 Export unchanged, import contracting. Good, Discord, could anyone hear me on YouTube? Please let me know. I'm looking at the U.S. 3-day bill here, just drawing at 6.15%, a lot of eyes and 4.29%. Nobody's on YouTube, that can type yes. Anyone, be order. That's my room since nobody's responding. One person, appreciate it, I'll allow it, guys. All right, good morning. Let's do this quick disclaimer and I'll be back in 90 seconds here. Risk disclosure statement. There is a risk of loss in trading stocks, EDMs, commodity futures, derivatives, options, forks, and cryptocurrencies. This risk can be substantial or investors should carefully consider financial stability prior to trading. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. The software, strategies, chatrooms, websites, and any associated websites are digital venues are for educational purposes only and should not be construed as an express or implied promise or guarantee that you will product your losses may be limited in any manner whatsoever. Users of the information accept sole responsibility for the outcomes of their deployment and wholesale sector, LLC, and any associated companies, agents, management, owners and customers, farmers without reservation, please trade responsibly. Commodity futures trading commission, CITC, rule 4.41, hypothetical and simulated trading performance results at certain inherent limitations, some of which are described herein. No representation is being made that any accountable or risk likely to achieve products are losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently short differences between hypothetical or simulated performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or adhere to a particular trading program is by out-trading losses or material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. Because these trades have not actually been executed, the hypothetical results they have under are overcompensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as lack of equity. There are numerous other factors related to markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in simulated trading or in the preparation of hypothetical performance results of which can adversely affect actual trading results. This trade rule minus webinars are not intended to mirror my trades or to give specific trade recommendations. The analysis I share of trades and potential trades that I'm taking for myself based on my performance. The office room is to see trades identify specific areas to trade with themselves but ultimately the decision is yours. Trades is extremely risky and if you do decide to follow my personal trades, you do so at your own risk and can potentially lose your entire account and even more. I'm not always profitable and have routine drawdowns on my trading accounts. The spreadsheet you have access to is my personal spreadsheet that I used in my zone values and ATR values that help me to gain exact prices for my trades. You can see when I enter zone prices into the master spreadsheet, as well as the prices that are trades that you want to go longer short. You have the ability to copy this spreadsheet and enter in your own values and use mine to confirm the zone prices until you're able to draw the zones correctly yourself. This spreadsheet is not telling you which direction to trade as it has extra prices and stop prices for both long and short positions depending on which way you personally decide to trade. Number just came out here in the equities. I'm actually short natural gas. I need to, I miss this volume event. I need to travel my stop to this. I'm costing myself money right now, hold on a second. So we'll go over this short here in a second but this is the newest volume event that just came in. You had 184 by eyes threshold in natural gas and it says 150 that I will threshold meaning these are the values, the amounts that I'll trade off of anything less than that. I don't trade it. It's not meaningful from my studies, experience watching about 4 million of these things. All right, so that's zone 62 to 60. We'll go over all what I'm doing here in a second. I just gotta get this in and make sure I hope this exit is the same. So I was a short this setup by my stop goes at 74 which I think is right where we're at. Out of this short, I'll go over what I did here in a little bit. But if this guy, I turned on my internal volume but if this is overbearing talking, let me know. Cause there's something with this, I could say at every webinar, something with this YouTube broadcasting that picks up my internal volume. So it doesn't matter what I do with my speaker on my desk, it picks up like full blast. So if it's annoying, let me know. All right. All right, so quickly I put in here finally. This is my info here, websites. It's got full city trader.com. This is where you can find all the everything that I use. There's discounts on my website. It's here. Just go to these banners, book map, the Apex, we'll cover that later. It's about Gammon, it's about Gammon hero. Get an extra week, tech strike, and Trader Sync. That's what I use for my journaling. So that's that. Emails, Twitter, Apex Trader funding. We'll go over this. The code for any available discounts doesn't matter what they come out with. They've just extended their sale. I know that's shocker. It's a good thing, but they always put these deadlines and then the day of the deadline, they extended. Pulse CD 50 is good for any sale that they have whatever percentage. And then level of levels we'll talk about, which we call the Lugs. So I don't have to say level of levels 85 times. That's that website. And again, just because I always forget to go over this stuff, it's the website, put your name in here. If you want the three day trial, try them out. Say you saw in the book map webinar, you get special pricing. All right. So we will uncover natural gas a little bit. So there is a current possible setup here in Q. There was some sell ice here. This was before the number and then the number came on. Nothing really happened. You did have a stopper in here as well. Let me turn off this market pulse. We'll go over market pulse as well. It's seeing some really incredible things with that. So this was threshold as well. So I'm going to draw this on, but I can trade off this original sell ice zone. So what I've been waiting for, I put in these values. It looks like actually this has already happened. Hold on. So we have, you know, I have distinct rules that I use to trade these zones. And then different trading strategies to trade them. So the barf is just blind ATR retest fail. That's always in play. So it's literally just to show what I'm trying to show my room here is that and you guys is the edges inherent in these volume events. So the market responds to volume events. This is what drives markets, not lines on a chart to what happens in the actual real-time volume. So I'm trying to show my room. I've done it before and it'll prove right again that this is the edge, right? So how the market reacts to this. And, you know, from watching so many of these, I know that the distinct patterns that happens with these things to understand if they're bullish bearish. So I'm so forth, I want to get in aggressively versus the conservative entry. So for this trade, I'm waiting for the conservative entry retest failure. So I think I actually would have already been long list. We're going to check, but if it comes back up, I'll definitely put on the long. So make sure this is, yeah, 2.37. So the other very important thing in trading, if you're not using this, you're not getting all the information in ATR. This is telling the current volatility and average to range. I use a, just the default five minute ATR on Thicker Swim. You can get this on basically any software. It's at 14 period wilders. You can see there in the middle of the screen there, you can Google with all this is just 14, looking back 14 periods in the volatility for 14 periods. It's very, very helpful in understanding risk and how well we'll market this. All right. So this was the zone I put in the zone prices. This is a spreadsheet that's proprietary in my trade room for your, in my trade room. You get access to this. God said, before I used to do everything by hand by eyeing it and just estimating the areas. Now we put the zones in, we put the ATR in and it spits out all these values of where we would get long. So for this to be a bullish setup, this market needed to touch and that's this ATR validation price, 14, 3, 28, 75. So that definitely got up to there, right? That actually got here this first time. So I should already be long this, like I said. So you had the volume event, then you had this move up, here's your retest. This is, we have an actual trade for this move too. It's called the reversion trade because this happens so ridiculously. It's just ridiculous how often it happens. So we actually trade for this move. It's just a quick scalp where you get in at one ATR, two ATRs, sometimes three different markets have different ATRs that they usually go to and retest failure. So let me actually put this on before I, I'm sticking this trade. So I need to be long at 32. I can put on 10, I'm gonna round up 10 ES. That's basically right now. So give me a second, let me put this on. I think I said ES, 10 MNQ and that ES. All right, so that's working. So if this comes back up to that price, I will be long, like I said, I should have already been long. Then what happened after that? So I'm trading off this original that. Now we had another event come in right after that and the stop runs right before the number. So what I can do here, I can still fill on my original prices that I put in, but now I will draw this new zone and I can actually trail my stop off this new event. But all I'm doing here is, I cover this every week, but there's always new trades on there. So you wanna get this last price line on your chart. This one is easier because this is also the sweeps indicator. You can see these sweeps, which are the buy stops. So I'll show you another way. We'll draw the zone in another instance, but this, because I wanna get this drawn quickly. So this was a stop run. I use different colors for the volume events. So stops, I use yellow or white. So color that up just so I can look at the chart and know exactly what was going on. Okay, so I lose track of it. All right, so that's now that. So you can see the spike and the indicator that incorporated those prices in the spike. So that's an accurate zone. So now I'm gonna put this zone price in these prices, 14, 3, 23, 50 to down in 1975. So now watch what I do here. 14, 3, 3, 3, 5, 50. So I'm already getting long off that first zone is 32, now this is obviously gonna change, but I'm gonna now trail my stop. Actually, let's just look at this quickly. So if I were to get long off that original setup, which I'm going to, my stop would have been at 78, 14, 278. Now with this new zone, 23, 50, down now, what did I say, in 1975. Now I can move my stop up to 96, 25, if I fill. As long as this market doesn't get, as long as this new setup doesn't turn into a bear setup, how do I determine that? Well, if it gets down to the validation price, and