I am a mother of two little kids. I saw many interviews with you. I used to scalp the intraday. But I can’t anymore. I make more mistakes.
I switched to swing since a few months.
Fun fact I started with swings and switched to scalping. And now back to swing. Thanks for explain this topic. For being different.
I pinned your comment because it shows the reality of trading! People have jobs, families, social obligations etc. For 99% of all traders scalping is NOT practical. It’s a myth social media created. It’s disgusting to me. Thanks for being real and authentic 💙🤝
Was the first sentence necessary?
i believe that she said that to emphasise lack of time for proper scalping…
@@masterofgames1239 yes exactly the other commenters just lack emotional and social intelligence.
@@JoshuaSoko it demonstrates her lack of time and her other life distractions and obligations…..
A swing trader for slightly more than a decade. Recently when I got unemployed, I went back to day trading. My P/L became neutral and it was tiring. So yeah, back to swing trading it is. Less tiring, less trades and more RR. Cheers to all swingers! 🥂
Thanks for sharing your authentic experience! Your insights are valuable for anyone navigating the trading world. That's the REAL LIFE ladies and gentlemen. Listen to the real people out there please!
As a scalper using ict concepts i really enjoy your videos😂. His concepts work for me but anyone can have his own opinion. I would like to point out that scalping doesnt mean high frequency trading. I only scalp 1h per day ( only on high probability days) and 2 trades max.. keep up the good work
Haha love your comment! You have a lot of respect from me 💙🤝 btw. I am only saying the founder is a scam not the concepts, cause the concepts are just rebranded strategies from the past! I wish you only success on your trading journey!
How can ICT a Scammer when he gives all Information out for free on CZcams? 🤔
@@berndskorupinski Correct! Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, in ICT is previous price action strategies just repackaged and given a new name so folks feel more sophisticated. Nothing wrong with that, but it is what it is.
he is faking trading statements!@@manuelrimetz8043
@@berndskorupinskiand he claimed to be more skilled than he results portrayed, live.
This is pure Gold Bernd, Thank you. Swing trading removes a whole load of emotional burden tied to trading, and helps overall trading approach. I scalp and I know the amount of confusion and screentime involved in watching each trade. Thank you Bernd, I'm subscribed for weeks now mainly because of this concept, I know there is still more to learn from you.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for being a part of the channel for weeks now. Your support means a lot!
Calling out ICT. Damn, that takes courage!
Love the videos and content. Thanks!!
It’s a must! People who fake statements and teach trading must be called out!
@@berndskorupinskii really love that!
True scam, ICT fanboys, LOL
This ICT guy doesnt cant even post his real profit, all he does is shit talk, LOL
ICT literally just rebrands widely used terms into some weird esoteric concept to try and seem like he knows things nobody else does.
He's been called out before. Not sure why people follow him
I really appreciate your way of explain how industry works on the interview. I really want to see more videos about fundamentals, cause I think it’s very important and so rare to see videos about this on CZcams. Thanks so much for being so helpful.
More to come! And I will soon do again challenge documentaries where I go through the entire market explaining my logic.
Hey Bernd,
Your videos are of such great quality. I don't mean just the content, which is gold, but the quality of the videos themselves. It won't take long until you 10X your subscriber base.
Love your approach of Fundamentals + Technicals executed on the daily time frame.
We are all after freedom, not a job with more stress and watching charts all day, every day.
Keep up the great work, my fellow German :)
Your encouragement means a lot to me. I'm glad you enjoy the content and the quality of the videos. Gruesse aus Dubai :)
Es ist verrückt, wie sehr die Psyche beim Scalpen ausbrennt! Tut gut zu hören, dass sehr erfolgreiche Trader, die selben Erfahrungen teilen, die man selbst gemacht hat. Grüße aus Berlin!
Hey, thanks for the shoutout from Berlin! Trading can be tough, but we're all in it together. Freue mich jedes Mal wenn ich positive Nachrichten aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum bekomme. Es ist Wahnsinn wie weit meine Reichweite mittlerweile reicht! Liebe Gruesse aus Dubai.
