FOR anyone plotting ES1! on your TV charts, dont forget to go to settings and check off continous....
☝🏽
📌
"Adjust for contract Changes...."
Go to settings Symbol
☝🏽
I mentioned the contract change-over several times past week and today few times
is this suppost to update the current price or something? ES1 and 2 never has the right price
Es1 showing 4506
that not even close to the current price am i doing something wrong?
Yea I need help to how do I change it over
i started doing mines manually, by pulling up the actual current contract
i also pay attention to the hourglass at the bottom where it plots the news.
Either use Dec contract month or ES1! and make sure in your symbol settings to check off "ADJUST FOR CONTRACT CHANGES"
I also mentioned this in a few posts above yours.
☝🏽
📌 All you need to know about Futures contract expiration and ES1! and ES2!, front and second contract months
Did you see that NQ gap up?
hi there, anyone have a problem to display market structure ChoCH, BOS in LuxALgo Arice Action, Concepts 1.4.1 ?
Hey M - what is a good platform to trade micro, I want to connect to broker to TV - I have Ironbeam but haven’t funded yet, can switch if advised @nocturne sigil
I use TradeStation and will open Tradovate soon, for futures trading direct on TV with my own cash account. I do not use prop firm. With my personal account only.
Got it, thanks
I believe its a contract change, not a gap up
Scroll up right above your post, I have explained the futures contract roll over several times past week, days and currently. Hope this helps
Find anything? I'm sure they would tease something if you ask 😉
LOL
hang on for future goodies.....
And i dont see the latest NQ/ES contract in NinjaTrader. Am I blind?
its all SEP23
Strange, did you try to manually search for MESZ or MNQZ ?
I had to manually add it to the instrument list.
It was also showing the rollover date as 9/11
Ill have to remember this for the next rollover, just in case
@hearty rivet got kidnapped?
passed out from too much shisha
What is shisha strategy?
Cool thanks a lot

Welcome to luxalgo!
Yeah, im currently trading it, already owned it for a few days

@drowsy pawn has earned the Lux Level 1 role!
Smaaaaccckkkk
Idiots YOLO’ing the last part of session. I hope they all run into a brick wall face first full force. Dumbasses!
Apparently the idiots are cornered and stuck in longs. Lol.
whats the best broker to use and what aout 0 day options
isnt a 0DTE like contract leverage crypto fuiture
I just realized why longs are so persistent…. Vvix reading is 85.27. Anything under 85 is long all day long anyway so it close enough. 🤦🏻♂️. I made the rookie mistake of not checking my resources and wondering what the heck is going on. Well…my question was answered. 🤷🏻♂️
0’DTE is 0 days till expiration and has potential to give big returns and in hand big losses. Enough people doing it could destabilize the market in one direction or another. I personally don’t like them. But you have you’re own tastes. If you’re big on risk, then I’d say do it…. I don’t recommend it though. I don’t know what broker is best for 0’DTE’s being I don’t trade them.
Thinkorswim might be a good one. They’re big and powerful for options.
Depends on asset class.
mini

I use Tradestation and will have Tradovate soon for futures
Is tradovate cheap with fees? Or is it like all the rest of them?
I believe they have lower fees vs Tradestation
I like to have 2 accounts in the event one broker goes down on technical update or logon issues etc
Me too. I use 3. But looking to drop and replace one.
Have a great weekend traders. Don’t be like me today. Dot your I’s and cross your T’s before entering trades. 😁
But your survived and know "why"
As long as you know "why"
then your good
I know why. Lol. I been doing this for awhile and just needed a kick in the butt for getting complacent. Today is now a winner. A grain of sand winner, albeit.
would you think it would be going down then as it hit weak high
Could be, since it looks like a few LL's? But need to see what DXY is doing as well
I normally don't pay much attention to the squeeze indicator, but noticed that for the past few days both /ES and /NQ futures were at 100%. Curious whether people take this into consideration, especially those seeking short positions.
Are we ready for NQ this week?
Dashboard Squeeze is good!

