little Frankie Sinatra here to start the morning offer right I am your host as always here friendly the police officer policing Pips ready for Duty uh we are going to be kind of opening right exactly the way opened yesterday here on the NQ so we're going to just wait and see what goes on I did Hammer a idea in on the 100K that's kind of just lingering around even right now um I want to see if we can get the open to sell off quickly we are opening on our overnight highs kind of getting that set up right here right now so um if I do take anything live it's going to be over here right here in your face at the uh the 50k uh copy ear I have a few hopefully everybody made some good money yesterday we were pretty quick with uh with what we did we were very patient we waited for our levels we're we're opening on our overnight highs usually when we get that it gives us a little bit of something to work with for the open but right now we're kind of just continuing straight up so I'm going to get out of that uh 100K idea right there um we are going to see if Nvidia is going to roll looks like it's trying to sell through that low of the day uh pre-market um yesterday it's kind of opening right on yesterday's low so if it does open and go lower then this idea here of the wick of the high rotate down could be in play so good morning everybody over there good morning let is let us do not dumb [ __ ] today that's the goal right no dumb [ __ ] don't do dumb [ __ ] stick to your plans let everything play out um and we will see if we can make some good money quick easy and be done for the day move on we're on a nice little green streak here on the stream every day that we stream in the month of July we have been green so if you just stick to your plan stick to your levels you'll be just fine uh you can see S&P is not quite breaking through that previous High there and the NQ is still ripping right upside so uh we do have some you know the previous day not last sessions high but the previous day high before that is 298 so it's right there um we may get this cell right on the open so let's wait and see if we get it we may just hit right into it I just want to see what happens with that open okay way I'm going to let that 100K count do its thing if I can I'm going to try and hit this if I can right right off the Jump I'm going to sell this I'm selling it right off the Jump there we go we are filled hopefully it can get down deeper going to risk that top of this it didn't go fast enough there we go come on sell off sell through that low I tend to find when it opens on these highs that we can get this immediate sell off right off the bat catch our little move and then carry on so we're going to go ahead and secure it there at 140 right below that low the 100K is triggered in as well I'm working on trying to do both at the same time it's not as easy as it looks to do both at the same time uh the 100K is actually leveraged into two contracts now I shorted through the low so now we are over here I'm going to switch over to screen because I got stopped out on that on there but we're going to go nice and clean here on that 100K account see how much we can roll it over and we're out somehow just basically even uh because I did lose a 200 Banger before so trades there you can see we made 240 on that and now it's pushing upside so now we're going to be a little patient a little bit of Frank Sinatra to get us started I did it my way baby because that's how I do right off the right off the Jump there so we did a nice quick short right there if you took it you could have made a nice quick 20 200 on that uh tilt is 55% see if we can get up over that again the opening range is a little wide here so we're going to be watching it we're up 122 so far on the day nice quick little 120 bucks could have made a little more but I wanted to see if that thing would go down a bit more there you go Scrooge good job I like it maybe we'll go with a little more Frankie Sinatra to get ourselves going today Nvidia Wicked that low at 1109 and is kind of grabbing some liquidity and pushing upside so that's going to give us a little bit of uh a little bit of dancing around I think here on this so I'm going to be a little patient on it I know I you know I couldn't I could go a little aggressive and and take it again but no this is terrible what is this that is not correct let's go with a little bit of that right there everybody green right off the open you got to be you know like I said when we take those uh when we open right on that overnight high and we're still in a downtrend we're we're looking for stello side pressure also looking to stay inside of kind of a range you want to kind of be aggressive off that jump right there you open on the overnight High there's going to be a good likelihood that they're going to want to sell off right into Market open that's kind of just like like clockwork it it seems like it works almost every time so I'm going to be watching this if this tilt can get a heavier long and I can get S&P to pull back some then maybe this this uh overnight high if we can get over 300 would be really nice cuz then I could say okay we failed failed that break up but there's a heavy uh it's getting a little whippy right a little bit of whip action I wouldn't hate it again if we can get so Nvidia is bidding up I want to get over 300 First and if it can get up over that then we can get that failed 300 if not then it's fine I'm still going to try it one more time here let it roll over on me got it's like it got right into 300 there's a bidder right there at three at 41 41 lot there at 300 so maybe it'll draw into there and then sell off it seems like it wants to not get up over that opening Range High so I'm going to take the short through the open overnight High see if I can rotate back down once more that should go faster than that let's go downside come on now a little bit more a little bit more there we go I'm going to go even on it so now I'm even I'm going to let this thing either stop me out or run over all the way down there we go oh yeah another 160 secured let's see if we can get a little more out of it nope all right we're up 279 copy traded two times and it's it's only uh not even 4 minutes into the market session so if you've made some money so far this morning please don't hesitate to let us know Scott's up 700 time 2 Carlos is green Scrooge is up 142 we got a lot of green on the board here on a great Tuesday Morning um like I said I'm quick with my Trails I'm I'm getting rid of my my risk quick around my levels I want this to go fast I got Frank Sinatra in the background we got everything going as we would like it to be um you know I'm going to just maybe play this level until it doesn't want to give it uh I would love to see us like I said get up into that 300 area start to squeeze up if we can get up into the previous day high that's another great area for a short so you know anything in between that 300 and that 19 377 you should just avoid executing right because that's between the previous day high and the day before that high so Friday's high and Monday's high free us up 8 188 on the account very beautiful lots of green on the screens here in the policing Pips chat room I like to see it love to see it got to love it so now we just kind of sit on our hands right we've built that good little First Trade hit it out got our set up immediately now you got to wait see if something will set up right this doesn't appear to be wanting to reject again right you can see the Wicks the liquidity that's trying to grab there right now it seems like it wants to push and pressure 300 if it can pressure 300 probably squeezes up a bit you can see the snps is relatively strong compared and we've noticed that in the past when that happens this week last week that the NQ will either follow or drag it the other way so if NQ starts to dump off and the S&P could get below this blue line and hold then you can have a short on the S&P if that's how you want to roll it because right now NQ um the S&P is a little bit relatively strong right we we don't want to play we're playing relative strength and weakness here against each other um I think if you can get this up into the green line and you're still down on these lows then the rejection of the green on the S&P is 5525 could lead to some selling um if EG Q tries to catch up then this may linger around its overnight uh previous day high while NQ catches up to that previous day high so watch for those little divergences it could lead you to some good opportunity um I don't need big moves for my ideas to play out right I want to play in areas where I know I can get really good follow through right this could have followed through really really well we could have made really good money on that 100K we made uh a nice little 250 on that move and then got stopped out it's fine right I'm very good with how that worked out um and then this one as well right we just made another 279 basically across two accounts for up 600 Buck I uh we'll call it h 280 and 280 280 makes a lady if you know [Music] um I'm not making way more I'm not you know you made 140 I made 140 I just took a second trade I don't know if you took the second entry the biggest thing about uh it's a 280 makes a lady is a it's a saying in a in American culture for some heftier ladies like to it's a it's a joke um Scrooge comparison is the thief of Joy I've always heard it uh I've understood it to a point but um just try your best to trade your own account trade they call it trade your own book right understand what your balances are understand what your goals are what what do you want to do on a day right my go my trades are minuscule compared to some of the other people that are on here right like you know AK is making pretty really great trades every single day deck's making big big money on a daily basis right so you can't watch other people's p&l and be like man I need to make that right this is not what that's about I'm just here to give you good sound advice to allow you to build good habits and then just take advantage of it every single day right I'm I'm here to try and take advantage of the market every single day and I'm going to do it as best I can to the best of my ability and I'm going to do this on 100K so you can see it I don't want to do it on the 50ks I'm short on the 100K if it's going to whip me out it's going to whip me out but I'll take it and then I'll stop I'm going to add one at the low on the 100K the 100K I'm going to start working to leverage in a little if this is just going to be a retest break then we're going to be good uh we're going to be out I mean I think we should be okay right now it should go fast if it's going to go Nvidia looks like it wants to sell through that 11109 so this could lead us to some sells side pressure uh S&P is trying to pull back some so let's see if this and this uh Will Roll us over here or if it's going to bounce it's the opening Range High so it could bounce I'm willing to take a shot on it yeah it's fine it's out so that one get stopped so that's why I didn't take it here because it's dealing with that overnight high and you can see S&P relatively strong I wanted to try and give it a shot on that 100K see if I can get something out of it Nvidia may bounce from this 1109 it's hard to bounce from account to account so I have a tough time with that sometimes but realistically just kind of playing with those levels there uh I'm very close to considering locking out I want to see what happens with this here if we can get this to be one of the rising wedge type deals or if it's going to end up being being uh more of a accumulate and go longer well done there Ray lock out be done so you're going to like here's the deal you're going to lose and you're going to make money you're going to lose money if you don't have a plan towards what you're doing you're yes you're going to start to bleed out bleed out right but if you could just be patient wait for your timing low things to play out look at that hit off that overnight high now that's going to give you some confidence if this over uh previous day high on the S&P starts to melt off then maybe we get now good timing on the overnight High breakdown in the yes in the nqs right because we're relatively weak compared to the S&P don't feel like a loser Scrooge everybody goes through the hard times you know switching to new types of trading switching to different uh instruments little things here and there are going to be difficult in this world right um where you need to kind of just find those little nuances and everything where you can just build off of your own milestones and don't worry about what other people are doing because this is a very individual game hard patches come and go for everybody and the the what makes a Trader stick around long time is that mental fortitude of just don't quit right don't quit build go through those Hard Times build your accounts burn the accounts build those accounts and and eventually obviously you don't want to burn them ever want to burn them but it's going to happen especially early on but when it comes to this it's all about fighting your own mental game and building that mental fortitude and and understanding that you are going to be knocked down by the markets the markets are very very smart and if you start to slip a little bit it's going to take what it give you know what you give it right um so when it comes down to it just understand those dynamics of that it's you versus you as much as it's you versus the market it's you versus you mentally right if you have your A+ setup take it if it stops you out it's okay just don't get into the habit of Revenge trading and taking it again and again and again and again right um I want to see this if it's going to hold below 80 I'm going to stop it one more time because we are selling off there Nvidia is m through its low so I'm going to take the shot one more time through here I'm okay with risking what I got and it'll probably be the last attempt I take on the day here this should go fast if it doesn't go fast then we'll be out yep we're out so see like we take stops we take our uh if it's still valid I'm taking it one more time um we take our shots right we're going to take our losses we're going to take our wins I was up you know about 300 across two and then I just gave back a full loser so it's okay to to understand that that's kind of going to happen right I'm going to switch up to a little bit of The Best Is Yet To Come my trade there is valid so I'm going to take it one more time if it goes through it up 100 break even up 200 oh I'm short on the 100K apparently and I'm flat at 228 I forgot that I had an order out there so we'll see if it's going to play this is short now we're going to let it run a little Nvidia is really selling off pretty good uh I would like this down at least to 228 228 down to that vwap would be really a nice little move here on this 100K the other accounts are up two and change I'm now eligible for a payout uh with today's wins uh I shouldn't have got stopped on that one to be honest and this one should have wait I should have been in this