1. 0:28All right.
2. 0:29So today
3. 0:34we may see 30,000 on NQ
4. 1:15Hold on. I got to set this up real quick
5. 1:17my screen
6. 1:24and then I'll talk about what I'm
7. 1:26looking at in a second. Just give me a
8. 1:28sec.
9. 1:59All right. So today
10. 2:06I'm kind of imagining that we actually
11. 2:08head up here this morning to go test um
12. 2:1230,000 on NQ. So, in the event that we
13. 2:20come down and we see uh sustained
14. 2:22selling pressure kind of pass this area,
15. 2:24then we may actually be coming down here
16. 2:26to test or even potentially fill the new
17. 2:29week opening gap. Um, I would be
18. 2:32surprised if we fully fill it,
19. 2:35but it's possible.
20. 2:38But there is a pretty good chance that
21. 2:40we actually just
22. 2:42continue this push up into price
23. 2:45discovery past 30,000. And there is a
24. 2:48level above 30,000, right at 30,65
25. 2:54that I'm going to potentially be
26. 2:56watching for. So,
27. 3:02We'll see what happens here at the open.
28. 3:06We'll see if we can catch an
29. 3:08opportunity. I'm more leaning towards
30. 3:10longs though.
31. 3:14>> Leaning towards longs, but understanding
32. 3:17that we are struggling to get past this
33. 3:20uh 30,000
34. 3:23mark on
35. 3:26NQ.
36. 3:39So, I have a Lucid
37. 3:42I have a Lucid account that's currently
38. 3:46I have a funded Lucid account and then I
39. 3:48also have this uh Eval, but I have
40. 3:52accounts on Alpha Trader, but it's
41. 3:54currently down for like maintenance
42. 3:57right now. So, can't trade those. I have
43. 4:00a funded account on there, but I can't
44. 4:01really trade. And some evals that are
45. 4:03like halfway done.
46. 4:55All right.
47. 5:07I may have to if we push up. I'm going
48. 5:08to have to adjust this fib.
49. 5:36So, we'll see what happens. I'll
50. 5:37probably start off by trying to trade
51. 5:39the funded account. I'm going to use
52. 5:40some pretty small size though,
53. 5:45by just like four micros, four to five
54. 5:48micros
55. 5:50depending on how volatile we get at the
56. 5:52open.
57. 6:01>> [snorts]
58. 6:17>> Alazar. Today we are currently um here
59. 6:22let me show you
60. 6:27for zero DT we're currently sitting
61. 6:29above the call wall. So this is a pretty
62. 6:32key area as well. It's kind of like a
63. 6:34strong stack level. I'm watching 28960.
64. 6:37I would like us to stay above it. Um in
65. 6:40the I'm also looking at the one DTE call
66. 6:42wall though. So, usually I pay attention
67. 6:45to only zero DTE, but because of the
68. 6:49profile that we have today and we're
69. 6:51opening above the call wall, I am
70. 6:52watching this 30,65 level from the 1DTE.
71. 6:57It's a very large uh gamma node,
72. 6:59positive gamma node with a lot of volume
73. 7:01sitting here. It also has the net call
74. 7:03open interest and call open interest.
75. 7:04So, it could potentially be the draw for
76. 7:06today. If we do go to the upside, I will
77. 7:08be watching for us to potentially break
78. 7:11past 30,000 and come up to 30,65.
79. 7:15But for now, if we begin to drop down
80. 7:19like we're curling over a little bit, I
81. 7:21am paying attention to this area. In the
82. 7:24event that we begin to push lower, um
83. 7:27there is the possibility that we
84. 7:30actually rotate back towards the HBL. So
85. 7:35I am
86. 7:37watching what happens here.
87. 7:41Um
88. 7:44pullback opportunities will potentially
89. 7:47be for longs unless we start really
90. 7:52pushing further below this area. Then at
91. 7:54that point the eyes are then adjusting
92. 7:57or we're watching for potentially the
93. 8:00new weak opening gap.
94. 8:03But I would be pretty surprised if we
95. 8:04actually ended up filling the entire
96. 8:06gap. We may just tap into it to the 25%
97. 8:09or 50% of it if that were to happen.
98. 8:13Um, but I would prefer honestly to go
99. 8:15long and hold a long position for 30,000
100. 8:19because
101. 8:21on the higher time frames, we are
102. 8:23definitely bullish, right?
103. 8:26So, a better a better trade for me to
104. 8:29take this morning would be to wait for a
105. 8:31pullback, go long, and hold it to 30K.