🤏🏽
Ohhhh ranging markets
I thought purple candles was a indication of ranging markets?
Mehh, not always
There can be small trends while candle color is purple
Absolutely my enemy
What do y’all do while the market is closed? I’m absolutely bored on the weekends
Haha, yeah me too!
Purple candles just indicate either a trend weakness or not a trending market
Not perfect since it’s an indicator but when using the indicator could filter some entries especially if you are trading trends
Ahhhh got it that makes a little more sense
I wonder if with the new wave of ICT traders if most are still trading trends
Yes that as well
Even though I think for the best setups you usually look for ChoCh / MSS so its still kind of a trend
Market structure shift
Basically an impulse MSS
Usually needs to leave 2 - 3 FVG on the ChoCh for a perfect MSS
Ohhhhhh got it
Go to the gym and go do bjj 
💪
@violet hearth has earned the Lux Level 3 role!
Thats me
😅
Lol
is market closed?
no lol
nvm
i set my limit orders
though i feel like it wont come back to this fvg rn until those equal lows are taken
so manual manuevering is prefered
To be expected ahead of CPI honestly.
OHHHHHHHHHH Shisha @hearty rivet is here all of the sudden?
YESSS BABY
ive been taking care of my baby nephew
they are pain in the ass lmaoo
but love him
loooool
remember, no shisha around the new baby!
ya im smoking in the kitchen lmao
OMG
Heading back up to that FVG @hearty rivet
Yip
dont forget to take partials
haha my g
trendline holding strong, consider it a partial here
if weclose below it god dayum
Partials secured
good job
if you took partials put your sl at BE
and dont move it ,enjoy risk free trade
Man oh man. This is like taking candy from a baby. Lol
ES chart is a beaut. I hope everyone is catching these moves on the 5 min frame. Moving like clock work. Must be institutional alto’s making it a free giveaway today!!! 
Booooy!!!!!! I’m timing these scalps to the second today! I wonder if the algo’s are following me today??? Hmmm…. Weird. As soon as I reverse a trade I goes in my direction. 
Watch this. Price will reverse back up after hitting 4534.50.
See here we go. 🤷🏻♂️
I’m scared now. This is weird.
4536 bounce back up
Is it possible to reset buy/sell signals such that they apply to the day rather than history? Spy has a buy signal late the 8th but nothing for the day, when there was a good shift mid-morning down and back up.
I think it’s all in the script and how they wrote signals to appear. But I didn’t write it so I don’t know. I’m sorry. I’m sure Mikey can help you out! He’s the man!
Micky
Any chance Tsla goes down
TSLA is legit driving the markets today hahaha
curious if ES break 4493 before the market close
Not a chance trader.
What a bunch of scumbags flushing like that. I know it’s just a stop hunt but still. Fuckin up my trading session profit percentages. Dickheads.
But can it go down Tommorw tho I have a short trade Lmaoo
Oh I know…. Hey I got the best day today ever. Read above posts. Lol. Just excited is all.
Now that the session is over, I’m just messing around on paper. Low and behold, I got out at the perfect time. Added 1 mes long love just to see what this market has in store. Tomorrow is game on again! 10 ES per trade. 👍😇
- live ( I meant).
Not following tesla but I know that morgan stanley said a few good stuff about tesla
Hello guys, hope you are all fine. What are your views concerning NQ today? 😄
push downward to 15594 area maybe a bit lower and bounce
@ornate raven thanks
@ornate raven what is the symbol for NQ futures in Trading view?
just type in NQ and its the top one
@nocturne sigil anything on ES1! this morning?
Alot of congestion here on the 15m
Gotta love the congestion
The way I see is it's gonna be in consolidation before a big move occurs
Great play on the Breaker Block, but now hitting another OB on same bar and next, arrrggghhhh
Did you see that big green candle just turn into a red one?
Thanks. I was a bit confuse because the price does not relate to the one in NinjaTrader
on ninja you should be using NQ DEC23
Bullish Butterfly on the 1 minute chart which is a small move on the 5 minutes chart.
Oh okay, I didn't know that. I just take a trade, once finish then I will make the necessary adjustment. Thanks bro
no problem
No Shisha? @hearty rivet
add volume
you'll catch the OB / BB breakout better without getting the drawdown on the re-test
Damn what a nice sweep on the ES and NQ
Anyone take some NQ short scalps?
hahahaha
show us some nice charts

Yooo
Just got back to Istanbul
@nocturne sigil MIIICCKKEHH
I spent 3 days
Using google translate to talk to some German chicks
I’m finally at my safe haven

did they talk back to you?
they all speak english anyways
Yeah
Paragraphs and paragraphs
I understand German just shit at writing
The translated things are 100% wrong and I just can’t be arsed to fix it haha
haha, im the opposite. Can read it and speak it, but when people talk to me, i freeze
Nah brah
living here in Germany, pretty much everyone under 50 speaks it. At least thats what ive found
LOL!
@ashen dagger different person, again answers in German

The love to German language is unprecedented
oof! i mean, i get it
my girlfriend is germany, and she knows how much i "love" speaking german, haha
german*
she tells me its a beautiful language, and i just nod my head
Whats all this dating chatter we have?
It didnt happen unless pics


