The stock prices rise and you tell yourself, "Okay, this meets my trading rules, let’s go for it."
But right after you buy, the prices suddenly plummet – falling so low that it hit your stop-loss orders, causing you to lose money before hiking back up the charts again.
Despite your best efforts, the sudden price U-turns always seem to catch you unaware and threaten to wipe out your capital.
You begin to lose faith in your trading plan as the market keeps springing surprises that contradict what you learnt in the books and websites.
As we speak, big financial institutions (known as “Market Makers”) are falsifying supply & demand to make retail traders believe the market is moving in their favour.
Once we buy into the market condition they simulated, they turn the charts around and target our stop-loss orders.
… causing 90% of unsuspecting retail traders to lose their hard-earned capital.
Our biggest opportunity is not to go head-on against the big players, but to spot their intentions and trade beside them.
By knowing exactly when the Market Makers strike, we can secure the right trades before other retail traders and get out before the prices turn against us.
This is how I trade for a living and it helped me maintain 20 winning quarters in a row with a net profit of USD 1.2 million.
By sharing my strategy, I hope it can add value to your trading plan and change the way you see the markets.
Before I go on: I believe that in this industry, credibility and trust is important.
Nobody wants to learn trading from an “educator” with only a one-hit-wonder strategy and no track record.
So let me share my humble background with you.
I would make a flawed analysis, get stopped out and not know what went wrong. I would get frustrated from making the wrong choices and losing my capital.
But I was passionate about this trade and continued to study the charts relentlessly. At my peak, I traded 16 hours a day.
One day it hit me.
I noticed that large financial players, a.k.a. "Market Makers" were offering large volume orders to drive prices up and down the charts.
They were literally buying and selling to themselves to falsify supply & demand and manipulate market conditions.
By doing so, they could “print” candlesticks and make retail traders buy into the patterns they created. Then they turn around and target our stop-loss orders… you know how the story ends.
Once I realised this open secret, I changed my entire trading strategy.
After > 15,000 hours of live trading and first-hand research, I developed the “XSPY Price Action Manipulation” strategy.
With it, I learnt to enter the minds of Market Makers – how to think like them, know when exactly they will twist prices, and enter and exit my trades beside them.
I stopped second-guessing the market and started making quick and sharp analysis. I created a solid trading plan and followed my rules with discipline and commitment.
After 5 years living the hectic life of a prop trader, I decided to leave the prop desk.
I started the XSPY Trader coaching programme to share my strategy and form a circle of like-minded, serious traders.
I appreciate Alson’s willingness to share from his knowledge and experiences as a professional trader. He has very good insights on the subject matter and I trust that he will continue to refine his programme
My most valuable takeaway was learning the market makers’ way of accumulation and distribution, and their way of taking out stops. I hope this makes us the 5% of traders that are profitable. I’m glad to be part of Spytrader Futures.

You may have encountered courses out there offering “proven formulas” and “auto robots”.
These may work — in fair-weather market conditions. But as intelligent traders, you know we cannot rely on these “easy trading systems” for consistent, long-term returns.
I strongly believe in trading the only way I know how to — with clear judgment, sharp analysis and firm discipline.
The difference is, you don’t have to experiment with dozens of different techniques, struggling to find a system that works for you.
I’ll help shorten your learning curve by sharing prop desk insights I’ve learnt, stripping my strategy down to the step-by-step essentials that can help you profit.
At the free workshop, I’ll show you real charts of how I take profit using my strategy.
Why clutter your screens and overwhelm yourselves with slow indicators, when you can actually
read clean charts based on the only indicator that matters — PRICE.
Here’s what my
students and I see every day:
I’ll be honest with you here. I’m a trader by profession, not a speaker/salesman.
This means I don’t have a glib tongue and I’m not good at hyping people up with millionaire dreams and get-rich-quick guarantees.
My strategy is especially powerful for serious traders who want to make an income through trading.
It is not recommended for lazy people who want to make easy money without effort.
But if you're looking for an honest coach and a straight-to-the-point trading strategy, I sincerely invite you to learn more at my FREE workshop.
There'll be no oily sales pitches – just honest sharing of my trading tactics and a rare glimpse into proprietary trading practices.
