 chart it's coming yes I can see it all right let me pull up Amazon I don't think we've ever spoken before yeah yeah yeah it is nice chatting to you please to meet you yeah remember what year did you do the class because it wasn't recent no it was you I think the end of 2016 somewhere yeah it was a while ago yeah yeah so you live in South Africa correct yes so what time is it there it is now half past six in the evening oh so that's so when you start trading it's like around the afternoon ish yes oh that's good that's a nice that's a nice that's a nice time yes it's nice time we are actually love it yeah that's great all right now tell me what you did in Amazon today here I'm gonna pull up the chart because I'm taping the video here just explain to everyone what you did first of all I I sent the call out in the pre-market when you saw it did you plan on doing just a fast quick trade in it is that what you planned on doing as soon as you got it as I told you or written to you I pulled out a couple of hundred thousand dollars out of the market because I was really scared of the market I had to cash ready ready to trade okay but and when I saw your email coming through also knowing I having the confidence that to act on on your email and on no cause I thought why commit myself to this trade but I won't even trade in the room I actually I just had the monitors and then everything open almost now what I was just concentrate on having Amazon full to speak okay so you didn't do anything in Apple today that is why I put on 50 calls that's a huge size a huge size in a big stock and it roughly worked out to be $75,000 you risked a hundred thousand and you made 75 is that basically what you did so that that was good so you know it's I'm just wondering I mean it was a phenomenal call I think this is higher next week but you didn't got out I'm wondering like when I had called the Netflix because you did that one right the Netflix one I think that was last week or something I call you won't believe it I've never took the Netflix call I all my money was committed in the market you were in just the market itself no I also trained a lot of other stuff I won't bore you with that now but I didn't have oh I had money to trade I didn't have money to trade but I just didn't do the Netflix call or go ahead and it worked out to such a I've seen it look that brilliant I know I know this was this was a this was a really good one so Apple I also called the Apple one today in the putts this is working to but you didn't do anything with this one no I'm gonna do anything with that okay okay so overall it goes before the Google ones remember yeah I mean that was that was like two or three weeks ago or maybe even a month ago now when I called like four in a row and they all worked that day you had a big day you had a big day that day and you risked less there was nothing here in this Google today I don't like it long and obviously I don't like it short either so this was Amazon was the only one I liked and considering the fact that the market the market looks like what it looks like today you know Amazon is holding extremely well and I think it follows through next week even though you're you're out of it I mean you could even do you know you can even do it oh you did oh you went back in I did a second train I went out I was playing at 10 o'clock and one minute past it to be exact and the core was priced was 16 30 16 35 hours full are you out of that one are you still in that one okay yeah it's this is not gonna go this is gonna just sideways base here today and maybe push up a little bit but without the market this isn't gonna go full-on until next week you know just so you know but the one you did this morning you captured probably the biggest straight-up move today which almost went up to the strike which was a great exit and if you bought it down in here you could have got it up here if it runs up again you can or you'll hold it till next week you know to see where it goes next week yeah this one only bought 20 20 calls the second trade okay and I'm planning to hold it up for next week that's still really that's still a really good size in it that's still a really nice size in the you know in the trade the one from what was yesterday's Facebook you made two grand in that yesterday what did you do with that one yeah because of the market again I was I was it in a frame of mind that I trained it with scared money if I could call it that when the market went up after when it came down I just got out of it okay it is actually a combination of and also if I can show you my screen you understand as well I can show you the truth everything on my screen on my trades everything sure if you want I don't know if you can hear do you know how to share your screen let's see here here I'm gonna stop sharing mine and you go up to call and then share screens and see if it comes up that's okay here hold on it's trying anyways just long and short here oh there I have all I see all your jiggies and a boat I see the boat yes I mean I believe you you did this I mean I believe you I certainly certainly believe you and yes at 20 the 50 calls I wait out at nine and a half minutes yeah yeah I mean that was what you did that was so so gutsy to take the plot that size on and get out so quick but that's what we do with the day trading all the time I mean what size do you usually do in the day trades when we're just doing the day trades not options but in the room I normally trade with a hundred thousand dollars so will you so then it will depend what is the size how many shares I can buy I do a lot of there's the other 20 calls of the second train that I went in then