106. 8:35It's basically what I'm looking at this
107. 8:37morning.
108. 8:39So, we got 30 seconds till market open.
109. 8:41We're dropping down a little bit. We're
110. 8:42going to see what the opening
111. 8:46does for us here.
112. 8:56I also adjusted the driver for a task to
113. 9:01be connected to the high performance
114. 9:02driver. So hopefully it doesn't freeze
115. 9:04up on me like it was the other days.
116. 9:06Maybe that fixed it, but
117. 9:09we shall see.
118. 9:29Oh, it's definitely freezing on me.
119. 9:37In the event that we just push up right
120. 9:39here and we just run straight to 30K
121. 9:42all-time high and then push into 3065,
122. 9:46uh I may not take a trade.
123. 9:51But if if we dip down, if we take these
124. 9:54lows
125. 9:56sitting here coming into discount of the
126. 9:58current range, which I have to adjust
127. 10:00right now because we just put in another
128. 10:01high, I'll be watching this area.
129. 10:26But I'm going to be a little bit more
130. 10:27careful today. Um,
131. 10:30and I'll probably be pretty hands off
132. 10:32once we get past 30K.
133. 10:35It's kind of my main target. It's a
134. 10:38major psychological level.
135. 10:40>> 30,000 for NQ. Crazy.
136. 10:47Yeah, of course. Alazar,
137. 10:50glad it helps.
138. 10:57I am going to see it also once we kind
139. 10:59of push back towards uh the call wall
140. 11:01right now.
141. 11:04for zero DT expirations. I'm going to
142. 11:07see what we do.
143. 11:10>> Yeah, last year it was like 17K after
144. 11:13the drop from the tariffs.
145. 11:18>> When I first started trading
146. 11:20NQ,
147. 11:22it was like 11,000 or something.
148. 11:27Sellers are struggling a little bit to
149. 11:29push lower, but I'm going to wait.
150. 11:46How large is this right now?
151. 11:49Not too big. 50 points.
152. 11:59You know, I need to add the ATR.
153. 12:03Whoops. Not that.
154. 12:16>> Yeah, you never know. You know, we can
155. 12:17go to 50K in a couple years for sure.
156. 12:21Just keep going up.
157. 12:39So, we're pushing back into this area at
158. 12:4129860, which I'm currently watching for
159. 12:44right now. I'm trying to see if we're
160. 12:46going to really start pushing below it,
161. 12:49and then I'll be watching down here. But
162. 12:52if we start rejecting off of it and we
163. 12:55start pushing higher, there may be an
164. 12:57opportunity to just chase the momentum.
165. 13:00Not necessarily chase it, but follow the
166. 13:01momentum
167. 13:03higher. Although
168. 13:08we do need to potentially be prepared
169. 13:10for the scenario where we don't actually
170. 13:12come up to 30,000 which is you know once
171. 13:15we get down here if we start accepting
172. 13:16lower at that point any type of long
173. 13:19position for me for the morning is
174. 13:20probably off the table
175. 13:24but I am leaning towards looking for
176. 13:26potential longs which we may just like
177. 13:28have this sell off
178. 13:31you know it could be 200 points 250
179. 13:34points points. But
180. 13:38whenever we're up here and higher time
181. 13:39frame is bullish, I'm kind of less
182. 13:42likely to try and short it.
183. 13:48I would rather wait for a pullback to
184. 13:50try and go long
185. 13:54and if it doesn't happen, then it
186. 13:56doesn't happen. You know what I mean?
187. 14:01>> [snorts]
188. 14:12[snorts]
189. 14:22>> So, as we continue to push down, I'm
190. 14:24watching to see us basically
191. 14:28take these lows coming into
192. 14:32between 29800 and 29760.
193. 14:36And then if there's any type of
194. 14:37responsive buying activity,
195. 14:40I may try and go long.
196. 14:43But if there is none, then we'll just
197. 14:45let it drop and I may not take a trade
198. 14:48today
199. 14:51because I won't really want to take any
200. 14:53type of shorts unless we start getting
201. 14:55down here and it'll probably just be a
202. 14:56scalp if we have a lot of momentum.
203. 15:44Thanks, Cosmic. Yeah, I do use heat map.
204. 15:47I have a heat map up on the other side
205. 15:49of the screen, but there's also one
206. 15:51sitting right here.
207. 16:11Dude, I hope they fix Alpha Trader
208. 16:14pretty soon so that I can trade my Funed
209. 16:17account on there. And the other Eval I
210. 16:19need to finish.
