  4. 0:06some of the biggest losses i made in
  5. 0:072020
  6. 0:08and this is something that i regularly
  7. 0:10do uh yearly so i will be able to
  8. 0:12identify
  9. 0:13which one is avoidable losses which one
  10. 0:16is unavoidable
  11. 0:17this is a very important step for me to
  12. 0:19become a consistent profitable trader
  13. 0:21so i think it's also important to you as
  14. 0:24well
  15. 0:24and before i start this video make sure
  16. 0:26to click the like button and subscribe
  17. 0:28and let's get into the video so the
  18. 0:30overall process will be split in three
  19. 0:32different parts
  20. 0:33the first part will be of the losses and
  21. 0:35mistakes you made
  22. 0:36second part will be all of the
  23. 0:38consistent winning trades
  24. 0:39that you made throughout the year the
  25. 0:42third part which is the most important
  26. 0:44part for beginners is you want to select
  27. 0:47all the trades
  28. 0:48that belong to scalping or small trades
  29. 0:52you made about 500 or a thousand dollars
  30. 0:54and these are considered to be small
  31. 0:56trades for your account
  32. 0:57now you want to identify them does these
  33. 1:00small trades fit any type of pattern now
  34. 1:03if it's not fitting any type of pattern
  35. 1:05or some of the pattern you want to
  36. 1:06potentially test
  37. 1:08then those trades counts you are over
  38. 1:12trading in this market so once you can
  39. 1:14filter that out as a beginner then
  40. 1:16it will be a very good step for you to
  41. 1:19become a consistent profitable trader
  42. 1:21in this video i will be go overing all
  43. 1:24the mistakes that i made
  44. 1:25some of the trades that stands out and
  45. 1:29i'm very stubborn about and sizing way
  46. 1:31too much
  47. 1:32and also some of the biggest wins that i
  48. 1:34made throughout the year so you can kind
  49. 1:36of see that
  50. 1:37how do i really react if i'm winning big
  51. 1:39or i'm taking a huge losses
  52. 1:41so in this way you can get used to the
  53. 1:43mindset that you are winning
  54. 1:45and also if you are losing you will be
  55. 1:47able to find out okay this is
  56. 1:49something that i did before i will try
  57. 1:51to avoid it into the next time uh when
  58. 1:54i'm trading in real time
  59. 1:55so that'll be uh of the concept i'll
  60. 1:58give you guys
  61. 1:59let's get into uh the recaps all right
  62. 2:01so there's going to be two tickers i
  63. 2:03want to talk about
  64. 2:04uh obon this one will be i'll say one of
  65. 2:07the biggest mistakes that i made i
  66. 2:09caught losses
  67. 2:10way too late let's look at the yearly
  68. 2:12chart this sticker
  69. 2:13had over 200 minute resistance around
  70. 2:16two to three dollars the major
  71. 2:18consolidation area is between
  72. 2:202.5 to 2.7 in that day
  73. 2:23when i talk about shorting into
  74. 2:26resistance
  75. 2:27i always avoid stocks under three
  76. 2:29dollars so on obln
  77. 2:31it's stuck between two to three dollars
  78. 2:33it's on the high twos
  79. 2:34and the low 3 area so it barely
  80. 2:38qualified the criteria
  81. 2:39of shorting into resistance which i
  82. 2:42still
  83. 2:42sized in full amount risking
  84. 2:46the 3 dollar area i think the stock
  85. 2:48opened
  86. 2:49over 3 opened around 3.4 it traded about
  87. 2:53the 100 million
  88. 2:54shares before 10 30. if you are trying
  89. 2:57to estimate the entire day volume
  90. 2:59if in the first hour already traded
  91. 3:02about 100 million shares
  92. 3:03it's definitely going to trade more
  93. 3:04shares throughout the day and it's also
  94. 3:06going to overwhelm
  95. 3:07the 200 million resistance that was made
  96. 3:10in december 7th in 2018 2019 we never
  97. 3:15get
  98. 3:15any resistance that is close to 200
  99. 3:18million resistance
  100. 3:19so i sized in about i would say 500 000
  101. 3:23worth of positions i think i took around
  102. 3:2615