this is basically just an ATR below the zone, that's how I determine if a setup is bullish or bearish. So as long as this doesn't get this new, this white zone doesn't get down to 99, 50, I can still go along this original setup and then I'm gonna trail my stop. So remember, I'm going long, I should already be long, but if it comes back, I'm gonna fill, which is about to happen right now. Then I'm gonna trail my stop to this newest setup. So instead of having my stop and ATR below this by my vent, I can now trail to this. And this is how you catch trending trades. And then on top of that, I can still trade this event as well. So I just filled on long on that. So let me put my stop in before I forget, because that happens about five times a day. Long, sorry, it's a 96 quarter. Put that in now. All right, so that's working. So now for this new zone, what do I need to see to make this a bullish setup for this volume event? I need to see 43.75. So if this market gets up to 43.75, I can do the same exact trade off this new event as I did on the original event. And if it does spike down, actually I should have a liquidity trade on here too. Hold on a second. Yeah, that's close enough. So we have distinct trades in my, obviously I just showed you the bar trade. S&P Iceberg sell ES 756 contracts. I should be a long electric trade too, because there is liquidity up here. We have a distinct pattern. You guys, to hear me talk about it every webinar, this is not resistance. This is not people that you should be like, oh, well, there's a lot of sellers up here. These are areas where the market will travel to eventually just because this is the bigger money and the bigger money forces the market into their orders. I know that for a fact, because that's what I used to do as a scalper. All day, every day, just play the games. Whip sawing traders and making them and then wait till it gets close to my liquidity. So like I always give you guys an example. I would put like, this is an ES. I'd put like a thousand here. Looking now to the fair market. We screwed around doing nothing. And then I would start buying. So I dip my toe in the water to see if there's any, but he willing to sell against me, there wasn't. Then I would just start buying a flurry of them. Everyone would jump on my coattails and I would run right into my offer waiting for my, and then I'd be out of the trade. So I'd make, you know, five, I mean, this was back and the ES would move three points in a day basically, but I would make, you know, two, three points on a thousand. That adds up if you do it, you know, 20 times a day. So that was the game and it's still the game. If you understand the game, it makes life a lot easier as a trader unknowing what to expect. All right, so that's just chopping around. If it comes back up there, I'll put on a liquidity trade too towards that liquidity, same price. That was at, what do I say, 30 quarter. I think I traded too big here on a second. ATR's spiking up a little bit. All right, so that's working. If it comes back to 90, 95, I'm out of the trade. Stop up. All right, let's see what's going on in ES here. Since everybody loves to trade ES, I'm not sure why. It's most rotational, annoying market probably out there. If you're doing yourself a disservice, if you're not looking at other markets, which we will cover today. So we had, so this is pretty significant, right? 1,500 sell-ice. So guys, this is the stuff that you don't see staring at bar charts or whatever chart you're looking at. You're not getting all the information. It's pretty important to know that big money just came in here and is trying to hold this market down with 1,500 contracts, right? Like that has an effect on price. It's the effect on price. So real time buying that is. Let's just see if this is accurate and we'll put our zones in and we'll trade this the exact same way. We'll look at the bigger picture here too to figure out the areas to see what different trading strategies that we have in my room. Again, we got about six or seven of them. It's actually probably eight. And if the parameters fit, we put the trade on. In seven minutes time, now we do get the DIA natural gas exchange. Full cost 100,000 BZF, only prior to our futures. So again, if that guy's talking over me, let me know. I have it down as low as I can on my computers, but it still picks it up at full blast for some reason. All right, so that's the current zone. 93.50 down to 91, the Selexic there, sorry. Current ATR in here is 4.60, which actually isn't bad. It's been really, really bad lately, but it's picking up a little bit. All right, so here's my prices. So I don't know what this volume setup is as far as bearish bullish until it touches a validation price. What's the validation price? It's one ATR away from the zone. That shows me, again, from watching so many of these, I've learned that if the market could push an ATR away from the volume event, it's telling you basically the odds, the probabilities of it going that way, right? So that's how I determine it. Remember, trading is nothing but probabilities. There's no sure thing in trading. It's just taking an edge and continuing to trade it. All right. NQ stops top sell NQ, 151 contracts. I stopped out of that, obviously, of NASDAQ, but I was able to, I'm not understanding that because I trailed my stop too. So according to this, I should only be, oh, this is why, this is exactly why. So I was doing a demonstration the other day. I had this at $1,000 risk. No wonder I was like, why is that more than I want to be risking? So first of all, this is based on the Apex trading accounts, right? So a couple of them, one was live. I blew that out last week on a bad day. We'll go over that and how you guys can learn from my mistakes, but these Apex accounts are way more aggressive. So I'm risking 10% on a trade, and actually this is wrong too. No wonder, all right, got smushed on that one. All right, so I'm risking 500 bucks a trade. If you are trading real money, you should not be risking 10% of your trading account on individual trades. You are going to blow out your account eventually, 100% guarantee, not a question. So the motion should be risking. So say if you do have a real $5,000 account, real money, should be risking 2% max on a trade. Unless you love the trade, you can trade double size, but the motion should be risking in a day is 6%. If you had 6% of your account size in a day, you should be shutting it down, done for the day. Things aren't making sense, which has been happening a lot lately on to the next day, right? So anyway, you should be risking 100 bucks. For the Apex account, I'm being more aggressive, so I'm risking 10%. So I didn't check this, I didn't see this, and I just lost more than 150% of that. I lost 750 on that trade, which I shouldn't know. But anyway, stopped out of that. So on the ES, risk is the most important thing, guys. If you don't have a trading account to trade, it doesn't matter how great of a trader you are, right? So risk is number one. If you have to control your risk, you're going to have a bad day. Take it from me. You're gonna have many bad days. It's not the end of the world. If you have an ad, you just keep putting the trades on for that particular day. You just say, uncle, you win. I'll see you tomorrow. It's easier said than done, I know, but trust me, you get your head kicked in after 100 times and you finally are gonna realize it. So I'm trying to help you realize it before that has to happen to your trading accounts. Take it from me. It will happen. So control your risk, monitor your risk. All right, so make this a short setup, 86.50, which I think we got to. So this isn't officially a short setup. This was an ATR below this volume of that. So I think all I have going here is the barf trade. Let's see, bigger picture just in the middle of nowhere. So these are my inflection zones I draw from my room every day. So these go back to really important areas and the market will continue to respect them. You know, I would have probably deleted this current zone here on this, but then it launched from here again. So these zones are drawn in the four important areas of trading, tops and bottoms of balance areas. Balance areas are just two-sided trade. I buy in nodes of balance areas. I don't usually actually draw that I buy in node because you can just eyeball it, but there's a lot of stuff that usually happens at the I buy in node. So I have zones there anyway. And then directional conviction, something like this. This is directional conviction. And then buying and selling tails. There's a selling tail and directional conviction. So you can see a lot happen in this zone and then we built balance here. There was a bunch of ice here, directional conviction came through there was sell ice launched through there the other day. And you can see this came back right to that sell ice area. This was like 45,000 sell ice during, or I'm sorry, 27,000 sell ice during the trading day, like all in one area. And you can see this market blew through it. And this is exactly where it stopped of a right in that zone. So I don't have a zone drawn there, but it came back to this inflection zone and it bounced. So anyway, bigger picture just in the middle of nowhere is just forming balance here. So the next move out of this balance is multi-day bounced for this week is probably gonna be your big move. I'm favoring that based on what's going on, but these markets have been irrational to say the least. And I mean, at least nonsensical to me. So I mean, it wouldn't surprise me we did that again. Like this day for last Friday was just insanity Thursday and Friday. Like NASDAQ was just ballistic. So NASDAQ basically moved 900 points in a couple of days, which is just nutty. Especially in this environment and with that ceiling talk and everything else that they come out with tape bombs every five minutes lately. But anyway, this was the move and just crazy. I started within the NVIDIA earnings and kept going. So the main thing you want to take from this as far as bigger picture like Russell and Dow are nowhere near looking like, I mean, they look completely different than NASDAQ, right? Like Russell is nowhere near its highs and recent highs and actually looks like it's about to break down, right? So this was the most current balance here. Broke out, held where it should have held. Basically the high volume node and now it's back below here. So this is looking like that. So something's gonna get either these other markets Dow and Russell are gonna lead and NASDAQ is gonna give back this entire move, which would not surprise me at all. Or NASDAQ is gonna pull all the markets back up. But I tried once and didn't work. So that's why I'm favoring that. Doesn't mean it's happening today, but that's my thesis and not right this second, right? So you can see this as it keeps bouncing, it's doing nothing. Keeps bouncing between these two inflection zones and building balance. But I'm ready to go. If this breaks this balance, I'm definitely short thesis. And I would meaning I'll still trade long setups, but if I get short setups, I can trade them bigger because it's matching my thesis. Until we send a debt ceiling