- 1:13All right.
- 2:50So, we're just going to wait. We're
- 2:52going to post up and wait for market
- 2:54open.
- 3:57Dude, we're going to try and see if I
- 3:58can bring this [Â __Â ] back.
- 4:00I had $50 of drawdown.
- 4:04Now, we got 140.
- 4:07We're going to try and
- 4:09I find this account sitting here for
- 4:10like a month now just like not doing
- 4:12anything.
- 4:15We're going to see if I can
- 4:18bring it out of the grave. I've done it
- 4:19before.
- 4:21You just got to be careful.
- 4:24For this one, I got to get a I got to
- 4:26get a pad on this one this week.
- 4:29For at least 2,000. So, we're going to
- 4:31try and not
- 4:33mess this one up.
- 4:52Currently
- 4:54in a short
- 4:56on an Evo. Let me show you.
- 5:03I've been holding this all morning.
- 5:08Since we're up here.
- 5:12But, it came back up. It was looking
- 5:13good for a second, but it came back up.
- 5:16Unfortunately.
- 5:21I was looking to see if we would
- 5:26take these lows.
- 5:31It's probably going to hit my break even
- 5:32though, but it's all right.
- 6:21I am kind of anticipating that we're
- 6:22going to just like
- 6:24potentially
- 6:27have a range here today.
- 6:32Unless
- 6:34something happens, but
- 6:39it does look like we could potentially
- 6:40just
- 6:44stay in this area.
- 10:23>> Uh I haven't I haven't said anything.
- 10:26I'm just chilling.
- 10:32Yeah, I'm just waiting. I started the
- 10:34stream a little early today.
- 10:37I try I'm currently uh let me show you
- 10:40guys. Hold on.
- 10:45I'm in this trade right now on this
- 10:47eval.
- 10:51Let me see if it's going to pull up.
- 10:52Yep, right here.
- 10:57I'm just holding it.
- 11:00Trying to basically get towards these
- 11:02lows.
- 11:04What I was thinking is
- 11:06we are at like uh
- 11:09a higher time frame decision point for
- 11:12me whether we're going to start
- 11:14accepting higher prices and uh pushing
- 11:17up
- 11:18or if we're going to turn around on a
- 11:19higher time frame.
- 11:21At least for the beginning of the week
- 11:22we'd be turning around in my opinion up
- 11:25here.
- 11:26That's what this big ass
- 11:28zone is.
- 11:29And so
- 11:30when I woke up this morning
- 11:33we were consolidating and I saw us do
- 11:34this fake push up.
- 11:36And the idea is that we would come lower
- 11:39and potentially target
- 11:41London lows. The only problem though is
- 11:43that
- 11:44today
- 11:46we're kind of in like uh
- 11:50like there's a pretty good chance today
- 11:52that we would actually
- 11:54potentially consolidate. Now it won't I
- 11:57don't think it'll be like a tight
- 11:58consolidation, but maybe like a larger
- 12:01range.
- 12:02So I got to be careful.
- 12:04And especially if we
- 12:07are struggling to break past this low.
- 12:09Like this is the second time that we're
- 12:10trying to do it.
- 12:14It may be kind of nasty today, but
- 12:17hopefully not. Hopefully we get a clean
- 12:18move.
- 12:21But I'm not going to sit here
- 12:23and try and anticipate it.
- 12:28But yeah, so just so you know, basically
- 12:31above here above 24,400
- 12:3524,460
- 12:39maybe 70.
- 12:41If we start accepting above these this
- 12:43price, then I'm expecting us to
- 12:45continue higher throughout the week, but
- 12:48if this high holds for the day
- 12:52at least for the morning session, then
- 12:53I'm looking for us to
- 12:55potentially come to London lows, which
- 12:58is the first target. And then if we
- 13:00continue with
- 13:01sustained selling pressure, then
- 13:04I'll be looking for us to come
- 13:06at least to these lows here.
- 13:11With
- 13:13potentially down here, but my eyes are
- 13:16on these lows.
- 13:20So we'll see what happens. We'll
- 13:22um
- 13:25we'll be a little careful. I'm trying to
- 13:27bring it bring this account back.
- 13:29So I took a
- 13:30>> [laughter]
- 13:32>> This account had $50 of drawdown in it.
- 13:35And I went in like one micro and then I
- 13:37kept adding micros trying to
- 13:40get this move down to
- 13:43I think I was in like five micros at one
- 13:45point on this account.
- 13:47I was trying to get it to like uh
- 13:50$600 balance again.
- 13:53But it came back
- 13:55and it tagged me out for like a $80 win.
- 13:57So we're going to just try again some
- 14:00other time.
- 14:02See if we can bring it back. There's
- 14:04been one time
- 14:06there's been one time where I took
- 14:09basically a failed like a blown account
- 14:12had $60 of drawdown in it.
- 14:16And I just would pyramid into positions.
- 14:19And I got it back to like 2500. So
- 14:23I'm going to try and do it again, but
- 14:26chances are we're going to blow it, but
- 14:28might as well just try.
- 14:30Still there. Why not just
- 14:33try and pyramid into something. It's
- 14:34probably better if I pyramid into gold
- 14:36though.
- 14:43Am I using volume profile? Um
- 14:46On another chart I do have volume
- 14:48profiles.
- 14:51Previous uh like daily volume profiles.
- 14:57But I don't really use them like that. I
- 14:58use volume profiles inside every candle.
- 15:02It's what these are.
- 15:12I mean it depends. Sometimes I'll use
- 15:13them, sometimes I'll use like a fixed
- 15:15range volume profile.