up much higher but it's okay I totally forgot about this account so this is what happens sometimes um I did want to add there so it is okay that's fine I'm at even so we'll see what happens if this gets all the way down there we go nice little breakdown our overnight levels work like a charm baby let's get it everything works all these levels are reactive there we go get it give me that today give it to me today there we go all right back up I'm okay with that because I like that it didn't break structure I'm okay with taking my base hits and moving on you know that's a good little you know honestly I should have been in that a little bit up in that range but I forgot about this 100K account to be honest with you so it's all good and this one I should definitely not have been trailed out on uh I was wait I wanted to be a little more patient on that but there it goes once again there's the setup right at our level I told you if you if you have the setup again it's not fomo it's not Revenge trading if it's setting up correctly and maybe you get Wicked out um it doesn't hurt to hammer in one more time but don't get into the habit of just banging banging banging banging if it's not working right that's that mean reversion strategy right there A+ setup and it works like a charm exactly from overnight high right down the vew up that gives you a nice clean move there 40ish points um and then you could be done for the day there I mean realistically I don't want to really do much more I gave back a little bit and then I got back what I wanted I've already traded once twice three four trades a little bit more you know uh than I would like if if this would have hit off there then we would have been up nice like you know good little if we were up to 9 280 then another two and change you know put have been up like five and change 600 maybe more because I would have let this one breathe a little bit uh are you on top step X Scrooge if you're on top step X Zoom all the way out and it'll adjust uh the the vwap for some reason on top step X if you don't zoom out it only takes what you can see on the screen so take your yet if you're if you could see your vwb there scroll out as far as you can and and move over to yesterday so I have mine scrolled out all the way so I can see that 1700 number where it starts it starts at open at 1700 and then it adjusts so if you if you scroll all the way out to 1700 and zoom out you'll be able to see the entire vwap yeah that uh I've ran into that issue a few times so I get into the Habit that's why you'll see me get into the habit of scrolling all all the way out and you can be like why is he keep doing that that's why um unfortunately you know I didn't allow this to work as much as I would have liked but it's okay um I did it here as much as I could right down to the bottom of structure pretty much would have been stopped out there anyway um so we're good on that with this 100K I had this entry here um I wanted it up in here which I got it on the I'm up 120 on this today so I'm okay with uh just building a nice little green day on that after yesterday kind of chopping it up a little it's not a bad deal uh up 228 we're going to go and now that we're at vwap I'm in a no execution Zone uh I don't really care to execute here I'm going to get rid of the Sinatra for a little I don't want to I mean YouTube doesn't like it so it doesn't really matter I'm definitely stried after that but I don't care much Scott is 1128 and 1118 but your rebuild is on Thursday and I you still need 1,800 to pass your 200ks so Thursday don't worry about the rebu pretend it doesn't exist because if you only need about 1,800 to pass you're three4 you know 3/4 2/3 of the way to that 6K profit Target right so you know you made four of a six so yeah you're 2/3 of the way to passing if you have to pay one more rebu in the grand scheme of things that doesn't hurt you because if you reset now it's I mean if you just burn the account then now you have to try and get all those gains back again and then some right so if you were like only up a th000 and maybe you needed you know you you you lost some of your buffer I think you're yeah don't even worry about the rebu keep trading those accounts like they're gold trade them like you would if you were going to be funded I know you're oversizing a little bit um in order to pass but if you're up that much on those accounts don't don't do anything uh crazy just keep it going um I like the S&P short through there I'm going to take that um oh I can't it's already through it I love you screwed your back up green there you go there's a break of vwap for the NASDAQ we're up uh 228 on this account 223 on the other account the follower didn't get the best fills on the follow account but we were up about 280 we gave back some and we made it back so really right now doing a really good job of keeping this slope up and to the right that's all I want to see with this daily account balance we're almost at 3K uh we're at 2700 on this one we're at 27 44 you know it's off by $10 you know so just a day in and day out uh the win rate keeps increasing we got 30 wins and 14 losses you're going to still see those losers come in I limit my is really quick yeah jolts in N way to be aware of what's going on um for me that's why you know I just sit on my hands most of the time especially for me in the hourly close especially that 9:00 close um you know that's that's really where I kind of sit on my hands a whole lot uh if we if we're checking out the profit curve this is since we've been on stream I've done this every single day across both accounts there's no difference here just showing you what's going on in the account um could have still been short in this and held this into the to the vwap here and this would have been a much bigger day but you know to each their own I don't mind uh just getting back to where I was and then pretty much going to lock out this account I'll I'll mess around with the 100K since we're on stream still and uh look for some trades there uh the high probability trade about today was that we opened on the high right opening on the high really leads to a lot of that you know prear Market profit taking so what I like to do is take that short quick if it's going to open right there in a downtrend right if we're in an uptrend and we open on that overnight a high there's a chance that we squeeze up and we run but right now looks like it's the selling is continuing but just showing you what consistency can do for you these are not huge days yes I've mixed in some big days right here these this five pack right there qualifies you for a payout so we are qualified we have the amount of winning days that we need and I didn't force any of them in right I didn't need to make $200 I made 46 I made 120 83 you know some of these other trades you know I didn't I didn't need to force that in so I'm I'm totally fine with just letting this be organic taking whatever comes from me managing my trades how I want to manage them and I don't care if I catch the entire move or not if I can just get what I get and just consistently day in and day out only execute around my levels only execute when it's right um I'm G to be way better off than if I'm just hammering in middle of the range hammering in when I'm away from my levels and you know this is how you build consistency you do this on a day and day basis and you don't worry about what your p&l is really um you know let the trades dictate how much you're going to make for the day and then over time it'll just build and build and build and so see uh Scrooge if you look now my when you switch off the screen and back to it the vwap adjusts so you got to zoom all the way out and that's when it goes back back zoom out on these accounts and that's when it adjusts so there you go sitting on vwap sitting on to V I like this overnight level I will start trying to trade it here did not get filled oh I don't know that the jolts number I can't do that um I need 2965 to pass your combine I was so depressed about not making any progress yesterday but I had to remember I'm being hard on myself I've blown zero accounts I making back my losses I never traded Futures before on this combine and there's a lot of positive definitely a whole lot of positives there Scrooge it sucks to see every body else making money when you are not but you'll get there you guys have been doing this a lot longer than me and I need to crawl before I walk absolutely I think realistically when it comes down to it you like I said the comparison is the thief of joy and it's going to get you to a point where you're going to be like wow I mean these guys are making 10,000 $20,000 if you just go through YouTube people are making so much money they don't know what to do with if you go through Instagram right like it's very unrealistic cuz you're not there yet you're very very green I mean it takes years to even just try and figure out maybe a little bit of understanding what goes on and every time you figure it out it kicks you in the face um so the more you can understand yourself the more you can that would have been a really nice little CB there four Four Points Plus on the SNP so like I said if we get through this overnight High get into this here this Confluence added to my short confidence right Confluence equals confidence this right here bang that timed with this gave you that Prime opportunity to take that short there and be I know I got Wicked out of it really probably should have never got Wicked out because I was considering moving that stop just over the top of this but it is what it is I just risk my 200 bucks and just get right back in this is now heavy um we're going to go into this jolts number it'll probably whip us around get a little algo and then either continue on or you know rotate the other direction but um getting back to Scrooge like you have to take this journey on your own terms do your thing make sure you focus on building your mental game understanding that everything that comes down to it doesn't matter what your strategy is right I play this strategy because I know it works for me um there's people that do all these other names for things and you know ICT this and you know whatever other name I only know the ICT thing because it's just in your face all the time um but there's you know there's names for everything there's you know Head and Shoulders patter on this you know rise wedge that [ __ ] everything everything that is just has terms and people are going to Brand it on their own so they can make money selling the strategies and stuff like that but at the end of the day if you're doing this it doesn't matter what your strategy is as long as it's repeatable then you're going to be able to be successful and the only way you're going to be able to be successful is if you can beat what's inside of here inside your head you need to be the one to control your emotions when you take a loss you need to be the one that has a plan and sticks to it because if you don't stick to your plan you'll never have a quantitative analysis to say okay this actually works right because if you jump from um I'm for me personally like let's say I I'm instead of trading my overnight levels I trade away for them I trade at vwap or I'll trade like here because it says 180 oh that's a nice round number I'm going to trade that I don't really actually know if the strategy works because I'm trading away from levels I'm trading away from what my hard fast rules are and until I when I I i' I've learned over time that when I break my rules when I when I do something away from my levels when I do something away from the norm that's when I get myself into a completely randomized set of data and things are just going to happen it doesn't matter it's not going to it doesn't care um there's no Edge to it so you're just going to keep hitting buttons keep hitting buttons keep hitting buttons and there's no Rhyme or Reason it's just I feel like it's going to work I need to make money I need to pass the combine you got to get away from that get away from I need to pass the combine cuz just the combine is just something that's a barrier in your mind because realistically it's a it's an arbitrary number of profits and you're just trying to reach a very specific goal across the course of days as fast as you can because you think that if you pass it faster you're going to make money when you get into the funded account but what you're doing is by doing that if you've never passed a combine before and don't know your real strategy and you don't know you know the the what you're going to do when you come into a funded account you're going to go ahead and make that money as fast as you can I mean uh pass that combine as quick as possible you might get lucky one two days in a row three days in a row pass the combine and then you're going to not know what to do when you have it and you're going to just continue the the habits that you just did overleveraging all that because you're going to just be so used to those numbers you're going to be so used to that but the only way to keep these things long term is to do what I'm doing right now and just taking those base hits time and time and time again until your home run setup comes right this realistically to me I should have made more money today and could I be disappointed could I be foom moing in I could I mean realistically yesterday and today were very good opportunities for me to make bigger money but it's okay to just come in here and accept what you've taken and move on right because if you just dwell on the fact that you've missed um consumer confidence reported at 100 consensus was 99.7 97.8 and what was joltz jolts was 814 818 and consensus was 8 million why does it always show all of these I don't there we go 8.1 84 as opposed to eight so job openings has increased um consumer confidence is over 100 for some reason I think people are ridiculous to believe that it's great Market to spend money but they pull who they want to pull yeah I mean just try your best to separate everybody else and they're what they're doing from what you're doing right like I said I could I could be mad right now I could be upset that I missed more money right like or that I wicked out here instead of actually just letting my you know trade breathe a little bit more understanding that I was right still when I got stopped out you know just getting Wicked out but understanding that I my setup was still valid and going back into it I'm okay with that right I'm okay with taking that and you know maybe I trail out a little quick but realistically um you know I have to just take what I get and stick to my rules stick to my trailing rules and and move on and I'm eligible for a payout and over the course of July so far we're just just shy of 3,000 in profits and that's just building a buffer not oversizing taking base hits you know every once in a while you're going to catch this entire move you know a really nice you know piece of this and then you're going to just be like all right great um and then you're going to move on again like if it's big if it's small if it's uh you might be a little