  1. 0:00All
  2. 0:11right.
  3. 0:37All
  4. 0:50right, my bad. My bad. I'm back. I
  5. 0:52forgot I had I forgot I had to fix some
  6. 0:55[ __ ] on my computer, so the stream
  7. 0:57started to lag to lag, basically.
  8. 1:01[clears throat] So, anyways,
  9. 1:03back to what I was saying.
  10. 1:12back to what I was saying. I think we're
  11. 1:14going to actually uh break out of this
  12. 1:16range. I don't really expect um
  13. 1:19Asia and London and New York to all stay
  14. 1:21within the same 80 points.
  15. 1:25So,
  16. 1:27either we break out to the downside and
  17. 1:29potentially pop up or to the upside go
  18. 1:31down or maybe we just go in a straight
  19. 1:33direction. But
  20. 1:38I'm expecting some type of move though
  21. 1:41to be to be honest.
  22. 1:59I need to restart my uh ATS.
  23. 2:33All
  24. 2:45right, now it's back.
  25. 3:07All right. So, anyways,
  26. 3:11I'm expecting us to break out in a
  27. 3:13direction here with um
  28. 3:17with New York session.
  29. 3:20Again, I do want to see us the preferred
  30. 3:26path that I'd like price to take that I
  31. 3:28just I want. I don't know if it's going
  32. 3:30to happen or not, but I would like price
  33. 3:32to actually go lower first before we
  34. 3:34start going back up here to 127
  35. 3:3826,127
  36. 3:40and rebalance some of this move here.
  37. 3:42So, basically from here
  38. 3:46to here, those two swing swing low to
  39. 3:50swing high. I would like us to come a
  40. 3:52little bit deeper into here. um at least
  41. 3:54fill the gap
  42. 3:57here at like 26,000 before we
  43. 4:01kind of come back up.
  44. 4:04But it could just pump from here, but
  45. 4:07I that's what I would like to see at
  46. 4:09least. So,
  47. 4:14we're going to just have to wait and
  48. 4:16see. But I'm going to be trading I'm
  49. 4:18actually going to be copy trading
  50. 4:22these two accounts here.
  51. 4:28And I'm probably going to be using like
  52. 4:3010 to 20 micros.
  53. 4:34So basically one to two minis
  54. 4:37to try and um
  55. 4:41hit like 1500 on the day.
  56. 4:46So, we got like
  57. 4:49couple minutes until market open.
  58. 5:04But yeah, we're not going to be trading
  59. 5:05any funded accounts today cuz they're
  60. 5:08basically all locked up.
  61. 5:11The main goal for this week is just to
  62. 5:12try and pass more evaluation accounts.
  63. 5:16And we're in profit this month with the
  64. 5:18firms. So, we're going to use some of
  65. 5:20that profit to try and set ourselves up
  66. 5:22for next month so we can have a good
  67. 5:25start to the first to the first month of
  68. 5:27the year.
  69. 5:59Probably going to take this before
  70. 6:01market even opens.
  71. 6:16I'm tempted to try and go short here
  72. 6:19actually,
  73. 6:21but I have to wait.
  74. 6:27If we can take like London lows and then
  75. 6:29continue lower here headed towards 600,
  76. 6:31it would be ideal. But I just don't want
  77. 6:34to like enter in a short right here and
  78. 6:36then we just snap up.
  79. 6:40So, we're going to wait a second.
  80. 6:43We're going to wait for the market to
  81. 6:44open here in like 10 seconds. But
  82. 6:47realistically, [clears throat]
  83. 6:48this looks like it's about to open up
  84. 6:49and just melt. So,
  85. 6:53but I'm just going to have to basically
  86. 6:55watch it happen
  87. 7:04because I didn't want that to happen.
  88. 7:06Perfect. So, that's why we're going to
  89. 7:08wait because we don't want it to just
  90. 7:10rip like that.
  91. 7:13Although it may actually still snap
  92. 7:14down, but
  93. 7:33I'm actually going to probably
  94. 7:37depending on how the five minutes
  95. 7:40looking I may actually try and just go
  96. 7:42short.
  97. 7:48All right, I'm going to go short.
  98. 7:51And since
  99. 7:56we're going to have to put our stop like
  100. 7:58up here,
  101. 8:03actually,
  102. 8:09we'll put it at the top of this wick
  103. 8:10because I really don't want it to get
  104. 8:11past this wick. So, we might just take a
  105. 8:14$500 L.
  106. 8:17But I do want to see this fiveminute
  107. 8:19candle essentially fail to go higher and
  108. 8:22then
  109. 8:24close
  110. 8:26with [clears throat] a large wick to the
  111. 8:28upside. But we are taking it kind of
  112. 8:29premature. But
  113. 8:32it's an evaluation. So I I'm going to
  114. 8:34just try it.
  115. 8:46I thought that was kind of a shitty
  116. 8:47entry, but whatever.
  117. 9:18Yeah, we're going to get stopped out of
  118. 9:20this.
  119. 9:24And then if we do, we're just going to
  120. 9:26have to wait for a bit.
  121. 9:37Because realistically, if this
  122. 9:38fiveminute candle was going to flip, it
  123. 9:40should have already done it.
  124. 9:42It's kind of holding. So, it's going to
  125. 9:44close. It looks like it's going to
  126. 9:46actually close pretty bullish.
