high
94
so printed a new all-time high already before market open second
95
scenario is we range within the previous sessions okay i will show you an example of
96
that as well and then we will be able to take this move from the bottom okay
97
so basically two setups fake outs
98
and breakouts fake out to the downside where we want to position ourselves in the longs
99
so basically just like this one we build up a range we push up
100
and then we come down we get a pullback right here as you can see we get the manipulation candle
101
and then we go up and up and up
102
so this is the second one which is the fake out
103
and this one right here is going to be the breakout scenario Two setups, fake out or break out.
104
And I'll show you exactly how to get into those with an extremely high rate.
105
So right here, what we can see with the volume profile is the following.
106
We are at the point of control and the weekly value area hot.
107
And it's always a good sign that we are building value above the value area hot.
108
Because that means higher prices are being accepted by market participants.
109
Most of the time, that is an extremely bullish sign.
110
So now we are just waiting for market to open and for entry model to print with the manipulation cannon.
111
So here on the five minute time frame, as you can see, and my proprietary indicator gives me the long as well.
112
So right here, we take out the previous session low, manipulate to the downside.
113
So everyone who was trying to short the all time high, just like me a few years ago, got trapped right here, right?
114
And then they got stopped out and them getting stopped out fueled this move even more.
115
And that's why it pushed with extreme momentum.
116
And then what's another confirmation?
117
We are closing above the previous day's high.
118
So now this gives me a really, really solid entry opportunity.
119
And then you just enter right there and then know exactly that's not what we are going to do.
120
We always need a plan.
121
So what's the plan?
122
Right here when it was saying TP, that was my one-to-one.
123
And the one-to-one is very crucial.
124
Why?
125
Because that is going to be my break-even point.
126
So when the price hits the one-to-one, that's the exact point, I will move my stop loss to my entry point
127
and then my full target will be the one to two
128
so now i have another manipulation candle printing right here retesting the previous days high closing above the value area high,
129
as you guys can see right here.
130
And what's crucial, we are accepting higher prices.
131
Okay.
132
And this is shown by this high volume node.
133
Look at this.
134
There's a lot of volume being transacted, which means this is price acceptance by big institutions.
135
So now this is your second entry.
136
And again, when you hit the one-to-one you'll go break even
137
and then you'll target the complete one-to-two
138
and then there is your one-to-one on both setups there is your one-to-two on the first setup
139
and there's your one-to-two on the first one
140
and within this video i will also show you the exact
141
stats the win rates how many trades you can get with this exact framework okay
142
so just stick with me and try to understand the model
143
so now let me show you the second trade example right here okay
144
so first of all what we can see is
145
that we have pushed through the previous day's high right it says pdh right previous days high
146
and we are seeing again that the price is being accepted by big institutions
147
and we can see this by the volume profile otherwise we will be all the way down here
148
and we are still pushing up to new all-time highs we're coming back
149
and now this is going to be 9 30 on the 500 timeframe
150
so right here what you can see is
151
that we are rejecting from the point of control again what happens we take out the previous sessions low
152
and then we close above the previous candles high this is your entry trigger
153
so where are we rejecting from exactly from this high volume
154
node we're rejecting from the highest high volume node of the day
155
so this means everyone is interested in buying
156
or selling at this price point
157
and right at these points is where smart money big institutions are going to go ham
158
and are going to fill in their orders
159
and with this manipulation you get the exact entry trigger
160
that you need for high probability setups
161
so again what did we say we go into this trade right
162
when this manipulation candle closes right
163
and then we put our stop loss below the candle
164
and we target a one to two remember at one to one we will go break even
165
so right here the one to one got hit
166
so we already get break even but what i want to show you is can
167
And you see the difference now in this high volume node and this one right here.
168
During the main New York session, which starts with 9.30, market is accepting higher and higher prices.
169
Value is being built at higher price points, which is an extremely bullish sign again.
170
And that's why when I'm in my trades and when I'm making my notes, I'm always checking how the volume profile is developing.
171
You just have to put it on extend right with these settings and you're good to go.
172
And just watch how volume is being built on the profile.
173
And right here, we are now at the value area high.
174
And this is now the breaking point.
175
Are we going to push through the value area high or are we going to reject?
176
Okay, that's the main question now.
177
But we are at break even.
178
So we don't risk anything.
179
Worst case scenario, we'll make some fees back.
180
Best case, we made poor R.