more excited that you made and actually manag this correctly but you're just going to be happy that you executed according to your plans everything was done correctly and you just kind of keep moving um for some reason my my opening ranges went away I noticed that uh they just want to disappear that's great completely tradeable ribs see some people if you go over to top steps live uh live they have a hard time trading this kind of market and for me I this was pretty clear a short I don't know if that's difficult for them to see because they strategies are different right if your strategy is something else not every Market condition is beneficial to every strategy so understanding that this is going to be difficult even for somebody who's done it for a really long time don't get hard on yourself when you don't get the trades that you get and and and uh you know have them work out this is a beautiful move I mean I'm really kind of disappointed that I didn't catch this whole thing but otherwise I'm content I'm up another basically 500 bucks on the day so if I can make $500 in less than 30 minutes every single day is that a problem I don't think so that's 2500 a week if you do the math if you can just do 500 a daytimes 5 day oh 500 a day time 5 days a week times 52 weeks 130k a year by just making $500 a day if you can't live off that that's interesting 162 quarter was a great level I was about to write that but then it touched it perfectly 162 quarters it is a nice area of Interest I think for sure yeah definitely some is there um I like that you're looking for levels I like that you're trying to do things where you can see you know key levels that are going to be reactive that's what I want people to start understanding that really that's all you need to do in this game is understand where price has been where it wants to go is where orders will be executed right and that's why a lot of these levels will work um I use a 30 minute hourly depending on how you look at it set of levels um over the longer term so if I find structure on those 30-minute levels I will start to build that usually they'll be confluent to the hourly four hours um I like we're intraday Traders I want to see intraday action you know people would say oh you got to use daily levels I use daily levels long term obviously um but in in the grand scheme of things we're like I said we're intraday Traders we don't really care too much about what happens on a weekly basis on a month ly basis on a yearly basis I really only care about what's happening right now today um I have no predictions I do I have ideas but the market doesn't give a [ __ ] about what I think so um it's great Scrooge find levels it's it's the most important part of this as far as like understanding strategy build your own strategy right I'm not here to preach that my strategy is perfect it's good and it works for me can I make it better I can absolutely make it better I could definitely increase my odds a little bit hold things a little bit longer but at the end of the day when I stick to what I have in my set of rules I'm successful enough day in and day out where I can now start to you know build in and build in and try and scale my my growth and that's when you start to see that exponential growth is when you start to understand that it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks it doesn't matter what anybody else's strategy is if you can take little pieces from me take a little piece from AK take a little piece from deck take a little piece from Caesar and you'll be just fine you want this coffee you sure I'm done with you sure you want it thank you what's up are they still sleeping no all righty thank you for the water understanding that you need to build it yourself is the biggest key to sucess right um some people have this vwap strategy it could be a break retest of the vwap or it could be now just a break and hold and run back up um I don't have a vwap strategy I know people do I think it's a very good strategy to have right there joltz didn't so joltz isn't a very important number I'm kind of bouncing a little bit here but jolts isn't that important it just is a number so it's something that data releases um it shows you know jobs and um labor market stuff and whatever um consumer confidence came out that's just something that's going to move the alos they're going to see a number it's going to move around it's going to dance and then it's going to come back in settle in and then the market player is going to come back in so just understanding that you're going to get movement around certain numbers they're not going to be the big Market Movers the ones that are going to move markets bigger is the fed nonfarm and CPI PPI those are the numbers that are really the big key ones everything else you know even if it is a red folder event just understand that those things are going to just move us a little bit alos are going to dance it around and then it's just another piece of the puzzle for the FED to decide if they're going to make Cuts or not but realistically they're not watching jolts and in a normal en Market environment jolts isn't important nobody cares about jolts all of these numbers also I do believe are manipulated so um they just to get what they want to get out of them don't take my word for it ask around but um yeah just when you uh I just heard Dakota on the top step uh YouTube he's uh on a combine practicing a certain strategy or whatever right he's got a live funded account he's he's one of their better Traders he's got a live account but when it comes down to trying new things if you're on a combine right now you've never passed right okay fine or if you're in multiple combines and you need to see like which strategy might work right if you have more than one combine set I told this to Ray last night I said if you want to trade some you're doing well on overnights have one account dedicated purely to overnight trading right those late nights you know 2 a.m. you know there's some good Market action on that you know Asian open whatever um uh London open stuff like that like there's there's times in the night that these Futures actually do react it's a lot slower you can see levels pretty well um you're not going to get these giant moves out of it but sometimes you do actually get a decent like last night at uh what time was that it found a low at 9:30 and and it ran all the way to this morning so really there are opportunities but have that one account for that nighttime strategy that overnight strategy where you're not actually uh you know using your main account right if you're going to test that so if I'm going to go ahead and test other strategies I'm going to use not this account right I'm not going to use the my funded accounts I'm going to go into a combine I'm gonna see if I could pass a combine see if that strategy works because I want to let's say I want to add oil right um I have two more combines that are going to come back to me um I've been testing things in those accounts but you know next week I'm going to get back into another 2 50k combines and I want to test oil and I want to test gold and I want to see if I could pass combines with those strategies so I could add those plays in and then when I pass those accounts maybe those accounts will just be purely dedicated to oil and gold right so having that kind of play out uh with the the funding companies now allowing you to have multiple accounts allows you to kind of split your risk across so if you have an account for this strategy and an account for that strategy you can kind of see your Equity curve moving up and to the right in all these accounts uh you know you might not be able to compound it in one but it's okay because if you're You're Building those other accounts with that strategy you know it works and technically it's still your money you're still able to pull it once you hit off on those targets so um reasonably speaking I think having the the wherewithal to stick to one strategy in one account and build off of it go go go go go if you have multiple accounts and you're just going to copy it or whatever you're going to do uh in that sense just do it that way you know that's fine but if you have multiple ideas things that are you're working on um and something's actually working and you're building off that you know in here I think really if you haven't ever passed a combine you should only have one and you should just be focused on a singular strategy and like I mentioned to Ray last night I said i' I've mentioned it in here a couple times where you just go you know tonight if you had a good day if you had a bad day today and just you know people say you got a journal you got a journal you got a journal but what you really need to do is reflect on the day um if you have a piece of paper you don't even have to keep it right just take that paper write it down say I did well today doing this I felt the Tilt here I didn't uh I didn't give into the Tilt I didn't give into the fomo um all these things just write down things that are going to be really strict and then if you find that there's multiple things that come up every single day either sticky note it on your monitor or write it on a piece of paper or have it like as your background and your your computer screen and say here are my main strict rules to keep this account going long term rule number one is don't do dumb [ __ ] and that's always rule number one and if you are uh like me and you want to grab yourself a don't do dumb [ __ ] t-shirt don't do dumb [ __ ] mug we got that for you we built that product line just for this stream right don't do dumb [ __ ] mug shirt and obviously the inspirational bulll here he is uh just subtly telling people to don't do dumb [ __ ] he's got the don't do dumb [ __ ] right there on his mug so if you are uh in here and every day you're you're understanding that we're number one rules don't do dumb [ __ ] number two is what are those dumb things that you do right what is the dumb [ __ ] that you do number one don't do dumb [ __ ] number two or number one a dumb [ __ ] is uh I trade pre-market and I don't understand the price action so I'll stop trading pre-market I'll only trade when the Market's open number two uh I oversize so I'm going to force myself to either cut my size in half or really limit my risk okay number three and just go down the list and say okay I feel when I go on tilt I feel my ears getting hot I feel my hands getting sweaty okay that's my tilt signs what do I do when I feel those things do I control my emotions do I give into them um do I only stick to three levels or four levels for the day and I only trade around those four levels even though this looks great in the scheme of you know can I go short here can I go long here I'm in the middle of zones I don't execute when I'm in the middle of zones so add that that into your little list and then just keep that as your background until it just kind of always is an everyday thing right I've fallen into habits as well right so every single day that I've been green every single day that I've traded this entire account I wake up in the morning I do the same thing every single morning uh you know I wake up go to the bathroom brush my teeth all that fun stuff I go outside I breathe fresh air if it's raining if it's sunny if it's hot if it's cold I'm going outside I'm taking those breaths I'm just getting away from computer screens phone screens obviously I brew my coffee so I take a step back I brew my coffee first and bring and then I go outside uh today I actually brewed my coffee outside so that was fun so brew coffee have some coffee be outside enjoy the air you know focus in my mind allow those just deep breaths it's not that long you know I get up the nice thing about trading Futures and for me I only trade the NASDAQ and I have the S&P level it takes me like 5 minutes to get my levels squared away because I have my longer term charts where I have everything built up I can use those I can manipulate if I need to be on here a few more minutes early if I need to set something up in the Stream or whatever I only need a few minutes so I go outside I get up at 7:30 whatever do all those things I get outside before 8 I spend you know anywhere from 1015 20 minutes outside just focusing in I take some deep breaths I just tell myself that I'm going to stick to my my plan I'm going to stick to my levels I'm going to stick to my setups once I feel like I've gotten that that nature into me I'm I'm just getting some sun in my face and then I come back inside I set up the stream I go through my levels and then I'm ready for the day and I'm not giving myself the opportunity I don't also come to the charts at 8 you know 7 8 because I don't want to be tricked into some of these levels to trade um I don't like to trade pre-market in the Futures as much um depending if there's a 730 number I like a something like non Farms um you know you see that uh nonfarm comes out at 7:30 uh I may come and watch that I like to not execute on that I just want to see where price ends up and then I like to chart some of the before a non-farm after nonfarm number and then play some of those levels during the day so they'll add to my levels but if they align with the overnight high low and stuff like that if they become the overnight high and low then they're just part of it anyway um so that's what I like to do you know just build a rhythm in the morning do something that just keeps you on track gets your mind to that point where you're focused in on what you're going to be doing and then go on with your day right um I'm going to go ahead and lock out these 50ks yes lock me out dismiss I just secured another qualifying winning day if I really wanted to I could withdraw 50% of everything I've made so far that would be 273 4 60 so half of that I could take out I'm keeping my buffer of 2,000 at least um I'm going to see how this week ends up and then I'm going to request a withdraw at the end of the week so you'll be able to see what I take I'll go through that with you guys when I do it so we are qualified there um now that we have this account I'm going to do that all squared away like I said uh 228 on this one 223 I think on this one yeah so we were up about 280 before right I said 280 makes a lady uh we we were up 280 we took one loss on that uh unfortunately we got Wicked out on this somehow actually still don't even know how that Wick happened I think it this bounced and popped whatever uh I wanted to be up over this but without any other reasons um and ended up taking it again stopping out right at the 270 is let's just give you an exact number stopped at 272 right there 272 just over this trend line crack once this broke clear um rotation down right into vwap if I was just slightly more patient on it I would have been fine but we saw how it reacted before uh we made our first really good trade there took another one there and we took the third time through um third time is the charm it seems like today you can see this kind of wedging up here Nvidia is trying to curl back up it rolled all the way down close to 10733 so it's curling up