 Yeah, so thanks for coming and joining these and your patience here as we get up and running with this here. Oh, Merry Christmas, David. So thank you. All right. So yeah, this is the Advanced Webinar with Scott. We do it every Thursday. As you guys know, it's free and open to all this week only, kind of a Christmas special here. And as we try to use this discord to and get up and running. But when you subscribe to global plus, you get these webinars, all the advanced webinars that start at 10am. All right, so today we have Scott, he will be trading live. He's futures trader. You guys know who he is. But the whole concept here is with the education that you have the educational course that we put together to understand these markets and reading order flow. And then we have the advanced webinars trying to be very objective in those. It is about reading the order flow and objectively applying ways of reading the order flow so that you can trade for any strategy. So then we have two different professional traders Wednesday and Thursday, Jay Trader and Scott, and they will go through stocks and futures, and you can learn their specific strategies and their ways of managing their trades, et cetera. So we really try to cover all the bases for your education and this chat room in here should also be really helpful for you guys. We'll have other people streaming in here shortly. So in the new year, looking forward to it. So you guys know who Scott is, you know, professional trader for over 20 years. He traded the S&P E-mini 10% of the volume, which is just unbelievable, the years 2002-2005. And he focuses on both equities and futures, but he's an expert scalper with an innate ability to quickly read the order flow and volume within price patterns. Here's Scott's information here. I'm going to put it right into the chat right now. And you guys should see it. So there it is. You can click on some of the links in there to go and directly access his trading room, his website. You have his email there in an educational course that he put together that's on the Bookmap Marketplace. All right. So the risk disclosures. Let's go through that. And then I want to mention one thing with you, Scott, that we saw earlier and talk about icebergs and get your insights on that. I thought it was pretty cool to see on Monday. Anyway, general disclosure, all Bookmap limited materials, information, and presentations are for educational purposes only and should not be considered specific investment advice nor recommendations. Live trading is in simulation, demo, paper trading mode, and strictly for educational purposes. Live trading executed in simulation cannot accurately represent real estate trading performance. So a few things to unpack there. It is in SIM, all right. And the reason that we're doing this is not to copy exactly how he's trading. That is, it's really kind of asinine to do something like that. You're not going to learn anything. Learn how this trader is reading the market. And maybe this is something that resonates with you. It is for education, all right. And also, simulation cannot accurately represent it. Even one contract can make a difference with a stop run or something like this. So these are some of the drawbacks in the general disclosure you should know about them. Risk disclosure, trading futures, equities, and digital currencies involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not, I'm sorry, an investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security nor lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading, and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. All right. So I'll turn it over to Scott in just a second. But Scott, I want to show you this from our Twitter. We did tweet it out the other day. The webinar that we, and here's the recording for it here. Yeah, I put it up on YouTube. I'll show you where it is on YouTube as well. We saw 34,000 icebergs here in the S&P. Just unbelievable. I mean, it just kept hitting into them, and they just kept on adding more and more and more. This move here, it ended up, you can see, ended up high for the day here. But let's take a step back and look at, here it is on multi-days here. This is a 15-minute chart. This is an hour chart. This is a daily chart. Four days here. We've rallied. Fourth day, all due to, I think, a lot of those icebergs as well as a lot of limit buy orders down here, completely absorbing right below the swing here on the daily. We're going to look at more of these on higher timeframes. Scott's the expert here on the stops and icebergs. He's got many strategies. I just wanted to point this one out and get also his feedback on it. The video is here of the recording of the webinar. So it's under selected webinars and the one here on the left. So anyway, some really good stuff to see in there. We saw it and look at the result. Four-day rally. I mean, this is real stuff. Like, it's pretty, pretty powerful. And I don't know if you would have seen that transparency without some of the stops and icebergs in there. Anyway, enough said, Scott, I'm going to stop streaming and then let you take over. Can you hear me right? Yeah. Yeah. So it sounds like you're on the computer. Mike, not your headphones or? I don't have headphones. I just have this microphone. OK, all right. I'm getting a bit of an echo, but that's OK. I'm not going to be talking, so anyway. OK, let me do this. Does everyone see Scott's screen? Let me see if I see it. Yeah, it looks good. Everything's good here. All right, take it away, Scott. OK, so what day was that? So that was 34,000 icebergs in one area. I don't remember what day it was. Well, it wasn't. I mean, when you zoom out like that, we needed to show it in the tweet. I mean, it was unbelievable. It was like 1,000, 1,500, 2,000, 5,000, 3,000. It just kept going lower. And you used a cumulative, right? Yeah, we're using cumulative. It's cumulative. So I mean, you're not going to see like 5,000, like necessarily in one shot, but maybe on that day. Oh, yeah. You know, it was just. Monday, it was something like cell ice as well. And they just ran right through it, and that propelled the fuel for the move up. I just went right through it, and we went up huge. But yeah. So I actually have the flu. So bear with me. I actually had to cancel my webinar yesterday afternoon because I was struggling so much, and I don't feel that much better. So bear with me. I'll try to get through this. But trading is hard enough when you're focused a little on when you feel like you're dying. So bear with me. All right, so right now I have a couple of positions on this NASDAQ long on CC at the open. And we had a bunch of cell ice down here, not a bunch, but enough to put the trade on here. That was 110, but then you had another 255 come in. So that's this black zone here. Try to use black for my cell ice, my little jar guy. That was that. And so the way I trade these zones is when it gets an ATR average shoe range in a five minute. I use the Thinkorswim average shoe range. Again, this is all default on their program. This is the Wilders, if you want to dig into it, 14 period. Again, I just use default. It's fine by me. I don't like screwing with stuff. I don't like adding my, I don't like making your artistic. I like using basic stuff or things like that. So I'm not questioning if I made the right choice of as far as time period, blah, blah, blah. So this is just their five minute ATR. You can see right now we're up to 19.29, but at the time we were like, I think it was 11 points. So this thing got 11 points above here. I got on a couple of points too late. So the way I'm doing it now is so that's 11 points. That was a full ATR that came back. And then I used to get in a half ATR and I've been getting literally, I can't tell you how many times you can ask my room where I'll get in. And that's the exact ITEC and then we'll do that. So I've been now going three quarters of an ATR and that's been working out much better. Yesterday I avoided two losers by just moving it three quarters of an ATR away from the zone instead of a half, so. SMPI SICE for B-cell ES 706 Comgraph. So anyway, the way I traded that was ATR, retest, three quarters of an ATR, again, I was a little, I missed it by a couple of points. And then my stop goes, I've been, I changed this a little bit to a half ATR below the zone because once it does this and this and this, you know, it shouldn't come back and get more than a half ATR below the zone. So that's my stop. And then now I just ride this thing, right? So the two exit points that I use is one, I'll get out of half my position at an hourly ATR, so you can see that's 77 points. So I'll go to 77 points from the top of the zone. You can see it's at 16-2. So at 16-2, 77, I will get out of one no matter what because these algos, especially now this week is just Algo Heaven, their volume is terrible and they were just running the show. So you got a lot of algos that hop in, I mean, that are running these markets and they love to trade these ATRs and stuff. So I'm gonna fade the ATRs, things like that. Excuse me. So I'll get out of one there and then I'll get out of my other half of my position or the full position if I see an opposing setup come in, right? So if I see like cell ice here and then it fails and then I'll potentially flip and go the other way. Right, so the last three weeks in my room I've been trading nothing but the volume setups without any kind of input from charts, structure, and even though that's very, very important, especially when you can layer that in with the volume, I'm trying to show my room. Doesn't pay size for the cell EF 706 compress. And you guys that you can be a profitable trader, the simpler you make things, the better you're gonna do and chest trading these volume setups is all you need. And then you can imagine when you get them in important areas that you deem important, you can actually trade bigger size and make that an A plus trade and so on and so forth. But you can be a profitable trader just trading these setups and not even looking at a chart. And what I did is I went back to my roots so when I made millions of dollars, I was just looking at that. I didn't even have charts of I was just looking at order flow. Obviously this doesn't work anymore because it's so fleeting and size doesn't mean anything most times. Like it'll be, you'll see a hundred. Then I'll come up there and turn into a 10 lot, things like that. Just because he all goes around the show now but this is trading these volume setups is the next best thing as far as what that, versus what that used to be, right? It's the best thing right now that I can trade off of and that's all you need. You don't need to confuse yourself with 45 lines on your chart and different areas of the charting and stuff that you may be questioning. You just, I'm proving that over the last three weeks that you can be profitable just trading these setups. So that's what I'm doing right now. Let's get this drawn in here so you can see some sell-ice coming in, ES. Not that that matters. Again, then don't get confused like, oh, they're selling, I gotta get short here. It's not, it's the area that is important. It doesn't, yeah, you wanna a lot of times be on the same side as paper because they run the show and they can stop the market cold but when they're wrong, it's just as useful information as when they're right, right? So don't get caught up saying, oh, this is sell-ice, I need to get short, right? You can see them, you see these blue bubbles? Well, they're just buying right through the size and we saw this Monday. There was about 10,000 icebergs that they just bought right through and then it just rallied straight another 30, 40 points. So don't get sucked into saying, oh, this paper's selling here, I'm gonna get short. And then you have people saying, well, you don't know what they're doing. They could be hedging, they could be getting out of positions and that's all true and you're never gonna know. So don't waste your mental energy trying to understand what they're doing. Just understand there's two sides to this trade, right? You got to sell-ice and then you got whoever's buying it. So when this moves out of the zone, that's where this is the fuel that propels the market either way and that's how I trade it and that's how you need to trade it. Again, very simplistic thinking and it's very effective, right? So that's what I'm showing everyone in my room with the just trading the volume setups. So let's make this, I try to use the yellow for stops, blue for buy-ice and black for sell-ice. We'll try to be consistent with that. It's kind of