bill to Biden's desk. So this is a short setup we're now waiting for a retest of this zone and he asks. The Schumacher. So the only little trade here I have, let's see if there's any liquidity below here. Yeah, there's liquidity. So this is a big level. Bonds from yesterday's 41.75. This, actually it was a little higher. Spot game of 41.75. It's moved a little lower today. So this is the area that we wanna watch. If I end up do going short here, if we go retest failure, I will go short the barf trade. That's blind ATR retest failure. Just a funny acronym to remember it by. And then I'll also take the lick trade. And I'm playing for this liquidity down here. So those are the two trades that I'm eyeballing there. If we get a retest failure. And then we also, like I said, we have a specific trade here where we take a reversion. I don't do these on the webinars. It's too hard for me to keep track of, but then this is on this spreadsheet. This is this trade. So the one ATR, because it's uncanny, how often these algos, when a market gets to an ATR away from the volume event, they snap it back to the volume event. And that is congruent with what I've said for four years of these webinars. Telling you guys, from my calculations of watching so many of these, this trade back to this zone is about 70%. What the gray area is, well, how far does it go before it gets back to the volume event? Kind of just like this. So sometimes it's one ATR, sometimes it's two, sometimes it's three, very rarely three inequities. But the majority of the time, the one ATR works like a charm, just like this one. There you go. So this is the trade. You would have been long at 86, 75. One QI size per cell and Q, 190 contrast. At 86, 75, you stop out at 81, 25, and then you're just playing back to the beginning of the zone, 90, 50. So you would have been long at 86, 75. Took barely any heat there. This is the reversion trade again. You would have been long right there. Your stop was down here. Back to the zone, you're out. So now here's your ATR, here's your retest. Now in failure, I will go short, barf and there. This is the consular play for these zones. So let's see those prices here. Now we go back to the position. So there's two different spreadsheets. This is the ATR reversion strategy. Again, this is all part of my trade room. And then this is the position strategy. So these are the position strategies that I'm taking and that's these. I don't have the descriptions. Those are for my room as well, but I'm talking you through them. All right, so the barf and the lick I will take here. So I can trade, I will short at 85.75, which is an ATR plus 15%. I've forced the market when it comes back to get outside the ATR to trade this. Guys, this is all Biden's doing. This isn't just me saying I want a rhythm. So I've learned the hard way how to trade these zones. I used to be like as soon as we broke out of the zone, I would get in and I'd put my stop right above it. And then I would just do one of these in a meaningless area just bossing around the bottom of it. 110 BCF, 110 BCF. And that would get stopped down. That would get stopped down. 107 BCF. So I finally learned, okay, for me to be proven wrong. So if this comes back here, first of all, I don't get in until it can come back because that helps me avoid one of those, right? So if this bounces off this monument and comes back, that's telling me something. Then if it can push outside of an ATR, that's telling me something. That means these elbows are being beaten. There's bigger forces at play. So that's where I would go short. Well, for me to be wrong, I don't just say I'm putting on like most of you guys do in here, which is the biggest mistake you can make trading. When I put on a short, I like to risk, I like to risk three points to try to make six. Like this area means nothing to the market. It means something to you. It doesn't mean anything in the market. So get your stops. What I do, again, might wanna listen to my experience, I get in outside the ATR and then I put my stop. If I'm gonna be wrong on this trade, I force the market to come back to the ATR, get through the volume event and push outside of an ATR the other side for me to be wrong. Yes, I have to risk more points. This is all, and it's fine. All you do is you're adjusting your size based on the size of the zone and the volatility. So it doesn't matter what, if I'm risking, so if I put this trade on, I'm risking 13 ES points. Well, with this volatility, that's not a lot. Like this can go 13, 26, 50, 52 points, whatever, based on this volatility, meaning the 13 points is based on the current ATR, the current volatility. So I don't change that, this changes. So if this market were to go crazy right now and the ATR goes up to 10, well now I'm risking 25 points, I'd still put the, it doesn't, I don't change anything. I still follow my risk rules with the points, I just change my size. So I went from basically trading seven down to four. This is what you change, not what you're risking. I don't go on this rant every single week. If you are putting static stops in with your trades, you are not going to be a profitable trader over the long run. I will promise you. All right, but there's something in NASDAQ here. So let me get these orders in. I gotta remember to put orders in before I start ranting. 85, 75, I can put on eight. That is the barf trade. All right, so those orders are working. I'll fill there. If I get filled, I stop out at 98, 75, based on this current volatility. I always want to make sure that, but it's actually, this has just popped up. So you want to keep changing this until you get filled. So 85, 25 now. We have the weekly EIA natural gas storage report. So the things I got then we don't have to sit there and keep guessing is just you plug the values in and it tells you exactly where to put the trade up. All right, so we're just waiting for that. So, you know, if this market ends up ripping from here, wouldn't surprise me because that's what it does every day. If it was like, well, then that short is going to be canceled. If this gets an ATR out of here out of this zone to the upside, then I cancel my short. I can't put on a long either because this has already qualified itself for a short, but I'm just done with that volume of it. Trust me, there's another one right around the corner. So, we'll wait there and let's see what happened here in NASDAQ. More cell ice here, 244. So let's draw this zone. Remember, so you want to draw these zones as soon as I was getting that before. You want the last price line on your chart. So right click these bubbles, configure visible components, click last price. Then you want to take the bubbles off to help you find the last price line. And then you want to draw all the prices that happen in this spike. So wherever the price went during this spike, you incorporate in your zone. So let's really start with spiking right about there. So I think that's right. I'm going to change the color here. It's grayish and colorblind, but close enough. So let's see if I got all the prices. Yes, so you see this, these prices fell on this spike. You should probably be out of Tony Friday out here. See where it started there and say, okay, price, price, price, all those interesting things happening Friday. So that's the official zone. Now we just go through the same routine, right? Put this own prices in the spreadsheet. 98, 298.50, down to 89.75 for the NASDAQ tab. And I'm going to have my, I'm very, very close to releasing my SI, new SI indicator course with all this new stuff that sweeps and everything else and just an updated version trading the ATR. But I'm also going to have a reversion, ATR reversion course as well. And you will get access to the spreadsheet to that if you don't have time to join the room or whatever. So you will have access to that in another way. I'm just getting a website built with the ATR spreadsheet in there. So that's coming up soon too. So what did I say, 89.75. Then I will also have a course that details all my trading strategies. And that'll be like a continuing education type of course, where every time I add a strategy, you'll get the new strategy. So it's like, because I'm going to be adding, that's just the tip of the iceberg. So these strategies for my room are just the tip of the iceberg for all the strategies I have, basically I might have that I've traded for years. So there's going to be many of these. The point is when I come out with that course, you will get these strategies, the exact, you know, examples, screenshots. But as I add new strategies, you'll have access to those. So it's like a one-time payment and you get access to all my strategies as I release them. And there's always new strategies, right? So we're like, we're coming up with, nothing's going on here. That's why I'm kind of digressing. But this market pulse, we're seeing huge things with this. Like there's going to be strategies based on market pulse. There's a lot, a lot in the hopper coming down the line. So speaking of which, just a good example here. You can see these buyers here got really aggressive. You can see it in two ways. You see it on the market pulse and you see it in the sweeps indicator, right? So they swept this. So this is a great example of all stop runs are sweeps, right? If you see a stop run, those are always sweeps, but not all sweeps are stop runs. So this was sweeps, you don't see any stopping. This was tiny, there was nothing here. So these sweeps, you can see there was 1,000 sweeps here. Those were not stop runs, right? So this is an important information. One, even if the sell ice wasn't here, so we know the big money tried to stop this and there's still holding right here in the middle of this zone. Somebody came in and swiped 1,000 of these and then you can see it on the market pulse indicator, right? So if this continues, well, then the sell ice is gonna be wrong, right? But if this holds, the buyers are wrong. So the point is, this is an important volume of that area with the market pulse and the sell ice that you're probably gonna get an outsize move out of this area and that's what we look for. That is the edge, right? And then how you trade these areas is that that's the key. So guys, this is what drives the markets. I don't care what indicator you have on your chart, it doesn't matter, doesn't mean anything unless there's real volume playing in those areas, right? Or no volume, right? Yeah, if you come to an important area and there's no volume there, that's a good place to fade too but the point is we were looking for these invested, trader invested areas because when it breaks out of here, somebody's wrong, somebody's got a puke, right? That's what we play, that's the edge, right? And it's all based on my personal experience as a scalper and how I used to react when I was loaded up. So all these setups are all are not hypothetical. They're actually real life occurrences that I went through as a trader, all these different trades and now I react to these volume areas and trading against the other big traders at the time. Back then you can see counterparty. So I can see exactly what they're doing. It was a big poker game every day. I would