211. 16:21There's two like two or three Evals on
212. 16:23there I need to finish. Like halfway
213. 16:25done.
214. 17:05In the event that we don't actually get
215. 17:07down here, we don't take this out
216. 17:11um and we don't come into the dis into
217. 17:14discount of this current range, then
218. 17:18we start popping back up. I may wait for
219. 17:20us to get all the way back up here and
220. 17:22then really confirm that we're pushing
221. 17:24towards 30K. Wait for a potential
222. 17:26pullback and then just try and capture
223. 17:28like 50 points.
224. 17:35But I got to wait. I got to wait in this
225. 17:37area. Even though we see sellers kind of
226. 17:40getting absorbed right here, they were
227. 17:42struggling to push lower.
228. 17:44I just it's not good location for me to
229. 17:47try it.
230. 17:49For me at least.
231. 18:19I'm also making sure that on that we
232. 18:23don't get just like pinned around here.
233. 18:25Meaning that we just start like chopping
234. 18:27around this area for a little bit.
235. 18:30You know, for the past month or month
236. 18:32and a half or even two months, I'm just
237. 18:35extra cautious or suspicious
238. 18:39about
239. 18:42NQ New York open kind of chopping
240. 18:54especially when we're like near all-time
241. 18:56highs because
242. 18:58last time we were making our run in
243. 19:00price discovery before we actually
244. 19:01dipped down and then ran back up again.
245. 19:04Um near all-time high, what would happen
246. 19:06a lot of the times is like we would chop
247. 19:08close to the open and then we would just
248. 19:10like make this like slower grind up or
249. 19:13break out towards the upside a little
250. 19:15bit later after
251. 19:17you know, maybe the new 4 hour open. So,
252. 19:20I just got to make sure
253. 19:24I don't get caught in that. This may be
254. 19:26coming up, but I'm going to wait. I'm
255. 19:28not going [clears throat] to try and
256. 19:29take any longs down here yet.
257. 19:32I would like us to get back up here.
258. 19:35Sellers try and step in again and fail
259. 19:37and then we we curl back up to the
260. 19:40upside and go long.
261. 19:48So something like this, right? Come
262. 19:50down. Sellers getting absorbed. Buyers
263. 19:53begin to push back up. Sellers try and
264. 19:55step in again. They fail. And then at
265. 19:58this point, I would be looking for us to
266. 20:01just try and capture like
267. 20:04anywhere from 50 to 100 points. 50 to
268. 20:07100 points for the day is good enough
269. 20:08for me, honestly.
270. 20:12Whoops.
271. 20:26It's something you love.
272. 21:01That wick on the 15 minute is nasty.
273. 21:06Looks like we're probably going to hit
274. 21:0830,000 today if this continues.
275. 21:11So, let's see if we can ride the train.
276. 21:14Just got to wait for the opportunity.
277. 21:25>> Dude, this shit's frozen. It's like
278. 21:28every time during New York open, it
279. 21:29freezes.
280. 21:33It's got to be my computer or something.
281. 21:36If that's not happened to other people,
282. 22:00it.
283. 22:15You are
284. 22:22There is a chance though that
285. 22:25depending on how this five minute
286. 22:26closes, I'll I might
287. 22:30look for us to have the next fivem
288. 22:33minute retrace and when it flips
289. 22:34bullish, I might just follow it.
290. 22:41So now that we're up here, I'm looking
291. 22:43to basically see this candle close.
292. 22:47I want to see sellers try and make an
293. 22:50attempt to push it back down and fail.
294. 22:53And then we're going to go long
295. 23:44What up, T-Rex?
296. 23:57So, this is a pretty strong close for
297. 23:59this five minute. So,
298. 24:02we'll see how the the next five minute
299. 24:06forms.
300. 24:09I prefer us to immediately start pushing
301. 24:11back if I'm going to go long on this
302. 24:13candle.
303. 24:15Otherwise, I just have to wait.
304. 24:22But this might this might honestly just
305. 24:24go straight to 30k
306. 24:28without offering an entry for me. But
307. 24:30that's all right.
308. 25:07Yeah, we're probably just going straight
309. 25:09there.
310. 25:11unfortunate, but
311. 25:15you know, like I can't I can't just like
312. 25:18get FOMO and try and chase it. Even
313. 25:21though the idea was pullbacks, should
314. 25:24have been looking for longs targeting
315. 25:2730K.
316. 25:30Just
317. 25:32didn't make didn't have the uh
318. 25:37opportunity for an entry that I was
319. 25:39looking for.