  127. 9:49And we got a pretty shitty entry. Like,
  128. 9:51realistically, the entry should have
  129. 9:53actually been in this area.
  130. 9:55So,
  131. 9:57basically like 20 points higher with a
  132. 10:00stop up here. But it's all right.
  133. 10:34I'm Actually surprised it didn't stop us
  134. 10:36out yet.
  135. 10:48But I still think it's going to stop us
  136. 10:50up.
  137. 10:52We're just going to have to let it ride.
  138. 11:03There's about a minute left in this
  139. 11:04fiveminute candle. If we can actually
  140. 11:06close on this 5 minute somewhere closer
  141. 11:09to the actual entry, there may be a
  142. 11:12chance, but probably not.
  143. 11:15Because what's probably going to happen
  144. 11:16right now is if we close up here or we
  145. 11:20close bullish, then
  146. 11:23we may actually go to attack the highs
  147. 11:25right now.
  148. 11:27I think.
  149. 11:58Yeah, we're gonna um
  150. 12:04if I don't get stopped out of this, I'm
  151. 12:05actually going to be pretty surprised
  152. 12:06because even if it comes down here, it
  153. 12:08might actually just be creating a wick
  154. 12:10down before it pops up to go higher.
  155. 12:39Sit down.
  156. 12:56All right. So, we got some sellers
  157. 12:57stepping in now. We're going to see if
  158. 12:59they can actually continue. And what we
  159. 13:02would basically be looking for is
  160. 13:05we don't want sellers to fail here.
  161. 13:07Otherwise, we're going to basically
  162. 13:09slingshot
  163. 13:10to the highs.
  164. 13:13Let me mark this out.
  165. 13:16was like 7:05 was the entry
  166. 13:26and I'm trying to take it to about where
  167. 13:29is this
  168. 13:31628.
  169. 13:45Yeah, it's kind of low. Um, once I once
  170. 13:48we actually take if we do end up taking
  171. 13:51London lows right now, what I'm going to
  172. 13:53do is or like London pre-market lows,
  173. 13:57what I'm going to do is actually move my
  174. 13:58stop to break even
  175. 14:10because basically I don't want it to
  176. 14:11wick down and then pop back up.
  177. 14:35But if we can get this uh 15minute
  178. 14:37candle to flip and close bearish in like
  179. 14:40the next
  180. 14:44like eight minutes or whatever.
  181. 14:47I think it'll be looking pretty good for
  182. 14:49what we're trying to get, but it still
  183. 14:51has a chance to
  184. 14:53still come all the way back up here
  185. 14:55basically.
  186. 15:06Since it's a evaluation, I'm willing to
  187. 15:09basically take the full loss
  188. 15:12on this um
  189. 15:15trade because
  190. 15:19I'm basically going to risk the entire
  191. 15:21draw down today if I if I'm going to. So
  192. 15:23So
  193. 15:26we got 2,000 of it. If we lose this
  194. 15:28trade, we'll lose like
  195. 15:31600 of it.
  196. 15:36We'll have 1,400 bucks to
  197. 15:39try and make it back.
  198. 16:02The only thing I'm thinking though right
  199. 16:04now is that realistically this wasn't a
  200. 16:07super large amount of sellers. But we do
  201. 16:10need to see like some type of
  202. 16:12continuation of selling pressure here.
  203. 16:16And we're not really getting it yet.
  204. 16:27But the moment we start blasting past
  205. 16:30this, cuz it should start picking up
  206. 16:32with speed once we start getting past
  207. 16:34this area. So, we're gonna have to move
  208. 16:37it to break even basically
  209. 16:41when it does take it
  210. 16:45because when it takes these lows right
  211. 16:47here, what I'd want to see is for
  212. 16:49another large seller to basically step
  213. 16:51in and then for speed to pick up towards
  214. 16:54the downside. Now that we have
  215. 16:58basically this 15minute is now flipping
  216. 17:01bearish.
  217. 17:08So technically we took it. So I am going
  218. 17:10to have to move my stop to break even
  219. 17:12though it may stop us out but it'll be
  220. 17:15like right above the PC of the previous
  221. 17:16fivem minute candle.
  222. 17:20[clears throat] But I'd be looking for
  223. 17:22this to actually just continue. I don't
  224. 17:23want it to just mess around right here.
  225. 17:27So, I'll take a break even on it and
  226. 17:29then we'll just have to wait for the uh
  227. 17:32next trade basically.
  228. 17:39Although, to be be completely honest, we
  229. 17:41got pretty lucky I didn't get stopped
  230. 17:43out of that. I think I was like
  231. 17:48couple dollars away from or a couple
  232. 17:51ticks away from actually getting stopped
  233. 17:52out of that trade because we had a
  234. 17:54shitty um
  235. 17:57we had a shitty entry.
  236. 18:01All right. So, I'm going to wait now.
  237. 18:20I'm actually interested to see how this
  238. 18:2515 minutes going to close.
  239. 18:39There's about 3 minutes left and the PSC
  240. 18:41of the 15-minute candle is all the way
  241. 18:43up here in the wick.
  242. 18:47So, it's still looking pretty bearish
  243. 18:48right now realistically.
  244. 19:14recorded on
  245. 19:16specialain.
