 started. What's up everyone so today is Tuesday. Normally I do these YouTube lives on Monday but I decided to do one today on Tuesday. Bow is feeling a little bit under the weather today and next Monday the market is closed. So this is kind of my way of still providing you guys value after my trade. So a couple things I want to make note of before we start. So number one is next week is a short week for trading. Monday is Labor Day guys, Labor Day. So the stock market is closed on Labor Day on Monday and usually on Friday. This Friday is going to probably be the slowest day ever because people are already at their beach houses, at the lake houses, they left. So we want to kind of do something special for Labor Day guys. We are going to be running an unadvertised sale for Labor Day. So the reason why we're doing an unadvertised sale is we want to kind of take care of our members first. A lot of people when they discount their memberships they try to bring in new people, they try to, a lot of these furus are trying to scam you 80% off, 90% off but what we decide to do is we want to kind of do an internal sale for members only. So we're not going to publicize the numbers of what we're discounting. The reason why is because the discounts are too good that we don't want the public to see. So we're going to be running our Labor Day sale until Monday at midnight. So Monday and called 11.59pm is when the sale expires. So the only way to get access to this sale is to text Tosh at 213-458-5997. Tell him you're a member and you are looking for a discount to join. Again, guys, this is an unadvertised sale. We're not going to be putting it on Facebook. We're not going to be putting it on Instagram. This because we don't really want to advertise how much we're dropping our prices. So this is kind of our way of giving back during Labor Day. Take advantage of it guys. I know a lot of people joined during the bootcamp special. I know a lot of people joined recently. Now, this is your chance to upgrade and keep continuing your education. So that's that. Number two is Joe has been doing weekly, not only large cap webinars, but he's been doing pre-market webinars for large cap traders. So guys, every single day we're providing value for you. So please use the resources that we have and take advantage of it because if you are educating yourself, you have the opportunity to make more money than the person you are training against. Let's talk about trading today guys. So I always mentioned that I let me go the other way. There's a lot of shit here. So trading today. I usually never know what I'm going to trade in the morning. It's usually a crapshoot because you never know what type of news is going to come out, what's going to be happening. A lot of people like to make their watch list a day before, but I feel like that's insignificant and irrelevant because the stock that you're watching, the stock that you make a plan for could gap up or down based on news that comes out the next morning. So today, Tesla announced news of a $5 billion offering, man. $5 billion. It's fucking crazy. So let's talk about the pros. Let's talk about the cons, right? First, let's talk about the pros. Pros. With $5 billion, Tesla now has enough funding to do whatever the hell they want. Tesla burns a lot of cash every single month, every single quarter. But with this $5 billion offering, they're going to have enough funds to fund whatever projects they want to do in the future. Okay, good thing. Now, here's the bad thing. The stock has gone up this year, 1000%. 1000% the stock has gone up this year. Elon Musk is now the third richest person in the world. Bezos Gates Musk. He passed Mark Zuckerberg. So the point that I'm trying to make guys is that this stock has gone up so much, so fast without any real pullback. Okay? The reason why I was so interested in the $5 billion ATM offering, again, an ATM offering is an at-the-market offering. We have a free fundamental analysis series that explains all these types of offerings for members. But what you need to know about an ATM offering is that they could sell shares into the open market from time to time at the market price. Okay? So the point that I'm trying to make is this guys, now there is a negative catalyst on the stock. The stock was trading at around $520 pre-market when the news was announced of their offering. And to me, what clicked in my head was this. I wasn't thinking, oh my God, this offering is so big. Oh my God, this offering is so crazy. Oh my God, they're fucking, they're nuts. They're gonna take forever. My thought process was this. The stock now has a negative catalyst in the short term, which might trigger some profit taking on the stock. That was my thesis, right? My thesis was this news, this PR would trigger some profit taking on the stock. Additionally, additionally, this $500, which was a whole dollar number, is also the red to green line. So you have a negative catalyst coupled with a potential first red day setup. To me, now that's two, there's two catalysts on the stock that make it more interesting and more appealing for me to short the first red day on this stock. Now, we have been in a market lately where Tesla likes to squeeze on air. Tesla likes to just tank and bounce. Recognizing that, being self aware of that, I didn't want to use too much size. About six months ago, on the last first red day setup on Tesla, I made $100,000 on him. And that was a different market. It was a different environment. It was a different thing. I used size because I saw the opportunity. I took advantage of it. Today, I didn't really feel like using much size because number one, I wasn't comfortable because I felt like the stock still had the ability to bounce. And number two, I just didn't feel like risking. You know, you have to be in the proper mindset to risk a shitload of money, you know, and today I was very comfortable and very happy making my, you know, almost $12,000 on the day. So let me explain how I specifically traded that stock. I posted my chart for the members in the room. So if you are a member, you could go into the chart recaps channel or the after hours channel, and I will my charts already there. But just kind of like a very quick recap of what happened. The early bird gets the worm guys, I was up at 6am this morning. I think the news on Tesla came out at like 7, 720am, 7am, maybe I can't, I can't remember. But the point is I was early. I was in front of the screens. And my mind worked fast enough to tell me, all right, offering short. So when the offering was announced at 