- 0:06Yo.
- 0:35Yo, my bad. I didn't stream yesterday.
- 0:38I was uh
- 0:40slept in.
- 0:43But,
- 0:44here we are today.
- 0:46But, I did make
- 0:48most of my basically made all my money
- 0:50last night trading gold.
- 0:56Oh, my bad. You can't hear me. You can't
- 0:58hear me.
- 1:01I fixed it. Fixed it.
- 1:04I was just saying
- 1:05I didn't stream yesterday cuz I I woke
- 1:08up late.
- 1:11But, we're back. We're back.
- 1:14I made most of my money last night
- 1:15trading gold though, so
- 1:19we're
- 1:22potentially going to
- 1:24try and press it a little bit, but
- 1:27I am
- 1:30going to be trading on
- 1:35I have an account right now with deep
- 1:36charts on deep charts with a fittious.
- 1:40It's the uh
- 1:4225K static like the cash account.
- 1:46So, I'm going to try
- 1:49if I if I can get that to like 1,500
- 1:51today
- 1:53with a banger
- 1:56then we can actually get paid out.
- 1:58So, we're going to see if we can do
- 2:00that.
- 2:12And then tomorrow
- 2:14I'm going to be streaming with prop firm
- 2:16match on their YouTube, so
- 2:19I won't be in here.
- 2:21I won't be in the Discord or um
- 2:26my YouTube channel. I'll be on their
- 2:27YouTube channel for a bit.
- 2:33But, I'll send the link.
- 2:35Send the link.
- 2:46But, I'm hoping that we get a decent
- 2:48move today. Dude, I'm just like so
- 2:49suspicious at this point
- 2:52about every
- 2:54New York session open.
- 3:03Do I get paid for that?
- 3:11Christian, you can't hear me?
- 3:15Nah, I'll just go on there.
- 3:23But, they do give away accounts. So, if
- 3:25you ever want to
- 3:27Their live streams are pretty chill,
- 3:29although there's kind of a lot of
- 3:30talking going on.
- 3:36Espe- especially [clears throat] because
- 3:37I'm going to go on there. This is what
- 3:39happened last time I went on there.
- 3:41I go on prop firm match and then they're
- 3:43not use used to
- 3:46order flow. So, then I got to like
- 3:48explain order flow and stuff.
- 3:52Which when you're trying to trade
- 3:55it's probably not the best environment
- 3:57to try and teach somebody order flow
- 3:59when I'm trying to focus on trading.
- 4:02But,
- 4:07it's all right.
- 4:09So, basically just so you guys know what
- 4:11I'm looking at for today
- 4:15is we have been coming down overnight.
- 4:19There's a level on QQQ that I'm
- 4:22watching. It's 579 the strike price.
- 4:26I would like to see it hold. If it
- 4:27holds, then I would like to see us come
- 4:29back up.
- 4:31Take out these highs and then start
- 4:32making our way towards
- 4:34London highs.
- 4:36If it if it fails, it's it's around on
- 4:39on NQ. I'm pretty sure it's around like
- 4:4224,000, I think.
- 4:44If we start slamming through that
- 4:49then we might actually just like go a
- 4:52lot lower here today.
- 4:56We are in bearish structure.
- 4:58So,
- 5:03but I'm not trying to
- 5:06Look if this is 24,000, right?
- 5:11I'm not trying to necessarily anticipate
- 5:13us like dropping through here.
- 5:16It would
- 5:17I think it's more of an oppor- more of a
- 5:19chance we do one of these.
- 5:26But, we'll just have to see.
- 5:29But, to be completely honest, like
- 5:33I've been
- 5:35I've been just trading Asia gold
- 5:37for this for this account.
- 5:41I think I didn't stream yesterday, so
- 5:45just a recap while we wait for market
- 5:48open
- 5:49I think last time I streamed this
- 5:50account was like
- 5:54like a
- 5:55maybe a $5,500 balance.
- 5:59And then yesterday, I woke up late. I
- 6:01didn't stream, but I still traded.
- 6:05And I made like a thousand bucks on it.
- 6:07And then
- 6:09last [clears throat] night I took a long
- 6:10on gold when we were
- 6:13Here, let me show you.
- 6:16Oh, you guys couldn't even see the
- 6:17screen. [Â __Â ] my bad.
- 6:19But, last night on gold I took these
- 6:21these longs.
- 6:25Once I start once I saw it start pumping
- 6:27up, I just like piled in somewhere
- 6:29around right here.
- 6:31And then got out over here.
- 6:42So, just so you So, I'm going to say it
- 6:44again because
- 6:47you guys couldn't see the screen.
- 6:49Basically, I'm watching over here. I I
- 6:50would like us to not break past this. If
- 6:53we break past 24,000
- 6:57then I'm watching this area.
- 7:00If that makes sense.
- 7:04But, if we don't
- 7:06and we do one of these
- 7:08I'm watching up here.
- 7:11I'm watching up here.
- 7:23This is the close, so
- 7:27yeah.
- 7:28All right.
- 7:45And then also around 24,000
- 7:49is our ABR plus
- 7:51which I'm going to be paying attention
- 7:53to.
- 7:57Which is on this screen.
- 8:45We've been having a pretty tough week, I
- 8:47would I would say.
- 8:52Although, this would have been a good
- 8:53move
- 8:56yesterday if I would have woke up on
- 8:58time.
- 8:59We chopped up right here this day.
- 9:05This was okay.
- 9:06But, it was weird after this huge pump.