  246. 19:35So what I'm thinking right now is for us
  247. 19:37to actually maintain
  248. 19:40some bearish momentum. I don't really
  249. 19:42want to see this 5m minute candle close
  250. 19:45or get above basically 50% of this this
  251. 19:50candle right here.
  252. 19:54because if it closes back up here, then
  253. 19:57it's we're basically just in like a
  254. 19:59whiplashing
  255. 20:01chop. But I do think we're probably
  256. 20:03going to actually target 650. Okay, so
  257. 20:11sellers try to step in again, but
  258. 20:14trying to see if we're going to have
  259. 20:16follow through. Realistically
  260. 20:22be targeting like 650 first.
  261. 20:33All right, I'm going to give it another
  262. 20:35attempt, but this stop loss is going to
  263. 20:37basically be
  264. 20:40right above the wick of this fivem
  265. 20:41minute candle. Oh [ __ ]
  266. 20:45Delete this.
  267. 20:47So,
  268. 20:49it needs to like continue and start to
  269. 20:52flush pretty aggressively
  270. 21:02because I do think it's going lower.
  271. 21:07Unless all of the selling pressure is
  272. 21:09just failing right here.
  273. 22:00All right. So, we're looking for this
  274. 22:02fiveminute candle to start having some
  275. 22:04aggression towards the
  276. 22:06downside, but
  277. 22:14there's like no follow through right
  278. 22:15now.
  279. 22:20PMI right now.
  280. 22:27Where do you see that?
  281. 22:30PMI.
  282. 22:41No, that's tomorrow, bro.
  283. 22:46We don't really have any news today
  284. 22:49other than the FOMC meeting minutes
  285. 22:52which is like
  286. 22:55oh we do have Chicago PMI today
  287. 23:01oh well it didn't really do it didn't
  288. 23:03really do anything because it's like an
  289. 23:04orange uh
  290. 23:07that's weird on my um
  291. 23:10on my like news thing it said that it
  292. 23:13was tomorrow and And literally as I was
  293. 23:16reading off FOMC meeting minutes, it
  294. 23:19just like populated the Chicago PMI for
  295. 23:22today.
  296. 23:26Gold's dumping. Let me take a look at
  297. 23:29it.
  298. 23:30Yeah, gold's going down. Probably
  299. 23:32silver's going down, too.
  300. 23:42All right.
  301. 23:44I need to start seeing some follow
  302. 23:46through with the selling pressure
  303. 23:49because it's really not that strong.
  304. 23:52Okay,
  305. 23:55the buyers just came in like super
  306. 23:57aggressively
  307. 24:00which was pretty nasty.
  308. 24:03So, we're down 500.
  309. 24:10What's up, Megie? move.
  310. 24:14Yeah. So, that was nasty. We were trying
  311. 24:15to see some follow through on uh on the
  312. 24:18sellers and then we just had large
  313. 24:21buyers just step in. This is the
  314. 24:23basically the largest order of the
  315. 24:24morning
  316. 24:27which ended up taking us out on our
  317. 24:30evaluation account.
  318. 24:37I'm actually going to sit here and wait
  319. 24:38for a second because
  320. 24:44this is kind of like a
  321. 24:49slower
  322. 24:51open where we're not really having
  323. 24:53follow through in a direction. We're
  324. 24:54kind of just
  325. 24:56like staying
  326. 24:59within this area.
  327. 25:04It's really not that big. It's like 60
  328. 25:06points.
  329. 25:24And if we're going to basically like
  330. 25:27stay in this area, if we don't just
  331. 25:29start shooting up right now to go target
  332. 25:31the highs
  333. 25:34and we just like flip back and we're
  334. 25:36like stuck here.
  335. 25:39I might not
  336. 25:42I might just actually wait until
  337. 25:47we see something happen.
  338. 25:50But what what but after these buyers
  339. 25:51step in like this like basically what
  340. 25:53you want to see is
  341. 25:56for this to be the catalyst or the
  342. 25:59initiation of a move to continue higher.
  343. 26:02So we want to continue to see buying
  344. 26:03pressure step in
  345. 26:07and then the target would realistically
  346. 26:09be like the nearest target are obviously
  347. 26:11like these relative equal highs right
  348. 26:12here. So like Asia and London session
  349. 26:16essentially
  350. 26:18that' be target number one. And it's
  351. 26:20like about 25 points away right here
  352. 26:22where all these orders are sitting
  353. 27:23All right, there we We go. So, we're
  354. 27:25taking the orders here at 750.
  355. 27:38And for this range right here, like this
  356. 27:41right around here is actually the value
  357. 27:43area high for the range. But I'm ex, it
  358. 27:47looks like we're actually about to just
  359. 27:48break through it.
  360. 29:12Yeah, we're kind of stalling out right
  361. 29:14here. I
  362. 29:16right at the uh value area high of this
  363. 29:18like
  364. 29:21of the range that was established.
  365. 30:43We're basically like
  366. 30:45not really going anywhere right now.
  367. 31:40Yeah, I'm going to just have to wait
  368. 31:42right now.
  369. 31:45We're going to wait for this uh we're
  370. 31:47going to wait for the uh 4 hour open
  371. 31:50realistically because
  372. 31:55every time both times now it looked like
  373. 31:57we were having um some aggression and
  374. 32:00then the moment we get to the edge of
  375. 32:02the range it like
  376. 32:04slowed down.