interesting, Scott. It's coming back to the way that you used to trade by just volume, you know? I bet you it feels more comfortable. Right, I did it for all. Well, it does because you're not questioning everyone and I did it for my room but I did it for myself too because once I started, I've told you guys this before, so I had that auto trader service where now I'm trading for other people per se, like when I put out a trade and mirrors the trade and puts it on for, you guys can find that on my website but I had a lot of things exposed in my trading game where I started making not great trades because I started to let my mind get in the way, right? It's one thing trading for yourself but when you start trading for other people, you start to like question things, right? So my performance to start right off the bat, I mean, it wasn't terrible, I'm trading tiny, tiny but still wasn't doing very well and I'm like, okay, what's going on here? And it's because trading is 90% mental. So my mental game was off like because I was worried about losing other people's money and if you are worried about losing and trading, you're going to lose, right? So what I did was I went back to my roots and I said, you know what? I know this is the most powerful thing out there. So I'm just gonna trade this like I used to trade right off the dome and I don't care where we're at in the chart, I'm just gonna trade these conservatively where you get the ATR to retest the failure, I'll go long or the same and no matter where we're at, I'm taking the trade and I've shown over three weeks, it's been nothing but profitable, right? So I did it for everyone in my room but I did it for myself too just to prove like you don't have to complicate things. And then again, when you can get these, you know, so for instance, like this is a, let's see where we're at on this chart. But this is not a bad area where we may cause, right? You know, if I get a long setup, I'm still gonna go long but you know, if you were to ask me chart wise what I think of this area, I think this could be an area where we stall, right? Why? Because number one, this is where this entire move down move started. This is called directional conviction, right? So that's very important. There's a reason this happened right here, right? So many times this is very, very important. Again, it's one of the four main areas of charting that I use, you know, directional conviction, iron and selling tails, right? Stuff like that. Tops and bottoms of balance areas and HVNs of balance areas, right? So that's where the most trade occurs in a balance area. In a balance area is again just two-way trade guys taking place in their bets. So this directional conviction is a very important area. It's even more meaningful when you have a straight B line move into important areas and that's exactly what this is. We've done nothing but, it's exactly what this is. We've done nothing but go up for 200 straight points right into this area. So this is somewhere where we could fail, right? So how would I use that information? Well, again, I'm taking a trade. So on this newest setup right here, I'm taking your trade regardless if once a break's out of here. So if this does this, if it will ATR or retest failure, I'll go long and I'll go short the same way the other way. But I know this is a very important area. Actually, I think it's up a little higher, but this is a very important area. If I know that, I can say, you know what, this is an A plus setup. I'm gonna put on more size. So I allot myself the way you should be trading is about, you should be risking about 2% of your account size per trade, right? So if you see an A and maybe 6% for the entire day, you should be losing more than 5%, 5 or 6% of your trading account in a day. But I can say, you know what, I love this trade. I love this area. I'm gonna allot 4% to this trade, right? You can allot 6%, but if you lose, you gotta be done for the day, right? And I'm not gonna get into that right now as far as, you know, you wanna have a system in place where you're broke or when you do hit that loss limit because you will have days like that where you just get automatically shut down. You're not about to do something stupid. Everyone knows my story is I'm losing millions of dollars because I didn't follow my risk parameters back when I was trading huge. So I lost my thought again, forgive me because I'm finding the flu here. But anyway, I will trade this zone no matter what, but you can allot, because this is an important area near that. Let's see exactly the price that was. I can afford 47.24 down, yeah, we're right there. You can see right at the bottom of it, right? If I were to draw a zone, I'll draw a zone right here. Get rid of this stuff. I need to update my zones here. These are not relevant anymore. So any questions first while I draw this zone? Let me take a look here. You can see in the back here, this is important too. Okay. No, no, just some people having problems getting in. Boy, there should not be any limitation in the room here. So I'll go through the settings again, but sorry guys, if you can't get in. It is recorded though, but anyway, I'll deal with it. And nothing for you, Scott. As I say, if they can't get in, they obviously can't hear you, right? No. Or can they hear you? I think there's some, yeah, so like David, you need to click on, once you're in that room there, you'll see at the top of the room, like it says streaming or something like one of the persons says streaming, click on that and then you'll start to see it. Now, then once you're in that looking at that screen, then you wanna pop that out. So then you can also chat in the chat room here. So when you're in that screen, then in the bottom right hand corner, you'll see a little white icon there to click on that and it'll pop it out into a separate window. So then you should be able to get it. Okay, sorry guys, I don't know why you can't get in. You should be able to get in, but anyway, I'll help them out along the way, Scott. So sorry to interrupt. So anyway, I just drew this zone. So you can see a lot of these areas can remain important, right? This was, we talked about directional conviction, but what do you see here? Same thing, right? We never made it back up there. We still have made it back up there until this and then it failed again. So this is a very important zone. So what I'm saying is that the volume signals I'm trading, I'll go along here as well as short, but the better trade in my opinion is the short, meaning you should a lot more size for this trade on the short side if it breaks to the downside of this zone is what I'm saying. So when I got back into the, you know, I was out of the game for like four years 2013 to 2017 because I just couldn't make money, you know, before book map with these algos. It was like I was at best an average trader, right? Cause my game, my scalping game went away and the algos knocked me out of the game and I just couldn't make money. I had to support my family. So I went into medical sales for four years. And when I got back in, you know, my Dr. Brett Steenbarger, the one who wrote the financing trade of performance, he contacted me about book map and said, hey, you might want to take a look at the software. It's pretty incredible. It reminds me exactly how he used to view the market. And the minute I saw it, I knew I was back, right? So when I came back, I was gonna just trade stocks because I was so, I PTSD from, you know, futures and trading even the S&P making millions and they haven't had basically to stop working my trading style. So I didn't want to trade futures when I came back in the game and I was trading stocks. So I studied for a while under SMB, capital or SMB trading, yes, for sure, seeing them on the internet and stuff, but they focused mainly on stock trading. So what they would tell their traders and actually they would penalize their traders. So every day they should be making a playbook on things they saw in the market. It doesn't mean you're always gonna trade them. But, and then when you see it over and over and over and then that turns into like one of your main plays, right? So the way they would do it is they would have their traders name their A plus setups. And then if their A plus setup came about that day and then they didn't trade more size on that setup, they would literally be penalized. They would put them on the simulator the next day as a penalty, right? So it's like that's how important it is when you see an area that you love and you know it works 80% of the time and then you get your volume set up, that's an area where you wanna be trading bigger, right? So that's where I got that from. But all right, so we're trying to break out of this. Waiting to see if I get filled here. I'm one of these. Again, I will hold the other one too until I see. So say I get filled on this and it just keeps going up. I'm not getting out my last, my second one until I see an opposing setup, right? Meaning a bearish setup, then I'll get out and then I'll flip potentially. So let's see how that works. Hopefully I can get filled here only about seven points away, so. So we still have this, we're still on this zone here. Another trade I have on, well, let's look at gold first because this is a potential trade. So gold is very bullish. All right, jump into that. And we go over all the stuff, nonstop in my room every day. We go over this structure stuff, right? So you always wanna know the bigger picture, but again, what I'm showing is you can make money just with the volume, but if you're trading in the direction of the bigger picture, you're gonna, again, increase your size. You'll be even more profitable. So this market, we broke down out of this first balance and then we created more balance and this is weeks, right? And we had a fail breakdown. You see that here is your buying tail, instant rejection. And then we got through the high volume note of this and that was a fail breakout of this mammoth, right? So that right there is signal, okay, long is the way to be in this market, right? For your bigger picture trading, right? So we moved up here, we kind of failed, right? Where these prior areas failed, right? And then we came back down. All we're doing is retesting the top of this guy now, all we did, right? And then built balance and then we came up here, built balance. And you can see what just happened here and we'll look at the volume and what this really was, which is really important. So you see there's a buying tail here, that alone is bullish, right? Right here. So tails are very important. That's instant rejection, right? That's one of the four main areas of charting that I watch, right? Yeah, we have a little selling tail here too, but now we are right here. So this is about to become a fail breakdown, just like this bigger one was a failed breakdown, right? So, and I already wanna be long based on what happened over here. So this is gonna be a very good long, meaning I still trade either way based on this setup that's occurring, we'll go over that, but I'd much rather be long and I'm gonna know a lot more size to a long trade than I would a short trade because it's just, it's better in the context of the bigger picture, right? So that tail now, this is really important to know what that tail was. So what kind of vine was in there? Well, we had a sell stop run and you can see these calm snakes in the room. I'll go over this. These are sweeps, some sweet street cleaners outside my window, but you had a stop run here and you can see 366 sweeps. You can see the stop run as well in the chart. So that was 270 of those were out of the 366 were just sell stops, right? So that's basically the retail trader puke, right? We call this a dumb and dumber setup in one of my five setups in my course that I exclusively trade off of. So that's this zone. See the 270 and there was some more right after that. So I incorporated, see there was 100, when you add them together there was about 224 more. So this whole area was a zone, right? And you see how it's to rejection. So this is a dumb and dumber. The dumb money puke, there's no real follow through meaning paper didn't step in behind it and push it because again, these big firms, they see the same thing we see, right? Which is pretty cool that we get to see what they see and why they always make money. Well, that's why Goldman comes out and said they make money 190 to 200 trading days. Well, they have the same information we have. I should say we have the same information as them now. Not many traders can say that retail traders. So anyway, this failed immediately, right? And we came up