At first, it may seem easy and all about making money, but without real knowledge, it quickly turns frustrating. Many books teach the basics but end up overwhelming readers with too many tools. Early in my trading journey, I made the same mistake. I tried every indicator, candlestick strategy, and chart pattern. In the end, I failed to find a simple way to see the market’s true structure. Whether you are new to trading or struggling to make steady profits, this book will help you improve. No matter what asset you trade, I encourage you to read the entire book. It will give you a full understanding of my Three-Day Breakout Strategy. In this book, you’ll come across terms like: ● Three-Day High ● Three-Day Low ● Three-Day Range ● Three-Day 50% Range ● Three-Day Breakout ● Three-Day Breakout Strategy I capitalize them to highlight their importance in my method. This book bases all time references and charts on South African Standard Time (SAST), GMT+2. Please convert to your local time zone when reviewing examples and trading sessions. Full version available at: https://payhip.com/b/Lo4Xh Chapter 1: Why Three Days? Why base the strategy on three days? Why not four, one, or some other number? The reason is simple: to see a pattern, you need at least three data points. One or two points won’t reveal a clear structure. But with three, a shape begins to form. That’s why three is a key number in trading. Many traders pay close attention to the last three days of price movement. A break above the Three-Day High signals a possible uptrend, while a break below the Three-Day Low suggests a potential downtrend. If the market doesn’t break above or below these levels, it could be testing support or resistance, reversing direction, or just consolidating. The following is a simple illustration. The Three-Day 50% Range is the midpoint between the Three-Day High and Low. When the market is above this range, buyers are starting to take control. When the price is below the range, sellers are more likely in control. I usually calculate the Three-Day 50% Range using Fibonacci retracements. Another method is to add the Three-Day High and Low, then divide the total by two. The results may vary slightly. Remember, the Three-Day 50% Range is a zone, not a precise line. Here’s a straightforward example that illustrates the Three-Day Breakout Strategy. Figure 1.1 shows the EUR/USD daily chart. We will focus on June 12, 2025. Full version available at: https://payhip.com/b/Lo4Xh I looked at the past three trading days, from June 9 to June 11, and marked the Three-Day High and the Three-Day Low. I also drew the Three-Day 50% Range, the midpoint between the Three-Day High and the Three-Day Low. Figure 1.1: EUR/USD Daily Chart highlighting June 12, 2025 (from TradingView). Note: All chart times are based on South African Standard Time (SAST), GMT+2. A closer look at the 15-minute time frame, as shown in Figure 1.2, gives us a clearer view of the market structure. EUR/USD traded above the Three-Day 50% Range. Eventually, it broke above the Three-Day High, confirming a bullish trend. The Three-Day Breakout Strategy isn’t just a method; it’s your guide to spotting real opportunities in the market noise.

Full version available at: https://payhip.com/b/Lo4Xh If you trade currencies, commodities, or crypto, focus on the major trading sessions. The London session runs from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM GMT. London's session and its overlap with the New York session are the best times. These are the periods when the market is most active. If you trade U.S. indices or stocks, focus on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) hours. It opens at 9:30 AM EST and closes at 4:00 PM EST. Just because the market is open all day doesn’t mean you should be trading the whole time. Smart traders know how to be selective. Pay attention to major events; they can move the market fast. Many platforms can keep you updated; I use Investing.com because it provides fast access to the economic calendar and upcoming reports. You can filter events and select your region based on the asset you’re trading, as shown in Figure 1.3. Figure 1.3: Economic Calendar screenshot (from Investing.com ). Staying updated on global events is essential. Channels like CNN and Bloomberg can help. Never trade based on news alone. Understanding market fundamentals is essential. As a trader, you need to know what’s happening before you take a position. Full version available at: https://payhip.com/b/Lo4Xh I avoid trading in a range-bound market; it usually means the market hasn’t picked a direction yet. Instead, I prefer trading breakouts from the Three-Day High or Low because they often signal that a trend is beginning. Next, I’ll show you how to apply the Three-Day Breakout Strategy to: ● Currencies ● Cryptocurrencies ● Commodities ● Indices ● Stocks This strategy works on any timeframe: 5, 15, or 30 minutes, or even 1 hour. For most of the entries in this book, I’ll focus on the 15-minute chart. Full version available at: https://payhip.com/b/Lo4Xh Enjoyed Chapter 1?