  103. 3:2720 losses so that's like a hundred
  104. 3:29thousand one hundred fifty thousand
  105. 3:30losses on this specific ticker
  106. 3:33so in the future what i can improve on
  107. 3:35is if the stock is trading over 100
  108. 3:37million
  109. 3:38shares before 10 30 and it's definitely
  110. 3:41going to trade more than 200 million
  111. 3:42shares
  112. 3:43throughout the day and i will try to
  113. 3:47size down because sometimes the stock
  114. 3:49decides to
  115. 3:50do a massive pull and actually
  116. 3:52consolidate
  117. 3:53around the resistance then drop so in
  118. 3:55that case if the volume is too much
  119. 3:58try to size down as much as possible i
  120. 4:00would recommend 20 percent of your
  121. 4:02regular size
  122. 4:03for this type of shorting strategy so
  123. 4:06for wnw
  124. 4:08this is another massive wing that i did
  125. 4:10i was
  126. 4:11very patient on the sticker because
  127. 4:13during that time there is a massive ipo
  128. 4:16hype in that two months so
  129. 4:19the stock did when very overextended
  130. 4:21went from seven to 160
  131. 4:23uh in three days let's look at the
  132. 4:26intriguing chart
  133. 4:27so we'll be able to tell where the entry
  134. 4:29is and where
  135. 4:30is the exit so first of all when the
  136. 4:33stock is
  137. 4:34spiking in the afternoon there's always
  138. 4:36a really good chance that stock tends to
  139. 4:38perform a massive morning spike
  140. 4:40so for wmw because it is a very fresh
  141. 4:43chart
  142. 4:44and they attracted a lot more volume
  143. 4:47after the open
  144. 4:48the stock went from 50 to 160
  145. 4:51pretty much in 30 minutes once it formed
  146. 4:54the top it dropped another 50 percent
  147. 4:56from the 160 so it dropped all the way
  148. 4:58to 80
  149. 5:00so in this case when people are buying
  150. 5:02around 160 they're
  151. 5:03down way too much so they want to sell
  152. 5:05into some type of consolidations or
  153. 5:07balances
  154. 5:08and the consolidated about 2 million
  155. 5:10shares around 100
  156. 5:12so that's about 2 billion in terms of
  157. 5:15dollar block
  158. 5:16which i decided sizing around 120
  159. 5:18covered around 102
  160. 5:20then because of the borrow fee was way
  161. 5:22too expensive to hold overnight assassin
  162. 5:25again
  163. 5:26into the next day morning average is
  164. 5:28around 103 covered
  165. 5:30on the low of the day close to 72.73
  166. 5:34so that's the two trades that i made on
  167. 5:35wnw
  168. 5:37both of the trade i made over 20
  169. 5:40from my original investment so i think
  170. 5:42that's a
  171. 5:43decent gain and also one thing to keep
  172. 5:45in mind that a multi-day runner
  173. 5:47tends to fade anywhere between 50 to 75
  174. 5:51percent
  175. 5:51now 80 percent of the multi-day runner
  176. 5:54tends to only fade about 50 percent
  177. 5:56now the rest of the 25 percent doesn't
  178. 5:59really happen not often
  179. 6:00so for wnw specifically
  180. 6:04it covered when the stock faded around
  181. 6:0650 percent
  182. 6:07but in some cases that this type of
  183. 6:10ticker tends to fade
  184. 6:1275 which you can see that when it
  185. 6:14dropped it to
  186. 6:16the low 30s that's
  187. 6:19in total about 75 of the entire game
  188. 6:23oblan is one of the biggest losses that
  189. 6:26i made in 2020 and also wnw
  190. 6:28is one of the biggest game that i made
  191. 6:30last year uh hopefully you guys can
  192. 6:32learn something new about
  193. 6:34my thought process on obon and wnw
  194. 6:37overall i think the market is going into
  195. 6:39a bigger volume sector
  196. 6:40so what you have to do is go look at
  197. 6:42your losses and to see what you can
  198. 6:44improve on
  199. 6:45and also look at your wins to make sure
  200. 6:46that what you can do to
  201. 6:48keep your consistency so that will be
  202. 6:50all for this video thank you very much

  204. 6:53in the next one
