The Setup:
The setup is a set of rules based on 3 indicators that help us create/spot a pattern in the market that gives us an edge. A statistical advantage that if
used correctly would allow us to grow our accounts gradually on a daily weekly or monthly basis. The objective of every trader is indeed, "Achieving
Consistency" in trading their Edges/Setup over and over without mistakes as described by Mark Douglas in Trading in the Zone. If you understand and
strengthen the belief that trading is a "Pattern recognition numbers game" you will create, automatically, a Burning Desire for Consistency and
your problem of Self Discipline and Patience will be taken care of automatically. If you believe that you are trading for Consistency and not just
putting winning trades only, you will automatically say "NEXT" regardless of the outcome of a trade that you have taken following your trading plan.
We used 3 indicators mainly to help create our setup. The alligator, AIMS Boxes and AIMS Waves. The combination of these indicators together create
the setup. The setup is our statistical edge. We all understand that. The next thing we all know is that our aim is to trade Breakouts in the Direction
of Higher Time Frame Trends. And so we always try to trade with the higher time frame trend.
An Important Lesson:
Trading the shorter time frames has its advantages and disadvantages.
One huge advantage of lower time frames is Low Risks. 10 Pips Stop Loss Entries are very low risk.
The downside is Screen Time. The more we stay in front of the screen the more we lose focus and make mistakes.
Emotionally Demanding:
The time-space distance between one trade and another is too short. The heat that we feel after we have a losing trade or a mistake trade requires
time to dissipate, it needs time to dissolve and neutralise. So when traders trading the shorter faster time frames do not know how to cool down
before looking at the markets again, they may put themselves in to a very difficult situation.
When a trader experiences resistance he/she is unable to see the market objectively. A trader experiences resistance when current events (trades)
go against his/her expectations and he/she is not ok with it then he/she may react negatively resulting in heat, he/she gets emotionally charged.
And when this happens, logical thinking, clarity, and objectivity go out of the window. This is called the emotionally charged state of mind, the
opposite of Care Free State of Mind.
In the emotionally high state of mind, we experience either highly negatively or positively charged energy. That energy is felt by us in the form of
emotions such as:
Negatively Charged Emotions
1. Boredom
2. Pessimism

The state of mind required for Peak Performance is what we call the state of Being in The Zone. It is a Care Free State of Mind. You cannot enter
the zone without the following conditions that allow you to enter the zone.
1.
2.
3.
4.
Enjoyment You are having great fun, you are having a blast
Focus You have keen awareness, you are present and alert
Relaxation You are free from extreme anxiety, there is no stress Care Free
Self Trust You have confidence in your judgement and in your trading strategy.
It is an absolute MUST that you know what your state of mind is. We as human beings do not stay at one frequency for a longer time. We react and
respond to our environment. If there is a negatively charged event sending us impulses, we experience it and react accordingly.
You have a losing trade you react with a negatively charged emotion. You have a winner you go into the state of joy.
When you react negatively, you experience stress. When you are stressed you respond in the Fight or Flight instinct, that we have learned from our
ancestors over thousands of generations. At the core of human survival we have two sets of perceptions. We respond with positive emotions and
vibrate positive frequency to events that we perceive as positive/good and the opposite for negative/bad events.
Some bad events require us to either Fight it off or run away from it. Both responses are essential for survival. It all depends on the perception
process. If your mind perceives threat you will automatically respond in one of the two reactions. You will either Fight it or take a Flight.
Ready to Fight!
If you chose to fight, you would experience Anger, Rage, Hatred, and Aggression. Naturally you need stronger muscles and you need quick body
actions. Your heart beat starts to race, your body pumps more adrenaline in your body and youre ready for a fight. Notice how your breathing goes
faster when you get angry. Your muscles stretch, your face expressions changes (communicating that you are angry and ready to fight as a form of
deterrent). Animals raise their voices, take stances that make them look bigger etc.

The SEED?
The Strategy perfectly incorporates the greatest market fact "Higher Probability Setups and Breakouts in the Direction of Higher Time Frame Trends".
This pattern in the market is a perfect example of Fractal Geometry just like the Elliott Wave. Each fractal formation as a seed fractal. "The seed of
the fractal is the pattern defined by the equation which is repeating throughout the fractal. All life on the earth are fractals too. Fractals made of
recursive process of progeny. And we make larger fractal patterns like family, community and countries and global. And we are made of smaller
fractal patterns atoms, molecules, cells and organs."
Quote:
So I am a seed. A recursive pattern. In that sense I am very old. Millions of years old. And I am everywhere. And I am you.

It has ticked all the boxes a successful trading system gives you. It is an integrated solution.
100% OBJECTIVE Entry System (Anyone is able to see whether there is a Long or Short - No more confusion)
100% OBJECTIVE Money and Trade Management.
It is Built on a concept we already trade on a daily basis yet further crystallized. .
It is simple.
It does not involve Lagging or repainting Indicator for entries.
It allows us to take Entries with Very Low Initial Risk with Unlimited (or at least very high) Potential for Profits.
It is integrated approach that allows you to trade at Pivot Point of Time Frames.
It allows us to USE SL Distance equal to that of M1/M5/m15 Time frames but
It allows us to take profits equal to that of H1/H4/D1 Time Frames
e.g. in most cases a Max 20 Pip Stop Loss Required with over 100-300 pips winners.
It has the least amount of screen time making you Work Less and Making Your Money Work Hard for you.
Work Less Make More by Minimizing screen time and prolonging trade times. Losing trades last minutes, winning trades could last days/weeks or even
months.
We often Forget so we must make sure we always remind ourselves. Our mind really works like THE RAM of your computers.
Remember This:

Immyster ... I stayed up all night and analysed one years worth of IBs on AU, EU, GU and EJ H1 charts for you. I painstakingly typed all the results
into spreadsheets for you (ok, so I didn't really stay up all night and there wasn't much painstaking going on).
Some interesting results there and some nice pips ...

Thank You Very Much... That shows thousands of pips during the last year or so...

Steve - Great work, although I can't see how you worked out the MaxPipsUp and MaxPipsDown columns?

Thanks Darren - I looked forward a 1000 bars to find the highest/lowest point before price came down/up to the close of the IB. If price didn't return
to the IB close within the 1000 bars, I just took the high/low. If it came back with 10 bars, I took the high/low between those 10 bars ... at least that
was the plan; I haven't checked all the values.

Great short EJ trades Immy - but looking at them on H1 they were above the H1 Gator. I can see the pin bar and then the doji SEED and I guess the
pin bar made you look for the shorts, but would you have a taken a long as well as it was above the gator?
Cheers,
Darren
P.S. Love to know what that blacked out trade is - wow!!!

Hi Guys,
Registered User
I was trading the seed strategy today as well on the GBP/USD and USD/JPY and 9AM and 8AM est respectively, both losers. I know where was a FED
announcement at 10, but the odds were that it was going to spur the dollar higher (which it ended up doing). Should we be avoiding news? or was I
just unlucky and did not pick the two candles on the EUR/JPY that won today.
Can we get a Chatzy/Skype room for this trade. I and definitely excited to do the research on this but do not want to interupt the flow of the other
room.
Best,
FXBandit

Hi Andrew,
I think Immy generally avoids placing a trade a few minutes before any red news announcement, but if you are already in a trade then you have the
option to let it run if it is a free trade!
Chatzy is open all day long but is basically active during the London/Early New York session. Have you joined the room yet? Questions are most
welcome!
Cheers.
