My name is Etienne Crete (from Montreal, Canada). I'm a swing Forex trader and help aspiring Forex traders develop a trading method that works for them so they can produce income allowing them to live with more freedom.
I blog at www.desiretotrade.com and host the Desire To Trade Podcast. I was fed up with the “fake” millionaire traders and the “get-rich-quick-trading guys”. That's why you can expect more free content from me than what other people charge for!
If you truly want to succeed in Forex trading, I believe you need to keep working on yourself so you can improve your strengths, but also your weaknesses. Do not focus solely on what you're good at.

I hope you liked this interview! It was very fascinating stuff and a lot of fun doing it!
Please share it with other traders who could benefit from it 💪📈
Thanks for hosting this Podcast Etienne, I indeed had a blast doing it, and I'll do it again anytime.
@@Jasperforex much appreciated JF!
@@Jasperforex can someone explain the 3 bar and the drawing of the range as well as the 30 pip max if you have loads of trades to manage
@@JWAVE16 Five minutes timeframe is analyzing and one minute timeframe for execution the trade.
Lesson learnt 👍
This is one of the best teachers in the interview series. He didn't just talk about trading he showed us live. More like this Etienne, it was a great one! Thanks for sharing man.
Thank you! Really appreciate the feedback :)
thats the best part about the interview
Protect this man by all means necessary !!!, Jean-Francois Boucher is a genius, if only I could learn his style.
You can, just do EXACTLY what he said in the interview.
@@Patso65 are you trading in this style?
I really like his approach, been implementing his ideas into my own (still very early days yet).
True that!
This is extremely interesting. Certainly this Gentleman has a lot of experience. He talks very well, and he has a vast knowledge, he shows us live how he is doing it. This is not your average UA-cam bullshitter. This is the real deal. Certainly, he has more experience than me. I apreciate this.
I really enjoyed this interview with Jean-Francois. I caught the first one you had with him on your podcast but lost track of him even though we live in the same province in Canada. Having him talk about his method of trading and showing charts this time was awesome... So glad he has beat his health problems and seeing him doing well now is heart warming... Jean-Francois, I hope you are having a wonderful and blessed day!!...
Hope this man is back on good health again
Full of pearls of wisdom from an experienced and successful trader. Thank you both. Wish you good health, Jean-Francois.
Finally someone actually sharing with the community then talking nonsense. Thank you for the great Interview
lol
The reason I became a scalper the same reason he did. The bottom line after listening to hours of traders and strategies nobody really knows which way the market is going. What you really can see is where it's going over the next few points more than that you really got lucky. This was a master class for me.
starting to think that too...
Next few points 🙏🏾
Yup. Momentum. Very rarely when all the signs line up and it takes a direction, will it not go in that direction for a while. If it doesn't (20% of the time?), stop out. Then try again.
I agree.
Agreed
Since I've watched this interview a while ago my outlook on Forex has completely changed. I used some of these tips to adjust my strategy and it has really helped me a lot in the past few months!! I've completely changed the way I trade, and it has made a big difference. 💪🙌
Not sure if everyone got it, but the tricks are once in a trade you are busy.. after a time stop if its not going your way use tools like hedging (adding a trade same size in the opposite direction) or using margin (like hedging but a bigger size) . the only way to learn this is practice back testing daily.. Awesome interview, all the good stuff is there, Thats it.. :-)
I have watched many many interviews Etienne has done..
And this is the only interview where Etienne doesn't talk much doesn't ask much..he's just listening and smiling 😃😃 and scratching his head sometimes 😆
Super cool stuff from Jean-Francois by the way
Mr Jean-Francois Boucher keep emphasizing about being an active risk manager. Totally agree with him !
Yes, very important!
What great wisdom and insight, Jean Francois Boucher blessed us with on this video. Praise God for his improved health. Thank you Etienne for masterfully letting this man continue to spit out his knowledge and expertise. Unlike most of your interviews, you were masterful in how you sat back and let Jean continue speaking his thoughts.....all while executing his trades in real-time. This man did not need any direction in this interview. What I took out of this today is 1) Set hours and never deviate from them. Treat it as a profitable business. 2) Their is always more ranges, then trends and more opportunities to profit. 3) Hedging your trades when things go the wrong way to attempt to break even or at least reduce the loss. 4) We are risk managers.
Excellent! I've listened to this three times -- so far -- to take in all the content.
J-F Boucher,,,,,,is such a Legend Trader,,,,,i also know this Legend for a Good Couple of Years,,,,i am also at the same Global Prime Broker, got Huge Respect's for this Humble Legend!!!!! Always Appreciate his Valuable Info and Knowlege. Thank You Etienne, always Appreciate Your Podcasts,,,,,,Huge Respect's!!!!!!!