a clock with if you see it there me and I'm not sure this with you because I regard you as a mentor so I can share other things with you yes I see it so it was I did I did the second trade yeah yeah you're gonna have to ride that out until next week that one you're gonna have to write out the next week what are you doing here in Baba I see you have Baba open let me know you see that can show you this I I've got that heat me I was up yeah I was up with these print trade twelve thousand dollars they came down that's one of them like that all you're gonna just ride those out so I'm just writing it out yeah now these are covered calls which I also love to do so I'm gonna roll out of them next week a long term call for July now this is a specific story every month we do spread on this and then we take out money and reduce our risk and stuff like that but which I never will do it again because that gap down that gap down yesterday on the earnings did you do that before the earnings or something or I don't know why you did that at all because I mean I thought because of the fact that it now came to a this I don't like this I don't like at all this one that you're in looks not good I mean when will you kill some of these things that you did on your own like you'll just let them all write out I mean yeah I don't work with indicators the only thing I work with this that's like do you see here what Baba did yesterday yes but I did the wrong thing there totally wrong I thought maybe because I'll prepare to write it out and that is why which was huge and you did this piece of crap Baba here so you didn't do this and this you could have done actually after you got out of Amazon you still could have done this and this is late here the apple you've got another earnings before that you're even out of that one but you'll lose the time value but this very easily could turn around but I don't think it's going to turn around any so when you do trades let me ask you this when you do trades in the room for the day trades do you put a stop in or do you not put a stop there's no time to put the stop just kill it yeah you don't get good fills you mean yeah by the time when we train in the room you want to set up the trade you want to put the stop in the the chart page you have you spelled stocks which wrong but that's hilarious you have stock which is that what you have up you have stock w whoosh oh yeah because you have a very heavy accent yeah before we go how did you ever find me so you said you did the class in 2016 do you remember how you found me because you're so far away I I found you I wasn't you what if your emails found me I don't know how the greatest benefit has been for you since you found me to you know for your trading because clearly you're doing other things you know you're doing other things as well but I mean what do you think is the biggest benefit that you've seen from your trading you know since what I think you're done for the day there's no footsie footsie screens all day because why one can obviously stock's property and obviously to learn your method knowledge those nuggets where those stocks are going to have earnings scan for get down or you can scan for stocks it's going to have earnings and earnings the day before you can do that so everybody is well versed with the fact okay I can go and scan for this I can go and scan for that I can go and do that if you might be asking the guys in the in the room how do what do they do to go and hunt for their own own stocks I can ask the room you know next week but it's interesting I think a lot of people are in the room so they don't have to do that so they just do whatever I put in for the picks but even though some people give ideas do you just go with what I say in the room or do you scan on your own or not at this point in time I just go with what what is going on in the room but also slowly slowly I analyzed it like on the weekend I will go through all the stocks that you've called why have you called it and and the rate them myself and look for reasons for writing them that way try and educate it's terrific that you take the time to do that because why and I'm using that as a learning curve to have a reference does Thinkerswim have the top 20 list like I have I have in the one that I pull up in the in the Orbis the top 20 list do you have that because you know that's where I'm getting a lot of stuff you know the longs and shorts does Thinkerswim have something like that yes I also got chart analytics and other give me a lot and market profile market profile last point and figure charts okay is this the biggest day you ever had trading I wouldn't believe you anyways because you wrote it in the room like five seconds after it happened and we were Netflix I know you didn't do it like when you have a day you've got the market behind you you know in something then you wouldn't have had to necessarily get out that quick it worked out beautifully for you today and obviously you had a lot on but I'm saying like in something like you know the way that the Netflix did it right after the earnings you know and you've got the market behind you I mean that that figure that you made today could have been four times that you know what I'm saying so it's it's interesting I'll be interesting to follow up with you and see what you do going forward in the next month of earning season and and whatever because you did do it today and but you had a big day that one day you made 14 grand that was a huge day that was a huge day yeah yeah yeah yeah so when you're when you're when you when you have trades that you're in that you're down like you said you did the bab on your own you're