what is the best trading strategy for beginners it's definitely not short selling and definitely not chasing breakouts in my opinion a strategy needs to have a set of simple criteria and repeatable patterns then and only then it can be considered a good strategy that's profitable and suitable for Traders of all levels I've made hundreds of videos on strategies that you can learn and apply to your own trading today I want to challenge you to follow the step-by-step strategy lesson closely by the end of this video you would have picked up the strategy that I personally
consider to be my A+ setup the gappa reversal long strategy that made me over $7,000 today in this video you're going to learn three golden criteria for you to use as your strategy checklist the psychological and Technical factors behind this long strategy understand what really makes this pattern repeatable and suitable for beginners for timing entry signals as well as a live trading example of how I executed this strategy and made over $7,000 in under 30 minutes I do spend a lot of time to plan and create these kind of educational videos if you want to
see more make sure to drop a like down below no it's not going to make you Lamborghini money but I genuinely appreciate your support and motivation to kick off this particular strategy that I used for two trades today that made over $77,000 in total you should learn the three golden criteria first so number one you want to see a huge overnight Gap up so for example here the stock gapped up from $79 to over $98 premarket this is a over 5% overnight Gap up number two you want to see a very strong positive Catalyst in
this case for the stock they beat on earnings on all3 metrics and number three you want to see a very bullish daily chart so in this particular example here you can see we're gapping up over the daily resistance at 93 95 96 and also $98 and that's what I mean by a very strong bullish daily chart and we'll go over each of these criteria in detail in just a little bit now let's talk about the psychological and Technical factors behind this Gap up reversal long strategy of course we talked about earlier you want to see
a huge overnight Gap up and not just any Gap up you want to see a gap up in this case with very positive earnings Catalyst and once again like I explained many times on this channel the reason you want to look for these gappers have gapped up so much overnight due to positive catalyst is because you want to have other investors Traders institutions be attracted into the stock to create volume and range for you to profit from that's the whole reason ddog was able to Gap up from 79 to $96 premarket and even after that
continue to break through $100 here pre-market highs and then slowly Trend all the way up to 104 that's the kind of range we're talking about we're not talking about 50 cents move we're talking about a stock that can move two three 5 10 points in one day now let's take a look at the technical analysis on this particular stock now the reason you want a huge gapa premarket and not just any Gap up you want to see the stock already kind of trending up pre-market so you can see after hours it gapped up pre-market this
morning it despite a little pullback at around 8:00 had the pullback from 98 down to $94 but you later on reclaimed that pre-market vwap over here reclaimed on the 5 minute chart and slowly reclaimed to 98 99 this provides you the pre-market level to use those intraday support and you can see that premarket support area 995 $96 range is what I'm going to be using as key level later on in a live trading recording and once you have that key Lev level to use from both the daily chart as well as intraday you can use
that level to plan your risk entry areas and potential profit targets so in this case if I get in around this $96 area I want to be aiming for that pre-market resistance around 9950 will $100 Mark and even higher to the daily chart you can see over that 100 you have upside to 101 here as well as on this little wiek on the daily 102 twos and potentially even higher to 104 now before I dive into the live trading example to go over this trade step by step with you let's talk about what makes this
particular strategy or pattern so repeatable and suitable for beginner traders to get started so the first reason I think this is a very great strategy for new traders to get started is because it's easy to find these stocks like I said earlier with all the criteria we just mentioned these gaps UPS especially on large cap and midcap stocks they happen very often among these stocks like apple Tesla you know ddog or even cheaper stocks like block or coinbase and you can do that with either paid or free scanners as well now the next reason I
think this is a very beginner friendly strategy is that the technical support and resistance levels on The Daily charts especially like I showed you earlier are very likely to form and very easy to plan out like I said earlier if you just use a daily chart on this example here you can see all the potential support resistance and you can use your intraday chart to kind of reaffirm your thesis it's quite simple I shouldn't use the word easy it's simple to plan your entries risk award and upside price Target next let's talk about planning for