Good to see JF back on the podcast I first watched when I first got started in the markets and now I'm at the cusp of profitability so I came full circle
one of the best and most realistic interviews you ever made in this channel . love it .
Gosh, this is honestly one of the best videos I've seen in my newbie journey of learning to trade, it is really hard to find quality material on the internet but through your podcasts I've been collection a lot of data, traders, links which has helped me a lot, I truly like this video as it is something different from everything else I have seen at the moment, at least to me, appreciate the job put on it, gonna keep learning, Br,
Thank you for this interview. I learned a lot. Jean-Francois is amazing.
So nice to hear a range trader share his views and expertise. This opens me up to seeing ranges in a new way. Thank you Jean-Francoise & Etienne.
I’m very glad you liked the interview!
@@DesireToTRADE what is that range indicator he uses?
Man man, I enjoyed this very much! Thanks gentlemen!
This absolute gold. Thank you both!
Thank you. I never watch these type of videos but omfg, it's extremely helpful.
Great guy!! But he wasn't ready to end the interview yet. Etienne, I'm glad you allowed him extra time to share more with us.
Thank you Etienne for such a great interview.
His playground is the lower time frames and he’s killing it, sort of like a shark knowing its territory/range. Money management he is spot on. We manage risk!👍👍👍
I know this because he was one of my 1st mentors, he is a wealth of leaking knowledge some of which I only realized later in my trading. The ichimoku cloud and pivots
points he teaches I use daily! Thanks Jean! 🤙
That’s very true! Great to hear!
@@DesireToTRADE Hi Etienne just FYI it was your 1st video with Jean that I watched, Which got me to his website been a subscribed fan of yours ever since thanks!!!
Great interview with a very interesting man! Many pearls of wisdom to digest.
I’m so glad he said that at the end regarding range trading. I’ve made just as much money on ranging days scalping calls and puts as I have on breakouts. UA-camrs make videos and say stuff that doesn’t make sense. Like to stay out of the market when it’s bouncing back and forth in a small range.
halfway thru the interview and i already like the man. he breaks all the rules to his favor. Reason why its important to find what works for you and run with it.I kinda have a similar approach and sometimes if i share everyone's jaws drop down but it works for me. Markets are dynamic and fluid.
Do you recommend any books on what the guys saying
@@DippySippy on what topics, or area do you think you'd like to get an expert experienced view?
@@TheMrFive i really wanna learn about how hes trading. There are some trend line and support and resistance on youtube but cant seem to get it.
@@DippySippy you got Tele, discord or kik?
that was incredibly insightful, would love to hear more from this gentleman Ettiene. 5 star interview.
Watched this one again... Professionals and so good info👍
One of the best interviews on this channel. 👌
Excellent video - excellent content, a feast of wisdom there. Gentlemen, many thanks to you both.
Omg i thought i was the only one who does risk management this way, cool to see a trader with a similar strategy
I dont understand a single thing of this risk management methods
I day trade off the 1-min and do my top down as well with several higher time frames to label setups every morning. I scalp from 0730 to about 1000 am NY.
I love how trading is very unique. each trader with his own tools.
Really amazing info, great to hear from a professional approach towards the markets - Thank you for doing this. So much Value!
Really enjoyed this interview; super practical and tactical!
Beautiful insights from a great experience. Very informative. Thx
great video this one, much appreciated!
This is the strategy and trading style that I have been searching for so long.
Thanks!
Enjoyed the interview! Thanks Etienne
Thanks Etienne. You've helped my trading career so much in such a short span
Best interview imo. More I watch this the more knowledge bombs I'm noticing. Measured swings and risk envelope are very interesting. Super simple yet actually trading it goes so hard against our natural psychology we can't take action on it.
Actually, it was the first time I found someone with a similar strategy to mine, I use many tools, deep chart analyses to only create a bias and to give me the right intuition for scalping, most of my trades are based on my own intuition I create during the trading session, even the stop loss I play similar to him, also I do hedging add margin to of set loss, the only difference is that I can trade the range like he explains but also, trading the Candle on the 15min chart, sometimes I do 2, 3, 4 trades in one single candle, can be very profitable, it was actually the best thing I did to my trade strategy which I developed all by myself and been very profitable ever since, I am glad to see someone doing similar, nice one body, I am subscribing 😎👍🏻
Could you expand more on this trading style of yours
He's definitely a master. Nice interview with a great and unique trader. 🙏
Epic interview Etienne! I thoroughly enjoyed this and got a ton of value out of this video
So happy to hear that!
