We want to welcome the new folks you just joined. We have a Donjigal, DOJIGAL, I'm pronouncing that correctly, Robo Boy, Bill from Huntington, West Virginia, Alan Caesar is here with us, Kershan others. This is Online Trader Central and we'll be starting promptly in about a minute. We want to welcome Adam Ram, Peter P. and others. This is Online Trader Central. We do try to start on time, we try to end on time and we again are indebted to our host and presenters today, Melissa Armo and Paul Lang from thesockswitch.com. Again, we do try to start on time so with that let's get started percussion drummers. Are you ready? And with that ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together please and welcome our host and presenters today, the good folks from. Good afternoon everybody or good evening or good morning wherever you are. Can you all hear me okay. Can I get a nice hello from everybody please. It's always good luck to say hello to your presenter. This is Paul Lang speaking. Everyone out there. How's the sound for all of you guests out there today. I'm going to start off talking today for about 20 minutes and Melissa is going to take it from there. Okay. Rest of you guys so me saying hello to the rest of you good out there everybody. Hi guys alright welcome today's title as you can see there is earning 20k a month and 30 minutes a day trading gaps. Let's take a look at what we're going to be talking about today. Again this is Paul Lang and I'm going to be starting off Melissa will be coming on when I'm done in about 20 minutes or so. Okay. So with that let's take a look at what we're going to talk about here today. It's a great time to be trading with the Foxwish second quarter earnings season. As you know or you probably know as the title implies we look at trading gaps and the reason we do that is because gaps are one of the things to give you an edge. I'll go into that in just a minute. But the reason that says us here about second quarter earnings season is because during earnings season what happens a lot on the daily charts everybody. If you've been trading for more than a few days or a couple weeks you probably know that what happens everyone when we have earnings season to get a lot more what. That's right a lot more gaps in other words earnings come out in stocks open at a very different price from which they closed the name before. And this big discrepancy from where they opened it to where they called the prior night gives us opportunities we'll take a look at in just a minute and that happens much more often during earnings season. So I want to bring out real carefully here that a lot of people don't understand we talk about gaps. We're not actually talking about playing the earnings that's something that scares people. So this is not about going out before earning trying to understand what's going on and then making a play and hope that the stock gaps making money. That's not it at all. That's just the gambling game that you know in all the years of the trading. I've never been able to figure out and nobody could figure out. But what gives you consistent profits is reacting to the gap that occurs after the earnings are released or that matter whatever happens to make a stock gap. Does that make sense to everybody. So we're talking about making plays on stock after the earnings when that risk has been removed right. Make sense guys. Here are some contact information for us you can read those over there you can click on them want to save any of those emails for Melissa myself a phone number and various social media sites you can contact us through as well. OK. And the disclosure course. We want to make sure you understand read that over and also understand that we're going to be reviewing some plays and trades that we did and plays the word with down the room. But these are not necessary recommendations going forward. They're just telling you what we did in the past. OK. Using the system that we're talking about. And for those of you you're going to see this again at the end but for those of you who are newer to the stock squish. You know there's a lot of places out there where you realize that but the stock squish is a very very credible place and one of the best ways you can tell is by testimonials. If you can see some of them there there's too many to post in here but if you want to click on that link you can go directly to the source and read from. Investimonials and I'll even you can click right on there it should work. I believe you click on it. I think I can post the link in here too. Maybe not. I'm not sure I guess I can't. Oh yeah there we go. So there's the there's the link. So go there and check it out. There's more than you can read and they're all you know mind boggling the great. So take a look. Important that you know who you're dealing with. Let's start off with this. There's always this question out there. We look at trading gaps and we also prefer the short side for a simple reason because it gives you an additional edge. Okay. And here's where that edge is shown and some people say well gee we're in a bullish market. We are in a bullish market. Well this is going to tell you about the bullish market because she's playing the bullish market bullishly. I actually didn't catch this one but she's playing it bullishly for a while now and she's going to talk about that when she comes on. But the point is that this take a look at the chart here and the question is can you make money shorting stocks in a bullish market or why would you want to. Well because when you have this gap effect you actually get even better moves to the downside even in a bullish market. Does that make sense. Do you believe that even. Can you make money shorting in a bullish market. We'll take a look. This was the market going up like crazy after it gapped up. This is the day just a couple days ago and this is a stock that gap down. You don't even see the prior days price but it's gap down and it's falling like a rock. Market of stock down same day same time and this happens all the time. Why does it happen. I want you to pretend that you own this $15 stock when it was $18 way back here somewhere. Okay. When it's 19 or 20 maybe you're up to $3,000 you're holding it for a few days and you wake up one morning and instead of being up $2,000 you're down $5,000. Everybody please answer what is going to have to happen sometime during this trading day. If it opens here and does this and does this and does this. What is going to happen to you during a trading day if you're long to stock in town way more money than you're supposed to. What's going to happen. The answer is folks I'm going to make you put your fingers to the keyboard. What's going to happen. Somebody give me the right answer. I had a couple wrong answers or what's going to happen. What has to happen. I want you to think about this because it's critical to the reason about why gaps work about why shorting works. What is going to happen. Yeah, some of you have it. I think the closest word is probably panic. What's going to happen is that you are going to have to manage this position. Now that means either selling it right away or selling it when it starts to drop or some people will try and hang on by their fingernails punching to the edge of the rock, but they're going to get killed. And what happens is the more the people start to sell what happens. The more the price drops and the more that other people have to sell we call that a snowball effect. Now this is happening. Some of you guys have an answer when this is happening. Do you care that the market's going higher? Does that put money in your bank account? Do you care that the GDP just went up 2% do you care about any of the stuff that's making the market go up when you're getting killed? The answer is no, you don't. You have to sell and you have to sell more harder and faster than more than it drops. And this is that snowball effect that we capture by trading gaps. Hope you enjoyed that slide. I did. What does it take to make really nice money? You need