- 0:01hey guys how's it going jack kellogg
- 0:03here long time no see
- 0:06i actually have not made a video since
- 0:10my 2021 uh first six month recap 6
- 0:14million in six months i'll put a link to
- 0:16the description in that
- 0:18and be sure to check that out because
- 0:19that's probably my best video that i've
- 0:21ever made
- 0:22i asked for 500 or a thousand likes
- 0:25something like that and i told you guys
- 0:27that i'd make another video
- 0:30i thought
- 0:31over the next couple months about kind
- 0:33of the the next video that i wanted to
- 0:34make i really wanted to wait till
- 0:372021
- 0:38to finish to make the next six month
- 0:41recap
- 0:43and to tell you guys the truth
- 0:45it was a very different six months i did
- 0:48not make six million dollars in six
- 0:50months i actually only ended up making
- 0:57nine hundred 665
- 0:57twenty fourteen cents
- 0:59over the next six months which is still
- 1:01great money
- 1:02but
- 1:03it was very inconsistent very choppy
- 1:06trading
- 1:08and
- 1:10i was not performing anywhere near my
- 1:13best
- 1:14and that's okay because you have to
- 1:16ask yourself
- 1:18why
- 1:19were the next six months of the year so
- 1:21much different than the first six months
- 1:23and that is because we saw a serious
- 1:26market shift
- 1:27with
- 1:28otcs becoming pretty much extinct
- 1:32the last six months especially the last
- 1:34three or four months
- 1:36per se
- 1:37and also
- 1:39to make
- 1:40the amount of um
- 1:42money that i did in the first six months
- 1:45you have to think that i got a little
- 1:47bit complacent i got a little bit lazy
- 1:50i kind of just was like okay i'll just
- 1:52wait for what makes sense
- 1:54and
- 1:55now after these six months have have
- 1:57passed and going into 2022
- 2:00i realized that i have to
- 2:02adapt as a trader and it's been
- 2:05a long enough time for me now to realize
- 2:08what i have to do i've had a lot of time
- 2:10to think
- 2:12instead of work as you can see
- 2:14all these blank days here where i did
- 2:16not trade
- 2:18and
- 2:19that is actually a first for me i have
- 2:22been trading pretty much every single
- 2:24day since january of 2018 and even a
- 2:26bunch in 2017
- 2:29so it's been
- 2:31quite the the four to five year journey
- 2:34for me of putting in the work every
- 2:36single day
- 2:37so
- 2:38the main thing
- 2:40that i was focused on was was taking a
- 2:42couple of these summer months off
- 2:44so i took
- 2:45a lot of time off in july the most i
- 2:46could
- 2:47i went on a few trips um
- 2:50all around and
- 2:52august i was in
- 2:55italy for three weeks and i think this
- 2:58is the longest break i've ever taken
- 3:00almost two weeks
- 3:02with zero trades
- 3:05um as you can see like i can go a few
- 3:07days to a week and then i start to get
- 3:09itchy and i go for a trade
- 3:13but anyway
- 3:14um as you can see like
- 3:17these months i also i tried to have the
- 3:20mindset of okay i have a lot of capital
- 3:23so i'm gonna just wait for
- 3:25the best opportunities and show up and
- 3:27hit those hard and then
- 3:29you know peace out but
- 3:31that i found was very very hard to do
- 3:35you really have to stay
- 3:37focused on the tape and always be
- 3:39practicing and not be rusty you got to
- 3:41be
- 3:42in the batting cage every single day
- 3:44taking free throws whatever it is
- 3:46practicing and practicing staying ready
- 3:48because you can't just show up and
- 3:50expect to nail the big opportunities as
- 3:52you can see like my win percent was
- 3:55around
- 3:5750 50 with
- 3:58these big opportunities like i would
- 4:00make big then i'd lose big would make
- 4:02big lose big et cetera
- 4:05so it was very break even and a lot of
- 4:08unnecessary um
- 4:10emotional swings i had to go through to
- 4:14end up
- 4:15not making too much other than october
- 4:19october was
- 4:21my best month
- 4:23september
- 4:24i tried to
- 4:27after taking those big upswings and
- 4:29large down swings i tried september to
- 4:32size down and really just focus on
- 4:34taking singles and this was actually
- 4:36probably my best month
- 4:38of taking singles
- 4:41and actually it looks like
- 4:44my average gain and loss were about the