here and you can see there was a couple more buy stops. So now we don't know what this is yet. It could be a dumb and dumber the other way, but I'm betting this is gonna be a stop and hold based on what we just went over in the structure stuff. So this was a 204 stop run and you can see the 305 snakes that I call, I call them black mamba. This is the black mamba and we're gonna, I'm gonna have all new setups with these things. This is pretty incredible. We'll get into that a little later, but the sweep indicator, it's pretty cool on top of obviously the icebergs and stop runs. So you had 200 stops here. You had another 128 stops here in the same zone and now we're just kind of balancing in the zone. So I'm waiting for a full ATR retest fail and I will go long or I'll go short. Again, this is just strictly off the zone. I'd much rather go long based on what we just talked about, but I still will take the trade the other way. So what do you look at next? We figure out the ATR, ATR is 16 and a half points. So you round up, I make it 17. So meaning I have to see 17, not points ticks and not gold, 17 ticks. So I need to see 17 ticks out of the zone. So this stopper, I mean, top of this was, we'll say 68. So I need to see 85. I'm just using the last two digits. So I would need to see this go up to 85, oops, right there. Then I need a retest and then a failure and I will get in three quarters of an ATR and then my stop goes half ATR below the zone. Again, I've changed that, it used to be a full ATR, but the more I do this, the more I realize, if this does this, this, and this, and I get filled, it should never get back down here and cut more than half ATR if it does and then you're wrong on your play. But so that's what I'm looking for there or I'll do the same thing to the downside. Again, I hope it's to the upside because I can bullish this market, but I will trade you away. And then of course, I come within stupid algos. Came within like four points, three points of this fill. And then it just swipes down 25. So again, this may come all the way back and stop me out. I'm hoping that I get another setup and then I can adjust, right? But if this comes all the way back down, it stops me out, then it does. But the only way you're gonna be a successful trader is by following your rules. So my rules are half of my trade at hourly ATR and or if I see an opposing setup, there's been nothing. So I'm holding on to this trade and this helps you avoid the algos. Like how many guys say they were just had their offer right here and they saw this and they're like, oh no, I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. Okay, I'm gonna chase it down and then it turns out how it comes back and does that, right? So you've got to have your rules and stick to them, right? Yeah, does this feel good come all the way back? No, but I conditioned myself enough now where these markets 80 to 85% could even be more or algo driven. What do you think they're doing when this happens? They know nothing's going on here either. So when nothing's going on, they sit there and flip it back and forth to take your money and make you panic, right? So again, I don't worry about it anymore. Yeah, it sucks that I just missed that and it'll suck even more if I didn't adjust my hourly ATR, let's know it actually increased. So I can actually put this two points higher now. That's another thing you want to keep an eye on, right? So if this starts to shrink, you can move your stop down. I mean your limit order down but it expands, you can move it up. So now it's at 79 points. So I can actually move this 79. Because the bottom of that zone was, the top of that zone that I'm going off of the full ATR was exactly at 16, 200, right there. So I'm going 79 points above there for my bill. And as long as nothing comes in, so don't get me wrong. If I see an opposing setup coming right now, so say I got like some cell ice coming in, right here and then it gets half ATR below there, I'm out. I'm out of this trade and then I'll look for full ATR, it has failed and I'll flip to short. But until then they can out go all they want and I'm staying in this trade. And that's the only way you're going to make money because if you flip out every time the market moves against you, rotates against you as they say, you're just going to be food for the algos, that's it. So you have to decide what you want to be. And then the other trade that I'm in here. So I got long beans at the open. So we had some cell ice to start that was before this blue zone. You see here we came down, you can see these swipes. This was 300 and then you even had more in here. So it was probably about 500 cell ice in this zone, this black zone, right? So what I did is I waited for a full ATR at the time was like a point and a half. We got out of there, we retested, we failed and I got long, right? This came in an after. So what I should be doing right now is potentially getting out of the straight because this is a, I gotta get out of the straight. How? We'll go over why here in a second. So I would have added to this trade if this, so you see this by ice then came in, right? You see 240, 200, 200, so it's 640, then some cell ice all in the zone, right? Actually I should have made this a little higher but it doesn't matter because I'm out of the trade now. But I would have added to this trade if this would have held and we moved in ATR, retest, fail, I would have added to it and then my stop goes a half ATR. So that's why I just got, I actually missed this. I should have been out a half ATR. So ATR is 1.6, so half ATR is 0.8, so one cent below here. So I should have been out at 34.50. So I cost myself about a point a quarter here because this is the newest setup that should not get a half ATR below here if it does and I'm out, right? So now this is a full ATR, right? Because ATR what I was saying was 1.6. So this has definitely moved to point a half below here. Now if we retest, fail, I will go short based on the newest setup, right? But again, when a new setup comes in and we penetrate or violate it by half ATR against my, if I have a position on, then I just get out of the trade. So again, I miss this by about a cent. That's my own fault. User error, but I'll be watching that to potentially go short now. All right, so we're still in the zone. I honestly wasn't expecting much for today. I mean, it's two days before Christmas, how many traders have, I mean, you can see here too. One of the things I really watch and what you should be watching too is relative volume. You can see here, I mean, I guarantee this is terrible, yeah. I mean, look at this volume. So this is showing you that. So this is the Sierra chart relative volume and it shows you basically just this exact time period for the last 30 days, right? You can see here, we're barely getting the half normal volume. Now we haven't gotten that 200% yet. And this may be right here and here, but other than that, look how poor that, look at this volume, it's absolutely terrible. What do you think goes on when the volume is this bad? What do you think's run on the show? The Algos, right? The Algos know when there's no volume in here as well and then that's when they do this to you, right? Doesn't mean we can't have sustained moves and things like that, but just be ready for this type of trade because they know it's free reign today and this whole week, right? So that's why a lot of guys just take this week off. I probably should have myself, but, you know, you gotta, sorry, I really wanna sweep my street today. A lot of guys, again, just take this week off because you're just asking for trouble and whipsaw. I mean, if you like whipsaws, and this is your week to trade, but so just be aware of that, right? I mean, when you get volume like that, you need to be very careful trading. But again, these setups are the setups and this is still a decent, for how bad the volume is, you still got to sell ice, we're in the zone. So my point is we can just sit here for hours, always the problem, just because there's just nothing going on. Let's see if I actually get to fill here because I didn't let the algos scare me on the 25 point rip back down, 30 point rip back down. This is what I'm talking about. This is all- So I'd be nice for by the 245 contracts. These are algos taking your money because you can't sit in trades, right? I have my rules, here's my rules, or an opposing setup and they can do this for 10 hours and I'm still gonna be in this trade while I'm leasing to the close. You got to condition yourself to do this or you're never gonna make it, never. You're gonna be just food for the algos, getting whipsawed, getting frustrated. Let's see what's going on. Another 200 in this zone. I'm just gonna be a little confusing because we've got like three zones now in here but that is definitely threshold again and I have thresholds for all these markets that I know what is worth trading, what's not worth trading. That's all in my course. Yes, I indicated of course, you guys can see on my website or book my marketplace and it gives you the five setups how to trade them and the thresholds, right? Thresholds are just as important because you don't wanna be trading. I've seen that error and even in my room you got guys like pointing out oh, there's an iceberg, here's a setup and it's like, you know, 50. Okay, 50 is not, that's not market moving. 200 is market moving, right? That's why I draw zones if they hit the thresholds. If not, I don't pay attention, right? You don't wanna be paid attention to the little tiny blips in the volume because it doesn't mean anything. So that's that zone. We'll see how that trades. I'll come back to that here in a second and we'll see what's going on with. Any questions, Bruce? Yeah, yeah, I was just about to jump in and ask. So yeah, Peter, so it looks like he answered your question immediately there. Sam's asking, apart from the website is there anything else that you look at or for in Bookmap to identify algo activity? Well, everything is algo activity. I look for when it's not just algo activity, right? Again, when the algos are 80 plus percent of the trade. So you just have to look at it like everything is algo activity and you wanna look when it's not just algos, right? Cause that's what they do too. They know when the big money comes in and they either turn off the algo or they get out of the way, right? So you gotta be doing the same thing and that's what this information tells you, right? So when you see like icebergs or algos, worst enemy, right? They're playing their games and then they run into an iceberg and it's like, oh, then turn, they turn around and puke it. But you have to view of all this trade as algo activity. Like this is 100%, there's been nothing going on. So here's a perfect example, right? Look at all these stop runs. Stop, stop, stop, stop. None of these are threshold. So I don't even pay attention to it. If you pay attention every blip, that's like just paying attention to every market move. You'll drive yourself crazy and it's worthless. You're wasting your mental energy, right? So that's why I look for a certain size to come in and then I'll trade it, right? But I don't pay attention to little blips and I don't let them scare me out. I have my rules that I've, you know, after years of trading this three plus years, two plus years trading the SI indicator, I know what to expect and I know what it should do, what it shouldn't and I will be in this trade one until I get filled or if I see an opposing setup, right? If I see a bearish setup, I'll get out. Kind of like you just saw it in Beant, right? So Scott, another thing, I'm just to tell everybody here, we're still working, I'm sorry for this, we're still working on the hiccups in here. If you guys, you can join, it's unlimited to join this advanced webinar voice room. However, there seems to be a limit or cap on the streaming and that is 50. If you have that issue, you can see Sam is streaming also the same thing that Scott is. So you can view his get another 50 people in there at least. So you guys should be able to see it and hear it and then also, you know, ask questions in this room here. So that was all Scott. Oh, no, I'm sorry. Yeah, another question in here about, you say you trade for other people, maybe you wanna explain that? Yeah, I mean, it's an auto trader program. So I got to just go on my website and get information on it and just fill out the form and they'll broker, they'll tell you about it but just go here. This is my website, click on this and you gotta say yes. And then I basically, Scott Strayson can now be executed through your broker automatically. So