How has this strategy been going?

I have come to realize that trading is very personal. Scalping is not new, but JF Boucher's style of scalping is refined to suite him. He has redefined his own method.

Thanks Etienne for interviewing him a third time. I love JFB and this is very close to the way I trade. Please in a few weeks/months have him again in your podcast...after all he gave the channel the highest. ..:)

Will do!

I was trading in a very similar way in a demo account, with way less risk management. I had the balance up to 80k from 50k in a couple days trading MNQ, and blew it up because I didn't know where to stop selling into a short to get my average position up. Besides not managing the risk, I was exiting my positions on a first in first out basis that would result in the initial closing of positions being losses, but still the current price was usually on the right side of my average position price when I started closing positions. Like he said it's a fun way to trade. When the price starts working in your favor you get to hit the button a bunch of times each for profit. As opposed to committing to hitting buy once and sell once and the pressure that comes with timing it right. Not gonna be efficient with per trade fees and commisions though.

One of the most inspirational people! Jean Francois Boucher, all love and respect

this is sooooooooo funny, because on my demo where I set sometimes no SL or a very big one with less risk or swing trade, I win most of the time, sooner or later the trades get in my favor, hit tp. but reality, with tighter SL or bigger risk or whatever, I lose. if I let the trades flow, it works out. if I care about SL I have more losses. i am so happy finally someone is talking about. never heard people discuss this.

My main take away from this is “risk” He’s found a way to silence the noise in his human brain with his style of spreading his risk across the board. Is this a form of hedging? This is by far the most interesting approach to risk/ trade management I’ve ever seen This isn’t even trading, it’s really art

What is the word. "martingale" and deep pockets.

Priceless 😮

I've learned for myself that scalping pretty much requires an investment of time spent on the chart, much like a job, from x time to x time. I scalp for an hour. The swing trading, that's easy, pop in an out. Five minutes or less. I find both trading styles fascinating.

This is exactly what I needed to hear. I go into panic mode when I go into drawdown and these KZreaders who don’t trade pounded in my head to cut my losses. As soon as I exit it almost always goes back to my entry and a lot of times goes to my target without me. Only average in if you go small size though

It seems like a solid way to generate extra income, but I wonder how it would affect one's portfolio in the long run.

If you have 4 boxes and the trade goes against you in the first box to the fourth box, isn't way more than 4 percent of your account at risk. The draw down into stop out would be massive, wouldn't it?

Yes it would be. He's basically advocating to continue adding to a bad trade while he's hoping and praying for the bad trade to turn around and give him a large enough move in the right direction. A bag holder mentality.

So those boxes are pretty much ATRs?

Very good eye opener! learn something from it only you says pushing your luck but if the system is everyday repeatable and 90% win rate there is no luck involved right?

I wish we knew what was his account at. We can't even see it and the camera moves to see what he won.

So essentially, his exit strategy involves averaging down on a losing trade in the hopes that the stock will decrease enough for him to exit the trade successfully. It's essential to have a sizable account to support this strategy. Good luck, and keep me posted on how it goes!

lost you at 13.40 when you said avg it . good luck to everyone who wants to follow

Sir this strategy is good, with this are there any possible ways of 90% predicting buy or sell bar, I'm just assuming so

daytrading the euro is like watching paint dry

What broker does he use? He seems to have zero spread on EURUSD, and I would be interested to know what the commissions are per trade, as I usually trade EURUSD but with a 2 pip spread, and that would make this method not so profitable 🤔

He holds MULTIPLE positions in drawdown, up to 36 pips, until they are ALL in profit 3 pips or more. His style only works for him because he is very very good at it.

"3" pip target, means he's not willing to take losses... .... allowing "36" pip drawdown..🤨

This is the best way to trade!!!!!.standard deviation.,.

he's a living example of a good trader... explaining what he is doing on unpredictable live markets, unlike the rest who is so dumb trying to discuss what they see on a closed market..

You can get in touch with John through his website in the description.

How did he create the box that size?

30-40 trades a day?! Wow! I thought the average price boxes is an excellent idea. Not sure I'm on board with the hedging type strategy. Obviously this gentleman is successful with it. I'd have to practice that. Right now I'm doing well with my method. But I am still always learning. I will try the box technique. Interesting. Wonder if it corresponds to Elliot waves and Fib retracements and extensions. Bet it does.

