  1. 1:13All right.
  2. 2:50So, we're just going to wait. We're
  3. 2:52going to post up and wait for market
  4. 2:54open.
  5. 3:57Dude, we're going to try and see if I
  6. 3:58can bring this [ __ ] back.
  7. 4:00I had $50 of drawdown.
  8. 4:04Now, we got 140.
  9. 4:07We're going to try and
  10. 4:09I find this account sitting here for
  11. 4:10like a month now just like not doing
  12. 4:12anything.
  13. 4:15We're going to see if I can
  14. 4:18bring it out of the grave. I've done it
  15. 4:19before.
  16. 4:21You just got to be careful.
  17. 4:24For this one, I got to get a I got to
  18. 4:26get a pad on this one this week.
  19. 4:29For at least 2,000. So, we're going to
  20. 4:31try and not
  21. 4:33mess this one up.
  22. 4:52Currently
  23. 4:54in a short
  24. 4:56on an Evo. Let me show you.
  25. 5:03I've been holding this all morning.
  26. 5:08Since we're up here.
  27. 5:12But, it came back up. It was looking
  28. 5:13good for a second, but it came back up.
  29. 5:16Unfortunately.
  30. 5:21I was looking to see if we would
  31. 5:26take these lows.
  32. 5:31It's probably going to hit my break even
  33. 5:32though, but it's all right.
  34. 6:21I am kind of anticipating that we're
  35. 6:22going to just like
  36. 6:24potentially
  37. 6:27have a range here today.
  38. 6:32Unless
  39. 6:34something happens, but
  40. 6:39it does look like we could potentially
  41. 6:40just
  42. 6:44stay in this area.
  43. 10:23>> Uh I haven't I haven't said anything.
  44. 10:26I'm just chilling.
  45. 10:32Yeah, I'm just waiting. I started the
  46. 10:34stream a little early today.
  47. 10:37I try I'm currently uh let me show you
  48. 10:40guys. Hold on.
  49. 10:45I'm in this trade right now on this
  50. 10:47eval.
  51. 10:51Let me see if it's going to pull up.
  52. 10:52Yep, right here.
  53. 10:57I'm just holding it.
  54. 11:00Trying to basically get towards these
  55. 11:02lows.
  56. 11:04What I was thinking is
  57. 11:06we are at like uh
  58. 11:09a higher time frame decision point for
  59. 11:12me whether we're going to start
  60. 11:14accepting higher prices and uh pushing
  61. 11:17up
  62. 11:18or if we're going to turn around on a
  63. 11:19higher time frame.
  64. 11:21At least for the beginning of the week
  65. 11:22we'd be turning around in my opinion up
  66. 11:25here.
  67. 11:26That's what this big ass
  68. 11:28zone is.
  69. 11:29And so
  70. 11:30when I woke up this morning
  71. 11:33we were consolidating and I saw us do
  72. 11:34this fake push up.
  73. 11:36And the idea is that we would come lower
  74. 11:39and potentially target
  75. 11:41London lows. The only problem though is
  76. 11:43that
  77. 11:44today
  78. 11:46we're kind of in like uh
  79. 11:50like there's a pretty good chance today
  80. 11:52that we would actually
  81. 11:54potentially consolidate. Now it won't I
  82. 11:57don't think it'll be like a tight
  83. 11:58consolidation, but maybe like a larger
  84. 12:01range.
  85. 12:02So I got to be careful.
  86. 12:04And especially if we
  87. 12:07are struggling to break past this low.
  88. 12:09Like this is the second time that we're
  89. 12:10trying to do it.
  90. 12:14It may be kind of nasty today, but
  91. 12:17hopefully not. Hopefully we get a clean
  92. 12:18move.
  93. 12:21But I'm not going to sit here
  94. 12:23and try and anticipate it.
  95. 12:28But yeah, so just so you know, basically
  96. 12:31above here above 24,400
  97. 12:3524,460
  98. 12:39maybe 70.
  99. 12:41If we start accepting above these this
  100. 12:43price, then I'm expecting us to
  101. 12:45continue higher throughout the week, but
  102. 12:48if this high holds for the day
  103. 12:52at least for the morning session, then
  104. 12:53I'm looking for us to
  105. 12:55potentially come to London lows, which
  106. 12:58is the first target. And then if we
  107. 13:00continue with
  108. 13:01sustained selling pressure, then
  109. 13:04I'll be looking for us to come
  110. 13:06at least to these lows here.
  111. 13:11With
  112. 13:13potentially down here, but my eyes are
  113. 13:16on these lows.
  114. 13:20So we'll see what happens. We'll
  115. 13:22um
  116. 13:25we'll be a little careful. I'm trying to
  117. 13:27bring it bring this account back.
  118. 13:29So I took a
  119. 13:30>> [laughter]
  120. 13:32>> This account had $50 of drawdown in it.
  121. 13:35And I went in like one micro and then I
  122. 13:37kept adding micros trying to
  123. 13:40get this move down to
  124. 13:43I think I was in like five micros at one
  125. 13:45point on this account.
  126. 13:47I was trying to get it to like uh
  127. 13:50$600 balance again.
  128. 13:53But it came back
  129. 13:55and it tagged me out for like a $80 win.
  130. 13:57So we're going to just try again some
  131. 14:00other time.
  132. 14:02See if we can bring it back. There's
  133. 14:04been one time
  134. 14:06there's been one time where I took
  135. 14:09basically a failed like a blown account
  136. 14:12had $60 of drawdown in it.
  137. 14:16And I just would pyramid into positions.
  138. 14:19And I got it back to like 2500. So
  139. 14:23I'm going to try and do it again, but
  140. 14:26chances are we're going to blow it, but
  141. 14:28might as well just try.
  142. 14:30Still there. Why not just
  143. 14:33try and pyramid into something. It's
  144. 14:34probably better if I pyramid into gold
  145. 14:36though.
  146. 14:43Am I using volume profile? Um
  147. 14:46On another chart I do have volume
  148. 14:48profiles.
  149. 14:51Previous uh like daily volume profiles.
  150. 14:57But I don't really use them like that. I
  151. 14:58use volume profiles inside every candle.