from there um there's really not a lot for it to be grabbing on to so if we can roll back further down this continues let's see if this 100K account can make any more money today we're up 120 on it basically back to even on that account the last two days I've just kind of been work working through things with it uh I'm going to give it a shot down through the vop maybe no I'm going to stick to my levels and let it do its thing I haven't been back to a level yet so we'll wait for a previous day low or an overnight low to come in uh tilt is 62% to the long side all right if anybody's got any questions comments concerns ideas I mean every single day we've been on here we've called out really good trade locations if you are trading maybe a little smaller or if you're trading um you know with a little bit more risk or you know you got a bigger buffer size you're able to really capitalize on some of these bigger pieces of this move for me personally like I said I Trail quick I get out I take my base hit and I move on I could always you know go two to one and just click it set up 400 bucks you know here $400 there um but I I like to be able to maximize my Runners if I could um realistically here I mean I wanted to get this a little bit further down I got slightly tighter than I should have on that trail but it's you know no big deal especially after getting SL Wicked out here maybe I adjust a little bit just kind of talking through it for myself the adjustment on this here for the um the stop location being just over these Wicks so I could have just been in no problem and then gotten that roll over without being stopped out right we got Wick in Wicked out and then I I re-entered right on that candle so we were able to do that um could have went minute by minute and then been stopped out basically only a few more points deeper so it's not like we got more on it but just allowing that first move to play out cuz then we would have been up instead of you know we would have been in that three grand area that three grand territory um for the account so I'm going to let this week play out see where I'm at at the end of the week and then request the payout tomorrow's the last day of July maybe I'll just do it you know month to month request the payouts month to month and allow you know August to be its own animal um because it is really that's kind of how it works right month to month to month you got to see how profitable you could be over the long term ah anybody have anything questions comments concerns movie choices yesterday we talked about Gladiator 2 possibly coming out so that's going to be interesting I mean not possibly it is coming out um gotta have to see it are they going to ruin it them they can't ruin number one so they have a really uh big shoes to fill House of the Dragon did the new episode come out yet what days do they come out Sundays I saw the LA I think I saw season finale is Sunday okay I gotta watch that one I'm up to uh whatever that last one is I think I've seen I think we've seen all of them there's only six episodes this season so far or seven is there more than that am I missing one seven eight is the finale so yeah I'm pretty sure I've seen the eight there's a Friends movie coming out that's interesting are they going to have the original characters minus Chandler ah Chandler Funeral is the focus that would make sense that'd be a good one this does look like it wants to get heavy maybe it could push into this low of the day here you can see S&P is trying to do it NASDAQ not quite there yet Nvidia also trying to roll some I think we have down to 155 that was the number yesterday 155 that I was talking about could Wick that I've got you that would be good to see actually especially after seeing some of these other C characters like playing other things oh absolutely absolutely Scott no doubt about that you know playing some of these other charact and then like Ross literally can't be anybody but Ross so he gets so mad about it so it would be funny to see them come back and do it uh S&P is leading us down through the the support low and Q is diverged a little bit so probably look to see if it catches up to like get down to that 155 um could take that um that 200 level acting as that resistance there's a basically a triple top there at the uh vwap bum you broke another trend line like this is really like when you're in a trend and these breaks happen this tends to work and like I said we're in a downtrend this is exactly what I was looking for up here um I did not front run it I waited for our overnight High to get play um the reason that the trend line crack is so consistent is because the you know what is happening realistically with price is it's it's not necessarily that it's sitting on that trend line but mathematically it's just buyers are coming in at a higher price higher price higher price and then when they give up that buyer gives up doesn't want to buy that high anymore then when it gives up you know that buyer is no longer there so then it has to to just release that pressure valve which gives that that little push down does it have to follow through no it doesn't like this little push here didn't have to follow through but when you get back up to it are the buyers still going to be there that's why it likes to retest it wants to see are the buyers back no they're not back okay we're going to sell it off again so it's kind of just a a nice little Dynamic of where price you know oh buyers are here now oh buyers are here now oh buyers are here now oh buyers on b or if it's the other way around if sellers are here sellers are here sellers are here bang bang bang okay we're going to give up is the seller there oh yeah the seller is still there and and we're not going to fight him anymore and roll it over so you know it's kind of a mathematical equation it's kind of clear price action as far as like it's not the trend line that's doing the work but also then plus the trend line developing more people are waiting for that break on one side or other or the bounce on one side or the other so there're they're waiting there for it and now retail is very large now with the Advent of internet technology you know these are things that people look at this is what people see and it's visual it's easy to see it so people are going to be like I'm going to react when that happens and so they're reacting to that break um sometimes the market makers will want it to go the other way so they're going to feed into it sometimes they want it to go back the other direction so false breakdown rotate back up you know they're going to seek that liquidity down here to rotate it but if it's heavy and it's it's continuing and it's breaking it's just a good area for them to know that they can just continue it on because people are going to hammer in there um yeah let's see what else is going on here oh you can see the opening range left above Delta flattened out price trying to make new lows here Delta didn't quite make a new low so if we do wick this Low Bottom here at 164 and you start to see an aggressive buyer step in this could be a trap for a long rotation um but if you start to see Delta catch up and it gets aggressive down through that low then potentially that's where you will um there's a 65 lot at 165 so uh sitting right there um you'll see the the aggressive buyer is is more likely here it seems like you can see he's stepping in buyers are stepping in Russell curling up getting a little bit of a pop from support there you go holding that low the rotation from that level there is another 600 bu like these are very it looks like very tight little moves but if you play these breaks you know you're grabbing 600 500 $600 on these trend line breaks so it's not like I'm I don't have that right now today I have a nice couple $200 winners and I moved on Russell's now crushing up right into the opening range caught a really nice bid is price going to rotate out of these Mega caps and into small caps that's the question are we rotating now are we going to push out of the nvidia's NQ out of apple out of microsof soft what's the earnings today the earnings today is go to my right up and you can take a look today is Tuesday we got AMD Microsoft Starbucks after market hours so these things could drive you today AMD could give indication of where Nvidia is going to go so right now Nvidia is selling off AMD currently chopping around just basically probably in anticipation of this earnings um but amd's guidance is going to give some AI guidance is going to give some chip sector guidance obviously Microsoft is Microsoft it does its thing as well it's second largest name second to Nvidia so we are doing the same thing kind of just chopping in a zone so watch these names after market hours see what their price action tells you see if it's going to allow you to make a decision on you know is it going to you know Crush lower is it going to you know Spike higher does it revert back to the mean what's going to happen with those numbers as we do get the earnings right so understand that that's a thing that could really be a mover for this week like I said there's tons of opportunity this week we've already capitalized on it two straight days um like I'm cool with taking my 200 and running today um I I would have liked to have allowed this maybe you know after I caught that first one b and the second move honestly um that stop right there could have allowed it to just breathe a little more and would have been just fine on just adding to the winners today but we didn't so it's all good just kind of reflecting on how to make it a little bit better of a trade moving forward next time right just broke low of the day is it going to continue on to previous day lows or is it going to turn around right here Nvidia has down to 10624 it's looking to break low of the day at 10742 so if that does give up that will be 10630 is the low that it's going to Target video didn't crack low of the day yet S&P is sitting right I mean n NASDAQ sitting right at that 160 mark uh refresh your browser it has a lot to do with your internet at times if your internet gets uh a little wonky it does do that so that's another thing I want people to understand is if you are trading be be very aware of your technology uh if you start to see freezing if you start to see your computer like well I knew when things would start to go a little bit off in my technology when I was it was so weird um when I was trading with T3 I think I really probably should have took steps back and understood that I was getting stuck in positions and stuff because the internet at my parents house at that time wasn't perfect I was running into a lot of issues because of the cables outside which we finally learned that that was the issue but um if you notice things start to happen like I noticed that YouTube would freeze first and then once I noticed that YouTube would freeze because I'd have music on or whatever in the background or I'd lose connection to our our room in on the desk we'd call it the the pro desk at T3 uh I would lose a little connection there and then my feed would start to seize up be acutely aware of your technology if you notice any of those things happening don't execute trades figure out what's wrong with your technology first and then get back to it if you want to but make sure that things are correctly working um put that into your rules if you notice that uh price is acting funny if TOP Step X is doing some weird things it's okay to not trade but you have to be aware if you get stuck in something or if something happens unfortunately yes it's your responsibility um if it's really a a major problem with the with the broker a lot of times they make it right TOP Step t to make things right pretty much every time if there's a widespread issue that causes major disturbance in their in their platforms so they will make things right um it is helpful if you're in a live account and The Brokerage has a mistake then maybe you have some uh recourse to work with but at the end of the day it's up to you to understand your technology it's up to you to understand if things are going a little bit weird to not execute anymore do not tick those trades do not do not play with your platform right the only single day I lost this entire month not that I didn't lose trades but the only losing day I had this month was the very first day I had these uh not the first I had these accounts in here but we had a hurricane and then there was the weekend and we lost power and we had nothing on the eth the ninth I started to regain power I started to regain internet so I started to get in here and get on the charts and I would lose internet I would get internet I would put be on my phone I'd be off my phone and I you know that's the profit curve that you get right you take that initial loss you build back you build back take a little bit of a loser then I buil back to green I broke that rule where I should have just locked out like if I start red and I go right to green and basically even that's a good day um if I start green go to Red a little bit or I go down and back up if I still have the appropriate setups I could still do it but if I go red to Green like this my rule pretty much says shut it down especially breaking the rules of um adding to my journal traded on a day where I had no power traded on a day where the hurricane created technology issues should not have executed positive was locking out after that loss for a small so that's what you know good with TOP Step X they have a journal platform built in you can do you can type notes into these days that you've made good trades bad trades you know stuck to your plan didn't stick to your plan um I've basically stuck you know to my hard fast rules every single day 16 17 24th those three days I did not trade uh the 24th I was on the charts right but I just had no good A+ setups so I noted it right um the 16th and the 17th I knew I had training I knew I wasn't going to be on the computer I made it a point you know to make these green days for myself so that's what I like to do I like to kind of just notate all that definitely making its way to load lower levels so you can start to watch the previous day low overnight lows watch those reactive levels um the reason those are reactive is because you know during our session is because they were reactive on the night they were reactive the day before there's a decision to be made there if we can get into that 5479 5481 in the snps then that's maybe when you get the bounce so my anticipation with how this price action goes is with the melt through here uh you probably don't stop at the previous day low because S&P is probably going to want to catch up so you're going to want to wait for this up to get to that overnight low and then see if you can get any sort of set up around that uh 9:35 we've been open for about an hour checking my emails making sure everything I don't want to work it so watch this previous day low see if we get any reaction around it likely I mean nvidia's got down to 10624 so there's I think we break this you get something that happens here maybe you get a reaction out of it then