My time in Germany was a mixture of google translated dating chats and babysitting
Does squeeze matter when scalping?
another nice catch (textbook ICT concepts with Lux Algo - ICT Silver Bullet Indicator):
should've started even sooner according to Matrix Oscillator, contrarian signal appeared at the top + divergence
LOOOK AT CHUUUU
ICT Master


ooo CPI today. Should be fun
I mean I have off day
CPI is definitely coming higher, and it will crash markets
question is only how ... high 🙂
0.2-0.4% is accounted for
0.5%+ is not lol
why do you think markets are going up now? so they can fall from a higher level 😛
well, was withing expected parameters, so the awkward long ... short would've been a gain
with the tightest SL ever lol
her ass ☝️

so much liquidity up
turn on the program and get trading
Yup 👍
C'mon market, dip or rip please.
Almost there
Out of curiosity, LOOK at the Signals & Overlays Dashboard Squeeze
And then look at where price is within the PAC Pattern

lets go
i'm still with the old contract, i guess i need to roll over by friday
targeting NWOG
ehhhhh

i closed all for today
sold NQ at 15400?
im on micros
ooft
ill explain my trade after
waiting
gonna wait good because im holding till im either stopped or market closed or tp
its same setup strategy, see if you can pinpoint it with your own eyes manually
3 mins MSS at 19:03, entru at FVG above 15400
so you're on the new contract haha i was looking at the old cons
retested it again i could have had an entry there but oh well
so many equal lows
very nice take profit targets for partials
first equal lows at 100 ticks taken
but its not 1rr or 2rr partial for me to take yet
whch side
Let's get that shisha money @hearty rivet
here we go thank god
Yes
stop loss at BE even thoguh its a shitty place for a stop loss
now risk free trade
enjoy the ride back to my german lesson

told you those equal lows look spicy.
my max target is that grey box which is NWOG/NDOG , which has an imbalance inbetween aswell as an inverse imbalance. could think of it as an equilibirium
LFG
YES BABY
Heading to that high of the I nbalance on the daily
i chickened out too early from ES christ
Stick to your plan
Looking good
Shisha money
im in library so no shisha lol

actual MSS on 5m
but its too late now
price is rebalance here and market close nearing
Nice
well done Leefit
Well done Caca
enjoy the shisha profits, thank god and stick to plan
watch it hit NWOG
yeah 3 accounts.
Damn that’s a lot!
How much percent is that win?
Nice
could have been more but i shat it on a few trades
My profit is like 1% of your profit😂
That’s because I don’t trade with that much money
profit is profit
I am trading with €400 (£350~) with a leverage of 1:5 so that makes sense
Its the maximum leverage of my broker but i still want like 1:30/1:40
i went all in but it's going down send help
yeah that's it. let me grab a referral link if you're interested

careful with their trail stoploss, it trails live not the end of the day
so if you make $500 profit now, your max drawdown goes up by $500 on the spot
why did you enter. dont give your profits back to market. nevertheless you should be in profits now
i was joking haha program closed
actual netry is reaching lolol
Hmm
Luke wheres a link to your chart?
dont enter tho
might take it as a bonus

Couldn’t find the indicator “sessions liquidity tracker” is it sth Lux provides?
love you sexc boi
Use lux sessions for that
Love u too smexc

Everyone doing ok here?
yes sir
I saw
The notification
But I’m in bathroom
Hahahaha
Price is very bullish
yip
There is multiple
Who's scalping some SPY?
Q's?
Who got lucky on SIlver?
anything is tradeable, right?
Price tried to take these levels yesterday before crashing. Today it will if gods allows
lets do cotton futures
you training your arm? 
Yes

hey luke, what do you use to draw in those previous significant liquidity levels?
if not an indicator, what are you specifically looking at to determine them (if you don't mind me asking)?
124 ticks collected, im done for the day @hearty rivet you still in the bathroom?
Let me get out of bathroom and I’ll explain
LOOOOOL Gg . I love making money when others are in bahnroom
Such a hard flex
He's liquidated 💩
don't think he was taking a jobby 🤔
Which news ?
according to the shisha strat atleast
Yah, we trade PM session of red box news
atleast it was profit though lmao
Yea
but watch out for it, don't think its worth it usually
This indicator will show unraided session high/lows
we play the chance game here
Yes
I don’t usually use those settings I manually check. But it’s extrnemly powerful thing. If you get a sweep and price is near another sweep then it may want to sweep that. Helps get those juicy early entries
gotta be careful with that script as well. The chart can begin to look like a mess if you enable too many things. lol
OH yes i have and use this. was more wondering about those previous day levels, etc.
oh i thought he was just showing previous unraided levels, which would be enabling this.
Why can't I find it 😦
my bad. lol going back towkr
it's a private script.
🥲

wanna see a little trick? its no secret, but often overlooked
Contrarian Candle Colors to fade the pumps and dumps, using pivot highs/lows

use the Matrix Turning Points and confluence zone to time your scalp entries
Another thigh is taken
Officially no more liquidity up
Expect maybe the NY am session high once we enter PM
lets see what the evening is bringing us
sorry if you answered this before, but still curious how you determine those previous liquidity levels?
puuush
old highs or previous session highs