  152. 15:02It's what these are.
  153. 15:12I mean it depends. Sometimes I'll use
  154. 15:13them, sometimes I'll use like a fixed
  155. 15:15range volume profile.
  156. 15:19It kind of just depends.
  157. 15:40Yeah, we're really struggling to get
  158. 15:42past this.
  159. 15:44It's not looking good.
  160. 15:49But it's an eval, so it's chill.
  161. 16:34My main focus right now though is
  162. 16:35getting this payout for this uh
  163. 16:40this funded account. So I can just start
  164. 16:43full porting evals.
  165. 16:49Because it's a new month.
  166. 16:51We need to build a little bit of a
  167. 16:52cushion of some
  168. 16:54payout profits.
  169. 16:55So we're not playing with my own money.
  170. 16:57We're playing with
  171. 16:59some house money.
  172. 17:21There's a lot of contracts sitting here
  173. 17:23at 450 331.
  174. 17:26That's on NQ.
  175. 17:33Or 250, my bad.
  176. 17:51What up, Joseph?
  177. 18:14What up, Rocket?
  178. 18:24I've been holding this uh I've been
  179. 18:26holding this trade like
  180. 18:29all pre-market. I got in when we were up
  181. 18:31here.
  182. 18:33I'm trying to get us to
  183. 18:35at least just take this low, but
  184. 18:38this is a eval.
  185. 18:57So I'm hoping that at least market open
  186. 18:59will like run down real quick and grab
  187. 19:01it before it starts to
  188. 19:03[ __ ] around and chop.
  189. 19:23But we've been struggling to break past
  190. 19:25it. We failed right here.
  191. 19:27We stalled out right here. So we'll see
  192. 19:28if we can actually get the push past it
  193. 19:30right now.
  194. 19:39Order filled.
  195. 19:43All right.
  196. 19:45>> [clears throat]
  197. 19:52>> Oh, it's
  198. 19:54>> Oh, that's [ __ ] whack. I need 70 more
  199. 19:56bucks on this.
  200. 20:09All right, so now what I'm watching for
  201. 20:10the open is I'm going to see if we're
  202. 20:12going to continue down to London lows.
  203. 20:16Or if we're just going to snap back up
  204. 20:17into this.
  205. 20:35That's nasty.
  206. 20:39That's nasty.
  207. 20:44Dude, thank god I put my TP right there.
  208. 20:46Whew.
  209. 21:04But today I'm going to be a little
  210. 21:05careful about uh
  211. 21:08some potential
  212. 21:10whiplash and
  213. 21:12some potential chop.
  214. 21:40Thanks, Jeremy.
  215. 21:45Should we try and get this up? Dude, the
  216. 21:46problem is though is like if I try and
  217. 21:48bring this account back
  218. 21:50>> [laughter]
  219. 21:51>> there's it's a consistency funded
  220. 21:53account.
  221. 21:59Let me see if I can Let me see if I can
  222. 22:00snag a little bit.
  223. 22:02Snag a little bit of cash for this one.
  224. 22:07You know what? We should just [ __ ]
  225. 22:09blow this account.
  226. 22:19Here, I'm going to just add to this if
  227. 22:21it starts coming down.
  228. 22:25I just need to This thing's just like
  229. 22:27sitting here.
  230. 22:30Order filled.
  231. 22:36Should I just go one mini and try and
  232. 22:42This account has $100 of drawdown.
  233. 22:47Here, I'm just going to blow this real
  234. 22:48quick. One second.
  235. 22:48>> Order filled.
  236. 23:10Ooh, scale some out. Scale some out.
  237. 23:12>> Order filled.
  238. 23:14Damn, we're going to make a comeback
  239. 23:16on this account. Let's just hold this.
  240. 23:20Let's just target uh London lows.
  241. 23:29The comeback of all comebacks. That'd be
  242. 23:31hilarious. I've done it once.
  243. 23:35This account's probably going to get
  244. 23:36blown though because I can't like I
  245. 23:39can't get a windfall day on this account
  246. 23:41cuz it'll just I'll never be able to get
  247. 23:43a payout on it.
  248. 23:43>> Order filled.
  249. 23:46It's all right. We got $245 of drawdown
  250. 23:48now.
  251. 23:51We started this uh
  252. 23:53We started this morning with $50 of
  253. 23:55drawdown.
  254. 23:58Not bad.
  255. 24:01We'll slowly bring that one back.
  256. 24:08But it looks like we're probably going
  257. 24:10to start pushing up.
  258. 24:17But on um
  259. 24:20I'm watching these uh gamma levels right
  260. 24:23now.
  261. 24:24Here and here.
  262. 24:27Speaking of that, let me fix this.
  263. 24:39So, I'm watching
  264. 24:41these two gamma levels which are on QQQ.
  265. 24:43It's uh 589 and 590.
  266. 24:49Yeah. Oh, my bad.
  267. 24:51These ones.
  268. 24:55The The more important one though,
  269. 24:56honestly, is is this one sitting at 590.
  270. 25:05But this is This is a uh
  271. 25:09This isn't the type of call wall that
  272. 25:11you would just like
  273. 25:13try and fade when it touches this
  274. 25:15because this has the
  275. 25:19the most
  276. 25:21It has It's the second biggest absolute
  277. 25:23GEX level and it also has uh net call
  278. 25:25open interest and call open interest.
  279. 25:28So, this is more of like a
  280. 25:31decision. If we continue above this
  281. 25:33though, then we'll probably actually
  282. 25:35move up, but
  283. 25:37there's a chance that we can come up
  284. 25:38here and then just like kind of pin
  285. 25:42or
  286. 25:43wait for a reaction.
  287. 25:47Hold on. I need to make 70 bucks on
  288. 25:49this. You go.
  289. 26:18>> [snorts]
  290. 26:25>> Hmm.
  291. 26:28That's a nasty snapback.
  292. 26:33How big is that?
  293. 26:3770 points.
  294. 26:47Jeez.
  295. 26:58Let me try and make 70 bucks real quick.
  296. 27:01Order filled.
  297. 27:03Oop.
  298. 27:05Wait, I'm making too much.
  299. 27:08Wait.
