  3. 1:42All right,
  4. 1:46it's Friday.
  5. 1:48I have a feeling that today
  6. 1:53is going to potentially
  7. 1:59consolidate a little bit at least at the
  8. 2:02New York Open.
  9. 2:05So, we got to be careful. Today, we're
  10. 2:07back to having five funded accounts.
  11. 2:12I'm going to try and not get smoked.
  12. 2:18I also made a pretty large move up
  13. 2:19overnight,
  14. 2:26like 300 points.
  15. 2:32What up, M?
  16. 2:38So, kind of what I'm watching is um
  17. 2:42if if we are going to continue
  18. 2:47I got my eyes on this area a little bit
  19. 2:51for us to retrace some of this move
  20. 2:54higher
  21. 2:56and then come up. Now, if we just like
  22. 2:58end up pumping off the open,
  23. 3:06then I'm watching
  24. 3:08like this area
  25. 3:11in this area
  26. 3:13to see if we're going to actually push
  27. 3:15through it or if we're going to
  28. 3:21Hold on.
  29. 3:25or if we're just going to like rotate in
  30. 3:27between this area. This is a pretty
  31. 3:30large like like let's say if we do end
  32. 3:32up actually rotating in this area. This
  33. 3:34is a pretty large area. So,
  34. 3:39we can still catch some moves, but
  35. 3:44I had this I had this uh box drawn out.
  36. 3:47This is one of my zones.
  37. 3:49We didn't touch into it yesterday,
  38. 3:53but then the move down overnight, we
  39. 3:56pushed into it a little bit and then we
  40. 3:57started rejecting out of it. So,
  41. 4:01we're going to see if this push higher
  42. 4:02is going to continue. But
  43. 4:07just got to be a little bit careful
  44. 4:09about New York open.
  45. 4:18So, we're just going to chill.
  46. 4:23We're going to chill until market open
  47. 4:25and see where
  48. 4:28we are going to go basically.
  49. 4:35And then also, by the way, something
  50. 4:37else I'm watching too is
  51. 4:40on QQQ,
  52. 4:44we're probably going to open somewhere
  53. 4:45pretty close to the 600 level.
  54. 4:51And that's a pretty important like
  55. 4:53psychological level for QQQ.
  56. 4:56And yesterday when we got there on NQ,
  57. 4:58we basically chopped. I mean, I'm sure a
  58. 5:01bunch of people got smoked trying to
  59. 5:02trade this in the PM session.
  60. 5:52So, also
  61. 5:54with this account, the balance isn't
  62. 5:56really that large because we did have a
  63. 5:58couple losing days. So, it's only like
  64. 6:001,500,
  65. 6:02but technically today would be the fifth
  66. 6:04day, but
  67. 6:09I'm not going to worry about it. I need
  68. 6:11the balance to be higher, like closer to
  69. 6:13probably
  70. 6:15at the bare minimum like 2500 3,000
  71. 6:20before I take a payout on this. So maybe
  72. 6:22next week. And then this account is one
  73. 6:25of those accounts that is like the
  74. 6:28consistency rule, but it's a three-day
  75. 6:30payout.
  76. 6:32So I think we'll just try and build both
  77. 6:34of these balances up and take a payout
  78. 6:36at the same time.
  79. 6:42And then I have three Apex accounts. One
  80. 6:44of them, three PA Apex accounts. One of
  81. 6:47them is uh like $1,000 in profit and the
  82. 6:50other two are brand new. I activated
  83. 6:52them yesterday or last night.
  84. 6:57I've never really used Apex like that
  85. 6:59before. So, I am kind of nervous that um
  86. 7:04I'mma build those accounts and they're
  87. 7:05just going to like deny a payout. But
  88. 7:10what can you do? other than not trade
  89. 7:12with them.
  90. 7:21Although I don't think they'll deny a
  91. 7:23payout. I'm not giving them any reasons
  92. 7:24to. So, I guess we'll just have to see
  93. 8:09We have jolts today.
  94. 8:12What the hell? On a Friday
  95. 8:19and Michigan sentiment. Okay. At the
  96. 8:22same time,
  97. 8:28that's going to be interesting. So, we
  98. 8:29got to pay attention to uh the 10:00
  99. 8:31a.m. Eastern candle
  100. 8:35probably, unless we're like
  101. 8:38Yeah.
  102. 8:40That's uh Michigan sentiment and jolts
  103. 8:43at the same time.
  104. 8:49[clears throat]
  105. 8:52Yeah, Eek guy. What I'm kind of
  106. 8:54expecting is like
  107. 8:57for us to potentially
  108. 9:00uh rotate in a balance, but it's like it
  109. 9:03it could be a pretty large balance
  110. 9:04though,
  111. 9:06just like in this area. But this is
  112. 9:08still really large.