320. 25:40So, if we come up and we break 30K,
321. 25:42okay, at that point, I'm watching for us
322. 25:46to potentially just continue up to
323. 25:4830,65,
324. 25:56but there is the potential opportunity
325. 25:58where
326. 26:02we may not get may not get an entry and
327. 26:05then we'll just call it a no trade
328. 26:07session.
329. 26:12Let me try and move this for you guys.
330. 26:22Dude, it's frozen.
331. 26:37Here,
332. 26:42I'm gonna just close this for a second
333. 26:57and then I'll just have to open it back
334. 26:59up.
335. 27:04Dude, what a pain in the butt.
336. 27:22Yeah, if we do get a if we do get like a
337. 27:24pullback or a retest of this area,
338. 27:28that would be probably the only
339. 27:29opportunity for me to try and take a
340. 27:31long if an entry
341. 27:34presents itself. off.
342. 27:49Otherwise, we may just continue shooting
343. 27:51up.
344. 28:07We have all these orders sitting here
345. 28:14>> at 30,000.
346. 28:41I just didn't really want to go short
347. 28:43right here or I didn't want to go long
348. 28:45right here before we I just felt like it
349. 28:48was too high. I thought we were going to
350. 28:49pull back just a little bit more.
351. 29:27So hopefully we pull back before we take
352. 29:30it. But
353. 29:32I mean, we were struggling up here
354. 29:34during the overnight and yesterday or
355. 29:37during yesterday. So we may just kind of
356. 29:40shoot through it. I hope we pull back
357. 29:41though.
358. 29:43>> And then curl back up.
359. 29:51I would be pretty surprised though if we
360. 29:54came all the way up here and then
361. 29:55dropped like all the way back down.
362. 30:20So, if we do pull back, there is an area
363. 30:22within this candle that I can't show you
364. 30:24right now, but there's a low volume node
365. 30:26sitting right here with a stack or a
366. 30:27cluster of imbalances that I might watch
367. 30:30for a reaction off of
368. 30:34right around this area.
369. 30:36or I'm watching two areas. This PC, but
370. 30:39also this area.
371. 30:42If it never actually gets down there and
372. 30:44it just rips up, then it is what it is.
373. 32:31See if we could get pull back deeper.
374. 33:21All right, I'm actually going to um
375. 33:25I went in two micros. though I'm going
376. 33:28to have a massive stop
377. 33:31and I'm going to actually add if we
378. 33:33begin to start pushing back up into 30k
379. 33:38[snorts]
380. 33:42but I have to go a small size because if
381. 33:44we actually go a little lower I'm going
382. 33:46to add into it but
383. 33:50this is probably like
384. 33:54my target for the day is basically 30K.
385. 33:56So, the moment that we actually get up
386. 33:58to 30K,
387. 34:01I kind of don't really want to trade
388. 34:03anymore and I want to just wait. So, if
389. 34:06I could just like go to micros,
390. 34:09I'm willing to add into it and then move
391. 34:12my stop
392. 34:14and potentially even take a negative
393. 34:16risk-reward trade.
394. 34:31We were just pretty aggressive here
395. 34:32trying to push and then we started to
396. 34:34fail. So, we'll see if it wants to go
397. 34:36lower. In the event that we do go lower
398. 34:38on this 5m minute
399. 34:40like down into this area, I might
400. 34:42actually add into it, but
401. 34:46I'll only go in like four micros. I have
402. 34:49a huge stop right now. That's like 300
403. 34:52ticks.
404. 35:50But um I may try and hold it for
405. 35:55depending on what happens after we take
406. 35:5730k. After we take 30k, I may actually
407. 36:01just leave this at two micros and I may
408. 36:04just move to break even and then try and
409. 36:06hold it for
410. 36:0830,65
411. 36:12if we're going to continue pushing up.
412. 36:15>> And it would be like
413. 36:18I don't know 100 points, 120 points if
414. 36:22we can actually get up there.
415. 36:24But we'll see what happens. um if we can
416. 36:27actually break past this area and take
417. 36:30the orders at 30,000.
418. 36:34But the moment that we do take 30,000, I
419. 36:36have to go break even.
420. 36:52All
421. 37:04right, let's see if we blast through
422. 37:05this these orders.
423. 37:38Man, we are struggling to break 30,000.
424. 38:24All
425. 38:49right, I'm going just drop my stop right
426. 38:50here and I'm just going to let it run.
427. 38:52I'm going to try and take it up to uh
428. 38:54either break even or like
429. 39:0064. Take it to 64. So it' be 474 ticks.
