What’s up so another day in the books um today was not that great of a day to be honest with you because I spent the last two days sitting around and waiting and waiting and waiting and then um yeah I just just did some stuff I probably shouldn’t have done today so I got this eval it’s up today that’s nice I ended up smoking this funded account there wasn’t much left in it uh this funded account is only down uh 644
Which is not terrible um that’s just that’s whatever and then this eval is gone so not the best of days here um in my uh bullx account I took a about a $1,000 loss in my funded account um just not sticking to the plan because you know if you look at the plan today um so this was pretty early in the morning um I don’t like trading the first uh 15 minutes of the market but being that we were around the
Pivot point I got sucked in and when we made a higher low right here um I should have taken this North instead I was looking for the rejection down and I didn’t get it and then I took a a loss there and then um I think I played the rejection here took an l and then one up here and then uh I didn’t play anything over here really um on this pivot point and I played like a bunch of junk all
In here like I what I don’t even know what I was doing I I almost called a friend up I was like just just come over and turn my computer off um I don’t know but then we got down here I played this I should have really slammed this for more money um the reason I really didn’t was it was actually a second touch because we had this Wick down and I didn’t have my orders in um I was actually short
And I covered uh but yeah I didn’t have my orders in so we came back up then we came down again I uh I got in I definitely made some money there and then here at the end of the day I took this down I mean honestly like I keep telling myself like you only need a couple trades a day and I’m too busy playing these like all this junk so I am focusing on myself tomorrow and I’m only going to
Be playing plays around the pivot Points and you know also the uh the orbs but the orbs today if you look let me uh get all this good stuff out of here there was no or plays today this is the first 15 minutes of the day we opened up and we basically just went North so orb was not in play at all today so that was uh kind of weird because normally that’s a go-to play um if this came down and
Touched the orb I would have definitely uh taken that we didn’t get it and that’s it there there really was no uh there was no orb plays today so you know I focused on on the pivots um you know and I just didn’t get uh some of the pivots that I really wanted to like you know we rejected right here and I was looking for you know move back down to the 200 I did take profit but we went back up
And blew past and then I was like okay like I’m looking for up here and we just never got there and then uh on this bounce here and this bounce we never got near this pivot it so there was no trade there I just got tired of sitting around I was like ah you know what I’ll just do some trades and I don’t know it’s not my style my style is waiting for the pivot Points playing what I see around the
Pivot Points um rejections uh bounces the orbs and just didn’t really have it today um and that’s really it I mean tomorrow’s another day I’m going to try pushing over an eval um in Apex tomorrow oh I have my uh TOP Step account uh one of them’s up 1,000 today one of them’s up 900 today another one’s up 900 today another one’s up 500 and then I have like five that hit the Max draw down for the day which is 1,000
Bucks and that’s it it is what it is um tomorrow is another day like I said evals are whatever to me I’m just interested in getting funded accounts so this is where we’re at and tomorrow we will uh we’ll be back I’m going to start trading live soon um the big problem is I don’t want to start trading live and then I go away at the end of this month and you guys are like well where did I go and then
I’m not around so I’m just probably going to start in beginning or mid June when I get back I’m going to get a little bit of a better setup for my camera and everything and that’s it if you have any comments or questions just put it on the video and uh I get back to everybody all right hope you guys had a better day than me oh options account was up pretty nice today we I was up let me just see
I was up at 800 $24 today all thanks to uh my Tesla puts and my Kik puts I covered uh all those puts today the only puts I still have is because I know I talked about this in another video is a butterfly a QQQ butterfly uh May expiration and it is a 439 429 419 butterfly if you know what I’m talking about you understand that um um and that’s it I I pretty much didn’t do a whole lot today in
Options land I covered at the morning glad I did because we ramped up and that was it well hope you guys had better prop trading than I did today but uh options was good see you tomorrow

What’s up everyone so some of you have seen my videos and have asked about my trading indicators so I will go over what I use so right here I use all you do is type in pivot and it’s right here pivot Points standard this one right here I just started so that’s and just so we see what everything does I will hide it so pivots is this these yellow lines every day uh pivot Points I don’t exactly know how they calculate
It but I put it on the cues on this tab and I put it well I don’t have to put it cuz it’s here already um but yeah I have it on the NQ and the q’s I typically play the NQ pivot Points hold a lot more weight than the cues um and mostly I trade them during normal trading hours or when there’s volume um all right so that’s pivots traditional I do orb 15 but this is not necessarily for uh
The NQ unless you’re playing overnight session and as you could see it it definitely respects it um for bounces and you know once it breaks through support but I follow it the orb 15 um on the qqq’s during the day and that holds um I I like that right there you can see it so basically let me uh so now you have the orb green is the orb top red is the orb bottom um I like the Breakthrough of the orb
And then retest I most of the time do not buy this breakout I wait for the retest and then I’ll purchase um and I definitely play rejections off off here and I play bounces off of uh off of the bottom of the oral lot um obviously if there’s news news surpasses all and it will blow right through your indicators um I have vop so orb 15 is literally this one orb um it’s this one right here see just popped up but
I have it up already all right then I use vwap session so v w and I just use this one you can see I just clicked it it’s here it’s a duplicate so I’m just going to delete it and that’s the white line and if you want to change the colors um you can hit this setting button and you go to Styles and you can change the color just by clicking here um you can also add the upper and lower bands
So one of my friends trades uh the vwat bands as well and you could just see it it adds more lines I do not so you can change colors of things as well which is nice same thing with uh you know you can make it stand out more um I don’t know if you could change the settings oh yeah you could change the colors right here if you want to change from yellow to something else I’ve been using yellow for forever
So I’m going to stick with yellow um all right so that’s pivots the orb 15 vwap orb 15 is mostly for the q’s um but the rest of it I follow on the q’s and the NQ um I have now the next one this is a little tricky so their EMAs and I have this is the only one that I’ve edited the code on so basically I clicked uh source code and right here I changed from 20 to 8 50 to
