1:02All right,
1:05we're going to copy trade some Apex
1:07Evals today.
1:09Let's
1:11try not to blow five at the same time.
1:15We'll see.
1:26I'm going use smaller size.
1:29I'm copy trading them through Tracopia
1:31right now.
1:53also
1:55smaller size. Yeah. Also, I got a new
1:57webcam, so hopefully it's better.
2:01Hopefully I look hopefully I look more
2:02handsome
2:06in my uh
2:11hopefully it's a better quality.
2:14I look whiter.
2:19Yeah,
2:22I might need to mess with
2:24[clears throat] it a little bit, but
2:30but um
2:34yeah, I needed a new one cuz my other
2:35one was old and it was uh had a lot of
2:39it was kind of grainy.
3:01>> [snorts]
3:02>> Yeah. So, I have I had that one eval
3:05with top step that I think earlier this
3:09week in the morning we hit daily loss
3:11limit on it.
3:13So, it was back to like a $500 balance.
3:16Um,
3:18I ended up actually.
3:22Let me see if I can show you.
3:27I ended up taking a long. It was this
3:30one. So, it's at $2,000 balance now. I
3:32took a long
3:36right here
3:39during the opening of Tokyo.
3:45So, we're going to work on that. We do
3:48have this eval or this funded account,
3:51but I'm not going to trade that today.
3:53Or I might. But I kind of want to
3:58I kind of want to um
4:01test out this five. I'm going to try and
4:03trade this five pack of Apex accounts.
4:11You could technically pass them in one
4:12day, but
4:15I don't know. I'm gonna just probably
4:19take uh maybe take today
4:23and
4:25trade some EVOs and then I got to start
4:26trading the funded accounts because,
4:30you know, I've been kind of in Eval
4:31mode. I've been in Eval mode this this
4:34week
4:35just trying to trade EVLs.
4:39Got a couple funded though, so
5:05We did have a pretty clean CPI though.
5:08Honestly, we could have
5:11could have tried to trade it, huh? We
5:13could have we could have traded it.
5:21We honestly could have just passed all
5:22these uh
5:25we could have passed all the Apex
5:26accounts.
5:31I was kind of expecting this CPI to be
5:33kind of sketchy though.
5:52So if we do if we do push down towards
5:55the open though, um I will be watching
5:58to see if we actually come back to
5:59revisit data lows. Have it marked out
6:02here. And if we continue selling, then
6:04we're probably taking these lows and
6:05potentially rotating lower. if we start
6:08pushing up off the open,
6:10you know, we did we we did kind of grind
6:12down from the overnight. So,
6:17not necessarily a grind down, but we did
6:19move down from the overnight. We did
6:21leave Asia highs and London highs. The
6:23only thing is just that what I'm kind of
6:25watching for today or what I'm paying
6:27attention to is we did take pretty
6:29meaningful structure from May and it was
6:33kind of like a sweep. Um, and we're kind
6:36of holding. So, there is a chance that
6:39we push up, but we're not necessarily
6:42flipping back to being bullish until we
6:44really kind of get back above here in my
6:47opinion. So, we could always just, you
6:50know, have this move down, pop up, come
6:53up here, and then put in another lower
6:55high before the real rotation lowers.
6:57So,
7:01I'm keeping that in mind.
7:12But the uh the gamma profile today is
7:15actually pretty weird.
7:19We um
7:21we have call and put wall and NQ sitting
7:24right next to each other and it's
7:26technically in like um
7:32it we're flipping. It's like you have
7:34these zero gamma levels that are kind of
7:36within this negative gamma structure or
7:39profile currently.
7:44>> Dude, I wish I could change the color of
7:46these because I'm color blind.
7:49It's hard to tell.
7:51Greens and reds for me. I wish I could
7:54change it to like blue and yellow or
7:56something.
7:57They need to add a color blind assist.
8:02Where where can I change it, Eddie?
8:09Open settings. Settings
8:17at the top.
8:21At the top.
8:26Am
8:28I tripping?
8:41I'm going figure it out later. Market's
8:43about to open. But yeah, I need to
8:44change this so that it's not blue and uh
8:47red and green.
8:56Oh, where where's the settings at? Where
8:58do I go?
9:06>> Uhhuh.
9:08Oh, open chart settings.
9:14Where? I'm at the top.
9:22Where's it at?
9:29>> All right, it's all good. The I'll just
9:31leave it like this. The market's about
9:32to open anyways. So,
9:35yeah, we're going to have to fix that.
9:40I need to change them because if you
9:41guys have noticed, none of my candles
9:43are blue and green or red and green.
9:46There's a reason for that.
9:55just go on your phone and drive.
10:02Yeah, the key the key area early on
10:04though is definitely going to be um
10:07see what happens around here around the
10:09put wall or if we're going to go attack
10:11data lows
10:21saw Tik Tok live trader longing. All
10:23right, let's go short then.
10:34What up, Joseph?
10:37I'm expecting uh us to be a little
10:39volatile today, though. So, not in terms
10:42of making a massive move like what
10:44happened yesterday. I mean, it might
10:46happen again, but more so just in the
10:48sense of like really large candles. So,
11:05And if we do continue to push up, I'm
11:06looking for us to take London highs and
11:08make our way up into here to determine
11:10if we're actually going to take Asia
11:12highs and come into the HVL.
11:14But we're going to wait for a second.
12:12Oh, my bad. That thing was up on the
12:15screen.
12:45This is a pretty uh
12:47pretty nasty whiplash on this candle.
12:50It's happening right now.
13:03Oh, need to be on the chart.
13:10All right, we we'll I'm going to do that
13:12later. I'm going do it later.
13:22I might this morning I might wait for us
13:24to kind of
13:26>> get out of this area.