  300. 27:10Wait.
  301. 27:11Oh, [ __ ]
  302. 27:14TP.
  303. 27:17Order filled.
  304. 27:19All right, we got it.
  305. 27:34All right, hold on.
  306. 27:47I'm going to go short on the funded
  307. 27:50account.
  308. 27:51But I'm going to have a pretty tight
  309. 27:54stop loss. I'm going to
  310. 28:00I'm going to risk the profits right here
  311. 28:03that I have this morning.
  312. 28:06Ooh, we're about to get stopped out of
  313. 28:07that.
  314. 28:10We're going to wait.
  315. 28:46Dude, that 15-minute candle is nasty.
  316. 28:52Whew.
  317. 29:27Should we try and make a comeback on
  318. 29:28this account still?
  319. 29:32Uh
  320. 29:37Yeah, I just I don't want us to just
  321. 29:39like
  322. 29:40chop right here.
  323. 29:45I don't know. I think we can make a
  324. 29:46comeback.
  325. 30:13Order filled.
  326. 30:15All right, let's see if we could make
  327. 30:16some more profit on this account. Let's
  328. 30:18risk uh
  329. 30:21Let's risk our profits here.
  330. 30:32Ooh, break even.
  331. 30:33Ooh, scale some out.
  332. 30:34>> Order filled. Order filled.
  333. 30:38And then I'm going to see if I could if
  334. 30:39this will drop
  335. 30:44down here.
  336. 30:56Order filled. All right.
  337. 31:00All right, now this account's up to 330.
  338. 31:24The comeback is looking like there
  339. 31:26there's actually some potential here.
  340. 31:37Hmm.
  341. 31:41I just got to be I got to be careful cuz
  342. 31:43it has the consistency rule on it.
  343. 31:46And plus
  344. 31:48I need to get the balance to like
  345. 31:51I don't know.
  346. 31:532,500 or something
  347. 31:55to even be able to pull a payout on this
  348. 31:57account.
  349. 31:58But we may be able to bring it back. We
  350. 32:01may be able to bring it back.
  351. 32:14I'm just going to wait for a second
  352. 32:16though.
  353. 32:49Should we
  354. 32:52try and fade this range?
  355. 33:05This looks gross.
  356. 33:29The odds you take a trade today? Well,
  357. 33:31if you're actually going to be not
  358. 33:33trying to force something, probably kind
  359. 33:35of low.
  360. 33:39Just because
  361. 33:43I mean, look at this.
  362. 33:53I don't know. I'm I might try and force
  363. 33:55something.
  364. 33:56I'm kind of tempted to try and short it
  365. 33:57right here.
  366. 34:05Dude, the 15 minute
  367. 34:07went all the way down, was down here
  368. 34:09with a nasty wick, and it came all the
  369. 34:11way back up.
  370. 34:36Um it says that
  371. 34:38there's a Trump White House egg roll for
  372. 34:41Easter, so
  373. 34:43I don't know if um
  374. 34:47if that'll necessarily do something, but
  375. 34:49you know what? You never know.
  376. 34:52Maybe the egg roll he'll say something
  377. 34:54crazy.
  378. 35:00Oh, maybe.
  379. 35:02Order filled.
  380. 35:03>> to try and go short right here.
  381. 35:11Try and fade this range, but if we start
  382. 35:14popping up, then
  383. 35:16it is what it is.
  384. 35:39Order filled.
  385. 35:45Cooked.
  386. 36:15I think I'm going to
  387. 36:16I think I'm just going to wait for us to
  388. 36:17get out of here.
  389. 36:49I'm going to be watching when we start
  390. 36:50getting into this area though.
  391. 37:11No, I don't trade options.
  392. 37:14Just futures.
  393. 37:24Now, if there were some notable and
  394. 37:26trustworthy options prop firms, that
  395. 37:29could be interesting.
  396. 37:44I think there's probably some out there,
  397. 37:45but they're probably shady to be honest.
  398. 37:48But probably wouldn't want to
  399. 37:51mess around with them.
  400. 38:08I just feel like with prop firms for
  401. 38:10futures
  402. 38:13just can't be beat, dude. Like the
  403. 38:16the ROI potential is just
  404. 38:19too good.
  405. 38:43Yeah, for sure for leverage.
  406. 39:14If I'm able to bring this account back,
  407. 39:15I'll be pretty proud about that.
  408. 39:21From a $50 drawdown. Let's go. We got
  409. 39:24it.
  410. 41:14>> Yeah, for sure.
  411. 41:17Unfortunately, we're not really doing
  412. 41:19much right now, but
  413. 41:22Yeah, I always have it up.
  414. 41:25Cuz I use it.
  415. 41:29It's actually on multiple screens right
  416. 41:31now. You guys just can't really see it.
  417. 41:33You just see
  418. 41:34one screen.
  419. 41:51The good news is that we hit profit
  420. 41:53target on our lucid account. So, we're
  421. 41:56just
  422. 42:00trying to see if
  423. 42:01we're going to do anything or if we're
  424. 42:03just going to end up
  425. 42:05like
  426. 42:08snapping back and forth this morning.
  427. 42:22We just took pre-market highs and then
  428. 42:23now we're in like positive gamma
  429. 42:25territory, so
  430. 42:27oops.
  431. 42:36Uh this isn't a volume profile. This is
  432. 42:37the DOM.
  433. 42:39I just have it inside the candles.
  434. 44:47Uh I [ __ ] up my profits on this
  435. 44:49account. I was up 200.
  436. 44:51Now I'm down 200.
  437. 44:58You know what a smart trader does is
  438. 44:59they
  439. 45:00We just got to size up and make it back.
  440. 45:04We just got to uh triple our size.
  441. 45:10And then we'll make it back three times
  442. 45:11as fast.
  443. 45:38I think we're going to come up here.
  444. 47:57What Justin, did you try to short it up
  445. 47:58up here?
  446. 48:07I'm I'm watching to see if we're about
  447. 48:09or if we're just like doing a slow grind
  448. 48:11up here to this area.
  449. 48:47Dude, the overnight session had some
  450. 48:48nice moves.
  451. 48:53Especially during Asia.
  452. 48:57Jeez.