520, the stock tanked to 510 and bounced back up to 520. That bounce is where I start to short. I start to short on my 517, 518, something like that. Stock tanked. And I drew my lines, right? I drew my lines. When the stock tanked, it started to rebound. And I told myself, oh my God, here we go. Again, this stock is going to rebound. I want to mitigate my risk. So I gave myself a number. I said if the stock goes to $515, I want to be out. I want to at least make a profit on this trade. I want to at least break even on this trade. I don't want to turn this trade into a loser. Because in my mind, when I enter the trade, I said, this is going to be the home run day. This is going to be the day that tanks, this is going to be the first red day, I'm going to make so much money. And as soon as I thought that, I needed to trigger something in my head that said, you fucking idiot, if it goes to this number, you got to get out. Doesn't matter what you think doesn't matter how big your money is. Because oftentimes, we let a trade thesis kind of balloon in our head to something that it may not be. So I stopped out at $515. I made $3 a share. And then what ended up happening is I saw some sellers show up at $515, $514, $513. And I said, okay, I'm going to reshort it at $512 with a $515 stop. This way, if I stop out again, I'm only going to be breaking even on the trade. Stock went from $512 to $505, went red at $500, tank to $480. And I was out. So I made about $40 a share on that stock. So you could do the math for how many shares I had to make $12,000. But the point I'm trying to make guys is I had a thesis in the morning. I had the idea. But I let my greed cloud my judgment. But I let my process allow me to stop out and control the risk and get in and out based on what I am looking for. So if I didn't stop out at $515, maybe the trade would have worked out nine out of 10 times. It's not going to work out. But the point that I'm trying to make is even though I stopped out one time and was able to walk away with a profit, I was still able to capture the meat of the move, the meat of the trade because I was not overstaying my welcome. I was not trying to say, all right, this is going to go to $400 now. This is going to go to $300. I say, you know what? I'm going to take my money and I'm going to run because I know that Tesla likes to fucking bounce. Does that make sense, guys? Does that make sense? So today was a first red day setup on Tesla coupled with a negative catalyst of dilution, a $5 billion offering. Had there been no catalyst, had there been no negative anything, I guarantee that this shit would have probably gotten even higher, right? So that's the point that I'm trying to make guys every single day. I'm coming to the market with a plan. A plan. Something clicked in my head today that said Tesla is up 800%. There's a negative catalyst. If there's going to be any day that the stock pulls back, that's going to be today. That is an edge. When there's an edge, we have a trade and that's what we're doing guys. Notice that I don't mess around with Tesla the entire move from when it went pretty split from 500 to 2500. Didn't touch it because there was no edge. Negative catalyst coupled with a first red day setup gave me enough edge in my head to be able to take the trade short. And we have been in a slow market lately, guys. We have been in an extremely slow market. So I don't feel comfortable risking in this market because there's not much edge. So when I saw an opportunity have some edge today, got excited, got a little bit too excited, thought I was going to go for a home run trade, but stop myself and control myself from any chaos that was going to happen. And this was all on my daily watch this guy. So every single day I post my watch list, my thought process, my plans. And yeah, I actually have one of my friends, my hometown friends. His name is Dan. He is a doctor and he's actually trying to learn how to trade. I gave him access to the accelerator course, gave him access to the Trading Fish Academy videos after two months of studying. This week he's consistently making $50 a day on paper. So he's starting, he's learning the process. He's putting in the work and it just goes to show that your success is a direct correlation of how much work that you put in. My friend Dan is putting in the work. He's also the guy that cut my hair during quarantine and now again on paper. He's paper trading now because he's trying to test out the process and he's been finding the most success on low hanging fruit and shorting the not hot chick stocks. So again, guys, again, this is all possible. There is a process in place for you guys. But the point that I'm trying to make is the process only works if you fucking work as well. My friend Dan, what is in medical, he went to medical school for about eight years, right? Eight years and probably quarter million dollars in debt because of medical school. Yet we have to understand that in trading, we have to go to trading school, right? We had to go to trading school. You know what trading school is? MIC. You know what the Harvard of trading is? MIC. How can you expect to be a professional day trader, a professional doctor without first going to medical school or first going to trading school? This is what you guys need to understand, guys. A lot of people do not want to invest in their education. A lot of people just say that they're going to do it themselves. If I want to play basketball and LeBron James said I'll teach you how to play basketball for $100 a month, you know what I would say? Sign me up motherfucker because I don't want to go through the learning curve. I don't want to mess around with this stuff. We had a special promotion where we did a discounted monthly membership. And to be honest, not enough people joined. I expected hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people joined. I expect a lot of people to come through the door. But the reality is that people really just don't care. People need to be educated first. And let me tell you something. Because I am educated, because I put in the work, I am the guy that is on the other side of the screen trying to take your money every day. Remember that when you are trading in the market, you are trading against people like me. You are trading against people like Tao. You are trading against people like Shay. You are trading against people like Tom diesel. People like James. Now, when you are trading against people like this, don't you want to be as educated as we are? Don't you want to prey on? Don't you want to