Learning greatly from you . Anticipating for this amazing insight
Actually it’s an important video to be honest. It will not disappoint.
This man🤝 God bless you. Your videos helped me to refine my system. I don't go below H1 timeframe. I have 1 loss since the start of February. I trade 3 pairs and Gold. I have 1-3 trades in a week.
God bless you! Thank you for your comment! Wish you all the success in the world!
@@berndskorupinski Thank you Sir.
What are your three pairs? @@kariukik
Hey Bernd,
I have blown many prop challenge trading accounts over the years trying to scalp forex. Scalping is not sustainable for me with a family and a full time job. I came across your content recently and I have now changed to swing trading forex CFDs with my fundamental analysis on the currency futures. Even though we don’t trade the exactly the same, albeit similar, I truly think your content is going to be the breakthrough I needed to understand I don’t need to be trading forex intraday.
Keep up the great content and everything you’re doing for promoting transparency in the prop industry.
See you at the top.
All the best,
Cam
Your words mean a lot, Cam. I appreciate your support and I'm thrilled to hear that my content has made a positive impact on your trading journey.
Can't believe he called out Iman. Wonder if he knows that Iman made his own scalping strategy on the 30 second chart 😅
Iman doesn’t claim that he is consistent 😉
@@berndskorupinski meant no disrepect brother. Love your work. 👍
@@berndskorupinski You are absolutely correct
They should have an interview!
Thanks Men🙏 , what u r explaining will help by far when u r comparing to scalp
Glad it was helpful!
Thankyou for all the abundance of knowledge snd information ❤
Thank you for your kind words! It means a lot to know that the content is appreciated.
great video, as always Bernd, see you at your trading Campus
See you there 🤝💙
Thank you 🙏🏿 so much for your support and help ❤
No problem 😊
In day trading it is easy to blow accounts, so i decided to stick with swing trading, i hope in a year i can have a good sum of money
I fully fully agree with you. However we have to differentiate between scalping / day trading / swing trading. I specifically talk about 1-5min scalping.
Day trading is not scalping
There are some pairs that good for swing, and some are good for day trading, you just have to study.
Bernds Focus and intensity is truly inspirational.
Thank you 🙏🔥
Couldn’t of said it better at this stage i listen to know one else but this legend
Thank you for that statement! Love it!
I love the honesty, scalping = anxiety, depression, self-harm. I wish I started my trading career as a swing trader
It's so important to find a trading style that suits your mental well-being!
Bernd, there are so many people out there that advocate scalping. The problem is we have people out there "helping" people to become traders, trying to teach people to trade in the mess. And that's wrong, you are a true inspiration. Thank you
Finally someone with face whos calling out ICT. damn!! Nice one!!
It has to be done! But I am not the first!
I agree with you 💯 , the past 3 weeks all i do is to find the daily timeframe trend the lock for the daily swing and wait the market to get to the zone
Great! Just continue doing what you are doing 🤝
Love this 🎉 I use the daily for analysis and the H1 for entry . Love the swing trading ❤
Great to hear! Perfect if this works for you!
Same here 🤜🏽🤛🏽
I should have listen to you since the beginning... Scalping is stressful, and more screen time. All words you mention here are 100% accurate. Lost a lot on scalping, but I learned a lot. So now it is time to be Swing Trader. Thank you Bernd! ❤
Thank you for sharing your journey and being open to trying a new approach. Best of luck with swing trading!
I love you men, I really do, please keep up doing this cause it really help people and drag them out side the darkness
I won’t stop ever! I can’t listen to all the BS in the social media space! So much misinformation being spread!
@@berndskorupinski that awesome 💯
Thank you. 👍🏻 I’m also here because I found much greater success with swing trading even without using any fundamental analysis. If you combine fundamentals with swing trading, you are unstoppable… 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for confirming my statements in the video! Happy swing trading 🤝💙
You dont need fundementals on currencies ( as retail trader ) to be consistently profitable… On stocks its much easier so there its ok to use both
@@Red_Dead_Entertainment You can definitely increase your win rate and overall profitability if you use fundamentals combined with your existing technical strategy. You need to trade against the retail sentiment and preferably with a strong opposite trend for institutional money. You also need to do some type of seasonality forecast and correlation of underlying assets. Also interest rates etc. The more things align the higher your win rate and overall profitability is from my experience.