13:32I don't I've actually never seen it
13:35recently
13:37where the call wall and the put wall
13:40being in negative game of territory with
13:42the call wall and the put wall at least
13:44for Tanuki's platform
13:48being right next to each There.
14:12Get out.
14:23Looks like we're about to break down
14:24though.
14:38I just find this whole area right here
14:40just like kind of
14:43kind of sketchy for me to trade.
14:53It opened a thousand instances and
14:55crashed your PC.
14:58That's crazy.
15:17Yo, what up Apex?
15:24So, right now, if we're going to drop
15:26lower, I'm watching
15:29currently where the put wall is sitting
15:30and then obviously if we get lower,
15:32we're coming down. I'm looking at data
15:34lows, but it's probably going to happen
15:36in a single candle.
15:40>> [clears throat]
15:52>> What up, Bazooka?
15:57So, I'm watching right here. There may
15:59be an opportunity to try and do a
16:03momentum try and play off the momentum
16:06to the downside if we are going to
16:07target data lows. But I'm just worried
16:10about us whiplashing within here
16:14because it's a very large area at this
16:17point. I mean it's almost 200 points.
16:23Damn, that's nasty.
18:38I'm thinking of just probably waiting a
18:40little bit. Waiting for this to settle
18:43down slightly.
18:55Oh
19:14So, we just took London highs.
19:19I'm watching it when we come up into
19:21this area what it's looking like if
19:23we're going to just really push through
19:26it and continue into
19:28Asia highs and then the HVL or if we're
19:30going to um
19:58if we're going to just pop up and then
19:59start pummeling back down.
21:53It's looking kind of gross, honestly.
22:30This area is almost a thousand ticks,
22:32almost 250 points, and we're just
22:35running back and forth in between it.
24:18All
24:33right. So, as we kind of push up into
24:35here, I'm going to start
24:38paying attention to see if we're
24:39actually going to continue or not.
24:45Because if we're going to just have
24:46like, you know, buying pressure just
24:50continue, [clears throat]
24:52we're probably coming up to Asia highs.
25:16Long at 955. Nice.
25:28Yeah. today since
25:32dude the ATR is uh pretty large. So
25:36you really don't need um a lot of size
25:40today
25:42like at all.
25:52Even five micros for a lot of accounts
25:55is
25:57you'll you'll you'll easily, you know,
25:59turn that into thousand trades or if
26:04you're not careful, $1,000 losses.
26:42We might continue
26:45this pump.
26:47How far away is Asia High? like 100
26:49points.
27:18Yeah, this is pretty volatile,
27:21Joseph. Just got to catch a fire entry
27:25and use smaller size. Maybe
27:32it's moving pretty fast.
27:38It's a good day to try and trade these
27:40Apex accounts. If I if I catch the right
27:42trade, we could probably pass all five
27:44of them. Or we could make a mistake and
27:47blow all five of them.
28:16It's about a pump.
28:18We're about a pump
28:20deeper.
28:32Maybe we just
28:36Oh, no. It's looking like it wants to
28:38take Asia highs, honestly.
29:34All right,
29:39it's a banger trade, Choosy. Let's go.
29:41Is that two micros?
29:44700 ticks with two micros. Banger
29:49generational long.
29:56Hell yeah. That's awesome.
30:02We still haven't taken We got pretty
30:05close.
30:12This is the other uh positive note on
30:14the profile right now for gamma.
30:17We just tapped into it.
30:33Damn DS. DS is a beast.
30:38Have I ever used heat map? Yeah.
30:41Mean this.
30:42Yeah,
30:44for sure.
30:58There just hasn't really been uh
31:03an opportunity for me trying to trade
31:05it.
31:11But we got a lot of time. Still pretty
31:13early in the morning.
31:20With the type of volatility that we
31:22have, all I need is one solid trade.
31:25That's really it.
31:31Do I use it often? I use it every day.
31:36Use it every day.
32:11Damn DS. Did you get edged on that?
32:14Did you get edged on that one?
32:31The white bars on the side is the depth
32:33of market expressed as levels.
32:56Damn, that sucks.
32:58Took you out of that.
33:12Yeah, I'm not convinced that we're
33:13really going down yet.
33:34Yeah, for sure. DS, you've had some fire
33:36trades.
35:46I'm trying to see right now if we're
35:49really going to end up falling back down
35:50and then eventually
35:54coming down to this area or if we're
35:56just breathing real quick before we go
35:58run Asia. highs.
36:01We do have the hourly candle and the 4
36:04hour opening up. So, it's kind of what
36:06I'm I'm waiting for. I don't really like
36:09to get into a trade before that candle
36:10opens. Uh or at least like five minutes
36:12before it opens
36:18at least on a day like today where we're
36:20kind of
36:22we're kind of volatile right now.
36:26ATR for fiveminute candles at least for
36:28the Trading View indicator is saying
36:29that we're at a 96.5 minute candle.
36:38Yeah, that's what I'm kind of watching
36:40right now. Um, Gerbin,
36:45hope I said that right. Gerbin.
38:36These candles are huge. I might have to
38:38drop to one minute for execution
38:41cuz five minute candles are all over 100
38:43points right now. The ATR is actually,
38:45look at this
38:47on Trading View for five minute. It's
38:51insane.
38:54We're going to have to try and snipe an
38:55entry on the one minute time frame.
39:26But we have the 4 hour but open right
39:27now. So we're going to see what happens.
39:40If if the 4hour opens up and we make a
39:44push like a push immediately down and we
39:47begin to see sellers fail and buying
39:49pressure step back in, I'll probably try
39:50to take a long Asia highs.
40:05Unless we just um really have a lot of
40:09follow through to the downside, then
40:13there's a lot of pressure and momentum.
40:15I might just um
40:19we'll see. We'll see. It's kind of
40:20moving fast. There hasn't really been
40:23any
40:27anything for me.
