My Complete Trading Setup: The Tools That Actually Work

After years of indicator overload, I've stripped down to these essential tools that consistently give me edge. Here's my exact technical stack:

Trend & Bias Framework:

EMA System for Direction
9/26D crossover determines my overall bias - simple but powerful for filtering noise. Combined with 200D MA on 6H and Daily timeframes for confirmation.

When all EMAs align, that's when I size up positions. Conflicting signals = wait for clarity.

Flow & Liquidity Analysis:

Volume Profile: The Roadmap
Shows where high and low liquidity zones exist. I use this to find the path of least resistance - where price will move fastest and where it'll face friction.

HVN = resistance/support. LVN = fast moves through thin air.

VWAP + Standard Bands
Use VWAPs with standard deviation bands for mean reversion entries. When #BTC hits 2+ standard deviations from VWAP, it's often stretched for reversal.

CVD: Who's Really Driving
Cumulative Volume Delta reveals whether buyers or sellers are leading the tape. Price can fake moves, but CVD shows real money flow.

Real-Time Market Feel:

Orderbook Depth Analysis
Track 0-25% depth on both spot and perp markets. Helps identify what's driving moves and spot divergences between markets.

Next level: Learning options skews to read institutional positioning, but taking it one step at a time.

The Integration:

None of these work in isolation. The magic happens when multiple indicators confirm the same story. That's when probabilities shift dramatically in your favor.