a method that gives you an edge. Okay. I have been doing this a long time. Well, this isn't doing a long time. And I can tell you the easiest way to to fail the easiest way to fail is just come to the market. Think you're smarter than the market. Think this is easy and just go out and start shooting from the hip. As a matter of fact, that's what 90% of the people do. And another great statistic is 90% of the people who come to the market without any kind of training lose. And I think there's a pretty direct correlation there. You need to have an edge that means a concept where you can reproduce something you do and have it work on a consistent basis and be able to prove that. You need to execute that method properly. Now the funny thing is it's not hard to get an edge. A lot of people get edges, but then they never actually use that edge. They never execute properly. Some of you in that category, some of you do that where you kind of know what to do, but you just don't do it every day. So you need to really perfect your entries, your management, control your losses and watch how the money manager works and check on this every single day and make sure you're doing it properly. And the third thing you know is know how to manage the money. I mean, it doesn't help to have winning plays and do well if you're not really making significant money from it. It's very possible. I know traders that when they're developing, they may have two or three or four winning trades in a row. They have one losing trade. And guess what? They're down money because either their winners are so small or their loser is so big that they're not making money. And then again, that's easy to do. Anybody could do that. So we need to manage the money in a way that the good trades that we're doing put money in the bank account. Correct? The key to day trading stocks accessories to trade a method that is reliable and makes sense. Success or failure has everything to do with the quality of your method. Okay. What kind of a system method makes sense? Well, we look for a method that tells who's in control of the stock at any moment in time. Okay. There's only really two ways you can ever know who's in control. And one of those, the best way is the way that we're talking about is the way by looking at them through gaps. You need a method that offers consistency. Okay. Gaps tell you where the big money is going. And you have to know to trade it correctly for consistent profits. The main reason why traders are all over the place and the results is they lack consistency. The great thing about gaps is a lot of stuff is going on. As a matter of fact, oftentimes it's like a whole year's worth of trading is going on in a couple of hours. And I'm almost not exaggerating. There are many, many gaps that move multiple days or multiple weeks of movement in 30 minutes. I'll show you some in a minute here. Okay. Thanks, Melissa. By the way, the rest of you, you can't see there comes the room is closed. You don't know. So you're seeing what Melissa types or what I type or what the moderators types. But the rest of you, you're not seeing the rest of your comments. But thank you for all you that are commenting. So it's important to get that consistency. Okay. For example, it's really, really, really tough. You just can't go along and short the same day on the same stock when we're trading gaps like this. The conviction requires that if big money is coming in one way or the other, that that's the direction of the flow. That's what you want to do is follow that flow. Why would you want to do it the other way? Okay. Now, I know of people that will say it's not get down with terribly bearish is falling all day and somebody grabs it for 12 cents higher. Okay. You know, big deal. So you grab 12 cents higher and you missed the dollar move downward. You know, why are you always walking into the wind? You just go with the flow. It's so much easier. The number one way to lose is to always try to think you're outsmarting the people and fight the trend. The trend that's in place is your best friend. It's one of the very few sayings I feel in trading that actually is true. When many of you come to trading, you'll learn a whole basket of same. Most of them are given to you by the losers of the market that don't know what else to do but make up same. But there is one thing that's true and that the trend is your friend. You know, power going down, power is being driven by the institutional money. You don't try and fight that on the few moments where somebody's bouncing back a few cents. You follow the flow all the way down. Okay. For example, this was a trade that I did on Monday right in the Stock Swoosh trading room. I have a hard time saying that sometimes. Listen. In the Stock Swoosh trade on Monday. And this is a great example what we're talking about. This is the daily chart. This is the daily chart of INSY. What's the name of the company? Oh, there is. I'm going to say I don't know. I don't care. I really could care less what they are, who they are, what they do. All I know is that when this stock gap to here. And again, I'm asking you guys a question. So if you guys can quickly answer for me because I only have about eight minutes left before Melissa's going to yell at me. When this stock gaps to here, what can you tell me about everybody who's long in this consolidation? Everybody who bought this is a breakout. Everybody who bought this is a breakout. Everybody who bought this green bar. Everybody bought it. Everybody bought this buy it. Everybody bought it. What can you tell me? What do they all have in common? Everybody. They are great. Thank you. You guys got this one. They are trapped and they are in pain. And every penny that that goes lower. It's going to cause another person to decide to get out. And it's going to cause to go another penny lower and buy more people on your side to get out. And that snowball effect starts. What does it look like? Well, this is the daily chart, right? This is the gap. Remember it closed up here. Everybody's all happy and holding their hands and everything wonderful. They wake up down here. And this is, by the way, this is like $4 on an $18 stock. $4 on an $18 stock. That's a lot, right? And here's the intraday chart. Now this is a two minute chart. Now this is where it closed. I'm going to make sure you're following me. I'm going to go back up just real quick here. This is the daily chart. That's where the stock closed the prior day. It opened down here. And of course we call this a gap if you're, because it literally leaves a gap on the chart. No trade has occurred between here and here. Yes, maybe some pre-market trades, but no real trading went off during that time. It opens down here and boom, it falls. Now, per the entries that are dictated in the Golden Gap class, this could have been played here. I didn't do that. Why? Well, I'm often looking at two or three different things. Maybe it caught me off guard. I don't know, but I didn't do that entry. But I did this entry over here. I did another entry out of the class and got this move. Now this move, that total move was actually $1.40 on a $14 stock to the low of the day. Now I didn't get the low of the day. It was about 20 cents off the low. I got it. But $1.40 on a $14 stock. Anybody good at math? You want to give me a quick, you got a calculator there? Can you give me a quick percentage of what that is? And we're talking about the percentage of stock actually moved. There's nothing new with your profit really. But that's a 10% move, right? That's a 10% move. How many people are striving they 10% a year? Let alone in, well, how much time? Less than $1. This is why such incredible profits can be made. A thousand shares. Just a thousand shares, which is really nothing is a day trader your leverage $1,100. Now we're talking about, we're talking about the title is 20K a month. That's, there's 20 trading days, $1 a day. Just showing you examples of how, you know, and I'm not going to say this is easy all the time. But it is very, very, very doable. It