40:33Although I feel like this is going to
40:35probably push lower first on the hourly.
40:45Something.
42:29So, I'm trying to see right now if we're
42:30really going to push or if this is about
42:31to be a failed attempt lower and we're
42:32about to start ripping up again.
42:46I'm going to try it with four micros,
42:49but I'm having a really tight stop loss,
42:56which probably going to get wrecked
42:59unless we start seeing that buying
43:02pressure start stepping in.
43:05I need this candle to start flipping
43:06bullish.
43:11the five minute at least to start
43:12flipping bullish.
43:24All right, I'm going to move break even
43:25and we're just going to because we need
43:28to get past the uh PC of the five
43:30minute. So,
43:33we can push up pretty strong here.
43:37caught a pretty good entry.
43:40We're going to try and hold it up for
43:43Asia highs if we're going to get follow
43:45through.
43:50Yeah, I went in four micros. So,
43:56I'm not going to trail stop. I'm just
43:57going to leave it at break even. We're
43:59going to try and just let it run.
44:02Give it some breathing room. It might
44:03snap back, but
44:09Just let her go.
44:24I'm not going to put a hard TP, but I am
44:27going to
44:29I want to see what happens up here in
44:31this area. Um,
44:34I may start trailing stop a little bit.
44:37We We'll lock in a little bit of profit.
44:39Honestly,
44:48where do we get in? 29,04.
44:5229,04.
44:54That was a quick 100 points. That thing
44:56happened fast.
44:58Let's just not chop here.
45:02Let's just continue, please.
45:12You know what I'm actually going to do?
45:13Um,
45:15if this flips bullish, I'm going to add
45:17into it with two micros and trail stop
45:21right below these sellers if they're
45:24going to fail.
45:28See if we get like a further
45:30squeeze up.
45:35Actually, I should probably put it above
45:36the P.
45:40Nah,
45:51it's the new five minute. So if the
45:53fiveminute flip's bullish then we will
45:56add into it
45:59and trail stop right below five minute
46:01wick if it will be a wick and we don't
46:03just slam all the way back down.
46:34All right. Unfortunate.
46:41We got in a pretty good entry and then
46:43it went 100 points in a profit and then
46:45we're kind of
46:48like
46:50whiplashing a little. I still think it's
46:51going to go up, but I just
46:55I'm kind of copy trading five accounts
46:57right now, so I got to just be kind of
46:58careful.
47:07I kind of messed up though. I tr that I
47:09tr that stop a little bit too
47:10aggressively. I should have left it at
47:13um
47:15at where it was.
47:18No,
47:21we're just gonna have to let it It just
47:24gave my gave my uh my trailing stuff a
47:27little kiss on the cheek
47:30and it's just going to continue. Uh bad
47:33trade management. That was bad trade
47:34management.
47:37[snorts]
47:44I mean, the idea was there though,
47:46right? We we talked about it. We were
47:48saying that when the hourly opens up, if
47:49we push lower and start to see sellers
47:51fail, we're going to try and go long to
47:54target Asia highs. We caught actually
47:56pretty good entry.
47:59We did start kind of really aggressively
48:01moving to the upside.
48:11It was just uh sloppier
48:14management because when I when I when I
48:16first got in, I was saying how I should
48:18leave stop at break even because I
48:20needed to give it room to kind of
48:22breathe and then as
48:24we continued, I kind of tightened it
48:28because when we have a really large ATR,
48:30I mean, things can easily kind of
48:31whiplash around before they end up
48:34[snorts] working at
48:42Um, was I looking to exit at Asia Highs
48:44or let it run? I was [snorts]
48:47I didn't have a hard TP. The target was
48:49um
48:51the target was Asia Highs because it was
48:53like from entry I think
48:5729,04.
49:00It's like 160 points. Um,
49:04I I was probably going to get out of
49:06Asia highs. I was going to see what
49:07happened, though. I was going to start
49:08trailing stop the moment we started
49:10approaching
49:12I was going to start trailing stop
49:13actually pretty aggressively the moment
49:15we started approaching um up here.
49:21But now I'm kind of concerned
49:24um if we're going to do this.
49:28I really would hope that we do continue
49:30this push up. Otherwise, it's going to
49:32be kind of like a nastier. I don't want
49:35us to whiplash right here is my point.
49:37But I do think we're probably going to
49:39actually come up here.
50:01Yeah, there they go.
50:03We fumbled.
50:13Oh, that was like the only entry I'll
50:14probably get this morning. Kind of
50:17messed it up.
50:25Oh, that's a nice entry. Cheesy.
50:32Uh, do I ever partial? Um,
50:37rarely.
50:39Rarely.
50:41I'll add into winners and I'll hold
50:43Wait, hold on.
51:26I'm saying it for we're just making a
51:27wake down before we just really start
51:29shooting up again.
51:32[snorts]
51:45The only thing that's slightly
51:46concerning if I try and go long up here
51:48is we're we're longing straight into a
51:53positive gamma node which is slightly
51:55sketchy.
52:01It'll probably just go without me. I'm g
52:03sit that one out.
52:12What up, Rebel?
52:16Uh, I think it's like
52:20I don't know, like 100 bucks.
52:28Oh, the screenshot curse. trail it out
52:32after taking the screenshot.
52:36Yeah, I was I was looking to see because
52:37we didn't we haven't taken it yet,
52:39right? We open up on the five minute. We
52:43immediately start pushing lower, but
52:46[cough] that [clears throat] I wasn't
52:48convinced in that. So, I was considering
52:50trying to re-enter into the longs down
52:52here.
52:55I think it's better if we just don't do
52:58that
52:59because we would be entering, you know,
53:01right here is in the middle of this
53:07200 point area. You know what I mean?
53:18Yeah. Spot Gamma is kind of expensive.