see the house, I'd know exactly how they would react. I could know how many they can put on, so on and so forth just from trading against them every day. I used to trade in and out all day long, literally 50,000 round turns a day. And that's when the ES was only trading 500,000. So I definitely have, I don't know anyone on the planet that has more volume experience as far as watching orders come through. So that's what this is all based off of. All right, so this looks like this is probably gonna be a bullish setup. So I've already tried to go long once here. Let's try it again. Make sure this is right. ATR is 23 now, 23.68. GoldEye Sice for 5GC, 152 contracts. So 22.25 is gonna make this official bullish setup. So we're still not there yet, but pretty close. Again, if this gets to 22.75, this is officially a bullish setup. And shows you those buyers, whoever swept this knew what they were doing, right? Then based on this area, I already... Bonsai Seisberg buys EB, 671 contracts. So something's going down. There's probably gonna be a big move here. Would you start here in bonds? Not so much gold, but bonds. I'm like, you start here in Dow and Russell, there's usually a bigger move happening. So I mean, this is smack dab in Middle East two zones. I usually will play in Izzy trade. I'm not playing any... Yeah, you can see this is right in the Middle East two zones. So this is probably forewarning you that now, with this big volume that's happening right in the middle of this, now this is finally gonna break out of here one way or another, and you're gonna get the outsize move. So now we just wait. So I'm not gonna trade Izzy trade. All I really got going here is the bar of trade. And there's the official ATR price, right? Let me get rid of this one here. So it's not confusing. There's enough stuff down here. All right, so per my rules, like this is not an aggressive trade, meaning the minute it breaks out of the zone, I'm not getting in. I'm waiting for the retest. Does it mean it has to retest? No, like I said, my calculations is about 70%. I'm gonna get back to the zone, right? I think it's back to the zone, retest failure, then I'm gonna law. Yes, I never, I don't think I've... Did I fill? I never filled on the yes trade. So this is exactly why I wait for retest failure. Ready? Let's stop here for a second. So this was the volume event. We already discussed this. There's your ATR. I was waiting for that, that. Well, guess what? That didn't happen. I avoided getting run over. So that's a good thing. And that's why I wait for the failure back out of there. Again, this is all from watching thousands of these. So you can, we say it every week, this is the science. There's no disputing there was 1500 cell ice there. How you trade these zones is the art. You may want to take my lead and kind of do what I'm doing at first. But as you watch the thousands of them yourself, you may say, hey, I like to do a certain thing when this happens and so on and so forth. So it doesn't, you don't have to follow my rules to a T, you can make it your own. But until you have thousands of them you've watched, you probably want to listen the way I trade them, right? And I, that's why I demand that. That didn't happen. I just avoided the short loss. All right, so shocker, shocker, the markets are ripping. Speaking of which, let's get some, let's get some torture going here, tick strike. So I usually, I know this gets very loud during the webinars, I like this. So if it gets too annoying, please let me know. Again, I have my internal volume down, but this software picks it up, so. But this is really important because I want to know, hey, is there something behind, here we go. Sorry, it's screwed up, let me close this out and bring it back. I want to know, hey, is there's a real buying behind this move? Well, what's the real buying? Well, first and foremost, the fang stocks, because these are the stocks that drive the indices that drive the futures. So these are the highest weighted stocks in the E-mini, or the S&P 500 and the NQ, or the Nasdaq 100, right? So you can see here, nothing's really going on here. I have these set at 11, so these meters go from one to 15. So anything 11 or above is serious buying or selling. You can see these aren't really going off right now. So that doesn't mean I just shorted it, but this is good information, right? And then that's what also the market poll, I don't know what the hell is going on here. This is very strange behavior for this. So now they're starting to buy them. All right, so again, I didn't trade that trade aggressively. I may miss this long on Nasdaq, and it is what it is. Like I said, there's another one right around the corner, but per my rules, I did not get all the, there were no other setups to trade here, as far as my trading strategies, right? So there's only a couple aggressive trades anyway. The slug, which is a stop run at the major lugs. This has already bounced off. You can see how powerful these lugs are. This is why we use them. Second most powerful thing I've ever seen in my trading career next to the book, man. Bounced off of the lug, bounced off of the lug. Come on, now it's probably added to the red, right? So what else are we seeing here? So yesterday's trade, market profile, we tried to come up with a thesis with this as well. So this was a prior market profile composite, meaning multiple day value arrays merged together, opened up, broke out of here, tried to get inside, closed outside. Again, opened up, closed outside, now it's back inside. So when markets get back into market profile composites, the tendency is to get to the other side. So it's just good information to know, okay, this should hold. A lot of times it'll come back, it'll tell us we actually have a trade. This is called the profiles encouraged trade pick. If it comes back here, I would take that long, but many times it'll retest the edge of it and then it'll go, right? So this is a good example of a thesis. So this should hold in here. If this all of a sudden turns around, gets back out, well, then I would definitely be having a bearer's thesis for the rest of the day, right? So right now everything looks like the blue lug held, blue lug held, now volume event was bullish and now this is in here. So the thesis should be short term, thesis should be long. Granted, like I said, this is still stuck right in the middle of this balance area. So it's about to break out though. So this is, you know, this could be a balance break out here. It sucks. S&P stops stocked by ES500 for contracts. Like I said, SI wasn't able to trade that first setup. There's another trade right around the corner and another set up right around the corner and here it is, hurts are going off and I don't know what market that is. I need to talk to the developer. So, you know, when these SI alerts go off, you can see where they were. Like there was that ES stop that just fired up. But these, if you put in your notification alerts, like if it touches a surprise, you have no idea what market it is. Like I forget. Like I'm watching 17 markets. So I'm like, okay, what market is that? So we're probably gonna have to listen to that bit until I figure out what market's going off here. All right, so these are the stops. You can see they're buying all these stocks. So again, this is tick strike. This is what I showed you guys. NQ stops stopped by NQ, 155 contracts. Just come to my website to that NQ. I was long earlier and they came back and stopped me out and now it's going, but that's trading. Just keep putting them on guys. That's the whole point. It's a probabilities. It stopped out. You see it again and you put it on again. I just didn't have the aggressive setup there. I would put that on again. I would not hesitate it, right? And that's where traders also make mistakes. They have the recency bias, you know, trading in the zone, which we allude to quite often. Recency bias is where you take like three, four, five losses in a row and then you're afraid to put on a trade. And then you sit there and you're like, oh, I don't know, man, this stuff's not working anymore. I think I have to move to a new strategy. And then the market rips 150 points and you're like, why didn't I put on a trade, right? Everybody on this webinar knows what I'm talking about. I gotta figure out where the hell this is coming from. Oh my, I definitely want to talk to them about that, the book we have devolvers and about getting some notifications for the market pulls as far as text because it's just not, you can't find what's with me or second guys because I can't concentrate with this thing going off and on and stuff. Ridiculous, I had to sit there and search. Oh, by the way, I'm short. We, what I gotta do, like I have no idea what market it is. That's firing off because I put it in. It could have been even from yesterday, right? Maybe it's, maybe it's, let's see. We're gonna have to put up with it so I can get these other zones drawn. I'm telling you, I'm gonna bitch about it the entire time. S&P Ice Iceberg sell ES762 contracts. All right, so now you guys sell ice coming in here too. Quickly, let's just look to see where we're at on this chart, see if we have any aggressive entries. This what, so this is an easy, this is an easy trade. So this is an aggressive entry off the stop run. Let me show you how I'm gonna do this. So quickly I gotta get this in 402.675 to 302.350. Or 4203.50, something like that. ATR is 5.0. Struggling with the spreadsheet today, hold on. So I know this is an aggressive entry, so I'm shorting ES out of that zone. We'll go back to that 97 quarter I can put on 7. Put that in, then I'm gonna show you what I'm gonna do with this myself. So in 10 minutes time now we do get the weekly EIA inventory's data, secret all inventories, and full class minus one spot 5 million, on the prior minus 12 spot 4, 5, 6 million, with a range of 2 million, 2 minus 5, or 1 or 7 million. We have to read the inventory's forecast, minus 1 spot 1 million, on the prior of minus 2 spot 05, 3 million, with data inventory forecast, 1 million, 20 prior of minus 0 spot 5, 6, 2 million, and crude cushing inventory, sorry, previous of 1 spot 7, 6, 2 million. So what I'm doing here, this isn't easy zone inflections, I'm gonna get this as easy trade. This is the trade that was live on Apex, because I'm doing each Apex account to make them live, and get the correct stats, bring them all into the 2 million. But then I blew it out last week, because I was trading too big, and I put exactly what I told you guys. So first of all, I'm trading 10% of the account size, which you should not be doing. And then, so my, I was in the, here I'll just show you real quick, since this is kind of just sitting in this zone. So I was doing this account. So the only thing I don't like, I love Apex, this thing is the best thing for you guys, if you're just learning, even practicing or whatever, or even if you don't wanna risk your own money, right? You do this, if you trade well, then you get funded. But the only thing I don't like is, this is not a $50,000 account, right? This is a, they say it's $50,000. Well, if I earn $50,000, that tells me I can lose $50,000. No, you can lose $2,500. So that's the only thing I don't like that. And all these trading, trading, funding, that are popping up everywhere now, they make it sound like you can trade that, you can, you can lose this. Anyway, my loss limit and I had a trailing drawdown, I was up $2,500 on the account, but I still had a trailing drawdown of $2,500. So last Monday or Tuesday, I let, the most I should be losing on this in the day is like $500 at most, that's even too much, right? Remember we said 6% of your account size? I lost $1,700. I had a series of four or five losing Izzy trades in a row that doesn't, for example, on Sundays, this stuff just is not working where you just say, cool. You can't lose that in a day. You just can't do it. If you're gonna blow, this is my example of earlier, you're going to blow out your account. And then guess what? Two more trades, I was blew out of the account. So it was painful, but it was more embarrassing than painful because all I do is trip to your account. Soybean Ice Iceberg sells, yes, 153 contracts. About risk management and then I do something like that. So it's like, it can happen, that's why you constantly have to monitor yourself because it can happen so easily. We call it going on tilt, right? You're like, screw this, okay, I'm already down 1,000, what the hell's another 500, right? I know everybody knows what I'm talking about. Trust me, it will catch you. You might get lucky a couple of times, a.k.a. negative reinforcement, where you're like down a, you guys have to fill that story 1,000 times too, where I had the lost land with my trading firm. Let me draw this while I'm telling you my stories. I had lost them from my trading firm every day. King Street trading was $100,000. So if I lost 100 grand, they'd turn me off. There's literally a risk manager that sat in his office. All he did was monitor the traders and shut them off if they had the risk limits, that was his job, right? Well, it got to the point, I'm just gonna merge both of these, by the way. We'll go over this in a second. Got to the point where I was doing so well, I would hit my $100,000 loss limit and then I would, you know, they wouldn't turn me on. They'd like cool down and then, you know, if you feel better in the afternoon, we'll think about giving you more, right? So then that would happen for a while. So I would cool down, come back in the afternoon, and then a lot of times I would make it all back, right? So that's negative reinforcement as far as your loss limit for the day because some days you make it back and then all of a sudden you start to ignore your loss limit and then you can absolutely smushed. So then I did that a few times and then they just stopped, not even stopping me at 100 grand. So a couple of times I was down like 2,300 grand, they would just be calling me. Of course I'm not gonna pick up the damn phone. Like I'm pissed, I'm like breaking screens and two different times in one month period I lost $800,000 in minutes, two times. So if my firm, it's my responsibility but they were also supposed to monitor me. If they would have stopped me or if I would have stopped myself, I'd have an extra, instead of losing 200 grand, I lost 1.6 million, right? So I'd have another 1.4 million dollars in my bank account if I just would have followed my risk loss for that day. So I can't stress enough, you don't have to lose millions of dollars till you figure it out. Listen to me. It's not a good story to tell. It was 20, what was that? It was almost 20 years ago, it was 2004. February and March of 2004 and it feels like it was yesterday. So you don't have to go through that pain is what I'm telling you. All right, so this new zone is here. I'm still gonna trade aggressively off this first zone to the short side and then we're gonna try all the stop to this new zone if I get filled on that. What was the price here? Not so 97 quarters. The aggressive entry here for this trade is 97 quarter. So let's touch it. I'm getting it immediately. For this trade, I'm not waiting for that because this is a very important area, aka inflection zone, Izzy, right here. And these are some of the best Izzy's when a market moves beeline straight into a zone. Very good chance for failure. Gotta be careful here because this is about, this is still at the top of this balance but this is about to break out of this balance. Granted, you got this guy here in this gap. Actually, I don't know why that I don't have a zone drawn here. There should be a zone right here where this market kept down. Hold on. That's my bed for my room. I would incorporate these tails. So tail, tail, tail. So you get a good example how to draw a zone here. You got those tails and then you have where this market gap down. So gaps are directional conviction, right? So this is the next zone up. So this Izzy zone, I would not trade aggressively. We have rules where if it's breaking out of balance, you don't want to be aggressive in Izzy zones. I still take the Izzy short but I would just like my conservative entry with the barf trade. I'll wait for ATR, retus failure. So that's dumb. I mean, if we get up there, I'm saying, but right now I will still take this Izzy short if this fails in here. So waiting for that. Let's see where we are in the lugs. This may even be a slug trade. Just yellow lug, but there is, what is this? What is this black thing? So yellow lug. This is actually gonna be the next, we're gonna have a playbook on this that's called mellow yellow. When you have a volume event at the yellow lug that's extreme standard deviation of VWAP. So you can see here, this is VWAP. This is one, one and a half, two. This is actually three standard deviation. The odds of this continuing are very low unless there's big money coming in. How do you know there's big money coming in? Well, one with the volume events, but then the main way is relative volume. So unless I see, so this relative volume is not bad. So this could continue. I still put the odds of a pullback because the algos will snap it back at these areas. But you can see here, this move over here was two times normal volume. So this is a relative volume chart based on the last 30 days, this exact time period. That's the relative volume I use. You're not getting the same, if you're using thicker swim, this is not the same relative volume. I do not like, I don't even have it up anymore on this chart, but I had it on here, here it is. So this is not the relative volume that I use. This relative volume is, and you can make it any period you want. This is a 60 period back look. Well, of course, like the open's always gonna be, it's usually seven, eight times normal. Does that mean it's seven, eight times normal? Like crazy, it's crazy? No, it's seven, eight times normal for the last 65 minute periods and you're going back overnight. So of course the open's gonna be there, right? So unless you know your, like I said, so I know normal is seven times. So unless you know your exact time periods for each day, like what they should be, this chart, this relative volume is meaningless to me. I don't use it. I use the exact time period relative volume on my, so I know for the last 30 days, this 745 or 945 time period, this is double the volume. That's important information to know, right? So my point is, you will usually fail at these areas unless you get some heavy relative volume coming in because these elbows take over and they're already winning right now, right? So again, we have a lug, which is powerful in itself, right? But you got three standard deviations and they start to revert it back to the mean. What else do we have here? Important area here, see this? Thesis wise, this is the most recent market profile composite. This is like a two or three day market profile composite. Opened up yesterday, blew right out of it, came back, retested exactly, failed again. Here we are again. Now it's trying to get inside here, just like NASDAQ, if this holds, then you expect the other side. It's gonna be very important what this does now and we have a vinyl on here too. If this fails back out of here, watch out below, right? So it's already tried. So this is actually a Profiles Encouraged trade too, where I will trade these volume and the volume of that happened right at the edge of this. I will trade that aggressively too. So I'll put on two different shorts here. Izzy's own and the Profiles Encourage, how many of them are Profiles Encouraged? I don't know, got it. So this is kind of a funny spin. This is a book by Janet Kennedy, Jr. Profiles Encourage, it fits the line with the market profiles and we name it pick, right? All these are meant to be memorable and funny just so you remember them. All right, so I'll short that as well. I forgot what price I'm shorting here. And remember, you wanna keep adjusting your ATR until you get filled because this will change. So this is already down to 4.83. So I was gonna short it 97 quarter. Now I put in my new ATR, it's up to 98, right? This is why this thing's such a godsend. So now I'm gonna move that to 98. That's the Izzy trade and then I'm gonna put out the Profiles Encourage trade. I'll short that as well. All right, so those are working. If I do get filled, then I'm gonna trail my stop based on this newest SEL-I setup here. And then I can trade the SEL-I setup as well. I wouldn't trade it aggressively because it's a back out of that zone, but that Izzy zone, but I could put it on the barf. So this is all stuff I just have in my head if it starts rolling my way, right? You're always coming up with different scenarios. I could also trade this new event alongside if this holds, this is that SEL-I zone. And we do this, this, this, well, then I can trade that. And then that short off of this zone would be disqualified. So now you just wait, right? I have no idea what's gonna happen here. Nobody knows what's gonna happen here, right? So you sit here and you wait. I have my rules and how they should react to these zones and then we will trade them accordingly. I'm still waiting for something and actually just came out, didn't it? The crude number just came out, I think. But anyway, you bet your bottom dollar or crude's out of, they did lighten up a little bit but you can see this down here. This is not, oh wow, look at all those buyers, I'm gonna go long. Now it's all these buyers, this is the game that we just talked about earlier. They will push this market into these orders. Does that mean it's happening right this second? No, it can go up another 100 ticks before it happens but I will bet you, again, anyone wanna take the bet around the Gulf in Scottsdale, I will bet you this market hits this liquidity by the end of the day. Anyone wanna take that bet? Throw it in the YouTube room. Speaking of which, let's see if you guys got any questions. All right, Captain Price is quite active in here. So the first thing, I'll go back to these earlier questions but the first thing that I see here, the biggest trader fallacy that there is. And Captain Price, you're gonna get a little bit, I give verbal lashes in my trade room every day and they're meant to help traders. They're half joking, half not but they're to kind of put traders on the spot and make them learn because