- 9:10Just a lot of consolidation off of the
- 9:12open.
- 9:15Which is annoying.
- 9:28But, on this account if I'm able to get
- 9:31like a winning day tomorrow
- 9:34I may be able
- 9:38to
- 9:44There's three trading days left in this
- 9:45month. I may be able to get a payout.
- 9:48I need
- 9:48>> [clears throat]
- 9:49>> two more days
- 9:53after today.
- 10:01>> And then if I take a payout on this
- 10:03account, it should put me at like
- 10:08I don't know, like 10 over 10 grand in
- 10:10payouts this month.
- 10:13Dude, we started off this month like
- 10:14down bad.
- 10:17When I blew all those accounts in the
- 10:18beginning of the month, I I thought I
- 10:20cooked this month, but we're we're
- 10:21making a comeback.
- 10:41Although I did I did spend a lot of
- 10:43money on evals this month. I spent like
- 10:45two grand,
- 10:47which is way more than normal.
- 10:49Evals and activations.
- 11:01So as of right now, I am net positive
- 11:03with the firms, but not by a lot, just
- 11:05by a few thousand dollars.
- 11:27Oh, that sucks.
- 11:29Having old accounts get rebuilt.
- 11:34It's annoying.
- 12:13What up, spaghetti?
- 12:20Yeah, this is ATAS.
- 12:22This is my footprint charts. This is a
- 12:245-minute
- 12:25and I'm looking at MNQ.
- 12:39Is gold about to pump right now?
- 12:44I wonder if it's about to pump come up
- 12:46into this area.
- 13:13Uh a delay on ATAS or a delay on like
- 13:17Project X?
- 13:32Uh I mean, it depends what data you
- 13:35have. My data is is good. My My data
- 13:38that I have with Rithmic
- 13:40through my live account,
- 13:43um it's
- 13:46usually better than
- 13:48the prop firms. Like sometimes I'll see
- 13:50the prop firms' data
- 13:52lagging.
- 13:54Oh, you're using
- 13:56prop firm data.
- 14:02Yeah, like there's times where I'll see
- 14:04the market moving on my
- 14:07my ATAS
- 14:10and then it's like
- 14:11I can see it lagging I can see like
- 14:14Project X or Topstep like lagging
- 14:16behind.
- 14:22Not all the time, but sometimes.
- 14:30Oh, that sucks.
- 15:24>> [snorts]
- 15:25>> Dude, I can't wait.
- 15:27I cannot wait for NQ
- 15:30to be back to normal during New York
- 15:32sessions where it actually goes
- 15:34somewhere
- 15:35in the AM session and not during lunch
- 15:38or pre-market.
- 15:48What is Panama?
- 15:54Uh
- 15:56>> [snorts]
- 16:04>> yeah, every market open so far this
- 16:06week, I've just been like suspicious
- 16:08about where it's going.
- 16:11I'm just being careful about getting
- 16:13caught in chop like
- 16:16and it's nasty chop, too. It's like
- 16:18100-point range
- 16:20whiplashing candles.
- 16:23You just get smoked.
- 16:33All right, we have the market opening up
- 16:34in like 5 seconds.
- 16:41>> [clears throat]
- 16:50[snorts]
- 17:49>> So it's better just to wait right now.
- 17:54I think uh
- 17:57What up, plat? I think
- 18:01I'm going to wait for this 5-minute
- 18:02candle to close.
- 18:06If we do start running lower,
- 18:09then I'm watching um
- 18:12down here,
- 18:14579 on QQQ and
- 18:19around 24,000 give or take 50 points.
- 19:22I'll show you right now, plat.
- 19:30See that?
- 19:32I'm watching this right here.
- 19:40Yeah, this is the heat map for ATAS.
- 19:51But I'm just waiting for now.
- 20:18We're going to see if it We're going to
- 20:19come down and take these lows, but
- 21:05I'll probably on this account, if I do
- 21:07trade it,
- 21:09I'm going to risk like 500 bucks.
- 21:15And if we lose, we'll switch over to our
- 21:1825K
- 21:20cash uh the 25K Fidus funded account.
- 22:06I'm seeing if we're going to
- 22:08push past this area.
- 22:16I really hope we don't just chop right
- 22:18here.
- 22:38What up, So- Soviet?
- 22:41Dude, how do I say your name? Is it Is
- 22:42it T-Rex?
- 22:44Soviet Rex?
- 22:46Sovi T-Rex?
- 23:15So, sellers are trying to push
- 23:17the
- 23:18I'm trying to I'm seeing if we're going
- 23:19to be successful in terms of like
- 23:21actually getting down here
- 23:24to make a new low.
- 23:27But we keep We're like kind of stalling
- 23:29in this area.
- 25:33All right.
- 25:36Are we going to chop?
- 25:39We're going to chop in this area, or we
- 25:41going to actually do something?
- 25:47I don't trust After this month, dude,
- 25:49I'm not trusting anything.
- 25:52I'm not trusting NQ's open.
- 26:26All right, here we go.
- 26:29Is he going to do it?
- 26:36All right, so we took the lows.
- 26:40We want to see if it's going to
- 26:41continue, though.
- 28:04Right now, I'm trying to see whether or
- 28:05not we're actually going to continue
- 28:06with some follow-through, or if we're
- 28:07just going to snap back up and stay in
- 28:09here.
- 29:17Oh, I'm starting to get a feeling that
- 29:19we're going to have a lame-ass market
- 29:21open.