34 I changed the 100 to 200 and I changed the 200 to uh 377 um what I did was I had to create a new because you can’t edit their code so basically I just highlighted I copied and then I did open and I opened up my own um my own one and I basically just created it you know quote unquote created an indicator and that’s what this is so that’s the only one that I’ve edited uh this next one is
Lux algo and it’s just a visual representation of support and resistance as you go further on the chart um it’s just an easy way for me to pick things up without like looking all right this is the bottom like all right here’s another bottom it just kind of shows you uh a range of support and resistance in different time time areas so you know so yeah I mean it’s just there’s nothing no real like secret sauce on there it’s just what
It is is it’s lightly shadowed as you see right here when there’s like one layer and then as you get more layers it gets darker um other than that there’s no nothing else it just helps visually that I don’t have to keep looking back on the chart to see things and as you break above or below uh the support stuff kind of it goes away um and the last one I sometimes have this on it’s just it’s just a trend line
Auto trend line sometimes I have it on sometimes I have it off I mean you can go um I find it easy when it’s when it’s there to kind of see Trends on a larger scale but like um I don’t take it for for gospel I mean I’m just kind of have it as a just an idea of what’s going on um let me go to like here like you could see you know there was no I guess this was the
Trend down and then we broke below it um but you know I’m not looking for it to come back up here or anything that’s why I kind of leave it off a lot of lot of the times and um you know just randomly it creates it as the new trend starts I guess but it’s not something that you really need um this orb 60s here I was just testing something out I’m I’m I’m in testing mode for for that but this
Is my setup I keep it real clean I like trading off of the 5 minute chart only because I I feel like I get a better represent ation of moves I’m not necessarily getting faked out by like a one minute up candle and I’m like oh it’s going to go and then one minute back down I like playing the uh the trend so this is the eight uh you know when there’s a trend I’ll I’ll typically stay in the trade and
Then um you know until it breaks over the uh the eight on the five or if we get a candle that’s uh a pretty big move down away from it I will sell and I’ll be looking for a retest if I think the trend’s going to continue um but overall that’s um that’s pretty much my setup and right down here I have the macd this I edited uh I changed the the coding to uh 595 to be a little bit faster
It’s it’s kind of like less laggy that way but I don’t I don’t even really use macd it’s just kind of there as a I don’t know just kind of there I I honestly 90% of my trades are off of uh the pivot Points or uh maybe vwap and then I’ll look for 34 bounces which is this line but the 34 bounce I look for on the one minute where you know we reject unless we’re over it then I’ll look for
A bounce and that’s pretty much it like right here um you know as an example this is looking kind of you know flaggy where you know we’ll consolidate and then maybe go down and look for the move to this uh bottom pivot point so that’s my setup it’s pretty simple I don’t have a lot of things I don’t draw lines like I said this app this uh indicator does kind of support and resistance lines um but I’m not drawing ing things
I’m not doing anything I feel like once you start drawing you’re kind of can have a bias to certain things and if you let a script do everything there is no bias the numbers are the numbers I don’t have to sit here and be like oh well how do I interpret it this I’m just kind of you know I look at the numbers hey this is the Line This Is The Line This is the 200 this is the 34 like this
Is what it is and then I uh I go from there so I hope this helps if you have questions comment below I try to get back to everybody and um a member asked about this video so I decided to make it I hope it helps you out and um I should be live trading soon all right take it easy guys
Day Trading For Beginners – Watch If You Are New Or Unprofitable
Transcript

Hey what’s up guys welcome to the video um I guess you’re watching this because you’re pretty much your beginner to day trading um well that’s what the title is so if you like the video like it be sure to subscribe to the channel I’m going to start trading live you don’t want to miss it um so all right so you’re a beginner you’re looking to get into day trading whether you’re trying to do it as a side hustle or your main
Thing um I’m going to give you a couple tips some things that I would do and um keep it keep it simple is probably the number one thing you know you ever go and they got trend lines and all these lines all over the place I would say your number one thing when starting out as a beginner is to probably put um just a couple moving averages on your chart one of them um being the 200 uh you should put vwap
On your chart which is this white line um you should definitely do pivot Points and you can even take this off and the orb so your charts pretty simple I mean that’s how I I personally do it and then what you do is you kind of back test um so the green is uh you know the orb top or bottom and they’re just spots of uh where things happen you know where you get resistance where you get support um and I
Create my strategy around these areas so vwap is Big you know you get a lot of bounces on vwap you get a lot of rejections on vwap depending if you’re above or below same thing with pivot Points also I wouldn’t trade a one minute chart one of the things that I would do is probably back it out to a f minute chart is probably where I would go this will reduce the noise The Fakes um you know the the fake breakouts
Um and things like that I would never trade breakouts if you’re uh new to day trading I would only trade uh tests so something that you know otherwise you’re going to end up getting faked out a lot like something like this where we Spike through view up and then you know the retest just failed I would not you know it just kind of keeps you from getting caught in things um you do get a lot of bounces on the 200 as
You could see I’m not talking like right exactly on the line but just in the in the vicinity of the area nothing’s ever exact you know you could see look Wick but closed right at the 200 I mean these are all balances that you could probably take and and make a little profit um you know pivot Points pivot point is up here you just look can’t get over um you know vwap is definitely one I would also only do first touch
So if something comes down hits vwap bounces off the next time it comes down to vwap I probably wouldn’t be playing it I only do first touches when um I talk to new Traders um you know any type of resistance after the first touch is probably no longer resistance if you’re newer Trader you want to keep things simple the biggest thing also is overtrading you want to focus on making one to three solid trades a day and when you make these
Trades one thing that a lot of new people do is like all right so for argument sake say we were looking for a bounce on on vwap all right we were up here and we started to come down like oh vop is going to the spot we’re going to buy they’ll buy like right here and then your stop will be right below vop and what happens is it sweeps under V up it gets all those stop losses and then comes literally