it comes through it we get into that if we can get that lower wedge pattern and the S&P can then get into here then you can wait for that bounce through and up that's kind of what I would like to see back into the vwap which probably will be somewhere along those lines right there so that's what I want to see happen for that to be sort of my A+ type of setup right I think just the depth that the S&P has not gotten back to yet right it does have some support right here at 5492 and 5487 5487 could act as uh a bounce point so watch that level as well but I think you get through previous day low without much issue get into overnight lows Nvidia needs to get down to 10624 and it needs to tell you if it's going to make new lows right Nvidia here it needs to get to this white dash line to give you timing better timing for our trade right and then you can see my longer term chart here my 30 minute very nice short from the high of the day if anybody is one of those longer term Traders I give you great levels to kind of work with I mean seems like they've been working now um a little bit smoother a little bit longer term moves so I may look to hold a little bit longer you know my my my trailing strategy was really um it's good in certain cases and then and sometimes I don't really get big moves but like I said the full rotations are likely when I when I talk about them um and I'm okay with how I'm managing them I'm not too upset they say you can rename accounts I see you I see you watching these eyes time equals money this is going to end up being a really really great short from that high up there if you did execute on this uh like I said I trailed out took my money in theory right want to get that down to vwap a little more then you get this retest I don't have middle this is middle of a range I don't execute middle of the range stuff I don't execute round view now we're at our next area of Interest where I want to see bounce plays I want to see rotation I don't think that we've seen enough um you know we're in a longer term range over the last few days I'll call it uh from last Thursday till today I don't think you're going to expand out of this range too much I mean we could go well I mean a lot lower we can go down into the 19,000 to kind of still stay in this range but I think tight inside range type days will be um they'll be around because until tomorrow with the rate decision but more so that they're going to hold rates tomorrow and then guide for the next cut um potentially in September was what they said unless they surprise cut tomorrow then that's when you're going to get that that bounce um Nvidia still hasn't made its way down to that 10630 level it's almost there they may be front running it uh you see this reaction perfectly bouncing off of the previous day low so we're holding the yesterday's range as I mentioned I think we can get a bounce like we have then it flushes through and then snps can catch up get down to their overnight lows and the previous day lows will'll be into that overnight low area maybe we can chop around a little bit down here create a little bit of a wedge and then start to rotate off of that overnight low and into highs um I have locked this account out I have locked out the 50ks we have secured another you know 500 bucks on the day so I'm not too uh upset at my days right we're not looking to go crazy home run home run home run I'm copying everything what's up Stan graa the graba is here everybody loves a Stein Grabber Stein I need to get this yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I need to get this down to the overnight lows yeah um then I can look to see if I can rotate off get my divergences um if s smps just curls off of here and runs up then so be it you know you just didn't get to your level if you can stick to that where you just stick to your levels and don't execute away from them you limit your risk you start to set the odds in your favor as long as you can keep the odds in your favor every single day you can take shots at them you can allow price to move the way you think it's going to move you could get better hypothesis out there more educated more limiting of your risk and you're able to just build your account slowly over time right like I said i' I've been just Bas hitting the [ __ ] out of it and I've made uh you know Just sh I have three grand in this month of July on one account so we're up six grandish across the accounts in a month so if you could do that times three times four times five accounts it doesn't take much if you can pass and copy trade five accounts make three grand over five accounts you do yourself a little do yourself a little favor and and secure a little extra income for yourself it doesn't take much $200 a day hell yeah welcome welcome to the morning live session 200 account dollars times five accounts that's $1,000 a day times five days a oh 55 days th a day times 5 days a week times 52 weeks I think you'd be very happy person with the $260,000 extra salary making $30 making $200 a day those are the the average days there's going to be bigger days there's going to be smaller days but on average you're going to be making around if you could just take these base hits day in and day out and they're going to let you copy trade them on five accounts why why not why would you not just take your base hit let's go Stein graa passing one working on your second like I'm working with three right now obviously I can't copy trade the 100K so if you if you want to copy trade all of your your accounts across them make sure they're the same size um so I can only do 50k times 2 I have my 100K that I do separate stuff on that I'm kind of like just at even with that account um I wanted to work on longer holds which I didn't end up taking on this one which I could have um but it's all right I forgot about the 100K account to be honest with you and there was an order sitting on there so I still make stupid mistakes just like everybody else um I think this is still it I mean I don't think I'm just going to let it tell me what to do but my thought on this pretty much is exactly what's going on right we rolled into here we found that support here we bounced we can rotate through we need to get back down here into this Cloud for me to even think about executing obviously you got a higher low right there could start to wedge up and out give a we have a nice Delta push strong Delta um we're kind of sitting right on that lower band of vwap that's another thing that's going to support us right there is that lower band right there that that's holding that held yesterday it's holding today uh we going to just be patient you got a wick off on that Delta U let me see if there's any larger order sizes overhead we got a 40 lot nothing big nothing huge it disappeared it's like just flashing here and there it's just showing size and disappearing same on the bottom so there's Algos coming in and out flashing like 4050 Lots trying to move markets in directions trying to like what what happens with it is it flashes some size it pulls the pulls the order it flashes some size it pulls the order um that's kind of like a high frequency bot pulling and going trying to pull price in a direction and then once they start to see price it's more of like a teaser once they start to see price pick a Direction go that way then they'll throw more size on the book it's very uh very calculated right so if you don't go out of your way to really set up what your Edge is you're going to get taken advantage of by these Bots by these alos by these you know not even by the big Bank players or anything like that the alos are going to just throw teaser orders out there that's when you're going to start to see these Wicks and the the movements they're going to get quick um the more you watch the charts the more you watch the level twos the more you see the time and sales you know every day that you build experience on the charts you're going to develop a relationship with what you're trading so you're going to understand the behaviors when there's something that's weird right when when price does something like this and it gets Wiggly right and you know that's the only way I could describe it it Wiggles um and it gets faster but it gets manipul it looks manipulative right it probably is it's more of like a is there is there interest up here they're teasing orders they're just throwing something on a book seeing if it'll hit seeing if price will pull that way and then maybe moving it the other direction you have to understand that that's going to happen because you're not a robot um the robots are doing that the the alos are just clicking buttons and they're throwing money into the market they're throwing money out of the market they're making money on very minute moves but also at the same time you have the bigger players who when you know that those positionings are going to happen like yesterday I talked about it on my Instagram I talked about it on stream this one right here I'm going to talk about it real quick because I think it's super important where we got into this level right there um this was right around the previous day low or the overnight low which was like right around here we pushed in I said that this wedge pattern here I'm going to talk about it because I think it's very important to notice right you could see this is an interesting thing this is what I like to play I play it on both ends at my levels once we cracked above this line right here you crack above here you can see that manipulative Wick up above and then comes back and then sells off this Hard Sell Off happened really really fast but also told me a story that we trapped Longs here and that there were definitely if there were going to be stops the stops are going to be down below here so what this bigger player was doing was once this wedge occurred and they got people to get long maybe they threw out some orders out here to kind of get us up there or maybe the alos or whatever it pushes up here it traps people long over that previous high so you're now trapped long once you do that the most logical obvious point where they're going to put stops is below structure so that the bigger players they have the order books first off so they'll start to see once we got long here did all those orders come in here okay yes now there's stop orders those stop orders are sell orders so what does this need to do it needs to sell down here and the only way they're going to buy bigger size is to accumulate those sell orders from us from whoever is trading that pattern so they accumulated all those sell orders to buy up what they wanted to buy and then they immediately rotated it right back once you got back above I said if you get above this area again it's going to squeeze because now they're true long is actually long anybody who was buying here before might be buying again right there's a lot of interest here but also at the same time if these people are selling here now people who are like oh it broke low of the day I'm going to tra chase this sell their stop is going to be above that major structure level right so if their stop is above that major structure level now you have a ton of buy orders here that are stop orders and you're going to get people who are entering new Longs right so you have a lot of buying interest which squeezes this up so if you see something like this this kind of setup where you get that trap it's like a double trap I don't know how to explain it but watch for something like this to happen again that's when you know it's more of a big play um probably going to be a longer move push you up and be very clean to the upside or whatever Direction it's going to go because that's the the thought process behind it right so if you start to think in terms of thinking like a big player thinking like a big fish understanding that there is more to what they're doing behind the scenes and then understanding the little micro movements those micro movements might be those alos right so you can kind of see the difference between maybe what's an algo and what's a market mover what's a market maker what's a what's a hedge fund um if you start to say really big size on the book are they trying to pull orders there um or are they going to try and you know is it 100 lot to get people to come down here and say I'm going to front run it and then sell it further or is it 100 lot here that truly wants to buy in this front front of line on the book and wants to get up ahead of it you know that might be just a dumb player you know they don't want to most of the time they want to hide their orders as best they can the bigger bigger big big fish right um a lot of equity stuff they do stuff in dark pools so you're not going to see a lot of that stuff uh but in the Futures Market the book is the book right there I'm sure there's some back door dealings but you know you're going to see it uh this is a 70% long if it ticks up a little bit more you could watch for that trap to happen here right you could trap this um get people up and try and get them long you know with that 70% tilt that is retail um so you are going to start to see maybe a break above 160 stop these people out or if that 160 Wick is going to be the Trap then you watch for this to either hold this level you know get right back above it and then rotate through here push through that and then get down to our overnight low then we can maybe get the S smps to finally catch up you know that's the kind of move I want to see in order to get involved in this you know you see this wedge out you see that happen you see this break you see that break you know that's that's a good opportunity to get short to down into here because you got that manipulation there um but overall you know it worked once it worked twice will it work a third time so close to the previous day low Nvidia still hasn't quite got to 10630 so could be interesting 10630 still needs to get tagged this could be another breakdown here and then rotate through and then you can have your overnight levels playing middle of the range in the snps on the previous day low in the NQ Nvidia still hasn't made it to 10630 so we're just shy of it but it's trying to break that low again so if you get that low of the day crack then the and Q probably follows there's the breakdown of it does it hold if it breaks and holds below 130 you get them push through the previous day low maybe you play the S&P to catch up does that work does the short through the previous day low get you to the overnight low the hold of that I'll do this on the 100K I'll see if it works oops all right wanted that to actually break it didn't actually break it it held it see if it breaks is that going to hold you want to take that break down to that first piece at 130 see if it'll go see if it'll break through here or if it's going to hold I think with the S&P is still so far off from its uh overnight lows I think we do have an opportunity for it to get through but at the same time this previous day low is showing some strength here still have actually a pretty heavy Delta hasn't made it you know it's higher low in the Delta higher low in price