To your point, I am aware of a strategy that is solely based on technical analysis and simple indicators like the ADR and it does work quite well but with lower win rates and overall profitability. So back to my point, even if you like to take higher risks with position stacking or hedging, you simply cannot have as big an edge in the markets without using fundamentals and that includes the forex market.

New lesson to learn about forex industry Thank you for high quality content 🙏🙏🙏
Always happy to share my insights 🤝💙
Thank you for the video. So real and nature
You are welcome! Always being authentic!
Am a swing strategy learning student, but looking for scalping strategy for making higher reward, thanks for clearung my doubts and myths , now i will focus in my swing trading , thanks for the information ❤️
Most welcome! I am happy that I could clarify a few things for you!
If you dont have an edge Than no matter what kind of trader you are since you can blow Swing just slower Than Scalp trading.
In my opinion if you have a right edge and emotion control than scalping is the best way to grow smaller accounts which are under amount of xxmillion $
and for learning curve also scalping is better way to practice
But appreciate your style Bernd since you are proven successful trader I really enjoy to watch your contents.Hope you the best forward 💫
Mathematically you're extremely unlikely to scalp your way to millions of dollars. Its much harder to have an edge scalping forex because of the spreads and more trades does not equal more money.
I totally agree, scalping for me is just more time efficient, I prefere to know faster when I am right or wrong.
@@forexenjoyer-sc1tn He is emotionally attached to scalping, but what you said is 100% correct
I explained it correctly. Scaling up is impossible with scalping. Smaller accounts you might be right. But not into millions! Thanks for your comment! Valuable comments are always highly appreciated 🔥🤝
Thanks Bernd !
@@berndskorupinski
Thank you sir.... really appreciate the gems you thrown in this videos..i am also a swing trader now..what you said in the video is 100 percent correct..thank youp
Thank you for acknowledging the facts! Happy swing trading my friend
As a new trader im very happy to find channel like you Bernd. I wish you always the best 👌
Welcome aboard!
@berndskorupinski First of all thanks for your answer. I appreciate it. Smc is on low TF as well and as I imagine is also scalping. You think it's the same Bernd? BTW are you German? 🥰🥰
You are absolutely right I made a lot of losses on scalping but when I decide to switch to swing trading I see results $
It's great to hear that you found success with swing trading after struggling with scalping!
Really nice video ! Thanks Bernd
Glad you enjoyed it
Your Videos have truly elevated how i view Trading and how I now chose to Trade....SWING ALL THE WAY🎉
I'm glad to hear that my videos have had a positive impact on your trading perspective!
I used to do intraday not necessarily scalping but me and my dad trade and I am the person who is patient and likes to hold trade for longer even if I take some heat. When you are swing trading (which I am now) you start getting used to being negative for a while just respecting the companies rules and of course the strategy. sometimes I over leverage and It can go against me or I enter too early for the winning trade. Anyways I finally passed an 100k ftmo challenge and about to get paid out next week. I dont even have to place another trade.
Thank you for making this videos and repeating in my face that I did the right choice!
That's awesome news! You crushed the challenge and now it's time to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Keep up the fantastic work!
Hello Bernd, Great video as usual. Quick question.
For someone who doesn't have all the tools you guys have in your trading platform and is a swing trader. What should i focus on other than Fundamentals, Market sentiment, technicals (including supply and demand), COT reports, Intermarket analysis, Seasonality?
Supply and Demand >4h, COT, Seasonality.
Definitely agree with your message here. Just for the people, who really studied ICT, knows that he always said that everybody has to find the trading style that fits to them personally as to position, swing, intraday trading etc. and that most people will have it easier in the beginning sticking to the daily and 4h charts.