  113. 9:11But
  114. 9:14in terms of like a directional
  115. 9:16[clears throat]
  116. 9:17run,
  117. 9:22I mean, this is a big enough range for
  118. 9:23us to trade even if we do stay in this
  119. 9:25area.
  120. 9:27But yeah, in terms of sessions, like
  121. 9:29Asia highs were taken, London highs were
  122. 9:31taken. I'm not expecting us to actually
  123. 9:33come down here
  124. 9:36unless we just like start melting,
  125. 9:38right? But it doesn't really make a lot
  126. 9:41of sense for us to target and make a new
  127. 9:44low.
  128. 9:48At least not yet. At least not until we
  129. 9:51get like all the way down here, right?
  130. 9:58And then in terms of like running
  131. 10:00higher, like let's say if you thought we
  132. 10:02were going to come all the way up here,
  133. 10:03which it would be, I mean, like
  134. 10:09that'd be a crazy move. But if we are
  135. 10:12going to come up here, I mean, we would
  136. 10:13have to get past like this area
  137. 10:17between like eight.
  138. 10:19It's kind of a big area here where I
  139. 10:21don't really think we'll get past it,
  140. 10:22but
  141. 10:25at least not today. So, I'm kind of
  142. 10:28anticipating we stay like basically in
  143. 10:31between here
  144. 10:33and here.
  145. 10:35We do a bunch of random [ __ ]
  146. 10:40But again, that's a very large range, so
  147. 10:42there's still like opportunities to
  148. 10:45take. But the only thing I'm worried
  149. 10:47about though is like if we open
  150. 10:51[clears throat] in the next five minutes
  151. 10:52or eight minutes,
  152. 10:54if we open right here, we're essentially
  153. 10:57opening at um
  154. 10:59600 on QQQ, which I mean, look what
  155. 11:02happened yesterday once we got to 600.
  156. 11:06This is disgusting.
  157. 11:10Prop firms probably made a lot of money
  158. 11:12right here. A lot of resets happened
  159. 11:14from that.
  160. 11:17So, I'm worried that we make this this
  161. 11:19large move up and then what do we do?
  162. 11:20Well, we just
  163. 11:24PM session brings move,
  164. 11:27right?
  165. 11:30Uh, gamma levels. So, there's a bunch of
  166. 11:34different places to uh Oh, yeah. And
  167. 11:36today is Friday the 13th, huh? Yeah,
  168. 11:39Friday the 13th.
  169. 11:41But um
  170. 11:44gamma levels you can use a few different
  171. 11:47platforms. I specifically use this one.
  172. 11:52There's like Gexbot, Spot Gamma,
  173. 11:56Menthor Q,
  174. 11:58and then I use this one. It's called
  175. 12:00Tanuki Trade because I like the UI.
  176. 12:07So, if we're talking gamma levels, then
  177. 12:09like basically what I'm watching for is
  178. 12:10this. Look, I'll show you. So, you can
  179. 12:13see this here, but I also just have it
  180. 12:15printing this data on um
  181. 12:19Whoops. I have it printing this data on
  182. 12:21this. So, like if we're going to open
  183. 12:23here on 600, this is and I'm still like
  184. 12:27I'm not an expert at gamma, by the way.
  185. 12:29I'm learning it. But this is the way
  186. 12:31that I understand this, okay? And I may
  187. 12:33or may not be wrong, but I'm going to
  188. 12:35just say it anyways. 605
  189. 12:38and 595.
  190. 12:42I'm kind of expecting us to stay in
  191. 12:44between here today.
  192. 12:48We have a large put wall. We're opening
  193. 12:50at the gamma flip level. Basically, it's
  194. 12:53a it's a huge psychological number. It's
  195. 12:55600.
  196. 12:57So, it's kind of like um
  197. 13:03kind of like a situation where we may
  198. 13:06have like a large rotation,
  199. 13:09but I guess we'll see. I mean, like this
  200. 13:12is price right now
  201. 13:15sitting at the gamma flip level, which
  202. 13:17is
  203. 13:22should be interesting. What up?
  204. 13:25Thanks, bro. We'll see. We'll hopefully
  205. 13:28not lose all of our money today.
  206. 13:31That's the goal. It's not to
  207. 13:36Today though, I am going to be kind of
  208. 13:37uh careful
  209. 13:40because this isn't It's not really clear
  210. 13:42to me like what potentially we're going
  211. 13:44to
  212. 13:45draw to at the open. It's kind of like,
  213. 13:54yeah, cheesy. This thing is [ __ ]
  214. 13:55sick, dude.
