Start and scale your trading business with a simple systematic strategy. Hey I’m Matt, founder of Photon Trading. It’s all yours if you want it.

Photon Trading has a unique approach to trading the FX markets, simplifying trading by focusing on raw price action and institutional order zones. I started my trading journey over 6 years ago as an analyst on a commodity trading desk straight out of university. I absolutely fell in love with the markets, however, I always knew that the lack of freedom from trading my time for money in a corporate

2 simple ways to validate STRONG S&D zones:⁣

1️⃣ BOS - Look for what caused a shift in market structure.⁣

2️⃣ FLIP - Look for where demand failed to do its job (create a high) and where supply took control (vice versa). ⁣

No reaction = no flip ❌⁣

Once structure and order flow has shifted in your favour, it’s go time ✅ ⁣

Struggling to know which SD zone is going to work? 🤷‍♂️ ⁣

Fed up of the guessing game? ⁣

You must look for where price is reacting to zones to show where orders (money) are exchanging hands 🤝⁣

Where that battle occurs is where either demand or supply is overpowering the other ⚔️⁣

This is where we want to hop on to that winning horse and ride the next leg.⁣

Develop a mechanical method for drawing and trading it ⚙️ ⁣

Rinse & repeat 🔁 ⁣

Follow the footprints & ride the money wave 🏄‍♂️ ⁣

Always be asking - who is in control? 🤔

Confused as to how far you should push trades?⁣ 🥴

Don’t know when to enter counter-trend? 🤔⁣

I hate writing captions…⁣

…so hopefully you can figure out the answers to those questions by studying the annotated chart above 😁👍🏼⁣

But if you can’t…⁣

I’ve still got you! 👊🏼⁣

Its all about understanding market structure 🤓⁣

The 4H is bearish but is pulling back.⁣

The M15 is bullish to facilitate the 4H pullback. ⁣

Price hits 4H supply in 4H discount, gives an M15 bearish CHoCH, you then enter short on M15 supply. ⁣

Where do you target? 🧐⁣

It’s pro 4H trend but counter M15 trend…⁣

🤔🤔 WHAT DO I DO??? 🥴😫⁣

Calm down son, take a breath, relax yo-self ⁣

🧘‍♂️ ⁣

The 4H can form a lower high here, but it’s in the discount & there’s unmitigated 4H supply above. ⁣

Probabilities are that the M15 will stay bullish to mitigate the 4H supply in premium 🎲 ⁣

The reaction is just to provide liquidity to fuel the move further to the upside 💧 ⁣

Okay, cool 😎 ⁣

Take heavy partials at the M15 strong low / demand. ⁣

(Leave some volume in case price runs the 4H low).⁣

But in this example, the M15 stays bullish and eventually mitigates 4H extreme supply. ⁣

Wait for M15 CHoCH…yes you’re shorting against M15 trend but this 4H supply zone HAS to hold IF the 4H trend is staying bearish. ⁣

Enter full margin and tell your mum she can now retire 📞👩🥂🏖⁣

You can take some partials at the M15 low in the small possibility it holds…⁣

But odds are it won’t, so hold must of your volume down to the 4H weak low.⁣

BOOM ✅ ⁣

Confused when to trade counter-trend or when the pro-trend move is about to start? ⁣

Applying the Premium vs Discount tool to your multi-timeframe analysis can really help to boost your strike rate and R:R. ⁣

Buy low, sell high right? ⁣

Are you often unsure whether it’s too early to be buying or too late to be selling? ⁣

The simple tools are usually the most effective.⁣

Premium vs Discount falls in that category.⁣

Use it to increase your strike rate for entries…⁣

…and to boost your R:R by knowing how far you should be pushing trades. ⁣

Think of how a business would like to manage its stock.⁣

They would buy it whilst the price is low & then sell it whilst the price is high. ⁣

The same goes for trading. ⁣

Longs are higher probability in discount prices.⁣

Shorts are higher probability in premium prices. ⁣

But it goes without saying…⁣

Price does NOT have to pull back to the discount to form a higher low…⁣

…or the premium to form a lower high. ⁣

If your BELIEFS about trading are BALANCED, REALISTIC, and EMPOWERING, you will naturally have the greatest probability of success. ⁣

Humans tend to OVERestimate what they can achieve in just a few MONTHS…⁣

…and massively UNDERestimate what they can achieve in just a few YEARS. ⁣

🧠👨🏻‍⚕️💉You wouldn’t watch a course on brain surgery & expect to operate on a patient the next day… ⁣

✈️ 👨‍✈️ Or read a book on how to be a pilot and then fly a jumbo jet? ⁣

So don’t expect the same with trading. ⁣

Crash course = crash landing 💥🤕⁣

In Photon, the very FIRST thing I help you do is dissolve & crush any trading fantasies that you may have…⁣

Why? ⁣

Because that allows you to think, plan, and act with a POISED mind 🧘‍♂️ ⁣

Not a POISONED mind of emotions 🥴⁣

That’s why I lay out a detailed 12 month roadmap to align your expectations on your journey that actually INCREASES your probability of achieving success as QUICKLY as possible. ⁣

Trust the process. ⁣

MAPPING COMPLEX SWING STRUCTURE 👇🏼⁣

Swing high = highest point that broke the swing low.⁣

Swing low = lowest point that broke the swing high. ⁣

Sometimes it can be a bit tricky in examples like this where price breaks the swing high in a bearish trend, but fails to CLOSE above it, therefore no bullish BOS. ⁣

Price then continues the bearish trend by breaking & closing below the swing low to form a lower low. ⁣

Now the new swing LOWER high is actually HIGHER than the previous lower high (blue range) 🤯⁣

= liquidty grab -> continuation of bearish order flow 😎 ⁣

Perfect example of why I wait for a candle body close to confirm a swing BOS ✅ ⁣

Keep it mechanical ⚙️ ⁣

Consistent actions = consistent results ⁣

💬 Do you wait for a candle close for BOS?

FRACTAL ORDER FLOW:⁣

A run on a HTF is a trend on a LTF…⁣

Okay, cool…how do I put that knowledge to use?⁣

Pick 3 ‘evenly’ spaced timeframes. ⁣

Example: 4H / M15 / M1 ⁣

After a 4H BOS, we expect a pullback. ⁣

Wait for the M15 to switch bearish to trade the 4H pullback. ⁣

Once the M15 switches bullish, the 4H pullback is now likely finished & the 4H higher low has formed.⁣

Don’t jump in straight away…⁣

…wait for the M15 to pull back to buy the M15 higher low. ⁣

The M1 is bearish whilst the M15 is pulling back, once it switches bullish…⁣

…now all three timeframes are in sync…⁣

…we can trade the pro-trend swing run targeting the weak 4H swing high. ⁣

Bank a billion R 💰 ⁣
Order your lambo 🚙 ⁣
Tell your mum she can retire early 🍾⁣
Job done ✅ ⁣

That’s how you use 3 timeframes to give you confirmation + refinement to boost your strike rate & sky rocket your reward to risk 🚀 ⁣