is once you learn what you're doing. And you know what? Two, three, four thousand shares is to see a common trade on this. And you know what? This almost makes your whole week on one trade. So, and again, this is not from six years ago. This is not the trade of the day from 1982. This is two days ago because we put trades in every week to get these things ready by this morning. So we put trades near from prior today. And that's generally what it is. So that's what happened. So again, just emphasizing that yes, this is very, very doable. And I'm going to show you some other trades and listen to these trades as well too. We're really keeping one profitable strategy is all you really need to make money in the US stock market. Okay. US stock market unlimited potentials to pay active traders. But in order to be successful, it's important to have a strategy. Why do you need one? What strategy can make you a lot of money? Proper focus and knowledge and consistent trading success. Okay. This method, the golden gap class, what Melissa is going to go into in detail this a bit later. I just want to throw this out to you right now. What's great about it is that this method tells you how to make money in the market. A trading system that is profitable by trading golden gaps that are highly profitable strategy because they focus on large momentum to trade. You're not going to be sitting in a stock that's just sitting there going up and down three cents, waiting all day just looking at it, what's going on. These are things that are going to be moving, moving in a good way. What stocks do you trade? Well, the golden gap system is a 26 point rating system and you're going to be trading stocks, generally speaking, that are 20 points or more. That's the cutoff to say this is something that we now have great conviction that is going to go in the direction we feel it's going to go because it meets the point system that we're looking at. Very objective way to do it. When do you trade them? Another huge thing for people. There's a lot of people I know will look at stocks and look at gaps and say, yeah, I know that's going lower and they never trade it because they never get into it. You have to know when to trade. You have to know which ones are going to be quickly dropping and how to get into them in the right way and which ones may be a problem to get into. Very important to do. All right. I'm going to give you a quick quiz here because we covered this right. Let me ask you. This is GPS. Now, this is a place from the room with some last move sometime. So this one is a couple of days older. But it was just a great example because this particular chart confuses people. The stock is going to gaps right here. You see this arrow? It's going to open right here. Everybody see that? Which way would you think it's going to go from there? Because this chart tends to confuse people. Which way do you think it's going to go? Just looking at that chart, everybody give me an answer real quick. Looking at that chart, looking at the daily. And all you know is the market hasn't opened it. You're looking at the charts and saying, boy, it's going to open down here. It's trading right here, free market. Boy, looking at that opening there, I think that's definitely going to go what? Circles, higher, lower. To answer that question, any other answers out there? To answer that question, here's the question you all don't know. Who's in control of the daily chart before the gap? Who's going to be in control after the gap, right? Who's in control of the stock before the gap? Well, that's one of the questions we look at. And the bearers are, the sellers are. The big money coming in is selling today. That's the daily chart. There's the daily bar that formed that day. Conviction of the downside? Absolutely. Here's the one-minute chart that formed. The stock gaps right there on the one-minute chart. Excuse me, I'm sorry. Gaps right there on the one-minute chart, right? What's going to happen to it? What direction would you play it? Well, we already know it's going to go down. This is the great thing about shorting guys because of, I mean, we do long sometimes too, but when you short, things just fall faster than they rail. Excuse me, one second at the clock. So sorry. Yeah, there's a few people getting the answers right. Nice job, everybody. But when you short like this, look at this pressure that's coming in. This is that big institutional money that's coming in. It's hard to mess this up. If you get short, it's hard to mess it up. Losing control of the one-minute chart. Don't even need to answer that for me. Did they ever lose control? No. The entire day of pure selling. Every single tick going down almost. GPS, huge move. You find gaps like this. And again, I'm emphasizing that we, and during earnings season, we usually see multiple trades like this every day. And during non-earning season, maybe you see one a day. And we emphasize just getting and trading and being done by 10 o'clock, 10.30, we close the room at 11 o'clock. And Melissa is really great at this too. She emphasizes, you know, if you have a day where you got it wrong, take your loss, put your tailpiece in your leg, or go home because you're going to make money at the end of the week. You're going to make money after two or three days. Don't worry about the one day. What a lot of traders do is they bury themselves, right? Did they get a bad trade? And they say, I got to get out of this. They get another bad trade. And another bad trade. And pretty soon the week is over, right? There's some of you have been in that position. There's a saying that I love that's called that you're trying to get out of a hole and stop digging. It's a great expression because it really applies to trading a lot of times. This kind of trading appears to be highly lucrative, but can it be duplicated over and over? And the answer? Yeah, it can't. We do it all the time. The market never changes because it's based on people's emotions and people's emotions never change. I want to show you something. You're probably saying, OK, gee, you pulled, OK, fine. You had a couple of good gaps the last couple of days. This is all the last couple of days. Maybe I'm sorry, boy. I mean, you might just not know what's wrong. I got something stuck in my throat. But I want to show you these. This is going to be either the page share or page share. These are six charts. These are not all the gaffers. These are just ones that have really big moves. I want you to take a look at these. And these are just the last two, three, four days. I think maybe the part of this book back is called Friday. But take a look. I'm pretty sure that's accurate. HTZ. And this is a play that I did yesterday. HTZ. Boom. See that? There's the daily chart up here on top. Daily chart, the following. And then an arrow showing you the intraday chart. Because of that gap, look at that sell-off. Can you make money on that if you get in the right spot? Absolutely. CAR. Daily chart. Actually, it looks kind of similar, doesn't it? Oh, yeah. They're probably similar companies, aren't they? CAR hurts. I didn't even think of that. Virtually identical intraday pattern. Boom. HZNP. HZNP. That gap produces this decline. Can everybody see those? Okay. You know, the charts are a little small. They're six unpaid, but you get the idea. These are really, really big moves that are happening in 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes top. Right? Here's three more. Now, let's start over on the right here. Because this is another decliner. INSY. Look at this drop. Boom. Boom. Boom. Right? INSY. I actually played on Monday. Actually, I played on, I think I played on the second day of their gap down. And then to the long side, the things work. These are from today, where the market was bullish. I made some bullish gaps. This is a very bullish gap in fit. FIT. Look at this move. Boom. Daily chart. Very highly rated bullish gap. Boom. JPM. I think Melissa is going to talk about JPM a little bit. I just put it in here to show you, look at