  215. 13:57It's the main reason like on when I did
  216. 13:59a bunch of research
  217. 14:02and um
  218. 14:05I realized cuz you know how they all
  219. 14:06have different model calculations. So
  220. 14:08like all these different places take the
  221. 14:10same data and then they calculate
  222. 14:12differently.
  223. 14:13But I looked at Gexbot and Spot Gamma
  224. 14:17Mentor Q and then uh MZ Trading and all
  225. 14:21these different ones, right? They
  226. 14:23basically all have the same levels. At
  227. 14:25least the levels that I care about,
  228. 14:27which is like call resistance, put
  229. 14:30support, or like the call wall and put
  230. 14:32wall and then the gamma flip level. They
  231. 14:34may be off by like $1 on QQQ, which is
  232. 14:39about 40 points on NQ. So then I was
  233. 14:42like, well, if they all kind of give the
  234. 14:43same data, then I might as well just use
  235. 14:46the one that has like the best um
  236. 14:51user interface.
  237. 14:54So, I like I like that one. And it's
  238. 14:55pretty cheap. It's cheaper than the
  239. 14:57other ones. It's like
  240. 15:0060 or 70
  241. 15:03a month. My bad. 70 a month.
  242. 15:21Yeah, Gex is pretty dope. I've been
  243. 15:24taking a lot of time researching it and
  244. 15:26looking into it. Like I've always for a
  245. 15:28while and I know you've been using it.
  246. 15:32I just like I've been putting it off,
  247. 15:36but it goes hand inhand with order flow.
  248. 15:38So I think it's pretty good to use if
  249. 15:42you're trading orderflow.
  250. 15:44[snorts] I just got to be careful
  251. 15:46because I don't like I'm not like an
  252. 15:48expert on it, right? So, like I gotta
  253. 15:51understand that sometimes when I'm
  254. 15:52reading that stuff, I could be totally
  255. 15:54wrong. But at the end of the day, I'm
  256. 15:56not really using it for entries. I'm
  257. 15:58using it for just a location filter
  258. 16:04to understand like whether the market
  259. 16:07is in a structural like
  260. 16:12if it's likely if we're going to
  261. 16:13basically compress or or expand for the
  262. 16:16day.
  263. 16:17All
  264. 16:26right, we're about to open up here. So,
  265. 16:33Z, I don't I don't I'm not going to
  266. 16:35There's no reason to look at SPX for me
  267. 16:37because
  268. 16:42I traded NQ.
  269. 16:45If I traded ES, I would look at SPX,
  270. 16:50but I think it's better just to look at
  271. 16:52QQQ
  272. 16:54or even NDX, but QQQ.
  273. 16:58What up, Joseph?
  274. 17:10So, if we do push down, just so you guys
  275. 17:12know, I'm watching this area down here,
  276. 17:14like past this low, this little swing
  277. 17:16low. I'm watching this area right here
  278. 17:18to see if we're going to bounce and
  279. 17:19continue back up.
  280. 17:40But today
  281. 17:42I'm probably going to be a little bit
  282. 17:44more passive.
  283. 18:18My data is lagging right now.
  284. 18:27See that? See the difference?
  285. 18:35What numbers? These numbers.
  286. 18:39Look at this.
  287. 18:42It's lagging.
  288. 18:58The
  289. 19:14Is it going to keep lagging?
  290. 19:24Let me see.
  291. 19:31Order filled.
  292. 19:36>> Order filled.
  293. 19:37>> Damn. Are we about to do that right now?
  294. 19:47>> Order filled.
  295. 19:56Order filled.
  296. 20:01>> Dude, are we about to do this right now?
  297. 20:08>> Order filled.
  298. 20:13>> Order filled.
  299. 20:18N Rexer, I don't know if you understand
  300. 20:20what I'm doing right now, but I'm seeing
  301. 20:22the data move before Project X is doing
  302. 20:25it and I'm just scalping.
  303. 20:28I'm basically
  304. 20:32like I know what it's doing. Like I can
  305. 20:34see it. Like if you look at these two
  306. 20:36charts,
  307. 20:38they may sink back up right now, but
  308. 20:42for a while they were like
  309. 20:45they were different,
  310. 20:54but I have to take it off because this
  311. 20:55is I had to take it off uh the copy
  312. 20:59trader because this is just top step. If
  313. 21:02I would have taken this with like Apex
  314. 21:05and [ __ ] I would have gotten [ __ ]
  315. 21:06So, I turned off the copier for a
  316. 21:08second. I just wanted to test it out,
  317. 21:12dude. Cuz I'm not going to cap. There
  318. 21:14was one day I did this and I made 10
  319. 21:16racks
  320. 21:18that I pulled out from payouts. I made
  321. 21:2010 racks, bro.
