Neil trades crypto with a heavy long bias, buying support and resistance flips at current market price. His targets are drawn on the attached chart rather than typed out, his stops are candle closes below a level rather than a price touch, and every result is reported in R, the multiple of what was risked. Winners get scaled out with a runner left for the bigger move.
( 02 โ HOW HE TRADES )
How he trades
- 01The chart is half the alertTPs in white means the take-profit levels are drawn on the attached image, not written in the text. If you are reading the text alone you do not have the trade; open the chart.
- 02His stops are closes, not touches4H close under 0.425 for stops means the trade is only stopped if a 4-hour candle closes below that level. A wick through it does not count. This keeps him in trades that shake others out, and it means your exchange stop order does not replicate his rule.
- 03Results are in R2R means the trade made twice what was risked; 12R twelve times. It says nothing about percent gain without knowing the risk. To follow him properly, define your risk per trade first, then R means the same thing for you as for him.
- 04DCA levels are planned, not panicMany entries come with a pre-set average-down level. If the DCA fills, his average moves and follow-ups reference the new average. Only mirror the DCA if you left room for it at entry.
- 05Runners are where the big R comes fromThe headline results come from the last piece of a position held long after the first targets, with the stop at breakeven. Scaling fully out at TP1 gives you a different, smaller version of his results.
( 03 โ ALERT FORMAT )
What his alerts look like
Opening a long
โGoing long PIXEL here at CMP. TPs above, DCA @ 0.004409, 4H close under 0.00425 for stopsโ
Entry at current market price, targets on the attached chart, a planned average-down level, and a close-based stop rule rather than a hard stop price.
Taking profit
โTP1 hit on VVV and we up nicely, 2.5R hereโ
First target filled at two and a half times the risked amount. Expect the stop to move to breakeven on the remainder.
Closing a runner
โETH long runner FULLY CLOSED here at 30Rโ
The final slice of a position exited far above the first targets. Runners are a small fraction of the original size; the R multiple is real but the position was mostly closed earlier.

Notes and warnings
- Close-based stops cannot be set as a normal stop order. You either watch the candle closes yourself or accept that your hard stop will sometimes take you out of trades he stays in.
- R multiples are not percentages. A 30R headline on a runner is a multiple of the risk on a small remaining piece, not a 30x account gain.
- He also takes spot positions with no leverage for slower ideas, flagged as spot in the alert.