430. 39:04I'm only into micros.
431. 39:07I am going to start trailing stop. Um
432. 39:13once we start approaching kind of
433. 39:16actually where we're at right now, I'm
434. 39:18going wait for this um candle to
435. 39:21potentially put in a low and then if we
436. 39:24make another push up, I'm going to trail
437. 39:25it right behind it.
438. 39:30Unless we just take 30,000 right now and
439. 39:32we swept these highs and we're about to
440. 39:35start slamming back down, which would be
441. 39:36unfortunate, but
442. 39:39it is what it is.
443. 39:42So far, it went like even though it's
444. 39:45two micros, we went like 300 ticks and
445. 39:48profit for a second,
446. 39:51but we'll hold it. I want to see it stay
447. 39:53above this uh PC. Let me see if I can
448. 39:56move my chart a little bit.
449. 40:15So, if we get another push up or a
450. 40:16strong push up,
451. 40:19I'll um
452. 40:22trail trail stop right below this fivem
453. 40:24minute candle. I just want to see
454. 40:25another like push
455. 40:28and then we'll try and lock in like a
456. 40:32at least a winning day for the account.
457. 40:35This is the funded account so
458. 40:49we need to see it continue. I don't want
459. 40:51to see it snap back.
460. 41:02because it's also the new hourly candle
461. 41:04right now on the 4 hour.
462. 41:06So we go look right
463. 41:10new hourly
464. 41:12as well as the new 4 hour.
465. 41:15So when we trail it to the bottom of
466. 41:17this candle, we'd actually be trailing
467. 41:18it to the bottom of the 1 hour and the 4
468. 41:20hour.
469. 41:23I just need it to get away from here
470. 41:24first. It needs to like push above and
471. 41:26potentially take the orders that are
472. 41:27sitting in this area
473. 41:31or it might just come back, you know,
474. 41:35200 ticks. But it's all right.
475. 41:39I would rather hold it than just try and
476. 41:41get out right here.
477. 42:04It's not looking too good though, I'll
478. 42:06tell you that.
479. 42:22gave up on tops up. No, I'm just I got
480. 42:24some Lucid accounts.
481. 42:28Anytime anytime any other firms are
482. 42:30running promos at this point, I'm using
483. 42:32them because like
484. 42:34what's the difference, you know? Like
485. 42:36they don't they don't even offer the 5k
486. 42:38payout cap anymore. So, if they're going
487. 42:40to charge $95 for an account and it's
488. 42:44the same rules as like Lucid or a
489. 42:45different account, I might as well just
490. 42:47go with whichever one's cheaper, right?
491. 43:09He has a special code with them.
492. 43:26>> Chino, did you get out at 30K? Because
493. 43:29that was realistically the target. I
494. 43:31just got like a late entry. So, and I'm
495. 43:33only in two micers, so I'm trying to
496. 43:34hold it.
497. 43:38>> I'm willing I'm willing to accept the
498. 43:40break even and then just call it a
499. 43:42session
500. 43:44cuz at that point, the plan would have
501. 43:46played out. The plan was for us to hit
502. 43:4830K and we just did. So, whatever
503. 43:51happens after this is kind of just like
504. 43:54either we slam back down after taking
505. 43:57the highs and punching into 30K
506. 44:02or we continue our way up towards 30,65
507. 44:05which would be ideal because I'm in a
508. 44:07long position. But
509. 44:09it's really not good how this fiveminute
510. 44:11candle closed.
511. 44:16>> [singing]
512. 44:28>> Okay, I'll check it out. Thanks for
513. 44:30letting me know.
514. 44:56See like this
515. 44:59is not a good sign. We have high stacked
516. 45:02here. We just took a psychological level
517. 45:04at level out that had a cluster of
518. 45:07orders
519. 45:09and we're failing to continue pressure
520. 45:11to the upside.
521. 45:13It's a pretty good chance we actually
522. 45:15come back to the break even.
523. 45:21But if we don't and we just kind of
524. 45:24stall here for a moment before we
525. 45:26continue,
526. 45:29then this is the only opportunity
527. 45:32[music] of the morning for me. So, I
528. 45:34might as well just try and hold it.
529. 45:37And it's not like I'm floating a crazy
530. 45:39amount of profit, right? Because like
531. 45:43I'm in two micros, so
532. 45:50we'll just let her ride.
533. 45:55[snorts]
534. 46:02The only thing I have a level that's
535. 46:04sitting here between
536. 46:08>> 85
537. 46:10and 71,
538. 46:20which at this point is the only thing
539. 46:21that's potentially saving me.