  453. 49:15Look at the overnight moves and then
  454. 49:19the [ __ ] we're doing right now.
  455. 49:27No, I've never used WeBull before.
  456. 50:26>> Oh, that was nasty. Oh, that was nasty.
  457. 50:34Jeez.
  458. 51:02So, this area is an important area
  459. 51:06that I'm watching
  460. 51:08to see what it does.
  461. 51:13Damn, that
  462. 51:15that 4-hour open was disgusting.
  463. 51:21How big was that wick?
  464. 51:2440 points?
  465. 52:13Oh, they added footprints and TPO to
  466. 52:14WeBull. I've never really used WeBull,
  467. 52:16nor have I had a reason to do do it use
  468. 52:19it because I don't
  469. 52:23I don't trade options.
  470. 53:40I want to see how this 5 minutes going
  471. 53:42to close.
  472. 53:44Looks pretty nasty though.
  473. 53:58Sorry.
  474. 54:04This is the eval.
  475. 54:10That was a
  476. 54:13That was a [ __ ] dick move. My bad. I
  477. 54:15was [ __ ] just looking at this. I just
  478. 54:17wanted to try it on the eval.
  479. 54:22I'm trying to go for the pass on this
  480. 54:24single trade.
  481. 54:26But I didn't uh I didn't say anything. I
  482. 54:28didn't
  483. 54:31You caught me. My bad.
  484. 54:46I was thinking about taking it on my
  485. 54:47funded account, but I wanted to see the
  486. 54:495-minute close first, but
  487. 54:52it started moving pretty quickly.
  488. 54:57Actually, I need to extend this just in
  489. 54:59case.
  490. 55:00All right.
  491. 55:03So, if
  492. 55:06I'm actually going to trail the stop.
  493. 55:13I'm going to try and pass this account
  494. 55:15this trade because there's it's a alpha
  495. 55:18zero.
  496. 55:21What a nasty drop, dude. I should have
  497. 55:23taken that on my [ __ ] funded account.
  498. 55:28Well, that's
  499. 55:30I passed that account. Let's watch this
  500. 55:31now.
  501. 55:39I'm actually going to if this flips if
  502. 55:41this flips, I'm going to get into this
  503. 55:45with 10 micros.
  504. 55:47See if the pressure's going to continue
  505. 55:49to the downside and we would be
  506. 55:50targeting London lows.
  507. 55:54If I lose this trade though, like if it
  508. 55:56snaps down and then comes back up really
  509. 55:58quick,
  510. 55:59I'mma move it to break even the moment
  511. 56:01we get past this uh
  512. 56:03previous 5-minute low.
  513. 56:06But if I end up if it like hits my limit
  514. 56:09and then pops back up,
  515. 56:11then
  516. 56:13I'mma just have to take the L on it.
  517. 56:16Order filled.
  518. 56:21See if you can get a push down past
  519. 56:23these orders.
  520. 56:33I'mma have to
  521. 56:50All right. I'm going to move it to break
  522. 56:52even. I'd like to see us just start to
  523. 56:54flush from here
  524. 56:56and not [ __ ] around.
  525. 57:01But if we hit break even, it is what it
  526. 57:02is, but we're going for like a $1,500
  527. 57:04TP.
  528. 57:13Order filled.
  529. 57:14Boo.
  530. 57:25Uh my [ __ ] funded account.
  531. 57:39Dude, what a nasty move off of this
  532. 57:42area up here.
  533. 57:45It happened so quickly.
  534. 57:51At least I caught it on that eval and I
  535. 57:53passed that eval, but [ __ ] dude, like
  536. 58:08The only thing is like the first time we
  537. 58:10tried to push down, we had sellers get
  538. 58:12absorbed right here, so I'm worried that
  539. 58:15trying to follow shorts right here, what
  540. 58:17would end up happening is we just start
  541. 58:18whiplashing. This is a large range now.
  542. 58:23Like if we were to come back up to the
  543. 58:24POC of the previous 5 minutes, like
  544. 58:28over 50 points, where would you put your
  545. 58:30stop?
  546. 58:35So, I was trying to go with this like
  547. 58:37momentum move, hoping that we would just
  548. 58:40begin to flush, basically.
  549. 58:43Take these orders out, get past this
  550. 58:44area, and then
  551. 58:47start coming down here.
  552. 58:51But it just kind of started to stall, so
  553. 58:54it took us out break even.
  554. 59:03Support and resistance and supply and
  555. 59:05demand
  556. 59:07using volume.
  557. 59:09No, I don't do that.
  558. 59:24So, we're down 200 on this account.
  559. 59:26We're up we passed one account. We hit
  560. 59:29profit target on another account.
  561. 59:35I want to see if there's an opportunity
  562. 59:36for me to get back into the green
  563. 59:40on this funded account so I can get a
  564. 59:41winning day. Cuz I think
  565. 59:45I think I only have
  566. 59:49I only have two winning days
  567. 59:50on this account.
  568. 59:53So I need three.
  569. 59:55So if I want to get a payout this week,
  570. 59:57I got to
  571. 1:00:01I got to squeeze something out.
  572. 1:00:07We just got to be careful about
  573. 1:00:13the big ass range right here.
  574. 1:00:35How big was this?
  575. 1:00:38Jeez.
  576. 1:00:43Well, at least we have speed picking up.
  577. 1:00:48Cuz when we were like slowly coming up
  578. 1:00:50here, it was kind of nasty.
  579. 1:00:54See if it's going to
  580. 1:00:56continue lower if we're going to just
  581. 1:01:00[ __ ] around or
  582. 1:01:16Damn, it looks so
  583. 1:01:19This hourly looks crazy.
  584. 1:01:46You know what though? Not a bad morning
  585. 1:01:48so far. I know we kind of [ __ ] up the
  586. 1:01:50profits on this, but
  587. 1:01:54we're making a little comeback on this
  588. 1:01:56account. It's been dead for like a
  589. 1:01:57month. It's just been sitting here.
  590. 1:02:00Now we got another funded account.
  591. 1:02:02And one that's halfway done.
  592. 1:02:08Dude, did you guys see what Trump was
  593. 1:02:09tweeting on Truth Social about tomorrow?