whatever I said to the broker as a trade, it automatically fires off across the board for all the subscribers to my service, right? So I don't get any percentage of the trade of the profits or anything like that. It's just a straight 149, it's like a subscription, right? So whatever I do, you pay 149 a month, whatever I do, you get those trades. So again, if you have more questions about it, contact them. I'm not supposed to answer questions on that because they, again, they have certain things they tell clients and as far as also the, what store I'm looking for, compliance stuff, right? So I just defer to them for questions but basically I fire off a trade or I put in a trade, I send them the trade and then they're fires off across all the accounts. Other than that, you wanna learn how to do this yourself and that's the whole point of these webinars, right? It's to teach you how to read this volume and trade it for yourself, right? The thing for the auto trader is a lot of guys are, they're not sitting full time in front of their screens and they wanna participate in my trading but they can't sit there like in my trade room all day long and put on trades. So that's what that's for. So put your bust off if you have the time and you can do it and then you wanna learn how to trade for yourself, right? Because- So that's answering David's question here but he's also asking, do you look at charts all day long or set up alarms that indicate a setup is coming? Well, you have the alarm, the voice notifications, right? So when you come in a sub chart here, it'll read like here's gold, right? So if there's over 150 stops or 150 ice, it'll read it off, right? So you can see right here, it'll read it and it'll put it here. So this is the alert. So you just go to get this screen, you just go to your, oops, just go to file, alerts and then that brings up this pop-up box. So in case you, because again, once you start trading, you're trading multiple things, a lot of these will go off and you won't even notice them just because they're happening pretty often, especially on an active day. But then you just gotta scroll back and look, it shows you the time. So you had S&P ice, that's the zone we're looking at. We have two different icebergs, one at 8.12, one at 8.14, that's what we're trading off of or we're waiting for it to get out of there. So it'd be nice for five years, 200 com breath. So that's my alerts that I know if my threshold has been hit to pay attention to that market, right? So we already have, so what I'm gonna do here is I'm gonna get rid of this black zone because this is all, this is the first thing that's happened earlier and everything's happening in that same area now. So I'm gonna expand this because we had this. This was threshold 218, nice, another close to 200 ice. So I'm gonna make this one big zone and we'll trade off in this zone. And I may be getting back in long or short, depending on how it moves out of the zone. But yeah, I mean, there'll be certain times while, you know, for instance, like the zone I hear, I'll put alerts, think or swim, you can do this, right? I can say, all right, hey, if this gets here, create an alert, add or above, there you go. So now if it touches that price, it'll make a sound, it'll also text me, my phone. Then I know, hey, we're at that area, but that's pretty much all you use that and then the voice alerts. And then they also have this telegram feature, I still have to have Bruce teach me how to use it. But you can see here, you can get the, actually it's the on-chart one. You can have it literally, it'll text you, email you whatever you want when you get the threshold that you set on the on-chart information. So you have on-chart icebergs, that's the stuff here. And then you have the sub-chart which shows you pretty much the same stuff down here, right? But you can see a lot of times if it's the same house, the same entity that is the entire iceberg, right? So like this one was 194 executed, fully executed. Then another 200 came in, oh, this is the buy ice. You can see the selling ran into the buy ice. So two different, this could be the same entity too, but a lot of times you'll see like, it'll just say T and then T and then it'll be like another 200 T and then another two and then it'll finally say like executed and then it's like, all it does is add these all up and it'll be like, you know, 1400. So when you see the ease, you know that's when it finally executed. But you got to be careful on that because a lot of times people will see, let me see if I can find an example. They'll see the E, see if these algos let me get filled. Stupid algos. A lot of times you'll see the E and it happens way after the fact. You don't want to get fooled by that. That's why I used the sub, meaning it's like spread out, right? I like market moving. See if we can find that an example here. I like concentrated size, right? I don't want to see, oh, this isn't firing off, let's see. Sure. We'll get into these sweeps here in a little bit too, but so this is the synthetic icebergs. We'll get into that too. That's, I don't want to confuse you guys, but I don't know why it's not showing me the icebergs on the chart there. But my point is if you see, so say this comes in and a lot of times it'll, the whole reason you're not seeing on chart because nothing's firing off, but you'll see transacted 100 T 100 and then it's like half hour later T 100. So this is the same house. So it keeps testing that area. Say this is by ice, right? And it keeps testing, testing. Well, someone's there with a lot of size, but I don't look at one test as my, so when it finally executed, it'll say 1500. Well, that doesn't mean it was 1500 right then, right there. It means it's adding up all the ice that came in over the last half hour. You got to be careful on that because again, I like, that's why I like using this because I like to see spikes with concentrated volume, not over a long period. I don't want to pay attention to that, but I don't trade, I trade off the, off the sum chart is what I'm trying to say. All right, let's see if there, how horrific. You can do it. It's almost like they know my order is right there. Let me make sure I'm still at 79. Some people have to play their little games. Movie, movie Bruce. And I know you're going to guess it. Oh, I actually, no, you know what? It's funny. It was Al Pacino. Oh, yeah. I mean, that's, it's He was talking to Al Pacino. It was the senator. Right, right. It was the senator. It was the senator. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he was trying to bribe Michael and he said, Senator, I'll give you my answer now. If you'd like offers this, nothing. I didn't even the fee for the gaming license, which I appreciate you put up personally. Wow. That's what that's for. Tell me you got to keep a sense of humor in this game or you will go crazy. And then I just got, oh, so you know what I just did there? I did this all the time. More on this one. There you go. I'll put it, I'm surprised someone didn't, my room warns me about this all the time. I'm color blind, but I still didn't, I meant to have that as an offer. I put it in as a bit. So I'm glad I got out of that, but, so I should have been filled a little higher. So I put it in as a bid where I stopped into a long. You were filled there. One. Well, no, cause I got, I bought another one. No, that's a cell. The pink, the, the, look. So I put this in as a bid instead of an offer. So it shows you for 20, 20 plus years. And it still makes stupid mistakes like that. So I meant to put that as an offer and I put it in and I bought more instead of getting out. Thank God I caught it. Glad I was on the screen. Cause then I got out of the one. And then the other one, I caused myself a couple of points, not a big deal, but the point is, and you can see the little snake here in the black mamba. There's the sweeps got filled. And guess what? I didn't let the algos beat me on their nonsense, right? How many guys say had there's, you know, a limit offer up there for whatever reason. And then just got algos. This means nothing. Does it mean it can't come all the way back? Absolutely not. I could definitely come back, but you got to make a decision. Are you going to have your rules and follow them? Or are you going to be algos? Right? And I don't let them out of me. I know what worked. I know where, if this is a correct setup, I know it should with the size involved in the setup. This should go an hourly ATR minimum. That's why I get out a half at an hourly ATR. And then I will hold this until I get into posting setup. And that means this thing can go, I had this like three or four times in the last couple of weeks where I'm showing the guys just trading off the volume, this could go another 300 points before a setup comes and I'm holding the trade. I'm not getting out, right? So that's how I trade it and it works. So that's what I do. Just make sure you put your orders on the right side of the order book and not be an idiot like me sometimes. You always got to be paying attention though because it's very easy to make mistakes. Very easy to make mistakes. And for instance, my other account, I was long two soybeans overnight and I didn't even realize it. And I brought on my other trading dome today. I'm like, oh, I guess I'm long too. And of course it was a loser because they're never winners when you make mistakes. But the point is you got to stand top and then help your game. Did you make mistakes like that when you were trading a massive size? No, because I was in and out all day. Like I would only day trade and I was just flipping the order book all the entire time. So no, we had my P&L. Even though again, when I finally took off, like I tell you guys, I had the P&L down here, when I finally started making millions of dollars, I turned my P&L off and I just started trading. And then at the end of the day, I would look at my P&L and so many times like, yeah, when you first couple of trades, you kind of know where you're at, but trust me, you start concentrating and you're just trading set up, set up, set up, set up. You lose track and then you look at it and it's like there'd be days I'd pull it up. I'd be up like 180,000, stuff like that. And I was like, I guess I did well today, right? But this is another secret of how you make money trading. You cannot be watching your P&L take up up and down. That's what these algos want. And that's what most people don't make money. That's why you want to have a stop loss with your brokerage where if you are losing, you try not to look at your P&L and if you hit it, you just get shut off by your broker. You don't even have to look at your P&L, right? So if you can do that, again, and that takes conditioning too, you gotta takes training to be able to turn that off. But I promise you, if you turn it off, it'll be where you turn the corner and take off as a trader, 100%. Makes total sense because then you're focusing on trading correctly. You're just trading your setups. You're not worrying about the money. Like that's why most people can't make money. They don't make money trading because they're focused on the money. You can't be focused on the money. You have your stop losses in place for the day and whatever and you just trade and just trade and trade your setups, follow your rules. You're not basing it off your money. If you base it off your money, you are not going to make it. Take it from me. I can't tell you how many people I saw. No, and the other thing I see people do it too, which is a complete, to this day, it's ridiculous. I still see it in some of the rooms and stuff. Oh my, you know, I have my profit goal. I'm done for the day. It's like, what, what? Like if you're seeing things clearly, you should be sitting at that computer the entire day. It's when you're not seeing things clearly, you should get up and go. You don't make a certain amount and be done. Like that's, I'm not kidding you. This is what would go on on my trading firm. When I first started, I would see guys, again, it was like printing money when the stuff first came to the screen, especially like NASDAQ and stuff, guys would make five grand and they turn off their computer and they go sit in the game room, play it for the next three hours and play video games. It's like, well, if you can make five grand, why would you not try to make 10? If you can make 10 grand, try to make 20. Like, yeah, if you want to have a stop loss, if you start to lose back, I'm not saying, you know, you go up $5,000 or whatever amount you deem that I'm done for the day, right? If you go up five grand and you say, you know what, if I give back