Good Lord!!! This Man just gave me a career!!! Thank you so much for this content ❤❤❤❤
That's awesome!
I have lots of respect for Jean but his strategy forces you to risk a huge portion of your account similar to Apiary fund and trade the fund.
Love it sir❤❤❤ saya rasa kita memiliki frekuensi yang sama tentang scalping. Kerja yang sangat luar biasa. Salam from Indonesian
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!
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.
But the very few times you do lose (because losses are inevitable), won't you lose a detrimental amount, like days to weeks worth of profits?
Fr man. This is next level shit
Today was the first time I was able to understand and make money on the way and on the pull back learning the support and resistance is HUGE
hey I just want you to know, Jesus is real and He loves you and died for you. 🤍
Thanks so much for the info, you are looking so well!
The cash register analogy... Awesome! Merci Beaucoup!
Glad you liked it!
A very interesting approach, many thanks!
Glad you liked it!
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
It is kind of a grid
sport rather
Great interview - this guy's style is fascinating
JFB’s legendary strategy right here. Amazing.
Gotta agree! Thanks for watching!
I want this guy to read me bedtime stories 😂
Thanks for another interview with him Etienne! Jean's awesome!
As for drawing boxes, personally I edit my own Fib Retracement tool, that way the whole chart is mapped out quickly 👌
Priceless 😮
I like this guy, thx for the upload.
Glad to see Jean-François is doing well and back on your show, loved his last one with you!
More to come! Glad you liked it!
This is good one for even experienced traders like myself❤❤❤
I would love an in depth look at he he would create a box for MNQ! Please have him back on and go thru that process more. Grateful you both
Thank you guys I'm trading to break away from being poor. This info is life saving
Great interview! I enjoyed the detailed breakdown of the strategy
I’m glad that was useful!
It seems like a solid way to generate extra income, but I wonder how it would affect one's portfolio in the long run.
👍 I love watching this guy. 😅 I always wonder why he never uses moving averages to determine trend direction. Then scalp the prevailing trend. One less thing to calculate.
He build his own grid system with his own logic :). Nice
Similar thoughts here.
Why is it on a Demo account?
Appreciate you big dawg 😎
This is the best way to trade!!!!!.standard deviation.,.
hes a real character
Totally!
Welcome back
This is exactly what I needed to hear. I go into panic mode when I go into drawdown and these RUclipsers 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
Be careful about this, but you can always experiment :-)
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'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.
Sir this strategy is good, with this are there any possible ways of 90% predicting buy or sell bar, I'm just assuming so
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?
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..
What is the word. "martingale" and deep pockets.
Jean is a legend...i have been trying to learn dan adapt with his box method...and truly it works...his method really works but i used his method along with my style and it works...how can i contact Jean to learn more?
You can get in touch with John through his website in the description.
How did he create the box that size?
How does a lossing (spreaded 4%) looks like?
So those boxes are pretty much ATRs?
I see a sellside liquidity grab, then a market structure shift and its going to buyside. You can have your box sir
Is this the Euro future? What is the instrument and time frame?
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.
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
You missed the part where he said he entered the trade multiple times over and over again while already in drawdown. Which is something that you should only do if you are 100% certain with your system and your overall risk
@@chinbosschinboss2484 Thanks for the reply. Yeah, i was referencing the points u made & thanks for clarifying. Pretty crazy system but seems to be working for him. 3 PIPS target is crazy tho lol must have been alot of pain in figuring that system out
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!
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?
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
@@NeonNeuron got you, thanks
lost you at 13.40 when you said avg it . good luck to everyone who wants to follow
How much leverage does he use?
I traded similarly to this man 😂😂😂 I thought. I am an alien who does not follow trading norms 😂. 😂.
I wish we knew what was his account at. We can't even see it and the camera moves to see what he won.
11:40 the Bollinger band demon entered you.
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?
"3" pip target, means he's not willing to take losses... .... allowing "36" pip drawdown..🤨
daytrading the euro is like watching paint dry
He trades like the banks do…I think this is the best way to
Why he doesn't use fractals at round numbers? It would be easier. I think the secret here is his hedge logic. It is magic ;-)
easy to trade on demo mode
So, you're using boxes instead of fib levels? Ok, whatever works 💪
How does he draw that box ?
There is a button in the charting software that lets him drag from one corner of a rectangle to another.
@@ScottHz Im sorry, let me rephrase my question what's the logic behind that box ?
He explained it in a previous interview, from memory he finds the smallest 1/2 hour overnight range and uses that as a single box.
@@Blu376 thanks bro 🤝
The longest range in the Asia session is about the size of the box. For EURUSD, that's roughly a box at 9 pips.
Isn’t better to just use measured moves?
it makes sense when the market is rotational and we know the market is 80% of the time rotational but every once in a while when it's trending, this strategy will be catastrophic. Don't know any successful trader trading like this, risking 10points to get 1 pont.
But he told you he is only risking up to 4% at max exposure. Discipline to stop once your max daily loss is hit is key. 4 out of 5 winning days at your logic.
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.
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.
How to try this in crypto?
It's a risk asset as I see it, I only scalp indicies, but in my case I look for buy ops only
RICH GET RICHER
martingale pro
his strategy basically is mean reversion just defined with boxes lol.
Why does his screen say demo
Probably doesn't want to show his actual account size. Nothing wrong with that IMO.
Ict old version 😂
Broge maybe the next big thing

I can't understand Etienne At All and I speak English.
Salam, saya juga pakai rsi sudah 2 Minggu, Alhamdulillah winrate nya tinggi. Profit -+150% , setingan periode (3)apply close, market gold,
This is unprofitable strategy 😂 it’s profitable only for him pure risk high risk and reward is small
Oh dear, not the brightest of sparks are you? 😂
Makes no sense at all. Curious to see the equity curve….
That's not scalping bro
What is it?
@@hareriti2463it's scalping.
Etienne, my friend, please speak slower 🙏
Ça serait bien qu'il parle en français une bonne fois
Jesus, some of his logic is truly terrible. Like that of addicted gambler. Not of any sort of analyst. It's gibberish. 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. But if he is, his logic is still flawed and mostly gibberish....And why is this on a demo account lol ?
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.
Hahaha ah the beauty of trading. So many styles, so many techniques 😉
scalping forces you to use small size, so small wins , thats why this guy looks poor
this guy has the worst risk to win ratio I ever seen...36 pips SL and 3 pips profit....crazy. Why not put the SL outside the box, makes no sence at all to put a SL 12x profit
But that means he’s got a very high win rate too.
All of this is fluff
hey, i currently live in sydney and im planning to trade fulltime while move to jakarta with my family, where can we chat?
Very similar to how this guy Nick Shawn trades hmmm. You should invite him to your channel @Etienne Crete
"what could happen next is undetermined " 😂😂😂 but he can explain very well on the charts that he can see 😂
$700 peofit in 2 weeks? Hope this is a hobby.
