What’s up Traders so one of the biggest questions I get is what’s the best account size to get in Apex Trader funding or in other platforms obviously platform to platform things might um change based on um trailing thresholds profit goals and uh things like that but right now I’ll just stick to uh Apex Trader funding so I would say that if you’re new to trading I would probably say the uh the 50 not even the 50k I’d probably say 25k trade

Of8 plan is is the best I say trade of8 because you don’t have to download rhythmic Trader Pro you don’t have to set that up you don’t have to uh do all that it’s super easy web based it’s the simplest way to get going is using trade of8 um I say the 25k account because the profit goal is, 1500 trailing threshold is, 1500 that’s a one to one it’s pretty simple um this is the best one to get into it says

Contract size four is the biggest listen if you’re trading four contracts um you shouldn’t even be trading four contracts when it comes to this honestly you should probably be trading one contract because 10 points with one contract is 200 bucks and basically that’s like uh what is it eight trades um would get you with a 10-point profit Target would get you the goal um you know I would say that this is the best one for newer people now me personally I

Trade the 50s because you almost still have the one: one but it’s double the profit goal um you know which is not a problem because I could I normally trade uh probably three to five minis uh at a time five minis at 10 points is 1,000 bucks so I only have to make three trades and basically or three three trades winners and um I’m at the goal actually I hit the goal pretty quick on the 50 I have no issue passing

Currently I’m passing probably one out of every two so that’s not really an issue at all also got to remember real quick so I can touch on it it’s not 187 a month they’re always running a deal actually right now is 90% off and this one is only $18 so you know 18 bucks gets you this account um let’s just look at some of the other ones real quick I don’t think you know this the profit goal jumps dramatically it jumps

1,200 and the trailing threshold only goes up $250 that to me is not worth it you it means you have to get $1,250 more dollars and it only gives you 250 Less on the draw down that’s not really uh great in my book the 100K I think is the worst one um trailing threshold is only $500 more dollars than the 50k but the profit goal is actually double and now you have a 2 to1 profit goal is twice as high as

The threshold and you’re not really getting um yeah I’m going to talk about the capital and everything after I go through uh the rest I would say if you’re going to shoot for something 150 is pretty good um as you can see the trailing threshold jumps 2,000 bucks which is nice and the profit goal only goes up uh it goes up 3,000 but that’s a 50% jump on profit goal but the trailing threshold goes up way more than 50% so you

Know if you’re looking for a bigger account than 50s or 25 the 150 is a good spot um with 17 contracts you could probably pass this in two trades I I’ve done it um you know it it’s not it’s hard for newer newer people and this one’s the absolute worst they’re pushing the 250s right now so if you pass it’s only $85 one time fee um but listen you got to get 15 grand of profit and the trailing threshold is only

6,500 so that’s more than a 2: one um this is the hardest one to pass once you’re pass you still have to do $6,600 uh to pull money out um I would say also just remember so with the 250 just say you get oh 250 everyone’s like oh 250 you can only pull out $3,000 a month with the 50k you could still pull out $2,000 a month and the 50ks are you pass that with $3,000 of profit this you need $115,000

A profit so it’s so much easier to stack up like five I can get 5 50ks over um with $115,000 of profit well $155,000 of profit year would only get me one account 550s I could pull out 10,000 bucks 125 uh 250 I can only pull out three grand and you’re going to say oh well after three months you could pull out whatever well the same goes to the 50s so say you start with a 50k account and after three months

I’ve scaled that to 70 grand I can pull out the 20,000 bucks um you know 250 same thing you scale it up to 200 70,000 you can still pull out 20 grand once you get out of the buffer in the beginning you could pull out any amount of money as as you want you got to just be trade for three months um I think a the smaller accounts are where to go the probability of you passing and pulling money out are

Far superior than going after these large accounts and to be honest with you it it’s only giving you extra ,000 of of pull out money a month for three months so and then once you’re out of the weeds and like say your 50k account goes to 60,000 you could go and start trading big numbers at like 10 contracts 10 contracts at 10 points is two grand so you can scale that 50k account up really fast really really fast so I would

Say stick with the 50s or the the reason I say 50 over 25 25 is easy to hit a $155,000 draw down in the beginning but I guess once you’re out of the woods um you know and say you turn this two you know 25k into uh I don’t know say 30,000 your draw down is like 5K so you’re in the same boat as the rest of them you have a 5k draw down now and you can trade whatever you want

You just can’t go over four contracts um you you know you can still do damage four contracts is 800 bucks every 10 points but on the 50s you can go up to 10 and you can really start doing damage um that’s why I like the 50s and that’s why you see a lot of Traders doing the 50s so I would probably say 50s is the best one once you’re a little seasoned but if you’re brand new I would go with the