- 4:46same
- 4:47um
- 4:48looks like i missed to do i missed my
- 4:49win percent but
- 4:52let's just see here on the monthly
- 4:54review
- 4:56on my win percent for september
- 5:06it was about
- 5:0859
- 5:09okay
- 5:11so
- 5:12that's a little confusing but i guess
- 5:14that's the data for for this month
- 5:17moving on to
- 5:20october october was by far my best month
- 5:24trading i did good
- 5:26for
- 5:28um a bunch of weeks here and i was ready
- 5:30for the a plus opportunity on dwock and
- 5:33phun and instead of having these large
- 5:36downswings i was ready i was focused i
- 5:38had these few days before i had a couple
- 5:40days a few days off before
- 5:43i came back and i just absolutely nailed
- 5:46and then i nailed again and then it
- 5:47started to get choppy and i sized down
- 5:49once again and
- 5:51this month as well i did have a large
- 5:54swing on sheba
- 5:56it was a very good crypto trade for me
- 6:00so this month was really really good i
- 6:02don't have the crypto trade
- 6:04added here this is just stocks
- 6:06so this was my best month
- 6:09um in october this is the kind of month
- 6:11i would have the first six months so it
- 6:14was nice still to have one really really
- 6:16really solid month
- 6:18and
- 6:21although this kind of set me up for
- 6:23failure in november and december and
- 6:25this month as well because
- 6:29i just started thinking that
- 6:33okay
- 6:34hold on guys i'm gonna pause this and
- 6:36plug in my laptop i'm so sorry
- 6:40i will be right back
- 6:43all right i plugged in my laptop so we
- 6:46don't have to worry about the battery
- 6:47dying
- 6:48anymore
- 6:52so what i was saying was october set me
- 6:54up for failure for november and december
- 6:56because statistically
- 6:58i knew that otcs and small caps
- 7:01they tend to get hot towards the end of
- 7:02the year in the beginning of the year
- 7:04over the past four or five years that
- 7:08i've been a trader
- 7:10so we've had at least one or two good
- 7:12months during that time span every
- 7:14single year
- 7:16and unfortunately
- 7:19i
- 7:19didn't think
- 7:21what if they didn't
- 7:22come back or what if there wasn't a lot
- 7:25of momentum
- 7:26so
- 7:27i came in
- 7:29with that wrong mentality especially
- 7:31after having that huge win
- 7:33on october 22nd
- 7:36which really kind of
- 7:38didn't even make me question what if
- 7:39they don't come back since i nailed so
- 7:41big
- 7:45and then came november and i lost about
- 7:48257
- 7:49000
- 7:51and unfortunately it's about the lowest
- 7:53my win percent has ever been
- 7:5537
- 7:56average loss bigger than my average win
- 7:59and
- 8:00it actually happened um
- 8:02the 2nd of november it took a huge loss
- 8:04on car
- 8:06it was a parabolic short it was pretty
- 8:08nuts considering that it went straight
- 8:11up for
- 8:12um probably like 30 minutes to an hour
- 8:15before pulling back and i got i got
- 8:17trapped in that first wave of
- 8:20um that first wave of consolidation i
- 8:23think near 400 before it went to like
- 8:25five or six hundred but anyway i'm not
- 8:27going to go over any charts in this
- 8:30recap i'm just gonna stick to the
- 8:31numbers and the mindset and the thought
- 8:33process behind
- 8:34the last six months and coming into 2022
- 8:38if you guys want to see charts
- 8:40and you guys want to watch another
- 8:42really really really really good recap
- 8:44go check out mari's recap she's making
- 8:47this uh recap on the entire year for
- 8:502021 she's including charts it's gonna
- 8:52be great i can't wait to watch it so
- 8:55i'll also put a link to that in the
- 8:56description both our videos will be
- 8:58dropping at the same time january 23rd
- 9:02at 3 p.m so if you watch mine
- 9:05please please watch hers as well because
- 9:07it's going to be really really good
- 9:09and i know she made a powerpoint and
- 9:11she's been preparing it's going to be so
- 9:12good so go watch that
- 9:16anyway
- 9:17november was really really bad on car
- 9:20and after that happened i realized oh
- 9:22crap like i'll just wait for otcs right
- 9:25i'll wait for otcs because
- 9:27nasdaq's they suck like
- 9:29i've traded them the last four months