“He” is a liar and fraud, who faked trading statements. That says all…🤷🏼♂️
greatly inspired by your fundamental approach to choosing which pair you will trade on your "Titans of Tomorrow" interview with Waqar asim.
was just wondering what websites, news articles you use in particular and what type of news to look out for would be greatly appreciated thank you.
you are the goat.
I created my own fundamental tools. I don't use any websites etc. for that purpose.
To be honest, started learning ICT and it just wasn’t adding up, dropped everything and decided to find a different path. Glad I found your channel. Keep up the great works. Some suggestions for content;
- Playlist of your entry and exit strategy
-What to look out for when choosing a prop firm
-How to start trading as a business
ICT? More like "I Can't Trade"! But hey, at least you found your way to us!
Scalping is nothing but total frustration. Thanks for the video. 👍
Tell me about it ;)
Hey Bernd, nice video, I made a similar video to this a year ago but nowhere near this quality but what I found is that people won't listen to this advice and they will still go back to where the action is foolishly. It is also one of my least viewed videos. However I truly believe it is the only way to make consistent profits, HTF trading with small positions is key. But let them live and learn.
Great, thanks for your comment! I know people will not listen…at least most of it…in trading people only listen when they feel the pain…losing money…many of them will fail miserably before they learn. And it’s ok, the choice is theirs. I am just a vocal trader that has a strong opinion of things backed by MY RESULTS.
@@berndskorupinski yes, you are truly showing the fruits of your labour. The market is like Pac-Man on the lower time frames, with the all the whipsawing eating stops and fuelling the urge to overtrade, a very dangerous place to be. It’s better to trade almost like an investor so to speak and only look at opportunities where the market is certain to turn in your direction, however still using calculated position sizing. Lastly, what I will say is, people want to strategise only in the technicals and think the answers is laying there, they would never think of being more strategic with their leverage and position sizing, investors do this well.
words of wisdom.... absolutely true to the point ...I love it ...
Awesome to hear you loved it! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
LOVE FROM INDIA BRO! You are an amazing guy showing reality to Traders while others are busy in selling courses! Lots of love ! Wish to be your student 🥺
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you appreciate the content.
I really love the honesty and I am your fan Bernd. But for me it was different I swing trade and I found my edge and consistency in scalping . I am scalping futures but I think that Everybody is different and for some people and some personalities scalping is good choice. I´can agree for 100% that swing trading is better option for most people.Thank you for your content.
Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your experience with me. It's always interesting to hear how different traders find their edge.
Thank u sir another excellent content! 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
Made 50p today from just this advice alone (0.08 pip) on mini fx account eur/usd. 1-5 min charts fried my brain. ( 2 weeks into trading career) thank b man.. subscribed.
Also made 1£ and 50p the previous days before ( single dad/unemployed) much love from the grim depths of London.
Thank you for sharing your success story! I'm thrilled that my advice helped you make some profit.
sir i want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, many reasons to thank you, first i learnt that professional have scalp , intraday trading is only for successful trader,6-9 trade a day is for profitable trader, everything is gone contrast, i am really thankful to you sir,
Thank you for your positive comment. Very important: don’t fall for all the scalping nonsense on CZcams!
Switching from scalping to swing trading was the best decision I ever made. Way less stressful
That's amazing! Less stress and more success, sounds like a win-win. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for sharing your useful experiences. Just one question, how many currency pairs does a swing trader usually trade on?
I trade everything. Depends on you...
Amazing content my dear friend! Daily chart is pure Gold 😎
Couldn't agree more!
bro is a G, i would like to see your exact concepts about trading like a chart study and live trade
Thank you, but most of it I do only for our community. Please watch my challenge documentaries if you want to understand my strategy.
From my 7 years experience, that's really true , swing is the key to success and scalping is like drugs just gonna destroy your mental and physical health
It's great to hear from someone with 7 years of experience confirming the importance of swing trading over scalping!
