My NEW UPDATED Trading Strategy for 2026 (70% Winrate)

Summary

Key Points

• The presented four-step trading strategy aims for a 70% win rate by providing more setups and opportunities for profitable trading in the 2026 markets. 0:28
• The first step involves defining the higher time frame bias (bullish or bearish) by observing fair value gaps and identifying the most obvious swing high or low as the draw on liquidity. 6:18
• CISDs are defined by a body close above or below a series of candles that hit a fair value gap or intermediate low/high, while Rejection Blocks are wicks that trade into such areas. 7:24
• Step two focuses on identifying 2-3 valid key levels where price is likely to reverse, utilizing fair value gaps, intermediate highs/lows, Change in State of Delivery (CISDs), and Rejection Blocks across various timeframes. 7:31
• This updated strategy, incorporating CISDs and Rejection Blocks, offers more precise entries and higher quality opportunities compared to relying solely on fair value gaps. 12:36
• The third step requires waiting for an Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG) on lower timeframes (1-5 minute) to confirm that order flow has shifted after price interacts with a key level. 12:46
• For IFVG confirmation, traders should identify the highest time frame IFVG within the specific "manipulation leg" that hit the key level to ensure higher probability setups. 13:22
• The final step, execution and risk management, involves entering on the IFVG body closure, targeting low-hanging fruit with a 1:1 to 1:3 risk-reward, and placing stop losses typically at the swing low or high. 18:59
• Traders should limit themselves to one to two trades per day, stopping after one win or two losses, and primarily trade during the 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Eastern time "golden hour." 21:27