these entries you're not buying a breakout on this particular strategy you're buying the Breakthrough of the key level consolidation and you're watching it pull back and slowly grind up higher that's the reason you're going to see in my live trading recording I use the five minute chart as well as the twom minute chart you'll see in a live trading example that I'm not getting in at the high of the day breakout I'm buying on these little pullbacks at 97 vwat reclaim and uh once it starts consolidating over n that $99 dollar area and then selling
into the breakout and this is how you can also plan to have a decent risk reward when you're buying the breakout a lot of times once the stock breaks out let's say at right here at 101 you're immediately running into resistance a dollar or $2 doar later you don't have time to let this thing reclaim vwap reclaim pre-market highs and slowly Trend up okay enough talking now let's dive into this live trading example of executed this particular strategy on two different trades and made over $7,000 in 30 minutes we're going to talk about commentary on
the two stocks and my executions you're going to see my entry stop loss as well as profit Target and how I read price action to stay in a winner and let it work so you can see over here Market had just opened it's 9:30 a.m. Market time you can see ddog 2minute chart at the bottom here you can see I I got in one once the stock test that vwap area you know the pre-market VW we talked about earlier at around 97 80s I started in with 1 th000 shares now my plan is to slowly
add into it uh my starter size on this will actually be 500 shares but uh I think today I'm feeling quite good about the stock fast forward you know a couple minutes later well only about 2 minutes later you can see we're still teetering around the 9740 area I'm down about 40 cents but I'm not panicking I'm looking at the stock looking at we're going to hold that premarket vwap or are we actually going to test that key level I planned out at $96 you can you can see I have an order sitting there seeing
if I'm going to get filled fast forward a little bit you can see what still trading around that $977 area with a small pull back here and there by one point but once again this ddog moves in big ranges you cannot be risking just a dollar and it only went down to 96 you know 40s for a split second let's see does it break down or does it slowly consolidate and reclaim you can see on the top I like to switch back and forth between the 2 minute and the 5 minute chart on the top
over here you can see I'm looking at a two-minute chart I'm looking okay are we really selling off or are we just slowly holding that you know pre-market support area around $96 you can see I'm trying to see if I can like just add a little bit down here at $96 on the five minute chart you can and as well as the two-minute chart you can see a little Wicks at the bottom of the candle getting bought back up to me that's a bullish sign especially for a stock that has such a strong Catalyst of
earnings beat we are testing that vwap area on the 2-minute chart so my starter size is usually 500 shares you're going to see me trim it down from 1,000 down to 500 just to be safe after all we're still within 10 minutes of the market open I train 500 shares just to you know reduce my risk a little bit during this uncertain period so I'm down to 500 sh 500 shares at 97 80s average I realized a loss of $380 you can see at the bottom screen here on the five minutes we're immediately jumping over
VW I added back in a th000 shares that gave me an average of 9790 and we are already skipping up that's the thing with this uh ddog it's a stock I've traded in the past when it breaks out it kind of Skips in dollars when it sells off it sells off slowly in like 20 cents so I'm glad I got in you can see on the top on the two-minute chart we are already skipping through to $99 that's how fast these things go again bullish daily charts down here that's really great to see you can
see on the daily charts you are breaking out um through that $96 premarket you really don't have any like strong resistance until 101 102 is on the daily so that's the the beauty of having a daily chart on the side um as well as your in day chart so you can see the bigger picture as you probably know from my videos my trading strategies that involve scalping momentum and shooting they require a very fast broker platform I have some exciting news from the broker I personally use Centerpoint Securities is now finally open in Canada once
again you can now open an account with a lowered minimum of $20,000 and get one month free of Dash to the pro that's the broker platform you see in all my my YouTube videos if you want extremely fast order executions extensive short location and routing options then you should definitely check out sender point with a link down below and we are already testing that $100 Mark uh I added some more over here as you can see add up here uh 500 shares now I have 2,000 shares at $98 and the 38 cents average I sold
a little bit should have held it but uh I I did sell 300 shares at around $100 because I think I was looking at that pre-market resistance right here you can see um on the yellow line that premarket resistance trying to be safe but sometimes uh you don't want to be too conservative I sold a little bit more it was a shame into that 180s no worries I still have a remainder of 1400 shares we're pulling back to that $99 area but the action still holds up quite well you can see this ddog despite that