- 9:31five six seven months whatever it's been
- 9:34and i i can't manage my risk as well
- 9:37um
- 9:38and i'm not as
- 9:40good at them as i am with otcs
- 9:43so i waited and i waited and i took a
- 9:44couple small trades here and there
- 9:47and anyway
- 9:49um
- 9:50i just ended up starting to trade really
- 9:52emotional and i couldn't really control
- 9:53my losses like as you see 15k here 26k
- 9:5628k 30k
- 9:58now those don't
- 10:00look like big losses compared to some of
- 10:01these other losses but these are really
- 10:03big losses because i was losing on the
- 10:05trade so dumb and i think as i got
- 10:08towards the end of the month i kind of
- 10:09realized that
- 10:11i'm gonna have a red month if i don't
- 10:12get something together
- 10:14and i just started to try to force
- 10:16trades and i couldn't accept that i was
- 10:19wrong
- 10:20so
- 10:21that happened and
- 10:23i lost a bunch
- 10:25[Music]
- 10:26now statistically speaking 250k is
- 10:30you know not
- 10:33not um
- 10:34a huge portion of my profits it's very
- 10:37small
- 10:38and i'll be fine
- 10:40but
- 10:40it still just sucks this is probably my
- 10:42first red month in
- 10:44two to three years um and i didn't
- 10:46really know how to respond to it so
- 10:49in december i was like i'm just going to
- 10:50size down and take it easy because i
- 10:52don't want to lose a bunch more and i'm
- 10:54pretty happy with december's trading
- 10:57i size down
- 10:59except for
- 11:01i guess i lost a bunch on uh
- 11:04the third i honestly don't even remember
- 11:06what trade that was
- 11:08um but as you can see like it was very
- 11:10very hard
- 11:11for me and like whenever i'd have a gain
- 11:13it would just be canceled out
- 11:16and
- 11:17i had one nice trade on tesla on
- 11:21december 30th it was a swing short
- 11:24and that was a good way to to close out
- 11:26the
- 11:26year i'm happy i had that trade or i
- 11:29wouldn't have really had any wins all
- 11:31month
- 11:32that were
- 11:33decent
- 11:36and the last
- 11:38month in december there was really like
- 11:40no action at all in small caps or in
- 11:44otcs so i was branching off to
- 11:47uh trading tesla a lot and mari has
- 11:50gotten really good at that she's been
- 11:52scalping tesla
- 11:54every single day for
- 11:57a month or two and she's been uh very
- 12:00proficient in that
- 12:02and for me it's hard because
- 12:05i
- 12:06i'm not really too much of a scalper
- 12:08type i like to maximize opportunities
- 12:12the best that i can
- 12:14and wait for the a pluses and go in big
- 12:16and trade those the best i can and kind
- 12:18of
- 12:19that
- 12:21side of my trading sometimes interferes
- 12:23when i'm trying to take a small scale
- 12:25position and i understand that so it's a
- 12:27lot harder for me to be consistent like
- 12:30she can be whereas if you look at her
- 12:32profit chart
- 12:33for the first
- 12:35her first like 50k she was just making a
- 12:37few hundred bucks a day and inching up
- 12:38and inching up and then she went
- 12:40parabolic
- 12:41um into the hot otc market in december
- 12:44january february
- 12:45um earlier this year and late last year
- 12:49but then it took her a few months but i
- 12:52finally feel like she's back at
- 12:54where she started scalping a couple
- 12:56thousand a day and it's really adding up
- 12:59and
- 12:59i'm still trying to figure out like who
- 13:02i am and my identity because it's been
- 13:06a longer time frame for me four years
- 13:09five years
- 13:10of doing this
- 13:12and to tell you the truth i am down
- 13:15uh just over six figures this month as
- 13:18well it's january 23rd
- 13:21so i've been doing my best to get my
- 13:23stuff together
- 13:24and
- 13:25i've been talking to um
- 13:28talking
- 13:29out loud a lot of my ideas talking with
- 13:31other people kind of like seeing where i
- 13:33stand
- 13:34and i really feel like
- 13:37i'm turning the page in mindset at least
- 13:40also
- 13:41um november and december and even
- 13:44october
- 13:46i
- 13:47wasn't doing the best mentally so i i
- 13:49know that that also had an effect on me
- 13:51and now um i'm doing a lot better so
- 13:54that's going to help a lot moving