250s um there’s a 30% consist rule so it’s like 300 and something bucks a day you can’t go over in the beginning but that’s pretty much it so if you have any questions about the accounts comment below be sure to follow and I hope uh you guys understand this a little bit more

TopstepX – What My Journey On TopStep Showed Me

Transcript

What’s going on fellow Traders so I’m doing the top step X followup and you know I’m always open with everything I do here so I just wanted to update you guys on my top step Journey um basically as you can see all the accounts have been smoked um I learned so basically I trade mostly with the Apex um bullox because their draw down for the total is 2,500 um and the majority of my daily draw down is over 2,000 because I

Keep making games um you know and I will have days where I go down 1,400 bucks but then make it back and the issue with top step is once you hit the $1,100 draw down for the day the account’s done so there’s sometimes that I’m actually in a trade it goes down 1100 I stay in the trade and that trade turns around and comes back green um that doesn’t work in TOP Step um I think I would approach TOP Step a

Lot differently if I’m probably going back to using them so what happened was Apex ran a sale uh bullnox had a sale so I had all these accounts and right now I’m sitting on I think 11 funded accounts uh a lot of evals because they are super cheap they’re only like $16 right now if you use rhythmic on apex so I kind of moveed to that platform a lot but I actually love trading on the top step X platform the best

So it’s like you know it is what it is but I think next time I go around I’m going to trade it a little bit differently and by that so I play a lot of like uh you know bounces off of pivot Points and things like that or uh you know sometimes I’ll even do uh Wick tests so you see I Get Wicked here I’ll you know buy the test down and you know look for a bounce but when happens is

I end up um I create zones when I get in so argument s like say they may not even let me do it do it let me see if I can even limit by no order rejected so I’ll just do it like argument sake I’ll put an order here you know say I want to get in like around this Zone because this is the like a wick test say we dropped you know maybe I would go you know one one here

One there say we drop below one and then I would say hey look we’re too close to you know 800 I’m probably going to buy one more here well the issue is if I get filled on all of these um and we drop to maybe like you know 794 I’m going to be I’m going to hit my daily draw down but the odds are we’re going to go through this we’ll probably sweep under 800 and then we’re going to go right

Back up and that’s how I was trading that because that’s how I trade Apex and I kept on hitting my daily loss limit um and that was pretty much the end of my accounts I I got stopped out quite a bit of times like that and literally 15 minutes later we’re back I would have been green and it just it is what it is so I think I got to be more cautious about the daily loss limit and maybe not either

Play this in micros instead of four minis do like uh you know five five55 which would equal two uh micros but you’d have 20 minis so I might do it that way or I might just do two um two minis no micros instead of instead of the four um but yeah I mean four or five is typically my eval size in Apex or bull KNX so I kind of got kind of tried doing that over here it just kind of didn’t

Work um I got it actually the daily dra down isn’t even 1100 it’s 1,000 bucks you can see it right here so that’s that’s pretty tight when I’m used to it being 2,000 plus so I was getting caught when I was making my I guess you you know my trades buying you know in my zones um so it is what it is I love their platform I highly suggest anybody do use it um I have a a link in my description

If you want to support the channel um but yeah I I I really like what they did here they basically Ed trading view charting um everything’s pretty pretty nice um IED trading view normal normally so it’s this is what I wanted to see um yeah so I think what I’m going to do is once the sales on apex stop I’ll see where I end up with my funded accounts things like that and then I’m probably going to get uh one or

Two TOP Step accounts again most likely next month and um and and go about this with a smaller size because what I want to do is I want to pass like everybody else but once you’re funded you can take money out um quickly I think it’s like five days of 200 plus so I would be I would be taking payouts right now in my funded accounts in Apex and bullnox but I haven’t because I didn’t reach the profit goal yet while

TOP Step um I would have been there there so I think smaller size you know even though it’s a 50k it’s really not a 50k I got to treat it almost like a 25k account and then you just hope where your first trade of the day hits and say you hit for 500 bucks well now you have $1,500 draw down that maybe you could take a bigger shot um but they do have consistency rules also you can’t do over uh can’t

Do over $1,500 a day in their evals so that’s where I’m at I think um I’m going to give it another shot once uh Apex is done with their sales I’m also going away next week so I don’t really want to start something new like this um but as of platforms to use uh TOP Step X is the best one I think it’s their it’s their own thing and they use they piggy back off trading view um but yeah I mean