@@berndskorupinski with swing more freedom more time to family and less stress, but new traders will not realise that now until they lose money
Today is my first day to your CZcams channel, but i love your video❤❤❤
It’s about time 😅 welcome to the club 😎💪
Thanks
Cooles Video Bernd. Und wie immer sehr informativ. Ich folge Imantrading denn der typ nimmt sich die Zeit um andere zu exposen. Als ich das sah dachte ich nur wie krass. Ich habe vieles ausprobiert Option Trading, Bitcoin und und und. Bin mehrmals auf die Fresse geflogen😂 aber nur so lernt man. Momentan bin ich Futures in Wochen, täglich, 4Stunden am traden und in 15 min führe ich meine trades aus, bin aber momentan nur noch am üben üben üben. Bis ich weiß dass ich profitable bin. Dein Kanal hat viel mehr verdient als dieser Haufen betrüger. Respekt an dich und besten Dank für deine Zeit Bruder. Schönes Wochenende und viele Grüße aus der Schweiz.
Danke für deine Unterstützung! Es freut mich, dass du meinen Kanal verfolgst. Viel Erfolg beim Üben und Trading! Lass mich wissen, wenn Du Fragen hast, kannst Dich jederzeit an mich wenden. Und es würde mich interessieren, ob Du Erfolge mit deiner Strategie erzielst. Auf jeden Fall, wünsche ich Dir nur das Beste!
@@berndskorupinski Besten Dank für deine schnelle Antwort. Ich werde mich an dich wenden sobald ich fragen habe, danke. Ja werde dich sofort kontaktieren ob die Strategien die ich am testen bin wirklich funktionieren oder nicht. Danke nochmals, beste Grüße
Exactly. I struggled with patience for years, but Swings are so much better.
Thank you for sharing your experience. It's great to hear that swings have brought you comfort.
Danke Bernd ! Wie lange würdest du sagen, hat es für dich gedauert mit Swings im Durchschnitt gefunded zu werden? Deine 2% Risiko pro Trade scheinen eine gute Strategie zu sein. @@berndskorupinski
ou're one of the most legitimate and honest traders I've seen in the industry. I wish you continued success! I one question please, noticed in your Funded Next and VST challenges that most of your positions are long. Is there a specific reason for this bias?
Thank you so much for your kind words and support! During that period of time the market cycles supported long positions...Hence I was long. No other particular reason.
So good advice!!!
Glad you think so!
Finally, someone speaking the truth about swing trading and the absurdity of the ICT cult 😂 Great video bro.
Glad to be the voice of reason in the midst of the ICT chaos. It's like the wild west out there!
Have blown so many accounts scalping but actually made money when i was swinging and looked back at my week and had my first blue week!
Thank you for being REAL and sharing real life trading experience and show case what scalping does to most traders accounts.
I will be your Best Student Boss! in shaa llah 🚀🚀🚀☝🏼🤲🏼
Hehe Walid, that’s a nice ambitious goal 🤝🔥
No you won't... I will
This is such weird timing. I’ve stopped scalping and it wasn’t an intentional decision! I just wake up and my mom rushes me to get ready for work so I don’t have time to sit the entire New York session looking at these charts. I’ve been taking my entries on higher time frames and I’m realizing all I have to do is just check up on my trade throughout the day and boom! My strategy works the same on the bigger timeframes! Thank you for validating my decision to switch things up
Keep up the HTF. Way more relaxed that way!
Our favourite certified trader is here to disrupt the industry to call it for what it is to what it must be!!! Love the video Bernd #GreetsfromSouthAfrica
Your kind words mean a lot to me. Thanks for watching and showing love!
Switching to Swing / Intra-day trading had the most notible impact on my trading, and I can see exactly when I made that change in my data.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It's great to hear how a shift in trading approach can make such a significant difference.
Followed you sir. Being a top trader of the5%ers is not a joke. And I know your contents will be legit. Thanks. And continue helping us beginners.
I appreciate that! But I have nothing to do with 5%ers...I am the top FTMO trader ;)
@@berndskorupinski oh I'm sorry. Haha. Still though. Not an easy thing to do.
Hi Bernd, What would you say to a 10 min scalping strategy could work where it is not as erratic as the 1-2 min timeframe and a little more stable?
Scalping 1-5min
This too great bro 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much 😀
shout out to Iman trading, Great video Bernd!!!