53:22I think they're like $200 or $300 a
53:24month or something.
54:08$70 a month. There you go.
54:14And you know what's cool is that uh so I
54:18was talking to the Tanuki team
54:20yesterday.
54:22They mentioned that the um the replay
54:24mode is coming out.
54:27So you can do like a
54:30you like back test with their web
54:33platform.
54:34Whoa, what's happening? So it should be
54:37that should be pretty cool.
55:14Yeah, use code never flat if you guys
55:17are going to do it. Going to get it.
55:21>> Yeah, I have big trades in ATS. Yeah,
55:28>> it's getting a little messy in this
55:30area.
55:32It's getting a little messy.
56:05Dude, these five packs with uh these
56:08five packs with Apex are dangerous,
56:10dude. [laughter]
56:13I don't I don't usually trade with Apex,
56:15but I was talking to one of uh I was
56:17talking to Mike Zones and he was telling
56:19me you can get five end of day trailing
56:2350ks for 190 bucks and I was just like,
56:29you know, I'm trying to build build up
56:30my um
56:33yeah, I do have a code for Tanuki trade.
56:36It's never flat. It's it's it's this
56:37here. I'll type it to you.
56:42That's the code. You'll get 10 like 10%
56:44off.
56:50Yeah, that the replay mode is what I'm
56:52excited for because
56:55um
56:56I think that's pretty cool because the
56:59thing about the thing about Tanuki is
57:01they have these uh you know they they do
57:06intraday like they
57:10They update like every couple minutes.
57:12So, their replay mode, you're going to
57:14see on the zero DTE how the positioning
57:17is adjusting as price is moving around,
57:19which I think is important to
57:22kind of spend a little bit of time doing
57:25the replay. And then they're like
57:27collecting data as it kind of
57:31goes forward. So, I think you can only
57:32go back in the beginning to May 26th
57:36and then every day following is going to
57:38be able to be replayed, which should be
57:41pretty useful.
57:48Would I trade these evals with Ninja
57:50Trader? Copy trader. Uh, I use Tracopia.
58:00So, I'm just I'm kind of sitting on my
58:03hands right now because
58:06we're
58:08we're having some nastiness happen right
58:10now. Um,
58:16yeah, we're we're spending a lot of time
58:19here.
58:21Volume's building here. We're probably
58:23just building value here, balancing out
58:24for a moment.
58:26There may be a pretty nice move though
58:28um a little later if we're going to
58:31continue doing this. You know, we may
58:33see a pretty decent
58:39price leg maybe heading into lunch or PM
58:43session.
58:57Trump speak soon,
59:01man.
59:04Crazy time to be trading.
59:10I don't know how long you guys been
59:11trading for, but I remember when
59:1750 ticks, a 100 a 200 tick trade
59:24was a banger.
59:31A 200 tick trade used to be like wow
59:37and a 100 point trade was like oh my
59:40goodness
59:41because the daily candles used to be
59:43like 200 points.
59:49the
59:51the ATR with a value of 20 for daily
59:54candles recently is 600 points.
1:00:02That's nuts. And it's just going it's
1:00:05slowly just going up.
1:00:10But as a day trader or somebody who
1:00:13trades intraday,
1:00:16volatility is great for us. But
1:00:18sometimes there can be a little too much
1:00:20volatility where it makes it hard to get
1:00:23into an injury. But
1:00:25I'd rather there be a lot of volatility
1:00:27than no volatility. So, you know, we
1:00:30can't
1:00:35but there there is a fine balance where
1:00:37like it's preferred. I guess
1:00:40we're kind of leaning more towards the
1:00:42extreme recently,
1:00:46but it's all right. I'd rather I'd
1:00:47rather have that than have us do nothing
1:00:49and just like compress all day and like
1:00:52be stuck in a 50 point range.
1:01:03So, I want to wait for us to get out of
1:01:05this area. Honestly, this is um
1:01:10this looks like something that would
1:01:11blow some accounts. So, I think I think
1:01:14it might be good to uh avoid it.
1:01:17for the time being unless we see
1:01:19something. But it's all kind of noise
1:01:22right now.
1:01:27My goal here today is to uh
1:01:30not blow
1:01:33five evals
1:01:37in a single day.
1:01:40I mean, I won't be able to blow them in
1:01:41a single day anyways because they have a
1:01:42daily loss limit, but I would prefer not
1:01:45to uh hit daily loss limit today. Yeah,
1:01:48I'm copy trading five evals right now.
1:01:51I'm trying to I'm trying to take like
1:01:53this week
1:01:55and just like pass a bunch of evals and
1:01:57then we'll just focus on the funded
1:01:59accounts
1:02:02the rest of the month.
1:02:05But my uh before this week, my funded
1:02:08army has been
1:02:11pretty pathetic to be honest. I just
1:02:14have like one one funded here, two
1:02:16fundeds there. So, we got a couple
1:02:19fundeds now.
1:02:21And um
1:02:24I have this other eval that I traded
1:02:26yesterday,
1:02:28which it has a $2,000 balance on it. So,
1:02:31we'll probably pass that tomorrow
1:02:34and then we'll stop trading EVAs because
1:02:36it is kind of wasting my time at this
1:02:37point because I do have funded accounts
1:02:39now. But I do prefer I I would like to
1:02:42have like, you know, eight to 10
1:02:47fundeds
1:02:52so I can copy trade them in groups and
1:02:54then also maybe take one of them and
1:02:56just try and full port it on a good
1:02:58setup.
1:03:06Uh, how many fundeds do I like to have
1:03:08stacked before chasing payouts?
1:03:12Honestly, the only reason why I'm doing
1:03:13it right now is because I already took a
1:03:15payout this month.
1:03:18So, I took a payout the first week of
1:03:20June for like 20 uh I think after split
1:03:22it was like 2250.