down in that like you're not you're not bothered because you're down in this because you're made so much today or would if you hadn't made as much today as you did would you be bothered by this thing here or not no and why is that tell me because prepare to take that risk and I will live with it and I will you still got your screen on if necessary yeah yeah I just I would just watch this one because it has to it has to like today the stock gap dup but it couldn't hold itself so it what it needs to do is it needs to turn around you know it needs to turn around unless you're gonna just write it out all the way to July but I'm just saying like it's interesting I'm trying to I'm just trying to get a feel that maybe you can help other people like when you are down in something how do you handle the losses because there is my projection for it yeah I see that but how do you know when it's going to get there like yes the stock is strong and yes it very well could go over 205 but how do you like at this point now it's impossible to predict when it's going to make that move because of the way the stock traded the last two days yes you're quite right and then the options the time is that's right it's killing us like if you were in this as a swing trade I'd say fine whatever but you're in an option you know I haven't traded options I started trading options what four or five months ago oh really I'm still every rookie trading options so I I can't believe that I can't believe how well you're doing considering that that you've made more money than anyone that's in the letter and I can't believe you're only doing it for five months because you would have seen you've been doing it for five years but let me just show you something here really quickly on Amazon which by the way this looks really good gc so so I can I could easily predict last night when I saw the gap which it was trading last night and that's why I sent the letter out in the pre-market last night it was trading like around 1460ish I could see that it would get to 1500 within the week that I called it out whereas Baba I can't see anything I can't see the momentum right the buying isn't there right now to see it's going to go and make a new high at any today tomorrow in 48 hours and seven days but like with Amazon I can see that it's going to go to that number even though it's 40 points away last night it got within two dollars this morning and it looks like it's going to go past that next week the only reason this is dragging today is because of the market but do you see like that's why with options like when I make the calls usually boom you know they do just go immediately or they just put her off I think the Baba one you got to watch because you're going to need something to turn that around that has to happen news something whatever I don't know because it just had the earnings you know two days ago and it didn't it didn't do it or the market you know the market could do it the market could the if the market lifts again Baba could certainly lift again too because we're really we're really not dropping hard here today but but anyways with the options you got to get the timing where you can predict it it's going to go there or close to the strike or through the strike within the time that you got it like you could have done this actually did you do the ones that expired the first one you did did you do the ones that expired today because you could have you could have done that it would have been cheaper it because you got out did you or you did you do the ones for Friday no because because of the bigger of the big steak I had on the table I I didn't want to I knew beforehand before I went into the trade you make it out it won't be a quick trade okay but when it came back and closed the gap under this is Amazon what are you doing now I would have said do that like you could have done that with Facebook you could have done that with Facebook yesterday you could have done the ones for Friday if you knew you're going to get right out yeah yeah when I saw it came more or less yeah yeah and it's start marching up I got it on this red bar it's the same trade that was 959 not the resume bar yes by by by time and and and the training time is not the same but I don't know why but I can swear I got in on this one well this could be a good one for you too just so you're gonna have to hold it but yeah but why we are on the negative at the moment so yeah but look at the chart it looks great yeah the chart is not bad and actually the only reason you're negative is because you have such a monster size so it's because you have 20 cut I mean I mean obviously you saw that today when you take a huge size in something you can be up a lot very quickly but you also could be down even though you're not that far away from that bid ask like I don't know if you you know how often you trade it with size but it's that true the same with day trading as well like and that's why you have to you have to emotionally besides financially be able to be okay with that which which it sounds like you are you know I mean yeah you know I am I am I have been in that I've been flying to the markets for a well for more than five years but I haven't been training options for so I've only started training option the reason so were you successful day trading before you met me or you are you weren't no I've never I've never been day trading I've always tried to trade stocks on a long term and all this and then I got I got fed up I got fed up for okay because and I thought now there must be another way of doing this uh I I actually I went and I have a business plan that's terrific I how are you doing with the