- 13:56forward
- 13:57and
- 13:59when 2022 started i kind of just wanted
- 14:01to put 20 20 and 1 20 21 in the past and
- 14:04go out and have a few big trades and get
- 14:06the year going and that was the wrong
- 14:08mentality there
- 14:11so i think that the main thing that i
- 14:12have to do
- 14:14is really
- 14:16i have to open an account with much
- 14:18smaller size
- 14:20whatever it's going to be 50 100k 150k
- 14:23200k
- 14:24that i can trade
- 14:26to just stay active right to stay active
- 14:29show up
- 14:30try to make
- 14:32500 bucks 1000 bucks 2 000 bucks 5 000
- 14:34bucks whatever
- 14:36and
- 14:37stay in the game and practice reading
- 14:38the tape
- 14:40and uh
- 14:41staying sharp
- 14:43rather than just trying to show up for a
- 14:45big opportunity and try to nail it i
- 14:46tried to do that with bbig i didn't
- 14:48trade for like a week
- 14:51and i showed up for bbig and i was just
- 14:53all over the place and i did not trade
- 14:55it well even though the pattern played
- 14:56out pretty perfectly
- 14:58and in any other scenario i would have
- 15:01nailed that trade i'm shorting the low
- 15:03fives risking the 550 area and covering
- 15:06into the mid fours low fours
- 15:09that was just a trade earlier this week
- 15:11if you guys want to check out the chart
- 15:13anyway i have to
- 15:15have a small account that i can trade
- 15:17with
- 15:19and
- 15:21other than that i'll have my bigger
- 15:23account for the a plus opportunities and
- 15:25when the a plus opportunities come
- 15:28i'll fire up the bigger account and i'll
- 15:30be
- 15:31um
- 15:32more sharp and not rusty for those
- 15:34opportunities and that's when i can
- 15:36capitalize
- 15:38so that's kind of my thoughts now on how
- 15:40i feel like i'm turning the page
- 15:43and really
- 15:45feel like
- 15:47i have gotten through
- 15:49the
- 15:50the hard time for me even though i
- 15:51haven't um profited or anything
- 15:54yet i just feel that
- 15:57i've taken these
- 15:59last few months and
- 16:02really i've done a lot of thinking
- 16:04especially on all my days off
- 16:06um from trading these last three months
- 16:09and
- 16:11i'm pretty happy with the first
- 16:13half of
- 16:16the first half of uh these last six
- 16:18months july august september
- 16:20october
- 16:22because i did what i wanted i sized down
- 16:25and i i still sized up on the wrong i
- 16:28still sized up without being
- 16:30sharp and ready
- 16:32and that's i had to learn that and i
- 16:35also took time to really forget about
- 16:37the market
- 16:38just relax be on vacation
- 16:40spend time with bari family friends
- 16:44and really just
- 16:47kind of de-stress from the last four
- 16:49years of putting so much pressure on
- 16:51myself to perform
- 16:54and i know that i've been
- 16:55really quiet on twitter and instagram
- 16:59and profitly and
- 17:01[Music]
- 17:02a bunch of other
- 17:04a bunch of other um rooms and talking
- 17:06with friends and people so if you are
- 17:08watching this and you know me personally
- 17:10through trading or whatever it is
- 17:13i have just kind of been figuring all
- 17:15the stuff out
- 17:16and going through a lot
- 17:18so i apologize for
- 17:21my absence
- 17:23and i know you guys will understand
- 17:26but anyway
- 17:28i
- 17:29want to get into
- 17:31a few more statistics here
- 17:33so
- 17:35here's my monthly review we don't really
- 17:37need to go over this but we will go over
- 17:39the year review
- 17:40so this is the year end
- 17:43results
- 17:44i'm very happy with
- 17:46my my winning trades i had a bunch of
- 17:49you know 40 50 30
- 17:52okay a bunch of six figure trades as
- 17:53well
- 17:54and if you scroll down
- 17:57to
- 17:59the bottom
- 18:00i just had
- 18:01a few big losses here and other than
- 18:03that i kept my losses pretty small as
- 18:06you can say i was saying like the 20 and
- 18:0830k lost days are pretty bad like as you
- 18:10can see like i didn't really have that
- 18:12many 20 to 30k loss days
- 18:15until it got towards the end of the year
- 18:18and i had one two three
- 18:21four five
- 18:23so i really lost
- 18:25a lot in
- 18:27november
- 18:28a lot of uh big losses
- 18:32so