- 29:23>> [sighs]
- 29:36>> Should we go look at gold?
- 29:40See what's gold what gold's doing.
- 29:46Yeah.
- 29:49We're not going to trade that either.
- 30:12Rest in peace to all the breakout
- 30:14traders.
- 30:15Smoked.
- 30:19Time frame? 5-minute.
- 30:24It's 5-minute time frame.
- 30:32How big is this candle?
- 30:3870 points.
- 30:48Well, at this point, like
- 30:53just got to sit on my hands. Although,
- 30:54you know what I'm looking at right now
- 30:55is I'm looking at the 15-minute.
- 30:59It's about to close, so.
- 31:05It's about to close with a nasty wick.
- 31:10Dude, give me a second.
- 31:26Oh, my bad. It was kind of chilly.
- 31:38Damn, look at that 15-minute close.
- 31:42It's [Â __Â ] nasty.
- 32:06All right, we're going to start pushing
- 32:07higher. We're going to snap back down to
- 32:09this [Â __Â ]
- 32:50Damn, you have a crazy delay.
- 32:57Yeah, I don't have that.
- 33:02It's because, you know why it is, too,
- 33:05is because
- 33:07if you're using Rithmic through prop
- 33:08firms, every prop firm has their own
- 33:11Rithmic server.
- 33:13So, if you're using Apex
- 33:15Yeah, it's not all the same. So, if
- 33:18you're using Apex, then
- 33:20you're on Apex Rithmic servers.
- 33:23I'm on just the normal Rithmic Chicago.
- 33:26Cuz I'm I
- 33:28have it through my own account.
- 33:31My own live account.
- 33:35Oh, are these breakout traders going to
- 33:37die, too? Are we just going to kill both
- 33:39of them?
- 33:40The ones down here and the ones up here.
- 33:49That's so nasty.
- 34:09As long as it's doing this BS, though, I
- 34:11probably just can't touch it.
- 34:16I'm going to hope that
- 34:18gold does something.
- 34:22This is gold, but we're ranging right
- 34:24here, like
- 34:25I mean, we could try and fade the highs
- 34:27right now,
- 34:28but
- 34:29it's probably not a good idea, cuz I
- 34:31think it's actually
- 34:35I think it might dig up here
- 34:37before it drops down.
- 34:52Now, if we continue to push up on NQ,
- 34:54then obviously I'm looking for these
- 34:55highs first, and then I'm looking for
- 34:57London highs.
- 35:00But, I just
- 35:01in this initial, like
- 35:04I need us to get away from here
- 35:07before I start to make any decisions.
- 36:15Damn, there's really nothing we could do
- 36:16right now. I just got to wait.
- 36:19Plus, I'm already up on the day, so it's
- 36:20like
- 36:24am I really going to try and force
- 36:27something right now
- 36:28when we're doing this and we did this?
- 36:33Mhm.
- 36:34Probably not.
- 36:36Just going to have to
- 36:38cross our fingers and hope that NQ moves
- 36:41somewhere.
- 36:47$11? Hell yeah.
- 36:51Banger.
- 37:35Well, we got 10 minutes until the hourly
- 37:37and the 4-hour closes.
- 37:42It's looking
- 37:43if it closes up here, it is looking
- 37:44pretty bullish.
- 37:50Yeah, I do.
- 37:55Mr. Mr. Breaker, yes, I do.
- 37:59It's up on my other screen right now.
- 38:00I'm looking at it.
- 38:35How accurate are they?
- 38:38I would say they're pretty accurate.
- 38:40Well, what do you mean? Like, the data?
- 38:43Or act like
- 38:46accurate in terms of like someone trying
- 38:48to take a bounce off of them or
- 38:49something.
- 38:58All right, so we took these highs. Are
- 38:59we going to actually continue
- 39:03and start coming up here?
- 39:06Watching here now.
- 39:13I would like the hourly to close,
- 39:14though.
- 39:17Up here. If we If we are going to come
- 39:19up here,
- 39:22then I need the hourly the hourly to
- 39:24close pretty strong.
- 39:29I use them for I use them for market
- 39:31regime
- 39:33to understand
- 39:35what type of environment
- 39:37we're currently in.
- 39:39I don't necessarily
- 39:42look at gamma levels and like just take
- 39:45a bounce off of them, although
- 39:47sometimes, [clears throat]
- 39:48but it depends.
- 39:51Because different gamma levels are
- 39:53there's different
- 39:55There there will be gamma levels all
- 39:57over your chart basically.
- 39:59I mean
- 40:01there's a few that are important though.
- 40:11But there's people who actually just
- 40:12wait until we get to a certain gamma
- 40:14levels or the gamma flip and then
- 40:21they take bounces and stuff and that
- 40:23works out great for them, but I just
- 40:24don't do that.
- 40:28Or if I do, it just depends.
- 40:38All right.
- 40:40It's looking pretty strong.
- 40:47Although there's nowhere that we can
- 40:48enter this
- 40:50really.
- 41:05Although the hourly's looking
- 41:07pretty bullish.
- 41:11Swap lows.
- 41:13And we're about to just
- 41:16pop back up into here.
- 41:19As long as it holds up here
- 41:21and the hourly retraces, creates the
- 41:23wick and starts pushing as well.
- 42:20I got to This is not going to be the
- 42:22high, but I got to see
- 42:24um
- 42:25what the hourly's going to do first.
- 42:31But this is
- 42:32This is definitely not going to be the
- 42:33high of the session.