day trading this year you are extremely organized I'm trying to follow this business plan while I'm building I'm working towards it well you've already made your goal for the options almost haven't you you're you are on top of the list yeah what I'm trying to show you there it's not I'm trying to build myself a a model of a business plan and say okay I'm trying to these are my goals and this is what I'm trying to do now once I've protected them there how I'm going to get there what must I do to get there uh and and and and I know through shorting the stocks uh if if I do if I'm diligent I can do 12 to 15 000 dollars in your trading room I'll be happy I'm not greedy to say I want to make if I can make 20 or 25 000 grand hey alleluia I'm not gonna say no but my my target is 15 or between 12 and 15 000 dollars mm-hmm our first one to reach the small world those targets if I can reach those steps well then I can grow it from there yeah that sounds good uh you know and and with you bringing the the honey and slinging the honey pots to us like on the side on the side I'll be the big bear I'll grab all the pots you are hilarious and yes I will go for it uh and that will bring up the averages where I'm lacking most probably yeah uh in other instances so and it makes me so happy that yes uh while I'm working on the others where I'm lacking and where I'm not my my problem is I was actually now that I'm talking to you I can't hear you properly over my speakers I was actually plugging my headphones in the room you mean yes I don't know when you get excited and when you start talking you know yes I've been told that before that's hilarious sometimes you can't with your lingo with when you say 26 by 60 you understand that now though don't you no sometimes I'm still lost if I call a trade and I say 10 by 50 that means the first number is the entry and the second one is the stop so like for example today in apple like here let me just pull this up really quickly here I'm going to share my screen now show you this just really quickly here and then I and then I gotta go um here I'm gonna show you my screen just to show you so I'll stop I'll stop sharing oh did I stop though yeah that's okay here I here's the um hold on I'll call that person back here like today in apple whenever whenever I said it okay I said the first number where you could have shorted it right in here 165 stop up here 166 25 yeah usually I don't say the full number beforehand with the dollar but if I say 99 you gotta know it's 164 99 and then if I say 25 obviously you have to know the stock I'm watching where I it's 166 25 so yeah so I mean but if I say 99 by 25 you need to know you're shorting it at 99 and then the stop is at is that 25 yes and I know you said you're not putting the stops in but I don't necessarily think that that's a great idea but if you're quick on the draw to kill it if it goes against you which this very well could have done today it didn't it was a great call but um you know when things do go against you they can go against you pretty pretty quickly anyways that's how I do it and that is something that you do need to know yeah you need to know that yes thank god that one yeah and the targets I usually give in the room or you just listen to me when I say get out no no I look for your targets okay then I then I write them down okay but but sometimes but you you see I also run a business I'm not only trading and sometimes I do make it most of the times I do make it because the market opens when it's but sometimes it changes sometimes it's half past three in the afternoon and now because of it's it's half past four in the afternoon so it's nice but then I must rush to be at home but at four o'clock or which is your three o'clock and sometimes I don't make it then I get there half past three then I said oh well then I'm not even gonna trade then I just open the room and look at what's happening and I sit and look at the market because I'm not mentally prepared yeah that's okay yeah that's fine I mean that makes sense I that's fine then then yeah then I don't yeah I don't trade at all because I know I'm gonna do something wrong so then I don't trade no that's fine yeah that's fine I think you're doing great I think you got to focus more in the day trading for February to get your goals you clearly made your goal today for the options trades for the month and I wish you had done Apple too because Apple Apple here is working this looks great you watch Amazon into the end of next week um what for some kind of pop up here with the market you know um because I think the market holds but we'll have to wait and see if it's today or Monday and then um yeah congratulations I mean you did a great job today but what what what is the big what does the big Apple people saying about the market when are we gonna have the big pool but I don't know what those people say because I don't really listen to those people I just read the chart so I read the chart you know that you know that so you'll have to go and read stuff on the internet if you want to today about it but I don't I try not to get in my head about that stuff because I I want to be focused on what I'm seeing here in the price do you know what I mean if I if I'm focused on the gap then I'll do I'll do a lot better without having the other stuff in my head but if you like to look at that stuff that's fine you can read up about that stuff if you want to I just try to focus on on what's happening the gap and the and the technicals you know well it's good talking to you Lois I mean I'm so glad that you that that we got to do this and I'm really just thrilled that you're doing so well hey thank you so