- 15:19It kind of just depends.
- 15:40Yeah, we're really struggling to get
- 15:42past this.
- 15:44It's not looking good.
- 15:49But it's an eval, so it's chill.
- 16:34My main focus right now though is
- 16:35getting this payout for this uh
- 16:40this funded account. So I can just start
- 16:43full porting evals.
- 16:49Because it's a new month.
- 16:51We need to build a little bit of a
- 16:52cushion of some
- 16:54payout profits.
- 16:55So we're not playing with my own money.
- 16:57We're playing with
- 16:59some house money.
- 17:21There's a lot of contracts sitting here
- 17:23at 450 331.
- 17:26That's on NQ.
- 17:33Or 250, my bad.
- 17:51What up, Joseph?
- 18:14What up, Rocket?
- 18:24I've been holding this uh I've been
- 18:26holding this trade like
- 18:29all pre-market. I got in when we were up
- 18:31here.
- 18:33I'm trying to get us to
- 18:35at least just take this low, but
- 18:38this is a eval.
- 18:57So I'm hoping that at least market open
- 18:59will like run down real quick and grab
- 19:01it before it starts to
- 19:03[Â __Â ] around and chop.
- 19:23But we've been struggling to break past
- 19:25it. We failed right here.
- 19:27We stalled out right here. So we'll see
- 19:28if we can actually get the push past it
- 19:30right now.
- 19:39Order filled.
- 19:43All right.
- 19:45>> [clears throat]
- 19:52>> Oh, it's
- 19:54>> Oh, that's [Â __Â ] whack. I need 70 more
- 19:56bucks on this.
- 20:09All right, so now what I'm watching for
- 20:10the open is I'm going to see if we're
- 20:12going to continue down to London lows.
- 20:16Or if we're just going to snap back up
- 20:17into this.
- 20:35That's nasty.
- 20:39That's nasty.
- 20:44Dude, thank god I put my TP right there.
- 20:46Whew.
- 21:04But today I'm going to be a little
- 21:05careful about uh
- 21:08some potential
- 21:10whiplash and
- 21:12some potential chop.
- 21:40Thanks, Jeremy.
- 21:45Should we try and get this up? Dude, the
- 21:46problem is though is like if I try and
- 21:48bring this account back
- 21:50>> [laughter]
- 21:51>> there's it's a consistency funded
- 21:53account.
- 21:59Let me see if I can Let me see if I can
- 22:00snag a little bit.
- 22:02Snag a little bit of cash for this one.
- 22:07You know what? We should just [Â __Â ]
- 22:09blow this account.
- 22:19Here, I'm going to just add to this if
- 22:21it starts coming down.
- 22:25I just need to This thing's just like
- 22:27sitting here.
- 22:30Order filled.
- 22:36Should I just go one mini and try and
- 22:42This account has $100 of drawdown.
- 22:47Here, I'm just going to blow this real
- 22:48quick. One second.
- 22:48>> Order filled.
- 23:10Ooh, scale some out. Scale some out.
- 23:12>> Order filled.
- 23:14Damn, we're going to make a comeback
- 23:16on this account. Let's just hold this.
- 23:20Let's just target uh London lows.
- 23:29The comeback of all comebacks. That'd be
- 23:31hilarious. I've done it once.
- 23:35This account's probably going to get
- 23:36blown though because I can't like I
- 23:39can't get a windfall day on this account
- 23:41cuz it'll just I'll never be able to get
- 23:43a payout on it.
- 23:43>> Order filled.
- 23:46It's all right. We got $245 of drawdown
- 23:48now.
- 23:51We started this uh
- 23:53We started this morning with $50 of
- 23:55drawdown.
- 23:58Not bad.
- 24:01We'll slowly bring that one back.
- 24:08But it looks like we're probably going
- 24:10to start pushing up.
- 24:17But on um
- 24:20I'm watching these uh gamma levels right
- 24:23now.
- 24:24Here and here.
- 24:27Speaking of that, let me fix this.
- 24:39So, I'm watching
- 24:41these two gamma levels which are on QQQ.
- 24:43It's uh 589 and 590.
- 24:49Yeah. Oh, my bad.
- 24:51These ones.
- 24:55The The more important one though,
- 24:56honestly, is is this one sitting at 590.
- 25:05But this is This is a uh
- 25:09This isn't the type of call wall that
- 25:11you would just like
- 25:13try and fade when it touches this
- 25:15because this has the
- 25:19the most
- 25:21It has It's the second biggest absolute
- 25:23GEX level and it also has uh net call
- 25:25open interest and call open interest.
- 25:28So, this is more of like a
- 25:31decision. If we continue above this
- 25:33though, then we'll probably actually
- 25:35move up, but
- 25:37there's a chance that we can come up
- 25:38here and then just like kind of pin
- 25:42or
- 25:43wait for a reaction.
- 25:47Hold on. I need to make 70 bucks on
- 25:49this. You go.
- 26:18>> [snorts]
- 26:25>> Hmm.
- 26:28That's a nasty snapback.
- 26:33How big is that?
- 26:3770 points.
- 26:47Jeez.
- 26:58Let me try and make 70 bucks real quick.
- 27:01Order filled.
- 27:03Oop.
- 27:05Wait, I'm making too much.
- 27:08Wait.
- 27:10Wait.
- 27:11Oh, [Â __Â ]
- 27:14TP.
- 27:17Order filled.
- 27:19All right, we got it.
- 27:34All right, hold on.
