What’s going on guys so today was I don’t know today was a hit or miss type of day um you know I’ll start off real quick my takeprofit Trader accounts basically I stopped right before my daily draw down was hit so this is almost done and then you know they’re on life support that I can tell you I’m going to need a a pretty good day in both of these accounts to get them back up this one’s a funded account um

Yeah just ugly not following my rules doing stuff I shouldn’t have done and I got I got smacked yep it is what it is and then uh volumetrica this is my funded Futures oh there already took my p&l away that’s weird this one was up like one was up 400 bucks one hit the daily loss this hit the da loss limit and this one that was close to a payout uh hit the daily loss limit so that wasn’t good at all

This account 85 which is a funded account was down two grand and I made back 800 bucks um I started copy trading three accounts so I actually nuked these three accounts this morning and then these three accounts are are up um I am going to be testing out a couple new strategies going forward um before I throw it out there so you guys start you know if anybody follows me or what I don’t want to put that out yet but I

Am going to trade um I typically don’t trade so like 10 o’clock I’m going to start trading before and I’m just going to test a couple things out that I think might work and um you know once I get to back test it and forward test I will throw it out uh I’ll probably talk about it on the stream before I even make a video about it so I mean that’s pretty much where I’m at with that um oh talking about

The stream we’re streaming live every day from 1:30 till the end of the day so if you’re around come on we’re uh here on YouTube so it’s free uh and uh yeah you can watch all this craziness of trading um this account just these accounts man I need to get I need to get these going um you know I can get this back as long as the draw Down’s over 1,000 bucks I’m not that worried you know that’s kind of where

I’m at um if the draw down is man some of these are beat up though that’s kind of why I was getting I got some evals though because I noticed I’ve been taking some hits now what’s crazy is if you go to uh I was trading in FasTrack and FasTrack I ended up doing awesome today at a but these other bouns I’m getting smoked in just uh it’s so interesting to see so I’m trading fast track on uh Quant Tower so

I don’t know if it has to do with the different charting I have available available to myself or what but I’m growing those accounts at a better rate than um than Apex for whatever reason uh I’m going to do the account balance and let me just so here’s here’s my p&l for the day I mean look at this two accounts are down three accounts I didn’t trade the reason I didn’t trade those was they had rhythmic issues yesterday and I was

Waiting for them to be reset and then the rest of this is all up look 280 300 300 305 I’m like a completely different Trader like if you look at what’s going on over here I’m getting smoked not you know my gains are small and then you look over here and it’s you know obviously these are brand new because you could see up 280 up 280 but you know these 50ks are up 270 500 500 and then um these three were

Brand new or these two were brand new at least and they’re up this one was brand new that’s up these I’m working back up which are just about even and then my 150s are about halfway to payment I think I need to get to 75 I need to get to up 7500 and I’m up about three grand uh what sucks is I was up 790 in these accounts and I went from up 790 to uh to down 250 to and then

Once I got it up to about 400 I uh I said I’m done for the day I’m not I’m not going to risk I just I just made it all back plus uh I’m done and then um yeah so I mean that’s where I’m at I think I don’t know I need to refine what I’m doing what I’m doing is really good I am taking too many trades in chop so if you look on the one minute I was taking too

Many trades I was taking trades like in this chop area um I was just not taking the trades where I should be taking them just cons consolidation not just bad bad stuff um I did get caught in one of these dropdowns I think it was this one I forget what I did but I definitely got caught and I was looking for this one because it was going to sweep the liquidity here and then pop through and I ended up taking it

Long over I took it long at like 19,600 and I just didn’t hold long just a couple things that I’ve noticed have been messing me up lately and I just feel like I need to make a couple tweaks and as you could see this is a whole new uh you’re seeing new new tabs new things on my I’m just trying I’m not looking to change things I’m looking to implement new things to kind of double and triple check that what I’m

Getting into is where I want to get into it and it’s going to go the way I think it’s going to go and uh I’m just playing around with new indicators and things like that uh nothing here is set in stone I was just some of these indicators people were telling me to bring up on the stream so I was just adding them on uh I don’t really know what I’m going to finish with but I’ve been using um I’ve been

Using this setup actually if you take this out this is kind of this is what I’ve been using I literally just added this [Music] um I just added that I don’t know right before I started making this video so I’m going to play with it uh that’s the inverted uh gaps I I don’t know I’m playing with it and we’ll see what happens uh I don’t know if that’s a script I’m going to settle on um I was just kind of

Uh you know just kind of playing around seeing what’s what after hours and that’s pretty much it but you know I don’t like that it’s so much um I like to keep my charts clean so uh we’ll just see what happens but other than that um today was like I said I did awesome in fast trck apex not that great and then uh take profit Trader and my funded Futures uh you know eh so we’ll be back at it tomorrow on