Right back and that’s kind of um what gets newer Traders is they have such a tight stop loss that they’ll get stopped out and then just like this example it will then bounce and you’ll miss out that you’ll this which would have been a really nice gain turns into a loss um so yeah I would instead of playing you know One Mini like I would I would be playing micros if you’re playing Futures I would play super small so little sweeps
Like this won’t stop you out um I I would I would set it so you give yourself probably like 15 points of downside um you know so if you’re here at 75 I’d probably set it at like 60 as my stop and that will allow you to let it move but make it so you know you’re probably only trading about two two micros three three micros um you know you got to let it move around and no more tight stops um
You know when you look at the cues the orb is what I I play on the The Q’s I mean you have orb bounces you got the tops you know this is this is a prime example of a retest like we broke we come back we retest this orb obviously it sweeps under comes back up and you got a nice bounce there um you know and then you have your first touch of vwap from the top and this is why you
Don’t play second touches look second Touch goes right through first touch is always the strongest um you know Pivot Point bounces keep it simple you don’t want a lot of lines on your chart um I this purple line is the nine I would even take that off so I would have the 34 the 200 and that’s it and then um yeah or top or bottom pivot Points that’s this is all on trading view if well you could see right here and
Here’s the indicator indicators right here I would even take this off so it’s even less and that’s it you you want to keep it simple I think everybody gets so infatuated about all these indicators all these things um you know also if you go down to like the one minute you’re going to get caught up in oh I think it’s going to break out oh no I got stopped out and you’re going to get chopped up when it starts chopping around
You’re going to be going long and then short and then long and then short and you’re just going to get yo-yoed and you’re going to lose money um wait until it hits an area you know prime example was uh was actually today I sat around for an hour and a half of not doing anything because I was trying to get as close to this line as possible possible and then finally we got right here and I took it and I took
This down I mean you just got to be patient there’s always going to be a a trade setup during the day for the most part it’s just you got to wait till it happens you can’t force it um don’t don’t short at the bottom so argument sake say see right here if I drew a line you would say oh this broke support and you would get short right here and then it would come right back up and then it would run
And then You’ lose money you never short at the on the break of support it’s just like a breakout you never you never buy on a breakout up here because you’re going to get smoked you buy at support you sell at resistance so you’re looking to buy down here and then you’re looking to sell up here not the other way around um so those are like the basics you know I’m not going to get too too in the weeds with certain
Things um you know I I basically follow this probably 90% of the time obviously I look for uh you know Trend breaks like right here today you know if I drew a [Music] line you know when this broke out I played that but you don’t need to be doing this this is just more this is like once you start Evol eving you start getting your own thing then you could start drawing trend lines and things like that because they kind of
Come with the bias you know you have to be unbiased when drawing trend lines because now you can kind of draw things you could manipulate the chart to make it look to do things that you want it to look like while if you’re using pivot Points you’re using moving averages it is what it is there’s nothing you can do to manipulate it the the the lines of the lines and I would probably start there on my uh on my journey as
A beginner day trader um so I hope you learn some things comment in the video if you want to uh if you have questions and I’ll be sure to to uh get back to you all right best of luck with your journey thanks
Today was not that eventful, waited over an hour for a pay but it paid out. A few funded accounts were up and one was down by not following my rules.

What’s going on so I don’t know it was mostly I feel like it’s a boring day today for the most part like we did get a couple moves um you know early on we got some moves but uh you know I waited through this and then played the up and then it just kind of chopped from like 11:00 for an hour and 30 minutes I waited for this up candle to get close enough to this pivot point for me to play
It to the downside and that was my big move of the day um that was it I I there was ton of chop in here as you can see I stayed out of this I might have played a little bounces here and there um but yeah I played this downside and then that was pretty much it couple things here and there um I got this eval today uh 700 away from passing it and you can see the trailing draw down is
Pretty solid uh this funded account lost because I was doing stupid stuff um I thought I was in an eval and I didn’t realize I was in a funded account and then this is my other funded account we’re up 223 today um yeah and then I end up smoking this eval um I guess I’ll just do all all my uh Recaps in one I got bullox um my bullox account is up 46 9 today um go to show you how much
Commissions were taken out I was playing minis today I was playing micros today and I was playing a lot of micros and I think it was just eating up my commissions um but my account balance currently is uh 51 621 another th000 bucks and I can request a payout and I got trade like five more days I think it is so hopefully I get a payout there um I’m waiting for two other accounts to become funded uh they just take a
Couple days to get back to you to they approved one and I’m waiting for it to go live and um the other one I’m not sure what happened to it but they said they’ll get back to me in a day or two so I’m just kind of waiting I’ll message them tomorrow um and then I have a my top step account account which they’re running the deal right now it’s like 19 bucks um one of my accounts was up 275 it’s
An eval which brings a total to 50, 630 and then um the copy trading accounts all three of them are up 137 each and then I had two that I hit the threshold on the downside so you know they’re evals so I kind of play a little bit heavier than I should and play plays that aren’t great um so yeah I hit two two that are down and basically tomorrow I am going to be looking to uh to slam them with
Some you know it’s either evals when they go down about a th000 bucks uh I either got to make the thousand bucks the market closed no that I either got to make that money back or um I just smoke the eval because it’s an eval and right now they’re only $19 if they were $37 or 50 bucks I’d probably treat it a little bit better but at 19 bucks I don’t want to waste days of trading um on a on an