a thousand, then I'm done, right? You'd be shocked at how many times, especially when you're seeing things, clearly you'll have these 10,000, $15,000 days where you never give back the thousand. But just to make 5,000 or whatever you're happy with for a day, some people are like 500. Well, if you can make 500, why would you not want to make 1,000 or 2,000? Like, don't, we all know there's certain days these markets are just strange. Like Monday was a perfect example, I was talking in the room, it was because the volume was so light, it was just a weird, weird trading day, right? There's some days where you just watch in the markets, you're like, I don't know what this is, like this is not making sense, this is not what I'm used to seeing, right? So it's like, those are the days where if you lose, then you're done. When you're seeing things clearly, do not get up from your screen. Like why, that, you want to take advantage of those moments, not be, oh, there's my 500 bucks, done for the day, that's the dumbest. To this day, I cannot believe when people say that, I just can't believe it. But that's what most people did in my firm, not most, but quite a few. And those were the first guys out the door when it started getting more difficult to scalp and stuff like that, with the order book and stuff that they were doing, they were the first guys fired because they just didn't have the P&L to back up any kind of drawdown, right? So the number one thing you should, for today, number one ramp thing that you should take from this webinar is if you are seeing things clearly, do not get up if you hit your profit target for the day, set a stop to lose back. So again, if you're a 500 and you give back, say, okay, I'm gonna risk, if I lose 200 bucks more back, but then I'm done, fine. But don't get up when you're seeing things clearly. Makes no sense to me. All right, so we're waiting for this thing to break an ATR out of here. 3.68, so three and three quarter point. Top of this zone was 1775, so 2150, I need to see to get long, meaning I need to see 2150 price. I wanna see a retest and I wanna see a failure. I'll get in at three quarters of an ATR and then I'll be long. You know, what I tell my room all the time is, you know, I'm just trading these zones for the last few weeks very conservatively, but there's gonna be times like there was a couple of times yesterday where you get your setup, like there was one in, yes, there was a stop run. Actually, it was a dumb and dumber when we pulled back to the low yesterday. Actually, I'll show you right here and I think I got it. Yep, right here. Came down, swiped down, dumb and dumber. We had the stop run, it was 458, but it was, there was some swipes and stuff, so it was definitely, there was one right after this too, but that's this yellow zone and it just, again, dumb money puke, no follow through, gone. So this is what I'm saying, like there's gonna be times where you don't get the retest, you have to determine that as a trader. Hey, is this an area I wanna be aggressive and take first break, half ATR break out of the zone? You have to determine that yourself. Like what I say in every webinar is this is the science, right? There's art and science, this is the science. There's no disputing these icebergs in this area, right? What the art is is how you trade these zones. You may not like, hey, I don't wait for an ATR retest fail. The minute we break out of that zone, half ATR or whatever you decide, that's when you like to get in. That's fine, didn't do that. That's your prerogative as a trader where you may wanna design this more for how you like to trade, okay? My way is one way, you can trade these any way you want. This is not up for questioning, right? This zone is the zone, how you trade the zone is up to you, right? So again, if this is an area you wanna be really aggressive, this may not retest for me to get long. You've gotta accept that and decide how you wanna trade them. The one thing you can't do though is one time take it aggressively and then another time you say, I'm gonna wait and that's when you start to make mistakes and question yourself, be consistent, right? Just like this trade in NQ that I'm still in. I'm so consistent. You saw me besides this, putting in the wrong side of the order here. You saw I didn't let these algos freak me out, right? I'm consistent. I waited for my hourly ATR and I'm still in this trade, but one lot until I see the opposing signal, that's consistency. There's nothing gonna change that, right? I'm not gonna say, eh, you know what? I don't feel like this can go up anymore. You know, this doesn't feel right. No, I have my rules and I trade my rules. What do you think algos are? Algos aren't trading by feeling. Algos have the information inputted to them by humans and that's why they're there because humans make emotional mistakes all the time, right? So the algos don't, they don't say, eh, this doesn't feel right. Yeah, I don't like that red bubble. No, they follow the rules and they get out and get in based on the set rules, not on their emotions. And that's what I do in my trading or the best I can. You know, once in a while I'll make a stupid mistake but I'm pretty conditioned not to, again, besides putting orders on the wrong side of the order book, that's what you learn in the first day of trading but I still do stupid crap like that. But other than that, I'm pretty disciplined and playing my setups and that's why I make money. Any other questions, Bruce? A few, but that was a good rant, though. Thanks, pretty good considering I have the flu too and I feel like my head's gonna pop off. Yeah, yeah, no, you got plenty of energy. So you started off slow. That's three cups of coffee, three cups of coffee, that's fine. Let's see here. A few different questions. You know, we've got new traders in here. So, yeah, Amar, yeah, he's making these horizontal lines that kind of match the spikes there that he wants to look at. And so you come in here just quickly. So you watch where this stuff comes in, right? Do you have this first stop run or this first sell ice here? It's pretty close. Yeah, 750, I use 700 is my threshold. So just this alone, the spike here would have been drawn. So all you do is you find out you come to your little crosshair here and you find out where that started, right? So go to where this spike and you draw it. This might be a little too low. Should have been up here. We'll do that, actually. So you draw this right where it spiked. And then you incorporate all the prices in that spike, right? So this originally stopped right here. So my zone would have originally been there. See how this stopped coming in right at this price. So I would have drawn my zone there, but I increased it because you had this that came up to there. You see where the spike stopped, that was there. And then you had more come in up here. So you see right there, it's where it's dissipated and I drew the zone at the high price. So this was the high price of this zone, right? It came back down, but this price right here was still in this spike. So that's where I drew the top of the zone. So there you go. You have again 750, 630, that's almost 1500. This is almost 2000 sell ice in this zone, right? And that's what I tried off of. And then I wait again. So now we're about to get the full ATR out of here. I think we already did. What did I say? ATR is 3.66, so 2175, it's 2150, it's 3.75, right? So we got there. Here's your retest. So again, they retest these zones 80% of the time. Crude is even more, I'd say 90% of the time. So if this comes within yesterday, I actually cost myself a trade in my trading room. And when I looked at it after I got off, I actually missed a huge trade, it was a 25 point winner. And yes, it came up, it came to within the top of the zone. And I said, I want to see two ticks away. And I was like, I thought it was four and I didn't put it on. And when I expanded my chart, it was two ticks away and I should have been long. So anyway, when it comes back, a lot of times it'll come like right close to the zone and then go. So just two ticks, two, three ticks, that's fine, right? So 1775. So if this comes up to, I'd say it comes down to here. It starts to run away, I will get in. Doesn't have to be the exact zone. Give yourself a little two, three tick allotment. Many times we'll come right back to it though. So if that happens, then I want to be in three quarters of an ATR, right? So half an ATR, let's just use four to make it easy. Half ATR is two. And then another half of an ATR, half of an half because I'm doing three quarters is three points. So meaning, we didn't get quite there. Yeah, this is four. I don't use four, that's not close enough for me. But if this comes within two or three ticks of this zone then I go three points above the zone for my entry. So I'll be in at 20 and a half. I may miss this, you got it, but you got it. I'm just consistent with what I do. I mean, if this does not come back and retrace and get within two or three ticks, I'm not getting in the trade. Cause I'm waiting again for the experiment that I'm doing with my room. I'm waiting for full retest. That's not a retest yet. So does that mean it can't do that? Absolutely not. I just showed you one that did that yesterday that didn't even come back this much and it just takes off. That's what you have to decide as a trader how aggressive you want to be. So I'm still waiting for a retest in that zone. I'll probably get it. Now we also know we have some more. All right, so again, I was waiting to trade this zone. Actually, this is something we cover all the time in here. And this is why it's going up. No, ATR is 15 ticks. So we never got 15 ticks above here. We got like eight. Now we're 15 ticks above here, but now you got a new setup. So now we're going to trade off at this other because that's the most recent one, right? So again, that's what I'm talking about. Like we talked about how, why you wanted to be, why gold look really bullish. You could have said on this stops, we just went through this earlier, the minute it breaks a half ATR you're in, you're not waiting for retest because now you already cost yourself because it didn't ever retest it, it never went in ATR and retested. So that's what you have to determine on your own on how you want to trade the zones. You want to trade them aggressively or do you want to wait for retest failures? Let's draw this up. So this is for example, how you draw these, right? So this is where this spiked. Like you can see right here and you can see the on chart as well. You can see the red line. So that started right at this blue bubble. So I'll draw my bottom of my zone there, right? And then I go and I see where it stopped, which is basically the same here. See, this is where it dissipated right about here. But you need to incorporate all the prices that came in. Right, so that puts my, puts me up here. So that's that zone of the stop run that just fired off. I'm gonna make it a different color because the other one's white too. And I don't want to confuse yourself. This understanding. Whatever color that is and then. All right, so now this is the newest zone. So I will trade this either way. I prefer it be long because of what I said, but you know, if this goes 15 ticks below retest failure, I'll go short. Again, yeah, I know this is here, but this just occurred or I much prefer 15 ticks retest failure to go long. So we'll see on that. But like I said, you could have been right when I break out of this zone, you've already belong if you like to play aggressively. I have been aggressive, but again, what I'm doing for this pretty much a month, it's gonna be a month by the end of the year is I'm just taking only conservative retest failures. So like this one, I may miss. This did not get, this was a full point away from the top of the zone. So I'm not, that's too far for me. I'm still on this too. So got that going for me, which is nice. Movie. Movie. I was waiting for it. Caddyshack. Very nice. Yeah, someone probably typed it in a cheater. No, no, you schooled me on that many months ago, like a year or two ago. Yeah. I used to say, I mean, I only have like four movies in my brain. Like, you're gonna learn most of the quotes after watching me a hundred times. Let's see what's going on in here. Still have a broken out of this newest zone and beans, but I will, I'm just waiting for Oh, and by the way, we didn't really talk about this. This is just tick strike. My website, if you go on there, you get discounts to that as well. Everything on my website, there's discounts. So if you click on where it says Scott, even my room, don't