181
So price pulls back from the value area high
182
and then a clean move to the upside where we hit our 1 to 2.
183
And as you can see, again, the value is shifting higher and higher.
184
The point of control is going up and up and up.
185
I want to be very transparent with you.
186
With this exact framework, you won't have the 100% win rate.
187
And with our proprietary indicator, it's being backtested constantly constantly right here you can see the
188
win rate this being calculated in real time usually throughout the
189
week on one asset you'll get three to five setups what
190
i want to show you is the win rate is extremely
191
high it doesn't make sense to try to top take the market
192
when we are all-time highs just trust the trend
193
and go with the trend let me show you an example how you can play the shorts
194
when we are at all time highs as you can see
195
right here we had some very nice moves we talked about this trade already
196
and then we started ranging this is a range of two to three days guys okay
197
so what i do with these kind of ranges is i
198
just start to fix range volume profile whenever we start to range
199
and then extend it to the right so
200
when I'm seeing this volume profile and
201
if you have watched my volume profile master class you will notice this is a p-shaped volume profile
202
so this is actually a very bullish volume profile but
203
if you know how to use it then you'll be able to take the breakouts
204
and also the breakdown So now on this day, what can we see?
205
So first of all, structure is bearish, right?
206
And when we go on the one hour time frame, we can see that yes, the MC support this move to the upside.
207
And now we have another bullish MC after this move right here.
208
This is now the crucial point.
209
When we go to market open,
210
we have to look exactly what the daily profile is doing and where we are within the overall profile of this range.
211
OK, so again, I'll go to 6 p.m and then mark out the value profile.
212
And here you can now see the B-shaped value profile.
213
If you watch my masterclass, you will know exactly that this is a bearish sign.
214
And where are we constantly rejecting from?
215
First of all, the previous day low, the point of control, and we have the value area high of this profile right here
216
and the value area low of the range profile right in here.
217
I want you to watch these levels very, very precisely.
218
And remember, guys, whenever we are ranging at highs, this is a bullish sign.
219
Whenever we are ranging at lows, this is a bearish sign because that shows acceptance.
220
Acceptance is the most important thing we have to focus on we are seeing acceptance through the volume profile.
221
Look at this day.
222
No acceptance at highs, but a lot of acceptance at lows.
223
And this is the main difference.
224
So now we'll go to market open.
225
Okay.
226
And you can see this is now market open.
227
It attempted to make a manipulation candle.
228
It took out the high, took out the low, but nothing as of now.
229
Again, we are closely watching these levels.
230
So now I drop down to the 3 minute time frame.
231
You can see the 3 minute has a low win rate as well.
232
But what I want to see is what the market is doing at this level specifically.
233
And what I'm seeing is I'm getting a manipulation candle exactly from that weekly open.
234
You can see how the value area low shifted to the downside of this entire range.
235
And the value area high of today came down as well.
236
And then when I see that we are closing back below the previous day low, auto taking out the session size,
237
etc. Tapping into weekly open and then closing below the point of control of today as well.
238
This is my sign to go in short.
239
And yes, I'm being completely transparent with you guys.
240
These are riskier moves, right?
241
Because we want to position ourselves with the overall trend.
242
But these are positions that you can take mainly once a week with some clear structure, right?
243
It's very, very clear.
244
We are retesting the P.
245
So this is not a fake breakdown anymore because value is being built.
246
Okay, I want you to focus on that.
247
As you can see right here, we are pushing up, pushing down, and eventually price goes to our target.
248
But before that, we would have gotten stopped out at break even.
249
So I wanted to show you these kind of things as well.
250
It can happen that you are going to get stopped out at break even.
251
There's no problem with that.
252
But the analysis was correct.
253
We retested the previous day low once more and then dropped it from there.
254
So before I end this video, I want to give you some very, very useful tips on how to trade at all time highs.
255
First of all, always remember the trend is your best friend.
256
I would rather take all the wins throughout the all-time highs, right?
257
Always longing, taking the fake outs, taking the breakouts, and always trying to look for longs.
258
So I have a very high win rate.
259
And when the longs don't work out anymore, when that reversal happens, then I'll take a stop or maybe two.
260
But the trades that I've taken before that will make up for those losses
261
and I will have a chunk of profits already secured.
262
that's why i just stopped looking for reversals i would describe
263
myself as a thread following trader i would recommend you the same thing

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