Eval that’s down to make it back slowly I’m either going to you know so those two eval accounts they’re either going to be up 1,000 bucks tomorrow tomorrow are they going to be smoked um and that’s pretty much it uh I just you know I look at the cues if you look at the q’s today you know not the best of candles we gapped up kind of sold off closed near nearish of low of day um I would love to see
A pullback of I don’t know a couple bucks on the cues and then kind of re-evaluate from there um so I don’t know we’ll see what goes on but uh yeah I mean that was pretty much it kind of like a mixed day um I’m glad my two funded accounts are up the other one took a a hit and just keep working for payouts so uh yeah if you’ve been following along be sure to uh you know like the video subscribe
If you’re not subscribe I I do the Recaps every day I’ll be trading live soon and you uh definitely don’t want to miss that so yeah and that’s pretty much it hope you guys had a good day and uh see you guys tomorrow

What’s up guys so basically TOP Step is run a new promotion it’s pretty good actually so it’s $19 a month for a 50k account uh they recently launched TOP Step X trading combine and use the code TOP Step X and it goes till May uh 13th and yeah it’s pretty cool so I actually signed up an account today um um so the 50k is uh becomes $19 the 100K is $69 and the 150 is going to be somewhere around I guess
Somewhere on 80 bucks um basically you know you go to go to check out just like you normally would H I’m not going to do this but anyways you go there and then you just type in your promoe code use TOP Step X um yeah and it’s pretty cool it’s basically um it’s basically like trading view I’m going to let’s see every I’m just making sure that none of my stuff is like I don’t have any personal information on here I
Guess but here it is so here here’s TOP Step X um as you could see I traded I got it today for the first day you could see my uh p&l I’m up 354 today and the balance it says I’m up 354 just started today um it’s pretty cool I mean this chart they don’t have all the indicators that um you know they don’t have every single indicator that trading view has but it has a lot I mean these are all
The ones that are on here right now I didn’t even realize they had super trend on here that’s pretty cool um not that I use super Trend a lot but I did want to take a look at it uh so yeah I mean you can also just put lines on the chart real real easy stop sells I mean I just rightclick wherever I want it um you can draw the lines real easily you have all the tools that trading view have
On the side um obviously you could see the um the orders going through or time and sales right here um you know your trades your orders here they got this thing that’s called tilt that’s pretty interesting so during the market hours it will give you percent long percent short um in all different categories of oil crude NASDAQ es um and it’s everybody within the top step platform if they’re long short or what here look see percentage of TOP Step traders that
Are long percent that are that are short it’s super cool um you know am I going to make my trades off it probably not but it is definitely cool to see um I do like that they have the reverse position close position um flatten all cancel all uh it it’s really I stop sell and then you just kind of see how many you want to do the stop sell with uh limit by the quantities right here it’s super easy um you
Know it’s just it’s got everything I’m not even through it all um oh they have performance stats okay for all you guys that are wondering my win rate today was over 90% so there you have it didn’t even know uh yeah so over 90% is obviously pretty good um you have a Traders Hub I don’t know I’m going to go into all that I don’t know what it is and I don’t want to pause and be reading it all but they
Got all these cool things I’m going to go in all this they have the top Step TV I believe that brings you to YouTube um live chat it’s been really good um you know by the way if you click my link in the description usually you get the best deals if you want to support the channel it’s in the description click there and then use the program the promo code TOP Step X and save the money um but yeah I mean
Everything about this is um I’m really liking this you know so they launched this some of the rules are different so obviously you know that I trade top uh I trade Apex a lot and I trade um bull KNX also now I I started trading bullo because they were running a deal for 17 17 bucks for a 50k account I got a bunch of them I’m funded um I have three funded accounts with them one of them is about a th000
Bucks away from a payout and I just started recently with them um I haven’t really traded top step that much and the rules are a little bit different they have so I’m used to the trailing draw down being intraday it’s usually 2500 in day with TOP Step you can only lose I think it’s a, or 1100 during the day um and you don’t blow up your account they just kind of stop you for the day and um and you go start
Back up again tomorrow um other than than that you they do a trailing draw down at the end of the day that’s 2,000 bucks so they don’t take the high of the day they just whatever you end at is 2,000 bucks from the highest point that you’ve ended at then they also have the consistency um thing which is you can’t make more than uh 50% of your you know for an eval you can’t be over 1,500 in one single day if
You are then the next Bunch you’re going to have to go past the $33,000 uh Target you’re going to have to go to maybe 3,100 or whatever you’ve gone over but half of whatever you get cannot be done in a day you have to be under 50% um the payout seem pretty uh oh daily loss limit is 1,000 bucks by the way um I’m just looking at it on my other screen real quick um payouts it’s like five five straight positive
Days of 200 plus or uh I think it’s like 10 positive trading days I got to get the exact um pullout terms but they are definitely achievable uh I know a lot of people that love TOP Step and I’ve used them in the past but now that they have this new trading platform um they are probably going to use it a little bit more so the deal that they’re running per my email um you can get up to to 10 of
These accounts which is pretty cool um I don’t know if it’s 10 total so if you get 10 and you below 10 you can’t get an 11th or you can have up to 10 live um you can have up to 10 live at the end of the the promotion and that’s that’s your max is is 10 live at any given time um I’m definitely going to get at least 10 uh yeah I mean why not it’s cheap it’s 19 bucks oh
By the way the 150k is 119 so 50k is 19 100K is 69 150k is 119 it ends at May 13th at 11:59 p.m. central Time uh yeah I mean why not all right so limit to 10 purchases per Trader resets remain at regular price uh we will not offer refunds for codes that are entered incorrectly uh trading combine membership will start immediately upon completing purchase pretty simple and then basically the have top 10 features are trading view charts the Tilt
Thing I showed you uh micro maximum position sizes they have a trade copier built into this I have not dug into that yet um I will definitely dig into that tonight to see how I set up the trade copier manual lockout it allows you to lock in profits or prevent emotional trading by walking away for the day that’s interesting I guess you could hit a button and it just kind of locks you for the day uh I’ll be honest with you
You should be able to control your emotions or this probably isn’t for you um simple bracket orders let you easily drag and drop profit targets and stop losses that work together that’s pretty cool um yeah fast uh fast depth of Market integrated Liv Step TV basically you can vote or submit uh different features then you have the live chat uh social trading with trading for pit like experience is coming soon they’re coming soon with an IO IOS and Android mobile apps