- 18:34the average price of my winner is 90
- 18:36cents and the average price of my loser
- 18:38is 40 cents so that's interesting to
- 18:40know that i actually do better on
- 18:43higher priced
- 18:45stocks
- 18:46and it's good to see that i have more
- 18:49size
- 18:50almost triple the amount of size in my
- 18:52winning positions of losing positions
- 18:54and this is just the share size
- 18:57i traded 75 otcs my nasdaq win rate was
- 19:0165 and my otc win rate was 64.4 so
- 19:05that's very similar and that's cool to
- 19:07see that
- 19:08i'm proficient um
- 19:11win rate about the same exact so it's
- 19:13cool to see that they evened out
- 19:17nasdaq p l was
- 19:202.4 and otc was 4.2
- 19:24that's also really cool because i traded
- 19:26um
- 19:28otc 25 of the time more
- 19:31and i had
- 19:33about
- 19:34almost double the profit so
- 19:37i did slightly better on otc even though
- 19:39my profit factor on nasdaq was slightly
- 19:41higher
- 19:43my long wind percent was 62 and my short
- 19:45one percent was 73
- 19:477
- 19:49and i made
- 19:50once again about 4.2 long
- 19:53and about 2.5 short and i would say that
- 19:56most of the long p l was otc but i still
- 19:58had
- 19:59a few really good otc shorts
- 20:02like
- 20:03wndw
- 20:04right here that was a really good short
- 20:07for me
- 20:10average profit was about 12k average
- 20:12loss was about 6k
- 20:14and
- 20:16yeah that's that's about it that's what
- 20:18i wanted to cover so those are just some
- 20:20stats if you guys are curious i i think
- 20:23it's really cool how they played out and
- 20:25everything
- 20:26nothing's really an outlier right
- 20:28everything is
- 20:31statistically
- 20:33appealing and appeasing
- 20:36and now i'll get into kind of the
- 20:38pattern performance part
- 20:40i spent about
- 20:4250 grand or 49k in short low case that's
- 20:45really good for the amount of money that
- 20:47i made but considering that
- 20:50a lot of my trading was otcs
- 20:54they don't cost
- 20:55it was a lot of long trading
- 20:57so
- 20:58it was about 75 long so i'm sure these
- 21:01fees would have been a lot more if i was
- 21:02primarily a short seller
- 21:04but net on the year ended up making 6.6
- 21:07and the gross was 6.7
- 21:12otcs
- 21:14otc breakouts were my best strategy
- 21:17and
- 21:18behind that i have the otc swing trades
- 21:21and the panic dip buys
- 21:23and those really were my main three
- 21:24patterns
- 21:26for
- 21:27a large majority of the year
- 21:29and as otcs kind of go ex like
- 21:32go a lot more extinct and they have
- 21:34lighter volume
- 21:36i'm not going to be able to trade these
- 21:37four main patterns which
- 21:38this is really what i learned 2017 2018
- 21:422019 and it set me up for the hot otc
- 21:44market
- 21:45but now i realize i'm gonna have to
- 21:47adapt and move into
- 21:50different sectors
- 21:52so small caps is definitely the main
- 21:54thing that i want to focus on
- 21:57and
- 21:58once i feel like i'm more comfortable
- 22:00with small caps i want to
- 22:02get into larger cap swings mid caps
- 22:05and
- 22:07have those
- 22:09kind of transfer into those especially
- 22:11with
- 22:12the capital that i have
- 22:14um
- 22:15otcs i'll always know how to trade and
- 22:17i'm sure if they ever come back i'd be
- 22:19ready to nail but for right now i have
- 22:21to accept that they're probably going to
- 22:23go
- 22:24away for a long time especially
- 22:28as
- 22:29the market
- 22:30the overall markets are really
- 22:34turning uh are really selling off
- 22:38quite largely in the beginning of the
- 22:40year who knows what it's going to lead
- 22:43to
- 22:44uh for the rest of the year but for
- 22:46right now
- 22:47i have to accept that they've been gone
- 22:50uh for pretty much a year and it's it's
- 22:52time to move on i will be
- 22:55starting to kind of follow
- 22:58newer traders and see different kinds of
- 23:00of strategies
- 23:02and keep myself more open now rather
- 23:05than um waiting
- 23:07i want to kind of move on
- 23:09and
- 23:11and yeah
- 23:12so otc shorts
- 23:14i i still did really good for the amount
- 23:16of trades that i took on these
- 23:18i wait for the best setups and i went in
