Hey I'm Shaquan and I'm a fulltime stay at home mom/wife, forex trader, stock investor, and forex educator.

Thank you for a thoroughly explained video. From my experience in investing, having made more than 6 figures net profit over the past few of years, I'd say having an expert handle your financial investments is the best way to earn passively and can also go a long way in helping you gain confidence to trade yourself. Not everyone is built for the ups and downs themselves, especially when starting out newly.
You are entirely correct. For the majority of people getting started, trading CAN be frustrating. There's more than one good way to approach it.
I've just turned 23 and I'm new to investing, and I've lost a good sum trying out strategies I found in online tutorials. I would sincerely appreciate any recommendations you have.
@@non_conformist_ i agree with you, especially on that last part.
@@albert-sinclair.m Although I have a full grasp of just how and when to trade, I still leave the major pool of my investments in the hands Callum Garfield. I rely on his years of successful trading to keep me earning passively. I'm sure he can get you started as well. He does charge for his services, it'll help to have that in mind.
Well said!

How can you see how many pips are being hit often?? Thank you
What website can I use to calculate the stop lost to input the value of my stop lost from my chat
hi is this platform mt4 meta trader or deriv
Thank You.
You're welcome
thank you. Do you calculate this for nas100,us30 or crypto on mt4 ? I'm always confused with stop loss pips. So cannot just take the trade and decide stop loss later because we need to know the pips to calculate position size ? Also we are taking x% risk but we are risking only the stop loss right ?
Hi. I calculate all of my trades using this tool or my spreadsheet. You are risking x% of your balance and the stop loss calculates your lot size.
Great video.... Just have a question you could confirm so I'm understanding this right If I was to place no stop loss and using your example you could have made $2860?
Thank you very much Your angel came from me because of you I learned this method thank you Now I will be a millionaire. I'm Filipino but a great coach
You're very welcome
May you can help me more to learn more from you
Thanks 😊
You're welcome!
how to combine this with leverage tho?
Will it work with Stocks? Where I don't need to know the lot size? What if I wanted to buy one contract?
Hi! You can use the same tool, but stocks are contracts so you'd need to adjust the terminology and knowledge of how many contracts you'd like to buy or sell. It will still show you how much you'd be risking and profiting.
If I sold at 4.5767 and I want to risk 60 pips, what will my stop loss be?
Why the stop loss is above entry price and take profit is below it. Hows that work.
what is capital?
Sorry if I'm missing something. I think I understood everything you said, but my question is how do you calculate the position size?? If we want to risk 2% of the account, which is £20, but the stop loss is only 0.53% from the entry point, then surely I would need to be entering with a position size of 4x the account, for the 0.5% movement to equate to 2% of the account?
Hi. Don't overthink the percentage. Let's say your account balance is $1000. If you risk 2% you risk $20. No matter what your stop-loss is you cannot lose $20. Your lot size is determined by the stop loss and $20. So let's say your stop-loss is 20 pips. $20/20 pips= $1(0.10) lot size. It's only simple math. I pray this helps.
@@Shaquanlopez Thanks for your help. And whats the difference between the lot size and the position size though?
@@Shaquanlopez so the simple formula is the amount you are risking in currency divided by your stop loss in pips right?
What if I’m on a 1:500 leverage account vs a 1:100 leverage would anything change?
Yes! There is a difference of 1:400 leverage you've borrowed. Your buying power decreases.
if I adjust my stop loss, I still lose 20$?
So s.l and t.l is base on a set pip amount you have. For your trading plan . It's base more around piece action or the market structure. And then you calculate how much you should risk base of capital and pip amount to get your lot size.
And yes, my SL and Tp is based on price movement. Then I use a risk percentage to get my lot size.
@@Shaquanlopez awwwww man🌚 I been doing this wrong for months. I think this is why I been losing trades that actual go in my t.p but I get stop out way before it every happens thank you.
@@mellomations449 You're welcome. See, you now know how to correct it. Good trading from here on out are my payers for you.
@@Shaquanlopez yea I am struggling with some other small things but I think I can manage to change these things a well
how did you get 143 Take profit. great video but confused
me with your take profit, like the fok did you get that from thx for your service!
The take profit in pips was 143 pips
@@Shaquanlopez Is there a way to see that in pips, or where can I view that?
@@twanabroadway2275 yes the pips are on the tool
who calculates the pips? is the the tradingview app that do the calculation of your TP in pips or what?
SO HOW DOES THE ORDER ACTUALLY TRIGGER/ EXECUTE? THANKS.
Once price touches the rate you entered the broker will automatically trigger you into the trade.
How do I access that tool with the stop loss and take profit
It's under your 7th icon on the left hand side of trading view. They are called the long and short position tool.
@@Shaquanlopez thank you
Hi are you stillbl trading if so how. Is it going??
@NAOMIWILSON1 is her user name for help...
Whenever i put my SL/TP it doesnt open my position, can someone explain me what im doing wrong?
Are you executing a market order?
@@Shaquanlopez i found out later that for that type of tp/sl you need a broker which i dont have. The long short graph
how did you know important zones?
By backtesting my method.
Again... Do you have group where you provide signals? And how much do I need to have to join?
Hello. I do provide signals. I provide my teachings so you can make your own trading decisions with my guidance of course.

SO U DO PRIVATE TRAINING
Hello Javier. Yes I do private trainings. Is that you're preferred method of learning?
How to become your students ya...iam just know this trading and was lost all saving 2 weeks ago
Hi! To become a student of mine visit www.slfxtrading.com
What if my lot sizes in meta trader are 1 lot = 100k?
Yes, a standard = 100,000 units
Godd
But why in metatrader this is not working for example i will risk 30$
My stop loss is:2 pips
Lot size is:15
My loss cross than 30$ for example my loss 45$ why ??
Did you take into account the spread? When you trade larger lot sizes, you are charged a higher amount in the spread.
@@Shaquanlopez 30/2=15
15/30=0.5 lot size
This is correct?
I try it my loss only 30$ this work for me
Is this correct?
@@user-yh4mc6lo5f Here's the formula, you account size * your risk/ stop loss= lot size
Beverages of choice lol...
Don't disrespect the pizza parlor
lol
why are u confusing people the take profit when prices goes up but here why am i seeing but the opposite
It's not confusion when the focus was on past price movement going down. This was not an analysis video. I hope this clears your confusion.
I thought I was supposed to risk the same amount of pips every trade and gain the same amount of pips every trade. That's wrong
Hi. That is a strategy some use, but no you don't have to.
Great video. I make huge profits on my investment since i started trading with a professional broker Mrs Kathi Morgan, her trading strategy are top notch coupled with the little commission she charges on her trade. Thanks so much ma'am♥
Thank you for the level-headed financial advice. I started my investment with $8,500 in just a week of trading with her I’ve gotten profits of $19,750 in my portfolio. Thank you Ma'am
Wow! Pretty good please how can i reach this Mrs Kathi Morgan everybody is talking about? I want to invest i'm from Canada
Ever since i started trading with Mrs Kathi with the consistent weekly profits i'm getting there's no doubt she's the best. such a genius I have been withdrawing my profits thanks for your great work and God bless you more..from Slovenia
@@johnsonbenson5779 Thank you Sir, i just started my trade with her.
Surprise to see others who trade with Mrs Kathi Morgan, i am currently on my 7th trade with her and my portfolio has grown tremendously.
Hello please respond

I really need a help here because I keep blowing my account even though I fully understand technically analysis, candlesticks charts and patterns, but still I keep losing trades.