And some neverbe seen features uh yeah it it’s pretty cool um I’m definitely liking it uh and I’ll I’ll be using it like I said I’m going to get 10 accounts and if I blow one up I will see if I can get an 11th so maybe it’s just 10 live and if that’s the case I’ll be sure to comment on the video and let you guys know but uh yeah for 19 bucks a month you really can’t pass that up
Because the closest thing to that currently is probably uh Apex which is 37 a month so this is a great deal and also the software is so much better than trade of eight um I will gladly trade on this much more than trade of eight um it’s pretty cool when you start trading too and you go live um right here there’s a little thing that comes up you can see your profit loss really really easily um just the use of the
Platform is amazing yeah so what is this Del LW I didn’t even my first trade today went green so that’s probably why I didn’t see this at all um um yeah everything everything’s pretty good plus I had a really good day my first day using it I’m up 354 so I like it even more well that’s pretty much it the rundown I’m sure there’s a ton of more features in here I’m going to start playing with I’m going to look at
The copy Trader tonight um be sure to comment if you have any questions like subscribe and I will be trading live soon so you don’t want to miss that especially that I hit for 90% of my trades today so take it easy guys

What’s up guys so here’s the recap if you’ve been following along be sure to like And subscribe so today was kind of not that eventful till the end of the day um you could see we uh we opened here and then we just kind of chopped and then even uh you know right here would be the break and we’ go up like we broke went up a little bit and then just gave it all back and then just kind of chopped
Around a lot and we really didn’t get much of a move I mean from here to here is you know was it n 3 4 hours of just kind of chop and then um just kind of made our way up a little bit and uh and then finally at the end of the day we had a nice nice Pop um typically days like this do not farewell for myself but I stayed out of trading for the most part um 361 in
This funded account which is nice this account got slaughtered a little bit ago and I’ve been making it back 361 is definitely a good one this was new I just started this today 151 which is nice start on a positive note like I said I barely traded in it I mean not too much going on and then this was just an eval um took a couple shots like I said I don’t fare well in this environment and knew enough to uh
Kind of chill out and then um yeah so that’s for my my Apex um accounts really didn’t do much the one thing I will say that I did today is I played this rejection which got most of my money it was here and I think I took one little stab here for the uh equivalent for like a double top but most of my orders were higher than this wick for the pivot point so I really didn’t get filled I got filled
Like less than a quarter of what I wanted and uh took a little profit there and then here I got filled a better position made the majority of my money and that was it um like I said I don’t keep playing the rejections especially when you’re making higher lows as we continue to make our way up here uh you got to know that you are going to p push through um and then I was on live stream I um I was
Talking about this and then uh I knew eventually we were going to bust through and um I played it in another account but for my Apex land uh decent day up in both uh funded accounts so you can’t really go wrong didn’t blow any accounts up and um things were pretty good uh yeah you know it was definitely good let’s see do we have any I think we had uh this was the orb I mean we kind of it was significant
Because once you start chopping around over the orb like this you can’t really play it anymore cuz it’s just like kind of there but like once you surpass it and go above it below it above it below it it’s no longer relevant and that’s kind of what happened today in this area it just wasn’t relevant to me and then when we made the push up um you know I definitely looked at it uh you know it was one of those things
Today I didn’t really pay that much attention to the orb once we were chopping in and out of it it’s when I kind of tune it off because it’s obviously not working today and if it’s not working just don’t look other than that I mean like I said we really didn’t do much today until the very end uh I think earning season is still going on I’m going to follow up and see what some of those look like and tomorrow hopefully
Will be more eventful so this is my recap be sure to like subscribe and I’ll be putting out some more content

What’s up guys so you’re here because you want to see how I pass all my EV vals um before I go feel free to subscribe you can watch me trade live during the week um be sure to like the video and let’s dive in so how I pass all my evals I basically use a simple strategy for the most part I leave on my um I vwap on there but typically I do not take vwap trades I typically take first touch
And I’m going to go over what first touch means so it’s pretty simple the first time you come in the vicinity of the pivot point so as you can see right here would be the first touch it would hit here and I start taking so you can see the pivot point is at 66 I would start leing into this trade probably about 56 I would buy a lot I would buy another lot around 60 66 uh 70 and probably 75 and
As I got filled on the way up you would then get a rejection and I’m typically looking for you know 20 25 points on a move like this depending on how far we’ve come so you can see when we went from one Pivot Point to the next I would be looking for at least 25 points we would have gotten that I probably would have gotten filled on three lots uh three lots 10 points is 600 1,200 so you would got about
1,500 bucks on this trade and you’d be halfway there for passing an eval um obviously you know we rejected again but what you could see is the first touch here you would have gotten that trade and then you would have gotten this and you would have passed your eval um I mean that’s pretty much how easy it is now the reason I do first touch is because the first touch is here and then we come back down I’m not saying you
Can’t take this but the odds of it working become less the more times we hit it the more times we hit resistance um it definitely becomes more of a statistic that we’re going to go through um and sure enough well I mean we rejected here but we eventually punch through and then the trade is done I am I’m not looking to really play a bounce off of the um you you can and I’ve done it but when I’m trying to pass
My evals I’m trying to go heavy and I’m looking for 20 points am I going to get 20 points off of a bounce um around here like I don’t know you can you can’t um you know that’s not really what I’m looking for I’m looking to basically travel a good ways hit the pivot point and get the rejection I need I mean we can go back to you know here’s another example this is another day boom first touch I mean this
Dropped I mean that’s a massive drop you know here’s a great great example so you travel from this Pivot Point all the way up and kind of like a staircase up and once you come here is where I would have backed up the truck got in leged in on on multiple levels and I was looking for my uh you know 20 25 points I would have gotten it again um what I’m not looking for well you could see this is this