you're not gonna learn by me kissing your ass. You're gonna learn by me telling you that is incorrect, you're making mistakes. So when I read, this is exact, again, out of your 85 texture posted here, you said, so no shorting for me, thinking it still can get higher. So is thinking, is that part of your trade plan? Do you have a trade plan mapped out where you say I put on trades based on what I'm thinking or do you use areas in actual volume events or whatever you're using or do you just think that's the biggest, that's the third biggest problem with traders, right? So a good example last week, you got a verbal lashing for it. There was a volume event like this and it gets set up as a short and the guy's like, well, first of all, there was liquidity above just above it. So I can't remember who said it, I won't embarrass him again. No, didn't embarrass him, but I put him on the spot and he said, I'm not putting on this trade, there's liquidity above and that's not a bad assumption. If you have that built in your trade plan, that's fine, but you gotta do it every time. That means you can never put on a trade if there's liquidity above, short, so on and so forth, right? So the other thing is like, this market's going crazy. I think we're still gonna go up. What the hell does that mean? So the perfect example, camera price, if you think it can still go higher than you should bet your house, put on longs right now, put on 500 ES, bet your house and put it on and go for a walk and come back and see it's higher. Why don't you do that? Because you don't know what's gonna happen. That's the whole point. So this thinking thing, that's why you need rigid rules in your trading. It's not what you think, because you don't know. Nobody knows. What you can control are your risk rules, right? Anything can happen. You don't need to know nor do you know what's gonna happen next in order to make money. So I just, every time I see something, I think this is gonna happen. Okay, well then, load the boat long. If you think it's gonna happen, why aren't you trading long, right? I mean, I'm talking your entire network. If you're not putting on shorts because you think something's gonna happen, that means you know it's going up. So put on your entire net worth. Do you see what I'm getting at here? You don't know what's gonna happen. Nobody does. You know how to create, be a casino, right? So if you go to trading and this is all is directly out of trading zone. Yeah, I've added my own stuff in here, but this is out of trading zone. Do your exercise where you pick any market. You choose a set of variables that define the edge. Mine is the SI indicator volume events and setups, right? And then trade the variables. Define the variables for your edge and they have to be absolutely precise. And you see what I'm doing with these volume setups, right? With the ATR and it has to do this, it has to retest, it has to fail. Those are all rules of my trades. If you trade in here thinking something's gonna happen, you are never, ever, ever, ever going to make money consistently. I will put my life on it, okay? So stop thinking and start having trade plans and following your rules. So that is my, gonna be my main rant for today, I think, unless someone else puts something ridiculous in the trade room or in the chat. So hopefully that makes sense, Captain Price, but you are, you are, that is, you're headed for a world of hurt over your trading career. If you're trading, if you're not putting on trades because you think something's gonna happen. So don't get me wrong, right? Making something isn't gonna happen could be a thesis, right? I have thesis all day long, that's the whole point, but it doesn't mean I don't put on trades the opposite way, right? So, you know, my thesis, like, for instance, here we go, like my thesis right now and I'm not even looking at the bigger picture stuff, I'm looking at this liquidity. My thesis for crude, it's gonna hit this liquidity today, right? Crude stops stocked by CL, 255 contracts. See, I told you there's a, there's a camera in my office of looking over my trading. I tell, I'm telling you, right? When I mentioned that thing, fire out the stocks, I'm just kidding. So the point is, I think this is gonna happen. Does that mean I don't take longs? No, I'm a day trader. If I get my, like right now, if this volume turns out to be a long setup, I'm taking along, even though I think it's gonna get down here. So how do you take advantage of something you think, AKA a thesis, right? Well, when you get a bearer setup, then you trade it bigger. But it doesn't mean you ignore your longs because, I mean, I don't, because I'm a day trader. You care, there's nothing wrong with eliminating one side of the market where you say, okay, this market's breaking out in a huge balance and I think it's going higher. I'm not gonna take shorts. Okay, that's fine. You don't know what's gonna happen, but if you wanna trade that way, but you gotta do it every day. It's not one day you don't do it, the other day you do, you see what I'm saying? So like this breaks out of here. You're right here, you're like, you know what? This is breaking out of a week long balance. I'm not taking shorts here. Okay, I'm okay with that, right? But that's not just, that's a rule. You have a rule of your trading. That's not thinking, well, I think this is gonna do this, right? Again, anytime you catch yourself doing it, you're gonna catch, I catch myself doing it all the time. But anytime you think it, it's like, okay, well, if I think that's gonna happen, why am I not betting my house, putting on trades right now, betting my house? Because you don't know, right? So come up with a set of rules with a defined edge and follow them and you will be a successful trader over the long run if you stay consistent. All right, let's draw this because I do definitely wanna short crude what I was just talking about, because my thesis is, so if this turns into a short setup, I'm gonna trade it bigger because my thinking or my thesis is short just purely based on that liquidity flow because I've watched it happen about 5 million times. The big money always gets their way. Doesn't mean it's gonna happen, like I said, right this second, but round of golfs that it does by the end of the day. Sometimes it's not even by the end of the day, it'll take a couple of days too, but I will bet, so when it's about a round of golf, if we hit that liquidity today, the bet's on the table. I'll give you my upside where I'm wrong versus the downside, if you wanna make the bet. 69, 17 down to 69, 11 is your zone. Your tier on here is 24.244. So that means it's basically rotating 25 ticks every five minutes. All right, so let's look at bigger picture first see if we have any aggressive setups here. This is a nizzy zone, so this isn't just like the yes where I still short aggressively. Here we go, what happened here? Sewing tail, sewing tail, sewing tail, rejected, right? It's not ridiculous, but it's still a nizzy zone. And then, oh, I take that back. This is ridiculous because this was where this market gap down about $5, right? So this is where it closed this day, and this is where it opened. So this zone is very important. So a gap down and you can see, so you have that zone drawn originally and then look where it failed, comes back failed, came back failed. That's why, because this was a very important area and that's why we draw these zones. So this is right back into the zone. Stop run, I already wanna be short. I'm gonna be short, I'm gonna be short aggressively, but I'm gonna trade double size on this as well. And I'm gonna put on the lick trade and potentially the bark trade too. So while I chirp, I'm missing the trade, pretty usual, hold on. So my aggressive entry here, remember I'm not waiting for retest even though it already looks like it's ATR retest. I'm getting in aggressively. I will short at 83 and I'm putting on eight, but I bear, remember I said, my thesis is short, so I'm putting on 16 here. I'm short, weak too. I might wanna put my stop in there, I forgot about that. Well, I'm just trying to find my crude, what did I say, eight. So I'm gonna put on 16, trading double size here. This is the easy account. So if this comes back to 83, I'm short. So that's trade number one. See what else we have here. So let's get down to the validation price. First of all, I can put on other trades. That validation price was 87. I don't think it got to 87 for the ATR retest trade. Trades got down to 90. So this is still not officially a bearish setup. So you notice like, I'm bearish, it's short term. The stop run I know is not usually really buying. Did you see me just jump in a short? No, I'm forcing this market to push out of the ATR, plus 15%, then I'll go short. And that's at 83 price, right? Let's just see one more thing. I wanna see if there's a profiles and courage trade here as well. And I'll answer some questions since the market's dying as usual. Yeah, this is a profiles and courage trade too. So this was yesterday's trade, the day before, but this was from a prior. This is a prior that still looks relevant. This is a prior market profile composite high. I'll take the profiles and courage trade there too. So if this market moves out, I'm gonna short both of them. But, and then it's still buying this thing. If this gets to 69.41, those shorts are disqualified. What would that be? Well, that's an ATR above this zone. That's how I judge. This gets to 69.41, these are disqualified. Then I can actually play along. Just like I said, I think we're going lower by the end of the day because of that liquidity. Does that mean I wouldn't play along? Nope, I will still play along because I'm a day trader. So we'll let that play out. That might just rip and that's fine. And I'm not short this shed either, right? You see, I'm avoiding, guys avoiding losses is just as good as putting on winners because if you have a losses, you're gonna take a winner plus another one to get it back most of the time, right? So I have my shorts working in the ass, but guess what? That's not, and we just got up to 41 and crude pretty close. You can see here, this is a great thing about Tickstrack. I already knew that was happening because of the Tickstrack firing off here. The market pulse should be firing off too. Let's see what the market pulse looks like here. And then I gotta cancel my short. It looks like I'm gonna be canceling my shorts in. The market pulse isn't going crazy. But anyway, so now those shorts I just put in, they're de-queued. It's short for disqualified, right? I had them resting, I was gonna go short that. Did I go short? No, I was waiting for the ATR, pushed an ATR buffer. This is now a bullish setup. So now I'm gonna cancel those shorts. I'm not gonna go short. I should have just had the Izzy working. Now I will go long. Net gas, ice, iceberg, cell, NG, 160 for contracts. Okay, that's two. I actually had a nice short in there earlier. Look at this. I'm gonna put an alert here if this retest is sewn and then I'm gonna go long. If it goes retest failure. This is still in the Izzy zone, but I'll go long the barf. The barf trade is always in play. All right, so what was the validation