even know that. Doesn't even know that I should say they're like, what? So if you go here and you see, check out Scott's deals. These are all discounted things. His book, I have trade room. So I journal my trades, which is awesome. Tick strike, spot gamma. Rhythmic, Rhythmic's not a discount, but you see. But anyway, so this is tick strike. So this is just telling me, so this is now go, I've been using this thing for years. I stopped using it because he never updated the software for like 12 years and it just was not up to my, up to par as far as I was concerned, but they've recently redone it and they've added all these stocks. So this is just really helpful to see, you know, you can come up with strategies alone, just on this stuff. What this is telling you, this is a meter. You can see this meter having these set to 11, but it goes from one sensitivity all the way up to 15. So what it does is it takes the size of the orders and the speed of the orders coming in. He's got an algo that shows it. So you can see like Facebook, they're buying heavily Facebook. That's a plus 13. The highest it can go is plus 15. This is really important to know, considering these are the main drivers of these futures, right? Right, it's important to know. So say like you get into an important area, whatever you deem important, right? Say it's like, I know most of you guys have 82 things on your chart, but say we come up here and whatever it is, say it's a Bollinger Band or whatever else you guys are using, that it's just hurting your trading. But say it comes up here and none of these are firing off, then you can say, you know what, that's a fade. Or you get your zones and we come back down here. Say we come back to the middle of this or to the bottom and none of these are not selling anything. You can get into the bottom of the zone, right? There's so many different strategies you can use, but this just helps me know what the stock underlying stocks are doing. And then I have what the original way is to use these, right? I have these other products, right? So the way I used to use this is because you can't watch 10 markets at one time. So I wouldn't know if this was before book map and all that, but where you had the alerts right now and I get alerted to at least icebergs and stuff, but you wouldn't know if there was some serious activity firing off in these other markets. So now I will know based on the sound and you know, got different sounds for these, for equities versus crude and gold. So as I hear it, I know, okay, I got to pay attention to crude, right? Or I got to pay attention to gold. Yeah, book map is the number one way to do that. But, you know, this just helps alert me if these other markets are firing off. So that's what this is in case you guys were wondering. You can have VIX, right? So you see an hammer in the VIX, that's a... Which one goes to 11? I have mine set at 11, right? So that means they will not make a sound or light up unless it touches 11. Okay, all right. I can hand that one. Movie quote, sorry. This one goes to 11. Oh, I don't know. Oh, come on. Well, first of all, I can see the jazz. Very serious, very serious. Yeah, yeah, spinal tap. Oh my God. I don't even think I've ever seen that. You might like it. Anyway, sorry to distract. You just showed your rage on that one, though. Yeah. That was like a 1980s movie, wasn't it? Yeah. To show how old you really are. Yeah, that's true. Some other ways you can get out of these trades too, right? And if you don't like the hourly ATR or you say, you know, I don't like waiting for an opposing signal, I just have to get out because it just makes me not feel good. Again, until you can combat that in your trading, you're never gonna make serious money. But this is also important too, right? Liquidity. First of all, liquidity is like a magnet. You guys all know that, right? When you see the liquidity in there, guys that don't know what they're doing, think that's like, oh, I wanna be a seller, man. Look at all that size up there. No, it's actually, you wanna be a buyer because it's eventually gonna get to that equity. But the way you can trade this liquidity is, you know, when it gets up there and it struggles, like you actually would have been out of this one, but say, you need to even say an ATR, but if it can't get through that liquidity and it fails, you can get out at that point too, right? These are just different options for you to get out of trades. Who are you? You look great. No, this didn't really move too much below here. What was it, about 10 points? Yeah, I went, you know. So you can say, when we touch liquidity, once they get their fill, if we go a full ATR below that liquidity, then I'm out, right? I'm just giving it, I'm just giving you, other than that, I'm holding it. So that would have been like, for instance, ATR right now is 18. So you say 18 points, I need to see retraced away from that liquidity, then I get out. Again, I'm just giving you guys different ideas on how to get out, if you don't like my method of hourly ATR for half and then waiting for opposing setup. But you see, how much more have I taken from this trade? One, I didn't get scared out when we came close to it earlier, right? I didn't get algoed, right? And then I finally got my fill. And two, I'm not saying, man, this has gone up way too much. This really looks really vertical. I don't know, this doesn't feel right, right? I don't care about any of that. Yeah, if you really think about it, well, this could easily just do this. But then it also could just do that. So what are you gonna do, right? You can't use your, usually your judgment is the exact opposite of market action, right? That, again, that's why most traders don't make it because they want to use their reasoning skills that they use in the real world for trading. And it's actually usually the opposite. If you're trading in the zone, or what's the other one I'm reading now, the Discipline Trader by Mark Douglas, you'll learn that most people are trying to implement their mental environment in trading. And it's exact opposite most times, right? That's why the smartest people on the planet can't trade, usually, right? Like your doctors, your lawyers, the guys that try to, like, when they go to retire, they're like, I want to pick up trading. I'm not gonna, I don't want to be a doctor anymore. Those guys never make it because they're almost too smart for their own good, right? They think they know more than what the market's doing or they're applying their knowledge that they use in the real world in a trading. And it doesn't work, it's actually the opposite. So my point is, if you come up with your rules, then you don't have to question every blip. Just, you know, I have my rules, I'm not getting out of this trade until I see an opposing signal. Gonna come all the way back, sure could. That would suck for me. But more than likely, this thing starts to sell off. I'm gonna get a setup or I can get out of the trade, right? Yeah, Scott, actually, I'm sorry, finish up. I didn't have a question, no? No, no, they're good. Oh, okay, I mean, I'm just curious though, like your thoughts on something like this, like, yeah, absolutely. This is so true what you just said, that, you know, people try to force their mental model onto the markets. Like, well, you know, it hit all these indicators. I studied these indicators. It should drop and do this or that or whatever. And they just get run over. However, you know, what do you think about, like, you know, something like on Monday, when we saw all those icebergs filled? I mean, it took a while for price to turn around. But, and it, what I'm trying to get at here is, we knew they were larger players. We knew their position and they, we knew the price was going against them, but they just added more and more and more. And I don't think it's one player. I think those are many players. And I think they're signaling each other as well. It's kind of like, yeah, okay, you know, I know where you're going. You know where I'm going. Let's make some money together type of thing. If you can give maybe a little bit of insight on that comment. As far as? Well, I mean, is that true? I mean, do you see that in the industry? Like, you know, that larger players, a lot of times like, I think you can see it with some of those hero and spot gamma levels that larger players kind of kind of trip or tick you off to like what their positions might be. And others kind of get that and you're just like, oh, okay, well you're there and you're kind of telling me this is where you want to get filled. And therefore I'll be a buyer to reach your liquidity. We talk about this all the time. Talk about it in my room every day. Like, you know, you can sit here and get frustrated at the stuff and you know, say it's manipulated because it is, don't get me wrong. These markets are 100% manipulated by the big players, right? 100%, they run the show. That's why the markets always make it to the liquidity, right? Because they make it to the liquidity, right? They're big enough to push these markets around. So you can sit here and you can complain all day long, right, oh, they run everything. This is all manipulated. It absolutely is. But what I say in my room is, if you can't beat them, join them. And that's what this information tells you, right? So, you know, the other day, if you saw all those icebergs coming in or you can sit there and complain just to say you were short or you wanted to be short. You're like, oh, damn it, man, there's 14,000 icebergs here. Man, this sucks. I want to be short. Or do you just want to join them? Like, why beat your head against the wall trying to be opposite and impose your beliefs on the market like Bruce was saying, just join them. If you can't beat them, you're not gonna beat them unless you could throw around 10,000 lots, right? If you can't beat them, join them. So again, there's so many, especially when, you know, my trading firm when the Algos really took over and guys couldn't make money anymore and it was just their whole MO out. Me included was, you know, this is all fixed. This is a complete scam. It's, you know, it's manipulated. You can't make money, right? And that was before bookmap tools, right? And that's exactly what it is, trust me. Like I said, these markets are 100% manipulated. There is, every day, spoofing going on, even though they're trying to, you know, stop the spoofing as they say, it's still going on. So again, do you want to complain and just fight it or do you want to join them? And if you understand how to read the big money in here, right, like with the SI indicator, with the snakes, the sweeps. I'll try to get into that. I'm gonna get off here shortly, but I'll get into this briefly. You know, knowing this stuff, you can join them. You don't have to sit there and try to beat them. Join them, right? Cause they run the show. The big money runs the show. So it's a segue into this, right? So this is not a setup down here. This was only 200 icebergs, but you can see here. Look how many swipe down here. So you see this. So what this is showing you and showing you the passive side of the order. This is the sweeps indicator. You get this, Bruce said, did you get this if you were a global plus? Yeah. This is a loan, like I was showing my room the other day, like the difference in the pricing between global and global plus. It's like 40 bucks a month. I mean, just for this alone, right? So first of all, global plus, you get the advanced webinars that are 90% of them are for global plus users. But just to get this one indicator alone, it's worth 40 bucks more a month, guys. Like what I was telling my room, like if you can't afford 40 bucks for this kind of information, then you shouldn't be trading anyway, right? You don't have the money to be trading but just fine, I'm not dissing you for not having money to trade. But you got to know where you went a lot in your money and what's worth the price and what's not. That is definitely worth $40 more a month for the pro trader webinars or the advanced webinars. And just again, for this new sweep thing that I wish I'd been using a lot sooner than this, this is well worth it, right? So you can see here, because not every setup is gonna be down here and we're coming up with ways to take advantage of these setups. One, I know these thresholds are way more than the iceberg thresholds I have. They just seem to be way more from being market affecting, right? So for instance, you see somebody dropped in a bomb, you see that big cell bubble and somebody absorbed 1200 contracts over this price range, right? So you can make these zones like you do