  594. 1:02:13Said something about tomorrow.
  595. 1:02:19I like let me read it to you guys.
  596. 1:02:21He said some crazy [ __ ] dude. Yeah, he
  597. 1:02:24said some crazy [ __ ] Let me
  598. 1:02:26Let me look.
  599. 1:02:30Tomorrow might be hectic.
  600. 1:02:42Where's it at?
  601. 1:02:49He said
  602. 1:02:52He said Tuesday will be power plant day
  603. 1:02:54and bridge day all wrapped up in one in
  604. 1:02:57Iran. There will be nothing like it.
  605. 1:02:59Open the [ __ ] straight, you crazy
  606. 1:03:01bastards, or you'll be in living hell.
  607. 1:03:03Just watch. Praise be to Allah.
  608. 1:03:06Sheesh.
  609. 1:03:08Sheesh. And then he said Tuesday, 8:00
  610. 1:03:11p.m. Eastern time.
  611. 1:03:18Uh dude.
  612. 1:03:27Yeah.
  613. 1:03:29Dude, I feel It's crazy. Like imagine
  614. 1:03:31starting to learn how to trade in these
  615. 1:03:33conditions.
  616. 1:03:36Hey, you know what though? If you're
  617. 1:03:37learning how to trade in these
  618. 1:03:37conditions
  619. 1:03:40when later down the road when things get
  620. 1:03:42a little bit more chill
  621. 1:03:45probably be pretty good.
  622. 1:03:48It's pretty tough right now.
  623. 1:03:52At least for me.
  624. 1:03:56Ever since March
  625. 1:03:58it's just been kind of rough.
  626. 1:04:01New York's been chopping.
  627. 1:04:07And then we have like just random tweets
  628. 1:04:09that just like [ __ ] push the market
  629. 1:04:11around.
  630. 1:04:14It's kind of difficult to read for me.
  631. 1:04:23He never follows through with anything,
  632. 1:04:24Taco.
  633. 1:04:28Yeah, so I like yesterday I had a bunch
  634. 1:04:30of stuff I had to do, but I mean, dude,
  635. 1:04:33like look at Okay, look at New York,
  636. 1:04:36okay?
  637. 1:04:38Then look at the overnights. Like why
  638. 1:04:39can't
  639. 1:04:41Do I have to just start only trading
  640. 1:04:44Asia?
  641. 1:04:47I usually trade gold.
  642. 1:04:51Oh, Trump always chickens out, Taco.
  643. 1:04:59Like this was This is nice. I should
  644. 1:05:01have been trading this last night. This
  645. 1:05:02is actually These are large moves.
  646. 1:05:07129 points.
  647. 1:05:11200 points.
  648. 1:05:14>> [snorts]
  649. 1:05:15>> What was I doing?
  650. 1:05:18Now I'm over here trading this [ __ ]
  651. 1:05:23Yeah, Asia's the new meta for sure.
  652. 1:05:29Oh, look at gold. That's disgusting.
  653. 1:05:33That's disgusting.
  654. 1:05:37Damn, gold had a pretty big move.
  655. 1:05:42Jeez.
  656. 1:05:46Yeah, like nowadays
  657. 1:05:48I'm just like anticipating
  658. 1:05:53New York to just like chop every morning
  659. 1:05:56until proven otherwise. Guilty until
  660. 1:05:58proven
  661. 1:06:00that it's not going to chop.
  662. 1:06:03Or at least range.
  663. 1:06:09Uh I usually use 50K account sizes.
  664. 1:06:1550Ks are chill for me.
  665. 1:06:21Cuz like for the bigger accounts, I
  666. 1:06:22don't really
  667. 1:06:24I don't really use the
  668. 1:06:26more contracts anyways, so
  669. 1:06:31Although who knows? Maybe Maybe I'll
  670. 1:06:32start uh using bigger accounts, but
  671. 1:06:35it's just easier to pass 50Ks.
  672. 1:06:39And like at the end of the day, like
  673. 1:06:43it's not like I'm over here trading five
  674. 1:06:44minis or like
  675. 1:06:47>> [snorts]
  676. 1:06:47>> 10 minis on um
  677. 1:06:50my funded accounts anyway, so
  678. 1:06:54Like even when I have a bigger balance
  679. 1:06:57I'm still not really doing that.
  680. 1:07:02But what I do do is like let's say I get
  681. 1:07:05this balance up to like 5K, 6K again,
  682. 1:07:07cuz it was at It was at like eight grand
  683. 1:07:10last week.
  684. 1:07:11And then I took a payout.
  685. 1:07:13So it went down to four grand and then
  686. 1:07:15now we're down a little bit, but
  687. 1:07:18um
  688. 1:07:19when I build the balance in it, I will
  689. 1:07:21use like one or two minis.
  690. 1:07:26But for now
  691. 1:07:2810 micros. I would usually Right now I'm
  692. 1:07:30using anywhere from like
  693. 1:07:32five to 10 micros probably.
  694. 1:07:35Unless I'm pyramiding into a winning
  695. 1:07:36position, then I'll add whatever.
  696. 1:07:57Should we continue to try and bring this
  697. 1:07:59account back a little bit?
  698. 1:08:03Trading chop.
  699. 1:08:09We six times the balance today.
  700. 1:08:12We made 600% on our balance today.
  701. 1:08:17500 or whatever.
  702. 1:08:22See if we can turn 50 bucks to a
  703. 1:08:23thousand.
  704. 1:08:46Yeah, the ratio between drawdown and
  705. 1:08:48profit target begins to
  706. 1:08:51it becomes larger
  707. 1:08:53with the bigger accounts.
  708. 1:09:00And plus like a lot of firms have payout
  709. 1:09:03caps, so
  710. 1:09:06if you're going to get a bigger account,
  711. 1:09:08you should
  712. 1:09:09I would do I would do a bigger account
  713. 1:09:11that has either a big payout cap or no
  714. 1:09:13payout cap. Otherwise, like
  715. 1:09:16what's the point?
  716. 1:09:22Like let's say you get a 150K account
  717. 1:09:26but their payout cap is like
  718. 1:09:283 grand or something.