price for this? My shorts still working in this ES, but remember we set off this new event. If this new event turned bearish or bullish, I'm gonna cancel it. My new, my first trade was gonna be a short off of that. Well, now you got the cell ice that was the most recent. This gets the ATR above here. Long and my shorts are canceled. Let's just put that zone in. Now, 4204.50 down to 4200. Consider buying the Bejesus out of the city as usual. I'm sure it's some tape bomb. I'm sure McCarthy just had lunch, so let's buy it. It's just every time the guy, there's never any news or just talking about stuff and the thing just, it's just ridiculous this whole week. All right, 4.76. So if this market off of that zone gets up to nine quarter then my shorts are disqualified and so this is a long setup. Now I gotta cancel my ES shorts that I was gonna put on, never put them on, put my rules, avoided loss again, going crazy. Everything's okay in the world. Let's just keep buying them, buying them, buying them. This is breaking out of this balance as well. Boom, pay attention to that. Weak lung balance breaking out. It's also noteworthy. It did rip right through that zone. This was an important zone that it failed a couple of times here, tail, tail, balance, break out. So now if this comes back, I don't have any aggressive trades here. I'm not trading this aggressively, but if this would now retest, again, this is black eyes, this black zone, that's so nice, retest failure, not going long. Is there a chance I missed this? Like I missed the NASX trade? Sure is, but that's fine. There's another setup right around the corner. If it doesn't fit my rules, AKA I'm not trading off what I feel, then I don't put the trade on. But there's a very good chance this comes back and retest this zone. So we will wait on that. All right, let's see if there's any questions in here. I know there was some earlier on Apex, let's start from the beginning. When you look at funded account risk, are you basing your risk on max drawdown or actual account dollars? We need to be doing an max drawdown, right? So when you're doing these Apex accounts, again, guys, I'm telling you, there's no reason in my mind, I mean, you can trade your own money, absolutely. But if you're just learning or you're not in a good place trading or whatever, if you wanna practice, a lot of guys say practice, not a game, practice. It's Alan Iverson, by the way. A lot of guys are like, well, that doesn't feel the same to me. If I feel like it's a semi-count, well, this is not, you're still putting money on the line, right? So it's not that you put this and it's 80% off, put this code in and you get 80% off. So it's like 64 bucks, right? Yeah, it's not a lot of money, but it still sucks. Like do you just want, you open your window and throw 64 bucks out your window? No, it's meaningful. So you still have money on the line, so you're not gonna be an asshole with your trading part of my language, right? Or you may be a little bit more because it's only 64 bucks. Only I'm doing air quotes, 64 bucks is a lot of money for a lot of people, including me, right? I don't like throwing away money. My point is, you still have skin in the game, right? So you can practice, you got, and if you get crushed, if you lose this amount, right? You got, so with this one, so this is what most of them are, right? All of them now, I had the live one was on that, someone talked me into doing that one. I'm not gonna do that one again. I'm doing the bigger one. So the goal is you gotta make nine grand before you lose five. Well, on the tryouts, this is trailing. So you can be up seven K, right? And then have a draw down, which happens, this happened the first three times I did this, you draw down five K, you're still up two K, overall, you're out of the account because you drew down $5,000 as a trailing threshold. The live accounts are different where the initial five K, so say you go up five K, well then this, so you start at 150, sorry for my drawing here, you start, and then if you lose down, if you go back to 145, you're out, right? This is a live account now. If I get up to 155, it moves as trails, so now it's 150. If I come back to 150, I'm still out. But then if you keep going, say you get up to 160, 165, well then it's not 5,000, you gotta come all the way back to 150 to be out of the trade, I'd be out of the account. See what I'm saying, that's the difference between, but with the Apex trailing, the tryouts, it's always trailing. So you can be up 8,500 bucks, $500 from your profit goal, give back five grand, you're still up 3,500 bucks, you're out of the account. That's what sucks and that's what's hard and it makes you really, really work on your risk control. But the point, the question is, do I risk, I am risking a percentage of that. I'm risking 10% of that per trade, so 500 bucks a trade, that's still too much. If you go live, as I learned the hard way last week, you don't wanna be risking 10% of this, bring it back down to 2%, you may say, well that's nothing, man, I'm just gonna take me forever to build it up. Well then open multiple, you can open like 20 of these, I think. And then they got on Ninja Trader, you can have trade copy or put some all in at one time, right? So that's my recommendation, but there is just the great thing about this, you can work on your trading, say you wanna learn my system, you come to my room, you're like, I'm hell bent, I know this stuff works, I watch it every week, I wanna learn this. Fine, don't learn with your real money or your own money, learn with this. Don't risk your mortgage on learning what you're doing. Do this, and then guess what? If you do well, then you're funded. Now you got a $5,000 account. It's not a ton, but it's not bad, and then say you do four more. Now you got, say you do them all for the same strategy, and now you got a $20,000 account. And you just put them all at the same time, right? You know, unless you're just flush with cash, you don't need to risk your own money. I've been using this thing for a year and a half now. That's why I put my name on it. There's a bunch of them out there. There's a bunch of them, oh, by the way, shocker, shocker, did I mention something about the 70% rule where it comes back and retest these zones? So if this retest fails. Stopped by CL, 295 contracts. It's still in the Izzy zone for a couple of seconds. I forgot what I was just ranting on there, but there's just no reason not to, you know, if you're learning or whatever, oh, I was ranting about these other ones, right? Most of these trading, these funding companies, they know 95% of traders lose money. So it's a great business model, right? Hey, let's let this up so they just fail and they keep paying us the fee, right? They make sense, not saying it's ethical, but it makes sense. These guys actually want funded traders. So I did one, I'm not gonna name the names, back in 2013 when I really started to like, it was the end of the road for me trading. Like I had to get out of trading because I couldn't make money. So I did one, qualified. Oh, now you gotta do the live, the live combine, did that one. Oh, now you gotta do the secret, the super secret squirrel live trading, blah, blah, blah. It's like, I even wrote to me, you guys don't want to fund traders. You want to take their money. Like you don't, you have no intention of actually really funding traders. And so I'd never used them again. Back to Apex, they want to fund traders. These right here, how much they've paid out. This is not, you know, if people weren't getting paid, you know in about two seconds nowadays. Of course there's always gonna be a disgruntled trader that broke the rules, like, oh, this is not, trust me. This thing would not be around for a year and a half. And I would not be using it or touting it if they didn't pay and do exactly what they said they were gonna do. And that's why I did it myself. Before I even mentioned it to my trade room, I tried it myself. I said, I'm gonna qualify because I damn well better qualify as a professional trader, right? I'm gonna qualify and then I'm gonna let them know, hey guys, they gave me the account. Hey guys, I got paid, so on and so forth. So that's the one I put my name on. You can use whatever one you want. But I'm telling you, I've tried a couple of them or years back and I've looked at other ones. This is the best one by far that I've seen. So you can do what you want with it, just like every other one of my rules I'm trying to teach you guys what I do so you don't have to go through the pain yourself. All right, I feel like I'm talking a whole lot. So that's that, sorry I went on that tangent but there was a question on that. Kept in price a lot, it's excellent here, dude. What are you doing? You bored? Says, hey, how can I do that? I don't know what you're talking about, S-U-S, CamJazz, what do you think of Apple? When can we short it? CamJazz or CSNJazz, come on. When can we short it? Well, if I knew that, I would just like I said, I take my house, get a mortgage, vet it all on a short and then go to the desert island with Billy Ray Valentine from Trading Places. I don't know anything. I know what you look for. One, I don't take trade stocks anymore, right? So I would not be helpful there. What you can do, I did trade stocks beginning. I have actually a course on my website. It was geared towards stocks because when I got back in the business, I was so jaded from being a million, multi-million dollar futures trader to zero. So I said, I'm not trading futures anymore. So on my website, this actual in my store, so my main course, and there's a new one coming out, but again, if you remember my trade, when you get a new one for free, if you buy this one, if you want to fast track your money. This course here is based on my stock trading, right? So this is one of my setups that I would lose my playbook for trading stocks. So if you want to learn what I did there, that's all yours. But back to these. So this one is mine. This is my former partner who's an expert at trading the antnazac. This is still relevant. I don't use his strategies, but this is great for scalping because all you guys love to scalp. That was his. He was an absolute expert trading the NQ. And then he used this sweep show that would help him judge. Like if the ES was going to break through the area. So these are these two courses are by him. These two courses are by me and I've got four more coming up. So anyway, I don't trade stocks. And if I knew exactly what was going to happen, then I would probably be on an island right now. Desert Island. Just waiting for the screen test of this. So it's never going to help. Actually, before I get into the questions, I don't want to miss because I think we're still in an easy zone here in Crude. I still want to short it. I didn't take that first short, right? But here's another setup, right there. They're still buying it. Crap, out of this, let's get this up so I can see what I'm doing. But do you see, like my thesis was short just for that liquidity. Did you see me put on a short because I thought something was going to happen? Sure didn't. I'll put on a short when my trade parameters execute to take the short. All