 everyone and welcome. This is Melissa Armo the stock swish and I'm here reviewing the August tracking. If you had been in the live trading room during the month of August with me risking an advanced trader risk, which we're going to talk about a little bit here, approximately $1,500 a trade. You could have made 30,105. So I call the live trades in the room each morning. If you become a golden gap course student, you are eligible to sign up for the live trading room to get my calls each day where I call the entry, the stop, and the exit. So if you're interested in more information, you can email me at melissa at thestockswish.com or call me at 929-3200-GAAT. You can also follow me on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Skype. So one of the biggest gaps for or biggest movers I should say for the month of August was Macy's. This was an earnings gap and it had a tremendous move. Stock closed the night before here, gap down in the earnings, fell high up here was over 39, low in the day was 34 something. It broke 35 I think. Just a huge move. $4 plus and for a stock at this price point that is just a tremendous move. And this is why you can make a lot of money trading gaps because they have big moves. They have big moves and just even in one solid debt. So I prefer to just focus on the morning period between 9.30 and 10 a.m. Eastern time, but sometimes you get moves like this like in Macy's where you can see that it closed near the low. You could have taken multiple trades in this during the day and you could have even held it all day in on that particular day. So going back to the beginning of the month. First of the month was cake. Nice one on the cake. 6870 trip was a good short. Most of these are short. So August 2nd, 2860, SYMC on the 3rd, 4th of the 9th was off DBX 1960. Again, that is a short. QQQs on the 13th, good profit there, 1,020 each day when you're looking to trade, you're looking to flip over your risk one. Some days it's a little bit less than one, a risk amount I'm talking about. Some days it's multiples of risk amounts. It depends how long you hold the trade and how big it moves. HD was a loser on the 14th and the QQQs was a winner. 15th was Macy's that was the nice one. 16th was two trades in the Walmart that required a retake. One loser, one big winner. 17th DF was a loser. AMAT two trades, one was a loser, one was a small winner. 20th was the QQQs and EL were losers. Spy was a winner. 21st was E-Trade Loser. HPE was a winner on the 21st. 22nd was two trades again, required a retake and target. One was a loser, one was a winner. LV was a nice one on the 23rd. 24th was GPS, really nice gap on that Friday. No trades in the 27th. Spy, two trades, one loser, one winner on the 28th. 29th, DKS was a loser and AEO was a winner and two days off at the end of the month. So profits, if you had taken an advanced risk and followed my calls in the live trading room, you could have made $30,105 in the month of August. And there was a few days off or with no trades. So it was a decent month. It was the end of earning season for the last quarter and the next quarter earnings season starts in September. So that's coming up here relatively soon. One thing I do tell people when they come, if they want to learn how to trade with me, if they want to take my class, trading is a skill. So I've been, I've been, gosh, 2008. Yeah, 10 years now. I started out in 2008 and trading is just, it's a skill. Learning how to read charts is a skill and it's a skill that you can acquire over time. The problem is that many people have been attempting to trade the market unsuccessfully for years, longer than I've been doing it and they're unsuccessful. Why? Because they focus on the wrong thing. So I focus on the right thing and what that is, is gaps. Now, not every gap is playable or predictable in the market, but the ones that I focus on are and I call them golden gaps. So each morning before I even do a single solitary thing, I rate the gap. It's called preparation. I don't go in willy-nilly to the market. This thing, that thing, whatever. If the market opens at 9.30, I am set and ready to go. Either I like something or I don't like something. I know if it's a long or I know if it's a short. Okay. Preparation today leads to success tomorrow and also, I think it's very important for people to learn. So everyone that is in my live trading room has taken the golden gap course. That's a requirement to be in my live trading room. So you can focus on one strategy and one thing you get good. That's what I've done and that's one of the reasons why I'm successful. So my class is called the golden gap course. The class is, the next class is September 15th and 16th from nine to five eastern time. Class of the class is 54.99 US dollars. That's 5,499 dollars. The class is online. You can be anywhere in the world and take it. So you want to email me if you want to sign up ahead of time to secure your spot. I do a combo special that includes the trends class and the golden gap. The trends is in October, October 1st, 11 to 5. Combo for the class is 59.99. You can email me if you want to sign up and I'm telling you you can be successful in the market if you have a right focus and if you learn the skills. So I teach people those skills in my golden gap course. If you have any questions, feel free to email me. If you'd like to sign up for the September class, email me. You'll get in before earning season begins for the next quarter and I think it's going to be a strong close for 2018 for me and for the golden gap course students. Thanks everyone. Have a great day.