take advantage of the uneducated, lazy people that don't work? That is our edge, guys. Our edge comes from the lazy people that do not want to work. Our edge comes from people that don't want to watch the videos, that don't want to study. They want hot stock picks. They want 4x signals. They want email alerts. They want you to live pumping, right? The reality is I pray that they keep doing that shit because that's going to put more money in my pocket because I am taking money from the uneducated traders that have no idea what they're doing. So it is your job, guys. It is your job to focus on your education. It is your job to invest in yourself. By paying for MIC for $200 a month, you have the opportunity. You have the ability to potentially make 10, 20, 30 times that a month. You are investing in yourself with your education. If someone told me that I could pay $200 a month and after two years make a hundred grand trading, I would say to myself, I'd be fucking stupid not to do that. College, I went to a very cheap college. College cost me $20,000 a year. Cheap college. MIC annual is a tenth of that price. A tenth of that price. So for a tenth of the price of college, you can make more than college graduates. It's something that you guys aren't understanding, guys. It's something that you guys don't get. Invest in yourself. Invest in your education. Put in the work. Put in the work. Every single day, I haven't missed a Monday YouTube live in two years. I haven't missed one in two years, okay? And that is because I know that if I get sloppy, there's someone else out there that's going to take my money. It is in my best interest to continue putting in the work because if not, someone else is going to take my money. Does that make sense, guys? And that's why I want you guys to take advantage of this Labor Day promotion. This is, again, only four members, right? We want to make sure that you guys are here for the long run. Do you think someone goes to medical school and after one month, they could become a doctor? Do you think someone goes to law school and after six months, they get a law degree? It's the same thing with training, guys. These are the analogies that we created. These are the analogies that me and Bao came up with. Yet, people are copying this shit, too, right? Everything that we started at MIC about the process, college, lawyer, everything that we've said about MIC from the very start, all these other guys are copying, all these other guys are imitating. First, they were making fun of us. Now, they're all copying us. So it just goes to show, guys, that everyone wants to be like us. Everyone wants to copy us. And that, to me, is very flattering because it just shows that people in the industry for over 10 years have no clue what they're talking about. All of a sudden, the new kids on the block show up and everyone wants a piece of it. So what I'm trying to make, guys, is there is opportunity in the market. I was able to make almost $12,000 today. I worked less than an hour today. And if I really wanted, I could go get a steak for lunch. I could go to the mall and spend money. I could go sleep all day if I want. The point is that trading allows us to have this special case of freedom. It allows us to make money in a short period of time. But that is only possible if you spend some time investing in yourself, learning the strategies, learning the process, attending the webinars, watching the video lessons, and doing everything in your best ability. Again, even attending the moderator phone calls. So we do moderator phone calls every single day. And the point is this, guys, Bao and I are both very successful traders. But what you have to judge a community on is not based on the people that are leading it. You have to judge the community based on the fact that our other people, our other members, are able to learn your strategy, replicate it, and make money. And we are very, very, very proud of the fact that our members are becoming consistently profitable in just a few months. If I had MIC, when I fucking first started, I'd be a fucking billionaire by now. I actually, I actually always tell people that, you know, if I was a girl in another life, I'd be a billionaire because I'd be the most popular only fans girl in the world. This is crazy, man. All these guys are looking for the get rich quickway, the only fans, the text message alerts, the email alerts. But you know what the secret is, guys, the success showing up every day, putting in the work. It's like working out, right? You can't, you can't expect to become muscular and skinny working out for a month. It takes time, it takes discipline, and it takes motivation, guys. You have to be motivated to do this stuff. If you're just trying as a hobby, don't even waste your time. You need to be serious about it. Treat it like a job. I treat it like a job at a business every single day because I know that if I don't take it seriously, someone else is going to come and take my money. So something else that we were doing, I did it on yesterday's video, is we're going to start doing giveaways on the YouTube channel, guys. So what we're going to do is I'm going to do a weekly giveaway for a person that comments on the video. So what I want you guys to do is this. Number one, comment on the video, comment on the video, not in the live chat. One lesson that you learn from this video. Okay? After you comment, your one lesson that you learn from this video, what I'm going to do is I'm going to take all those names and put them into a random document, and I'm going to pick one winner every single week to either win an MIC monthly membership, some MIC swag, maybe the accelerated course, and a bunch of other things too. So comment one lesson that you learn from this video for a chance to be in the running to win special giveaways, guys. So not only are we going to provide value for you guys during these videos, I want the people that are reading the comments to get value from this video as well. So that's it, guys. So please leave a comment, leave a like on the video. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me. And again, we are running an unadvertised Labor Day Sale. The reason why it is unadvertised is because we do not want to put the prices out publicly because it's too good of a deal. So if you want to get asked to text Tosh at 213-458-5997, and I'm going to go back into the room and start answering PMs. So that's it, guys. You have direct access to me, and I will see you guys hopefully tomorrow during Tosh's new member webinar at 2 p.m. Thank you.