540. 46:25If we push up past these highs, I'm
541. 46:26trailing stop below this these candles.
542. 46:34Or actually, I don't know. I got to see
543. 46:36how much that would be because if it's
544. 46:38not even going to make it a winning day,
545. 46:39then what's the point actually?
546. 46:42[snorts]
547. 46:52I only went in two Dame because I was
548. 46:56going to see if we were going to dip
549. 46:57down harder and I was actually going to
550. 46:59add in more contracts around this area,
551. 47:01but I h I just I had a feeling it wasn't
552. 47:05going to get down here because we
553. 47:07[clears throat] had a lot of selling
554. 47:08pressure coming in right here and we
555. 47:10weren't actually pushing lower. So,
556. 47:13I didn't want to just like let it go
557. 47:15without me. So, I entered into micros
558. 47:18because I said I was watching this PC on
559. 47:21this candle as well as this low volume
560. 47:22node.
561. 47:24So, when it started bouncing up, I threw
562. 47:26on two micros. In the event that we came
563. 47:29down further, I would have added another
564. 47:30two micros to make it four. But I mean
565. 47:35there is the opportunity that you know
566. 47:37it continues up to our target at 65 64
567. 47:42and it'd be 120 points
568. 47:45which even with two micros it's like
569. 47:50still like 400 bucks. So
570. 47:54yeah I am using the new uh heat map.
571. 47:57It's on my other screen.
572. 48:06Yeah, it rejected pretty hard and just
573. 48:08uh continued up
574. 48:11because the original plan this morning
575. 48:13was realistically the main target was
576. 48:1530,000 and then we may we may
577. 48:18potentially see us continue up to 360 or
578. 48:2030,65 but
579. 48:24it is slightly
580. 48:27concerning that once we take you know
581. 48:2930,000 We're kind of struggling to push
582. 48:32higher, but
583. 48:38we'll just see what happens. We're
584. 48:40already in. We're already at break even.
585. 48:46Either we'll be up uh like 40 bucks
586. 48:53on the day or we'll be up 400 on the
587. 48:55day.
588. 49:02It's not too bad. Could be worse.
589. 49:13Yeah, I'm looking to see if we punch
590. 49:14above these highs, start taking some of
591. 49:16these orders, then I'm going to begin to
592. 49:18trail the stop.
593. 49:24And I'll probably I'll probably trail it
594. 49:26kind of tight if we do start punching
595. 49:28up. I'll probably trail it to the open
596. 49:29of this uh five minute.
597. 49:38Although the moment that we took 30,000,
598. 49:40if you look at this, volume is starting
599. 49:42to taper off. So hopefully we
600. 49:46re-engage,
601. 49:48kick back into high gear here, push
602. 49:50higher.
603. 50:18Just in case we spike above it and slam
604. 50:20down, I'm going to be ready to drop it
605. 50:22right here. If we get a little pump up
606. 50:28to take some of those orders. There's a
607. 50:29bunch of orders clustering right there.
608. 50:32You guys can see it on my chart here.
609. 50:34Let me move this back for a second.
610. 50:37Right around here. It's got to get
611. 50:40through all of that. And it's
612. 50:42struggling.
613. 51:19You are awesome.
614. 51:35You are
615. 51:40you are
616. 51:45you are
617. 51:50you are
618. 51:56you
619. 52:23Oh my goodness. Is this just going to
620. 52:25stop right here? Volume just dies out.
621. 52:32At least I go up a little bit so I could
622. 52:34throw my stop
623. 52:36so it wasn't just total waste of time.
624. 53:10But
625. 53:13oh, whoops.
626. 53:18Oh, you just called the market makers.
627. 53:20Oh, your call's working.
628. 53:24Come on, just pop above the highs.
629. 53:51All right, I'm going to drop it right
630. 53:52here.
631. 53:55So, we locked in a winning day.
632. 53:56Regardless, we'll either be up like 240
633. 54:00or 4 actually almost 500
634. 54:05490.
635. 54:08>> So, we'll see if we can get the
636. 54:09continuation and see if we can get our
637. 54:13120 points or if it's going to snap back
638. 54:19>> or if we're really a savage, should we
639. 54:21add should we [clears throat] add in an
640. 54:23order right here to add? Nah.
641. 54:29I'll just take the winning day
642. 54:33>> for the first day of this Lucid account.
643. 54:50>> The only thing I'm looking at right now
644. 54:51too is this. We're in one of my
645. 54:55zones,
646. 55:03>> which is why I wanted to move it. Move
647. 55:05this stop.