- 42:39Pretty much, dude. I just look at
- 42:43not necessarily to predict market
- 42:45conditions, it's just to understand
- 42:46where we're at.
- 42:50You know, and and what type of moves are
- 42:53structurally allowed
- 42:56based off of dealer positioning.
- 43:03Like if I'm looking for a breakout
- 43:06but we're sitting in high positive gamma
- 43:09and my breakout is running straight into
- 43:11a call resistance or call wall.
- 43:15Well, then
- 43:16I may be careful about it.
- 43:20Because that volatility is going to get
- 43:22suppressed essentially.
- 43:25They're going to sell into the pump.
- 43:44How long have I been trading order flow?
- 43:46Uh
- 43:542 and 1/2 years.
- 44:17I'm looking to see if there's an
- 44:18opportunity for me to continue these uh
- 44:20longs.
- 44:22But I'm waiting for the hourly.
- 44:25Because
- 44:28the hourly can open up and retrace
- 44:30first.
- 44:41But if we do go long, we would be
- 44:43targeting uh
- 44:47targeting up here.
- 44:49Basically 24,300.
- 45:00Seeing results with order flow?
- 45:02Uh well, when I first got order flow
- 45:05I didn't really know how to use it.
- 45:07And actually just like
- 45:11it If if you don't know what you're
- 45:12looking at and you start trying to read
- 45:14a bunch of stuff that you don't
- 45:16understand what's happening, well, guess
- 45:17what? Now you got more stuff that you
- 45:19look at and more stuff that you could be
- 45:21wrong on.
- 45:23And then you end up losing more.
- 45:27Took a while.
- 45:29Um
- 45:35I would say I really started getting the
- 45:36hang of order flow like in terms of
- 45:39footprint charts because I I first
- 45:42started using Bookmap.
- 45:49Dude, no. Yeah, look at this 15-minute,
- 45:51dude. What the [Â __Â ]
- 45:55Sick.
- 45:59Super sick.
- 46:23Damn.
- 46:26>> [laughter]
- 46:29>> Damn.
- 46:32That's so nasty.
- 46:36All right, here we go. Hourly open.
- 46:38We're going to probably pop up here.
- 46:41At least take this take these little
- 46:43highs.
- 46:50There's just like nothing for me to
- 46:51enter on.
- 46:57What does the 50 What does the 15
- 47:00look like?
- 47:04Oh, dude, that was looking nasty for a
- 47:06second. That took what? 30 seconds for
- 47:08it to come all the way back up.
- 47:12It's kind of crazy.
- 47:22Trump's about to speak. Ooh.
- 47:26Ooh, he is about to speak.
- 47:30What's he going to speak about?
- 47:35Hopefully we get in a position and he
- 47:37says some [Â __Â ] that causes another 800
- 47:39or 900 point candle.
- 47:42I'll be so happy.
- 47:44If I'm on the right side If I'm on the
- 47:45right side of it at least.
- 48:04Ikigai, are you up right now?
- 48:06Swear this This guy always makes like
- 48:08$5,000 before market open.
- 48:12What's it looking like today?
- 48:17Did you cook or did you get cooked?
- 48:19Ooh.
- 48:21Yeah, it was pretty nasty so far. I
- 48:22haven't taken anything.
- 48:26I may not even take anything.
- 48:34I think I think uh
- 48:37gold and Asia, I think we're coming up
- 48:40becoming a little closer as friends. I
- 48:41think we're going to uh
- 48:44Back in October
- 48:46November
- 48:49and even December, I was really just
- 48:50trading gold.
- 48:52I wasn't even trading NQ.
- 48:56Because it was doing [Â __Â ] like this.
- 48:58So
- 49:02gold and I have a bit of a toxic
- 49:03relationship, so
- 49:06Yeah, I made a lot of money I made a lot
- 49:08of money on my accounts trading gold.
- 49:09Even this Even this account, dude, all
- 49:11of my profits so far this week
- 49:14like this week on this account, I'm up
- 49:17uh
- 49:18$6,700.
- 49:20So like
- 49:23almost all of that came from gold. I'd
- 49:26say like 80% of it.
- 49:29But it's like what am I supposed to do?
- 49:31Like we have NQ that's
- 49:33doing [Â __Â ] at the open. Am I just
- 49:36supposed to like
- 49:37force entries in this?
- 49:40Just cuz I want to make money now. I
- 49:42can't do that.
- 49:52Yeah, gold was great during the run-up.
- 49:55On the when we were having that run-up
- 49:57on gold,
- 50:00literally all you had to do was buy
- 50:02every pullback and then just hold it. It
- 50:04was like
- 50:08It was beautiful.
- 50:14Every every
- 50:15uh
- 50:17every CME open,
- 50:19you just buy it. You literally just buy
- 50:21gold and then it and then it runs.
- 50:25It was pretty legendary.
- 50:30Topstep got their ass handed to them.
- 50:33Prop firms got their ass handed to them.
- 50:35It was so easy to trade it. You just buy
- 50:36it.
- 50:38And then what do they do? They start
- 50:40restricting contracts. People would just
- 50:42buy it with heavy size, hold it, and
- 50:44then they were they would just make like
- 50:45crazy money.
- 50:57Yeah, we are having some pretty
- 51:00uh BS like look at this.
- 51:04Usually we have more volume for one
- 51:08and we actually go somewhere when the uh
- 51:114-hour candle opens up.
- 51:15We haven't done anything.