the move that some of these things have when they get the power of institutional money right behind you. Things have the big moves. Okay? So, folks, I am going to, at this point, turn it over to Melissa, who's going to go into some of the plays, go a bit on the market, and talk about a little more detail about why the golden gap rates are so consistent and reliable. So, thank you all for listening to me. The best part is still coming. Here is Melissa, the owner of this box, Sush. Thank you, Online Trader Central, for having me. I love Paul. I'm sitting here listening to him like a student. I was trying to answer the questions except for no one kidding or anything I'm saying. And the funny thing is that ever since I hired Paul, which was recently to come partner up with me, I cannot believe how similar we look at things. One of the things, well, except for the market, that's the only thing that we don't look at similar. But other than that, we look at stocks similar because what Paul said was absolutely true in reference to the fact that one good gap could actually take out so many people that it could be so powerful that it takes out like a year's worth of loans or traders or people that are down in the panic action. One of the great things about my system is that it is so, so detailed. And Paul has traded gaps for years and years and years long before he met me, except for the fact that Paul never looked at 26 points, probably because 26 points is somewhat obsessive except for the fact that if I could come out with 126 points, I would because I don't like to lose. But Paul pointed out something which is true. When I take a train and it doesn't work, I say, you know what, you really got to stop. Then you got to get up the next day and you go after it and you go after it hard. You have amnesia about the previous day. One of the great things about my system is that I'm trying to find the best thing every day. So if you just follow the top pick, money Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, stay with it, you can stay consistent. A lot of people struggle with making money in the market as day traders. I don't know why except for the fact that never when they don't have a good system. Number two, people cannot stick to their rules. For me, my rules is who is in control. For me, that means the power of money. So the points tell me the power of money. So that's how I know. All I have to do is say, okay, well, how much of this gap rate? If it rates 22 points, the control is to the upside or the downside, whatever, from looking at a bullish gap or a bearish gap, although I prefer to short. We're going to talk about the market here, which is long, but ultimately it's who is in control. It's the power of money. Power of money in the market is created by institutions who set the tone for stocks move in the day. If you become a specialist in defining when institutions are buying or selling, there's a huge advantage in your trading. Like Paul said, it's not about playing against it. Everyone wants to get tricky. You don't really do that. Power of money sets the trend. It makes the trend and it changes the trend in charts. I called the market long today in a bullish gap up, and I think a lot of people thought it would come in or fall or fill the gap, and it was an amazing call. And I've been calling the market long for a while, but the bottom line is that you've got to look at who's in control. If you are not trading on the side of power of money in the market, you will have a hard time seeing lasting and consistent success, and that is what it is about. Because if you have one huge day and you lose the next 10 days in a row, then what does that mean? It means nothing. You have to make money consistently. You cannot lose that often, all right? And in order to do that, you have to be able to learn how to read and trade at the side of institutional money. What do I mean? Banks hedge funds, big, big traders. Institutional money is in charge of the market in stocks at all times. All times. Now, here's the market. I don't remember exactly how we closed today, but I looked at how we're gapping up tonight. I think we hit over 208, either in the post market tonight or into the close today. I called the market long today, long, and no one believed me, but it was a great, great call. And the fact is the market is higher. And this is exciting. It's exciting because I saw it in the gap. The only way that I can make these calls is because of my 26-point reigning system that I can predict that we would hold the gap today. And we held it. We held it in the open. We held the market in the open at 9.30. 9.30, the market's at the low of the day at 9.30 in the spy. And I cannot tell you what that means. That means the market is higher. It was higher in the day. And one of the things if you come and you learn and you take my class that you will learn is not just the 26-point reigning system. You will learn how to read the first five minutes of the day. The first five minutes of the stock, any stock or the market or any ETF tells you what the stock's going to do for the whole day. And I'm telling you the market's at the low of the day into the open at 9.30 in the first 60 seconds. I called it. I saw it. And people went along the market today. This was a great call. And obviously those of you have been following me. I've been calling the market higher. We'll make a new high. We'll make a brand new all-time high. And I've made an option trade for the market long, higher over the high, which was 213.75 or something like that was the last high. And it was the point I'm trying to make is that this has put our money because we closed last night at 205, whatever. And then we gapped up this morning and I woke up in the morning and I saw the gap. And it wasn't really a big gap up, but it was an exciting gap because I knew we would hold. And not yet, but soon, shorts are going to get squeezed out and then that will create more green and also you have buying. What happened today was buying. Actually what happened today was buying a little bit of squeezes of intraday squeezes, not long-term squeezes of the shorts, but it was actually buying that made the gap, held the gap, held the low, held into the open, held, held, held. And then what happened was we rallied and then, I don't know what we do tomorrow, we'll have to see in the gap, but every day I get up and I read the gap. And so if you trade a stock in the market or anything, anything at all, if you know how to read a gap, so you can predict what the stock's going to do. Or any TF. You can use this for futures. 4X is hard because you only have one gap a week, but you can use it for options or anything to caps. And that's what I love about what I do. So to make a nice business as a day trader, you can't lose a lot. So you have to have something that tells you where the money's going to go. Where is the money going to go? You have to win more than you lose. That is the only way to consistently make money. If you're losing more than you're winning, you're going to be in pain. You're going to be down on yourself. You're going to have a negative attitude about life and trading in the market. You're going to want to blame everyone in the world and you're going to feel bad about yourself. Besides the fact you're losing money, which is actually worse. The emotional roller coaster that people go on when they lose money is worse than the losses of the physical losses of the money. So you've got to feel good about yourself on what you do. And that means you do something that works, even if you're making a couple hundred bucks a day. But the topic of this webinar is to be able to make 20 grand a month. That equates to about $1,000 a day, but many, many trades actually work out to be more than that with not that much risk. Paul showed some of the examples that I'm going to show some more in here. And also, you have to win more than you lose. What helps you be a right-a-lot? It's the system. I think literally everything out there, at the time the market fell this