648. 55:30or do we add?
649. 55:33Is this the ad?
650. 55:35Might have been the ad.
651. 55:38Maybe not.
652. 55:48The only reason why I'm not adding
653. 55:49though, I kind of wanted to add, but I
654. 55:52just know that if I add, it may make it
655. 55:54so that my stop where it's at is going
656. 55:58to be
657. 56:00not enough profit to I want to at least
658. 56:04make like 200 bucks. You know what I
659. 56:06mean?
660. 56:07Lucid is 150 $150 for a day, right? Or
661. 56:11is it 200?
662. 56:26Cool. Oh, congrats on the payout, Chris.
663. 56:28You've been killing it recently.
664. 56:42What up, Mitchell?
665. 57:31Come on. We're really not that far away.
666. 57:32Just like another 100 ticks.
667. 57:50All right. I'm I'm going to trail it.
668. 57:52I'm trailing it.
669. 58:22So, we're almost at 100 points.
670. 58:36Almost at 100 points. We got some orders
671. 58:38sitting here at 30,50.
672. 58:43Few ticks away.
673. 58:50You know, you could sit here and you
674. 58:52could be like, oh, you know, we should
675. 58:53have taken this full size. But you know
676. 58:56what? At the end of the day, we we move
677. 58:59around enough um
678. 59:02where you can really, you know, build an
679. 59:04account with two micros. It's
680. 59:08I mean, yeah, we could sit here and be
681. 59:10like, "Oh, well, if I was in a mini, you
682. 59:12know, could have been two grand, but who
683. 59:14cares, dude?
684. 59:18Could have also been a big loss.
685. 59:27The moment that this candle flips
686. 59:28bullish, I'm trailing right below the
687. 59:30wick of it.
688. 59:32I like it to stay above the PC.
689. 59:39All right, so we locked in 100 points.
690. 59:41It's either 120 points or 100 points.
691. 59:49Oh, we're right there. Come on.
692. 59:52Should we just exit? Nah, let's hold it.
693. 1:00:01I was trying to The real level is 365. I
694. 1:00:04was trying to front run it by like a
695. 1:00:06point.
696. 1:00:11Maybe I should have front front ran it
697. 1:00:14by two points.
698. 1:00:28All right. It's all right. Oh. Oh, I
699. 1:00:31thought that was going to take me out.
700. 1:00:33Oh, it is going to take me out.
701. 1:00:36All right. So, we have locked in.
702. 1:00:45Entry is a little off. basically it was
703. 1:00:47like 100 points.
704. 1:00:50So
705. 1:00:53um are those intra candle PC's on the
706. 1:00:55footprint? Yeah. So these there's a PC
707. 1:00:58for every single candle on the
708. 1:01:00footprint.
709. 1:01:03This 365 area I was kind of
710. 1:01:07um what's it called?
711. 1:01:10This uh 365 area I was watching for us
712. 1:01:13to potentially
713. 1:01:17draw to based off of gamma for not the
714. 1:01:20zero DTE, the one DTE because we were
715. 1:01:23already above the call wall and the zero
716. 1:01:24DTE.
717. 1:01:26The reason why I took that trade,
718. 1:01:28Mitchell, is because
719. 1:01:31my plan this morning or kind of what I
720. 1:01:33wanted to see us do was
721. 1:01:36um I wanted us to come up to 30,000,
722. 1:01:40right? I wanted us to break 30,000. My
723. 1:01:42eyes were set on 30,000. So, I was when
724. 1:01:45we begin to pull back, I actually wanted
725. 1:01:48us to take these lows first and come
726. 1:01:50into this area and then I would have
727. 1:01:52been more inclined to try and take a
728. 1:01:54long position. I did notice that in this
729. 1:01:56area, sellers were getting absorbed. So,
730. 1:01:58if we like go down here, we were
731. 1:02:01watching sellers attempt to push lower
732. 1:02:02and they were really failing in this
733. 1:02:04area. But when this was happening, I
734. 1:02:07didn't really want to take it because
735. 1:02:11the location wasn't wasn't like
736. 1:02:15it didn't make a lot of sense for me. It
737. 1:02:17was right before these lows and we were
738. 1:02:20still kind of higher up here in this
739. 1:02:22active range. So, I basically mentioned
740. 1:02:25to the chat like if we pop back up then
741. 1:02:29I'll be waiting for sellers to try and
742. 1:02:30step in and fail and if they fail then
743. 1:02:33I'm going to go long. Right? So, we sat
744. 1:02:34here, we sat here, we waited. At this
745. 1:02:37point, I actually kind of thought that
746. 1:02:39we were going to potentially just run up
747. 1:02:42and I was just saying like, you know,
748. 1:02:44there's a pretty good chance today might
749. 1:02:46not even take a trade if that's going to
750. 1:02:47be the case if we take out 30,000.
