Hi. I've been trading for almost five years now and like to share the bottom wrung of my trading edge. Before any of you brainlets say "ooooh but how can you do this full time if you give away your edge."

I only give away the basics of the edge and my strategy is very computationally intensive with a high burden of knowledge to be useful. A vast majority of you won't put that time in and that's why I'm comfortable doing it.
Read this, for the general understanding of what I'm doing.

Then watch this hour long lesson on the absolute basics of volatility theory. Yes, the hair style and mustache were ironic so I could cosplay as a hipster Chad. It's a joke, treat it as such.

Then read Macro to Micro by Mark Whistler.

You’ll notice my charts are not TradingView this time. This is because my developer recently finished porting our indicators to MultiCharts .NET, a desktop client made by the parent company of TradingView which is a lot more powerful and runs all our stuff faster and with better resolution. We then pulled the entire 1m histories of Binance + BitMEX data and formatted it to play nice with MultiCharts .NET’s ASCII Mapping tools via API script. We'll actually let you download that for free. It's several gigs, since it's every single one minute candle on Binance and Bitmex turned into data plots. If you're interested in trying the indicators I'm using as well, you can use them for free for two weeks.