1:03:25So, I've I think so far I've spent like
1:03:32um
1:03:33$500
1:03:38trying to build up the fundeds and we
1:03:40have a couple fundeds and then I'm
1:03:42working on these five Apexes today
1:03:45but I don't know next week I'll probably
1:03:50just only focus on funded accounts and
1:03:52then go for another payout. Oh.
1:04:10Uh, I haven't traded with TPT, but
1:04:15I find them interesting and I would
1:04:18definitely
1:04:19consider adding them. The only thing I
1:04:21don't like about TPT is what's causing
1:04:23my hesitation with TPT is the I just
1:04:26hate
1:04:28intraday or unrealized trailing.
1:04:36I mean, once you get over the buffer,
1:04:37it's fine, but that's just such a scammy
1:04:41rule. And the way that I trade is just
1:04:44like
1:04:46like let's take this trade for example.
1:04:48Okay, the one that I took down here,
1:04:54we we on a day like today, we ripped 100
1:04:59points in a matter of seconds and slam
1:05:01back down. I got out for 200, but the
1:05:05floating profit, I think at one point
1:05:07was like 600 bucks or something.
1:05:10So,
1:05:12I would have had a winning trade, but
1:05:16because we're whiplashing and there's
1:05:17high volatility and it came back to my
1:05:19stop,
1:05:21even though I'm in profit, I actually
1:05:23got out for almost a hundred ticks on
1:05:25that.
1:05:26I would have lost like $500 of draw
1:05:29down, $4 to $500 of draw down.
1:05:33I just can't get myself to like
1:05:36be like, "That's okay." You know what I
1:05:38mean?
1:05:39That's crazy to me. So, I I just can't
1:05:42let trades breathe. I got to just, you
1:05:44know, trail the out of them.
1:05:48And if I do that enough, I feel like
1:05:50it'll just start I don't I don't really
1:05:52think that's a good habit. Uh but I know
1:05:55that there's people who can just it
1:05:57doesn't they don't mind it. They can
1:05:59handle unrealized trailing and then once
1:06:01they build the buffer, get past the
1:06:02buffer and it stops trailing.
1:06:05um they kind of like trade however they
1:06:08trade and then they're just fine. Like
1:06:10some people just have no issues with it.
1:06:14But for me personally, I it would
1:06:16probably be an issue.
1:06:28Nice trade. Choosy
1:06:32trading pit. I've never heard of that
1:06:34before.
1:06:49So, we took the highs. Um, at this
1:06:52point, you know, we have gotten out of
1:06:55this area. Um, I'm seeing if we're going
1:06:59to continue this push up or
1:07:05if we're going to start slamming down
1:07:09back towards this area.
1:07:18The old Thrax would have been in six
1:07:20minis, 70 ticks.
1:07:23Yeah.
1:07:33Now we're over here on these EVs trading
1:07:35four micros.
1:07:37What a change. Who is this guy?
1:08:01the the volume imbalance with no
1:08:03stop-loss setup. Yeah. during Asia
1:08:06session.
1:08:42pe one of the Apex accounts.
1:08:46A I want to do them all at the same
1:08:48time,
1:08:52but not six minis all at the same time.
1:09:12I did give old Thrax a chance. I gave
1:09:14old Thrax a chance in May and my pass
1:09:17rate became 30%.
1:09:20So, I'm trying to change that. This
1:09:22might start slamming down. I'm watching
1:09:24this right now. It's important how this
1:09:26five minutes going to close.
1:09:39Yeah, back when NQ was at 18K. Yeah.
1:09:47So, I'm waiting for this uh 5 minute and
1:09:4915 minute to close. I want to see if
1:09:52we're going to start slamming back down.
1:09:55Um, I might try and take it
1:10:05if it looks good enough. Just keep in
1:10:08mind I am I am on eval right now.
1:10:22just warning, you know, if you have an
1:10:24account you care about
1:10:27and you blindly copy trade me and I take
1:10:30an L on an Eval and you take an L on a
1:10:33funded account, not my fault.
1:10:36This is not financial advice.
1:10:41It's kind of a weak close though.
1:10:45Makes me less inclined to try and go
1:10:46short.
1:10:53We'll see. Actually,
1:11:15do I use CBD? Not really.
1:11:39I'm going to try it.
1:11:41I'm going to try it.
1:11:44We're going to go into uh
1:11:47how big of the stop how big would the
1:11:49stop need to be?
1:11:54I need us to push lower. And if we end
1:11:58up kind of like
1:12:01taking the lows sitting around here, I
1:12:03am going to move it to break even.
1:12:06I just need to see us start having a
1:12:08little bit of follow through
1:12:12because we could still I mean we're kind
1:12:14of like making this like grind up. I'm
1:12:17trying to see if it's just going to
1:12:18break down.
1:12:21Okay. So, like there I'm moving stop to
1:12:23break even. And we're just gonna
1:12:26let this baby ride.
1:12:31Watch it go 100 points in a
1:12:33profit again and then just like come all
1:12:36the way back.
1:12:39It's all right.
1:12:44Look, watch this. Push up.
1:12:47If you're a real savage, we're going to
1:12:49add into it on the flip and trail stop.
1:12:54All right, we added into it. We're
1:12:56chilling stop.
1:12:58It needs to just break.
1:13:00This is also kind of aggressive. Oh. Oh
1:13:04It added me into another trade.
1:13:08Wait a second.
1:13:12All right.
1:13:15I kind of
1:13:22How far did that go?
1:13:29>> 75 points.
1:13:39>> All right, it's fine because it was
1:13:40going to come back anyways.
1:13:46Oh, where did this go?
1:13:55So,
1:13:57not the be. Not the best. Uh,
1:14:02what' you do, Choosy?