751. 1:02:50But then we had this candle step in. So,
752. 1:02:54this bearish candle right here
753. 1:02:58when it was retracing, I was watching
754. 1:02:59two areas on the on this candle that
755. 1:03:02pushed up.
756. 1:03:04I was watching the PC of this candle,
757. 1:03:06which is sitting right here. Mother,
758. 1:03:12it was sitting right there. You could
759. 1:03:14see it. The PC, the little yellow box. I
760. 1:03:16was watching that and then I was
761. 1:03:17watching this low volume node that's
762. 1:03:19sitting in the middle of the candle.
763. 1:03:22I wanted us I was actually going to go
764. 1:03:24in five micros. Um
765. 1:03:28I was watching us come down lower. We
766. 1:03:31were pretty aggressive with the selling,
767. 1:03:33but they began to stall out right around
768. 1:03:35the PC and when we started snapping back
769. 1:03:37up, I got in with like only two micros
770. 1:03:40because
771. 1:03:42I didn't want to go full size. It would
772. 1:03:44have required I had a pretty large stop
773. 1:03:45loss. So initially my stop loss, this is
774. 1:03:49not accurate by the way. My stop loss
775. 1:03:51was like this.
776. 1:03:53So this was like a uh a one to one,
777. 1:03:57right? Because in the event that we did
778. 1:03:59get down here, then my entry would have
779. 1:04:00changed to being about here.
780. 1:04:04If I were to have added down here where
781. 1:04:06I was waiting, but we never got there.
782. 1:04:09So
783. 1:04:10instead, we just pushed up. So at this
784. 1:04:12point,
785. 1:04:15I hope that makes sense on why I went
786. 1:04:16long. And I'm looking at the reason why
787. 1:04:18I'm looking at 30,000 uh65
788. 1:04:22is because when it comes to um
789. 1:04:28I was looking at the 1DTE.
790. 1:04:30So we had net call open interest call
791. 1:04:33open interest um is a pretty stacked
792. 1:04:35level with a large positive node sitting
793. 1:04:38here. So in the event that we broke 30K
794. 1:04:42and we held above 30K then I was
795. 1:04:44imagining that this would be the draw.
796. 1:04:46It might have it might be like a slower
797. 1:04:48move up to take it, but we went to take
798. 1:04:51it or we went to hit it. So, that's kind
799. 1:04:54of my entire plan for this morning's
800. 1:04:58upside scenario for the session. At this
801. 1:05:02point,
802. 1:05:04there's uh
803. 1:05:07that's it. You know, like I'm not going
804. 1:05:09to sit here and try and form another
805. 1:05:10plan. We caught,
806. 1:05:14you know, 400 ticks or 100 points. It
807. 1:05:17was only with two micros, but
808. 1:05:21you know, 400 bucks with two micros,
809. 1:05:23dude. Like,
810. 1:05:25400 bucks is 400 bucks. Like,
811. 1:05:28so,
812. 1:05:30and it also helped because it did allow
813. 1:05:32me to have kind of a bigger stop
814. 1:05:34and I wasn't trailing as tight.
815. 1:05:37So like we were floating, you know, 75
816. 1:05:41points in profit. If I was in bigger
817. 1:05:43size, I may have tried to trail it a
818. 1:05:45little bit tighter, but because I was in
819. 1:05:47two micros, I kind of gave it more room
820. 1:05:48to breathe because I didn't really care
821. 1:05:52because once I mean, you know, once
822. 1:05:54we're up here, what's the
823. 1:05:55difference-wise between here and here?
824. 1:05:56It was like 200 bucks.
825. 1:05:59So it's not a big deal. So anyways,
826. 1:06:04chill. One trade, one win, caught 100
827. 1:06:06points.
828. 1:06:07Um,
829. 1:06:10unfortunately it was like half size of
830. 1:06:11what I was planning on doing, but it's
831. 1:06:13all right. Now we're in price discovery.
832. 1:06:16If you're going to try and short this,
833. 1:06:18don't.
834. 1:06:21That's what I would say. Uh,
835. 1:06:26it's just not a good idea.
836. 1:06:29But I will be back
837. 1:06:33tomorrow.
838. 1:06:36So peace.