- 51:18But it's probably because if Trump's
- 51:20talking,
- 51:22I'm sure people want to be careful about
- 51:24trying to get into something before
- 51:27something like this. You know what I
- 51:29mean?
- 51:31Because if you're on the wrong side of
- 51:32that,
- 51:36we'll send you some flowers, brother,
- 51:38cuz you'll be done for.
- 51:42Your account will no longer exist.
- 51:47Actually speaking of that, just so that
- 51:49it doesn't
- 51:50like absolutely destroy me, I'm going to
- 51:52set a bracket for a stop loss just in
- 51:54case
- 51:55I don't have time
- 51:57if something just happens and I don't
- 51:59have time to move a stop in place.
- 52:03Cuz that happened to me one morning.
- 52:10I entered a trade without brackets cuz I
- 52:12usually just move my stop losses.
- 52:16Like move my stop to where it needs to
- 52:18go and then
- 52:20I entered a trade like maybe half of a
- 52:22second before some type of news
- 52:26about the war and the market pumped it
- 52:29100 points in the opposite direction. I
- 52:31instantly blew an account. Like
- 52:34It was
- 52:35nasty.
- 52:45I'm going to go long right here.
- 52:50>> We're going to see if we could just go
- 52:51make a new high.
- 52:53Stop's going to just be right below it.
- 52:55I'm going to just risk 300 bucks.
- 52:57If I lose this trade,
- 52:59moment we the moment we come up here,
- 53:04the moment we come up here, I'm going to
- 53:05move it to break even. But if I lose
- 53:06this trade, then I'm going to move over
- 53:08to the other account.
- 53:14We're going to go we're going to try and
- 53:15target
- 53:1724,300.
- 53:41All right, I'm going to move it to break
- 53:42even cuz I don't want this to snap back.
- 53:46I would like to see us just continue at
- 53:49this point.
- 53:51To 300.
- 53:56>> [snorts]
- 54:05>> Actually we'll try and take it to
- 54:07310.
- 54:12Order filled.
- 54:14Ooh.
- 54:19Ooh.
- 54:21What? We went
- 54:24like 30 points in the profit.
- 54:33Ooh.
- 54:40Dude, let's go look at gold, bro.
- 54:45Gold is also on [Â __Â ]
- 55:03What is this?
- 55:08Uh you might have to leave and join
- 55:09back.
- 55:26How
- 55:30210. Uh disgusting. Where is this? 210.
- 55:37.75
- 55:4230 points in profit.
- 55:46Bro, why can't we just have some
- 55:48follow-through? Like
- 55:53What the [Â __Â ] dude?
- 56:05Silver. We're going to trade some
- 56:07silver.
- 56:08[Â __Â ] looks This shit's dangerous.
- 56:12When we were when silver was running, I
- 56:14was trading it. Ooh.
- 56:17That'll get your heart pumping, dude.
- 56:39Good stuff, Zo.
- 56:40Good stuff.
- 56:43Could you explain imbalances? Are you
- 56:45talking about imbalances on the bid and
- 56:47the ask or like
- 56:49imbalances in terms of uh
- 56:53auction states?
- 56:57Bid in the ask.
- 57:00Well,
- 57:02what are you looking at? Like do you
- 57:04know what an imbalance is? If Just so
- 57:07you know, they're these like bold
- 57:09numbers on my screen.
- 57:11Okay?
- 57:13And I have it set for 400%.
- 57:16And what that is telling me is it's just
- 57:18telling me
- 57:20are there four times as many buyers or
- 57:23sellers in this area, right? So like
- 57:25right here.
- 57:29You see that sellers were hitting the
- 57:31bid
- 57:33and there's four times as many in this
- 57:35diagonal. You read it diagonal not side
- 57:37by side.
- 57:39And so
- 57:41that alone that information alone
- 57:45in isolation means nothing.
- 57:50But if we use it together with other
- 57:53stuff and we're reading the actual
- 57:55um
- 57:57auction in general of what's happening,
- 57:59we can use that information to try and
- 58:01make decisions.
- 58:15But just know that when you're looking
- 58:17at order flow, a lot of this stuff in
- 58:19isolation
- 58:21doesn't necessarily mean
- 58:24anything.
- 58:26It could just be noise.
- 58:52Uh you know what, bro?
- 58:55I spent like weeks of my time
- 59:01creating these like really nice PDFs
- 59:03that probably answer a lot of your
- 59:05questions.
- 59:10I literally took like 2 weeks of my time
- 59:12and created a single PDF. It's in the
- 59:16Discord.
- 59:17It's called auction resolution
- 59:20and it'll tell you exactly
- 59:23what I'm looking at.
- 59:25Thank you, Eddie.
- 59:28Yeah, help help a brother out. Help a
- 59:30brother out and read those.
- 59:41Honestly, like
- 59:43This is pretty nasty. If we if we don't
- 59:45start doing anything here within like
- 59:47the next
- 59:4815 minutes
- 59:50um
- 59:55It's probably a good idea not only just
- 59:57for me, but probably for all of you,
- 59:59too, if we just don't trade this.
- 1:00:151-minute entry absorption. No, I do not
- 1:00:17do that.
- 1:01:00Should we just try and force Oh.
- 1:01:03Whoops.
- 1:01:07Should we just try and force something
- 1:01:08right now?
- 1:01:15Yeah, the server's way better, bro.
- 1:01:17It's way better than YouTube. There's
- 1:01:19not as much of a delay.
- 1:01:39All right, let's try and force something
- 1:01:40here.