  719. 1:09:32Well, what's the point of having all the
  720. 1:09:34extra contracts if you can only take out
  721. 1:09:373 grand?
  722. 1:09:47Because with the way that we're moving
  723. 1:09:48recently in like these I mean 100 point
  724. 1:09:50moves are happening all over the place.
  725. 1:09:52We I mean
  726. 1:09:54I mean we're just doing one right now.
  727. 1:09:57And we did one just a second ago.
  728. 1:09:59So like with two minis
  729. 1:10:03you can
  730. 1:10:04make whatever.
  731. 1:10:05You you can make a good amount of money
  732. 1:10:07with two minis.
  733. 1:11:16Dude, please NQ. Just give me a chance.
  734. 1:11:20Give me a chance to make some money
  735. 1:11:21back.
  736. 1:11:34I just need a good opportunity to try
  737. 1:11:36and make 50 point or try and hit a 50
  738. 1:11:38point TP.
  739. 1:11:40With five micros.
  740. 1:11:43That's it.
  741. 1:11:52But if I take another trade on this
  742. 1:11:53account and I lose, I'll probably be
  743. 1:11:55down like 500 and then I'm just going to
  744. 1:11:57have to stop.
  745. 1:12:04And then we're going to make it
  746. 1:12:05difficult to pull a payout this week,
  747. 1:12:07which is going to be [ __ ] whack, but
  748. 1:12:09whatever.
  749. 1:13:04I'm trying to see if we're going to
  750. 1:13:07come back up to this area again.
  751. 1:13:11Or if we're going to just roll over back
  752. 1:13:13into
  753. 1:13:16just do another one of these.
  754. 1:13:23But we're in like a
  755. 1:13:27We're in like a balance right now, so
  756. 1:13:29it's kind of
  757. 1:13:37not ideal.
  758. 1:13:38Honestly.
  759. 1:14:20Also, if you guys are
  760. 1:14:24quick plug quick plug.
  761. 1:14:27If you guys are using uh
  762. 1:14:30Alpha Futures
  763. 1:14:32where you can pass in one day like I did
  764. 1:14:34today.
  765. 1:14:36It's 25% off last day
  766. 1:14:39using code Thrax.
  767. 1:14:41T H R A X X.
  768. 1:14:46You can pass them in one day.
  769. 1:14:51Just had to do my quick
  770. 1:15:20[snorts]
  771. 1:17:35plug in decent move during lunch or the
  772. 1:17:38PM session, but right now we're kind of
  773. 1:17:39just bullshitting around.
  774. 1:17:43Uh if you hit a 50k balance
  775. 1:17:46um
  776. 1:17:50I think the most I don't know. I think
  777. 1:17:52the most you can take in payouts is like
  778. 1:17:5450k from an account. I don't really know
  779. 1:17:56to be honest.
  780. 1:17:59My other funded account I made 40k
  781. 1:18:01profits on it or a little over 40k.
  782. 1:18:06And I pulled out most of it except for
  783. 1:18:08like 7 grand of it.
  784. 1:18:12And then I blew it
  785. 1:18:14beginning of March.
  786. 1:18:29But I needed to get this payout from
  787. 1:18:31this account so that I start the month
  788. 1:18:33off in the green and then
  789. 1:18:36get some more funded accounts with
  790. 1:18:37Topstep.
  791. 1:18:39And then I'll probably if I have enough
  792. 1:18:41if I have like four or five fundeds,
  793. 1:18:42I'll probably try and just full port
  794. 1:18:43one.
  795. 1:18:46Just see if I can
  796. 1:18:47get up to a 10k balance real quick.
  797. 1:18:57Although this month
  798. 1:18:59I'm probably not going to gamble on CPI.
  799. 1:19:03I feel like it's going to be kind of
  800. 1:19:04nasty
  801. 1:19:05this one.
  802. 1:19:15I'm going to wait for this 15 minute
  803. 1:19:16candle to open and if nothing really
  804. 1:19:18happens or we don't start like moving
  805. 1:19:19around a little bit
  806. 1:19:21probably just have to call it and take
  807. 1:19:23our $200 L.
  808. 1:19:33Cuz there's I mean
  809. 1:19:37there's no point in trading this
  810. 1:19:39anymore.
  811. 1:19:40If it's going to just do this.
  812. 1:19:48If you make 5K profit and you withdraw
  813. 1:19:515K
  814. 1:19:54No, it would be at 50K and you can only
  815. 1:19:57withdraw
  816. 1:19:5850% of your profit. So, if you made 5K
  817. 1:20:01profit, you'd only be able to take a
  818. 1:20:03$2,500 payout.
  819. 1:20:06And then you'd have $2,500 left in your
  820. 1:20:08account.
  821. 1:20:10And if you lose that, then you blow the
  822. 1:20:12account.
  823. 1:22:50Order filled. Oh, that was a late entry.
  824. 1:22:53[ __ ] me.
  825. 1:22:57Oh, we're going to have to risk more
  826. 1:22:59than I thought.
  827. 1:23:01Nasty.
  828. 1:23:03I tried to get in when it started to
  829. 1:23:04flip, but I clicked it late.
  830. 1:23:10I kind of [ __ ] myself.
  831. 1:23:17So, when I lose this if I lose this
  832. 1:23:19trade right now, I'm just going to have
  833. 1:23:20to stop. That was uh
  834. 1:23:22[ __ ] bad.
  835. 1:23:40Damn, that was like terrible timing.
  836. 1:25:09Oh.
  837. 1:25:10It's gross.
  838. 1:26:50It's not looking good for me right now.
  839. 1:26:53We're not getting any type of follow
  840. 1:26:54through.
  841. 1:26:55And I bottom ticked.
  842. 1:26:58I bottom ticked that entry like a
  843. 1:26:59[ __ ] [ __ ]
  844. 1:27:18Yeah, we'll save ourselves a couple
  845. 1:27:19schmuckles.
  846. 1:27:22We'll move it to the top of the
  847. 1:27:235-minute.
  848. 1:27:27Cuz if it's going to fail to push down,
  849. 1:27:30we're probably going to come up to uh
  850. 1:27:35probably come up here.