- 27:47I'm going to go short on the funded
- 27:50account.
- 27:51But I'm going to have a pretty tight
- 27:54stop loss. I'm going to
- 28:00I'm going to risk the profits right here
- 28:03that I have this morning.
- 28:06Ooh, we're about to get stopped out of
- 28:07that.
- 28:10We're going to wait.
- 28:46Dude, that 15-minute candle is nasty.
- 28:52Whew.
- 29:27Should we try and make a comeback on
- 29:28this account still?
- 29:32Uh
- 29:37Yeah, I just I don't want us to just
- 29:39like
- 29:40chop right here.
- 29:45I don't know. I think we can make a
- 29:46comeback.
- 30:13Order filled.
- 30:15All right, let's see if we could make
- 30:16some more profit on this account. Let's
- 30:18risk uh
- 30:21Let's risk our profits here.
- 30:32Ooh, break even.
- 30:33Ooh, scale some out.
- 30:34>> Order filled. Order filled.
- 30:38And then I'm going to see if I could if
- 30:39this will drop
- 30:44down here.
- 30:56Order filled. All right.
- 31:00All right, now this account's up to 330.
- 31:24The comeback is looking like there
- 31:26there's actually some potential here.
- 31:37Hmm.
- 31:41I just got to be I got to be careful cuz
- 31:43it has the consistency rule on it.
- 31:46And plus
- 31:48I need to get the balance to like
- 31:51I don't know.
- 31:532,500 or something
- 31:55to even be able to pull a payout on this
- 31:57account.
- 31:58But we may be able to bring it back. We
- 32:01may be able to bring it back.
- 32:14I'm just going to wait for a second
- 32:16though.
- 32:49Should we
- 32:52try and fade this range?
- 33:05This looks gross.
- 33:29The odds you take a trade today? Well,
- 33:31if you're actually going to be not
- 33:33trying to force something, probably kind
- 33:35of low.
- 33:39Just because
- 33:43I mean, look at this.
- 33:53I don't know. I'm I might try and force
- 33:55something.
- 33:56I'm kind of tempted to try and short it
- 33:57right here.
- 34:05Dude, the 15 minute
- 34:07went all the way down, was down here
- 34:09with a nasty wick, and it came all the
- 34:11way back up.
- 34:36Um it says that
- 34:38there's a Trump White House egg roll for
- 34:41Easter, so
- 34:43I don't know if um
- 34:47if that'll necessarily do something, but
- 34:49you know what? You never know.
- 34:52Maybe the egg roll he'll say something
- 34:54crazy.
- 35:00Oh, maybe.
- 35:02Order filled.
- 35:03>> to try and go short right here.
- 35:11Try and fade this range, but if we start
- 35:14popping up, then
- 35:16it is what it is.
- 35:39Order filled.
- 35:45Cooked.
- 36:15I think I'm going to
- 36:16I think I'm just going to wait for us to
- 36:17get out of here.
- 36:49I'm going to be watching when we start
- 36:50getting into this area though.
- 37:11No, I don't trade options.
- 37:14Just futures.
- 37:24Now, if there were some notable and
- 37:26trustworthy options prop firms, that
- 37:29could be interesting.
- 37:44I think there's probably some out there,
- 37:45but they're probably shady to be honest.
- 37:48But probably wouldn't want to
- 37:51mess around with them.
- 38:08I just feel like with prop firms for
- 38:10futures
- 38:13just can't be beat, dude. Like the
- 38:16the ROI potential is just
- 38:19too good.
- 38:43Yeah, for sure for leverage.
- 39:14If I'm able to bring this account back,
- 39:15I'll be pretty proud about that.
- 39:21From a $50 drawdown. Let's go. We got
- 39:24it.
- 41:14>> Yeah, for sure.
- 41:17Unfortunately, we're not really doing
- 41:19much right now, but
- 41:22Yeah, I always have it up.
- 41:25Cuz I use it.
- 41:29It's actually on multiple screens right
- 41:31now. You guys just can't really see it.
- 41:33You just see
- 41:34one screen.
- 41:51The good news is that we hit profit
- 41:53target on our lucid account. So, we're
- 41:56just
- 42:00trying to see if
- 42:01we're going to do anything or if we're
- 42:03just going to end up
- 42:05like
- 42:08snapping back and forth this morning.
- 42:22We just took pre-market highs and then
- 42:23now we're in like positive gamma
- 42:25territory, so
- 42:27oops.
- 42:36Uh this isn't a volume profile. This is
- 42:37the DOM.
- 42:39I just have it inside the candles.
- 44:47Uh I [Â __Â ] up my profits on this
- 44:49account. I was up 200.
- 44:51Now I'm down 200.
- 44:58You know what a smart trader does is
- 44:59they
- 45:00We just got to size up and make it back.
- 45:04We just got to uh triple our size.
- 45:10And then we'll make it back three times
- 45:11as fast.
- 45:38I think we're going to come up here.
- 47:57What Justin, did you try to short it up
- 47:58up here?
- 48:07I'm I'm watching to see if we're about
- 48:09or if we're just like doing a slow grind
- 48:11up here to this area.
- 48:47Dude, the overnight session had some
- 48:48nice moves.
- 48:53Especially during Asia.
- 48:57Jeez.
- 49:15Look at the overnight moves and then
- 49:19the [Â __Â ] we're doing right now.
- 49:27No, I've never used WeBull before.
- 50:26>> Oh, that was nasty. Oh, that was nasty.
- 50:34Jeez.