- 1:01:41Let's try and force some longs.
- 1:01:44I have $500 of drawdown on this account.
- 1:01:50Is it even a good idea to force
- 1:01:52something here?
- 1:01:54I don't know. I guess we'll find out.
- 1:01:57We'll have to risk.
- 1:01:59Mhm.
- 1:02:00We'll keep it really tight. I'm looking
- 1:02:02for this POC to hold in this candle to
- 1:02:04basically flip bullish.
- 1:02:08And we're going to try We're going to
- 1:02:09try and target the same area.
- 1:02:11Like 300.
- 1:02:13No, we'll go for 307.
- 1:02:17Try to make a clean thousand doll hairs.
- 1:02:24Oh my gosh.
- 1:02:26I'm going to move it to break even. I
- 1:02:27don't I I need it to just like go, you
- 1:02:29know what I mean? Like I don't want to
- 1:02:30deal with this like
- 1:02:33choppy
- 1:02:34[Â __Â ] Like if it's going to go
- 1:02:38just [Â __Â ] go, dude.
- 1:03:08Ah.
- 1:03:10Yeah, I need 1,500, I know, but I don't
- 1:03:13think if we go up I I don't think uh
- 1:03:26Sorry, I'm watching this just edge my
- 1:03:28stop loss right now.
- 1:03:40All right.
- 1:03:45And Q, dude.
- 1:03:49What are we doing?
- 1:03:53And also
- 1:03:54today like I'm moving my
- 1:03:57stops to break even pretty fast.
- 1:03:59Am I more inclined to trade the break or
- 1:04:01reversion?
- 1:04:04When? Right now?
- 1:04:07Or just in general?
- 1:04:11I know, Eddie. I need to make 1,500, but
- 1:04:14I just want us to come up here and if we
- 1:04:16were going to come up here, I'm just
- 1:04:18looking at
- 1:04:20I'm looking at these highs
- 1:04:22um
- 1:04:23for us to basically sweep them.
- 1:04:27But nothing.
- 1:04:28But nothing.
- 1:04:31We don't need to do it in one trade. I
- 1:04:32need drawdown on it, you know? Like it
- 1:04:34it only has $500 of drawdown. Like we're
- 1:04:40we're scraping by. I'm using five
- 1:04:41micros, like
- 1:04:44I can literally lose the account in two
- 1:04:47trades.
- 1:05:07Ah.
- 1:05:08>> [sighs]
- 1:05:12>> I think we're going to save that account
- 1:05:14for when we have more
- 1:05:17momentum.
- 1:05:21If we have $500 of drawdown
- 1:05:24the goal is
- 1:05:26with that account is wait for a time
- 1:05:28where we have like really strong long
- 1:05:30momentum
- 1:05:32and then pyramid into a winning position
- 1:05:34like super fat and then just try and hit
- 1:05:36the 1,500 in one day and let's just take
- 1:05:38the payout
- 1:05:40from it.
- 1:05:49I mean I pa- I passed that account one
- 1:05:51trade by doing the same thing. I just
- 1:05:53you start with five micros
- 1:05:55and then as price goes up and pulls back
- 1:05:58and goes up and pulls back like a strong
- 1:06:00momentum you just like keep adding on
- 1:06:01every break, like
- 1:06:03and then next thing you know you're in
- 1:06:0520 micros with stop at break even and
- 1:06:07all you need is 150 ticks from average
- 1:06:09entry and you just you got it.
- 1:06:12Or you hit break even.
- 1:06:27Dude, so I have this account, right?
- 1:06:29Check this one out.
- 1:06:31>> [laughter]
- 1:06:32>> It's got 53 bucks in it.
- 1:06:34There There was one time There was one
- 1:06:37time I've brought back an account from
- 1:06:3963 bucks to $2,500.
- 1:06:43So, I'm just I'm going to let this one
- 1:06:45simmer. I tried to do it last night. It
- 1:06:47didn't work, obviously. I lost like 40
- 1:06:49bucks.
- 1:06:51I'm going to let that one simmer.
- 1:06:53I'm going to wait.
- 1:06:57And we're going to try and bring it
- 1:06:58back.
- 1:06:59I need to build a little bit of profit
- 1:07:01on it
- 1:07:03so that I can just full port CPI with
- 1:07:05it.
- 1:07:07And then and then we're going to see if
- 1:07:08we could
- 1:07:09if we can bring it back from 53 bucks.
- 1:07:16It's possible. I swear. It's possible.
- 1:07:18I've literally done it before.
- 1:07:24You just got to be like super careful.
- 1:07:50Oh, that's crazy. Yeah, cuz they give
- 1:07:52you like $100. So, technically I have
- 1:07:54like 153 bucks in here, right?
- 1:07:58So
- 1:08:00if we can like just get like a couple
- 1:08:02hundred bucks going in there
- 1:08:06just by pyramiding one micro at a time
- 1:08:08on whatever I'm trading.
- 1:08:12I think we could
- 1:08:13I think we could bring it back.
- 1:08:16The odds are low.
- 1:08:20But it's still there. We still have a a
- 1:08:21chance.
- 1:08:36So, what do what do we do so far today?
- 1:08:37We took
- 1:08:39two trades, both went like
- 1:08:43100 ticks in profit and then they
- 1:08:45snapped back on us.
- 1:08:48And we got hit break even.
- 1:08:55Could be worse.
- 1:09:01Dude, later tonight
- 1:09:04I'm going to go play some poker.