Had to watch this again, magic
I love this, TY so very much. So glad health is better! I think the class for seniors he teaches is a brilliant idea, as a 57 yo retiree I am learning to trade to supplement my income. Defiantly not to get rich just using the market to live a little in my retirement. Thank you for this interview!
Love this methodology it hits most of what I like about forex.
This is the most important management style to manage your trades / capex / time / mantle, since you are sticking to a rules/timing. Thank you very much for you great tips.
Another classic by Etienne definitely watched all the way to the end here in South Florida
Thank you! Time well invested!
Nice work! Truth is spoken here! Thank you! Peace
Much appreciated, James!
Jean's a brave man given what he's going through, best wishes to him. We'll done Etienne 😎👍
Brilliant content, absolutely enjoyed listening to him🙏
JF, supper to see you again and in good health, seems like we trade the same, could be we have had some of the same mentors! Luv the podcast! Thank you.
Very glad to hear that! Thank you!
This was a great interview, thank you.
Glad to hear you're getting better
Hey JF!! So good to see you trading again. Here's a saying for your range-fading. "Flatery will get you everywhere"
Incroyable interview
For income, this trader’s method is the best method.
At the opposite of swing trading for sure, but it's a good method to bring in cash flow.
Thanks E great interview !!
Very glad you liked it, Bruce!
This is a good video.
Thanks. Scalping is primarily my mode .
With occasional momentum.
Learned a With this.
Pivots., swing bodies etc..
Time to get him back on; delve deeper into the Time and Price Cycles. Listening to his recent interviews, I'm also wondering if he's changed strategy.
Hello Etienne
Thank you for a great interview and I know JF is a great if not greater person as well as a great trader
Keep up the great work
I’m very glad you liked this interview!
Great interview and content, it make me to realize others opportunities are there while trading
Thanks for another great interview Etienne. We was on the apiary fund at the same time and this is whom I learned that risk management is the 🔑. Also, the ability to trade in ranging markets. His knowledge is next level. Just watched til the end... Thanks again!
Awesome! Very glad to hear!
Hi. You have learned from this guy personally ?
Do you recommend any books for what the guys saying ?
What a generous teacher.
This guy trades the same way I do. Great to see someone with experience that trades similar to me.
Good to hear! Thanks for watching!
I think to give a try from trend trader to range trader, Where can I learn range trading strategies?
Can you explain the 3 bar reversal ob the 1 munute time frame
I really liked this interview thank you !
I think he is the honest guy..
Thanksss Etienne!
25K views! this is the kind of stuff people want to see Etienne, myself included, thank you, please :)
Will have more in the future! Thank you!
@@DesireToTRADE can you tell me ,what trading platform he was using? Not broker, the trading platfrom?
Understanding the correlation of US bond yields and XXX/usd is a game changer. Thank you
Wow zero dislikes.
Amazing work!
My amazing man Jean Francois the pip killer
Absolutely fascinating man! 🙌
Thank you so much for your inspiration.
Jean is O.G. in the communtiy he shared a lot of information with me a few years ago great guy
Thank you for making this vid. I have similar trading strategy. On the funny side, I was ready for JF to say in a raspy voice "mmmm hmmm, I like mustard on my biscuits". JF, in the thumbnail you look just like Karl from the movie Slingblade.
really enjoyed listening to this trader
He's using the same platform I used with trade net.very informative video by the way cheers
"Hobby costs money, business makes money"
thank you for the insight.
The Dude just shuts everybody up : D

THIS GUY IS AMAZING HAHAHAHA
Kept laughing at his jokes he's got it figure it out !
I want to sleep like a baby too ! And it actually confort me in the method I'm trying to build up on paper trading and crypto atm.
Thanks Etienne ! Great content as always, I really enjoy your videos and I got your cheat sheet !
Thanks man !
Very glad you liked the interview!
This is my strategy but I don't give it a name for it. Thanks you!!!!!
This changed my life now. Missing part in mine trading filosofy.
What a legend!
I am looking to retire soon and have always been trading but love the learning process. Keeps the mind active.
That's from the best interview
Great video!!!
great interview
One of the most interesting trading video ever !!
Glad that was useful!
This man is the best I've come across. I would like him only to teach me. How can I get in touch with him? Thank u for this video
I learned something new today.
i dont scalp i hold for a few minutes. but i love his take on risk management. i've never used stop loss. thought i wouldn't find no one with a similar strategy since i never took a course and learned everything on my own. but his trading strategy is very similar to mine. i look at it different what he call a range. i just call it a trend within a trend. depending on what time frame your looking at will determine which trend you see. and i hold longer. i hold until i see a candle telling me to get out.
it totally makes sense. SL to protect account. not for a trade.