- 51:02So, this area is an important area
- 51:06that I'm watching
- 51:08to see what it does.
- 51:13Damn, that
- 51:15that 4-hour open was disgusting.
- 51:21How big was that wick?
- 51:2440 points?
- 52:13Oh, they added footprints and TPO to
- 52:14WeBull. I've never really used WeBull,
- 52:16nor have I had a reason to do do it use
- 52:19it because I don't
- 52:23I don't trade options.
- 53:40I want to see how this 5 minutes going
- 53:42to close.
- 53:44Looks pretty nasty though.
- 53:58Sorry.
- 54:04This is the eval.
- 54:10That was a
- 54:13That was a [Â __Â ] dick move. My bad. I
- 54:15was [Â __Â ] just looking at this. I just
- 54:17wanted to try it on the eval.
- 54:22I'm trying to go for the pass on this
- 54:24single trade.
- 54:26But I didn't uh I didn't say anything. I
- 54:28didn't
- 54:31You caught me. My bad.
- 54:46I was thinking about taking it on my
- 54:47funded account, but I wanted to see the
- 54:495-minute close first, but
- 54:52it started moving pretty quickly.
- 54:57Actually, I need to extend this just in
- 54:59case.
- 55:00All right.
- 55:03So, if
- 55:06I'm actually going to trail the stop.
- 55:13I'm going to try and pass this account
- 55:15this trade because there's it's a alpha
- 55:18zero.
- 55:21What a nasty drop, dude. I should have
- 55:23taken that on my [Â __Â ] funded account.
- 55:28Well, that's
- 55:30I passed that account. Let's watch this
- 55:31now.
- 55:39I'm actually going to if this flips if
- 55:41this flips, I'm going to get into this
- 55:45with 10 micros.
- 55:47See if the pressure's going to continue
- 55:49to the downside and we would be
- 55:50targeting London lows.
- 55:54If I lose this trade though, like if it
- 55:56snaps down and then comes back up really
- 55:58quick,
- 55:59I'mma move it to break even the moment
- 56:01we get past this uh
- 56:03previous 5-minute low.
- 56:06But if I end up if it like hits my limit
- 56:09and then pops back up,
- 56:11then
- 56:13I'mma just have to take the L on it.
- 56:16Order filled.
- 56:21See if you can get a push down past
- 56:23these orders.
- 56:33I'mma have to
- 56:50All right. I'm going to move it to break
- 56:52even. I'd like to see us just start to
- 56:54flush from here
- 56:56and not [Â __Â ] around.
- 57:01But if we hit break even, it is what it
- 57:02is, but we're going for like a $1,500
- 57:04TP.
- 57:13Order filled.
- 57:14Boo.
- 57:25Uh my [Â __Â ] funded account.
- 57:39Dude, what a nasty move off of this
- 57:42area up here.
- 57:45It happened so quickly.
- 57:51At least I caught it on that eval and I
- 57:53passed that eval, but [Â __Â ] dude, like
- 58:08The only thing is like the first time we
- 58:10tried to push down, we had sellers get
- 58:12absorbed right here, so I'm worried that
- 58:15trying to follow shorts right here, what
- 58:17would end up happening is we just start
- 58:18whiplashing. This is a large range now.
- 58:23Like if we were to come back up to the
- 58:24POC of the previous 5 minutes, like
- 58:28over 50 points, where would you put your
- 58:30stop?
- 58:35So, I was trying to go with this like
- 58:37momentum move, hoping that we would just
- 58:40begin to flush, basically.
- 58:43Take these orders out, get past this
- 58:44area, and then
- 58:47start coming down here.
- 58:51But it just kind of started to stall, so
- 58:54it took us out break even.
- 59:03Support and resistance and supply and
- 59:05demand
- 59:07using volume.
- 59:09No, I don't do that.
- 59:24So, we're down 200 on this account.
- 59:26We're up we passed one account. We hit
- 59:29profit target on another account.
- 59:35I want to see if there's an opportunity
- 59:36for me to get back into the green
- 59:40on this funded account so I can get a
- 59:41winning day. Cuz I think
- 59:45I think I only have
- 59:49I only have two winning days
- 59:50on this account.
- 59:53So I need three.
- 59:55So if I want to get a payout this week,
- 59:57I got to
- 1:00:01I got to squeeze something out.
- 1:00:07We just got to be careful about
- 1:00:13the big ass range right here.
- 1:00:35How big was this?
- 1:00:38Jeez.
- 1:00:43Well, at least we have speed picking up.
- 1:00:48Cuz when we were like slowly coming up
- 1:00:50here, it was kind of nasty.
- 1:00:54See if it's going to
- 1:00:56continue lower if we're going to just
- 1:01:00[Â __Â ] around or
- 1:01:16Damn, it looks so
- 1:01:19This hourly looks crazy.
- 1:01:46You know what though? Not a bad morning
- 1:01:48so far. I know we kind of [Â __Â ] up the
- 1:01:50profits on this, but
- 1:01:54we're making a little comeback on this
- 1:01:56account. It's been dead for like a
- 1:01:57month. It's just been sitting here.
- 1:02:00Now we got another funded account.
- 1:02:02And one that's halfway done.
- 1:02:08Dude, did you guys see what Trump was
- 1:02:09tweeting on Truth Social about tomorrow?
- 1:02:13Said something about tomorrow.
- 1:02:19I like let me read it to you guys.
- 1:02:21He said some crazy [Â __Â ] dude. Yeah, he
- 1:02:24said some crazy [Â __Â ] Let me
- 1:02:26Let me look.