- 1:09:09But I have a prop firm match live stream
- 1:09:11I got to do tomorrow.
- 1:09:15I might show up like super tired.
- 1:09:18Unless I lose all my money really
- 1:09:20quickly playing poker, but
- 1:09:25Is this it? Are we finally going to go
- 1:09:27up?
- 1:09:39Should we give it another try?
- 1:09:47Let's try and do it with a buy stop.
- 1:09:52Let's try it. Let's try and catch the
- 1:09:54break with a buy stop.
- 1:10:06By the way, this is a this is a If
- 1:10:09you're watching me do this, this is kind
- 1:10:10of a dangerous thing to do because we
- 1:10:11could
- 1:10:12snap up and snap back down like
- 1:10:14immediately.
- 1:10:40All right, we got to take it away.
- 1:10:47Yeah, I think we're going to lock out of
- 1:10:49this uh
- 1:10:51Topstep account. So, we're we're up 1771
- 1:10:54on that account.
- 1:10:55We'll take it. We'll let's focus on this
- 1:10:57one.
- 1:11:02We
- 1:11:03probably are not going to really trade
- 1:11:04this, but
- 1:11:09I'm going to give it a little bit of
- 1:11:09time here. I'm going to give it just a
- 1:11:11little bit of time.
- 1:12:33Have you guys traded this?
- 1:12:35Are you guys trading this or uh
- 1:12:43Are we all just sitting here?
- 1:12:52It's compressing pretty hard right now.
- 1:12:53Look at the 5-minute dude.
- 1:13:12Yeah, if we squeeze higher.
- 1:13:17That's why I was trying to see if we
- 1:13:18were going to do that. I tried to do it
- 1:13:20twice, but it came back to my break even
- 1:13:23after 25 points twice.
- 1:13:26I'm still open to it. I'm still open to
- 1:13:28it. I'm just
- 1:13:29waiting.
- 1:13:40Trying to short ES. What's going on over
- 1:13:42there?
- 1:13:43It's doing the same thing.
- 1:14:00Or you know what we can do
- 1:14:02if we're going to compress like this,
- 1:14:05if you got really big ass balls, when it
- 1:14:07starts dropping lower and everyone
- 1:14:09thinks we're about to drop lower, um
- 1:14:11maybe I might fade it.
- 1:14:13I'm going to fade it back into the
- 1:14:14range.
- 1:14:17And then try and catch my entry on longs
- 1:14:20down here.
- 1:14:26I just got to be careful, dude, because
- 1:14:28this has
- 1:14:29$500 of drawdown.
- 1:14:32We need to build it. We need to build it
- 1:14:33up.
- 1:14:58Get another one ready.
- 1:15:00Yeah, ghoul. Like
- 1:15:02I [clears throat] think it would be
- 1:15:03pretty ideal
- 1:15:05for a long scenario if we push down
- 1:15:07right now.
- 1:15:11And then we just like snap back up and
- 1:15:14then actually make the run
- 1:15:16higher. The only thing that's bothering
- 1:15:18me, though, is um
- 1:15:21Well, for one, volume is super low for
- 1:15:23the time being.
- 1:15:25And the hourly candle
- 1:15:28wicked and is coming down.
- 1:15:30And we're about halfway through it right
- 1:15:32now.
- 1:15:33But we're going to see if the the 15
- 1:15:35minutes about to open right now as well
- 1:15:37as like uh
- 1:15:38halfway through the hour.
- 1:15:41So, we'll see if it does anything.
- 1:15:45But I am kind of tempted to try and fade
- 1:15:48this if it does like a fake move lower.
- 1:15:53But I'm going to have to I'm going to
- 1:15:54have to put like a
- 1:15:58pretty tight stop loss.
- 1:16:01And then I'm going to move it to break
- 1:16:02even. I'm going to have to move it to
- 1:16:03break even like
- 1:16:05pretty [Â __Â ] fast.
- 1:16:29But if we're going to do it, I need to
- 1:16:30wait for the
- 1:16:31for this new candle. I would like to see
- 1:16:34it basically open,
- 1:16:37push,
- 1:16:38and then we're going to fade and then
- 1:16:39I'm going to try and fade it.
- 1:16:48Unless it's just going to do it right
- 1:16:50here. I hope not.
- 1:17:51Damn it, dude.
- 1:17:58Oh, is this about a run?
- 1:18:01Is this about
- 1:18:01>> [laughter]
- 1:18:04>> I wanted it to come a little lower
- 1:18:05first.
- 1:19:27>> Dude, what a lame.
- 1:19:29Why is new Why is NQ being so lame,
- 1:19:32dude?
- 1:19:38We're going to have to just
- 1:19:40switch over to switch over to Asia.
- 1:19:52Yeah, volume is dead.
- 1:19:55Yeah, do I just do I just sleep through
- 1:19:57the mornings now and and uh
- 1:19:59stay up for London and Asia?
- 1:20:07Yeah, pre-market's actually been making
- 1:20:08some decent moves.
- 1:20:15All right, is it going to give us an
- 1:20:16opportunity to fade it?
- 1:20:45Yeah, it's [Â __Â ] AIDS. It's AIDS.
- 1:21:00No, Eddie, watch it be like last time
- 1:21:02where we were noticing that London was
- 1:21:04making the best moves and then the
- 1:21:05moment I started trading London, it just
- 1:21:07turned into dog [Â __Â ]
- 1:21:18>> [laughter]
- 1:21:24>> I know. You're right. You're right.
- 1:22:46There's still a chance.
