About
My name is Cristian Burcea, and most people in the trading community know me as Crisbur. I'm the creator behind this website, and I’m excited to share my story and the insights I’ve gained over the years. My journey into trading began in 2013, with a degree in economics. Although I also enrolled in law school, I decided to leave when I started seeing real results from trading. By 2016, after overcoming numerous challenges, I achieved consistent profitability, turning my passion into a full-time career.In 2018, together with my long-time friend and business partner, Alex, I co-founded CFX, a project dedicated to empowering traders in Romania. Together, we created and refined trading systems designed to help passionate individuals in Romania develop their skills and strategies. Through CFX, I’ve had the opportunity to host hundreds of webinars, seminars, and podcasts, and had a national TV appearance in December 2018, where I shared valuable insights with a wider audience of traders.In 2020, I obtained a Level 4 Diploma in Trading & Financial Market Analysis from The London Institute of Banking & Finance. This course was delivered by Amplify Trading, a London-based prop firm I first discovered through the documentary Traders: Millions by the Minute.Today, my primary focus is day trading the Futures market, utilizing advanced platforms like Sierra Chart and tools like Market Profile, Volume Profile, Footprints, Cumulative Delta, VWAP and custom order flow triggers to fine-tune my strategies. While I also engage in long-term investing, primarily in U.S. stocks and ETFs, my true passion lies in scalping and day trading. I’ve dedicated countless hours to developing strategies and refining my use of Sierra Chart’s advanced features to maintain an edge in the market.Through this website, I share my accumulated knowledge, offering professional Sierra Chart templates, free educational resources, exclusive deals on prop trading firms, journaling software and more. For traders using Sierra Chart, I also provide custom solutions tailored to specific trading styles. Whether you’re just starting or you’re an experienced trader, I hope the content here helps you sharpen your skills and gain an edge in the markets.Thank you for visiting the site — I look forward to connecting with you!

Risk Disclosure
Personal Note:
Let me be upfront in my own words before we get to the legal language. Trading futures is hard. Really hard. Most people fail and you could potentially lose money. Nothing I share — whether it’s posts, videos, templates or strategies — should be taken as a recommendation to trade or invest in any specific product, service or style. Always do your own research and make decisions based on your own analysis. My results are personal and should not be considered typical or guaranteed for anyone else.

Take your futures trading to the next level with SierraEdge PRO – an institutional-grade chartbook built for precision execution, orderflow clarity, and high-confidence trade zones.SierraEdge PRO is designed specifically for Orderflow and Auction Market Theory (AMT) traders and includes powerful tools to help you identify key market levels, assess context across timeframes, and act decisively.📊 What’s inside the PRO Chartbook:✅ Intraday Market Correlation Dashboard– ES, NQ, RTY & DXY Overview✅ 30s Opening Range (ORB) chart with advanced Volume, Delta & Volatility Filters that generate Long/Short triggers when specific conditions are met. ORB triggers include plotted target levels directly on the chart.✅ Pre-Market Prep Chart (5M) includes HVN/LVN zones and automatic Fibonacci levels (Daily, Weekly, Monthly). Only key levels manually drawn from Market Profile, Volume Profile, and HTF VWAP DVA/PVA are transferred to the execution chart.✅ Execution Setup:📌 DOM with integrated Volume Profile & Delta Profile for market depth visualization – key levels like ORL/ORH and others are automatically plotted to provide deeper market structure context.
📌 Heatmap displays historical resting orders, tracking liquidity zones and market intent
📌 VOL Chart with Cumulative Delta Volume – built for execution, helps easily spot price vs delta divergences (absorption, lack of participation). Key market-generated levels such as RTH High/Low, O/N High, PDVAH/PDVAL, VWAP and others are automatically plotted to support context and enhance intraday decision-making.
📌 512 Tick RTH Chart – color-coded candles highlight exhaustion and momentum shifts. Includes market-generated levels and speed-of-tape highlights to visualize momentum.
🚨 ES & NQ MAGIC Triggers (currently in BETA) – these triggers provide additional market insights for identifying key entry points and price action triggers. Use them in the right context and at key zones, as they can reveal potential reversals, helping you capture shifts in market sentiment and momentum.✅ Orderflow Suite:📈 2 x Footprint Charts – Renko & Range styles for detailed orderflow analysis. For ES, Range (8R or 10R) and Renko (6 or 8 Renko) are recommended, with 15R also usable depending on the trader’s trading time frame.