- 1:02:30Tomorrow might be hectic.
- 1:02:42Where's it at?
- 1:02:49He said
- 1:02:52He said Tuesday will be power plant day
- 1:02:54and bridge day all wrapped up in one in
- 1:02:57Iran. There will be nothing like it.
- 1:02:59Open the [Â __Â ] straight, you crazy
- 1:03:01bastards, or you'll be in living hell.
- 1:03:03Just watch. Praise be to Allah.
- 1:03:06Sheesh.
- 1:03:08Sheesh. And then he said Tuesday, 8:00
- 1:03:11p.m. Eastern time.
- 1:03:18Uh dude.
- 1:03:27Yeah.
- 1:03:29Dude, I feel It's crazy. Like imagine
- 1:03:31starting to learn how to trade in these
- 1:03:33conditions.
- 1:03:36Hey, you know what though? If you're
- 1:03:37learning how to trade in these
- 1:03:37conditions
- 1:03:40when later down the road when things get
- 1:03:42a little bit more chill
- 1:03:45probably be pretty good.
- 1:03:48It's pretty tough right now.
- 1:03:52At least for me.
- 1:03:56Ever since March
- 1:03:58it's just been kind of rough.
- 1:04:01New York's been chopping.
- 1:04:07And then we have like just random tweets
- 1:04:09that just like [Â __Â ] push the market
- 1:04:11around.
- 1:04:14It's kind of difficult to read for me.
- 1:04:23He never follows through with anything,
- 1:04:24Taco.
- 1:04:28Yeah, so I like yesterday I had a bunch
- 1:04:30of stuff I had to do, but I mean, dude,
- 1:04:33like look at Okay, look at New York,
- 1:04:36okay?
- 1:04:38Then look at the overnights. Like why
- 1:04:39can't
- 1:04:41Do I have to just start only trading
- 1:04:44Asia?
- 1:04:47I usually trade gold.
- 1:04:51Oh, Trump always chickens out, Taco.
- 1:04:59Like this was This is nice. I should
- 1:05:01have been trading this last night. This
- 1:05:02is actually These are large moves.
- 1:05:07129 points.
- 1:05:11200 points.
- 1:05:14>> [snorts]
- 1:05:15>> What was I doing?
- 1:05:18Now I'm over here trading this [Â __Â ]
- 1:05:23Yeah, Asia's the new meta for sure.
- 1:05:29Oh, look at gold. That's disgusting.
- 1:05:33That's disgusting.
- 1:05:37Damn, gold had a pretty big move.
- 1:05:42Jeez.
- 1:05:46Yeah, like nowadays
- 1:05:48I'm just like anticipating
- 1:05:53New York to just like chop every morning
- 1:05:56until proven otherwise. Guilty until
- 1:05:58proven
- 1:06:00that it's not going to chop.
- 1:06:03Or at least range.
- 1:06:09Uh I usually use 50K account sizes.
- 1:06:1550Ks are chill for me.
- 1:06:21Cuz like for the bigger accounts, I
- 1:06:22don't really
- 1:06:24I don't really use the
- 1:06:26more contracts anyways, so
- 1:06:31Although who knows? Maybe Maybe I'll
- 1:06:32start uh using bigger accounts, but
- 1:06:35it's just easier to pass 50Ks.
- 1:06:39And like at the end of the day, like
- 1:06:43it's not like I'm over here trading five
- 1:06:44minis or like
- 1:06:47>> [snorts]
- 1:06:47>> 10 minis on um
- 1:06:50my funded accounts anyway, so
- 1:06:54Like even when I have a bigger balance
- 1:06:57I'm still not really doing that.
- 1:07:02But what I do do is like let's say I get
- 1:07:05this balance up to like 5K, 6K again,
- 1:07:07cuz it was at It was at like eight grand
- 1:07:10last week.
- 1:07:11And then I took a payout.
- 1:07:13So it went down to four grand and then
- 1:07:15now we're down a little bit, but
- 1:07:18um
- 1:07:19when I build the balance in it, I will
- 1:07:21use like one or two minis.
- 1:07:26But for now
- 1:07:2810 micros. I would usually Right now I'm
- 1:07:30using anywhere from like
- 1:07:32five to 10 micros probably.
- 1:07:35Unless I'm pyramiding into a winning
- 1:07:36position, then I'll add whatever.
- 1:07:57Should we continue to try and bring this
- 1:07:59account back a little bit?
- 1:08:03Trading chop.
- 1:08:09We six times the balance today.
- 1:08:12We made 600% on our balance today.
- 1:08:17500 or whatever.
- 1:08:22See if we can turn 50 bucks to a
- 1:08:23thousand.
- 1:08:46Yeah, the ratio between drawdown and
- 1:08:48profit target begins to
- 1:08:51it becomes larger
- 1:08:53with the bigger accounts.
- 1:09:00And plus like a lot of firms have payout
- 1:09:03caps, so
- 1:09:06if you're going to get a bigger account,
- 1:09:08you should
- 1:09:09I would do I would do a bigger account
- 1:09:11that has either a big payout cap or no
- 1:09:13payout cap. Otherwise, like
- 1:09:16what's the point?
- 1:09:22Like let's say you get a 150K account
- 1:09:26but their payout cap is like
- 1:09:283 grand or something.
- 1:09:32Well, what's the point of having all the
- 1:09:34extra contracts if you can only take out
- 1:09:373 grand?
- 1:09:47Because with the way that we're moving
- 1:09:48recently in like these I mean 100 point
- 1:09:50moves are happening all over the place.