Yes I really enjoyed the video where he exposed ICT
Thanks for these amazing inspirational contents.
Do you hold your position overnight when you trade stocks like AAPL ? Are the spreads and volume good enough for entry in 1 minute?
I hold my positions even for weeks!
Very interesting Bernd. I love your content.
Even though you hate scalping, I had a question. Is it possible to execute large trades (100k-250k-500k) per trade with small SLs (10-20 pips), the same way one would with risking $100?
or is it not possible to execute such large orders on LTFs...
Many thanks,
Keep up the amazing content and trading!
🙏🙏🙏
it depends, with futures it might be possible, with forex depending on brokers, with prop firms this is not possible.
Hi sir i have some questions
1)today trending ict ya order flow trading they are actually working and not
2)order flow using institutional trader ya same simple price action are working institutional trader
3) retail trader stop loss show institutional trader computer
Use supply and demand >4h charts
Prop Firm trader here. One thing about swing trading is that you must embrace being comfortable with being uncomfortable, as you sit through drawdown. Thank you for helping me align myself with something that matches my personality , I believed the hype of scalping until you enlightened me. Now my results are much more consistent.
But you have to have your SL in place anyway. It is the same concept as with any trading style...Thanks for sharing your experience. Happy you changed your believe system and I created better results for you!
Excellent advice
Glad it was helpful!
I trade more than 200 times last 5 month just for my acc to be breached. After watching this video, I figured out that I'm doing all the "Don'ts". I back tested immediately then noticed that I could be more profitable in swing 1:1rr than scalping 1:4rr. Thank you sir, this video needs more views specially the beginners like me. 💯
It's great to hear that the video helped you analyze your trading strategy and make a positive change!
Hi use 9 ema and 15 ema only try this in volatility markey -
When price is in doentrend let price touch the uper ema then take sell
And do opposite for buy make sure they make 30 ' angle. Ema. -
Try backtesting if it will work apply been using for liquidity market❤
Whatever works works…all the best for you!
As an old scalper who blew up many many accounts am 100% agree with you
Thank you for being real and sharing your experience with me!
in your campus, there is a indicator which you use to predict the moves (smart money index). That indicator is totally developed by you? or its available elsewhere and you use it as a extra resource?
Everything I use is developed by ME. It is all proprietary.
hey Bernd, ur absolutely right about swing over scalping, but I do believe you need to start out and get chopped out in the lower timeframes to learn how to execute and solidify ur psychology, and when it comes to ICT, I have seen the video by Iman but I completely stand by his concepts and I use his concepts solely to swing trade and achieve massive Rs by taking maximum 4 trades a month!
Thank you for your valuable comment! In my world though I would never listen to someone who fakes trading statements.
Are there any other youtubers you like? 😅 keep it up Bernd, you are a breath of fresh air! 🙂
Not soooo many 😉🤝
Super Video, wie Al Brooks schon selber sagte, Scalping is a hobby
haha da hatte er wohl recht!
Hello bernd. My question is if im doing swing trading would i be waiting for a long time for the market to get to my supply/demand or poi? Or would you just enter with a larger stop loss?
Yes you wait of course for your zones to hit.
This is so true and works for me. By swing trading I can easily profitable by 1:4 RR
Thank you for sharing your success with swing trading! It's great to hear that it's working out well for you.
IN BERND we believe, thank you for stepping up and changing this industry for good it about that time
Thanks a lot for the shoutout and being part of the movement!
I’m a father and just swing trading is best for me I still have job so I work 60 hours a week to sustain my wife & 2 boys. Hoping to make trading my full time job so don’t have to live at work forever
You’re the only legend I listen too now. Thank you 🤝
I use to scalp myself & I use to try to make it work with my schedule and it was impossible used to feel so stressed because it felt like trading success would never happen to me. You gave me direction & hope 🙏🏼
One of my favorite comments! If I haven't pinned a comment yet, I would pin yours!

What do you think about Scaping with entry on M1 and profit on D or W timeframe?