with the, again, I haven't started doing it yet, but I'm eventually going to because I see how powerful these are too. You can see somebody dropped in huge sell orders from and they weren't stop runs, right? From 2375 all the way down to 2225. So somebody just dropped in a boatload of sell orders there. Somebody absorbed them. So once again, it's not the intention that's important. Who's right? The guy that swiped them or the guys that absorbed them, right? The white, I use black and white, white is the buy side meaning buy absorption, black is south side of absorption. So who's right? Well, you don't know until it moves out of the area, right? So you can literally start drawing zones based on, let's draw this zone. Again, I'm not trading off of these yet because I was going to spend this weekend going through these thresholds to come up with the right thresholds for each market kind of like a day of the SI indicator. But you can, let's just make this a different color. Let's make this, this will be the sweeps zone. So you can trade this just like you do a SI indicator set up, right? When I've been seeing, I've been watching this now for a couple of weeks, right? So you can wait. So say for instance, you were long, right? And then you see this and you see, the minute it gets below this, you can just get out right there. You can use this as one of your exit strategies, right? We're talking about all day how I exit, right? I may eventually incorporate sweeps as an exit strategy, meaning they sweep the book and say, if we get a half ATR below there, I'm out, right? These are just different options for you guys with this incredible information. Or you can trade, say you don't have any position on, you can say, you know what, I want to be short. I know Scott said this was a really important area. I haven't seen an SI set up, right? This is an extremely important area this market could stop, right? Boom, boom, we didn't even get up it here, but get up to it there and here and here. This is somewhere this, and we've gone straight there. This is definitely somewhere this market could pause. You can say, okay, there's no SI indicator setups, all the big guys are on, they left for Christmas. I'm going to use this sweep zone to get short so you can play the same way. Wait for a full ATR, retest failure, get short, you can put your stop right above there, half ATR above there, right? So this is still important. This is just a different way of looking, we have the SI indicator stuff, but this is still orders that came in the book, someone got ran over, someone was aggressive, someone got run over. That area is important, right? So I highly recommend you guys get the Global Plus and get this on your, because this is, again, I'm just scratching the surface with this thing. Now, I'm going to come up with a whole new, whole new setups and everything else. That's why we're already naming them like Black Mamba and I have Python and a couple other ones, but it's a work in progress, but I know this stuff is just as important with the right thresholds as the SI indicator. Okay. There's sweeps effect, but not all sweeps are stops, right? We just looked at one and ES was not a stop run. This one was, means that sellers were absorbing the buying, the stop run, there was a buy stop run that just ran over these guys, right? It just really helps you draw the zones too. Stop, stop, buy alert at CL, 225 contracts. Here's another one. We're talking about this one, but when we have a new setup, you can see, you can just literally go right to where the black dot started and where it ended. There you go. Can you hear me now, Scott? Yeah. Oh, okay. All right. Yeah, no, I just wanted to comment on this. This is why, I mean, so you guys understand what we're doing here. There's a couple of different offerings. There's Global and Global Plus. Global Plus does not have all these proprietary, Global does not have all these proprietary indicators we developed. That's part of the Global Plus. That's the main difference between the two. And if you want those, like the sweep indicator, you got to subscribe to Global Plus. Now the heat map and the volume dots, et cetera, if you want the cheaper version, then you go with Global. If you don't want those indicators, and you're not trying to upsell you on this stuff, I'm just trying to explain, like we spent a lot of time developing these things and they're proprietary. You're not gonna see these on other platforms. So that's the difference in the pricing here if you want the access to it. Just don't get bitter about the pricing. It takes some effort on our part to develop these things. So not trying to upsell you or rip you off or anything like that, but it does give additional insight as Scott is going through here. We're getting to the point where we can zoom into these levels and we can see unbelievable transparency. If you want that, then go for something more like Global Plus, and that's my main point. Hey, I'm not trying to sound like that. There's no bearing on me whether you have Global or Global Plus. I'm telling you as a trader for this information, it's definitely worth $40 more a month. It doesn't matter to me either way what you do. I'm not selling anything bookmarked by just telling you how like it is. And if you can't afford 40 bucks a month and you probably shouldn't be trading for this kind of information is what I'm telling you. This is incredible and the more I get into it, there's gonna be whole new doors open for setups and stuff like that. But all right, so this one here, we had this stop right here, the yellow zone. We saw that and I just drew this one. This was another 225. So now I'm waiting for an ATR above or below the zone and I will go long or short. So ATR is 18.4, so rounded up to 19. All right, so I wanna see 19 takes above here, which would put me at, let's say 61, that puts me at 80. Retest failure, I'll get in three quarters of an ATR there to go long or I'll do it on the short side. Again, this is the most recent setup, so I will play off of that. I wasn't gonna play off this one, but this happened after, so I'm playing off that one. See what happens with that. Seven retested this zone and yes, if we do, I will go long. So this is a good example right here, right? So do you see right here what I was just saying? So here, I mean, this was technically, this is a setup, I don't know why I didn't read it off. I have it at 700, that's why. But when you look at this on chart, so I was trying to point out for you guys before, see a thousand there, you're like, wow, this is a thousand right there. Well, yeah, I mean, this is condensed pretty much because it just happened, but this could have went through. So say the market did this, touched it, touched it, touched it, touched it, touched it over two hours, right? Well, it would eventually say E, say like 4,000, what does that mean? There was 4,000 icebergs right there and then no, it just means, I'm talking about the on chart, just means that someone, it was one house, that's not market moving information. I want a condensed area and that's what this shows you. So this is actually a new setup. So what I'm gonna do here, I'm gonna get rid of the sweeps right now because I just wanted to show you that I'm not trading off that information yet. I am trading off of this information. So you see, again, it's almost 700, that's threshold basically for me, 700, there's a 685, then you had another 300 and you can see it on chart, it was one house, right? So I'm going to incorporate all those prices. That one from there down to, so that's that buy I said just came in, right? So this did just retest this old zone and I was going to get long off that but this is something new that came in. So now I'm going to trade off this, right? So I still now have to wait for ATR retest but does it suck? Yeah, but this is the newest information that came in. I'm not going to ignore this, right? I want to trade off the newest information. So I want to see us move an ATR away from this zone now or it does fail and I'll go long and you can do that. I'm going to do the same thing on the short side depending on what happens here, right? Because this is the newest setup kind of just like we saw with crew. I'm trading off the newest information, the newest workflow that just came in, not a zone that happened an hour ago. That that it's still not important and it is more size. This black zone was a lot more size but if this is technically, if this remains bullish which it looks like it's going to then this should be bullish as well. Again, this is how you want to trade this. If you say, oh, we retested that the minute we get out of this one, I will go long, half ATR I'll go long. I don't need to see a retest of this one because I know we just retested this old one and failed. You can do that. Again, that's your prerogative as a trader. You need to figure out, but you need to be consistent, right? Before I was doing this experiment with my room I definitely would have just jumped in here. Once I saw the retest of this black zone, the failure and then the newest stuff, once it got just above there, a half ATR I would have definitely been in but this is the newest setup I'm going to wait just like I was waiting for this one to retest. Hopefully that makes sense. So gold never really got out of this zone. I've definitely never gotten ATR out of here. Waiting for that. Rude still in its most recent zone. Waiting for that. Azdex still in this trade and nothing's come in. They have a couple of sweeps here but snakes as I call them. Tell you this is going to open up a whole new window for setups, but I just have to go back and practice and look at them. And that's another great thing about Bookman but I tell you guys every day we have such power at your fingertips with this information but then you can go back and replay the day and practice. Say, okay, I'm going to just trade off snakes. What did it look like if I took, just trades off the snakes? How would I have done? What did it look like if I took just the setups off the SI indicator? You can do all that, you can replay the day. And my room members that you know, because the stuff does wear on your computer when you save a bunch of your files or you can save them in Google Drive or in my room, they have access to the Google Drive of all my days with all my products for all of 2021. So all you gotta do is bring up a random day and trade and trade, you can trade the snakes as I call them, trade the setups, whatever you want. And that's how you get good. This is guys, this is just like any other profession. If you want to play, this is just like playing a professional sport, right? You're going against the brightest minds on the planet. So it might behoove you to practice your trading and your setups to confirm if they work or not. So if you're going to try to play majorly baseball or you're just going to walk out on the field and face a guy throwing 98, you think you're going to get a hit? No chance. That's the same with this. You think you're just going to bring up your charts, throw up some zones and start trading them and think you're going to be successful? Very, I mean, if you follow my exact system, yeah, but there's going to be times where you're going to be questioning it and so like that. You got to go back for yourself and put these on in practice. Prove to yourself too, where you're not getting out of stuff and getting algoed and faked out by the moves and you trust it, right? But yeah, if you follow these zones and trade them like I'm telling you, I'm trading them right now, wait for retest failures and it's conserved them, wait for hourly ATR to get out or an opposing signal, you will make money, right? But you'll do even better, more you practice the stuff. Yeah, this is a really good point, Scott. If I can just jump in for a minute. I mean, this is, it's so funny because you realize that the moment you came to book map, you came to some of the advanced webinars, you asked questions and you know, for a few weeks and then like I didn't see you. I showed you the replay mode. I was like, here, you know, this is how you can record your data and you can replay it and learn from this. And then you just disappeared for like three weeks or a month or something. And like, and you resurfaced with a course. You know, you'd put together like a course basically and you know, you studied it and you showed it an edge and advantage from your studies. No one really does this. They just show up again at the markets every day and a lot of retail traders and they just start randomly trading. There is no edge. So yeah, it's an under-utilized