- 1:09:52We I mean
- 1:09:54I mean we're just doing one right now.
- 1:09:57And we did one just a second ago.
- 1:09:59So like with two minis
- 1:10:03you can
- 1:10:04make whatever.
- 1:10:05You you can make a good amount of money
- 1:10:07with two minis.
- 1:11:16Dude, please NQ. Just give me a chance.
- 1:11:20Give me a chance to make some money
- 1:11:21back.
- 1:11:34I just need a good opportunity to try
- 1:11:36and make 50 point or try and hit a 50
- 1:11:38point TP.
- 1:11:40With five micros.
- 1:11:43That's it.
- 1:11:52But if I take another trade on this
- 1:11:53account and I lose, I'll probably be
- 1:11:55down like 500 and then I'm just going to
- 1:11:57have to stop.
- 1:12:04And then we're going to make it
- 1:12:05difficult to pull a payout this week,
- 1:12:07which is going to be [Â __Â ] whack, but
- 1:12:09whatever.
- 1:13:04I'm trying to see if we're going to
- 1:13:07come back up to this area again.
- 1:13:11Or if we're going to just roll over back
- 1:13:13into
- 1:13:16just do another one of these.
- 1:13:23But we're in like a
- 1:13:27We're in like a balance right now, so
- 1:13:29it's kind of
- 1:13:37not ideal.
- 1:13:38Honestly.
- 1:14:20Also, if you guys are
- 1:14:24quick plug quick plug.
- 1:14:27If you guys are using uh
- 1:14:30Alpha Futures
- 1:14:32where you can pass in one day like I did
- 1:14:34today.
- 1:14:36It's 25% off last day
- 1:14:39using code Thrax.
- 1:14:41T H R A X X.
- 1:14:46You can pass them in one day.
- 1:14:51Just had to do my quick
- 1:15:20[snorts]
- 1:17:35plug in decent move during lunch or the
- 1:17:38PM session, but right now we're kind of
- 1:17:39just bullshitting around.
- 1:17:43Uh if you hit a 50k balance
- 1:17:46um
- 1:17:50I think the most I don't know. I think
- 1:17:52the most you can take in payouts is like
- 1:17:5450k from an account. I don't really know
- 1:17:56to be honest.
- 1:17:59My other funded account I made 40k
- 1:18:01profits on it or a little over 40k.
- 1:18:06And I pulled out most of it except for
- 1:18:08like 7 grand of it.
- 1:18:12And then I blew it
- 1:18:14beginning of March.
- 1:18:29But I needed to get this payout from
- 1:18:31this account so that I start the month
- 1:18:33off in the green and then
- 1:18:36get some more funded accounts with
- 1:18:37Topstep.
- 1:18:39And then I'll probably if I have enough
- 1:18:41if I have like four or five fundeds,
- 1:18:42I'll probably try and just full port
- 1:18:43one.
- 1:18:46Just see if I can
- 1:18:47get up to a 10k balance real quick.
- 1:18:57Although this month
- 1:18:59I'm probably not going to gamble on CPI.
- 1:19:03I feel like it's going to be kind of
- 1:19:04nasty
- 1:19:05this one.
- 1:19:15I'm going to wait for this 15 minute
- 1:19:16candle to open and if nothing really
- 1:19:18happens or we don't start like moving
- 1:19:19around a little bit
- 1:19:21probably just have to call it and take
- 1:19:23our $200 L.
- 1:19:33Cuz there's I mean
- 1:19:37there's no point in trading this
- 1:19:39anymore.
- 1:19:40If it's going to just do this.
- 1:19:48If you make 5K profit and you withdraw
- 1:19:515K
- 1:19:54No, it would be at 50K and you can only
- 1:19:57withdraw
- 1:19:5850% of your profit. So, if you made 5K
- 1:20:01profit, you'd only be able to take a
- 1:20:03$2,500 payout.
- 1:20:06And then you'd have $2,500 left in your
- 1:20:08account.
- 1:20:10And if you lose that, then you blow the
- 1:20:12account.
- 1:22:50Order filled. Oh, that was a late entry.
- 1:22:53[Â __Â ] me.
- 1:22:57Oh, we're going to have to risk more
- 1:22:59than I thought.
- 1:23:01Nasty.
- 1:23:03I tried to get in when it started to
- 1:23:04flip, but I clicked it late.
- 1:23:10I kind of [Â __Â ] myself.
- 1:23:17So, when I lose this if I lose this
- 1:23:19trade right now, I'm just going to have
- 1:23:20to stop. That was uh
- 1:23:22[Â __Â ] bad.
- 1:23:40Damn, that was like terrible timing.
- 1:25:09Oh.
- 1:25:10It's gross.
- 1:26:50It's not looking good for me right now.
- 1:26:53We're not getting any type of follow
- 1:26:54through.
- 1:26:55And I bottom ticked.
- 1:26:58I bottom ticked that entry like a
- 1:26:59[Â __Â ] [Â __Â ]
- 1:27:18Yeah, we'll save ourselves a couple
- 1:27:19schmuckles.
- 1:27:22We'll move it to the top of the
- 1:27:235-minute.
- 1:27:27Cuz if it's going to fail to push down,
- 1:27:30we're probably going to come up to uh
- 1:27:35probably come up here.
- 1:27:41If we slam through these orders though,
- 1:27:43when you come into this area, I'm going
- 1:27:44to have to move it to break even. I just
- 1:27:46had like such a [Â __Â ] shitty entry.
