 everyone and welcome. This is Melissa Armo with the Stock Swoosh and this is the Stock Swoosh Show Live Trading Room Advanced Trader Tracking. This is year to date from January through April 17th, 120,890 and this is an advanced trader risk. I'm gonna go over that in a little bit here as well. If you'd like more information you can email me at Melissa at thestockswoosh.com or call me at 929-3200 Gap. Feel free to follow me on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube or Skype. So right now earning season is fully underway. It's about one week into it and so it's really a great time to trade. A lot of big names coming up in the next month and a half to almost two months. Apple, Netflix are already reported but you have Apple yet to report Amazon, Google. A lot of big names that are coming up soon and this obviously makes for really solid good trades in the market when you have earning season because stocks move. They have big moves during earning season and that is what we're looking for. As an active trader person you are looking to get a big move each day. Again this isn't for long-term investing. This is I call it chunking it out. You chunk it, chunk it, chunk it. Were you taking a amount of money out of the market and you pull it out daily into a move? Again the move could be a long or it could be a short. So these are all the trades called in the live trading room. January off at the beginning of the year. Spile with first trade was a loser. Second retake nice winner 4,200. 9th through the 11th closed I was sick. 14th was Lulu. That was a good gap. Netflix another nice gap in the 15th. 17th Sig was a loser in the first trade and then two nice winners in Sig second and third trade. AXP was a loser on the 18th. QQQs was a winner on the 18th.

Then it was a winner and the spy was a winner. So that was a very active day. You'll find here most of the days I'm trying to focus on just one ticker symbol a day. So if we hit it right out of the gate I'm usually only just focusing on that one ticker symbol on that one trade. So the best days usually are what? One or two trades at the most and you'll see that when you follow me in the room. We trade usually between 9.30 and 10 a.m. Eastern time. January 31st. X was a winner. QQs was a winner.

Ran up really almost the entire day. And then off on the 18th and the market closed the 19th. So let's just talk here a little bit about what is an advanced trader risk around 2000. Some are a little less. Some are a little more. Do you have to risk an advanced trader risk no. And I want to make this point very clear because I want people to see the potential that they could achieve with trading. Again I started out in 2008. It's 2019. So I've been doing this for 11 years. So I mean what I want people to see is the potential for the time and the energy and effort that the money that they can make if they put into this. The beauty is if people kind of learn my system they can learn it in a two day class. I make it easy for you if you come to me because you learn what it took me three years to put together my system the golden gap system in a weekend. And so it doesn't have to take you 11 years to get to this point. But I do think it's important for people to know that they do not have to wait until they have the money available to risk $2,000 in a trade to start trading. You don't need to risk $2,000. There is no minimum requirement risk. Excuse me. You could risk $50 in a trade if you wanted to for these day trades. Now there is a minimum to open up a trading account. Some prop places require $2,500 on the low end with a 10 to 1 margin. Then you have retail places require $25,000. It depends really on the broker. But there isn't a minimum and there isn't even a maximum amount that you risk per trade. If you can afford to make $100 a day, guess what? That's $500 a week and that's two grand a month. And most people are losing money in the market. So again I need to point this out because for some reason this this has escaped many people. You do not have to risk an advanced amount. You don't and you can still make money in the market. So whatever you're looking to risk, you're looking to turn it over one. What does that mean? If you risk $500, your goal is $500. If you risk $1,000, your goal for the day is $1,000. If you risk $100, your goal for the day is $100. And so on and so forth. Okay. If anyone has questions about this, please, please ask me. I want people to see here what they could achieve and obviously you could achieve more than this if you want to risk more. Okay. If you want to risk even more than this, you can risk more if you want to. You have to be able to have the money in the cash in your account to risk this though. Okay. Or or anything more. But the point I'm trying to make is you got to use common sense. So do you have to risk the advanced trade or risk? No. But you have to start somewhere. You got to make $1,000 a week before you can make $2,000 a week. You have to make $2,000 a week before you can make $3,000 a week. You have to become proficient with the system and follow along. Listen to what I say. Learn the system. You can grow your small account into a larger account and it doesn't even have to take forever. It's about doing it. And so many people are waiting to they have all this money saved up and they're never going to have it signed up and they're never going to get there because they're not actually having a way to actually make income. So if you're going to save up money, how are you going to do it? Work overtime, work extra hours, get a part time job. How are you going to do it? The nice thing about the market is you can make extra money right now in the market. However, you must have a system to follow and a person to follow preferably that knows what they're doing which is one of the reasons why I've become a mentor for so many people that are in my trading room that are my students. So you have to use common sense. You do not need a hundred grand a year to trade. You do not need to earn $400 a year. You don't have to do that out of the gate. That can be your goal. That's a great goal. That's a fine goal but you don't have to wait till you have the money saved to do that. So you start with what you can afford. So you can start earning and learning at the same time because it is very, very, very important for people to do what? Get somewhere. So many people are not getting anywhere with anything at all. Okay and showing people are losing money in the market for years and years and years and and and I just don't understand why people continue to trade and lose but yet they do. I guess people think they're going to figure it out themselves but the reality is it's a long road if you figure it out yourself. It took me a lot of money and a lot of time and a lot of blood sweat and tears and over three years of my life. Is it possible to create your own system? Yes. Do I think everybody has the capability of doing it? No, I do not. I was very lucky that I figured it out. Also, I'm very smart, intelligent. I had a lot of money and I really was my whole life for that period and it was very difficult but I had a great support system, a great family and I had great friends. So I mean you really and I had money behind me as well. So you really have to decide if you're going to go that long hard route or if you're going to just learn from some of the knows what they're doing like me. I can make it easier for you because you just pay me for the information in the class and you join the room. Following a mentor makes it so much easier for you and going through the process of trying to figure out how to trade yourself and what's very interesting is a lot of people do not know how to trade and I think they do but the proof is in the pudding. If you're not making good calls, if you're not taking good trades, if you're not up money at the end of the week, the end of the month, at the end of the year, then you're not a good trader. You're not positive. So making money is really what it comes down to. That's not some bolts of it. So if you want to learn how to train, I can teach you how. You can work for yourself or do this part time. So I teach my method in the Golden Gap course. It's one class on a weekend, Saturday and Sunday, nine to five. You learn my whole method and strategy. I don't hold anything back. Class tuition is $59.99 US dollars. Class is online. You can be anywhere in the world and take it. You must take the Golden Gap class in order to join the live trading room. This is a prerequisite. However, there was a fee for the room after the class just so you know. April 27th and 28th from nine to five is the next class. This is in the middle of during season here. It's a good time to get in and learn because you can have the whole month of May then to trade the earnings gaps after the class. Okay. Then I'm also doing the trends May 13th, noon to four. Class is $6,29 US dollars. Class is online. It could be anywhere in the world and take it. So, you save $500 by doing the combo, combo deal. Okay. Now, if you just want to do options, these are separate from the day trades. That's not the trades that were called in the room. That's not the trades that went over here, but I'm telling you about this. If you don't have time to day trade in the morning, every morning between 9 and 30 and 10, then the options newsletter is something that you might be interested in. $49.99 a year and this is for one year's worth of trades. Totally worth it. I've had a lot of huge calls in this letter too. Same system that it used to make the calls different stock symbols and not in the room. So, if you joined the room, you're not going to get these trades and also you have to have done the class to join the room. This doesn't have any prerequisites. If you're interested, sign up early. Class is next weekend for April. Email me and Melissa at thestockswish.com. Great start to the year. Looking forward to the rest of 2019.