  377. 32:25All right. So, we just took London highs
  378. 32:27and um
  379. 32:35and the order sitting at 750. So,
  380. 32:40Next area would be the these highs 774
  381. 32:43another 25 points higher and then of
  382. 32:46course up here
  383. 32:52and 800 because it's a psychological
  384. 32:53number.
  385. 32:55So, I'm going to just wait for this
  386. 32:57fivem minute candle um and the next
  387. 33:00fivem minute candle, but Oh, whoops. We
  388. 33:03may just start ripping now. But
  389. 33:12we'll see what it does.
  390. 34:54Yeah, it's looking like the ultimate
  391. 34:56or where we're probably going to go if
  392. 34:58the buying pressure continues
  393. 35:01is New York session AM highs from
  394. 35:04yesterday when we opened up and pumped
  395. 35:06for a bit which is right around 820.
  396. 35:12So if this um
  397. 35:21this closes in like 2 minutes here and
  398. 35:25we get a retracement back on the
  399. 35:2715-minute candle towards
  400. 35:32probably around here like 740.
  401. 35:36I may try and go long.
  402. 35:39[clears throat]
  403. 35:44Unless we just open up on the new 1 hour
  404. 35:46candle and just start ripping higher.
  405. 35:47Then I'm just going to sit here and
  406. 35:50watch it happen. Basically,
  407. 36:46Oh, I guess we took that like just
  408. 36:48barely. early.
  409. 36:52All right, let's see how this Let's see
  410. 36:53how this is going to open up in 5
  411. 36:55minutes or 5 seconds or right now
  412. 36:58basically.
  413. 37:15You are
  414. 37:30you are
  415. 37:35you
  416. 37:53I kind of want to attempt a long
  417. 37:55position.
  418. 37:57Although,
  419. 37:59I think if I lose another trade, I'm
  420. 38:01probably just going to stop trading
  421. 38:02today.
  422. 38:17So basically right now where we're at on
  423. 38:19the 15minute candle is we're like right
  424. 38:21at the PC of it. So I'm seeing whether
  425. 38:23or not it's going to hold or if we're
  426. 38:26just going to blast through it right now
  427. 38:27and go lower.
  428. 38:37All right, I'm gonna
  429. 38:39try a long position here
  430. 38:44and I'm going to have to basically
  431. 38:48risk like
  432. 38:50five
  433. 38:53600 bucks.
  434. 38:56And then if we fall back into this range
  435. 38:58and stop me out and then we're just like
  436. 39:00right back in the middle of the range
  437. 39:02and I'm trying to basically have a
  438. 39:05continuation higher. I think I'm just
  439. 39:07going to stop trading. I'll be down like
  440. 39:13$1,000
  441. 39:16on these two EV valves.
  442. 39:20So we'll just we'll just save it for
  443. 39:23another day, honestly.
  444. 39:41This is the 15-minute chart I'm looking
  445. 39:43at right now. I would like to see us now
  446. 39:47basically
  447. 39:50fail to go lower. The PC stays down here
  448. 39:53and we start to flip bullish.
  449. 40:46But yeah, if we uh just snap back into
  450. 40:49this range, you know what? Today's just
  451. 40:52not my day. Nothing I can do about it.
  452. 40:57Try to take shorts.
  453. 41:00We had buyers step in and then buyers
  454. 41:03are stepping in and we're we're looking
  455. 41:04for the continuation up to like 820 825
  456. 41:08and if it doesn't want to do that and we
  457. 41:09just [ __ ] around in this range then
  458. 41:14I realistically just shouldn't be
  459. 41:16trading it
  460. 41:19and I'll just take the L on the evals
  461. 41:21and then we'll come back tomorrow and
  462. 41:23try and secure uh the payout for
  463. 41:27this account and get the first payout of
  464. 41:292026
  465. 41:31realistically
  466. 41:33because they won't pay me until January
  467. 42:31Should
  468. 42:41be like right Here.
  469. 43:16Sit down.
  470. 43:44Hley's
  471. 43:46looking nasty.
  472. 43:55What is gold doing?
  473. 44:12down.
  474. 44:14Here we
  475. 44:56All right.
  476. 44:58If it's going to take me out, just take
  477. 44:59me out already.
  478. 45:02I was a little worried about the there
  479. 45:04were orders sitting right here and then
  480. 45:05usually when we take orders we kind of
  481. 45:06snap through them. So I thought I was
  482. 45:08going to get going to get wicked out
  483. 45:09right now but we'll see if it can hold
  484. 45:12and start making its way back up.
  485. 45:18But it's really
  486. 45:22not looking the best to be honest.
  487. 45:44Yeah.
  488. 45:53Yeah.
  489. 46:35There's no sign of any type of buying
  490. 46:39pressure stepping in right here. So,
  491. 46:41it's like
  492. 46:43it's dead and now we're getting selling
  493. 46:45pressure. All right. So, look, we're
  494. 46:48down $1,000. We took two trades and got
  495. 46:52absolutely violated. Honestly,
  496. 46:56we tried to go short here and then we
  497. 46:59tried to go long over here. Just got
  498. 47:02wrecked.