  322. 21:22So, like,
  323. 21:25I'm just watching it. But I think we're
  324. 21:26going to sink. I think we're syncing up
  325. 21:28now.
  326. 21:38Yeah, we're back to normal. Okay, let me
  327. 21:41turn this back on.
  328. 21:52Dude, there was one day there was one
  329. 21:56day I did that. But like you see how the
  330. 22:00we weren't really moving a lot right
  331. 22:01here. So there wasn't a lot of
  332. 22:02opportunity to try and exploit that. But
  333. 22:05like there was one day we were snapping
  334. 22:08back and forth like [ __ ] crazy and
  335. 22:10there was a delay.
  336. 22:15[snorts]
  337. 22:16That stuff is crazy, dude. So anyways,
  338. 22:19it looks like it's sinking back up to
  339. 22:21each other. So we're going to stop doing
  340. 22:23that.
  341. 22:25But we were able to make a quick 500
  342. 22:27bucks from it.
  343. 22:37If you uh if you didn't know what I was
  344. 22:38doing, that probably looked funny. I was
  345. 22:40just like randomly entering and exiting
  346. 22:42trades.
  347. 22:57I'm sure you could totally get banned
  348. 22:59for doing that, by the way.
  349. 23:07But you know what? I don't give a [ __ ]
  350. 23:10It's not my fault.
  351. 23:13It's not my fault you got a shitty
  352. 23:14platform with lagging data. Like,
  353. 23:19so this open is incredibly slow right
  354. 23:21now.
  355. 23:24We'll see if we pick up speed to the
  356. 23:26downside and come into this area that
  357. 23:27I'm trying to watch for. I'm going to
  358. 23:29draw a little
  359. 23:31watch in this area. Okay.
  360. 23:37If we're going to just like
  361. 23:41mess around right here around 600 on
  362. 23:44QQQ, then
  363. 23:49probably just going to sit on our hands.
  364. 24:11Although since um since that happened, I
  365. 24:15need to be careful what I'm copy trading
  366. 24:17right now because
  367. 24:21the fills for top step and Apex are
  368. 24:24probably going to be different right
  369. 24:26now. So if I move [clears throat] to
  370. 24:28break even on project X, I need to make
  371. 24:31sure that like I move it actually in
  372. 24:33profit just in case if that makes sense
  373. 24:35for my my PA for Apex.
  374. 24:53Why Zo are you trading ES or something?
  375. 24:56Is that why you want me to show you SPX?
  376. 25:06No, it doesn't.
  377. 25:13when it come when it comes to looking at
  378. 25:15gamma levels and under and looking at
  379. 25:17GEX, if I'm trading NQ, I should not be
  380. 25:21looking at S&P. I should be looking at
  381. 25:23QQQ,
  382. 25:26not SPX. If I'm trading ES, I'll look at
  383. 25:30S&P.
  384. 25:32Or you could look at it for like macro
  385. 25:34context because S&P is the S&P 500. But
  386. 25:40for for what what I'm trading on NQ,
  387. 25:43it's more important to look at QQQ, not
  388. 25:46SPX
  389. 26:01because I was I was looking that up
  390. 26:03because I wanted to get um
  391. 26:06I wanted to get V signal. right,
  392. 26:09for the gamma levels, but they only
  393. 26:11offer SPX. So then I was like, can I use
  394. 26:13SPX gamma levels with with me trading
  395. 26:17NQ? I was like looking that up. Said you
  396. 26:20could, but it's not ideal. It's more
  397. 26:22ideal to
  398. 26:26to use QQQ.
  399. 26:32Although, it's probably not a bad idea
  400. 26:33to have it up.
  401. 26:36I just don't have that many screens.
  402. 26:40So, I got to pick and choose
  403. 26:50and Q traders looking at crypto.
  404. 26:56Yeah, the opens have been pretty lame
  405. 26:59recently.
  406. 27:03Like you probably had a bunch of people
  407. 27:05who watched this candle consolidate,
  408. 27:07started to see us break down and people
  409. 27:09tried to chase this right here
  410. 27:12and just got cooked.
  411. 27:18And then who knows? I mean, I'm not
  412. 27:20going to take any positions in here, but
  413. 27:22maybe people are like, "Oh no, that was
  414. 27:23the fake out and we're going long." And
  415. 27:24then like the market's going to we're
  416. 27:27going to start printing up here and then
  417. 27:28snap back.
