Trident Trading Strategy earns six figures monthly, Tyler strikes gold during the lunchtime period

Trader Tyler Goedtel, who came out of an elevator shaft construction site, has recently become a hot topic in the trading community. Using a trading system called the “Trident Strategy,” he achieved over $400,000 in profit in just three months, which is nearly 3 million RMB. Even more remarkable, he has decided to fully share this exclusive strategy.

Tyler claims this method is unique, with a very high win rate and an unusually favorable risk-reward ratio. With many years of experience, he has never heard of any other trader achieving such high win rates combined with a high risk-reward ratio. This has made him a super trader consistently earning six figures in USD each month.

Choosing the Right Trading Time Is More Important Than Choosing the Right Strategy

To maximize the effectiveness of the Trident Strategy, selecting the right time window is crucial. After years of backtesting, Tyler found that the London “kill zone” (from 3 a.m. to 6:30 a.m. New York time) is the most liquid and energetic trading period, offering the highest probability of significant gains.

However, this time window is not fixed. Depending on the specific asset you trade, you should adjust it flexibly. For example, Bitcoin often shows clear trends between 10 p.m. and 1 a.m. Beijing time or from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. in the morning. By observing and backtesting, you can identify the optimal trading windows for different assets.

The core tool for this strategy is a TradingView indicator. You need to search for “Trident Pattern [SpeculationLab]” in the indicator search bar or apply it directly via the link below the video. After opening the indicator settings, you can adjust it according to your time zone. Note that the default setting on TradingView is based on New York time; if you use Beijing time, you need to convert accordingly.

Four Steps to Identify and Enter the Trident Pattern

Step 1: Confirm the Daily Trend

Tyler’s trading targets are usually naturally bullish assets like gold, Bitcoin, or Nasdaq. He first confirms the main trend on the daily chart. Set five EMA lines with periods of 5, 9, 13, 21, and 200. The 200-day EMA indicates the trend direction—if the price is above it, the market is in a clear bullish trend.

For added caution, he also adds the “Bull Trading one minute easy scalping” indicator on the daily chart as a supplementary signal. This indicator uses candlestick colors to distinguish market strength, with green indicating strong bullish momentum.

Step 2: EMA Stack on the 30-Minute Chart

After confirming the daily trend, switch to the 30-minute chart. The key observation here is whether the four EMA lines are perfectly stacked—meaning no crossovers or entanglements, arranged neatly from top to bottom. This stacking indicates highly concentrated momentum and a strong bullish structure.

Step 3: Formation and Verification of FVG Gaps

The Fair Value Gap (FVG) must appear above the EMA stack. More importantly, the gap’s formation should occur between 2:30 a.m. and 4 a.m.—the first half of the trading window (allowing for a 30-minute flexibility). This timing ensures the gap is generated during the period of highest momentum.

Step 4: Establishing the Trident Pattern

The formation rules for the Trident pattern are strict: a Doji candlestick’s wick must penetrate or touch the 50% level of the FVG. The subsequent candlestick must close below the high of the Doji. If the close is above the high, the signal is invalid. This price action is called “trend-following intrusion,” indicating the FVG is being reasonably filled, with strong bullish funds pushing the price to rebound quickly, showing market willingness to go higher.

When the trend is confirmed bullish, EMA lines are stacked, and a valid Trident pattern appears within the time window, the 30-minute chart will automatically mark an entry signal after the pattern closes.

The “Soft” Art of Stop Loss and Take Profit Management

There are two ideas for setting stop-loss: either below the lowest point of the candlestick that formed the FVG or below the swing low. For USD-related currency pairs, Tyler usually uses a fixed stop-loss of about 10 points. For more volatile assets like gold, he adopts a different approach—avoiding hard stops and waiting until the candle closes below a key level before deciding. This helps avoid being swept out by wick fills.

Profit-taking is more flexible and discretionary. Targets can be set on the daily chart, aiming to hold the position along the trend as long as possible. Exiting is not mechanical; it depends on market changes. Tyler considers closing when EMA lines cross or when a clear bearish candlestick appears. He believes that when to exit is learned through experience and intuition, not fixed rules.

Practical Example: Complete Demonstration of Bitcoin Trident Signal

Taking Bitcoin as an example, the price is above the 200-day EMA, indicating a clear bullish trend. On the 30-minute chart, the EMA lines are neatly stacked, showing strong momentum. During New York time from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., a clean gap appears with three candlesticks. The following Doji’s wick intrudes into the midpoint of the gap, and the next candle closes below the Doji’s high. This candle becomes the key entry point.

This forms the Trident pattern. You can enter the trade at the close of this key candle. The result shows a substantial profit, demonstrating the power of this strategy within the optimal time window.

Tips for Optimization and Practical Trading

Once converted into a TradingView indicator, the trading signals are clearly marked on the chart. However, honesty requires noting that the win rate and risk-reward ratio for different assets may not exactly match Tyler’s claims, and signals are relatively rare—some assets may only present a few opportunities per year.

This requires you to actively find more bullish assets suitable for this strategy. Each asset’s high-volatility periods differ, so continuous observation and backtesting are necessary to identify patterns. Different market environments and asset characteristics will influence the actual performance of the strategy.

Use the key time window to identify gaps and catch big moves with the Trident pattern, but remember: signals are few, and patience is needed. The essence of this method is not frequent trading but waiting for high-quality signals. Sometimes, controlling trading frequency and focusing on high-quality trades is wiser than trading often.

Hope this afternoon share inspires your trading ideas. Remember Tyler’s success, stick to doing the right thing at the right time, and make each trade a high-quality decision. Wishing you good luck in your trading.