feature in book map is that replay mode, record your data guys, come back and replay the days. You can record your trades as well and put them in there. So very, very powerful tool to use. So yeah, consider that one. It's incredible. I mean, again, if you're not doing that, then you're, I mean, you're behind the eight ball. Cause you're not, you know, you gotta get to a point where you trust this stuff without any questions, right? So that's how you do it. You go in and just replay the day. Again, that's how you determine how you want to plan too. You could say, I want to be an aggressive trader. If I just took these zones aggressively as speaking of which quickly, now here's a new setup, right? Now a half eight tier below here, I'm out of this one lot. That's how I traded. You see how I stayed in this trade the entire time? 16 and a half, so I'll say 17 points. So half of that, I'll round up to, well, we'll go half of that. We'll go eight and a half points. So eight and a half points below here, put to me at 03, I'm out. If it comes down to 03, then what will I do? The day I put it on the right side there, very proud of myself. So I'm not adding to my trade when I want to get out. So say this comes down, stops me out. Okay, I'm out of this trade. Great trade for this morning. And then what will I do? I'll wait for a full ATR, 18 points. If this retest and this fails, then I will short. Or what else will I do here? It will add to this trade. This goes a full ATR above here. Retest fails. I will put on two more or four more depending on my risk here. I could probably put on four now because this risk is not very, again, that's the whole other thing I'm not gonna get into right now, but you know, members of my room, they came up with this or they helped me develop this. So you can use this as, you know, you get to determine your, you can't over-trade your account, right? So, you know, if you have a $10,000 account, these are just micro contracts, right? Same contract. So if I'm risking, you know, 30 points on a Nasik trade, I could put on three big ones or three micros if my account's only $10,000, right? If you're over-trading, that's the number one thing, oh, you are not gonna make it in this game. So let's just see here quickly, 17. So this zone is about six points, five and a half points, right? And then I would have to risk a half or three quarters of an ATR. So we're saying 18, nine, so like 12 points. 12 points more would be my entry. So what I said, this was five and a half. So that's 17 and a half points. And then my stop would be half ATR. My entry would be three quarters of an ATR, plus the size of the zone, plus a half ATR below here. Five and a half, 13 and a half, and then another eight, right? Or nine. So 22 and a half points would be the total risk on this trade, right? So then you just come over here, I can actually put out more than that, I think. 20, yeah, I could put on four, just like at the 22 and a half points. And once you do this enough, you're gonna pretty much know, but 22 and a half, I could put on a four lot here, whatever way this trades, right? That is the number one things you guys need. If you don't have that spreadsheet and you can get in my room, if not, Google find a way to get a risk spreadsheet going because if you're over trading your account, you're gonna blow up. If you have a $10,000 accounting, you're trading normal e-mini contracts. You're not, I don't care if it's a one, you're not gonna make it. You cannot over trade your account size. You have a couple of bad days, your account is done. So again, I'm waiting for 18 points above here, retest failure, 18 points below here, retest failure to go short. I will put up with that top of that and then I'll enter a short, depending. I was gonna tell you guys something else too, I forgot. Crew will just happen here. Well, this was a dumb and dumber, right? Now I'll go short. Here's your stop run. We had this stop run first, then you had this one, this is the newest one. We get an ATR below here. Sure did, ATR is 18.7, so we're saying 19 ticks. Bottom of this white zone was at 52. We got down to 31, would have been an ATR, we're at 29. So how will I trade this now? The way I'm trading these conservatively, I'm waiting for a retest and a failure, then three quarters of an ATR I will be in, even though it'll be right in the middle of the zone. That's fine, because this happened after. And then I'll be short. Will I go long this setup? No, no, because we violated this to the downside in ATR. So this is no longer a possible long setup because we violated this. So then this is a dumb and dumber. Stop run puke, no follow through while the big money failure. So I'm hoping it does this. Crew does it out of any market out there. 90% of the time I won't retest this zone, but sometimes it won't. That's what I keep telling you guys, you gotta determine how you wanna trade these. You wanna get in aggressively, then it breaks, fine. Just be consistent, and this is why you wanna go back in practice to see what suits you best and what you think works better, or you wait for the retest failure. And that's what I'm gonna wait for here. Just, if I can, Scott, jump in here, since we're streaming here in Discord and it's free and open to all, there's some questions about your trading style, et cetera. One of the things that I just wanna kind of reiterate and to those that are new in here, the way Scott is trading here and looking at this is he's looking at multiple markets. So he's got like 10, 15, 18 markets open, something like that. And then he's looking for an event to occur. In this case, stops in icebergs, and then he'll go in and look at the kind of bigger picture and also the order flow. Does this now look like a good setup? And because the event has occurred, he knows from his studies, the event is what he's looking for. Therefore, he can trade as many markets as he wants. He doesn't need to focus on the S&P all day long, for example. And this is kind of the setup here. It's a little bit in reverse in essence, but is the event that matters? And then he'll home in there and look at that event and it's like, okay, do I see an edge here? Right, and you're doing yourself an extreme injustice to service if you're just staring at one market, especially if you're staring at the crappy ES all day long. You want to have multiple markets up, so when one market is doing nothing, instead of just being elbowed all day, you can move to another market, right? So a lot of times there's nothing going on, but then something will be firing off in grains, right? So then I move over to grains. You guys, it doesn't matter what market it is, volume is volume and these setups are, they work across the board in any one of these markets, silver, soybeans, wheat, bonds, you need the thresholds and that's what my, you can figure them out yourself, go back and study or that's what my course shows you, natural gas, copper, it's like it's across the board. And any futures market that you want to watch as long as you know your thresholds, it's the same stuff, it's the same patterns, it's markets reacting to real-time volume. And in this case, what we're using, the real-time volume input from the SI indicator, right? So that's it, that's what you're doing. Seems very simplistic, guys, for the thousand time, real-time volume is what drives these markets, not 45 lines on your chart and lines mean nothing unless there's real-time volume there to support that area or reject the area, right? Like I'm not saying stuff is not important, right? So like, I have the stuff, I don't use that much stuff because I try not to confuse myself, but I'll use market profile, like here's the top of a market profile right here where I'm kind of getting to in NASDAQ, like, yeah, that's important, but it's not really important unless anything fires off there, right? It's like, this is what I'm trying to show you guys are here where extreme standard deviation of E-WAP, that's important, it's way more important if you get a real-time signal there, right? And these are Ludwig levels we use in the room. Those are incredible too, but they're only, she even says it, you don't trade them in a vacuum, you don't trade any of this stuff in a vacuum, what's the separator of these areas? It's the real-time volume. So if you, you know, people just don't grasp it, they don't think it's that important and it's the number one important thing out there because the markets don't move unless there's real-time volume transacting in those areas, right? And this helps you, like I said, if you can't beat them, join them. You could see exactly what's going on, you can see, if you watch enough of these, you can say, well, what should happen? If paper is very interested in buying right here, paper, meaning the big money, the big banks, the big funds, they see the same information. You don't think they have their quants that disseminate the CME-MBO data? They have this information too, they're mad that we have it, I guarantee it, they can't be happy about it, but now we're on the same playing field. So who have you to know, hey, okay, there's a stop run, would the real money jump up and keep pushing it? Because the big money sees the same thing, if they're that interested in buying right here, they would have just, this is their green light. Okay, here's a big puke, let's just jump on and keep pushing it. Did they jump on and keep pushing it? No, instant failure. That's very important information to know, right? It's the information to know, right? So we're getting close to a retest failure here, or retest, there's your retest of the zone, again, crude, number one, 90% of the time it'll come back to the zone, there's your zone, here's your retest, do I just jump in now? No, now I wait for it, because this can go right back through here. But the likelihood of that happening is not real good because why didn't it do it the first time? That's the way I look at it. So now if this comes back three quarters of an ATR, I will be short this market. So again, ATR is 18, so half of 18 is nine, and half of that is four and a half, so add those together, 13 and a half, and there's no half ticks in here. So we'll say 14, 14 ticks below this zone, I am short. Bottom of this zone is, we'll say 52, in between there, but it's closer to 52. So 14 ticks below there is 38. That's where I will go short and it's good because it's right below this first zone too, I like that. I don't like shorting in the prior zone, the middle of prior zone. So if I get filled on this, short, now my stop will go half ATR, so nine ticks above here, and then I'll let this work and I'll hold it the same way you saw me hold the Nasdaq trade. Speaking of which, did I get stopped out? Nope, not yet. Still in the zone, and I could add to this trade. So that's how I'm trading it, and that's all I do all day long. You just wait for your setups in each market, the markets you're watching, and you trade them. It doesn't matter if it's crude, if it's silver, or if it's beans, it's all the same stuff. It's volume, it's traders that are caught in a certain area, you're trading the area, whoever was right, whoever was wrong. That's what you're doing, that's what I'm doing. All right, first I'm gonna, I'm out of gas, any other questions? No, that was good though. That was a good ramp. I mean, it's like, I know you're, I can hear you, you know, when you first came on, you're sick, you don't have much energy, but man, it's impressive, you pick it up, and wow, you're running out of gas. And anyway, thank you, Scott. And I hope you feel better. Everyone's saying in here like Merry Christmas, and thank you. So, you know, we'll take a break here. And I don't know if we're gonna do next week or not, actually, we might just take the week off on webinars. Anyway, we'll think about it, and yeah, put your feelers in here guys, or what you guys think, but might as well, there's not gonna be a whole lot going on. I don't think, but anyway. I'll be in my room, I'm not taking any time off, so wanna do it, I'll do it, it's not a big deal. Okay, yeah, maybe we'll just do your webinar, maybe Jay Trayger's webinar. We'll take a look here and figure it out. We'll let you guys know. So, we may even do it in here again next week, you know, and free and open to all. Not sure how we're gonna do it, but anyway. Yeah, thanks again, Scott, and Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas to you. Thanks guys, I hope you learned something today. That's the whole point, to learn how to do this yourself. I'll see you guys next week. Appreciate it. Okay, bye-bye. Where is it, if you can't know what you're doing?