  418. 27:31Well, it's not about getting It's not
  419. 27:33about getting more screens. It's about
  420. 27:37space,
  421. 27:38you know? Like I have a screen right
  422. 27:40here. You got a screen right here. I got
  423. 27:43a screen right here. I have a screen
  424. 27:45right here. I got one, two, three, four.
  425. 27:48I got four screens in an iPad right now.
  426. 27:51So, we'll call it five screens.
  427. 28:00And the only issue is like OBS and um
  428. 28:04OBS and Discord. Yeah, I'm screened out.
  429. 28:06I'm screened out. OBS and Discord take
  430. 28:10up part of that because I got to make
  431. 28:11sure the stream is chill
  432. 28:15and I got to read your guys' uh
  433. 28:18comments.
  434. 28:41Yeah, that's a good point, Broncos.
  435. 28:43That's a good point.
  436. 29:05>> [snorts]
  437. 29:39>> I think we we I think if we're going to
  438. 29:41continue with this like
  439. 29:44weird
  440. 29:46opening delivery, it may be a better
  441. 29:48idea to wait until the hourly candle
  442. 29:50closes and we have Dude, why is Jolts on
  443. 29:53a Friday?
  444. 30:02Isn't that usually on Tuesdays?
  445. 30:05Or am I tripping?
  446. 30:17Did we miss like jolts or something due
  447. 30:19to like a shutdown for a couple days?
  448. 31:22So, as we're pushing up here though,
  449. 31:27I'm watching between
  450. 31:29well, I'm watching around the 750 area
  451. 31:32and then if I'm watching between 800 and
  452. 31:34850
  453. 31:38to see if we're actually going to push
  454. 31:40through that. If we're just going to
  455. 31:41like push up into it and then turn back
  456. 31:44around
  457. 32:46Short limit at 839.
  458. 32:49It's a pretty good spot.
  459. 32:53I'll keep my eye on it.
  460. 32:57Did you set that one last night?
  461. 33:15Nice.
  462. 33:26Yeah, I'm watching that um area up
  463. 33:29there.
  464. 33:31Like if we push past this right now and
  465. 33:33we start pumping further
  466. 33:39between like 850 area and like
  467. 33:44I'm like watching this area actually a
  468. 33:47little higher
  469. 33:49like here.
  470. 33:52probably.
  471. 34:41Nice.
  472. 34:54Joseph and Choosy caught the longs.
  473. 35:00killing it.
  474. 35:04How big was that?
  475. 35:09Damn.
  476. 36:25Nice.
  477. 36:27Yeah, I'm just waiting.
  478. 36:36So, this this account that I'm on now is
  479. 36:39technically eligible for a payout, but
  480. 36:40it would put me kind of in a shitty
  481. 36:43position. So, I'm not going to take it.
  482. 36:46I'm going just wait for next week.
  483. 36:55And I have that other account I got to
  484. 36:57trade too.
  485. 37:15But I think I might wait for uh
  486. 37:20I think I might just wait for the Friday
  487. 37:23jolts.
  488. 37:26Wait for some jolts and some Michigan
  489. 37:28sentiment.
  490. 37:31See if we start moving around after
  491. 37:33that.
  492. 37:39Oh, it's all good. Chunky monkey
  493. 37:42750. Where is that?
  494. 37:51Why would your entry be all the way up
  495. 37:52here?
  496. 37:57Oh, targeting 800. Oh, gotcha.
  497. 38:42Yeah, that's what I'm watching right
  498. 38:44now, Broncos. But I just um
  499. 38:50I'm going just wait
  500. 39:17Yeah.
  501. 39:27Plus, I don't want to try and get into
  502. 39:29anything. Especially if you're going to
  503. 39:31try and like short it right here and
  504. 39:32then
  505. 39:34we mess around here for like
  506. 39:37I don't know until news and then news
  507. 39:40just rips it up.
  508. 40:01It's at 10:00 a.m. Eastern. For whatever
  509. 40:03reason, we have Jolts today and we have
  510. 40:06Michigan Sentiment.
  511. 40:08Michigan Sentiment is usually on
  512. 40:10Fridays, though, but Jolts is usually on
  513. 40:12Tuesdays.
  514. 40:17So, having them both at the same time is
  515. 40:18kind of weird. All right.