  851. 1:27:41If we slam through these orders though,
  852. 1:27:43when you come into this area, I'm going
  853. 1:27:44to have to move it to break even. I just
  854. 1:27:46had like such a [ __ ] shitty entry.
  855. 1:28:15Yeah, Wave, it's probably a good idea to
  856. 1:28:17call it a day.
  857. 1:28:29I'm going to call it a day after this
  858. 1:28:30trade.
  859. 1:28:41Oh, [ __ ] No. No, I wasn't paying
  860. 1:28:44attention. [ __ ]
  861. 1:28:48[ __ ]
  862. 1:28:50I'm getting out of this [ __ ] dude. What
  863. 1:28:52the [ __ ] was that?
  864. 1:28:55It just took the orders and then
  865. 1:28:58Oh, [ __ ]
  866. 1:29:02Whatever, dude. [ __ ] this market.
  867. 1:29:14Oh, don't get don't edge me like that,
  868. 1:29:16please.
  869. 1:29:20Yo.
  870. 1:29:23Yo.
  871. 1:29:26No [ __ ] way. Wait, hold on.
  872. 1:29:30No, let's just leave it.
  873. 1:29:35Dude, no [ __ ] way.
  874. 1:29:44>> [snorts]
  875. 1:29:48>> Brother.
  876. 1:29:50Please, stop doing this.
  877. 1:29:54Order filled.
  878. 1:29:55>> All right.
  879. 1:29:56Wow.
  880. 1:30:00Damn.
  881. 1:30:02It's all right. We're over up 300.
  882. 1:30:06Dude, what a [ __ ] shitty ass trade.
  883. 1:30:08Oh my gosh.
  884. 1:30:17Honestly, I got so lucky that that
  885. 1:30:18played out for 50 points, dude. Like
  886. 1:30:28That is wild.
  887. 1:30:32Well.
  888. 1:30:35I'm going to uh lock out of this. I need
  889. 1:30:37the winning day on it. So, we'll just
  890. 1:30:39lock out of this account. We got pretty
  891. 1:30:41lucky on that. That was nasty. I was
  892. 1:30:43like so
  893. 1:30:45I guess I got kind of lucky because
  894. 1:30:47well, I definitely got lucky because we
  895. 1:30:49had these orders that were sitting right
  896. 1:30:51here.
  897. 1:30:52And I was worried that we would take the
  898. 1:30:54orders and then snap back up for a push
  899. 1:30:57higher.
  900. 1:31:00So, I was going to
  901. 1:31:02move my stop to break even.
  902. 1:31:07And then I didn't have it just happened
  903. 1:31:08way too fast. I I wasn't paying
  904. 1:31:10attention.
  905. 1:31:11It would have take if I moved it to
  906. 1:31:13break even though it would have taken me
  907. 1:31:14out of break even.
  908. 1:31:17And then it would have gone down to TP.
  909. 1:31:21Damn, we got lucky. It hit just barely
  910. 1:31:23hit TP, too. That was a
  911. 1:31:28That was a blessing.
  912. 1:31:30A terrible trade that just happened to
  913. 1:31:32work out.
  914. 1:31:34Just
  915. 1:31:35just by pure luck.
  916. 1:31:37[ __ ]
  917. 1:31:40Yeah, this
  918. 1:31:42This is gross, dude.
  919. 1:31:50Yeah, that TP Wait, hold on.
  920. 1:31:54Did we Did we just get like
  921. 1:31:58296?
  922. 1:32:01All right, TP was like right here.
  923. 1:32:03Yeah.
  924. 1:32:11Crazy.
  925. 1:32:17Same thing happened with the with the
  926. 1:32:19alpha trade, too.
  927. 1:32:21Dude, this is gross. What is Is there
  928. 1:32:23something happening right now?
  929. 1:32:30Oh, they're talking about the Okay, I
  930. 1:32:32see. I see. I see.
  931. 1:32:38Well, maybe we might have a massive move
  932. 1:32:40out of this
  933. 1:32:41balance.
  934. 1:32:53We'll see if we can
  935. 1:32:55Let's see Let's
  936. 1:32:56Should we trade this account? See if we
  937. 1:32:57can bring it back up.
  938. 1:32:59See if we can get to like a thousand
  939. 1:33:00bucks.
  940. 1:33:24I'm going to put a stop sell for 10
  941. 1:33:26micros.
  942. 1:33:30We'll try and scalp our way to uh
  943. 1:33:36to a thousand bucks from $50 account
  944. 1:33:39balance today. We'll try We'll go We'll
  945. 1:33:41try and do a $50 to $1,000 balance.
  946. 1:33:44Or
  947. 1:33:45blow the account.
  948. 1:33:48I don't really want this account
  949. 1:33:49anyways. It's a [ __ ]
  950. 1:33:52consistency account.
  951. 1:33:59But if we do bring it back,
  952. 1:34:02it would be pretty funny.
  953. 1:34:15Although with 10 micros, we have about
  954. 1:34:1780 ticks of available drawdown.
  955. 1:34:24Which is
  956. 1:34:26pretty sketchy, especially when you're
  957. 1:34:28trying to do a breakout of a
  958. 1:34:30of a range, the most likely
  959. 1:34:33result of this trade is it's going to
  960. 1:34:36tag me in and snap it back, but I'm down
  961. 1:34:37to try it anyways.
  962. 1:34:46We're actually Well, we have the
  963. 1:34:4715-minute bell to open. We should
  964. 1:34:48probably wait.
  965. 1:35:13If it doesn't tag us in on this 5-minute
  966. 1:35:15candle in 10 seconds, then we're just
  967. 1:35:16going to take it away.
  968. 1:35:25All right.
  969. 1:36:52Yeah, let's just give it a shot.
  970. 1:36:57Break the lows.
  971. 1:37:30Oh, didn't have a chance to add.
  972. 1:37:35Slowly scalp our way back.
  973. 1:37:42Let's get out down here at the lows.
  974. 1:37:44Actually, no. That's [ __ ] This is
  975. 1:37:46This account's going to die anyways.
  976. 1:37:47Let's
  977. 1:37:49Let's take it to uh
  978. 1:37:51206.
