Hi everyone,
Gusto ko lang i-share yung trading journey ko so far. I’ve been studying the markets for around 3 years, but honestly for a long time paikot-ikot lang ako sa iba’t ibang concepts and strategies without a clear structure. Recently, I decided to take trading more seriously. Instead of chasing new strategies, I started focusing on understanding market behavior, journaling my trades, and doing proper backtesting. Right now I’m working on a simple price-action model based on liquidity, displacement, and fair value gaps. Hindi ko sinasabi na perfect na siya — I’m still testing and learning — pero it helped me understand the market better compared to before.
Ito yung general structure na hinahanap ko:
Examples:
I’m currently still backtesting and journaling the model.
So far I have around 60+ backtested trades and the rough stats look like this:
So far I’m:
Still a long way to go, but at least ngayon mas structured na yung approach ko compared to before.
Just sharing the journey. If anyone here studies similar concepts, happy to learn from you guys as well.

The Model I’m Currently Studying
The basic idea is that the market moves because of liquidity and institutional repricing.Ito yung general structure na hinahanap ko:
- HTF Bias (Daily Timeframe)
Identify market structure and premium/discount. - Asian Session Range
Usually tight range where liquidity builds. - Liquidity Sweep
London session sweeps Asian high or low. - Displacement
Strong aggressive candle showing momentum. - Market Structure Shift (MSS)
- Entry
Retracement into the Fair Value Gap (FVG), usually near the 0.62 fib. - Targets
Partial profits around 2R–4R, then runner towards liquidity targets.
Examples:
Current Backtesting Results (So Far)
I’m currently still backtesting and journaling the model.
So far I have around 60+ backtested trades and the rough stats look like this:
- Winrate: ~55%
- Average win: around 4R+
- Risk per trade: 1R
- Expectancy: positive (~2R per trade based on current data)
Current Focus
Right now ang focus ko is process over profit.So far I’m:
- backtesting my model
- journaling trades
- studying market structure
- practicing discipline and patience
Still a long way to go, but at least ngayon mas structured na yung approach ko compared to before.
Just sharing the journey. If anyone here studies similar concepts, happy to learn from you guys as well.