  516. 40:41You know, I've been thinking too is like
  517. 40:43to me it feels like these opens recently
  518. 40:45have been slow, but I was thinking about
  519. 40:48it for a little bit and I was wondering
  520. 40:50if um just like the past month if it's
  521. 40:53just been so high in terms of volatility
  522. 40:57that because technically The ATR on
  523. 41:00these candles is like 40 points right
  524. 41:02now for
  525. 41:06it. Just feels slow,
  526. 41:09which is weird.
  527. 41:21This entire week, the overnight the
  528. 41:23overnight sessions have been making the
  529. 41:25moves, the big ones.
  530. 41:31Like I think almost every day this week
  531. 41:33when I've drawn out a level I wanted to
  532. 41:35watch for during New York, it was hit
  533. 41:36during London.
  534. 41:39Perfect example of it is today. This
  535. 41:41one.
  536. 41:44I know this is a large ass area though,
  537. 41:46but still
  538. 41:52it's like an hourly level I have.
  539. 41:59Yeah, there was that uh two nights ago
  540. 42:02Asia had a really good move. I was
  541. 42:03waiting for us to
  542. 42:10I was waiting for us to break below this
  543. 42:12for like the longest time basically all
  544. 42:14week and then we did it during Asia.
  545. 43:20All right, we'll wait. We're 5 minutes
  546. 43:22away from uh news. We'll just wait.
  547. 47:16I hope that when this hourly candle
  548. 47:20comes out that we start like picking up
  549. 47:22some speed
  550. 47:24and direction.
  551. 47:28I mean, we will at first because it's
  552. 47:29news. I'm I'm assuming, but hope it
  553. 47:32continues.
  554. 48:23Bro,
  555. 48:26[laughter]
  556. 48:27that's what we waited for. Sick.
  557. 48:57That was a really weak
  558. 49:00I mean those are jolts in Michigan
  559. 49:02sentiment usually actually will usually
  560. 49:05push the market a little bit
  561. 49:09at least it does it it would like last
  562. 49:12month that was kind of like nothing.
  563. 49:18Look at the volume. Only 9,000 contracts
  564. 49:21traded in it.
  565. 49:27Very antilimatic.
  566. 50:24Order filled. I'm going to try out some
  567. 50:26shorts right here, but
  568. 50:30I want to see us dig deeper, but
  569. 50:36we may end up just like snapping around
  570. 50:38in a range.
  571. 50:41And I bottom tick. That seems to be a uh
  572. 50:45a recurring theme here.
  573. 50:48Bottom taking some [ __ ] in the wrong
  574. 50:51direction.
  575. 50:52Try and take it back towards the open.
  576. 50:56If we get a like a little push, I'm
  577. 50:59going to just have to move it to break
  578. 51:00even
  579. 51:04and I'm going to hold it towards opening
  580. 51:07price basically.
  581. 51:56Just in case my apexes got filled
  582. 51:58somewhere else, I'm going to actually
  583. 51:59move it right here
  584. 52:02so they don't get stopped out and like
  585. 52:06for a loss.
  586. 52:14Order filled.
  587. 52:16All right, it's fine.
  588. 52:28Honestly, if we continue having like
  589. 52:33this like slow uh
  590. 52:37PA, I'm probably just going to stop
  591. 52:41and I'll just come back on Monday.
  592. 53:17Well,
  593. 53:27one of the reasons why I moved my stop
  594. 53:28to break even is just cuz I was watching
  595. 53:31this right here.
  596. 53:33It's a low volume, this low volume node
  597. 53:36and the candle that pushed up initially.
  598. 53:39I needed to see it like
  599. 53:42really break past it,
  600. 53:46but we kind of started. We stole it out
  601. 53:48right there.
  602. 53:51We might still break past it and then
  603. 53:53come down here towards opening price
  604. 53:55again, which is
  605. 53:58right here. I think it's right here.
  606. 54:20I'm actually curious where it filled my
  607. 54:21top my Apex accounts. Okay, we're chill.
  608. 54:26We're chill.
  609. 56:39Bro, is anyone trading this right now?
  610. 56:44Technically, I could have kept my one to
  611. 56:47one.
  612. 56:51I'm just not I'm not feeling it.
  613. 56:55The NQ vibes are not there for me right
  614. 56:57now.
  615. 59:02All right,
  616. 59:04let's see if uh Oh, great. Now my data
  617. 59:07is getting delayed.
  618. 59:10All right, it's back.
  619. 59:16See if we start picking up some speed
  620. 59:18now.
  621. 59:23We actually do something.
  622. 59:46came right back. Oh, wait. This is
  623. 59:48opening prize.
  624. 1:00:53Damn the
  625. 1:00:56the short order the short limit order at
  626. 1:00:59839
  627. 1:01:01painful. Just a little little off.
  628. 1:01:06Might come up there later though.