Is why I only play first touch first tou you’d have gotten your 20 points at least and then you know when you come back up I just I’m not looking for that I’m looking for that one trade a day sometimes two trades a day um you know where it happens the one thing you got to think about is news though Trump’s all and this was a news play right here this was the fomc meeting and this is why I don’t play
It during news because it will blow right past this pivot point and just keep going so during news I typically just I don’t really trade for an hour so I’ll just sit there let it the market go wherever it’s going to go and and that’s it um so I not only play the rejections I’ll play bounces as well I’m looking for traveling from Pivot Point to the next pivot point so we were at this Pivot Point come down I probably would
Have gotten fil at least one if not two contracts here would have gotten my 20 points and then that would have been it I’m not playing the second touch CU look the second touch it breaks right through depending on what’s going on in in the day like I’m probably not playing any of these plays here the only thing I’d be looking for is us to come down to around this pivot point for another bounce you would have gotten it here and
Then I would have been out and then and when we Dro to this pivot point is probably when I would have taken my first loss um because it seems like we blew through this we actually did bounce but I probably would have gotten out even or with a slight loss here same thing here this would have been nice first touch down got the bounce just like this though you went from this Pivot Point to this Pivot Point boom you would had
Another nice trade so I basically played pivot Points as my main strategy passing these EV valves it happens so much you know you could see it again here only the first touch now sometimes you’ll get close like this but I probably wouldn’t have gotten filled because that’s 17 18 points away that’s too far to start getting filled I usually start around eight points away so I’ll probably buy it like or maybe 10 10 points away five points away I’ll buy another
One at the pivot point and maybe another one five points over the Pivot Point um and then my stop loss is usually 10 points above the last purchase so do I take losses yes you will you will take losses and when you take a loss you’ll take a pretty sizable loss but I would say you’re going to win oh man like 85% of the time it’s I I’ll pass evals sometimes you know 3 four in a row without without burning one
Sometimes um you know do you get these types of Trades every day no like this day you would have gotten the one trade there and um the next time actually you would have got two trades you would have got this one right here but some days you can go all day without without getting it so like this day you uh you hit the Pivot Point up here you have gotten one trade but you have to be okay with taking one trade
During the day and that’s it but you know that this trade because it went a little bit above you probably have a full stash you probably have four contracts and let me see 26 you’ve gotten 20 points on on all your contracts you would have you would have banked so you know this is my way of passing EV valves over and over again um but you have to be patient this isn’t a lot this isn’t trade a thousand times a day
This is one to three good trades a day where you sit there you wait and you uh you know you take it you leg in and then you sell on the way out like I said I’m looking for 20 points points so I’ll probably take one off like if I get in three I’ll take one off at like 15 one off at 20 one off at 25 um I’ll set the cells and if I get in with four I’ll do the
Same thing but that last one I’ll just keep moving up my stop with like a five to eight point stop loss and I’ll just keep going because sometimes you get um you know you’ll hit the pivot point and just get like a waterfall like um so something like this this is first touch I mean this is from 53 all the way down I mean this is like that’s 60 points so if I would have just followed it down my last contract
I probably would have gotten 50 60 points off of it so this is what I use to pass all of them this is free it’s on trading view it’s just called pivots traditional and that’s it super easy if you have any questions comment below be sure to like subscribe and watch me trade during uh during the week
Just some morning coffee while I review charts for longer term swings and my retirement account. I set alerts and just talk about different things I like.

Hey what’s up guys so it’s Saturday morning and uh I go over a lot of things that aren’t just prop firms by the way if you’ve been liking my videos uh be sure to subscribe I come out with content every day and I’m going to start trading live uh through the week as well so every Saturday I basically just review um kind of the market in general because I’m not so stuck on uh intraday moves trading um PL firms and intraday
Scalping options and things like that that you know you kind of see my videos through the week and on the weekend I kind of focus on longer term plays um really swing trading options my retirement fund and things like that and I just do a quick overview on Saturday to see where companies are um you know where they are where I’d like to buy them I set my alerts um let me just take this off this is the pivot Points and
Uh that’s that’s where I’m at right now so we we’re doing fairly well on uh on options this this year um last couple weeks we’re kind of up and down but overall we’ve been uh had a really good year and um yeah I’m just looking for some stuff St for my retirement funds a couple companies that I really like I’m looking to add um shift for payments is one that I actually like it just seems like the payment industry has been
Under Fire PayPal reported um and they didn’t really go anywhere so I don’t know um I’ve been I’ve been watching this I would love it to uh come down a little bit more but uh this one has been on my radar I’m actually just going to I I set alerts on Saturday this is kind of my alert day um I wanted to buy SE also I like what they’re doing some of the big ones though Celsius I’ll say I’ve traded Celsius
A bunch I’ve been in it but man their product is so good kind of looks like bare flaggy a little bit I’m hoping it comes down and touches the 200 that’d be like the ultimate for for me personally um I love the product though it’s definitely growing Baba I just I just took this all the way up if you watch one of my other videos I was um so Baba I actually did buy at like 70 and I just sold out
On Thursday the reason I sold out was um we just went from 70 to 80 in a week and earnings is coming up so you know listen can it keep going up without a doubt I think Baba has a ton of cash on hand I think they’re undervalued I can see this going back up to you know 120 range but where else am I going to get you know 12 15% on my money in a week um you know there has
To be profit taking soon not saying it’s going to go back down but this is definitely one on my radar that when it comes back down I will uh I will be looking to add I absolutely love Shopify love Shopify um I’m in a position Shopify I bought it at uh 695 um I basically set an alert just like I’m doing right now one of these Saturday sessions and uh I bought right on the basically right on the 200 and it’s
