My Trading Strategy Is Boring, But It Makes Me $60k/Month (FULL Strategy)

Code base used · SMT All-in-One + Roman Essentials v0.1

Target stack for Nitro CRT. Versions per /workspace/smt-python/VERSION_LOG.md.

Code base
SMT_AllinOne + Roman v0.1: Python power-test surface pinned 2026-09-25; smt_strategy/allinone/, CLI smt_strategy/run_smt_allinone_roman.py.
Order manager
Roman Essentials Host v0.1 (pinned 2026-09-24). Param bag essentials_params_full.json, version 2026-09-25: 294 params across 11 categories and 37 groups.
Entry plugin
Nitro CRT plugin v1 (nitro_crt_v1, 2026-09-24) is entry-only: it sends entry signals, and Roman Essentials/ZZ manages the trades (size, stops, TP ladder, session, max trades, trailing).
Ninja (reference)
Full SMT Strategy V3 (AllinOneStrategy) on PC2.

Honesty line: today's Nitro CRT backtest (run_nitro_crt_a_rebreak_bt.py, 10 stocks, clean data: −$86,953, PF 0.90, 370 trades) used a simplified Roman-style order-management stand-in (one stop, one target, 0.5% risk, max 2/day), not the full stack. It has not yet been run through the full All-in-One + Roman order manager. Source: smt-python/results/nitro_crt_weekly_clean_2026-10-01/compare_summary.json (STOCKS_COMBINED).

Summary bullets 7

(en-orig deep-card captions; timestamps are video mm:ss; “not stated” is retained where the card gives no rule.)

Main logic

  • [04:30–05:25] Options: opening range break then post-break FVG pullback/respect. [05:45] CRT board shows sweep/reverse to opposite end.

Entry

  • [05:00] Options FVG pullback/respect; CRT trigger is not detailed.

Stop

  • [07:32, 10:49, 15:40] Options 15% (some examples 10%); futures dollar loss is about half TP.

Target

  • [07:32, 14:03] Options 25%; futures 1.5–2R.

Risk filters

  • [01:47, 02:42] Fixed RR and 1–2 trades/day; [09:57–10:31] consistent 7–10 MNQ; no news/chop filter stated.

Timeframe

  • [05:07] Options 1–5m, mostly 1m, best 09:30–11:00; CRT board 1H/30m/15m.

Exceptions

  • [15:45] tool differs from spoken dollars; CRT entry/bias/news rules are not in this video.

My Trading Strategy Is Boring, But It Makes Me $60k/Month (FULL Strategy)

Video uXO0j7sFHwM · updated 2026-10-01

1Strategy write-up

Main logic
Options breaker→FVG is the detailed model; a futures CRT is shown as a second model. The risk-management “holy trinity” is fixed RR, 1–2 trades/day and consistent size.
Entry
Options: break 09:30–09:40 range, then post-break FVG pullback/respect. CRT entry trigger is not detailed (05:45).
Stop
Options bracket 15% SL (examples vary); futures fixed dollar loss about half the dollar target, e.g. $300/$600 or $400/$800 (07:32, 10:49, 15:40).
Target
Options 25% TP; futures 1.5–2R examples $600/$800 (07:32, 14:03).
Risk filters
1–2 trades/day, consistent sizing 7–10 MNQ (or 7); bracket/no early exit; no news/chop filter stated.
Timeframe
Options 1–5m (99% 1m), best 09:30–11:00; CRT board only shows 1H/30m/15m and 09:30–13:00 plus evening 19:00–22:00.
Exceptions
CRT bias and detailed trigger are not in video; tool shows 2.01R and $750/$1,502.91, conflicting with spoken $400/$800; Monday example conflicts with other cards.

Playbook summary what this video teaches

Limited data in this video's pack: the CRT trigger and bias are not detailed (only a board is shown); most detail is about an options BOS-FVG model.

  • Main model: options opening-range break (09:30-09:40), then a post-break FVG pullback/respect entry. A futures CRT is shown as a second model.
  • Risk 'holy trinity': fixed RR, 1-2 trades/day, consistent size (7-10 MNQ).
  • Timeframe: options 1-5m (mostly 1m), best 09:30-11:00; the CRT board shows 1H/30m/15m and 09:30-13:00 plus 19:00-22:00.
  • Stop/target: options 15% stop / 25% target bracket; futures dollar loss about half the target (e.g. $300/$600, $400/$800), 1.5-2R.
  • No early exits (bracket); no news or chop filter stated.

Code model notes how the ideas map to code

Limited data in this video's pack: the CRT trigger and bias are not detailed (only a board is shown); most detail is about an options BOS-FVG model.

(b) Detection and entry logic

  1. Options: opening-range break, first post-break FVG, enter on the pullback respect; fixed % bracket.
  2. Futures CRT: only the board is shown (sweep, reverse, opposite end); trigger and bias would need another video's rules.

(c) Already coded in our Nitro CRT implementation

  • C1/C2 sweep + close back inside: run_nitro_crt_a_rebreak_bt.py::detect_and_simulate (sw_lo / sw_hi, inside, c2_edge_tol_frac=0.0), on 5m bars only (resample_ohlc '5min').
  • Target: run_nitro_crt_a_rebreak_bt.py::detect_and_simulate target_mode='c1_opposite' (long = C1 high, short = C1 low); skip if R:R < min_rr=0.5 (rr_fallback_R=None).
  • The Nitro CRT runner and plugin contain no BOS / FVG / opening-range logic.
  • Reusable primitives exist elsewhere but are NOT wired to Nitro: smt_strategy/ict/fvg.py::detect_fvgs, ict/fvg_entries.py::generate_fvg_entry_signals, ict/bos.py::detect_bos, allinone_v4/levels.py::detect_levels.
  • Plugin nitro_crt_v1: python/signal_contract.py::build_signal only formats an entry signal (trigger_price, stop_hint, target_hint); ninja/NitroCRT_Entry_v1.cs is a stub (EmitOnly=true, session + RequireHtfBias knobs, no C1/C2 detector). Roman Essentials/ZZ is the order manager.