see if Delta will now start to get aggressive or if price is going to drag it back up see Delta not following through with that buy the Market's still heavy still a selling Market at the moment could be a nice bounce and then a rotation all the way back up trap like I said that trap type play snps still not playing still just not doing that so we're going to cancel that order this 100K account just bouncing back and forth on it kind of trying to work different types of things into this 100K around these levels this is holding let's see what the Nvidia is doing Nvidia got to the 10633 Mark so that's why that bounced this might go here B yeah we're down on the 100K I'm done with that don't want to mess around with that much more down a little bit on that account all right we're going to stick to just this one here overall like I said just try to stick to your PL let this thing set up a little bit more and go from there that thing bounc right off of that 10633 Mark still working on seeing if this so get through here this low sweep it get into here because this S&P needs to do the same thing if that would set up that's what you want to do let's see when do these rebuild I think they rebuild the end of the month so I'll start to work those like I said uh for anybody who wasn't here earlier the new combines I'm going to try and work oil and gold on potentially so those will be just dedicated to those to see if those types of things will work sticking to our strategy here every single day on this account just that steady up and to the right nice clean profit goal we are eligible for payout we're going to see what comes tomorrow and maybe either Wednesday since it's the end of the month we'll just do the payout for the month of July I'll do that tomorrow if not we'll do Friday for the payout um the trying to bounce multiple accounts around for me is a little I always get myself into a little bit of a hole with the other accounts when I do that but I still have plenty of room on that 100K it's down about seven uh on it so just trying to this is the 100K count here this is when I did good and then I started to get into a little red streak because I'm trying to bounce into that and try a little different things um there's still plenty of draw down on this that I have no questions about but these are the other two uh the 50ks that are copying oh excuse me we're almost at the level from the fifth right before longterm run up in the NQ looking at the one hour absolutely yeah we are um from the fifth that's why I use these levels if you see right here I do have that as well right there that's what that white line is that white dotted line there is that basically that fifth area where we had that first breakout retest of it that 18979 is that breakdown um I think realistically that 117 that 120 area that we held yesterday this is that breakout point there that 117 that cluster there so that's what I look for in that chart uh looks like I think we're breaking that low now finally so I should have waited a little bit longer like I said I just didn't uh I caught that short right at the bottom I got bottom ticked on it and then it rotated out and then I stopped out on it uh but let's see if my thought comes into play here now that we're in here let's roll this out get my vwap correct because vwap likes to get adjusted weirdly if we can get snps down to 5480 is uh it might not get all the way there it might only get to 5485 because of the support here uh 5487 uh but if as long as it gets down into that area right anywhere between here you start to see a bounce you start to get this cleaned up you get a wick down below maybe get down into let's call it yeah previous day low right there previous two days ago low was 19,41 so we'll call it 19,41 as the failed breakout point if it rejects that area right here right in that zone if price comes into here does that and then starts to work its way back up this is where you're going to want to see that push that failed breakout if it's going to continue down you're going to get through that lock it out up 158 for the day well done Scrooge good job I love when people get back to green do their plan lock themselves out do do their job um I do think that the the drawn up idea that I did before is still playing out that that thesis is still correct if you can get down here um then the Nvidia sweep of that new low that it made right there at 10633 didn't quite get to 10630 so if it could sweep through that 10630 grab some orders you're going to see this thing do this I mean if it gets here and catches a bunch of sellers then it's going to just melt down to 19,000 absolutely if you could lock out fantastic beautiful thing hey look at that that's a good month basically an even month you have to learn to walk before you crawl absolutely so now we're at the overnight low the timing is not correct yet because look at the S&P still has room I said up into 87 but with the break of 87 Nvidia just flushed the 106 Mark so we're down into the 105 80s see if this 41 holds if 41 can hold this is a big volume candle here as well so this breakdown made a lot of sense uh I'm a little un uh a little annoyed at my 100K account because I've locked myself out three days in a row and the move happens right afterwards um where instead of being up I'm down on those accounts but it's okay I'm fine with it because I'm still really just sticking to my strategies here with this um if you took this short from the high rotated it like we did we were playing with the shorts up here got involved this move is really really nice really clean pushed down um if you're a little bit more of a ENT and see where the day takes you kind of Trader That's Where It's At hell yeah it's just the beginning screws well done buddy I really do I think you're doing a really great job um we'll see 41 just tagged off basically 40 so if this can hold that's where I want it to get down to right uh you see S&P now right at that 79 if I would have waited for this opportunity then I may have gotten it um I did try the short here didn't wait for the retest break on the 100K and that's really where I I got trapped uh could have left that thing alone and would have been fine but it's all right um this 41 should be the area where there's interest that's the the low from two days ago if not then you're going to be looking at uh 19,000 even or even 18979 that short was beautiful man I mean honestly would have targeted that rotated that was a really nice clean move through that previous day low you got to understand the Dynamics of the market here um that's why you wait on that long set not quite right there this short still heavy still going straight to the downside sellers are pouring in now snps caught up right I talked about how this short up here looked really great um making some adjustments to some of the things that I wanted to to see right I was talking about the short on the retest of the opening range we never took that um we're at vwap right that's just not you know we wanted to see that catch up so if you did take that trade as well that was good on you um hell yeah 2K times 2 for the day lock it out Scotty lock it out well done well done I think that that was realistically the right play um I did mention that this is exactly the kind of move we were going to see except we didn't ever get the consolidation down here or yet we didn't get it yet it could come still down here at 19,000 and rotate up but we were talking about how this looked trappy right here that the breakdown of this was going to lead to a push through the previous day low which we got a second bounce and we wanted to see what happened at this overnight low as the S&P caught up so using the divergences helping us make good decisions right you could do whatever you like Scott uh I would recommend maybe not trading much more I mean you're less than a thousand away from passing you can't I mean you could technically make it today if you want I mean if you really here's what you need to do you can make a th000 tomorrow and then they'll rebuild or if you're not going to lock out wait for something to tell you that this is going to be a rotation the other way right uh 18979 is the next balance point that I have 979 right here if that doesn't hold I mean we have all the way down to the bottom end of the channel which is 18847 18884 you know we could just continue to keep rolling I mean I honestly like I said I'm just oops didn't want to do that that's all right it is melting and I was short right here and I got Wicked in Wicked out and then I locked out the 100K so I'm just just a little early that 100K account I find myself getting into a little bit off because I'm trying to manage that account a little bit differently than this account so obviously definitely not working out that way this one this I really wanted to actually be short right at this level but I waited for this candle to close and that candle close just kind of got me in a little bit of trouble if I would have got in here I could have risked to the high and then I would have been just fine um so just adjusting those risks obviously really good but we talked about it so at least you guys took it I want people to be green I want people to be enjoying this absolutely Scrooge anytime I'll be here tomorrow same time same place here's that 79 level we'll see if that holds or if it's going to Wick it and come back above it um right now we're just in free fall mode there's not a lot to to talk about here for trying to chase it nothing like that like you know I don't have any sort of fomo or anything like that I'm just you know does does Nvidia have the ability to go all the way down to 101 bucks that's a really big pullback it does have 10142 as support if 10142 gives up then even further down we go earnings next week maybe they're positioning for a good earnings play 101 160 what's the low of that 10152 10152 I'm going throw throw a line up there all righty on The Daily I want to get that back to the five minute damn muscles on muscles on muscles beautiful beautiful short right through there um the A+ setup was the overnight low rotation however I felt that we could get short through previous day lows and rotate down to the overnight low and then make a decision down there so that's why I tried it and now sto myself out like an idiot it's okay um then rotating down through here right once you got through that overnight that flush you really I mean at this point Trail out 19,000 probably would have been your out if you've Trail this thing super tight that was really really nice clean breakdown once twice three times here once twice three times we are now in a market where it looks like we are oh Carlos message retracted should have would have could have should have would have could have the only thing I think about as far as targets and stuff um is have those as loose targets have them as areas where you're you're in it and you're just you know if you have a really good idea of like that's probably exactly where it's going to make a decision to turn around you could set a TP there and then and just don't care whatever happens afterwards like that's what I do pretty much I Look to just trail out and if I get my full takeprofit then cool like but that's I don't ever really want to hit my full takeprofit I want my full take profit to be you know all the way down to this purple box and I'm just trailing appropriately according to price action that I see um around my key levels and if I can let it breathe a little bit there's just good your opening position is400 or plus a th000 yeah pretty much that's all I do you can see I mean I'm consistently we making $200 a day like I said if we could do that across a couple accounts and then have a couple Banger days today could have been one of those days yesterday could have been one of those days I just you know it is what it is I just take what I take and I don't get upset when it uh does what it wants to do 19,000 nice round number for it to turn around at here if you got close to it you should probably have been trailed out by now um if it's going to continue down if you have some sort of grand magic eightball that you can hold it longer then good on you but you probably don't want to be giving back 20 plus points in a really good move like that where the next little piece down might not you know your risk to reward now is not not so great so if you are trailing maybe this pullback is great maybe you know you're looking to do something on it but I'm locked out I'm here to just provide nice color commentary I'll probably stay out till 10:30 today it's a nice day out here probably going to try and take the kids to the pool in a little bit after breakfast and do some stuff on my day off you know making it a nice little nice little day see if this retest here leads to a rollover if it's going to break back above is this going to be now the rotation back to the other side of it we don't know I'm all done trading for the day so it doesn't matter what it does to me but for you maybe look to see if this overnight high does pop overnight low does pop if the S&P gets above it start to look for that rotation the other way from that 19,000 psychological number but looking at these plays they worked out one time two times three times if you had the proper RIS risk on them or the proper entries wait for the proper entry then you will would have been just fine just like Scott just worried about how much more he could have made instead of you know instead of worrying about stopping yourself out and getting yourself locked out off of an account right so do yourself a favor make sure that you have a plan before you get in understand your risks like I may start adding in some continuations um we'll see what I decide died on my other account but right now we're just going to keep sticking to the plan as I mentioned today we are in a little bit of a downtrend still I mean we haven't really come out of the downtrend in this um so any sort of day where we open up on that overnight high right here right we open up on that overnight High the likelihood of the rotation back the other direction because that real big extension from the overnight low um extension from the overnight low extension from vwap most of the time unless this is on new and we're gapping and going you're going to get this return back down this way towards the overnight lows so this is another part of my strategy the A+ setup here I had the entry right up here I mean if you guys were involved in that and you were able to be a little more risk averse and allow this thing to breathe a little bit you do have that entry I mean that's where we took our trades you can see our entry criteria I'll set them on there so you can see so you'll believe it if you are not here earlier oops copy trading just missed you can see all of our entries are right around there right I took this first immediate one if it was going to break and go I was going to be involved I took off uh a nice clean move there took the second breakdown trailed out there again then I took I got stopped my real issue about trailing this is I got stopped right there at I took the entry