- 1:28:15Yeah, Wave, it's probably a good idea to
- 1:28:17call it a day.
- 1:28:29I'm going to call it a day after this
- 1:28:30trade.
- 1:28:41Oh, [Â __Â ] No. No, I wasn't paying
- 1:28:44attention. [Â __Â ]
- 1:28:48[Â __Â ]
- 1:28:50I'm getting out of this [Â __Â ] dude. What
- 1:28:52the [Â __Â ] was that?
- 1:28:55It just took the orders and then
- 1:28:58Oh, [Â __Â ]
- 1:29:02Whatever, dude. [Â __Â ] this market.
- 1:29:14Oh, don't get don't edge me like that,
- 1:29:16please.
- 1:29:20Yo.
- 1:29:23Yo.
- 1:29:26No [Â __Â ] way. Wait, hold on.
- 1:29:30No, let's just leave it.
- 1:29:35Dude, no [Â __Â ] way.
- 1:29:44>> [snorts]
- 1:29:48>> Brother.
- 1:29:50Please, stop doing this.
- 1:29:54Order filled.
- 1:29:55>> All right.
- 1:29:56Wow.
- 1:30:00Damn.
- 1:30:02It's all right. We're over up 300.
- 1:30:06Dude, what a [Â __Â ] shitty ass trade.
- 1:30:08Oh my gosh.
- 1:30:17Honestly, I got so lucky that that
- 1:30:18played out for 50 points, dude. Like
- 1:30:28That is wild.
- 1:30:32Well.
- 1:30:35I'm going to uh lock out of this. I need
- 1:30:37the winning day on it. So, we'll just
- 1:30:39lock out of this account. We got pretty
- 1:30:41lucky on that. That was nasty. I was
- 1:30:43like so
- 1:30:45I guess I got kind of lucky because
- 1:30:47well, I definitely got lucky because we
- 1:30:49had these orders that were sitting right
- 1:30:51here.
- 1:30:52And I was worried that we would take the
- 1:30:54orders and then snap back up for a push
- 1:30:57higher.
- 1:31:00So, I was going to
- 1:31:02move my stop to break even.
- 1:31:07And then I didn't have it just happened
- 1:31:08way too fast. I I wasn't paying
- 1:31:10attention.
- 1:31:11It would have take if I moved it to
- 1:31:13break even though it would have taken me
- 1:31:14out of break even.
- 1:31:17And then it would have gone down to TP.
- 1:31:21Damn, we got lucky. It hit just barely
- 1:31:23hit TP, too. That was a
- 1:31:28That was a blessing.
- 1:31:30A terrible trade that just happened to
- 1:31:32work out.
- 1:31:34Just
- 1:31:35just by pure luck.
- 1:31:37[Â __Â ]
- 1:31:40Yeah, this
- 1:31:42This is gross, dude.
- 1:31:50Yeah, that TP Wait, hold on.
- 1:31:54Did we Did we just get like
- 1:31:58296?
- 1:32:01All right, TP was like right here.
- 1:32:03Yeah.
- 1:32:11Crazy.
- 1:32:17Same thing happened with the with the
- 1:32:19alpha trade, too.
- 1:32:21Dude, this is gross. What is Is there
- 1:32:23something happening right now?
- 1:32:30Oh, they're talking about the Okay, I
- 1:32:32see. I see. I see.
- 1:32:38Well, maybe we might have a massive move
- 1:32:40out of this
- 1:32:41balance.
- 1:32:53We'll see if we can
- 1:32:55Let's see Let's
- 1:32:56Should we trade this account? See if we
- 1:32:57can bring it back up.
- 1:32:59See if we can get to like a thousand
- 1:33:00bucks.
- 1:33:24I'm going to put a stop sell for 10
- 1:33:26micros.
- 1:33:30We'll try and scalp our way to uh
- 1:33:36to a thousand bucks from $50 account
- 1:33:39balance today. We'll try We'll go We'll
- 1:33:41try and do a $50 to $1,000 balance.
- 1:33:44Or
- 1:33:45blow the account.
- 1:33:48I don't really want this account
- 1:33:49anyways. It's a [Â __Â ]
- 1:33:52consistency account.
- 1:33:59But if we do bring it back,
- 1:34:02it would be pretty funny.
- 1:34:15Although with 10 micros, we have about
- 1:34:1780 ticks of available drawdown.
- 1:34:24Which is
- 1:34:26pretty sketchy, especially when you're
- 1:34:28trying to do a breakout of a
- 1:34:30of a range, the most likely
- 1:34:33result of this trade is it's going to
- 1:34:36tag me in and snap it back, but I'm down
- 1:34:37to try it anyways.
- 1:34:46We're actually Well, we have the
- 1:34:4715-minute bell to open. We should
- 1:34:48probably wait.
- 1:35:13If it doesn't tag us in on this 5-minute
- 1:35:15candle in 10 seconds, then we're just
- 1:35:16going to take it away.
- 1:35:25All right.
- 1:36:52Yeah, let's just give it a shot.
- 1:36:57Break the lows.
- 1:37:30Oh, didn't have a chance to add.
- 1:37:35Slowly scalp our way back.
- 1:37:42Let's get out down here at the lows.
- 1:37:44Actually, no. That's [Â __Â ] This is
- 1:37:46This account's going to die anyways.
- 1:37:47Let's
- 1:37:49Let's take it to uh
- 1:37:51206.
- 1:37:55See if we can come up a thousand bucks.
- 1:38:26Oh, it's going to
- 1:38:28It's going to take us out.