Is this the Euro future? What is the instrument and time frame?

I see a sellside liquidity grab, then a market structure shift and its going to buyside. You can have your box sir

Watching the trades in more detail, so he's typically taking just $4 total profit per trade, or up to 16 if he reaches max position size. But repeating around 40x in a two hour window?

@NeonNeuron

Yes, but with his risk factor always at 4%. So when one trade closes, he can open another trade if the opportunity presents. Therefore, the maximum amount of trades can be higher than 4 per box

Then you haven't watched Jean trade. He's taken some big losses but never blows his account. His risk is always 4%. When he hits a trending market and the trades extend beyond his 4 boxes, he loses at max 4%. He explains it all in the video.

@DiscoTuna

Ай бұрын

Catastrophic, = 4% of the account - max drawdown of the strat... If you define the risk % as 36 pips of your lot size = 1% of your account.. (which i think is what he is doing), then catastrophic = max 4%. If 1% of your account is defined as literally 1% of your capital, the max loss is 4% x 36 pips...Still might not kill you - I need to do the maths.

Anybody could summarise it by step by step. As per my understanding let say imagine as we try in altcoin. If daily spread of a coin is 10 usd. Average move 1 usd. Open for short position starting 101, 101,102,103,104 now 4 position. Current price 102. Close all position at once after immeditely average down the loosing position ? Is it the way?

his strategy basically is mean reversion just defined with boxes lol.

If i got that right, he's just lookin for a 3 PIP profit? while initially risking 36 PIPS? I know he manages drawdown as well but pretty crazy initial RR. Really cool seein people who don't have a traditional RR models

RR is mythology. Only 3-5 % of traders will be profitable if they are looking for a 1:4, 1:5, 1:6 RR. It is just too difficult for day traders to achieve this RR. You only trade once or twice a week with small profits. You lose 4 trades in a row just to win one. Psychologically, this is unsustainable. This is why 95% of traders burn their accounts.

How much leverage does he use?

Isn’t better to just use measured moves?

Cost averaging as a compensation for poor entry is a horrible practice, especially in day trading. Understand how much you can risk per trade and make sure that your risk is manageable. When you're wrong, get out and the most you can lose is what you risked to begin with. In the example above, the stop above the 4th box is insane. By then, you're up to your ears in losses and praying to God for a drop which may or may not come. With this kind of mentality, you really should be in Casino playing a roulette and doubling your bets every time you're wrong like many gamblers do.

@creativeadvance

If you think he is cost averaging to compensate for poor entry, then you weren’t listening. Spreading risk out is a type of intelligent diversification, and he is controlling his risk as well as anyone. He clearly explains all of this. If you understand the expectancy equation, then you understand why his 94% win rate gives him the cushion to float this type of drawdown. The occasional large loss is easily recouped by highly regular small wins

@markl431

​@@creativeadvance, what he's doing is the definition of cost averaging. To me, even if the initial entry was good, if the trend reversed, it makes zero sense to continue adding to a bad trade. You're basically left hoping for one reversal to bring you out of hot water that you wouldn't even be in if you exited a bad trade on time to begin with.

And his argument for martingaling also doesn't make sense as when he does actually lose it could be quite big relative to his wins. So he's willing to risk 12 to 1 win. LOL. I'd take real care before following this guy. You always should be wary of those who probably make most of their income by teaching. There's a reason for this. But hey, he may be genuine.

Hey Mike, I done this for 6 months and I can say it’s 100% legit. I switched to live after I knew it worked. I never really asked the question why he trades demo but I think because it’s linked to prop firm funded accounts. I also get your point about 12 to 1 ratio, but the stop loss is far away because the market generally rotates after 4 boxes (36 pips) so we give time for the market to move to our intended direction. The profit taking is in the 3 pips which when taken can be recycled time and time again (max 4 trades a box). When you get to the end of your trading day you should have loads of winning trades. You can increase your risk to reward if you want to and let runners run, but the aim is to take the 3 pips per trade and get out the market. When things go wrong you also have a time to break even due to how the market works. Anyway I hope you try it. All the best.