Paid off uh I’m not looking to sell his position we’re going into earnings I love Shopify and I think Shopify is going to continue going up um um just the trends of the world point to Shopify just keep adding and adding and adding so this is one I’ll probably hold I’ve had it before um and I’ve been looking to you know I think I sold it up here somewhere and I was looking to read and uh I like to add around
The 200 on a lot of lot of things once you start watching my videos you’ll see that a lot so I added at the 200 and you know we’re up um we’re up what is it like 7% already um I know it doesn’t sound like a lot when you’re like used to options where you’re like oh I got you know you see these gurus and whatnot but I’m talking retirement money um you know I also uh bought a long-term options at$
6950 I want to say I bought it like here like April 17th and literally couple days later it popped up to like 74 and I sold it I was up I was up a good amount cuz I bought I think I bought August and um you know I got a pretty good percentage on on my money I think it was like 25% or something and I was like I’m out that that’s that’s more than enough for me um here’s another one
But I am not in there so yeah Etsy I mean you see my list etsy’s on there these are all lists of ones I file the problem is Etsy is Etsy needs some changes done within their company they got attacked by timu um I don’t see Etsy as a they’re not growing at all it’s they got to change some things oxy’s one of these I like actually I said an alert I think Buffett bought around 58 or added and uh anytime
It comes around there if you look we bounce so that’s what I’ve been doing is just kind of I I buy in like 58 range uh options out about three months either a vertical spread or straight calls and uh it’s paid off every time see what else we have that I’m just setting alerts for that I’ve been taking a look PayPal had earnings they popped dropped they just kind of dead money for now this chart is so nice I just sold
This the other day I don’t know really I got to look into what’s pushing the airlines but uh yeah I mean recently them and uh United have been going up this is one of those that was hot this was a hot company for a little bit so I like digital ocean um I like digital ocean a lot I just can’t buy I I owned it in the 20s um I took a beaten as it went all the way down to uh
Yeah to like 20 I mean I want to say I owned a lot of it around 25 and I held all the way down and I prayed that the earnings were good and then I ended up unloading it just to get out I like the company um I can’t buy it at 34 uh it looks like it’s going to break the 200 maybe we do get another retest down here and um so this company’s actually growing a lot um yeah they
Do yeah I like this company they’ve had some really good earnings um they just can’t get a break I don’t know what the deal is the chart does not look good it kind of looks like it’s rolling over it’s testing some support again it breaks below there you’re going to get a 10% flush this shoe company is Awesome by the way um I just don’t know how much higher it can go that’s my thing they had earnings were bad here it
Was something to do with the conversion rate between was it like the Swiss frank and the US dollar and that’s why the earnings came down and it shot right back up um I do like it um just you know I I got to buy it lower see with Crocs Crocs is another one I like but where is Crocs at I think it’s like 124 I thought the dude what was that the dude sandals and something like that um that they took
Over I thought that was a good acquisition just seems like it’s not um taking off as I thought earnings are are pretty solid almost every time but now they’re kind of at that point every time they get up here they end up coming back down um I mean I would need this back down around like [Music] 90 housing Markus it’s crazy how housing all I hear is housing’s taking a beating but told Brother is just going up all right here’s one
I really like I love Cloud flare um with they I guess they just reported earnings I I I’m in Cloud flare for the Long Haul um I will add if it gets if it gets down here um I just feel like they’re everywhere um they’re growing um they’re adding new features onto their security and I I think web security is not going anywhere it’s just it’s going to be an Ever growing uh industry and I know Cloud flare is one of
Those this is another uh security company been following tdd for a while um they just haven’t really made you know they make [Music] moves but I don’t know if the growth is done I typically like buying stocks that are under a 100 bucks to be you know like I’ll have these on my radar and like you know the Pepsis and you know for solar I keep all this stuff on there but this is an awesome compan dingo jeez not buying it
Here it’s just if you’re in you’re in actually the only one I kind of like Tesla I almost bought some Tesla back down around 150 and I wish I didn’t I was honestly I was waiting for it to retest like the 100 I I don’t know if it will ever get this low again uh but yeah AMD is another one so AMD reported earnings the other day okay they obviously are in the chip industry um it’s great they had this great
Formation where it was making you know kind of like a a wedge and then it broke and ran I do believe that AMD will continue to grow it’s kind of like you know they’re not in the spotlight as much as nid is I do like it I like it better if it would come down another $25 or so I’ll buy some long-term options actually but major oh TSM so let’s hear about TSM so TSM I love this company the issue with
TSM that’s in everybody’s mind is always you know is China going to take over Taiwan or try to take over Taiwan if that wasn’t in play I think this company would be so much higher this is one of those that I love the stock I love the company it’s just in a bad area of the world um see I think overall the market is going to pull back so they released the GDP numbers the other day and uh you know it
It wasn’t great but then after that all these Tech earnings came and everyone’s make you know double beats and all that other good stuff but if you’re looking at this chart right now you have to assume that we’re going to come back down uh it just seems that way you know Pal’s talking inflation higher for longer um it’s just the economic things are not in our favor and I feel like we’re retesting this breakdown so we broke down over here and
We’re retesting it and then I just feel like we’re going to drop I think if we’re up to uh tomorrow if we’re up on Monday I think I’m going to take a longer term short position um I would like to see another day up as you can see I set alerts already on this that’s what these dotted lines are uh so yeah once we we hit that I am willing to take it and there’s this massive Gap at 428 but I
Do feel like we’re going to head down to the 200 at some point it doesn’t take long look we were here and I mean it doesn’t take long to what I say uh staircase up elevator down so you know a couple bad days look at this this drop from 40 you know 30 points there’s no reason why you couldn’t drop 30 points again and come down somewhere around here and the 200’s coming up and it’ll kind of meet so path is
Interesting they do a lot of the robotic stuff um I feel like every time they they have earnings it’s good earnings for whatever reason I just feel that way last I mean they pop but um it never sustains the run but it’s one of those companies that I’ve had on my watch list man this company was so much higher at one point I mean look at where they were but it’s one of the ones I’ve been following and I think they