right, so this zone is 69.75 to 69.67. We're at the Crude. Tara's got to be elevated now in here. 26.269, almost 27 now. All right, so to make this a long setup it needs to touch 70.02. So that's another long setup. So I can't go short this setup either. And I'll go long. I'm watching this stream, it's way too late. You guys are going to hear that until it's live, so it doesn't really matter. But anyway, I'll go long on that. If that happens, I'll keep an eye on that. Let's put an order there if that retest. Left click, notifications, enable notifications. All right, let's get to the other questions here. Could you talk about the way you use ATR? Ashka, I've been talking about the way to use ATR this entire webinar. I use it to judge the volatility and we judge it how it reacts out of these zones. If it's able to push an ATR, a five minute ATR outside the volume event, then it shows me that the volume event is bullish, like this one. And then I'll wait for a retest and then I'll get in once it clears an ATR. But that's all we've been talking about this whole webinar, if you haven't seen it, then there will be a webinar replay. Just go to Bookmap YouTube and you can see it'll be posted shortly. Okay, in the Phillips internal volumes, currently spiking both S&P and Q. Yes, we talked about the relative volume was, well, I didn't see that in Q, and Q was not spiking relative volume wise. Not as much as a yes anyway. It's elevated, but it's not crazy. Hey, they're still buying crude. That's trading like something's out. That's what it's trading like. Anyway, there was a, you know, there was an elevated here that we talked about, but this is just basically back to normal here. There was a little bit there at the same time here, but I'm not seeing anything in Q, as far as the what I look as far as relative volume or elevated volume. Speaking of which, let's see if we have new looks here. That was actually gonna be a slug trade too, but I didn't take that. I didn't see this, but I wouldn't take it. Let's see if we have new looks. Yep, new looks. So that's bullish in itself, right? So not only do we use these lugs as support and resistance areas, which they're absolutely crazy, incredible. When you form new lugs, see this, this form, as long as the market could hold the new directional yellow prior red, you expect blue. Well, that happened right away. Same thing here. Form new lugs. If it holds a prior directional yellow, I'm sorry, directional yellow prior red, you expect blue. That looks like it's going straight there. It may come back, but you expect that. If this now comes back and fails this area, then you expect, did I say blue? You expect red. If it fails the area, then you expect blue. This is how you can come up with a thesis just based on the looks. Then you add this stuff to your thesis market profile and then your structure stuff. And then you have yourself a very good educated guess. I guess I'm doing your quotes on what's gonna happen. I still don't just trade based on my guess or feeling I wait for my line events and my rules. Futures anyway. All right, let's see what else. Any other questions, throw them in guys. I have buff here, I'm not buff pretty soon. So back to that, I was reading the captain price. Can't risk being able to count on that. So I'm gonna think about the prop stuff. This is just like having a trading firm back you. You'll be amazed at how clear your mind is if you're not worried about losing your car payment and your mortgage and having your wife pummel you, right? You would be amazed. So this is just like trading for a trading room. That's why I took off. Do you think about I was trading on my own, I wouldn't become a multi-million dollar trader? No, if I lost, yeah, it hurt. Yeah, it cost me money. It doesn't cost me money right then. Like I said, my first day trading ever, I lost $2,500 trading one lot, which is almost impossible to do by the way, scalping. I was about to get fired, you guys all know that story. But anyway, it wasn't 2,500 bucks out of my pocket. Not that I was trying to lose it and it definitely is out of my pocket as I make money but I didn't have to fork over 2,500 bucks. So the point is, if you're trading with this, even when you go live with these accounts, yeah, if you blow them out like last week or blow it out of the account, it sucks, it hurts, but it's not like devastating. It's like, oh my God, what am I gonna do? I'm like, what am I gonna tell my wife? Hey, we gotta move to a cardboard box, right? So it's just, it's like having a trader from back here is what it is. That was a bounce off of your zone. Yeah, which zone? It didn't bounce off on your zone. I went right through actually, and that's the information itself. Like we talk about blowing through lead with levels, this is the same kind of information, right? When markets blow right through these busy zones, that's telling you something's up, if it doesn't pause. This one could try to pause you, but it still was pretty much sure. So this is the next zone up, this is the next important zone. This is, sorry for the color, hold on. You've got this gap down, and this is basically the high line out of this balance area. So we get up, it's actually a little higher than that, but I would take a aggressive short there too. So we'll see. All right, any other questions? Throw them in guys, otherwise. Let's just see what's going on here. Quickly, what I just show you guys some examples, this was pre-market, I took this NG short. I think I'm still, I might have stopped out of the rest of it. This was pre-market, this was the number obviously, but this was pre-market here, just to give you guys the information. So I took the barf trade here. You rarely see this kind of size in especially pre-market, 328 by ICE, NG. And this is another example why you're doing yourself a disservice if you just steered an ESL day. These work in every futures market, if you know the thresholds. It's the same patterns over and over. ATR, retest failure, I got short. Held it to the blue lug, I had this volume event first. So I trailed my stop, remember when we talked about trailing stops, so my stop was up here, I moved it to this volume event. I got out of one at the blue lug, and I'll show you that at the time. And I held one because it was kind of just sitting there. And then it didn't matter because it came back and stopped out. So this was, I gotta refresh these lugs, but this was at the time. So I got short, it was probably, I think it was a 40 tick winner. So the setup was up here. And I got out when I got there, did bounce, did bounce, and then got lower. But then the volume, that volume event came and I trailed my stop to that and it popped above everything that stopped out, but it was still a very nice trade. Stopped out for a profit. Let's refresh these lugs. See what they look like now. So this is a good example. Thesis wise for natural gas, right? We talk about all the other theses. You can use them with lugs, watch the webinar I did with her. It's all over this room, it's in my tree room too. So this should hold directional yellow, prior blue. If you're gonna expect that, if it violates these two and gets higher, then you expect that. That's how you can come up with thesis with the lugs. These things are incredible guys, I keep telling you. Try them out. She's got a three day trial, you don't have to put any money down. You will see for yourself. I use indicator preference stuff. Foot print is not, then I'll be anywhere near it. It's good to use in important areas, but not, trust me. I tried training with, that's why I got knocked out of the business and that's why marketdelta.com is no longer in business because the footprint is not, it's helpful obviously because it's, anything with volume is helpful. But it's not, it's not like distinct things like you get with these messiah vents. And trust me, I've seen it all. All right, Captain Price, you are served. Did you have a lot of caffeine in there or something? What in the, how do you have time to trade with all these tests? All right, so I guess it's just Captain Price texting in there with himself. So he has any other questions and the last chance to ask. Otherwise I'm waiting for a retest of this zone for, he asked to go long. You know, I don't, I think I missed a trade in here. I missed the setup in here earlier on. I just lost track of NAS back here. I think there was a stop run right around here. Yeah, so this is barely threshold. What you can see, I'm not gonna draw this right now, but that's what it did. That's what it always does, feels like. There's your zone, there's your move away. Here's your retest, failure. So I would have been long and I missed this trade, right? That's what happens. You gotta be, I mean, I'm watching so many markets, but you know, I missed this trade. This was a threshold 150, there's your stop run, there's your ATR and move back, retest at the top of the zone, move away. Gold stops stopped by GC, 283 contracts. All right, something in gold, I'm not gonna draw this long because I got to hop off here, but let's just see where we're at. This is a NISI zone, I will short this aggressively. If this, you can see we're right in this important zone. This is right where this market ripped. That's what you call directional conviction. You're ripped through it, first retest back, I'd still short that, I'd still will short it. So I'll do a little saving. I've been doing this entire webinar. I'll draw the zone, put my prices in my spreadsheet. If it breaks down below here, this is the volume I'm at right here. We didn't really get into market pulse today, but we talk about a lot of my room. Room's got a lot of value guys, and I'm just pushing it, because it's my room. Like there's a lot of stuff we're doing in there, a lot of capable traders. So you can see this, this is part of the stop run, but here's a perfect example where there was one, this is stop run two, let's see, now this was a stop run two. But sometimes you'll get these spikes, which are really important without stop runs. All right, but anyway, I'll draw the zone and trade it to the short side. Other than that, no webinar next week, I'm gonna be out of town. So I will be back the following Thursday. Again, I do this twice a day in my trade room, morning and afternoon, so I do this exact thing in my trade room if you wanna come and learn what really moves markets. All right, now I'm still waiting for a retest of the zone here and crew it, and I just wanna see if it got through this busy zone here. Yeah, it's well through this. So this is the next easy zone up, and this is where this directional convenience starts. So this would be a great short, multiple reasons, one balance area, low directional conviction, and this would be a straight move into the zone. That will be a great short. If I get the volume of that, and it fails. So anyone 24 a center, it's a zone, it's not exact prices, it's right in this area. And by the way, I get these zones every day in my trading room as well for all, for 17 different products. So you know, you don't even have to draw them yourself. That's what a great guy I am. All right guys, I have a great weekend. I'll see you a week from Thursday.