  629. 1:01:15for big rig.
  630. 1:01:59So, right now on QQQ, we're just
  631. 1:02:01floating around 600.
  632. 1:02:08So, I'm trying to see if we're going to
  633. 1:02:12stay above 600, if we're going to start
  634. 1:02:14breaking below it.
  635. 1:03:43Thank you.
  636. 1:04:32I'm going to try and go long right here.
  637. 1:04:34>> Order filled.
  638. 1:04:38>> See if we're going to start pushing back
  639. 1:04:39up. My stop's just going to be at the
  640. 1:04:41bottom of this candle. I think if I get
  641. 1:04:43stopped out of it, I'm just going to
  642. 1:04:44stop trading.
  643. 1:05:02order filled.
  644. 1:05:05>> Cooked.
  645. 1:05:09All right. So,
  646. 1:05:16I'm up 347 on
  647. 1:05:20one account, this funded account,
  648. 1:05:24and then actually, we're going to wait a
  649. 1:05:27little bit. I'll sit here and I'll wait
  650. 1:05:29a little bit. I'm down 260
  651. 1:05:32on the other accounts.
  652. 1:07:18Uh, this is a five minute and this is 15
  653. 1:07:23minute.
  654. 1:07:24I'll change I'm going to change it to
  655. 1:07:26the five minute.
  656. 1:07:31I may I'm gonna wait for this five
  657. 1:07:34minute candle and then I'm
  658. 1:07:36Wait a second. Does this say I'm in a
  659. 1:07:38position right now? Hold on.
  660. 1:07:48Oh [ __ ]
  661. 1:07:53Wait, what?
  662. 1:08:01says that.
  663. 1:08:05Dude, it's tripping right now. Hold on.
  664. 1:08:07Let me disable this [ __ ]
  665. 1:08:10Let me just flatten everything.
  666. 1:08:13Says that the positions open on this
  667. 1:08:15account.
  668. 1:08:17I don't have a position open on this
  669. 1:08:19account.
  670. 1:08:23Kind
  671. 1:08:27of sketchy though, huh?
  672. 1:08:48It's throwing me off. It says I'm in an
  673. 1:08:50unrealized uh It says I have unrealized
  674. 1:08:52P&L right now
  675. 1:09:04on Apex. No, it says um
  676. 1:09:08so like I could see
  677. 1:09:11um unrealized PNO.
  678. 1:09:14I know you guys can't see it, but it's
  679. 1:09:16showing that the one that's in a
  680. 1:09:18position currently still is the Express
  681. 1:09:21account that I'm currently looking at on
  682. 1:09:24Project X, which
  683. 1:09:28it's not. You know what I mean? Like,
  684. 1:09:31does this account? It's not
  685. 1:09:44>> [snorts]
  686. 1:13:36>> Am I consistently profitable? [laughter]
  687. 1:13:41I'd say so.
  688. 1:13:45Yeah.
  689. 1:13:47Although I did I did like blow up some
  690. 1:13:49accounts uh at the beginning of this
  691. 1:13:51month, but we're back to having five
  692. 1:13:53funded, so
  693. 1:13:55we should be chill.
  694. 1:14:03Although [clears throat] this uh past
  695. 1:14:05couple weeks have been kind of rough for
  696. 1:14:06me because of the way New York opens
  697. 1:14:08been moving.
  698. 1:14:10So that's been going on.
  699. 1:14:43advice for someone who trades Eval good
  700. 1:14:48but the funded accounts horribly. Well,
  701. 1:14:52how are you trading your evals and
  702. 1:14:54what's your definition of trading them
  703. 1:14:56good?
  704. 1:15:02Dude, honestly, I hope that this thing
  705. 1:15:04goes down because that's going to be
  706. 1:15:05disappointing if I if I went long right
  707. 1:15:09here. What What was my position? I was
  708. 1:15:10like long right here with my stop like
  709. 1:15:13right here or something.
  710. 1:15:19[snorts]
  711. 1:15:23Well, yeah. I mean, it just depends how
  712. 1:15:24you're trading your evals. Like just
  713. 1:15:26because just because you uh passed your
  714. 1:15:29evals
  715. 1:15:32doesn't mean that you traded them good
  716. 1:15:34if that makes sense.
  717. 1:15:41So I guess it depends what you mean by
  718. 1:15:42good.