I mean, with M1 timeframe i have big position size when closely stoploss but still have risk:reward usually 20 or higher
I think: Results speak louder than words! If you are consistent AND profitable. Keep doing what you are doing!
Great one I just moved since 2 month ago scalper to swing thanks why didn't make before 2 months ❤❤❤
Better late than never, right? At least you've made the switch now!
@@berndskorupinski thank you so much ❤️❤️
Ich habe auch etwas Probleme mit dem 5min Chart und werde immer oft getrickst in eine Richtung, nur damit ich ausgestoppt werde in die andere. Wenn ich beispielsweise vom Tageschart anfange, dann 4H dann 1H und auf dem 15min meinen Einstieg finde, ist das ja in Ordnung ? Bin jetzt schon seit 4 Jahren am Trading habe aber das Problem was du meintest mit, mal läuft es echt super und dann auf einmal hast du eine 5er oder 6er Losing Streak was ich einfach nicht verstehe. Gutes Video und ja ICT maximaler scam.
Wuerde weekly daily 4h chart nehmen als multiple time frame analysis base. Lass den 15min Quatsch... ;)
The ftmo goat himself thanks for all the advice
Boom! Thank you for your comment!
Hi Bernd, im curious if you read trading candlestick bible as some of your comments during live trading I notice you are looking for same things as I do, thanks and keep doing valuable content
I ve never touched a trading book in my life. Thank you for your comment!

Great video. There's no point replacing your 9-5 with another one.
100% 🤝
Do you have any opinion on Tom Hougaard. He scalps using big size! Would love to hear your thoughts. Love the channel and content. Cheers!
he worked in hedge fund and he know his edge how to play it but interesting to hear Bernd opinion
Tom lost so far this year with daytrading. He made only money on his Swing trading channel!
@@user-mu8px2ru7h the market is really though for me last 2 months and when i look back last 5 months from last year was very very well, so i guess it might be because of the low volatility for me
No opinion at all to be honest. I don't follow any trader myself.
@@berndskorupinski fair enough. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Really appreciate it. Thanks for the great content also
Mr.bernd what is your watch list I mean what's your favorite swing trading pairs.
I trade everything. All markets in this world. Even agricultural markets.
Great video as always Bernd. I feel totally identified, I am in the process between work and trading. I learned in a face-to-face ICT course and the teaching was more focused on Scalping, which makes working and trading very difficult. So as a beginner I didn't know any other way to do it but I always thought, not having so much knowledge and experience, some way to do trading and keep up the work for the moment, so since I watch your videos I try to focus on your way of trading, the "Set, Forget and Get a Life"(T-Shirt idea xD) is what I'm aiming for. Greetings and looking forward to the Supply/Demand videos!!!
Glad you like the "Set, Forget and Get a Life" approach, maybe we should start a T-shirt line for traders! 😄
Bernd if you are swinging on all your executed trades, how often do you break even? I assume you get a lot of BEs?
Yea BE happen. I would need to check how often but yes they happen.
I tried both scalping and intraday/swing trading; i found that swing trading is less stressful and more profitable on the long term, can't wait for the ICT segment tho haha
Did you enjoy the segment lol 😅
@@berndskorupinski A banger as expected, keep these videos coming 🔥
Kudos for calling ICT out. The cult he created is just too much.
Fully agree. Why would anyone listen to someone who fakes statements.
Swing Trading el mejor método, con defensiva ( Gestion de Riesgo ) y ofensiva ( Paciencia ), te vuelves consistentemente Rentable! Saludos Bernd 💎.
Thank you for your insightful comment! Consistency and risk management are indeed crucial in swing trading.
Hello, I would like to ask if it is necessary, to backtest all the instruments I want to trade. You said the market is same from the beginning. I know the price action is different on different instruments. But when I use 4H,DAILY, 1H, sometimes 15 to absolutely refine the entry it is necessary???? And what is your opinion on instruments size when it comes to me (using DAILY 4H 1H(entries), 15M(absolute refine))
Yes back testing always helps. Would definitely recommend that.
@@berndskorupinskiwhat can be best number of instruments to trade with my style that i mentioned above