at 79 and I got out at 8075 no that was not right I got in here and out there in at 90 out at 80 in at 80 out at 90 sorry my uh my this is weirdly set up but I got bottom ticked then it came up Whi the out and then rotated down so um didn't front run it up here could have took the short from that break of the overnight high and rotated down um we did take the second time third time through and and broke it so we ended up taking this move right here from there down and for some reason vwap is showing wrong down to that low got stopped out at 72 right here on the reaction of that um trend line so honestly our entry was perfect everything there was good got stopped out here and you can see we've since just continued to rotate all the way through I would have easily been stopped out of you up I'm not saying I would have caught this whole move but calling that top for you guys so you can understand how to to kind of really decipher what's going on um with the market right so if I could let these things breathe a little more that's when he's going to start seeing these really really big days you're going to start to see um an acceleration in the the growth of these accounts but right now like I said I'm willing to just take my base hits copy traded across two three two three accounts right U once these new combines come in I'm going to start working them on you know oil and gold and stuff and see what kind of strategies work there and then just maximize The Leverage on The copier um you know if I just prove concept of I just instead of making 2700 I'm up just shy of 6,000 across two accounts right for the month so then if I can do that times five you can see the the actual math there that's 10 15 15K that's very whiy Nvidia still just holding below that 106 down here at 105 25ish lots of moves to be had here we talked about every single one of them and when they would have happened why they would have happened if you wanted to have them executed like I said I stick to my A+ strategies I don't do what's up man you're stopping Jin oh man no Jin oh I caught that don't think I didn't catch that not Jin this early I promise yeah yeah yeah okay yeah we uh is on the wrong screen where am I at oh man I talked about this whole thing and I was on the wrong screen thanks Carlos my bad I I didn't have it on the correct screen there you go back on that screen [Laughter] uh so I was talking about all this and then I didn't show it but uh all of our executions were up here at the high of the day like I said I'm not the one who's holding all the way to the end of the day or all anywhere hell yes it's 5 o' time Stein grab is always grabbing Stein out here five o'clock somewhere we are we are not going to catch this whole move personally like I said I'm a quick in andout kind of catch my quick hit and run kind of Trader and realistically um we were done really quick like in less than 30 minutes we had our our profit targets kind of good and got we called the top of the day the reason I circled this here is because like I said we had we opened at overnight highs we had that perfect setup for that breakdown of the overnight High we started to get the Divergence between that and the snps snps made it right up to the top top of the O the previous day high right and I said if we can get here and reject this level right there on the snps then that level is going to confirm our breakdown this way on our NQ so we watch for those divergences we watch for that level you got it we caught it we made our money on it we got stopped we got stopped out on our Trail and then as we approach these levels it's not part of my A+ strategy it's middle of the range middle of levels so I'm not executing on this but I talked about how much these when you're in a trend we're in a downtrend where we're currently seeking lower levels where we we had this buyer come in on the overnights that wasn't necessarily propped up by anything so the rotation back the other way made a lot of sense to kind of clean up that overnight low so the the the trend line cracks were likely to work right right here then we talked about this one being at the previous day low and the snps not quite making it there so let me get back to the snps S&P was up higher snps was right here when we had this I said if the snps can break down here and approach this overnight low and overnight you know previous day low then you're going to get the follow through on that down to the overnight low so the short here would make a lot of sense um and then now you're getting into the weeds here of a psychological level of 19,000 uh the low of two days ago was 19,41 so that level there could act as either um a spot where we want to get back above and then rotate up or we're going to come back and down and fail so these are things you have to think about you know through my John Madden drawings here and then boom and tough acting T acting kicks in in the clutch and that's what you're going to get your John Madden teleprompter drawings so that's the thought process behind everything another great Green Day for us here I'm not going to stay on past 10:30 I don't think I'm not going to look for anything here this is already pretty much I've given you once twice three times good setups told you all these levels gave you the opportunity to make your money try to start evaluating levels for yourself try to find your divergences find what's going to make you successful long term and like I said for me it's taking those base hits it's taking that profit curve up into the right for the month of July right we're here right around that 3K mark across two different accounts so uh the amount of your ability to leverage these trades on copers right I only have them on two accounts and I have my 100K separate which I'm kind of [ __ ] around with and not uh keeping in a great you know that account's a little bit and draw down but these accounts that we execute our plan every single day on we're making our money and moving on right make your money move on make your money move on figure something out um that's going to work for you if you stick to your strategy you stick to your plans you're going to to make money long term you just have to be so dedicated to it you got to be like AK over there in the pre-market finding the crap shorting it off that upper band of you up doing what you got to do getting it done and you know making your money before the Market's even open and then you know you can find other opportunities build on other things do what you need to do in order to to be successful right and for me I'm I'm going to just leverage in the two more 50ks and just try and copy across four and then have the 100K separate and once I get those all set up um we're going to be in pretty good shape right because if you can uh if you can do this every single day and like I said compound it across a couple accounts you're going to see your growth start to get exponential but if you've never passed a combine if you've never done anything like this before if you're still in that stage where you need to pass combines if you're still in that stage where maybe you passed a combine but you haven't seen consistent trading opportunity you haven't seen consistent Behavior out of yourself you need to set it up for yourself to to succeed so focus on that one account don't worry about copy trading don't worry about a bunch of other accounts don't waste your time on a bunch of combines that you're going to pass or fail if you maybe got lucky to pass that first one because you oversized overleveraged and did what you needed to do to pass it but you didn't build good trading habits I don't want to encourage that behavior I want you to understand that you know you can be good on one account and make make a whole lot of money if you just are patient and let your setup come to you and let the market tell you what to do instead of looking I you know don't have the fomo of this entire move if if you got I locked myself out that's what that notification is I'm going to show it to you again just to kind of remind you what it looks like manual lockout this account has been manually locked out this is something that TOP Step has built into their platform another reason why you know I love Quant Tower and I love everything about the platform and all that and being able to not have to go back and forth on screens having autop populated you know stuff like that I have a lot of other you know like the depth of the market you know surface almost looking like a book map I got my level twos here I pay for this this is my P personal brokerage but at the end of the day there's a lot of features here on top step X that give you that little bit of an edge to avoid the the mental blocks that come with trading the mental blocks of uh not being able to avoid overtrading not being able to avoid the fomo and all that stuff I want to be a oneandone a day trader right and this manual lockout allows me to do just that right if I get to a point you know an hour in and change I'm already up to a point where if I just walk away for the day if I had this across you know this is across two accounts I'm making 500 bucks across two accounts I mean uh sorry 450 across two accounts you know if I do that every single day I'm going to be just fine in this this world right so lock yourself out do yourself that favor immediately when you click this button you get that like weight lifted off your shoulders it's like okay I have secured what I want today or if you're in small draw down to prevent that large draw down that full Max draw down that Max lock out lock yourself out before you get there that's a psychological Victory right if you're not seeing your setups if you're moving away from your zones if you're starting to see a big trending Market much of what I do is I don't want to see a huge Trend I want to see the rotations that we saw today this is exactly what I want to see out of a market for me to get my A+ opportunity pretty much right off the Jump you know and then if I have an account where I can just set it and forget it then that's a different story and that's kind of what I wanted to do in the 100K and I kind of got away from it and didn't allow it to breathe as much so that's just on me to not do that again right and just allow it to go but at the end of the day use the benefits of these accounts of the of the prop firms allow them to work for you leverage them to your advantage and um don't overdo it right allow yourself to do it base hit base hit base hit build account at One account at a time understand passing one combine at a time yeah you're going to hit it it's going to happen especially when you don't set a Max loss down for yourself I have a $500 personal daily draw down you can see right there on the top that $500 daily draw down limit if you can see it um it's right next to you know my realized pnl unrealized pnl and PD L that's my personal daily loss limit I said it to 500 so if I hit off on a $500 loser I'm locked out of the account uh I can't trade this it won't allow me to do that um you can see the balance and that this is the leader because I'm copying it across one it's lader plus one and then I have the well you can see right here the personal loss limit here I hit that $500 personal daily loss limit on this account because I tried to do a little something something on it didn't work out but I'm okay with that because I understand the risk to reward that tomorrow I can come out on that 100K get myself back green and back into a really good momentum because I'm going to start to I'm trying to use that account as more of a bigger bigger trade um type type idea um and like I said I'm going to try and get two more 50ks just kind of still using the same strategy that we got going on then we'll copy trade across four and then you just start to see things start to scale and scale scale um I'm eligible for a payout now that we have the here we'll go to the dashboard this is the profit curve as of yesterday you can see this is across two accounts just taking your base hit you have a nice winning day move that up to the right you know taking your base hits base hits just a nice steady clean up into the right profit curve we've won 92% of our days we only lost one day last month or this month in July um if I don't execute any trades tomorrow it's still all good made all my you know trades up into here um we're right up at that threshold that 3K threshold there about we have to hit five winning days of $200 plus which today puts us into the eligibility to get a payout all the green check marks so hopefully you can yeah that that that loss limit has a 100% helped I think um overall that the loss limit and the daily lockout Buton but are two huge things that really eliminate a lot of people's fomo and it gets rid of a lot of that um the [ __ ] right it keeps you from don't do dumb [ __ ] don't do dumb [ __ ] that's the the name of the game and the don't do dumb [ __ ] shop has been activated here on day trading Coffee Co so if you want to grab yourself a don't do dumb [ __ ] tea or don't do dumb [ __ ] mug like Scott has and a few others go over head over to day trading cof cod.com and grab yourself we have the inspirational bull who's also slightly a little more subtle doing his don't do dumb [ __ ] he's holding his don't do dumb [ __ ] mug uh in there so pretty solid setup if you want to don't do dumb [ __ ] T we have it in multiple black gray gray and white dark gray light gray white and black so your choice of color but in the chat room we decided that we should probably make a shirt so it's here ready to go don't do dumb [ __ ] T lock yourself out I might make a lock out button t-shirt as well uh to prove concept that if you can get yourself into the habit of locking yourself out mentally not so really my my strict strict rules for myself is I only trade 8:30 to 11 every single day if I or maybe a little bit past 11 if I have the opportunity if it's really setting up oh hell yeah lock out the rock out Bab maybe hell yeah I like it I like it a lot um I'm guessing the don't do dumb [ __ ] is going to be uh a hit but like I said for me um the big the big thing is that the rules that I hit that don't do dumb [ __ ] is really dumb [ __ ] is going and trading pre-market really dumb [ __ ] is trading while I'm at work really dumb [ __ ] is trading on my phone when I don't have my all the data in front of me really dumb [ __ ] is trading from like noon to one when there's just price in the middle of a range or trading away from my levels is when I do dumb [ __ ] if I trade away from my levels if I trade on a day where there's a hurricane that's when you do dumb [ __ ] right so like I'm saying it's just don't do dumb [ __ ] and that's how you stay successful in this long term oh yeah you ran out of your day trading Coffee Co company coffee you're using summer Moon until your order comes in that's you know sometimes you got to use other people's coffee it's okay your order is on the way Scott it