$100 rejection you're not getting like a I give you pause here on the top two minute chart you're still yes you are below that $100 area the resistance but uh you're holding up the $99 quite quite all right um so you're holding up you're not seeing like a instant rejection down to vwap so to me you know it's a good sign the stock needs time to slow consolidate to go up higher this is around the time I noticed snow looking at that 57s um that's the daily resistance as well as I also do did a
quick due diligence on the Catalyst and the daily chart so identify that as the same setup as ddog you can see on the bottom leftand corner snow daily chart once you clear through that 157 you have a lot of upside to 160 161 so added some more you can see added back to 2,000 shares at ddog at that $99 Mark now I have an average of $98 78 because I see it consolidate I see a testing that premarket highs once again what a monster I'm up a little bit over unrealized 5 $4,000 with 2,000 shares
and uh at the time Market's also trending up quite nicely hope you guys are following Along on this strategy and using our strategy checklist on screen here if you're enjoying the video so far please remember to drop a like down below I really appreciate it also reminder that you can get a free weekly watch list of all the stocks I'm watching for the next week you can do that by signing up with the email down below fast forward I sold into the 101s I believe yeah I sold in the 101's so I realized a total
of 144 $0000 oh a little bit more now realizing $3,100 now I have a remainder of 730 shares on ddog with the same average as before I think I just started managing way too many positions as you can see I have like Nvidia at the bottom and I was also looking at snow but uh so fast forward now you can see on the top window I'm entering snow the exact same strategy as ddog entering only 500 shares same strategy also a nice gapa reversal long on the daily chart very strong Market overall today so you
can see on the top here after that 157's broken out of you're upside to 161 so that's where I'm a with 500 shares averaging about 15820 so I'm essentially risking a dollar per share on snow and on ddog my average is so well now not I wouldn't let this go into negative can see I'm just trying to let it work I'm being patient on the five minute chart on ddog trying to see like okay are you going to consolidate and go higher ddog testing higher day $80 we're pulling back a little bit on both snow
and ddog I know a lot is happening at the same time it's been a while since I've had like four actually three positions open at same time um so it was a it was a very exciting day uh quick recap ddog I still have 700 shares um and the snow I still have the 500 shares I haven't sold any but I think my target on this is 161 and both of this the snow and ddog they are the exact same strategy I wish I had allocated the same amount of position for snow but uh it's
like I said it's hard for me to manage a a lot of positions I once so I usually choose to focus on one uh ticker which is ddog and then kind of like switch back and forth and look at um snow Nvidia and like you know all the other tickers at the bottom so you can see I sold 200 shares on snow at 160 so locking about two $2 per share almost you can see I realized about $340 and I still have unrealized $520 nice Breakout on snow this one I never got a chance to
add um other than my starter of 500 shares ddog is now testing 102s at the bottom window you can see I'm looking to sell everything into that 102's breakout snow is also breaking out as well testing that 161s like we talked about nice locking in $4,000 on ddog now I only have 300 shares left snow is now on the top here one you can see I'm trying to sell 162s I don't know if I end up getting that but uh it's getting there 160 170s is the ask as you see here I mean these are
very very strong Candlestick Trends we're talking about on the five minute chart these are three four five green very bullish candles that's how you read price action you just sit here and you let it work the candles are doing just fine it's not choppy it's not pulling back it's just straight up slow and steady okay ddog now testing 103s I believe I'm going to get out all of it right here yeah so I just sold the remainder 300 shares at 103 on ddog locking in $5,800 on this particular stock let's take a look at what
I'm about to do with snow because that's the exact same strategy now I I believe I'm gonna try to lock in snow at 161 120s with a remainder of 300 shares sold at 16120 so locking in $1,200 on snow so together on these two tickers both are the gapa reversal Lum strategy that is a total of $7,000 profit on the day once again on this particular strategy you're looking for um an overnight Gap up like you see on ddog and you can see the same on snow same overnight Gap up from 144 over to 156
very positive Catalyst on both of these tickers and you have a very bullish daily chart and you're gapping up over the recent daily resistance you can see snow a huge gap up over that know 15 156s 158 and that gives you decent upside all the way to these daily resistance areas around 161 162 I hope you learned a lot from today's strategy lesson and apply this to your own trading starting tomorrow obviously there's only so much you can learn in one short YouTube video so if you're interested in learning more in-depth strategies then there's actually