  719. 1:15:44Uh NQ NQ I should have
  720. 1:15:48given it a bigger stop loss maybe. Nah,
  721. 1:15:51not convinced. I'm I'm going to hope it
  722. 1:15:52[laughter]
  723. 1:15:53I'm going to hope it go. We do have the
  724. 1:15:5415-minute that's going to close pretty
  725. 1:15:56soon, which is also 30 minute. So,
  726. 1:15:58halfway through the the hourly, we're
  727. 1:16:00going to see if we pick up a little bit
  728. 1:16:02of speed. Today's been really slow,
  729. 1:16:05though, in my opinion.
  730. 1:16:26sticking to the rules. Good RR, but when
  731. 1:16:28I get past when I get on a funded, I
  732. 1:16:31take like 20 trades a day.
  733. 1:16:36Well, I know I know this is
  734. 1:16:40you said you want advice. I know this is
  735. 1:16:42probably not what you want to hear, but
  736. 1:16:46stop doing that.
  737. 1:16:48Like, I don't know what what you know
  738. 1:16:50what I mean. Like you're probably
  739. 1:16:51thinking about your funded account too
  740. 1:16:53hard.
  741. 1:16:55You're like, Glenn, it gets to your
  742. 1:16:57head. Going going going from three
  743. 1:16:59trades a day on an EVO
  744. 1:17:02to going to 20 trades a day on your
  745. 1:17:05funded account. You're trading it
  746. 1:17:07completely differently.
  747. 1:17:11So it's like why why are you doing that?
  748. 1:17:12Well, probably because you see that
  749. 1:17:15you're in a funded account, your heart's
  750. 1:17:16racing. You're like, "Oh, I can actually
  751. 1:17:18make money." And then you just start
  752. 1:17:19making like emotional decisions.
  753. 1:17:24How about you just try moving forward on
  754. 1:17:26your funded accounts to
  755. 1:17:30limit yourself to three trades a day
  756. 1:17:33just like you were with your evals.
  757. 1:17:51But yeah, I mean, you obviously know
  758. 1:17:52what the problem is, right?
  759. 1:17:55There's only so much I can tell you. It
  760. 1:17:56really just comes down to you just to to
  761. 1:18:00kind of stop self-sabotaging yourself.
  762. 1:18:09I don't know what firm you're using, but
  763. 1:18:11some firms have those um
  764. 1:18:20some firm some firms have those
  765. 1:18:22platforms with like the risk settings.
  766. 1:18:26I mean, you can try and utilize those,
  767. 1:18:28you know what I mean?
  768. 1:18:34To protect yourself from yourself.
  769. 1:18:54Should you switch to Topep? I mean, you
  770. 1:18:57should use whatever firm you want to
  771. 1:18:59use. I use Topep, but I also use other
  772. 1:19:02firms, too.
  773. 1:19:11The main thing I'm looking for when I'm
  774. 1:19:12trading a prop firm is just like
  775. 1:19:16end of day draw down,
  776. 1:19:18a decent payout
  777. 1:19:20cap if possible,
  778. 1:19:24be able to pass in a day or two. Damn,
  779. 1:19:27dude. I uh
  780. 1:19:30that sucks.
  781. 1:19:34It took me out.
  782. 1:19:41I just went in a little too early.
  783. 1:19:44Just need to wait for that last push
  784. 1:19:46down
  785. 1:19:55>> or had a bigger stop. But
  786. 1:20:21How big is it from where I entered?
  787. 1:20:33like 50 points.
  788. 1:20:36How big was my stop?
  789. 1:20:4025 points basically.
  790. 1:20:44Fried.
  791. 1:20:48What up, Rocket?
  792. 1:21:07All right, I think I'm going to just
  793. 1:21:08stop.
  794. 1:21:10Not feeling it. Although,
  795. 1:21:14just a little bit of a recap.
  796. 1:21:18We were coming I forgot where I Where
  797. 1:21:20did I try and go short? I think it was
  798. 1:21:22right here.
  799. 1:21:24Went short somewhere here. We went like
  800. 1:21:2625 points in profit and then it hit me
  801. 1:21:28at break even. I tried to go long right
  802. 1:21:31here.
  803. 1:21:32Took it a little bit early.
  804. 1:21:35Um had like a 25 point stop.
  805. 1:21:39Made a last push down. Then it made us
  806. 1:21:41move up.
  807. 1:21:44We're down. We're up $347
  808. 1:21:46on this account, this Topstep account.
  809. 1:21:49And then we're down like 250 260 on the
  810. 1:21:52other ones.
  811. 1:21:55I have a meeting in a little bit, so I'm
  812. 1:21:57probably just going to uh call it a day.
  813. 1:22:00So I'll be back on Monday. If you're
  814. 1:22:03going to continue trade, just be
  815. 1:22:05careful.
  816. 1:22:06We'll catch you guys later.
