📢 Real-time testing continues; the DAF-LH model has been renamed to the DAF-EX model.
My Dealer Action Flow (referred to as DAF) strategy is a multi-dimensional trading system based on the concept of 'dealer behavior recognition,' consisting of a total of 5 trading models.
DAF-AC Accumulation Entry Model.
DAF-DX Distribution Exit Model.
DAF-MR Manipulated Reversal Model.
DAF-SB Structural Breakout Model.
DAF-EX Exhaustion Point Model.
Currently, only the actual measured DAF-EX model (formerly the LH model) is publicly available. The LH model has helped me capture many key rebounds and short-term turns, but as the real-time implementation progressed, I discovered some fundamental issues:
❌ Signal recognition is too broad: weak signals do not take early profits, leading to floating profits turning into losses; strong signals do not form patterns, leading to premature exits and missed profits.
❌ Signal strength is not graded: strong signals enter too quickly, with stop losses too tight, resulting in getting swept out.
❌ Execution time frame is chaotic: entry structures and stop loss structures are confused, leading to low win rates without self-awareness.
❌ No rhythm control: frequent actions when signals are strong lead to repeated mistakes; greed when signals are weak turns holding positions into losses.
These issues forced me to overturn the execution logic of the LH model, so I restructured and improved the model, including signal levels, cycle division, and order standards. It was renamed the DAF-EX Exhaustion Point Model.
Core features of the DAF-EX model:
Clearly divides the liquidation signals into two levels, used for intraday counterattacks and short-term reversals.
The entry structure uniformly comes from low time frames, while the stop loss structure comes from high time frames.
Signals need to be a trinity of 'behavior + structure + liquidation'; single signals are not allowed to trigger actions.
Each signal is only allowed to be attempted twice; if wrong, exit, never trade three times.
🔹 EX-Limit (intraday trading)
Specifically used to identify local sweeps + structural recoveries.
→ Quick in and out, high win rate, extremely tight stop loss.
🔸 EX-Ultra (short-term trading)
Only counteract or initiate trends after extreme liquidation structures.
→ Rare signals, wide stop loss structure protection, pursuing paragraph-level profit-loss ratios.
📌 I have provided a complete execution system for each signal:
How to determine the validity of liquidation behavior.
How to separate structure charts from stop loss charts.
How to set profit target structures.
How to identify signal failures and exit in a timely manner.
The DAF-EX model does not rely on predictions, only observing one thing:
When one side of the market is completely swept away, does the dealer start to control the market?
If it has started, I place an order; if it hasn't been completed, I remain inactive.
