FREE TRADING STRATEGY:
The Flip Method
Welcome to the Flip Method
A simple yet powerful trading approach designed to help new and developing traders understand market structure, spot high probability reversals, and enter trades with clarity instead of confusion.
This method blends concepts learned from ICT, DaveTeachesFX, and Stoic Trader and organizes them into an easy to follow system that removes the noise and focuses on what the market is truly doing.
Below, you will find a chart example that show the Flip Method in action. This example walks you through structure, sweeps, protected levels, the Flip Zone, and confluence tools such as EMAs and VWAP. Together, they show why this pattern has become one of the clearest and most consistent ways for traders to understand reversal and continuation setups.
Below is a FREE Tradingview indicator that can be used with this Flip Method that will add the 20 EMA, 200 EMA, and VWAP to your chart!
The Flip Method shows you three essential skills every trader must develop.
1. How to Identify a True Shift in Market Structure
A Flip happens when price stops breaking old lows and starts breaking old highs or the opposite. This shift reveals the moment the market changes direction. Once you learn to spot it, your charts will never look the same.
2. How to Use Sweeps and Protected Levels for Precision Entries
Sweeps expose liquidity and reveal where large participants are active. When sweeps form inside a Flip and the protected high or low stays intact, the trade idea becomes much stronger. This creates confidence in your entry and clarity in your stop placement.
3. How to Use Confluence to Strengthen Your Setup
The Flip Method uses the twenty EMA for short term trend, the two hundred EMA for overall momentum, and VWAP as the fair value reference of the session. When all three agree with your Flip, you have a clean, high probability environment.
Why the Flip Method Works
Most traders lose because they trade noise. The Flip Method filters the noise by requiring four things to line up.
• Clean market structure
• A clear sweep
• A protected level that remains safe
• Trend and momentum alignment with EMAs and VWAP
When these four elements agree, traders are no longer guessing. They are following a repeatable pattern that shows up every single week in the markets.
A Message for New Traders
The Flip Method is not just a strategy. It is a mindset shift. It teaches traders to slow down, read structure, wait for confirmation, and make decisions without fear.
If you want to grow in discipline and confidence, pair this free strategy with strong trading psychology. My book Static in The Markets was written to help traders develop the emotional resilience and clarity needed to succeed in both the markets and in life.
This strategy is free because your foundation matters. Your growth matters. And with the right tools, you can build consistency one decision at a time.