That’s what it is I I I got I got my eval smoked um if you want to follow along my other Journeys look at my other videos I’m always open on what I’m making what I’m not making when I get the accounts blown up and it’s just part of the journey you know so it is what it is I am looking forward to being back probably about probably about two weeks I’ll start getting accounts on top top St X and um

We’ll keep it rolling I I want to get a funded account here and I want to play around and I think it would be pretty fun with a smaller size um just another challenge so if you guys are on this platform comment below let me know your thoughts but yeah I’ve loved it so far

Weekly Prop Firm Trading Recap – Apex Trader Funding – TopStepx – Bulenox

What’s going on fellow Traders so this is the weekly update I know I put up daily updates talk about the day individually but some people can’t catch up every single day so I’m going to make the weekly video on the weekends so if you missed a couple days you only have to watch one video and you’re caught up so yeah Apex is running their deal um it’s $18 for 50k account on trade of8 and it’s like 16 bucks for it on

Rhythmic um I used both because in the very beginning uh trade of eight was so backed up with new accounts that um couldn’t really get a new account for a day or two so I opened up rhythmic on my laptop uh I have it on my main computer but I have my bullnox accounts there so I had to get another I don’t know why Apex wanted me to uninstall rhythmic Trader Pro if I used it with another brokerage but um yeah

So that’s the deal I have it on my laptop and I have the uh the other one on my computer so to do a quick rundown of the money earned um this is where we’re at on bullnox uh this account in the middle that you see is only up I don’t know maybe like 200 bucks all week which is not a lot um this one is pretty much the same for the week and then this one is actually down on the

Week only because yesterday I took a $1,400 loss on it um other than that it would have been up just kind of got away from me on a low volume trading day and it is what it is I also have another bull KNX account you can only have three funded accounts so I have one sitting in the wings that’s already pushed over um I just need to get one of these to 50 2,600 or if I blow one up I have

The other one to fill in um and then good news on uh what do I call it Apex Trader funding we have one two three four funded accounts on trade ofate and I also have one two three funded accounts on rhythmic Trader Pro and I also have two funded accounts I haven’t signed um the sheet or paid for honestly I didn’t do it because it’s a Friday and we don’t the full trading day is until Tuesday so I didn’t want to

Do it today and just kind of waste four days out of the month because there is a monthly fee so I’m just going to pay for it on Monday save myself a couple days so at the end of uh this week I have 1 two three four five six 7 three in here which is 10 and I have two more on the way I’ll have 12 funded accounts on Tuesday um this account is up on the week uh 12230 bucks pretty

Much this one’s up a bit and then this one’s brand new up 500 so overall we’re up a lot we have a lot of new accounts basically Apex ends their thing on Friday next week I believe and so you know I’m getting my evals over I’m getting funded and just pushing this whole thing along so it’s been pretty good I’m going to just keep going um getting the evals they’re cheap now they’re actually half price so I am going to stick

With doing that um and just keep passing them really uh passing them now and then working on the funded accounts a little bit and then once their deal is up basically put all my focus in just funded accounts um payouts and just keep going on that that train that that’s really what I’m focused on um so yeah just kind of going through the week getting them over basically I’m averaging one to two a a day over pass rate is approximately 50%

The only reason it’s 50% is I’ll randomly take a 10 lot uh mini for a move and probably also uh to follow up with the top step accounts um I know I’ve made videos about them in the past that is done for now um to be honest uh the deli draw down of a th000 was just no that it wasn’t working cuzz basically um I made a video about it but argument sake say I think we’re going to retest these Wicks

I’m used to doing um I can’t even place the trade here but I’m used to making a grid if you’ve watched me I I’ll make a grid from like 60 all the way down to 50 or maybe 45 and I’ll just add about three or four contracts and create a Zone like a buying Zone um when I do that with step I get I get stopped out and I think what I’m going to do Apex is running the deal so they

Can’t beat the pricing so being that I can’t beat the Apex pricing I’m just going to work on apex and then once Apex prices go back up I’ll probably take a shot at top step and I might even try to take profit Trader um make some videos about that see what they they have going on but that’s the deal I basically go wherever is the rules are good and I know I’m going to get paid you know bullnox had their deal

So I went with them I got the the funded accounts there and then obviously Apex has their deal so I’m over there um you know earning earning there and then just keep it rolling and then once they raise their prices back up where 50k is like 40 bucks I might just spend the extra $9 and get a top step or a couple top steps to try to get that one over because I like how their payouts are every five days or

It’s like five days of trading $200 a day in profit you could you can withdraw I like that and also I’ll probably give TOP Step a try they have you can withdraw day one as long as you make like 2,000 something dollars but outside of that um you can withdraw I think like every day so I think um you know once you hit 52,600 after that you can withdraw every day um I’m probably going to give that a shot also but