1:14:06Oh, very nice.
1:14:09So, we had one trade that went 100
1:14:12points in profit, came back to our break
1:14:15even. Another trade went 75 points in
1:14:18profit.
1:14:20Realistically, it's coming back to our
1:14:21break even.
1:14:28That looks real bad for sellers.
1:15:30All right.
1:15:32Oh, damn. See pumped.
1:15:35All right. Well, we we we were on the
1:15:37wrong side of that for sure.
1:15:40For sure.
1:15:57So, we're coming up here approaching
1:15:59where Tanuki has their HBO.
1:16:17I still think at some point we're
1:16:19probably going to break down, but I just
1:16:21um I don't want to try and time it
1:16:24anymore.
1:17:13Trump speaking.
1:17:18He didn't step out yet.
1:17:22Is he about to say something
1:17:24about Iran? We're just going to just
1:17:27dump.
1:17:47Yeah. when he just says stuff.
1:18:53So, kind of a nastier uh grind up here.
1:18:57Or is this where we're going to start
1:18:59breaking down?
1:19:02Nah, not going to fall for it yet.
1:19:25Not going to not going to fall for it
1:19:29until we're uh until we're below 29,100.
1:20:31Kind
1:20:52of an uneventful day here
1:20:55for your boy
1:21:14Oh, Aventto, my bad. I didn't see your
1:21:16message. What do you change when you
1:21:18trade funded accounts?
1:21:20Well, I'm not
1:21:23I'll actually
1:21:25wait for
1:21:27like when I trade an Eval, I'm willing
1:21:29to take I'm willing to take more
1:21:31aggressive entries, use heavier size,
1:21:36and
1:21:38hold for bigger T. I'm just more
1:21:40aggressive. I'm just way more aggressive
1:21:42on evals.
1:21:44Um, also in the past, like when I'm up
1:21:46pretty significantly in terms of money
1:21:49in, money out, I'll literally just full
1:21:51port them just to get them out the way.
1:21:57Blow them or pass them, doesn't matter.
1:21:59Um, like if I'm up like, you know, let's
1:22:02just say I pulled like 10 grand in
1:22:04payouts and I've spent like $1,000 in
1:22:07evals, I'll I'll literally just buy
1:22:09evals and fullport them.
1:22:14But, um, I don't I I kind of care a lot
1:22:18about risk management and funded
1:22:20accounts because I'm trying to keep
1:22:21them, you know. Although there are times
1:22:24where if I have multiple funded
1:22:26accounts, I will get really aggressive
1:22:28on a single one to just see if I can
1:22:31build a buffer pretty quickly because
1:22:34the goal is to build the buffer, kind of
1:22:35put them in a basket, and then just
1:22:37extract the payouts from them.
1:22:46You've had 13 funded accounts like in
1:22:48the entire time that you were trading or
1:22:50at one time
1:22:57all time 13 funded.
1:23:00Well,
1:23:05I have had a lot of fundeds and I've
1:23:08blown a lot of fundeds. Got a lot of
1:23:11evals. I've blown a lot of evals.
1:23:28So, it's interesting on [music] the
1:23:29profile right now is on Tanuki because
1:23:33there's multiple zero gamma levels on um
1:23:36or like these multiple gamma flip levels
1:23:38on this map. this morning. It's a little
1:23:40bit more.
1:23:42It's not as clean. It's more complex.
1:23:44The pull wall is actually sitting above
1:23:46a call wall,
1:23:50which is interesting, but it'll probably
1:23:52snap back and forth between 950 and 800.
1:23:56I'm trying to see if we're going to
1:23:57start
1:24:00breaking down.
1:24:15pass or get licked.
1:24:18I want to see if we can start pushing
1:24:19through this area where we keep seeing
1:24:23sellers kind of get absorbed.
1:24:27And then I will consider
1:24:30taking another attempt
1:24:32for us to start breaking down
1:24:36all the way back over here like that. I
1:24:39want to see it hold though. Like I need
1:24:41us to kind of push,
1:24:43hold a little bit,
1:24:48not just come, you know, keep this
1:24:50little, you know, grind up going.
1:25:08All right, I'm gonna I'm gonna do it.
1:25:11We're going to give it another attempt.
1:25:14We're going to hope it doesn't slam all
1:25:15the way back up.
1:25:26Slightly anticipating though, by the
1:25:28way. Slightly premature anticipating.
1:25:31I need us to just follow through. So,
1:25:33we're moving stop to break even.
1:25:36We need this five minute to open up and
1:25:38just start ripping lower.
1:25:42Wait, where is this 120? Okay, it's
1:25:45fine.
1:25:48I put it right here.
1:25:55All right. So, let's see if this is
1:25:56finally the trade that actually has some
1:25:58follow through or if we're just going to
1:26:00continuously
1:26:02hit these um
1:26:05100 point 100 point moves and then just
1:26:07like have it snap back. I think this
1:26:10might be the breakdown lower though.
1:26:19Please be at least
1:26:25How far in profit is that so far? We got
1:26:28in at uh
1:26:32131
1:26:35like 60 points or we basically went 100
1:26:39points almost.
1:27:00Because if we can get a little bit of
1:27:02profit on these accounts, like we drop a
1:27:06little bit, we get some profits and it
1:27:10puts me up like maybe a thousand bucks
1:27:12on each of the accounts and we don't
1:27:14just slam back up and hit my break even,
1:27:18then I'm actually going to size uh
1:27:21pretty heavy and just try and pass these
1:27:23accounts today if I build a buffer. But
1:27:25if it's going to keep doing this, we're
1:27:27just going to be like
1:27:30I don't know. I want to Dude, I'm trying
1:27:33to give it room to run.
1:27:36You know what I mean? But it just
1:27:37doesn't want to run.
1:27:53I'm going to add into it.