- 1:23:08Yeah, how long have we been stuck here,
- 1:23:10dude?
- 1:23:13Almost an hour?
- 1:24:03All right.
- 1:24:05All right, go a little lower.
- 1:24:07It's a little lower.
- 1:24:10And then I'm going to try and fade it.
- 1:24:14But I'm going to if I lose, I'm going to
- 1:24:16risk like 200 I'm going to risk half of
- 1:24:17my drawdown on this.
- 1:24:20And then if I lose,
- 1:24:23we'll just stop.
- 1:24:29Fade it.
- 1:24:33Fade it.
- 1:24:34I'm going to try it.
- 1:24:35Unless we break lower.
- 1:24:47Come on, just stay in this range for a
- 1:24:49little longer.
- 1:25:00Mhm.
- 1:25:01It's not a strong reaction back up.
- 1:25:08Should we tighten it? Yeah, we should
- 1:25:10probably tighten it.
- 1:25:20Ooh.
- 1:25:27It's all right. We'll We're only going
- 1:25:28to lose 75 bucks. We'll still have $425
- 1:25:32of drawdown. Actually, wait, I'm up 33
- 1:25:34bucks. We're We're good.
- 1:25:37We're good.
- 1:25:54All right, let's go break even.
- 1:25:58Let her fly. Come on.
- 1:26:02We're going to be aiming for the same
- 1:26:03thing again, 300.
- 1:26:06Actually, 307.
- 1:26:08Oh, wait, that's That would be
- 1:26:10All right. We're going to go for the
- 1:26:12pass in a single trade if we could get
- 1:26:13up there.
- 1:26:14Or the payout. We're going to go for a
- 1:26:15payout in a single trade. No!
- 1:26:45It's a new 5-minute.
- 1:26:54Come on, who faded that with me? What?
- 1:26:57Who faded that with me? What?
- 1:27:01Let's go.
- 1:27:04Squeeze it.
- 1:27:06Push it up. Let me Dude, if this if this
- 1:27:08hits my TP, I'll be able to take a
- 1:27:10payout.
- 1:27:12That'd be sick. Single trade. Well,
- 1:27:15actually,
- 1:27:16we'll say two trades.
- 1:27:23Uh, but now we're at the top of the
- 1:27:25range, so like
- 1:27:29we need to either break it.
- 1:27:33But we got a good entry. If it comes
- 1:27:35down and wants to be whack, well, you
- 1:27:36know what? Look at that, dude. Uh.
- 1:27:39If it comes down, hits us out, it is
- 1:27:41what it is. We gave it a shot. It went
- 1:27:43like 50 points in the profit, so.
- 1:27:49Ooh, what the hell was that?
- 1:28:00>> [laughter]
- 1:28:01>> Bro, what the [Â __Â ] was that? All right,
- 1:28:04how far
- 1:28:05Oh, dude, I can't.
- 1:28:17That's a sign, dude. That's a sign we
- 1:28:18got to stop.
- 1:28:22Don't you [Â __Â ] dare [Â __Â ] pop back
- 1:28:24up after that. Oh my god, dude.
- 1:28:32Hold on, I got to go take a walk for a
- 1:28:33second. Give me a second.
- 1:28:58Oh.
- 1:29:00Dude.
- 1:29:04That was actually nuts.
- 1:29:13You know why that happens? Cuz I'm
- 1:29:15sitting up over I I was sitting here
- 1:29:16being like Oh, yeah. Look at that. I'm
- 1:29:18about to
- 1:29:20I literally
- 1:29:21I jinxed it, dude. I'm sorry. I jinxed
- 1:29:23it.
- 1:29:24No, that was nasty. We pushed up.
- 1:29:28Got wrecked at the top of the range.
- 1:29:31It was a decent idea. We were looking
- 1:29:33for us to basically make a fake move
- 1:29:35lower and then start popping up and
- 1:29:37squeeze all the way to
- 1:29:39London highs, but
- 1:29:42it went like
- 1:29:45How far in profit did this go?
- 1:29:47Where did we get in? We got in somewhere
- 1:29:49like right here, right?
- 1:29:55Yeah, like dude, went like almost [Â __Â ]
- 1:30:0360, we'll say 65 points in profit.
- 1:30:14Yeah, you know what? It was a good
- 1:30:15attempt.
- 1:30:16It was all right.
- 1:30:18But
- 1:30:20that right there
- 1:30:23is a sign
- 1:30:25for me to stop.
- 1:30:31So, recap recap of the day here.
- 1:30:37I went long twice
- 1:30:40in this area.
- 1:30:43Both of them went 25 points in profit.
- 1:30:47Came back and hit me at break even.
- 1:30:49Then we went long right here.
- 1:30:52Went 65 points in profit
- 1:30:56and slammed back.
- 1:30:58Slammed back and now we're going lower.
- 1:31:02Or
- 1:31:05yeah, so
- 1:31:11little bit of a break even day. Good
- 1:31:13thing I made money on my top sub account
- 1:31:17last night with gold, so we're up 1,700.
- 1:31:22We made $44 on this account.
- 1:31:30No, I don't want to trade this, dude.
- 1:31:34Did Was something said right there?

- 1:31:53We were so good. We I swear that would
- 1:31:56have been like we would have hit that.

- 1:32:19there.
- 1:32:25He [Â __Â ] ruined my longs.
- 1:32:32All right.
- 1:32:33All right, I'm done. I'll catch you guys
- 1:32:34later.