year, earlier in January and February, was calling the market as a short. And even now, people are still saying this is a bear market rally. It's not. How can I stick with my conviction 100% and make the calls and take the trades and be an overnight long to the market because I believe in my system? Now, I figured it out myself. It took me three years. I lost a lot of money until I figured it out. But I've been doing it for so long now that I believe in it. If you don't believe in what you do, then you've got to learn something that you would believe in, okay? And what my class teaches you is a rating system that helps you to believe in it. If you rate it yourself, you'll believe in it. So I'm teaching you the 26 points. So you can take my calls if you want, all right, you have to take the class to join the room, but you can take the class and join the room and take my calls, but if you rate it and you get up in the morning, you rate it yourself and you say this is 22 points and you say this is, oh my gosh, this is a long or this is a short or whatever. If it's gapping data up, it depends. But I'm saying if you know the information because you took the class and you learned it, you will have a conviction. You won't be able to stick with a train. You won't kill it. Or you won't flip it. Or you won't do the wrong thing or get out too early. And that counts. It counts for you making the money. It counts for you holding the trains. Now this was the HTZ. This is one of the ones that Paul happened to like a lot. It fell. It's a little, it's a little rink or dinker, all right. This isn't going to fall like $5 or something, but you can take a nice position in something like this because the stock price is cheap. It has a good risk to reward and also have the follow through. So the follow through was dropped in the day of the gap, gap down, boom, close the night before up here at whatever, nine something, gap down in the morning here, broke nine, fell, fell hard, followed through. As Paul was saying, sometimes these things can continue for days and weeks and years and months. Now this is already, this is already kind of going, but you could have played it here and you could have played it here. So anyways, here's the one minute chart. I like to trade into the open, into the first five, 15, 10 minutes of the day. And then I like to be out. I like to be out by 10 o'clock. And I do a world amount of every trade by 10 o'clock. Some days I hold a trade if I'm in it a little bit longer, but the stock gap down, okay. Here's the close of the previous day. This is a weird open actually. Open rallied, broke, fell, dropped. You could have been in it here. Anyways, rallied up. Here was Paul's entry in this. Boom, broke. So this doesn't look like a million dollars, but the fact is the stock was tiny. It was a baby stock. So a lot of people say, well, how do you make the money when you say the sense, Melissa? You say 10 cents. It's not 10 cents, but it is 10 cents. This is between the entry and the stock. So if the entry is here and the stock is here, if the difference between this number and that number is eight cents, and that's the risk. So eight cents times 2,000 shares is what? 160 bucks. If the stock drops 20 cents and you have 2,000 shares, it's what? You make 400 dollars, okay. So that is a good trade. It's more than two risk units. Does this make sense? You have to look for stuff like this all the time, all the time. Done, done, done, done. But you get it in what? In the gap. And so you get it in the gap. If you don't have the gap, you can't do this because this will not hold, follow through, have the drop. I call it the money move. It's the break. The break where you just take the trade and you're up as soon as you take it and it just keeps going. I do this all the time. Why? Because of the gap. So it's because of the gap and the radio and the gap. You cannot short like this in anything that moves in the market. Don't do it. You'll get hurt. What you can do it in these gaps because of the power of the gap with the institutional money. And I just do this over and over and over again. And it gives you an edge. It gives you an edge. How is someone like me that is the most person in the world that loves to short than anyone in the world? I short 99% of the time the trades I take from January 1st to December 31st are shorts. How is someone like me the most person in love with shorts in the world calling the market higher and right when everyone else says wrong? How is that even possible? How is that conceptually, intellectually, physically possible on the planet because of the gaps? Because of gaps? Because I'm reading the gaps? Because I'm so good at reading gaps that I can call these outstanding calls over and over and over and over again. And that's how you make money because it's a consistency. Because if you lose more than you win, you won't make it. You'll run out of funds. You'll have to take a break. You'll have to close out your account or refund your account or go do something else for a couple of months or years. It's the consistency that helps me stay through it. And I gotta tell you one thing. When I was losing, when I was trying to figure the system out for the three years, that I was trying to figure out my method. From 2008, when I started trading, it was like three years. From the end of 2008 until I figured out my whole 26 points. In that time, I did have a full-time job. I had a full-time job doing mortgages that helped pay for the trading losses. But I will tell you, when I got it right, I made a crapload of money. I made a crapload of money. So because of the momentum and the gaps, when I got it right, so I would play these gaps at sometimes a rate so high and at the time, I didn't know they rated high because I didn't have the points. But I'm saying that I backtracked and figured out the points when I went back and figured it out. But I would make so much money sometimes in the days that I'd go back and I said, what is that? And then I figured it out. I backtracked the system and that's how I determined the points. But I'm telling you, I made so much on those days that it helped to pay for the losses in the days that I didn't get it right. And all I had to do then was go back and figure out what I saw there to do the good ones. And then it stocked the losses and I had the consistency to find the good ones and then not do the bad ones. Okay? So this is what I teach in the class. But there's so much money in gaps. It has to do with picking the right thing over and over and over and over and over again. Remember, if you know what something will do in a stock, you can make money and you can make a lot of money because gaps move. They can follow through, patch the day of the gap on the live day and then several days later. But that's how you get the money going. A lot of times you either need the market if you want to follow through to the upside of the downside and if you don't get the market direction right, the stock won't move in your direction. You can't just trend trade everything. You have to pick it in the gap and get the momentum. And like I said, I like to be in and out early. Now this was one, this was really went way bigger than I thought of the day. This was the yesterday, I think it was, yeah. So the stock close to your gap down. This is HDNP. It was a pharma but it actually traded really well. Didn't have a big spread. Price point is good, okay? Look at the move of the stock in here. So it closed up here the night before, like 18-something gap down here, 15 into the open, dropped, broke, went, fell, almost broke $13, okay? Really nice gap. Now, have an entry in the class I teach. If you wanted to be aggressive, okay, you could have done this like immediately, but I made a late call in this, okay? I was looking at something else, I was in something else, but anyways, you could have been aggressive in this. Not always, but sometimes you can be. If you were aggressive in this, you could have done this quick and you could have been right out and this is what I mean. You