1:28:00Come on. Just drop. Drop. Drop. Drop.
1:28:02Drop. Drop.
1:28:16It's not looking too good though. We
1:28:18push down with sellers. They immediately
1:28:20just, you know, we see buyers stepping
1:28:22in and then,
1:28:26>> bro, why does it do that to me? I need
1:28:28to figure out the whole thing with the
1:28:32I gotta figure out the whole uh
1:28:36Oh my goodness. Did I do it again? Dude,
1:28:38I I probably did it again.
1:28:48Such
1:28:57The break even demon. Yes.
1:29:08I'm an idiot for that. Honestly, I was
1:29:10trying to add into it.
1:29:14Trying to get greedy. I'm now the new
1:29:16break even king.
1:29:19Break even on break even. That was
1:29:22looking to be a pretty good ad though. I
1:29:24will tell you that. We got like right up
1:29:25towards my stop.
1:29:28We flip. I added on the flip bearish
1:29:33and then I kind of just uh
1:29:37poor trade. Poor trade management today.
1:29:40Honestly,
1:29:44we did it on this one. We did it on
1:29:48did it on this one. We did it on this
1:29:51one.
1:30:01Yeah.
1:30:03Don't put a stop loss, huh? Because then
1:30:05you're just anticipating you're going to
1:30:06lose.
1:30:12Oh, that would have been the perfect ad,
1:30:14too. It's like the perfect ad.
1:30:18We would have probably been uh
1:30:29I will say though to my credit though we
1:30:32have been taking some decent ideas.
1:30:34I mean the two best ideas were the ones
1:30:37to go long here got a pretty good entry
1:30:39and then go short up here for the
1:30:41breakdown.
1:30:48you know, just sloppier. I'm trying to
1:30:51like
1:30:53start with small size, right? And then
1:30:55kind of like add into the winners. Um,
1:30:58but adding in winners, you got to be
1:30:59really careful how you do it
1:31:03because you can um you can just up
1:31:05your trade.
1:31:08But when it works out, it's great. And
1:31:11you know I usually do that with evals.
1:31:19But
1:31:22I have to be careful and I'm that's why
1:31:24I'm starting with like smaller size cuz
1:31:27you know these accounts I'm trading five
1:31:29of them. These accounts have a $1,000
1:31:32daily loss limit. And
1:31:37what I should be doing is because this
1:31:38delivery really isn't that clean, I I
1:31:41shouldn't really be adding into them
1:31:42like that. But
1:31:45these evals, these evals ain't going
1:31:47past themselves. I'll take I'm I'm okay
1:31:49with taking break evens though. Break
1:31:51evens for other people. Like I know I'm
1:31:53messing around and like I'm like
1:31:56I'm like ah you know but at the end of
1:31:58the day I really don't care about a
1:31:59break even because
1:32:02I put it a little bit in profit so it
1:32:04just like slowly adds like you know
1:32:06we're up 300 bucks even though I've hit
1:32:08like three break evens at this point
1:32:11using four micros. So
1:32:15I mean that's nothing to brag about but
1:32:19you get my point. But if you're if
1:32:22you're the type of because the some
1:32:23traders
1:32:25will have break evens
1:32:28trigger tilt for them.
1:32:33All I haven't been reading these. My
1:32:34bad. Um
1:32:37why do I use a deep charts?
1:32:42Why not?
1:32:44I like execution on deep charts.
1:32:48Although I'm not the biggest fan of
1:32:49their order flow analysis. I I don't
1:32:50think it's um I think this is kind of
1:32:52like beginner friendly
1:32:55style platform
1:32:58which is great. I mean that's great but
1:33:00it's not as customizable
1:33:03as I can get an ATS in my opinion. And
1:33:07also the replay mode in deep charts is
1:33:09kind of ass. It's like a trading view
1:33:12replay.
1:33:13The one is the one on AS is way better.
1:33:16So I use ATS for like I do execute on
1:33:20ATS as well but when it comes to like um
1:33:22alpha futures
1:33:25or even some other prop firms because
1:33:28I'll give you an example. Lucid Trading
1:33:31ban like blocked me for a bit because
1:33:34they thought that I was using an
1:33:35algorithm and I was trying to explain to
1:33:38them I'm not using an algorithm. And
1:33:41they said it was because I was pinging
1:33:43their rhythmic servers like a thousand
1:33:46requests like every second.
1:33:49And I realized when they told me that
1:33:51that's because I have a really uh heavy
1:33:54workload for a test. Like you guys just
1:33:56see one of the charts. I have another
1:33:58one. Another one. Another one. another
1:34:00one that all are loading different
1:34:02orderflow data. So, it's a lot of data,
1:34:05right? And it was probably and when I
1:34:07connected Lucid to um ATAS, it was
1:34:11probably just like pinging the out
1:34:13of their server and so they blocked me
1:34:15and then they told me I can't trade on
1:34:17ATAS with their uh because I don't want
1:34:19to use Tradec. So, I'm like, okay, well,
1:34:22the next best the next best thing is
1:34:25just for me to just execute on it on
1:34:27deep charts. And I really It's really
1:34:29good for adding in two positions. Makes
1:34:31it really easy.
1:34:33Instead of like having to right click
1:34:35and, you know, do all that, you just
1:34:37click and and drop it, which makes it
1:34:40pretty chill.
1:34:48Where did we get in on this trade?
1:34:50Somewhere right here.
1:34:55Disappointing.
1:34:59Yeah, Chris, I'll take I could take
1:35:02break evens all day,
1:35:11but I definitely I mean I add into
1:35:12winners and I got to be careful
1:35:14sometimes how I'm actually adding into
1:35:16the winners. But when it when you catch
1:35:18some momentum and you add into a winner,
1:35:21you know, your uh
1:35:24your winner is going to be way larger
1:35:26than your losers,
1:35:31but it does result in a decent amount of
1:35:33break evens.