- 1:38:35So, all right. We'll capture 55 bucks.
- 1:38:43Or if we're if we're savage, let's add.
- 1:38:52Order filled.
- 1:38:55All right. Now, we'll capture 82 bucks.
- 1:39:00Oh, the comeback is real. Let's [Â __Â ]
- 1:39:03go.
- 1:39:05Let's go.
- 1:39:09Order filled.
- 1:39:10>> Dude.
- 1:39:13We 10 times our balance today.
- 1:39:20I should have held that. I was being a
- 1:39:21little [Â __Â ] honestly. I should have I
- 1:39:23should have held it.
- 1:39:28But, you know what? We could just do it
- 1:39:29again.
- 1:39:30We'll just do it again.
- 1:39:35Order filled.
- 1:39:38Go. Go. Go.
- 1:39:43Order filled. All right, whatever.
- 1:40:09Dude, that's funny. I realized P&L is
- 1:40:11$545
- 1:40:12and the balance is 596.
- 1:40:15>> [laughter]
- 1:40:19>> All right, look. Here's the strat. We're
- 1:40:20going to switch over to NQ now. Now that
- 1:40:22we got 600 bucks.
- 1:40:27Look. We're going to do two minis.
- 1:40:30We're going to do two minis. And
- 1:40:32immediately, if it tags us in, move it
- 1:40:34to break even.
- 1:40:41Also, if you're watching me do this,
- 1:40:43don't take any of these trades. I'm just
- 1:40:45literally [Â __Â ] gambling on this
- 1:40:47account to see if we could
- 1:40:49get it to a thousand bucks or
- 1:40:52lose it.
- 1:41:01There's 60 ticks of drawdown.
- 1:41:05Either we Order filled.
- 1:41:06>> up or we blow the account right now.
- 1:41:13No.
- 1:41:18All of the hard work
- 1:41:20gone.
- 1:41:22It's all right.
- 1:41:33All right, it's gone.
- 1:41:34It's like one tick away from being
- 1:41:36blown.
- 1:41:38Order filled. Bum. Bum. Bum.
- 1:41:42It's fine. There's no way like I could
- 1:41:44bring that [Â __Â ] back anyways.
- 1:41:46If it was honestly though, if this
- 1:41:48wasn't a like a consistency account,
- 1:41:53I would have
- 1:41:54tried a little harder and not have tried
- 1:41:56to full port that right now, but
- 1:42:00at the end of the day, I really [Â __Â ]
- 1:42:02up getting that consistency account
- 1:42:04because
- 1:42:05uh like they took it away.
- 1:42:08Because like
- 1:42:12how am I supposed to make it? It would
- 1:42:14take me forever. It'd honestly just be a
- 1:42:15waste of time.
- 1:42:18It would take me forever to bring that
- 1:42:20thing back.
- 1:42:33Hey, we did we did a decent job though.
- 1:42:34We started with 50 bucks.
- 1:42:36It was basically blown anyways.
- 1:42:39Got it. We got it back to 550 and then
- 1:42:42it died.
- 1:43:10I have another eval though. This is a
- 1:43:11Fidus 50k static or 25k static. I might
- 1:43:15not trade it today though cuz
- 1:43:18we're approaching my my cutoff time
- 1:43:21that I usually stop trading, which is
- 1:43:238:00 a.m. Pacific Standard.
- 1:44:00Well, how did you guys do today? Are you
- 1:44:01guys green?
- 1:44:03Are you red?
- 1:44:06Talk to me. Tell me.
- 1:44:09Oh and one? It's all right.
- 1:44:14What about you, Rocket?
- 1:44:16How are you doing today?
- 1:44:21Green? That's good.
- 1:44:23Green?
- 1:44:25Fire.
- 1:44:30A bit of a tougher day, so if you're
- 1:44:32green,
- 1:44:34not too shabby.
- 1:44:36There we go.
- 1:44:38Everybody's green.
- 1:44:39I'm green on the accounts that matter. I
- 1:44:41know we blew that account. Who cares?
- 1:44:46We're up 300 on this. We passed one
- 1:44:48eval.
- 1:44:49Passed this eval.
- 1:44:51Oop. That one.
- 1:44:53We passed this eval.
- 1:44:55We hit profit target on the Lucid for
- 1:44:571500.
- 1:44:59So, overall,
- 1:45:01chill day.
- 1:45:03Chill day.
- 1:45:09All right, I think I'm going to stop. I
- 1:45:11I really I only have one account to
- 1:45:13trade and it's this
- 1:45:15new 25k static, but
- 1:45:19it's not really
- 1:45:21the
- 1:45:22the conditions I'd want to really trade
- 1:45:24it in.
- 1:45:25So,
- 1:45:27I think
- 1:45:29I'm going to call it a day.
- 1:45:31So, I'll catch you guys
- 1:45:33tomorrow.
- 1:45:35Hopefully tomorrow Well, shh.
- 1:45:37What Trump said though tomorrow,
- 1:45:40I don't know what's going to happen
- 1:45:41tomorrow. But, hopefully there's a good
- 1:45:44move. I think I'll probably pay
- 1:45:45attention to
- 1:45:48Asia session
- 1:45:49tomorrow night.
- 1:45:51Cuz he said Tuesday 8:00 p.m. Eastern.
- 1:45:54Well, what do you know? Right when Tokyo
- 1:45:57and Asia starts opening.
- 1:46:01That might be juicy.
- 1:46:05Maybe we could
- 1:46:06trade some gold
- 1:46:08and try and come up.
- 1:46:12All right, peace.