Have a bright future I think it’s going to take a long time time to get there um but if it does come back down around here I’ll grab some in my retirement and I always like this one this is toast you’ve seen toast around they’re they are a lot of places I feel like they’re growing um I just think because of the payment processor with the restaurants it just doesn’t really get the the Investments and people buying is you know some
Of these other companies do this company’s taking a beating beating beating hims is one I like hims is one I like a lot I feel like hims could do a lot of stuff they could add more lines they have the customer base um I feel like HS can do quite a bit I don’t like buying it even up here I really would love to see it retest 10 or under 10 um looks like they had a blowout quarter here and then
They they went as high as wow 17 bucks it’s a big drop from 17 uh earnings coming up and I remember them yeah I remember them in the sixes cuz I owned it I actually bought it here and I sold sold it around like 8 bucks being like Oh I just took it from 6 to 8 like you know it wasn’t even that long but boy did I miss out um I like the company they uh they have a user base
And I feel like if they can add more products um they can grow I just don’t know what the cost of adding more products is and and all that other stuff nerd wallet nerd wallet’s never going super super high or super low it’s one of those that if you just play the ranges I feel like you can you could swing I’ve done it a couple times oh here’s another one Sofi Sofi had earnings I think the earnings were increased due to
Like a onetime investment or something like that um I do like this company I think they will Trend up I think if you like I added some around here and I’m fine with that and if it goes down lower I’ll probably add more um it seems every time it comes down into like the 550 range we go back up but they’re doing a lot of things I kind of like the company um but yeah oh here’s another Buffet Company I had
This one too this one was good if this ever comes back down I’ll buy oh where’s Melly melly’s the only stock that’s super high in price that I kind of want to buy but oh they just had earnings and earnings were good cool missed out missed out um it’s another company I really like so Netflix is actually interesting because they’re starting to put on all these Live Events and I’m curious is if Netflix becomes a provider of live sporting events it’s
Going to start chewing into the the Hulu and the pay-per-views and things like that I think they’re testing it with boxing with Mike uh Mike Tyson and uh one of the Paul Brothers Logan Paul or the other one um it will be interesting to see Netflix over the next year or so if that is a success raise prices or do like kind of like pay-per-view if you want to watch this event it’s 15 bucks and instead of doing it for free
They start charging on a per event basis and I think it could get them a ton of extra money am I buying it am I buying it up here no um will I buy it if it came down I think I would finally become a long-term investor in Netflix if it came back down around 460 is um see what Lily is doing kind of look like a triple top here man they’ve had such a run with that drug it’s crazy all
Right I don’t mean to drag this on I mean I look at all these charts all the time on on my weekends so I’ll do like a Saturday I guess like coffee and charts um if you have companies that you want me to take a look at or discuss or or actually I I when I’m not looking at this I look at like the financials and the growth and you know year-over-year growth and things like that that’s kind of what how
These companies get on my radar and then eventually like you know they drop off like I know I’m not looking at AET anymore I should probably start taking them off the list but I just haven’t cleared my list in a long time um but yeah so if you have companies you want me to look at just comment below I’ll take a look and um yeah I’m going to start live trading during the week so be be sure to uh subscribe so
You get notified that’s about it we’re up pretty good on options this year and hopefully we continue all right enjoy your weekend

What’s up guys so if you’re following along with my videos be sure to like subscribe to the channel I come out with updates every day so here’s my update for bullnox um not a great day I ended up losing uh another funded account which was not good um this top funded account though was up 445 so I’m about $11,200 away from a payout so I’m more than halfway so that’s actually good news good news is I pushed this one over so
That will be funded hopefully Monday or Tuesday um and then I smoked uh an eval and a funded account so it is what it is uh I guess just focus now that I’m going to be down to uh I I put in for this one to also be funded so I’m hopeful hopefully I’ll be down to well that’s the max they allow you is three funded accounts in uh bul um yeah so basically just uh I didn’t really trade that much
In bullo today outside of really destroying my funded account uh basically you know I I this is what happened I’ll just be honest with you I played this I played this first rejection right here made money and then I tried playing it again here and took a decent size L and then the more we chopped around here um I should have just waited until we hit vwap and then took a bounce there uh I just have to be more selective I
I over traded in the one that I got up though um you know you could see how many fills and how many buys like I only did three contracts so you know and uh this one I got over I only did four contracts but the one I smoked today is 31 and I’m only buying one or two at a time so I was I was trading a lot a lot so I need to back it up a little bit I shouldn’t
Have been doing that it was really stupid stuff what happened was I started going down and instead of just stopping uh I just kept going going for it but hopefully I know they’re definitely going to pass this one so I’ll have another funded account Monday or Tuesday I don’t know what the deal is with this other one so I don’t know I I put a support ticket in and requested to see what’s up because I traded the right amount of days
And I’m over the limit so I’m just kind of curious what’s going on because I want that third funded account um you know I still have funded accounts in some of the other prop firms that uh I’m working up and I pass another eval somewhere else if you follow along you know where I just you know I’m focusing on bull KNX right now um but yeah I mean presented a good amount of opportunities today I mean when we broke over uh
We retested the Pivot Point twice for some nice bounces and um honestly I thought we were going to get an end ofday flush so I kind of was biased to the downside uh but yeah I mean other than that you know it just it is what it is I over traded and we had some nice orb bounces today um like I said here this double bottom was really nice I almost took uh five micros and just set it like five uh
10 points below the bottom over here and I wish I did because I would have made I mean if you look how many points that is it’s like 900 I could have made easily 50 points but it could have gone up to 80 or so should have done it should have would have could have Didn’t Do It um I’m going putting out some content over the weekend be sure to uh follow along and if you have questions just comment on the