The deals at Apex are too good to pass up currently so I’m going to just keep rolling with this keep getting these accounts over I like the rules the best for that and then basically um you know just continue here until they raise the prices back up but you know when it ends on Thursday I’ll probably get a bunch of evals load my account up you know the goal is to trade 20 funded accounts with Apex and with them I have

Three two that are coming is the mix five and the six seven eight nine so I have nine with a Apex I’d like to make it 15 at least by the end of the week next week and then um like I said just focus on them I’m not copy trading because I don’t want to blow up two or three accounts at a time I also tried to copy trade I did manage groups I made one and I bought nine contracts thinking

I was in three in three different uh evals and I actually it gave me nine contracts inside this funded account and I made 59 52 bucks real quick but you can see I went up real fast a lot as you can see the draw down um you know this account was up another $900 but that’s cuz I was in nine contracts and didn’t realize it the manage group didn’t work correctly so I’m not copy trading but um um going forward I

Think on the next couple payouts I will I will spring for a Quant Trader I guess it’s Sierra charting and um they use their copy trading platform and that’s probably how I’m going to go about in the future so if you have any questions about everything this is the weekly wrapup um things are going great over here getting more funded accounts daily and working the funded accounts up um if you want to look at my strategies I have tons of videos

About that so comment below see how you guys are doing hope you guys are passing accounts and getting funded as well um pulling money out and hope things are good over there all right take it easy

250k Apex Trader Funding Challenge – Almost Passed

Transcript

Auto-generated from the video audio — expect imperfect punctuation.

What’s going on so I am trying to do the Apex 250k challenge account they obviously made a big deal about it um when they’re offering the $85 onetime fee I wanted to try it I got close on one I was at 261,000 and I ended up blowing the account um it’s not necessarily blown the account I just hit the draw down I obviously when I hit the draw down the account was still up um but here I am right now I

Have about $1,700 to go I was up 4,000 today my draw down is 5,500 which means I was almost $700 away I am uh you know it’s I’m I’m right there I can taste it so basically I’ve been playing two contracts on moves I’m like eh about and I’ve gone as high as actually my first trade was 27 contracts it was yesterday and um let’s see if I can find it real quick so yesterday Thursday I want to say it was

Right around here it was somewhere here yeah it was on this big drop yesterday it was either on this or when one of these Wick down when it not not on the news it was uh it was one of these and I went 27 contracts in and I made about I want to say I made about $5,000 on that and then I said you know what I’m up five grand I’m not playing around like that and then I made some other

Trades and got it up I think I ended around 9,000 up yesterday and then today I added another 4,000 bucks um you could see I did some stupid stuff like I don’t even know why I you know and you know what I I was in at the bottom here and I didn’t hold it long enough and I was playing I should just followed the Tren down to be honest with you um I was [Music] playing some of the wick tests on

Um so like when we came down here I figured we were going to balance at 8 800 which would have been this Wick test and it would have been close enough to the pivot point and we actually just sold right through it um so yeah that hurt me I had to make some of my money back and things like that but overall this 250 pass is probably the hardest um account there is to pass it doesn’t make sense um you know

If you think about it a 50k you have to make 3,000 and the draw down is 2500 it’s about even the 20 the 250k I mean I got to make $115,000 and my draw down is only6 500 which means the draw down I have to make more than double the draw down which is crazy um but here I am I’m I’m doing it this is the last 250 I’m going to get I’m only did it because it was it was only

$18 or 16 bucks whatever it was um you know I it’s just the numbers don’t really make sense but once you’re funded I truly believe that I can do some big damage because I think you only need to get like 5600 for a payout and the draw down is still 6500 which is nice um and also you start playing with bigger numbers which means you know if I have some good days and I go up you know 15,000 for the week

I know I can’t pull out 15,000 but I can really pad the account over the thre Monon span that when I’m allowed to finally take out my big one it could be a massive Payday for me and that’s kind of um you know the Allure about it why I want to do it and also everyone was talking about it so I figured why not give it a shot and um and go after it so you know tomorrow I’m probably going to

Play it tight because I only need $1,700 more dollars um I could have done so many chances today honestly like if you just I know it’s so stupid to say but like you could have just taken the short and done it um I don’t know I played a bunch of different you know times through the day and um I don’t know it is what it is we were up today lot of opportunities to pass it I didn’t take it but I

Feel like I’m in a good spot where tomorrow I can pump it over get funded for this is my this will be my first $250,000 um doll account funded which is exciting um and yeah and that’s pretty much it so that’s where we’re at I hope anybody else that’s doing this is doing well if you’re trying the challenge comment and be sure to subscribe and uh you see my videos tomorrow all right take it easy guys