could have done this in here and just gotten right out. This in here is a dollar. Now, I called the late trade in this. Late trade meaning it wasn't into the open, this is still 9.45, 10 o'clock, it's still early enough to do it. Here and here, it's still broke a dollar from this one, but you could have done this and then you could have done the call I made in here. Anyways, price of the entry of my call, which was not the immediate call, not the aggressive one, although sometimes I do it, 14.62 is top over 14.85. Again, it's a difference between the entry and the stop. So it's 23 cents. You're risking 23 cents. Okay? All of these entries, I'm giving you an example if you want to make 20 grand a month. You don't need to risk more than $500 or thereabouts for this. So, 2,500 shares is 5.75 and your risk should be similar in all of the trades you take. This is how you get the good risk to reward. But actually the target, the first target was $14. It dropped, broke into 14, broke 14. Total profit in this trade was 1,000, 1,800. So if your goal is $1,000 a day and you make almost that goal in one day in one trade, you're done. But I will tell you, this kept going. This ended up going down to 13.75 was the low. And this happens a lot, but you would have been in this more than half an hour. Okay? So I'm just giving you a quick trade here if you wanted to do it. Again, this is not this because you could have done this and got out, boom, or you could have done the climate in here, drop, broke, got out. So whatever you want to do, it depends if you have to go to another job or if your trader filled time or if you just like to scalp things into the momentum, which is into the morning. But this is your goal for two days. If your goal is to make $1,000 a day, this covers you basically for two days. That's amazing to me. And that's why you have to be consistent. And if you take a trade in the morning and you lose in the one, don't worry about it because there's many, many days you'll make two hours or three hours or you'll have a great trade and you'll hold it. I mean, that could have actually broken 13 on the day. It's still lower, by the way. Now, here is the QQQs. I just want to show this because I called this long in the trading room in the morning today as I was talking about earlier. This capped up. So this is the ETF in the market. Again, you could use the system to play ETFs the gap. I prefer stocks for the reason that people are emotionally charged with stocks. But if you do futures or something, this is a good system to use for that. We closed here on the ETF of the market here. We rally yesterday. Dropped, broke, bounced, rallied into the close, capped up. And a lot of people thought we come in. We did not. And this to me is incredible. So what I really, really love about my gap rating system is that I can see that a gap like this will hold. When most people out there would believe that this would come in, bounce off support or something like that and rally. This is what gives you the edge. This is it. And then this also is the confirmation, again, the spy did it too, that the market is higher, that the QQQs will make an all-time high this year, that the spy will too. This is the confirmation. Talk about institutional money. What makes this gap up and hold? Hold in the line of day. Hold like this. Institutional money. They bought the gap up, rallied into the day and bought it the prior day and capped up, held, held below and rallied into the day and went to the target on the day. Anyways, here was the trade-up call this morning. This is really, really good. And again, like I said, I love the one-minute chart. So if you take my classic and learn how to trade in the one-minute chart, institutional traders trade in the one-minute chart, hedge funds and banks put positions on into the open or off if they sell out. This was along. So they buy it, buy it into the open. Entry prices here, rally went up right to the target. And I don't know where we gap tomorrow, like I said, but I just see a rally here for the next to the end of the week. So this is a beautiful, beautiful call in here. You go along the market. Boom. You can be right out. Again, 30 minutes or less. You're out. Take it out. Take it here out. Take it here out. Take it here out. It doesn't even matter. Whatever you take it out, you're up as soon as you take it. So you could add in here even. You could take a little bit out here. You could put the stop at break even. I mean, there's so many different things you could do. But it's all based in the gap. Here is where the market closed the night before, and then it gapped up here. The arrow is kind of in the middle there, but it gapped up. Oh, here you see it. Anyways, price of the entry is $110.30. Stop. Actually, it's not over. It's under is $109.90. This is actually really, really good stop for the market. It's $0.40. And I wasn't tight with a call on this. You could have been tighter with a call, but it's the market and it's wiggly jiggly and sometimes longs wiggle you out. $0.40. In 1,400 shares it's $560. Again, this should be same or equal with everything you do. Every trade, whatever you take so that your results are very, very similar. Oh, this is wrong. I don't know why this is $58.15. Okay. That's not correct at all. That's wrong. This is wrong too. I can show you the chart into this. This is from an old slide or something. I think it was obviously it's not $58.15. If you took it here and made money. Here was the call. The target really was $111. It didn't break over that into the morning. It was like $110. It ran up to like $110.96 or $97 was the high in here. Sorry about that. Anyways, the profit is right. That's all that matters is the money in your account. You could have made almost $1,000 in this trade risking $560. So again, this is not to risk units, but it's $1.5. So again, some days you'll take it and you'll risk $500. You'll make $500. Some days you might make $1,000 on the day, but some days you'll make like I said, $1,800 or $2,000 or more. It's the idea of not having that many losses and the consistency of what you're looking at doing in the gap and then taking the trade and getting out of the target and playing it into the morning where you get the momentum, where you get the move. Now this is I gotta tell you, I call the target on this at 62, this one over 62. This went past the target I called, but I was shocked actually that this worked as good as it did today. The market did help this. All the banks gapped up today. Wells Fargo and PNC actually report tomorrow morning. So at the AC, Bank of America as well. So I don't know where they're gonna gap tomorrow. We'll have to wait and see. But I will tell you that JPM reported today gapped up. But they don't have earnings out until I think the following week. Anyways, all of these stocks are moving, moving, moving, moving and they're gapping. Some gap up, some gap down. Again, it's the idea of the conviction of the gap you have to rate it. But I saw it into the open. What did this do? Open? Took off like a rocket. Came in broke, set up in here, rallied, boom. Actually this isn't a one minute chart either. It's a five minute. This is the first five minutes of the day in the stock. Boom. And so then you use this information to do what? To take the entry and take the trade. So here's the long. You get it here or here. Stop of the entry underneath here. Underneath the base. And you take it up to the rally. And it went past the target, which was 62. Again, this isn't a one minute, it's a five. But the point is that this was a great call too. And this isn't right either. Paul! Paul! Anyways, it stopped under. It was 60.90. It's 40 cents. 