  499. 47:04Realistically,
  500. 47:09we're we're just like inside of this
  501. 47:11range here. I was expecting us to make a
  502. 47:16move.
  503. 47:17So, like if we were going to go lower, I
  504. 47:19was expecting it to actually go lower.
  505. 47:21or if we were going to go higher. I was
  506. 47:23expecting us to actually like go higher,
  507. 47:25of course, and at least take like one of
  508. 47:27these significant swing points, but
  509. 47:31we aren't really having any
  510. 47:33followthrough or momentum with that.
  511. 47:36And I'm already down a,000 bucks on
  512. 47:39these two evals.
  513. 47:43Last night I did finish like half of
  514. 47:45this account, half of this account, half
  515. 47:47of this account, and then we're up 283
  516. 47:51on this account, down 360 on this
  517. 47:54account,
  518. 47:56and then
  519. 47:58yeah, took a L for a,000
  520. 48:02on the evals, but realistically like
  521. 48:07this is not really
  522. 48:10I feel like if I continue to trade this,
  523. 48:12right now
  524. 48:14and if we continue to basically range
  525. 48:17here
  526. 48:19I am going to
  527. 48:22get wrecked. So usually I would just
  528. 48:25risk the entire like when I trade
  529. 48:27evaluations I'll usually just risk the
  530. 48:29entire account for the day.
  531. 48:33Maybe we'll still do that just because
  532. 48:35why not? But
  533. 48:38there's really it's really like kind of
  534. 48:40slow right now.
  535. 48:44This range that we're in is not even
  536. 48:45that big.
  537. 48:49It's like 100 points.
  538. 48:52And we're about 41 minutes into the
  539. 48:55open.
  540. 49:15So, there's a chance that I'm just going
  541. 49:16to stop, but also I'm I'm going to sit
  542. 49:18here for a second
  543. 49:22and I'm going to wait to see if anything
  544. 49:23changes, but probably not. And we'll
  545. 49:26just take our L. We'll take our L on the
  546. 49:29day. Just come back. Some Sometimes it's
  547. 49:32like that. You just take a L.
  548. 49:40And obviously like the L's are going to
  549. 49:41be much bigger on a uh a valuation than
  550. 49:44it is going to be on a funded account
  551. 49:46because
  552. 49:48we're trading them pretty aggressively
  553. 49:49to just try and pass them in two days.
  554. 49:56But it just didn't go in the direction
  555. 49:58we thought it was going to go.
  556. 50:14But what I will say though,
  557. 50:16so far in the past like two weeks of
  558. 50:19streaming,
  559. 50:22we've been pretty on point. I probably
  560. 50:24say that today is probably like one of
  561. 50:25the first days where I was just like
  562. 50:28flat out wrong.
  563. 50:31And that's okay. I gotta
  564. 50:34just work on it.
  565. 51:37What I'm watching for right now is if
  566. 51:39we're actually going to go in a
  567. 51:41direction or if we're going to stay in
  568. 51:43this range right now when this five
  569. 51:46minute closes in 10 seconds or the 15
  570. 51:49minute opens up right
  571. 51:54If we're just going to stay in this
  572. 51:56range,
  573. 52:00I'll probably just
  574. 52:15All
  575. 52:26right, I'm going to try it
  576. 52:28one more time for us to try and target
  577. 52:32the lows. I'll probably actually
  578. 52:36What's it looking like?
  579. 52:42Probably just full port it.
  580. 52:48All right. I think I'm gonna
  581. 52:52I think I'm going to just full port
  582. 52:54this.
  583. 52:56Or where would it need to be? It need to
  584. 52:57be
  585. 53:02way up here.
  586. 53:19Yeah, it would need to be up here.
  587. 53:23Then
  588. 53:28721.
  589. 53:42Yeah, I'm getting cooked right now to be
  590. 53:43honest. But I wouldn't follow don't f
  591. 53:46don't follow any of my trades right now
  592. 53:47because I'm trading an eval. So, I'm
  593. 53:50just trying to full port it to finish
  594. 53:52half of it.
  595. 53:54And then if I blow it, I don't really
  596. 53:56care because I'm buying it with I'm
  597. 53:59buying these evals with profits from my
  598. 54:03payouts this this month.
  599. 54:07So, like I'm net positive by, you know,
  600. 54:11a few thousand dollar this month from
  601. 54:13money I spent on
  602. 54:16uh evals to how much I got in payouts.
  603. 54:21So, I'm net positive and I'm taking some
  604. 54:23of those profits and I'm just full
  605. 54:25porting evals basically trying to
  606. 54:31essentially
  607. 54:34get them to pass. But
  608. 54:38the problem is is like we tried at the
  609. 54:41open to go short. It snapped up. We
  610. 54:43tried to follow the the momentum with
  611. 54:46all this buying pressure. We try to
  612. 54:47follow it long and then it just
  613. 54:49basically died out.
  614. 54:51And then now here we are again at the
  615. 54:52bottom of the range which can very well
  616. 54:54just come right back up. Uh, and we're
  617. 54:58trying to anticipate a break lower,
  618. 54:59which is really, really not a good idea,
  619. 55:01especially when it looks like we're
  620. 55:03about range,
  621. 55:06but
  622. 55:09I'm just going to full port it
  623. 55:14and then target um
  624. 55:17just
  625. 55:21probably 625
  626. 55:45probably just going to add into it
  627. 55:47actually.
