Amas PFT presents a high-probability prop firm focused trading methodology designed specifically to achieve consistent daily payouts ($1,000/day) by prioritizing base hits over home runs. The strategy is built around a strict 1:1 Risk-to-Reward ratio and relies on ICT Price Action principles including Higher Time Frame Draw on Liquidity, Candle Projection Theory (CPT), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Inversion FVGs, and Displacement.
We code and audit a new YouTube strategy every Tuesday. Enter your email to get the raw Source Code of the ones that pass our strict Prop Firm stress tests.
This page provides a detailed analysis of the This Trading Strategy Makes $1,000 a Day (Prop Firm 1:1 Base Hits Model), originally shared by the popular YouTube content creator Amas PFT. Many automated trading videos make high-win-rate claims that might not reflect typical live trading conditions, which is why we coded this strategy into a standardized Expert Advisor (.ex5 file) to verify those claims using historical backtests.
During our evaluation of the original ruleset, we analyzed trade frequency, risk exposure, and maximum drawdown. If the strategy tester results showed significant gaps between the creator's video claims and reality, we noted the discrepancies above. You can download the compiled EA directly to run your own backtests on your broker's terminal using the universal tester key provided.
For traders interested in a more robust implementation, we also offer an optimized version. Our team refines the core rules by adding advanced filters, trailing stops, and spread protections to address common issues like false breakouts and high latency, transforming educational YouTube concepts into structured algorithmic trading tools.