Solid trade to Put This Account Up $2,295 On The Day

So I’m going to go over this trade setup today so I got in this um basically cuz it was pulling back to the 9 and we were kind of flagging um flagging right here and uh you can see I got in I put my stops and uh my take profits right there um yeah this is an eval I’ve been pushing up today at the end of this trade I’m pretty good in it but you can just see how it was working

Itself up and um it was looking it was looking strong and um it just almost gets me out right there I can’t believe that happened actually so now I’m just like oh come on push it one more time um you know and then of course it it tests me right here by giving up all the gains almost almost and now I’m kind of like oh what did I do but I know I still like it we’re staying above the nine we’re

Uh above the previous candle it it’s still looking good you know I do I don’t like that the stochastics are starting to turn down I was getting kind of worried about it but I felt like if we held the bottom of the previous candle I will stay in this trade and um you know it still looks like a flaggy to me so I stuck in and uh sure enough it’s paid off here as you could see um pretty solid Gainer and

Then I just kind of uh you know exit all

This is one of my favorite setups to play, pop to consolidation and then another leg up.

So I just want to go over why I took this trade today so you can see kind of how it came up and then it basically just bull flagged off the bottom um perfectly like that and we were basically over the 34 um we were holding there and this was I like this setup where we come off the bottom we make a higher low we kind of flag out um it’s kind of like a stage one base and then um yeah

And then it kind of just ramps up another leg up um this was like Prime setup prime prime um I played this in a couple of my accounts that I have this is just the one that’s on the screen um yeah I mean I should have went all all in but I did um purchase like I said in multiple accounts I probably had I don’t know maybe 20 contracts total and um being a slow trading day I was kind of worried

Volume is lower today it being Friday before Memorial day but yeah this just played out perfectly anytime I see these setups I um I always hit it pretty hard and um um yeah this just worked out worked out really well as you can see up 400 and then all of a sudden it takes the real leg up um kind of like the breakout of the flag and um you know you can see the The Profit goes over 1,000 bucks at one

Point I don’t know the exact number I I sold out at um but you can see the p&l at the bottom left goes over 1100 at one point and I think I get out um slow computer you know

What’s going on fellow Traders so today was an okay day nothing uh nothing great nothing too bad um I’ll start off of the money first I guess [Music] um let me uh bring this over here these are my bullnox funded accounts obviously I took a shellacking on this one um I was forcing I was down 500 and I was forcing to make the money back and um I don’t even want to say I went on tilt um being that there was

No volume in the market I probably shouldn’t have even played it that much I probably should have just said listen I’m down 400 whatever I turned 400 into minus 1600 and literally you can just see that um you know we really weren’t going anywhere and I got faked out a couple times um just kind of missed entries on you know it was it was not great on that account um this PA accounts up 100 bucks this PA account I think was

About [Music] even I meant to do this earlier um this was up a little bit and then this new account was actually up 52 bucks I just got that one today which is uh which is nice um what else did I get I got one over I got a couple Pas that are up this one’s up 700 this is my big one I took about $2,000 loss in in the 250k one today and then I got a bunch of these that

One got smoked this one’s up a th000 this one I got over this one’s almost over and then that one smoked um and then I have rhythmic so you saw rhythmic with bull KN on my computer Apex wants you to have their own downloaded version so that’s why I have this on my laptop um I can’t show it to you but um one of my one of my funed accounts was down 65 bucks um one was down one was up 340

And my last one was up 165 5 and then let’s see if I got any any I got another account over so that’s two accounts over I got [Music] today uh see anything else happened it’s about even I didn’t even trade that didn’t even trade that didn’t even trade that so I actually got two more funded accounts today um so it’s three six 78 N9 10 and the two more bring me to uh 12 funded accounts and then I have the

One in the wings in bullx so yeah things are getting uh interesting I am curious I didn’t get my email about these yet so that’s why I was just kind of um 308 oh yeah oh I got my email for so okay I’m not going to sign um my funded ones because we can’t trade until um basically Monday night so I don’t want to pay for the monthly today when I could pay three days later so I’m going to wait a

Little bit um and that’s pretty much it that that was the MoneyWise is definitely good I’ll be honest with it was a weird day like I’ll just be real super weird day um I played you know this was pre-market I didn’t play that I think I played a bounce somewhere around here um and I think I played like a 34 bounce and I didn’t make many trades to be honest with the only like if you look one one two obviously I

Traded this a lot but other than that um I played this big drop um other than that it was like that 58 is literally just scalping and I got hosed scalping only because you could just see like when it goes up it comes down it’s very choppy even when we were going up it’s very choppy um it’s not if you look at previous days you don’t get chopped like that you get a more uh consistent feel I guess um see how