  979. 1:37:55See if we can come up a thousand bucks.
  980. 1:38:26Oh, it's going to
  981. 1:38:28It's going to take us out.
  982. 1:38:35So, all right. We'll capture 55 bucks.
  983. 1:38:43Or if we're if we're savage, let's add.
  984. 1:38:52Order filled.
  985. 1:38:55All right. Now, we'll capture 82 bucks.
  986. 1:39:00Oh, the comeback is real. Let's [ __ ]
  987. 1:39:03go.
  988. 1:39:05Let's go.
  989. 1:39:09Order filled.
  990. 1:39:10>> Dude.
  991. 1:39:13We 10 times our balance today.
  992. 1:39:20I should have held that. I was being a
  993. 1:39:21little [ __ ] honestly. I should have I
  994. 1:39:23should have held it.
  995. 1:39:28But, you know what? We could just do it
  996. 1:39:29again.
  997. 1:39:30We'll just do it again.
  998. 1:39:35Order filled.
  999. 1:39:38Go. Go. Go.
  1000. 1:39:43Order filled. All right, whatever.
  1001. 1:40:09Dude, that's funny. I realized P&L is
  1002. 1:40:11$545
  1003. 1:40:12and the balance is 596.
  1004. 1:40:15>> [laughter]
  1005. 1:40:19>> All right, look. Here's the strat. We're
  1006. 1:40:20going to switch over to NQ now. Now that
  1007. 1:40:22we got 600 bucks.
  1008. 1:40:27Look. We're going to do two minis.
  1009. 1:40:30We're going to do two minis. And
  1010. 1:40:32immediately, if it tags us in, move it
  1011. 1:40:34to break even.
  1012. 1:40:41Also, if you're watching me do this,
  1013. 1:40:43don't take any of these trades. I'm just
  1014. 1:40:45literally [ __ ] gambling on this
  1015. 1:40:47account to see if we could
  1016. 1:40:49get it to a thousand bucks or
  1017. 1:40:52lose it.
  1018. 1:41:01There's 60 ticks of drawdown.
  1019. 1:41:05Either we Order filled.
  1020. 1:41:06>> up or we blow the account right now.
  1021. 1:41:13No.
  1022. 1:41:18All of the hard work
  1023. 1:41:20gone.
  1024. 1:41:22It's all right.
  1025. 1:41:33All right, it's gone.
  1026. 1:41:34It's like one tick away from being
  1027. 1:41:36blown.
  1028. 1:41:38Order filled. Bum. Bum. Bum.
  1029. 1:41:42It's fine. There's no way like I could
  1030. 1:41:44bring that [ __ ] back anyways.
  1031. 1:41:46If it was honestly though, if this
  1032. 1:41:48wasn't a like a consistency account,
  1033. 1:41:53I would have
  1034. 1:41:54tried a little harder and not have tried
  1035. 1:41:56to full port that right now, but
  1036. 1:42:00at the end of the day, I really [ __ ]
  1037. 1:42:02up getting that consistency account
  1038. 1:42:04because
  1039. 1:42:05uh like they took it away.
  1040. 1:42:08Because like
  1041. 1:42:12how am I supposed to make it? It would
  1042. 1:42:14take me forever. It'd honestly just be a
  1043. 1:42:15waste of time.
  1044. 1:42:18It would take me forever to bring that
  1045. 1:42:20thing back.
  1046. 1:42:33Hey, we did we did a decent job though.
  1047. 1:42:34We started with 50 bucks.
  1048. 1:42:36It was basically blown anyways.
  1049. 1:42:39Got it. We got it back to 550 and then
  1050. 1:42:42it died.
  1051. 1:43:10I have another eval though. This is a
  1052. 1:43:11Fidus 50k static or 25k static. I might
  1053. 1:43:15not trade it today though cuz
  1054. 1:43:18we're approaching my my cutoff time
  1055. 1:43:21that I usually stop trading, which is
  1056. 1:43:238:00 a.m. Pacific Standard.
  1057. 1:44:00Well, how did you guys do today? Are you
  1058. 1:44:01guys green?
  1059. 1:44:03Are you red?
  1060. 1:44:06Talk to me. Tell me.
  1061. 1:44:09Oh and one? It's all right.
  1062. 1:44:14What about you, Rocket?
  1063. 1:44:16How are you doing today?
  1064. 1:44:21Green? That's good.
  1065. 1:44:23Green?
  1066. 1:44:25Fire.
  1067. 1:44:30A bit of a tougher day, so if you're
  1068. 1:44:32green,
  1069. 1:44:34not too shabby.
  1070. 1:44:36There we go.
  1071. 1:44:38Everybody's green.
  1072. 1:44:39I'm green on the accounts that matter. I
  1073. 1:44:41know we blew that account. Who cares?
  1074. 1:44:46We're up 300 on this. We passed one
  1075. 1:44:48eval.
  1076. 1:44:49Passed this eval.
  1077. 1:44:51Oop. That one.
  1078. 1:44:53We passed this eval.
  1079. 1:44:55We hit profit target on the Lucid for
  1080. 1:44:571500.
  1081. 1:44:59So, overall,
  1082. 1:45:01chill day.
  1083. 1:45:03Chill day.
  1084. 1:45:09All right, I think I'm going to stop. I
  1085. 1:45:11I really I only have one account to
  1086. 1:45:13trade and it's this
  1087. 1:45:15new 25k static, but
  1088. 1:45:19it's not really
  1089. 1:45:21the
  1090. 1:45:22the conditions I'd want to really trade
  1091. 1:45:24it in.
  1092. 1:45:25So,
  1093. 1:45:27I think
  1094. 1:45:29I'm going to call it a day.
  1095. 1:45:31So, I'll catch you guys
  1096. 1:45:33tomorrow.
  1097. 1:45:35Hopefully tomorrow Well, shh.
  1098. 1:45:37What Trump said though tomorrow,
  1099. 1:45:40I don't know what's going to happen
  1100. 1:45:41tomorrow. But, hopefully there's a good
  1101. 1:45:44move. I think I'll probably pay
  1102. 1:45:45attention to
  1103. 1:45:48Asia session