1400 shares of risk was $560. Exit at 62. Anyways, it doesn't matter. The point was it was a great call. But if you risked, again, around 500 bucks, it rallied up. You could have made more than two risk units. So I think everyone, Paul means to start living in my head a little bit. You know, when I'm calling the trades and I'm seeing the trades and I'm taking the trades and I'm doing the trades, I'm doing everything so fast. It's almost like you have to work at the speed of light with me. But the funny thing is, if you do that and you take the trades and take my calls, you'll make money. But I will tell you that this ended up going amazingly well. But just so you know, this is a five minute chart. The point though, that I'm trying to make with everything and Paul too, is that it is very possible to make $1,000 a day. It equates to 20 grand a month. Which turns out to be well over 200 grand a year. You don't have to risk as much money as I am risking in my trades. I'm risking more than $500 in my day trades. But I've been trading gaps for eight years and I'm an expert in it. I can see things in live time. I can see things at night in the post market when they get. And I can see things in the pre market when they get. I'm about to tell you right now, STX is gapping down tonight. It wasn't planned on the earnings. I saw it tonight. I saw it before. It wasn't planned. STX is a good short tomorrow morning. Anyways, the point I'm trying to make though is that once you get good at something and do it over and over, you don't have to risk all this crazy money to get a good income going. But if you get good and you start to risk more, then that's how you do it. It is about number one to pick. And then it's about plopping on the size. So if you don't have to do a million trades and you don't have to risk a lot of money, if you take less trades, you will lose less. If you risk in the size and get the size and the stock moves in your favor, it's about the share size. If you have 5,000 shares of something, and if it only moves 50 cents, it's $2,500. And if you have 5,000 shares and it moves a dollar, that's 5 grand. Okay? So the point I'm trying to make is that it's just about getting good. Everybody wants to make this kind of money, but nobody cares about getting good, except for, guess what? I did. Three years of my life I lost money figuring this out and now I am extremely good at what I do. If your number one objective is getting good, you will make this much money and way, way more. And that's the point of the whole webinar. Anyways, I teach a class. I teach a class. The class is my method. And actually I did not make the class for anyone. It's just literally all of my notes together. Three years of my rating system and I put it in a PowerPoint and I teach it. It is authentic. It is everything that I figured out originally. I have never changed one thing since I figured it out. It is full on a great class because I didn't make it for anyone but myself to make money. And I've been making money and I've been doing it for years and now I'm teaching people how to do it. And the course teaches you how to enter and exit the stock on the day to get good risk to reward trades like I showed you. But hey, if you have a trade on a day and you make 500 bucks, it's still 500 dollars. It's 500 dollars. It's a car payment. And my class also teaches price analysis and technical analysis on an advanced level which you got to know. And if you don't know it and you never traded before, you're going to learn this stuff. For me, you're going to learn it from Paul as a great teacher. I have to learn to teach him how to do PowerPoints though. The course teaches a more proficient way to read support and resistance in the right direction because you got to get it in the right direction and you're not going to make any money. And the markets along. A lot of people short the market and they're going to get squeezed through. The course teaches you how to focus on one strategy in a detailed manner so you can become a good trader. And that's ultimately what I'm trying to do. I am really working hard with people and trying to mentor them into becoming good traders. I hate it when people do stupid stuff. I hate it when they lose. In fact, this morning in the room, I said, don't short anything today. Go long! Go long! Anything! The market, JPM, don't short. Don't short today, I said. And I don't know what people did but the bottom line was it was a long today in the market. There were no good shorts. Alright? So I teach a class. It is called the Golden Gap System. It's basically a reading system but that's it. That's how you make the money and you do it over and over and over again. The purpose of the system is to help you evaluate which gap to trade each morning using a checklist. And you got to do it. If you don't have a checklist, you are trading what I would call a comma causing. You get up in the morning and say, well let me think. What does CNBC say today the market is going to do? Or what is happening in China? Or what's the econ out today? And you kind of just make it up as you go along. And you're causing it. And you can't make money consistently that way. You will never consistently make money that way. So the philosophy behind my system is really to teach you how to find stocks to trade that have a high probability of directional bias for the entire day. Big moves on the day which you got to have. An early confirmation of the bias with the move. And I'm looking to get in between 9.30 and 10. And precise entries with follow through and a good risk to reward. And that's what I'm doing. But I'm taking it on the one minute chart. I'm looking at the daily for the points. And then I'm going on the one minute. I'm holding it down to get a ten cent entry. A twenty cent entry. A forty cent entry. And a forty cent entry in the spire. The QQQQ is great because the price of the ETF. OK. I'm looking to see what the institutions are doing. Are they buying it or are they selling it. So the one minute gives me the degree of focus for a person, a regular person, like me because I have to put the stop in okay because I'm not a hedge fund and then but the daily with the points tells me what the institutions are going to do and this is what allows for the accuracy and that's how you make money so the daily chart tells me the direction with the accuracy with the points and the one minute chart which I teach in the classes the entries teaches for good risk to reward trades so as I was saying earlier I teach a class I teach a class of classes this weekend it's April 16th and 17th it's live it's online and I teach it and I'm telling you on the best person to learn from on gaps there was no one out there that reads gaps as well as me I will say that I will put myself up in anyone in the world and on live television and this call that I need to the market is absolutely outstanding and and I make a lot of good calls but I'll tell you it was a it was a tough thing to see and it's it's gonna work out and play out and so I'm I'm excited I'm excited for the year I'm excited to keep teaching people I'm excited to continue to help people make money I just met a student a long long-time student about two weeks ago who I never met never met lives in Pennsylvania came to New York to meet me face-to-face and he isn't in the room anymore with me but he was at the beginning the first year he did the class back I think in 2013 and and he's successful and I met the guy and it's just amazing and he said I've changed his trade I changed his life and he doesn't do anything else but trade and it was an amazing feeling I mean he did the class like I said back in 2013 but I never met him before and I met this person this person that changed your life I changed his life he doesn't have a job he just trades and he's not even in the room anymore with me I and it's a great feeling okay it's a great great feeling so you can do it you know he's just a guy a guy that lives in Pennsylvania and so you got to decide this is something that you want to do and if you do I can teach you so the class is this weekend it's Saturday and Sunday April 16th and 17th it's 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern time and you can retake it so you sign up once you can retake the class as many times you do it in April you want to do it again in June whatever okay cost of the class is $49.99 and this is in the US dollars