- 23:20same with my listed shorts i did not
- 23:22take that many short trades as you guys
- 23:23can see it was like 250 short trades
- 23:27and i profited really nicely
- 23:30i was really scared to short
- 23:33uh
- 23:34a lot of stocks this year because of how
- 23:36bullish everything was and i felt like
- 23:37whenever i shorted i would always lose
- 23:41so
- 23:42i waited for the best opportunities and
- 23:44if i started shorting more aggressively
- 23:45towards the end of the year
- 23:47i probably would have
- 23:48made a lot more but
- 23:51i was still kind of reserved and i still
- 23:54was very open and i liked going along a
- 23:56lot more
- 23:58but now as the markets are selling off i
- 23:59realize i have to
- 24:01get better at
- 24:03at shorting
- 24:06as you can see february was by january
- 24:08and february were just absolutely nuts
- 24:10for otc longs otc shorts as well the
- 24:12whole entire otc sector was just nuts
- 24:15and i was still making decent profits
- 24:17everywhere else as well
- 24:20march was uh really good as well
- 24:23really consistent month
- 24:26april was my first slower month but i
- 24:28still ended up
- 24:30locking in a few good swing trades that
- 24:32i had left over
- 24:34and but this is when the momentum really
- 24:36started to shift
- 24:37and it got a little bit more difficult
- 24:39and then in may
- 24:41this was a
- 24:43gme it was a good trade
- 24:45i think i made like 200k that day
- 24:48and that was most of my month but i
- 24:50still had a few good otc trades
- 24:52and then in june i was actually read on
- 24:54otcs and that was my best nasdaq month
- 24:58with amc did really really good on that
- 25:01that was my best nasdaq trade of the
- 25:03year was amc
- 25:05and then july
- 25:06was read on otc's again still was doing
- 25:09good did pretty good on
- 25:11nasdaq
- 25:13and then in august
- 25:15i had a couple like
- 25:18a couple otc trades and then i was break
- 25:20even on nasdaq's
- 25:23september did really well on taking it
- 25:26slow
- 25:27and otcs are still tradable but you have
- 25:29to trade them like perfect to make like
- 25:31a 5k trade 10k trade
- 25:33um
- 25:34and the liquidity is just not good and
- 25:36if you're wrong you're gonna lose more
- 25:38than you
- 25:39expect because it's hard to get out
- 25:41and my nasdaq game start
- 25:43wasn't very good that month october like
- 25:44i said d walking fun
- 25:48nailed it
- 25:49those trades were
- 25:51really good
- 25:53and going into november was pretty much
- 25:56red on everything except uh
- 25:59otc shorts not even sure what i shorted
- 26:01oh this was htz
- 26:04uh that was actually a good opportunity
- 26:05i wish i only traded that this month but
- 26:07i started getting clapped on
- 26:11in november
- 26:13and then i have more a more breakdown of
- 26:15the stats here i've always had three to
- 26:17one exactly on otc breakouts
- 26:2161 win percent when i chase the breakout
- 26:24my
- 26:25stats are a lot more break even
- 26:28the dip buys high win percent 86 percent
- 26:31on the year
- 26:32but
- 26:33um i ended up taking that loss on mm-hmm
- 26:36and dpls so that's like the majority of
- 26:38my loss
- 26:40uh otc trend change is just a different
- 26:42dip buy term um where i kind of wait for
- 26:45there to be a lower high
- 26:47or yeah
- 26:49no a higher low sorry
- 26:51and
- 26:52that was good
- 26:54first green days was pretty solid as
- 26:56well
- 26:58lower wind percent but good risk to
- 27:00reward good profit factor on the year
- 27:04swing trades my average percent gain was
- 27:06100 average percent loss was 25
- 27:11really really nuts
- 27:12uh some of the stocks that i was in just
- 27:15went nuts but i didn't know how to
- 27:19cut some losses and i ended up probably
- 27:21taking more losses than i should have as
- 27:23my win percent was less than 50. uh the
- 27:26win percent was probably like 80 90 at
- 27:29the beginning of the year if i just had
- 27:30cut everything these stats would have
- 27:32been actually insane but
- 27:34as you can say you know human nature
- 27:36doesn't want good things to end so i
- 27:38held on to a few and ended up
- 27:42losing buying news
- 27:44you know maybe 10k this year whatever