1:35:38>> Heat maps. Yeah, I use this heat map.
1:35:45I see where it is. I see the DOM levels.
1:35:51Yeah, it's a little bit of a not the
1:35:54best delivery right now in my opinion
1:35:56for the way that I trade at least. So,
1:36:00we're also approaching my
1:36:03my cut off time.
1:36:15Not the best session, but also not the
1:36:18worst session.
1:36:22The ideas were solid.
1:36:26Two main ideas for the day.
1:36:29Hourly open, push down, sellers fail,
1:36:31push up, go take Asia highs. Once we're
1:36:34up here, we're looking for a break down
1:36:36back into this area, which unfortunately
1:36:40we're doing without me because I tried
1:36:43to add into a winner.
1:36:50So, I mean, it is what it is. But that
1:36:54that right there
1:37:01[sighs]
1:37:11But after I mean this is kind of what I
1:37:13was I was looking for this
1:37:17and then I was looking for this.
1:37:20So like
1:37:27it dug a little deeper. Okay. But I was
1:37:30looking for the push down, right? Push
1:37:33up. Come up here. Dug a little deeper.
1:37:36It was kind of like around here, but
1:37:38then fall down. And then that's it. That
1:37:39was all I was looking for today. So now
1:37:41that's kind of done. It's just like uh
1:37:51I think we just come back tomorrow.
1:37:53Tomorrow, by the way, um I think I'm
1:37:56streaming with prop for a match. Wait,
1:37:59what day is it today? Oh, it's
1:38:02Wednesday.
1:38:05I thought it was I thought it was
1:38:06Thursday.
1:38:11Damn, dude.
1:38:19watching this just go without us
1:38:25would have passed our accounts. All five
1:38:28of them.
1:38:31Moment of silence.
1:38:33We need a moment of silence
1:38:36for what could have been.
1:38:38What should have been, but what never
1:38:41was.
1:38:48Wait, I was in eight micros. What is
1:38:50that? Four.
1:38:53Yeah. Would have been over with. 3,000
1:38:563,000
1:38:57would have passed all. We would have
1:38:59been up like what is that? 35 would have
1:39:02been up like 15 G's [music] on eval fake
1:39:04money.
1:39:20Now we got to sit here
1:39:23and and soak in our mistakes of
1:39:29what could have been, what should have
1:39:30been, what would have been. Ah, yeah.
1:39:38No, it's all right, though.
1:39:42There's always tomorrow.
1:39:44And I'm actually just more so happy
1:39:47about uh the apex. Yeah, I got in I got
1:39:51into shorts right here. Got in shorts
1:39:54right here.
1:39:56And then we came back up towards my
1:39:58break even and I added right here into
1:40:00eight micros and then I just trailed
1:40:03stopped too tight.
1:40:10kind of the same thing that I did right
1:40:12here where I go long right here. We add
1:40:15in up here, hit our stop before it went
1:40:18to Asia highs. So
1:40:21yeah, I kind of just like managed the
1:40:23trade poorly on this trade, the one that
1:40:25we were looking for this long. I managed
1:40:27the trade poorly when we were looking
1:40:28for the shorts.
1:40:30So now we're only up 300 times five.
1:40:57Yeah, I usually recently I've been
1:41:00sizing smaller and having bigger stops
1:41:02because I mean like
1:41:04the ATR is uh
1:41:07been incred I mean dude the five minute
1:41:09ATR right now on Trading View is
1:41:11113 points.
1:41:14That's crazy, you know. So, when you
1:41:16have really large volatility like that,
1:41:19you know, you can whiplash around
1:41:22a 100 points at a time in a single
1:41:25fiveminute candle before actually
1:41:26continuing in the direction. And so, I
1:41:29should have just kept proper like gave
1:41:32it enough room to breathe, but
1:41:37we're trying to we're trying to get
1:41:39sneaky with it. Trying to get a little
1:41:41fancy.
1:41:43It ended up resulting in
1:41:45what happened. But it's all right. It's
1:41:48better than taking an L. And at least
1:41:50the analysis was right, which is what
1:41:52what I care more about
1:41:56because execution can always be refined.
1:41:59And sometimes I mess up, but
1:42:13yeah, that's that's good. You waited for
1:42:14the shorts.
1:42:26And this thing snap back pretty hard.
1:43:02All right, I'll probably I'm probably
1:43:04going to just call it a day. So, quick
1:43:05recap. We got in long right here.
1:43:09It went 100 points into profit. I tried
1:43:11to add into it and then it hit my break
1:43:13even. We went short right here. Went 75
1:43:17points into profit. Hit my break even.
1:43:20We went short right here.
1:43:23How far did I go in profit till it hit
1:43:25my break even?
1:43:27I don't know. Probably only like Oh, no.
1:43:29It did go down because this was the
1:43:31candle that took me out. So,
1:43:33I don't know. Probably like 90 points.
1:43:35Went like 90 points in profit. Came
1:43:37back, hit me out. But this was kind of
1:43:40what I was looking for
1:43:42and then it happened. So, I'm not going
1:43:44to sit here and try and form a new plan
1:43:46about what I think blah blah blah blah.
1:43:48We're also by usually at the time for my
1:43:51um
1:43:52cut off
1:43:54So, I'm going to call it a day and I'll
1:43:58be back tomorrow. I might actually chill
1:44:00in the uh I'm probably going to chill in
1:44:02the voice chat for a little bit and
1:44:04maybe sit there and potentially take a
1:44:06trade, but I'm probably going to get off
1:44:08stream. So,
1:44:12if you want to join the voice chat, I'm
1:44:14going to go hang out in there right now.
1:44:16So, I'll see you guys later.
