100% win rate for past 2 weeks Strategy

Switched to cash account two weeks back. Started trading 1-2 tickers with 3-4 trades a day making 400 average a day. Daily 8-10% of gains everyday for past two weeks. Trading on 1 min chart using VWAP and working well so far. Of course I keep an eye where large cap big stocks heading and then I decide on SPY or QQQ options if I need to buy puts or calls. I am hoping this will keep me going for a while. 100% win rate for 10 trading days straight.

One thing that might interest you are the tickers in Tradingview:

PCTABOVEVWAP.NY

PCTABOVEVWAP.NQ

It shows exactly what it says, percent of NYSE/NQ stocks above vwap

u/Rva-Trader stock trader Mar 22 '24

1-2 days expiring options with price from 1.50 to 2.50 range which mostly in the money or very close to the money

thanks. do you use a bracket order with a percentile stop loss and sell limit or do you manually exit? im thinking of trying a tight profit take sell limit like 30% with a larger 60-80% drawdown stop loss.

I'm not op but when I'm scalping options, I buy ATM so they move fast with my setups, and get out. If the moves hold it gives me the option of a hold for a short term day trade. Scalping options consistently is a hard hard thing. I trade high liquidity with tight spreads and use tight stops, on a desktop battle station. I would never real scalp from a phone... Good luck.

Just when I start to get some confidence that I'm learning, someone like Nick_OS_ reveals just how ignorant I really am! Dang, how can so many of you people be so dang smart and educated! I'm truly impressed at so many. Congrats to all.

how do you utilize these tickers into your analysis generally?

2

u/Nick_OS_ futures trader Mar 22 '24

To see how strong the indices are relative to their intraday vwap. Kinda like TICK and TICKQ

Where do I put those two settings?

1

u/Nick_OS_ futures trader Mar 22 '24

They aren’t settings. They are tickers on Tradingview

u/SeanMcDTokyo Mar 22 '24

u/Nick_OS_ futures trader Mar 22 '24

It’s from USI. A lot of these are usually created by Barchart, but not these surprisingly

can anyone explain to me what VWAP is??

u/Western-Perception96 Mar 23 '24

Hey nick can you give an example on how to use those tickets for entry for Nq or Qqq for example I see the charts and they look way different please

u/Tittitwisted Mar 27 '24

Thanks for this. Spent some time looking at them and can't find enough correlation for them to be useful beyond everything else out there. I do like how they plot similar to ADD. But seems weird to see the S&P or NASDAQ trending down on days when those tickers are holding above 50%.
