Melissa's trading plan

Why am I trading?

I am trading because of my passion to try and curve the learning experience for all traders.

What is my approach?

My goal is to help you identify these supply and demand levels to help your trading become consistent. I believe this is the tool missing with most retail traders. 

Financially I like to stay humble and realize the market can take just as fast as it gives. I would like to secure a financial future for my loved ones

My main goal is overall long term growth intra day and swing trading. I dont take money out of my account. 

What are my objectives

My objective is to hold myself and members accountable to their trading plans. Trade your plan, execute your plan.

What timeframes will I trade?

As a supply and demand trader my go to’s are the yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly daily, 4hr, and 5min time frames. These do change regularly to keep my edge on the market

What setups will I trade?

  • Supply And Demand Manually Drawn

  • Trendy Edge Setups

  • Line in the sand (LIS) Setups

  • ACDC bull/bear

  • PreMarket Zone (PMZ) Setups

  • Trendy Band Setups

  • I like to use the TTM squeeze pro and histogram against all my levels.

Entry Rules

Every Trendy setup is an opportunity but always know that zero is possible. While there are several variables to take into account to make the trade better, what you wait for or don’t wait for before entering a trade is maybe the greatest variable. (i.e. “Timing”)

Depending on what type of trader you are, here are a few entry options to consider when price is setting up:

  1. Most Conservative: Wait for a candle close

  2. Aggressive: Only wait for a higher high/lower low or take the trade

  3. Most Aggressive: Take the touch or break of an entry level based on momentum regardless if the candle closes

Where will I place my stops?

I don’t place stops based off percentage, I place stops based on what the setup is and my allocation of risk on that setup.

Exit take profit (and/or) trail-stops rules

I take profit at supply and demand zones, I rarely use trailing stops but teach how to incorporate this technique.

Risk managment rules

Always be willing to lose what you are risking. You need to be comfortable with your management of risk.

Pre-market activities or routine

Wake up and review the /ES futures and create my plan.

I use trade flash on ThinkorSwim to find setups and use my scanners every morning.

I also use market catalysts to find setups, such as potential earnings on certain names that week I might be interested in.

I focus on 2-4 trades daily and I’m always looking for 2-3 Long-Term swings

Post-market activities or routine

Detaching from the market and unwind! I like to review my trades with my members.

What tools will I use for my trading business?

  • Trendy Edges 

  • Trendy Bands/EMA Cloud 

  • Line in the Sand (LIS)

  • Premarket Zone (PMZ)

  • Label Studies

  • Squeeze Pro

Review/Trade Journal process

I like to review my trades with members.

Discipline and mindset notes

Stick to your plan, stay patient and wait for our levels. Use your tools with your process, if price isnt at the levels then no trade. Wait for your setup and dont front run it. We aren’t perfect and sometimes rules are broken but I’m a believer in rules broken in trading make you a better trader in time

My mindset has been heavily influenced by the work of Mark Douglas and his books.

My Golden Rules (and/or) Trading Commandments

Trade your plan, what’s important is the allocation of your money and how comfortable you are with risk. My commandment is that you are truly comfortable with the trade you are taking and that you’re ok with losing money. Trading involves losing and winning, know that.