  628. 56:48If it hits our stop loss though, we're
  629. 56:50going to basically blow these two evals
  630. 56:54and then we'll just buy some more and do
  631. 56:56it again tomorrow. Well, actually
  632. 56:59tomorrow what I'm going to focus on is
  633. 57:01really actually not eval because I have
  634. 57:03that account I was showing this one.
  635. 57:07I do need to pull a pay out on this one
  636. 57:09so that at least like starting in
  637. 57:11January,
  638. 57:13I'm g start the month off net positive
  639. 57:15by like $1,400.
  640. 57:18So then I could buy more evals and not
  641. 57:21go net negative on the month
  642. 57:27or not. Yeah. Make sure that I can
  643. 57:29manage the funds so that I'm not net
  644. 57:31negative on the month basically like at
  645. 57:34any point during the month.
  646. 57:43And as long as we do that, we could just
  647. 57:45blow accounts. It doesn't matter to be
  648. 57:48honest. As long as
  649. 57:51we're net positive, that's all I care
  650. 57:53about.
  651. 58:04But what I think I'm going to have to do
  652. 58:06though is like
  653. 58:14I think it's probably not a good idea.
  654. 58:16Like I was thinking about this yesterday
  655. 58:18and I'm doing it here today, but
  656. 58:22it's probably not a good idea to full
  657. 58:26port the way that I full pour on a live
  658. 58:29stream because
  659. 58:32I understand that like
  660. 58:35there may be somebody watching the live
  661. 58:37stream that is actually trying to take
  662. 58:39their evaluation kind of seriously. And
  663. 58:43then I know that I say like don't follow
  664. 58:46my trades, but I know people just follow
  665. 58:48the trades anyways and these are not
  666. 58:51trades that you should ever be
  667. 58:53following. So,
  668. 58:56just because like I know that that's why
  669. 58:58people watch live streams, I'll probably
  670. 59:01stop fullporting on live stream and I'll
  671. 59:04probably just fullport on my own time.
  672. 59:07And then when I when I come here and I
  673. 59:10and I stream, I'll just focus only on
  674. 59:12funded accounts
  675. 59:14and take like trades that I would
  676. 59:16actually normally take with a funded
  677. 59:19account.
  678. 59:21I think that's probably
  679. 59:23the best thing to do just so that I
  680. 59:26don't like
  681. 59:29cause people to lose money, right?
  682. 59:35Especially if you don't really get
  683. 59:36payouts and you're still kind of
  684. 59:38learning and
  685. 59:41you should not be trading evaluations
  686. 59:43like how I'm trading in them. like
  687. 59:45you're just going to basically
  688. 59:48lose a bunch of money and then you don't
  689. 59:49if you're not getting payouts, you don't
  690. 59:51have a way to make any of it back. But
  691. 59:53the way that I the way that I think
  692. 59:54about it, right, is like
  693. 59:57let's say these evaluations were like
  694. 1:00:02I don't know 70, let's just say $80,
  695. 1:00:05right? No activation fee. So two of them
  696. 1:00:07is 160 bucks. So, like, let's say I blow
  697. 1:00:10both of these right now, which is
  698. 1:00:11probably what's going to happen. If I
  699. 1:00:13lose $160,
  700. 1:00:16but tomorrow I can take a payout
  701. 1:00:18probably for $1,400,
  702. 1:00:21then who gives a [ __ ] if I lost $160?
  703. 1:00:24It's just part of part of the way that I
  704. 1:00:28build up like funded accounts, right?
  705. 1:00:30But if you're not going to get a payout
  706. 1:00:33and you don't get payouts,
  707. 1:00:37then you shouldn't be full porting. Um,
  708. 1:00:43but the way that I trade evaluations is
  709. 1:00:45like super degenerate
  710. 1:00:47because I don't want to waste time on
  711. 1:00:50evaluations.
  712. 1:00:51It's to me it's honestly a waste of
  713. 1:00:53time. I'd rather just full port them and
  714. 1:00:55if I buy 10 of them and I blow like five
  715. 1:00:58of them and pass five of them, mission
  716. 1:01:00accomplished. I don't I don't really
  717. 1:01:02care. You know what I mean? But yeah, I
  718. 1:01:04think I'm probably though I think I'm
  719. 1:01:07probably going to stop uh doing that
  720. 1:01:09just because like
  721. 1:01:12or maybe we'll have a designated day.
  722. 1:01:13Maybe we'll have a full port Friday
  723. 1:01:15where we can just full port some evals
  724. 1:01:18at the end of the at the end of the
  725. 1:01:19week. But it's probably not a good idea
  726. 1:01:23just out of respect for everybody here
  727. 1:01:25and your guys' money to be blowing
  728. 1:01:27accounts like this and having
  729. 1:01:29potentially somebody follow it.
  730. 1:01:33Yeah, full porting is fine for an eval
  731. 1:01:35for me. That's what I think too because
  732. 1:01:37that's the only I don't that's the only
  733. 1:01:39way I trade evals is I basically
  734. 1:01:40fullport them. I'll give myself like two
  735. 1:01:42trades and if I lose two trades then
  736. 1:01:46um
  737. 1:01:48they're gone, you know.