Like you know it’s kind of like you know kind of goes well this is in the morning like you know you going to drop and then you go like the candles are more full while like today’s candles are very eh very choppy did not like the price action today um not only did I not like the price action today like we couldn’t even come up and hit a pivot point uh I didn’t even play this pivot I actually I did I

Played this Pivot Point rejection right here and I actually missed it on the way up so I didn’t even get a lot of it in there but you look you can see it rejected and dumped um I kind of missed it because it was right at 9:45 and I don’t trade um I don’t trade the beginning of the the day I wheat so it was kind of uh I don’t know really wasn’t good I just kind of you know didn’t do

Much but yeah I missed it I caught it on the way down played it a little bit and that was it um this runup was super nice I got a little bit of it but like I said I didn’t really do much um I don’t really like when volume’s low and then we I thought we were going to chop here to be honest with you push up to at least this pivot point and we just couldn’t get there and then and

Then just kind of rolled over um I don’t know I I didn’t really see it once we were up here I didn’t really see the market all that well and you could see these candles you know down back up down back up down down back up like it’s just these are some big chops so I don’t know we’re off basically Monday the Market’s open on Monday but it closes at I think noon um either noon or or 1:00 I got to

Look I’m probably not going to trade to be honest with you I’ll probably be back trading Tuesday um looking to Apex deal goes on until next Friday so I’m basically focusing on passing more accounts and try to get as close to maybe 15 or 20 accounts over and then basically not play any evals and just play funded accounts going forward um but yeah I think listen overall was a decent day I got a lot of funded accounts up and um that

One took a bath so all I got to do is I got to focus on that the one that took a bath I got to focus on a real solid play on Tuesday and try to get you know 800 bucks back in there and I’ll be right back on track the good news about um bullnox is it’s a onetime fee for funded accounts so I could take as long as I want and I’m perfectly fine um I don’t have to worry

About time so it is what it is and I will uh I’ll focus on getting that account back up but I hope you guys had a good day um you know I’m going to put out some content of things my thoughts um some of the options I’ve been trading and uh just take a look over the weekend be sure to subscribe like the video and uh hope you guys had a good day thanks

What’s up everybody just going over my trade plan for uh Thursday uh May 23rd just looking at everything um some of the things that I don’t like is we’ve come up with a cell signal on zero lag right around here as you can see the purple um obviously you can have a cell signal and still go up um you know we’ve hit cell signals here and then you can see you know we came down just literally like one day and then

You can continue going up the one thing that worries me is how much we’ve gone up already and we’re going to hit the summer months um I could see us just drifting through the summer up or or turning around and just kind of drifting down um I do think we need a pull back there’s a lot of gaps you can see a lot of gaps to be filled um the issue that’s hard is like Nvidia came out with earnings and they

Smashed it so it’s kind of hard to be like oh well the earnings aren’t great we’re going to be pulling back so you know with regards to earnings they’ve been pretty good so it’s hard to say that’s going to make the the pull back um geopolitical stuff might cause a pullback maybe Israel middle some Middle East stuff uh could cause a a pullback I mean we haven’t caught rates so I mean you know that hasn’t even caused the pullback so I

Don’t really know right now um I’m out of pretty much all my Longs uh the last 5 days so so all my long-term options are kind of uh done here I’m not saying like if we pull back maybe you know I don’t know maybe like 5% I’d probably re-evaluate a lot of things um I trade intraday on Futures which I’ll get into now um this is just my daily perspective I just take a look at the uh overall market and then

When I come into the the de some of the levels I’ll be looking at um I kind of want to see we’ll go to the NQ NQ is trading currently so obviously earnings happened this is why you should have pivot Points up earnings popped literally right to this Pivot Point right there perfectly it doesn’t get more perfect look at that right there you could have shorted it right off the Pivot Point boom could have got yourself 91 I mean it’s over

100 points so so here we are today pivot Points are out you know I would love us to go up and kind of hit this pivot point because this one is around um 19,000 which we all know is going to be well first of all it’s a psychological level plus you have the pivot point this would be a great short we hit 19,000 and then kind of reject down maybe 100 points or so I don’t know what the night’s going to

Bring currently I usually go over my trade plans at night and then I review the the next day in the morning um more nights we don’t really move that much but obviously Nidia earnings You Know Anything Could Happen um I also review the economic calendar so what we have for tomorrow is actually we have initial jobless claims in the morning and that could move the market um so that’s at 8:30 in the morning I’ll be watching that and that might set