- 27:47uh scouts 15k
- 27:49and then getting into the shorts this
- 27:51was very interesting for me to look at
- 27:54i i thought i would do better on
- 27:56overextended gap ups this year
- 27:58but i actually my win percent was only
- 28:0060 and it was about 80 on the gap downs
- 28:04so moving forward
- 28:06otc gap downs are
- 28:10and i always like to risk 10k on these
- 28:12so it's nice to see that my losses my
- 28:14average loss is right around where i
- 28:16like to risk
- 28:19so my you know my profit factor was just
- 28:21a lot better so moving forward
- 28:23i think that the gap downs are i could
- 28:26size up more on them this year and you
- 28:28know if they ever come back and size
- 28:30down less on the gap ups
- 28:34not much here otc parabolics 96 win
- 28:38percent on a 25 count which is pretty
- 28:40good
- 28:41um
- 28:42you just you can't go too big and and
- 28:44squeeze yourself but they do make for
- 28:46very consistent money
- 28:48uh michael good and kyle williams also
- 28:51trade them and
- 28:55we yeah
- 28:56it's a very uh consistent strategy but
- 28:59you just can't
- 29:01size up too much like i lost like three
- 29:03grand so i think i lost like one trade
- 29:05and i was actually right on that trade i
- 29:06remember two i just messed it up
- 29:09it was btcs when it was at like three
- 29:11bucks
- 29:14uh otc that's a bounce short and this is
- 29:17a breakdown
- 29:19solid
- 29:20solid stats
- 29:23and then getting into
- 29:25listed breakouts
- 29:27um i mean i had one main trade on amc
- 29:29for 150k and the rest was probably just
- 29:31blah but that one trade was worth it
- 29:35listed dip buys
- 29:37also high wind percent but the average
- 29:40loss is is large
- 29:44and you just have to understand that's
- 29:45the type of strategy dip buying is
- 29:47listed first green day i'm going to cut
- 29:48this out
- 29:50this year
- 29:51i you know 35 win rate um
- 29:54on a 25 count 23 count so i'm gonna cut
- 29:57that out
- 29:58listed swing trades
- 30:00pretty good listed scalp
- 30:03and then moving into listed shorts
- 30:08as you can see i also did better on the
- 30:10gap downs than the gap ups
- 30:12uh
- 30:14i lost a bit more on the gap downs
- 30:16because
- 30:17usually the risk is a lot wider than the
- 30:19gap ups
- 30:21but the win percent is higher
- 30:24and if this was 2020 my stats with the
- 30:26gap up would be a lot better but now the
- 30:28gap down's better i think because the
- 30:30market was so strong that when stuff
- 30:31gapped up it was very hard for it to
- 30:33sell off
- 30:34so maybe the gap ups will be better this
- 30:36year
- 30:37but
- 30:38um definitely keeping these stats in
- 30:40mind
- 30:41and then there's a few more nothing
- 30:43really uh listed parabolic i didn't
- 30:46really cover on on this i usually went
- 30:48pretty big on this as you can see
- 30:50average dollar gains 48k average lost
- 30:5224k
- 30:54i went big on these i'm not sure why so
- 30:56i'm gonna be cautious moving forward
- 30:58on on those
- 31:02and yeah now i will show you guys
- 31:05my profit chart as you can see
- 31:09this was in june so i i really went
- 31:12sideways as you can see like i didn't
- 31:14nothing really happened except for d
- 31:16walk and fun like that was
- 31:18everything right
- 31:19that trade was that back-to-back day of
- 31:22making almost like 800k
- 31:25um and now
- 31:27as you can see i've been losing for
- 31:28three months but in the retrospect of
- 31:31everything i am down 400k but if you
- 31:34look from the beginning
- 31:35it's not that bad if i never had that
- 31:37big trade on dewok and fun and i started
- 31:39to fade off i feel like it would be a
- 31:40lot harder mentally
- 31:42but i'm still above these highs here and
- 31:45now i feel like i know what i'm doing
- 31:48um and i'm feeling a lot better
- 31:51so
- 31:52hopefully we can we can put a bottom in
- 31:53here hold this uh form a resistance make
- 31:57into support and we can start up
- 31:58trending towards that that nine million
- 32:00dollar mark and hopefully this year we
- 32:02can get over
- 32:04um 10 million at some point not really
- 32:06sure not really sure when or if it will