and email me if you want to sign up the papers to sign up are not on the website you must email me directly to register deadline as Friday this is something great excuse me I'm offering now for this time because earnings season started this week I started doing options at the end of last year using my gap rating method and I started at the letter it's an annual letter I'm already in some of these already and I'm doing an options letter you can get the options letter for free for the year if you sign up for the class this class this normal letter price is $29.99 so this is a steal because the class is $49.99 you're gonna save three grand and you can make this much in one of the options and I'm so excited I'm in one right now actually I'm in three but I mean I'm in one right now that I'm really really excited about this isn't even the closed today I'm actually up more than this into the closed today but I clip this from this afternoon I'm in the Amazon the the earnings are next Thursday I'm in the Googles this is next Thursday actually this isn't right either this was from the other day this is from the other day Paul is hilarious I actually added to this so I have 60 now I have 60 of these because I pulled back yesterday I lowered my price I took more and this is the crazy thing and I'm gonna send an email about this by saying this so it pulled back so this pulled back and I took more I cost average my position down took more the position because I actually had a price of 78 cents who would do that this was a gutsy thing to do but I'm telling you this is what I do by the end of the closed day I was up over 2,000 in this and I have 6,000 shares and so actually this is wrong because right now with the ad that I did the 60 shares that I took I risked what would have been the cost basis would have been 3.3 million dollars I are 3.5 I'm sorry but the bottom line is I ended up paying I ended up paying 4,000 for this position this was wrong because this was last week anyways I'll update everyone on this the point is this is a great trade you could take this trade if you want I don't have no idea what's gonna work tomorrow you will pay more than 75 cents but if you could even get this anywhere near a dollar dollar 25 it's a good price this is a good good price for the Amazon's anyone ask me questions if you have questions on that here's today here's the chart today stock gapped up and again it gapped up so I took more of it you see what I'm saying here actually I took more yesterday but I'm just saying I sold a rally yesterday market drop broke fell and this how it followed and carried through and it broke over this area and then it gapped up today ran up hell over 620 Amazon's gonna fly fly to the moon next target over the 620 is 640 anyways this is a bullish gap up that happened back here but anyways make a long story short you get the options letter free for the year which which is just incredible and even if you can't pay trade every day you could do the options trades but you know the system you know the points you can get up in the morning and rate the gap on Amazon and decide if you want to do an option in a week ahead of the earnings actually it's more than a week because it's next Thursday and today's Wednesday and you could just trade it out trade it out if the gap rates well do it and if it doesn't you won't and you know you have to sit there and day trade every day even though I do I day trade every morning but you could and that's the point that I'm saying and like I said it's earning season earning season you know it's just a good time to trade and I like STX tomorrow to short alright this is one from the other week but I'm just telling you if you want a good one and I also teach a class on trends I'm really good at you know teaching people how to not only do the gaps but then read long-term trends long-term trends to the upside long trend trends the downside whatever you want to do and I'm in these overnight longs but I like to day trade short so if you sign up for the gap class and the trends class at once you save almost 500 bucks so then you learn how to do the long-term trades for swing trades or options you get the options that are free for the year and you get the gap class and the trends class so this is just a great savings if you want to do it all this is some really nice stuff I saw this recently on the web because I've made some updates to my website I don't even know some of the stuff was on there about me some of these people I don't even know who they are because I don't give their first and last name but there's some very nice things about me on on the internet if you want to read these are students and like I said I don't even talk to necessarily everyone that's done my class sometimes people reach out to me if they have a question I teach you how to trade alone you don't have to be in the room with me I don't hold anything back sometimes people join the room I think it makes it easier to make the money back for the class if you're in the room but but a lot of people that have taken my class are not in the room and are doing it themselves and so it's great to see this kind of feedback on the internet about about my class and it is great to know that I have really changed people's outlook on the market and the ability to be able to make money and and you can take the class if you want and Paul is helping me run the live training room and he's just a fantastic person and a fantastic teacher and we look at things really the same we look at things the same except for the market because because that's tricky it's a tricky one looking at the market is tricky but I will tell you that the one thing that has helped me stand out in everything that I do is the fact that I have never never never done anything but gaps so for eight years I've lived in breezed gaps and I tell you if you want to make money get good at one thing just do it do it to you become an expert and that's it all right any questions any questions or anyone I kind of went off in a tangent does anyone have any questions there let me know sorry about some of the slides we're off but if you have questions about this trade just email me I'm I'm offering the open house which is Thursday and Friday we can go over some of the stuff in the room in the next two days actually come come to run tomorrow we're working because yeah STX I can't see how that doesn't work that's not tomorrow morning but tonight it looks great it's breaking I didn't plan on that I think it falls through tomorrow come to the room and you can get the call and you can follow me or listen and just watch or get the trade and I have no idea where the market gaps tomorrow but I just love it to follow through does anyone have questions about the class or anything so I'm offering you open house email me if you want to come to the open house if you're not sure how to get it okay just email me here if you want to sign up for the class I don't know why that goes up there if you want to sign up for the class you have to email me this option's letter though is a steal people you could you could this I don't even want to talk about amazon because I don't want to I don't want to say anything else about it but I'm really so excited I'm just thrilled to bit some pieces but it's a week out does anyone have any questions about anything anything at all if you don't have to day trade you can do the options if you want to day trade every day with me you can't and just get my calls and do it and learn it if you have been struggling with something and don't have a strategy I'm telling you my system works so it's up to you and I'm very happy to have Paul he's a great addition in the room he looks at things similar to me but it's great to have a different a different eye on things sometimes sometimes he sees long or short that I don't see you know some of these trades in here were his calls like the NC you know great call nice call and I didn't do it and it and it worked does anyone have any questions let me know all right everybody have a great night oh