  738. 1:01:56Damn, you still have old topstep
  739. 1:01:58accounts on trade of eight.
  740. 1:02:01Hey, respect for holding on to that.
  741. 1:02:05You must have been holding those funded
  742. 1:02:08accounts for like
  743. 1:02:12damn months.
  744. 1:02:16Impressive.
  745. 1:02:18So, props to you.
  746. 1:02:22All right, so let's let's since we're
  747. 1:02:25sitting here and it's a little early and
  748. 1:02:26I'm done, I'm not going to trade this
  749. 1:02:28anymore.
  750. 1:02:29Um Oh, using one or two micros. That's
  751. 1:02:32what's up. Yeah, I use um when it when
  752. 1:02:35I'm trading an evaluation, I'll usually
  753. 1:02:38use like
  754. 1:02:40sometimes I'll just use five minis,
  755. 1:02:43sometimes I'll use three minis or like
  756. 1:02:44I'll use one mini, but I'm but when I'm
  757. 1:02:48trading like a funded account, I'm
  758. 1:02:50really only using like five to 10 micros
  759. 1:02:52depending on what's going on or how much
  760. 1:02:54buffer I have.
  761. 1:02:57Like for example, this account, the way
  762. 1:03:01that I made like the 280,
  763. 1:03:04that was using micros, right? Like five
  764. 1:03:06micros.
  765. 1:03:09But yeah, 10 months is a super long time
  766. 1:03:11of holding on to a funded account. So
  767. 1:03:15good stuff. What are the what are the
  768. 1:03:18balance what's the balance on it?
  769. 1:03:35Oh [ __ ]
  770. 1:03:37All right. But I'm going to go over
  771. 1:03:41I'll tell you guys since it's the end of
  772. 1:03:43the month and I'm probably not going to
  773. 1:03:44buy any more accounts the end of the
  774. 1:03:48month. I'll go over basically how much I
  775. 1:03:51spent on evals and how much I've gotten
  776. 1:03:53in payouts for the month, right?
  777. 1:03:57And I write it down every month because
  778. 1:03:59like
  779. 1:04:01that's the whole point. Like sometimes
  780. 1:04:03you'll see people who are like, "Oh,
  781. 1:04:05look at me. I made like $5,000 in
  782. 1:04:08payouts or whatever, but maybe they
  783. 1:04:10spent like $6,000 on evaluations and
  784. 1:04:14fees for the month." So, they're
  785. 1:04:16actually net negative. So, it's not just
  786. 1:04:19about getting a payout, but it's it's
  787. 1:04:21more about like
  788. 1:04:24actually being net positive with firms
  789. 1:04:27because what we're doing, and I've
  790. 1:04:29talked about this before, but what we're
  791. 1:04:30doing is this is like a very gamified
  792. 1:04:33version of of trading, right? like you
  793. 1:04:36would never
  794. 1:04:39you would never trade a live account or
  795. 1:04:41manage your actual capital the way that
  796. 1:04:4599% of people except for me move I guess
  797. 1:04:4999% of people would trade a an
  798. 1:04:52evaluation and there's nothing wrong
  799. 1:04:54with that but it's just because that's
  800. 1:04:56the the game or whatever it is that
  801. 1:04:59we're basically playing right so the
  802. 1:05:02idea is like you're The these prop firms
  803. 1:05:06call you an analyst. And as an analyst,
  804. 1:05:08you have business expenses. And these
  805. 1:05:11business expenses are essentially
  806. 1:05:14evaluations and you know, Trading View
  807. 1:05:17or ATAS subscriptions or data
  808. 1:05:20subscriptions. Those are your business
  809. 1:05:21expenses. And then the payouts are the
  810. 1:05:24income. So, as long as obviously your
  811. 1:05:27business as an analyst is operating at a
  812. 1:05:30net positive income, meaning you have
  813. 1:05:33more income, then you have expenses,
  814. 1:05:36then you're fine. It doesn't matter if
  815. 1:05:38you blow like 10 accounts, 20 accounts,
  816. 1:05:4230 accounts in a month. It doesn't
  817. 1:05:44matter. As long as you're making money
  818. 1:05:46playing this type of game,
  819. 1:05:49realistically, that's all that matters.
  820. 1:05:51So,
  821. 1:05:53you would not trade a live account like
  822. 1:05:54that. But to give you an example of like
  823. 1:05:58what it looks like for me this month,
  824. 1:06:01and this month isn't like the best
  825. 1:06:02month, but it's not the worst month,
  826. 1:06:06um, is so far for this month, I think
  827. 1:06:10I've blown
  828. 1:06:13I have it right here, 12.
  829. 1:06:16I've blown 14 evaluations this month.
  830. 1:06:19Okay. And in those 14 evaluations I've
  831. 1:06:23spent with activation fees and
  832. 1:06:26evaluations and whatever, or actually my
  833. 1:06:29bad, I just blew these two accounts. So
  834. 1:06:30I blew 16 accounts this month.
  835. 1:06:34And uh with all of those fees, I've
  836. 1:06:37spent $2,200
  837. 1:06:40on evaluations. Okay, so valuations and
  838. 1:06:43fees for the month of December. Thrax
  839. 1:06:45trades has spent $2,200.