The tone for the day a lot of times if we do get a flash dump on initial dless claims will make that whole ground up so if we get that dump to uh maybe this pivot point which would also be a good support because it’s right around uh 18 800 that would be a nice spot to uh grab Longs it’s just kind of what I’m looking at this pivot point I’ll probably ignore through the night it’s not really uh what I’m

Looking for but if we get here here or here during initial jobless claims or overnight I’m going to put some orders but that’s a pretty sizable move for overnight action um but yeah that that’s currently what I’m targeting you can see we we have a sell signal in the 5 minute I don’t really follow them after hours I look at the higher time frames and when we go to like maybe like the hourly um we did present the Buy signal but

The issue is we’re hitting the hourly Pivot Point not saying we can’t blow it through that um it would probably be cool if it came down filled this Gap and then back up this Gap is almost at uh 18800 which is also close to the pivot point so that’s a pretty good spot for a buy that would be a a pretty good spot you know the Zone would be 18 6 16 to [Music] 18800 if we drift down overnight or on

Initial uh jobless claims so that’s what I’m looking for out of the NQ um back to the earnings I mean earnings have been great um AI I guess is is real I just I look at the uh you know price per you know the earnings for share and everything I just think VI is just a rich company right now like they’re doing the 10 to1 split but I don’t think you’re going to get 3x on the company over the next you

Know call it seven years um I think a lot of that is priced in and sure you might be able to get you know get another 100% out of it maybe but there’s just better opportunities out there at this point um I just think you need a good pullback on it and um I don’t know if you’re going to get it we might just kind of drift up it is what it is I’m not playing it as for options land um

Here’s you know a lot of my uh a lot of my things I’m looking at I I know deak reported after hours I am a big fan of their shoes um that’s a really good company I’m going to dive more into the company side over the weekend because it’s just hard to do um you know it’s definitely hard to do during the week at night especially when I trade uh Futures all day basically options for me is any of my alerts

That go off and any large option sweeps other than that I do my company research over the weekend I’ll say I I post the video for a little chunk of it but um I go through all my charts I go through earnings and that’s basically done Saturday morning for about 3 hours 4 hours and um you know typically 8:00 to 11: I’ll go through everything charts only taking about 20 minutes and the rest is diving into earnings and you know kind

Of Trends and things like that so that’s my trade plan for tomorrow um for th you know which is Thursday and uh company-wise with with options um I didn’t really buy anything today I sold um I had a silver put and a EMP pH uh long calls both hit massive um I talked about EMP early earlier on in in the day and I talked about silver puts yesterday so you know take a uh take a look I’m not look like right

Now I don’t have anything on my radar um it’ll just be large option sweeps for um all way to the weekend to uh do some resech research and uh that’s pretty much it so that’s the trade plan that’s my thoughts of the day and um see what happens hope you guys are making money

What’s going on fellow Traders so yeah today was a crazy day we basically uh basically hit a little over 19,000 and then it was just a serious rejection from there on out um look at this day I mean I took a shot at a short at 19 and U kind of got stopped out um but wow that would have been crazy uh when I got stopped out I just kind of assumed that we were going to kind of keep going up

After uh the initial jobless claims so I just kind of said whatever and then I don’t really trade um right off the bat so you know just didn’t work out for me but today was a pretty decent day um this is a funded account up 608 bucks you definitely uh you know I rank funded accounts over everything um that’s nothing really funded account down 289 that uh is not great so I’m doing the $265,000 account Challenge and literally I am almost

$1,700 a week from uh going over I passed this eval today boom Another funded account that one’s blown this is another funded account up 480 today uh yeah that’s pretty pretty solid I think that was only on like one trade that is a blown even this is a brand new eval and this is yeah that’s a brand new eval also the deal ends today 90% off so it’s kind of like take advantage because quote unquote uh you know after you know

After today you’re going to have to pay $37 for 50k uh by today it’s only like 18 bucks or $16 so I’m going to go buy a couple um you know I’m going to buy a couple here um just kind of makes sense for me personally to buy today when it’s half price get that 90% off deal um let me see what else is going on here I [Music] have my bullox accounts which I will show you right now these are

All funded and just want to see if my login name off of it so full KNX these are all funded this one was up 574 and then these two were down just a little bit well $61 isn’t bad and then this one did a uh 233 which is not uh is not great it was down much further I got it back so that is a positive um yeah I have one bullnox account that’s that’s actually over the threshold but I need

To get one of the bullx accounts to 50 to 600 so I can get another funded account and then like I said I also have so that was rhythmic Trader Pro I have rhythmic Trader Pro on my laptop and I actually have one two three three four funded accounts over here um one of them was down $65 today it’s not great it’s only at 49,7 51 which means it’s below the 50,000 I actually blew one funded account today this account just

