What’s going on Traders so first I want to take some time out to say thank you to all the people that joined the stream today um a lot of new faces we uh you know a lot of good information going on on the stream we stream live uh 1:30 Eastern to pretty much the end of the day um today was not a great day and like always I tell you when I’m having good days and when I’m having bad days days

This is one of the worst days I had all month probably the last like 30 days of trading uh this PA account took a massive beating this one’s down a little bit that one’s down a little bit I actually didn’t trade that one good thing didn’t trade that one which is another good thing I blew these two which were evals I didn’t trade I knew enough to stay out of my if you look I knew enough to stay out of my

Funded accounts because the ones I touched are all down except for that one and then I ended up blowing a funded account in my rhythmic uh account on my laptop so as you could tell I had a pretty bad day um I did the smart thing and I fired fired up some bullnox uh bullnox what do you call it evals and I just traded them from like half the day on uh pretty much because I was getting getting killed and I’m

Not going to sit here and trade funded accounts when I’m not seeing the market so you know I could have easily smoked a ton of funded accounts today and instead I took a step back and said you know what let me just waste I don’t know 80 bucks on a bunch of evals and if I blow that I blow it but it’s better than smoking five funded accounts or eight funded accounts when I’m not feeling it so I did the smart

Thing that’s what I did um yeah I mean that’s pretty much how my day went um I got some bull KNX accounts I got some evals up I blew I think I blew three uh bullnox evals four four of them something like that um you know it is what it is you have bad days and this is one of my bad days and if I have a bad day I’m still going to come on here and tell you that uh you

Know got my ass kicked and it is what it is guys you know if you’re not getting your ass kicked you’re probably not trading so I will say um you know I’m looking forward to Monday the bounce back and um I’m going to bounce back pretty hard uh yeah so we’ll see what happens I uh will say you know steams a lot of people weren’t doing that good today the price action was rough no real setups came my way honestly um

As you can see we got nowhere near any of the pivot Points or anything um you know so it is what it is I didn’t get many setups I played some 200 bounces 200 rejections I mean I made some money um in some evals but overall I sucked and I could say I suck today but you know what it’s part of it um listen it’s part of it you know what I’m saying the stream was fun we had a good time

And uh you know kind of help through a crappy day so we’ll just pick it up on Monday today was uh Opex or it was uh quad witching today so you know I was kind of got a lot of choppy action from that and I think uh I think we be smoother sailing come Monday and uh that’s pretty much it I am uh I’m I’m going to load up a takeprofit Trader account for Monday if you don’t have one use the

Uh coupon code Cove Trader or it’s in the description I’m going to be uh trading that I’m going to start with them on uh on Monday we going to trade it nice and slow and we’ll see what happens other than that I hope you guys have a good weekends hope you guys made money and I will be back at it on Monday