think oh the link oh sorry here here's the link there you go click that that's my stats page for this account today's win percentage 75% we took four trades lost one that really should have never been a loser I just was slightly tight on my stop on it all good another great day out here we can continue to have our average winning trades bigger than our average losers right 171 on the average win 159 on the average lose but our best trade three times as much as our worst trade so we're here we're um you know just making sure that our biggest trades are bigger uh much bigger yeah that's fine I just the one is all I need I mean it's really all you need is just that one account because that's really what I'm showing the discipline on this is the account that I'm trading every single day the most serious the most focused on this account sticking to the strategy one trade at a time today we took four trades you could see went up 280 took that one loser and then went right back on up to 228 could have caught a lot more on some of these other moves but like I said I am totally content on sticking with my strategy allowing my trailing rules to take place I have set plans before I execute so when I do that if I execute towards my plan there's nothing else I could do except for look at the charts maybe adjust the plan for tomorrow and just kind of see where we can go from here understand the Dynamics of what we can do as I mentioned tomorrow is Fed rate cut Fed rate hold day um the big thing is going to be that's at 1:00 I think during the day we're going to get very similar price action a lot more muted mve um they could bid it up or they could sail it off and hopes that they get some sort of surprise cut I doubt it I think they're going to get some more guidance into tomor into you know September's decision so right now we're kind of just waiting on that uh realistically like I said we are just here trying to take advantage of small little pieces of a big move every single day proven concept here for you on stream uh allowing you the opportunity to not copy what I do I'm not a signal service I'm not out here just you know providing you do this now I'm not going to give you those things right I'm not giving you that I'm giving you the tools so you could succeed on your own and keeping you company by just rambling on about nonsense and don't doing dumb [ __ ] and all that fun stuff so if you are in any way interested I will copy that too this is just to have in the chat we can post that you can have that in there if anybody's interested releasing Pips 15% off as always um the write up is in there as well click around explore the website I Ed that as basically the place where I put everything um trading wise that I'm going to be offering now I stream live on tradecaster every single morning 8:30 till 11: any sort of information that you need moving forward I always post on Instagram at policing Pips as well and at daytrading Coffee Co follow us at day trading Coffee Co for any special offers new releases all that fun stuff and we post pretty uh quality coffee content I think uh look out for education on some coffee education I like to post here and there about differences in coffees differences in roast differences in grind size and kind of just giving people a little bit better of an understanding of there's more to Coffee than just getting uh getting it and filling it with a much of milk and not tasting it if that's your bag that's your bag but for us uh I drink pretty much everything black you can see here I have my little bit of a brew right now this is my Prop Shop Ethiopia I brewed that today in a small all little pour over so cheers to everybody Scott says it the best camaraderie is the best trading is a game you play against yourself but it's nice to have other people to talk to about it and you would have never found it without my stream so thank you for that I appreciate it absolutely this is what it's all about uh yeah it's such a lonely game especially like the old school Trader mentality you were in a pit you were at places you were on a floor you're at a desk you had people around you that you can kind of work off of and now in the internet age a lot of people have gone away from that everybody's alone they're in their off their you know their own personal their house their office their apartment whatever trading from a laptop trading from a phone you don't have the ability to bounce off everything off of everybody else so having having trade caster and having this stream and everything about it it builds that camaraderie it builds build a community I mean honestly we went up to New York and the the show out that we had in that meet up with everybody was fantastic I mean we we went to the rooftop we had a good time um there was so much good trading conversations going on that day and I think the more we can do things like that and obviously my plans for day trading Coffee Co has something like that in mind right um building that Community around coffee around trading around tradecaster I think tradecaster is here to stay I think deck does a great job with it um you know he's trying to expand it every single day giving everybody opportuni so I am going to get an affiliate Link at some point I got to find it I got a message deck about it when I get that I will post it um if you do want to sign up for tradecaster don't be afraid to use my uh my stuff it'll be cool um and we will start to build the community more if you start to know people that you want to get involved in this community you know who want to get involved with the tradecaster world um and be in the lobby be in the chat room be involved day-to-day basis at some point when it gets big enough uh we'll have meetups we'll have giveaways we'll have all these things as far as my room is concerned and you know I I really think that everybody I have a Discord I haven't set it up great um I have two Discord servers that I have I need to clean them up and get them like appropriately set up um you know I'm not like all these other people who want to make money off of this as far as like selling it to people selling the education do I think I can make money that way yeah could I could I be some sort of like furu Guru where I could sell courses and stuff like that and people like oh do you have you're selling your Discord room or you're selling your Ro your your trading bot or I don't want to be known as that I want to be out here trading I want to be on the stream so I could show transparency when I do stupid [ __ ] when I don't do dumb [ __ ] you know when I do stick to my plan the results that you can get by just sticking to your plan you can see it here so yeah really what I it's free so tradecaster free to sign up 7-Day free trial um when I get the link you can go sign up or whatever I'll let you know when I get my new link um uh my room is free for now until it gets bigger and then you can the paid rooms do make a lot of sense there's a lot of Education in there you do get a lot of benefits from the paid rooms um you know if you go into say some of these rooms and we're calling calling out good plays giving you a good education giving you that building block to keep keep that accountability maybe um if I go to a paid room in tradecaster or or when I go to a PID whenever it becomes that I'm going to provide a lot more value to that room than just being here and streaming and stuff like that we're GNA I'm going to be doing my best to just providing as much value as possible giving things away doing a lot of giveaways building a community having meetups and having some of whatever that paid room builds into um and then uh move from there right like right now I don't get paid to stream I'm just here out of my my uh my desire to kind of be helpful for other people yeah so you can when you're in when you're in the tradecaster room you could always go into my room and chat and that chat stays there pretty much all the time so that's another benefit of the tradecaster room I think I will set up the Discord when I get the Discord set up correctly and not all messy the way it is maybe I'm just going to delete the old ones and then just reset it up um I don't mind like I said I think I can we could build a nice little Community within the tradecaster I mean into a Discord and uh let me I'll work on that um during the weekend I'll work on the the community because I have the policing Pips trade team here I will pull that onto the screen this is old this is just some of the stuff that I used to post education links group chat fundamental stuff I'm going to just wipe it all clean and then once I get it all set up I will I'll send it out I'll send the link out I deleted it off to YouTube because I had people joining and stuff uh I also have this other one this one here that also is the same thing and I don't know what I did I was trying to double it and I don't know I was trying to figure it out didn't I don't have like the uh gaming background that a lot of people do where they streamed games and now they have discords and all that stuff uh so I I don't don't have it but I will set it up this weekend get it to be a lot better maybe I'll go through a YouTube video on how to set up a Discord server better and then I'll send out that link if I could do that tonight or something maybe I'll do that um like I said we're up another Green Day straight green straight up to the right this is the kind of profit curve you want to see it's a healthy profit curve up to the right you don't want to be doing that too much of oversized losses right so I have nice winners and then I flatten out with you know base hits and then I have another bigger winner like a nicer wins then you flatten out base hits base hits another nicer win same D here right and then as you start to build right this should look almost like an apple chart or a Bitcoin chart right in the early phases I want to see this nice and flat I want to see some good healthy price action on my personal account right I want to see it build up and to the right I want to keep building on the successes that I'm having of sticking to my A+ setup taking my money when it comes and then when it really melts off when I really get a chance to to take that trade and and and milk it for everything that it's worth I usually do that right that's what that day was right there I was able to milk that for whatever it was worth today maybe a little bit we could have got a little more but I'm not upset about it right um we continue to stick to the plan because that next time that I do have the opportunity to to to pull that much more out of the market I will and I'm going to you know do everything that I can to just keep pushing this up and to the right if I can get these two account balances to about 5k you know that leaves you a really good buffer to start now scaling up right instead of now taking one um now instead of taking uh one contract maybe I leverage up to two I'm probably not going to switch to two contracts until I do get these account balances into that 5 to 6,000 range um even after a payout right so let's see whatever happens the rest of this week I'm going to take the payout and then I'm going to walk you through how that payout process works we're already eligible for it I'm not too concerned about you know what I'm going to pay out I'm just going to see how much I can take out pretty much everything that I make the rest of the week is going to be probably what I withdraw so I'm gonna just try and build this up more and more and more and then every time I take a withdraw I'm take either take a little less or try to build up the account a little bit more so I just keep taking the same amount um taking the same amount out right so the goal here is to kind of be I would love to be on that hot streak you know top hot streak list for TOP Step you know being in that 30 40 50 um 50 straight days 60 straight days of [ __ ] green right if I could do that and not have the big pullbacks that profit that Equity curve goes up and to the right and then the big days like I said you get another big day in there boom you know ,000 a $2,000 day or $1,500 day a $55,000 day that moves that up into the right then you can start to maybe start to leverage into to size and start continuing on feeling the market the only thing I need to change is once I get to a buffer where I can you know have my daily draw down a little bit bigger and not take a big hit in my account balance is I could just scale up contracts right if I can consistently do this every single day like I'm showing you it's possible you can do this every single day you're going to have a loser here and there keep those losers really small because every single day you can come out here and make 200 300 500 400 1,000 50 bucks take the money move on and then trade for tomorrow as I mentioned Confluence equals confidence don't do dumb [ __ ] and you'll be just fine wait wait for your level to come into play allow your setups to come in and you're going to be you're going to be okay and here it is again another wedge trend line break it's just like clockwork if you're in a trend it's likely to work if you're fighting Trends it's probably not going to work you could see this coming into here being the rejection point I know I said I was going to get off at 10:30 I'm still talking um we're not I I I just love this this community that we're able to kind of build here together so I I I have a hard time getting off um but like I said at the end of the day just stick to your plans don't do dumb [ __ ] everything's going to be all right as long as nobody's got anything else like I said I'm willing to stay on here till 11: normal time throw your questions out um I haven't executed since that and this on the 100K um I had the right idea here just didn't time it correctly and it's all right it's just kind of more of the I had a secondary look at it and that's what happens when you don't have a full-on plan for or you do have a full-on plan for it but you don't have your whole Focus set on it you're not going to do great so just make sure you're focused don't do dumb [ __ ] allow your plays to play out if you lose you lose move on to the next trade and carry on with your life um like I said I'm just working on building this account slowly but surely um waiting to see if anybody else has the um the questions comments concerns let me know otherwise we're going to get off here in one minute minute so let it be known speak now or forever hold your speak I know that's not the terms but I just make up [ __ ] you can watch this you got it brother I appreciate you coming by I'm glad you're were able to finally get on a stream um also good to note that you kind of saw what we see on a day-to-day basis our our strategy works out if we wait for those levels to come into play you're going to be able to limit your risk have good opportunities make your money you already got a pass account pass another one start copy trading build your account buffer slowly and then as you start to scale up I mean as you start to build it up scale up leverage these accounts take your payouts and just do it every single day you're in this for the long term and that's how it's going to stay the only one all right go to bed Scott I will see everybody tomorrow same time same place 8:30 a.m. trade.com