Got out of control and then I turned around and one of my funded accounts I accidentally um I bought I went short and uh I’m up $1,820 which I know there’s a consistency rule so I don’t really know what’s going to happen here but I have a feeling I’m going to have to make a lot more money in the account I’m probably going to have to get this account to like 54,000 to get money out um I’m going to keep you

Guys updated on that because I’ve never made that much in one single day in a funded account cuz usually I’m on top of it and I was not in that account and then another funded account is at 51,2 24 that was up $320 today so actually today was a pretty good day uh couple of the funded accounts were down small but I definitely cranked out uh some money in in some of them plus got a new one over and um got

That 250k uh account close to going over so overall I think it was a solid a day um you know just to go over some of the trades here that I took so actually I played this pivot point for a bounce and I know it doesn’t look like much on the chart but what was that [Music] 86 I mean that was like a 20 point bounce um and then I played the first touch here again that’s like 85 that was another

20 points or 25 points so I played those two I actually played Short a little bit when we came to 34 right over here and that was pretty much it um obviously I flip contracts in and out here and there but those were like my big trades um yeah that was like my not I don’t want to say go all in style trades but um I definitely uh you know I definitely sized up on those trades compared to some of the

Other ones I took so I mean that was pretty much it look at this it was a perfect double top here and then we Dro trying to think what else I I took possibly that really stood out most of my trades were to the upside and um you know it just didn’t really do well on some of them and then I was forced to take other trades and make my money back I think that’s what definitely happened a little bit um

I know right here I took this same Wick trade back up yes because I made I lost money early on I think I tried to take the double bottom over here to here and I lost and then I I definitely hit one of these pivot Points or something for pretty pretty good money and that’s kind of what put all my accounts up um so tomorrow I’m looking to take that 250 over and get that funded and maybe try to get another

One or two 50s funded and then I’m really just going to focus on funded accounts I’m kind of done trading evals um I told myself that once Apex did this9 % off sale I was going to get as many accounts over as I can without being too crazy um and that’s kind of what I did I have right now I got three funded in bullnox um I got one two three and that other one that’s four over here um in trade

Of eight and I have four over in rhythmic on my laptop so it’s four eight I have 11 funded accounts currently and then one in bullnox waiting waiting to go over so 11 funded accounts is is solid and I’m just going to keep working them up and I am going to get a couple more evals because they’re still discounted until tonight and then I’m probably done buying evals for a while and these evals I’m literally only going to trade them on

Pivot Point um balances reject or or bounces and rejections and that’s it because I’m not here to just blow EV vales I want to pass them and I want to take uh quality trade setups so that’s pretty much what I’m going to be doing um I’m going to be trading live soon and you don’t want to miss it be sure to subscribe and I hope you guys uh made money today also all right thanks guys

What’s going on so Nvidia earnings out after hours kind of went up down up um I think the stock would have rocked more if uh it wasn’t as high already um that’s just my my thought on it um I tried playing some of the earnings I passed One account on earnings um lost four I I’m so bad when it comes to these gambling earnings plays that’s why I don’t I don’t really play news I don’t really play the earnings I don’t

Really do any of that stuff because I’m just so bad at it but outside of that here’s my PA account today it was up 300 um here’s another another PA account that was up 800 um I got this is a 250 account up [Music] 9200 here’s another one up up a bit uh here’s another one up a bit and then here’s the ones I smoked during gambling basically I got this one over smoked and smoked my PA accounts were up 300

800 that’s 1100 and then my bul accounts I will uh one’s up 185 one’s up 58 one’s down 35 bucks the reason why there’s not much movement in the accounts today you can see right here 53 uh contracts traded and only up $58 that’s because I was down oh boy I was probably down like $7 800 at one point and I basically Focus my focus in Bull KNX was basically to get that account back green so that ate up a lot

Of my uh my time today and then I have rhythmic on apex uh I have three funded accounts over there plus I got another eval over on there today one funded account is up uh I’ll just go through it one’s up 290 bucks one is up 540 bucks and one is up $415 and it’s all funded accounts so allog together I mean what I do 1100 1300 1800 jeez 1,800 and 540 is 2300 about $2,600 in my funded accounts today and

That’s all real money you could pull out out um I’m getting close to the withdrawal so yeah it’s a pretty solid day um I’ll be back you know tomorrow I’m going to be trading live next month be sure to subscribe um just a pretty pretty solid day overall two more funded accounts will be live tomorrow and uh basically every single one of my funded accounts was up today except for this $35 loss so that’s a pretty good day so all right
