This Asia Session Strategy Made Me $137,000 In 30 Days

Finance-focused summary (markets / investing strategy)

The speaker describes a trading approach focused on the Asia session (instead of the New York session) using Fibonacci levels combined with fair value gaps (FVGs) and other liquidity/structure confirmations. They claim the method produced strong results in August, including $137,000+ in 30 days, largely attributed to trading during Asian hours when price action is more reliable.

Key market context / why they switched sessions

• The speaker struggled during the New York session in early summer:

  “literally nothing was happening,” with weak momentum and few/no entry opportunities.

• They observed that other sessions were active and major events often occurred in the evening/night, making the New York open less favorable.

• They applied their system specifically to the Asian session and reported strong performance.
• They describe recurring “bad” New York days:
  • London activity influences price, but New York fails to progress (session highs/lows don’t update for long stretches).
  • Even when price eventually moves, there may be no usable entry due to structure/momentum problems.

Reported performance / key numbers

• Claim: “over $137,000 just from trading” in August (Asian session).
• Withdrawals shown as weekly activity early August (real account via AMP broker). Total listed withdrawals:
  • $124,600
• They also reference “over $130,000 per month” multiple times.

Risk/reward examples mentioned

• Initial example: started at 2:1, then moving stops reached 4.4:1.
• Asia example: explicitly notes 4.4 risk-reward.
• Later example: an “eight to one” trade, also citing “4 to one” or “3.8 to be exact.”
• Stop-loss / trade sizing notes:
  • Stop loss sometimes described around “$650”.
  • One example: “win just under $2,000” with a small stop (~$650).

Strategy / methodology (step-by-step framework)

Core idea

1. Mark a trading range using a Fibonacci tool.
2. Enter trades at specific Fibonacci levels—primarily the OTE level—using limit orders.
3. Place stops relative to nearby key levels (notably around 709 in examples).
4. Guide take profit using FVGs, liquidity targets, and session extremes.

Session + setup selection

• Wait for the Asian session to open at 8:00 (as stated).
• Watch whether Asian hours begin with manipulation (e.g., “bullish mood” then downward manipulation, or vice versa).
• Decide direction based on the overall market narrative and likely liquidity/structure locations.

Fibonacci + key levels

• OTE entry level referenced as 0.705 (relative to the marked range).
• A highlighted level “79” appears in the framework (often used for stop placement/risk control).
• Mentions also include chart levels 709 and 715 (treated as specific price levels within the chart examples).
• Directional marking:
  • Sell trades: mark Fibonacci from high to low
  • Buy trades: mark Fibonacci from low to high

Entry method

• Enter primarily using limit orders at/near the OTE level.

Stop-loss placement

• Stops are often described as placed above/below the 709 level (or the “79 level,” depending on the example labeling), with a small buffer.
• The stated rationale: stops are placed where they believe the trade is protected by structure + FVG.

Confirmation / “stacking” rules

The speaker emphasizes that OTE alone is weaker. Stronger setups come from combining OTE with:

• 15-minute FVGs (referred to as a “wonderful 15-minute fair value gap”)
• Liquidity pullback
• Session high/low
• Additional confluence types such as order blocks / rejection blocks

Take-profit logic + trade management

• Take profit is often set at an unfilled FVG target or near session extremes / liquidity pools (including references like New York lows).
• Profit-taking guidance:
  • Avoid targeting wicks when possible (claim: clusters at wicks can cause price to bounce back).
  • Actively manage positions:
    • Move stops after partial progress.
    • Sometimes move to break even, though they say they’re not a big fan of breakeven at key levels, preferring stronger trailing/risk control.
    • For “runners”:
      • close part at liquidity (e.g., session lows),
      • leave remaining contracts for the next target.

Explicit recommendations / cautions (as stated)

• Risk management: “risk-reward game,” don’t be greedy, and actively manage positions.
• Stop placement discipline: stops must align correctly relative to the OTE / 709 (or 79) framework, with nearby structure/FVG used to justify risk.
• Avoid wrong directional bets: don’t take counter-trend bullish entries when the market narrative is strongly bearish.
• If price reacts incorrectly: if price goes past the stop-confirmation area and lingers, it may indicate the direction is wrong.
• Avoid “gambling” in chaotic zones: if the chart becomes volatile/chaotic with spikes below a level, they tighten stops and avoid holding into uncertain liquidity.