  840. 1:06:48Now, for payouts,
  841. 1:06:51payouts this month, I've received
  842. 1:06:55$4,800.
  843. 1:06:56Okay? So, if I've received $4,800,
  844. 1:07:00but I spent $2,200,
  845. 1:07:02then the net profit of that is going to
  846. 1:07:05be like $2,600. Okay? Now, of course,
  847. 1:07:10you got to account for like taxes and
  848. 1:07:12[ __ ] but at the end of the day, right,
  849. 1:07:18we're still net positive. So, yeah, we
  850. 1:07:20blew 16 accounts. Sure, we blew uh
  851. 1:07:24two grand in evaluation fees.
  852. 1:07:27Doesn't matter because the payouts cover
  853. 1:07:31all of that. And then at the end of the
  854. 1:07:33month, you end with money in your pocket
  855. 1:07:36and you go and then the goal would be
  856. 1:07:37that you go into next month with funded
  857. 1:07:41accounts so that you don't have to
  858. 1:07:44actually spend as much money. And this
  859. 1:07:47month with the evaluations, I actually
  860. 1:07:49did a lot worse. Like if we were to go
  861. 1:07:50look at
  862. 1:07:52like I'll tell you about um let's see
  863. 1:07:59like the last the last month, right?
  864. 1:08:02So the last month
  865. 1:08:07I spent
  866. 1:08:14$2,948
  867. 1:08:16on evaluations and fees to some people.
  868. 1:08:19Like if you're not making payouts and
  869. 1:08:20you spend three grand a month on evals,
  870. 1:08:23like oh my god, dude.
  871. 1:08:27Like that's terrible, right? But
  872. 1:08:31but I I made let me see 49.50 plus
  873. 1:08:371582 but I made $6,500 in payouts. So
  874. 1:08:42then if we take $6,532
  875. 1:08:45minus our cost
  876. 1:08:48of 29.48,
  877. 1:08:51it puts us at $3,500 net positive on the
  878. 1:08:54month before taxes, of course, gross
  879. 1:08:56net. So,
  880. 1:08:58it's really all that matters at the end
  881. 1:08:59of the day. And so, what I'm doing right
  882. 1:09:02now is actually
  883. 1:09:05for the month of December before I
  884. 1:09:07started buying these accounts and
  885. 1:09:08blowing them or whatever, I was actually
  886. 1:09:11net positive on the month about um
  887. 1:09:193,000 something like $3,200 for the
  888. 1:09:23month. But I'm trying to set myself up
  889. 1:09:25so that next month in January, I don't
  890. 1:09:29have to pay like
  891. 1:09:32$2,000 in fees and then I can only just
  892. 1:09:34focus on payouts, right? So that's why
  893. 1:09:36like I'll buy accounts like this one or
  894. 1:09:40this one or this one and or even this
  895. 1:09:43one that I blew, right? I'll buy all of
  896. 1:09:46those and I'll try and pass them using
  897. 1:09:48the profits from this month. So that
  898. 1:09:50going into next month, like for example,
  899. 1:09:52this account, right?
  900. 1:09:54Hopefully we pass some of those evals.
  901. 1:09:57Hopefully. I mean, I would I would
  902. 1:09:59assume we are going to pass at least one
  903. 1:10:01or two of them. So
  904. 1:10:03then going into next month, I'm going to
  905. 1:10:05have more funded accounts. I don't have
  906. 1:10:08to pay to get funded accounts for the
  907. 1:10:11month. And this account already has a
  908. 1:10:13balance on it. it's already 4 days in.
  909. 1:10:16So, if I make $200 or or $150 or more
  910. 1:10:20tomorrow or January 2nd, then
  911. 1:10:24immediately for the month of January
  912. 1:10:27with spending 0 on prop firms for the
  913. 1:10:30month of January,
  914. 1:10:32we're going to be in the green like for
  915. 1:10:35we'll just say $1,400, right? If we make
  916. 1:10:37150 or 200, we'll take out 50%. We'll be
  917. 1:10:40up like 1,400.
  918. 1:10:43then you can manage your expenses so
  919. 1:10:45that you know you never have to
  920. 1:10:48basically go net negative on the month.
  921. 1:10:51And then as long as you kind of just
  922. 1:10:53like follow that process of
  923. 1:10:58getting payouts, taking the profits from
  924. 1:11:01the payouts to try and get more funded
  925. 1:11:03accounts to then just making sure that
  926. 1:11:05no matter what, like you you're ending
  927. 1:11:07net positive on the month, then that's
  928. 1:11:10how you're going to end up like actually
  929. 1:11:13making money playing a prop firm game,
  930. 1:11:15right?
  931. 1:11:17So,
  932. 1:11:19but you can only do that though if you
  933. 1:11:22get payouts and you get payouts
  934. 1:11:24consistently. I'm not talking about you
  935. 1:11:26just get one payout and then you start
  936. 1:11:28trying to do that because in all reality
  937. 1:11:36Oh, the stream's [ __ ] up.
  938. 1:11:41All right, the stream's [ __ ] up, but
  939. 1:11:43we'll talk about it later. I'mma get
  940. 1:11:45off. I'll talk to you guys more about it
  941. 1:11:47next time.
  942. 1:11:49We blew two accounts today. It is what
  943. 1:11:51it is.