@hearty rivet PM choch on the 5 mins son
I really?
Soo gooooddd
go back in the bathroom you
it was a fvg but it got filled
sketchy pullback
my morning trade would've worked in full
TP2 was 15448
but like a coward prick, I closed around 15400
15300 to 15448, would've been a nice trade 😛
great job from Lux to draw levels
Nice one
I only caught London morning to 15400, Luke
screenshot is from yesterday's lows
accurate levels for that indicator
Lux ICT Silver Bullet, free indicator
Ya silver buller is nice model to trade

Secret to success
Is to spend quality time in the bathroom before a trade
Don’t FOMO in while in the bathroom. Hold yourself back, or hold something else if you so desire.. 
back in the day when DAO's were in a hype (3yrs ago maybe) I did $20k while i was taking a shite. 15 mins = 20k
good times with time winderland, klima and so on
What do we think tomorrow holds
Opportunity, tomorrow hold opportunity lol
On NQ Im thinking we take a couple lows we continue to go up. Looks to me we want to target last weeks high. So maybe something like the screenshot.
Yeah we look like we broke out on the 4H- could see a light pullback then liftoff. Curious how quad witching influences movement tomorrow. Should see a big volume surge during regular trading hours.
The transition between contracts isnt crazy, so Im not expecting to much more volatility.
Guys should I hold my put option for Tsla I got it 20 mins before the thing closes u think Tsla can go down Tommorw ?
Ooofff
Beautiful Target
I mean
Drop to q target I thought will be hit soon which did, no trade
If I only knew for sure
Whats shaking in the Emini world?
Quad witching anticipation is upon us
The dump is on
CHECK this out, on the 15m
Both the PAC patterns called it ahead of time for the breakdown
Insane
BUT they do give you pause to analyze your ideas
Yeah
It's always hard to find good entries when those massive dumps occur
I give you an example
I'm trying to snipe a good entry on 1 minute from the 5 minutes chart to follow the trend
But it's hard because I'm so close to the Strong Low
im going to ask this in here because yall are super smart....but please dont respond like im an idiot or its all black and white, because i am fairly convinced its not....but im still hoping to get some direction of the "most correct" line of thinking.
so i really like structure trading, but as i read and watch more on it ive begun to doubt some of my knowledge.....i am struggling in defining what is swing and what is internal...i think because of the fractal nature of trading they are all both at the same time....so i get confused (mostly on the higher time frames) as to what i should identify as swing and what i should identify as internal.
Let me post a few pics as example....
so in this image i marked in white my identified swing high and swing low and the areas of interest for each....
but then circled in the middle Lux has identified structure change inside of this range as well as more internal swiing highs and lows
so since this is the daily, am i better off using the zoomed in version that lux identifies
becuase even inside those you can identify "swing high and low points".....even though you could arge those are not even valid because there are not multiple consistent candles in the same direction
sure would love your opinion
I don't trade mostly based on "indicators"
I could have a chart with 0 indicators and still trade
The most important part in trading is understand where the price is heading long term by analyzing trends on longer timeframes.
yeah - im starting here on the daily because i usually trade on the 1m and 3m
so starting on daily then 4hr 15m and then on down
What you have to do is to look for higher timeframes and see if the price is ranging or trending
In smaller timeframes, just take trades that aren't against the trend, because you know banks are looking to ether buy or sell in the long term
right
and that is what im doing....since i trade on low timeframes the daily is my higher time frame
How are you entries then?
I think we are about to reverse
How are your entries?
It looks like yes in the short term, I would still look for a sell signal after the reversal
But it looks like it's sold off a lot now
not bad.....im just trying to get "back to basics" because i know this aspect is the core foundation to quality trades
Reminder U Mich consumer setiment at 10am EST
@brazen widget has earned the Lux Level 1 role!
so with no indicators, one could say the white is swing and the yellow is internal......but at the same time someone could also argue that the yellow is your swing if you are looking at the daily and just marking lines of importance if your eventual goal is trading the 1 min.
not sure that I get your question
(see post immediately before yours @night flicker ) it kinda sums it up
@gloomy helm Are you in or not yet?
Not taking this entrie
Price will consolidate before reversal
so i am just trying to figure out on the higher time frames like the daily in doing top down analysis, is it important to separate what is swing and what is internal, or at this high of a timeframe compared to the 1 min is the main thing to identify when we break out of the most narrow range since these are entire days for each candle?
oh ok, the way that I see is just how long did it take to create the swing, it takes time to master this (not sure that I master it) but you see when the swing was created only by a couple of candles and when it was created by a long period of a move (long / up) and then started to go at the opposite direction for a while
What's important is how you get in a trade and how you exit
You can get in a trade for 1 minute and exit with $0.01 profit
the small swing (the white ones) are the internal swing low / high, if you want to trade those then your sl / tp should also be on the LTF
thats ES on the daily right?
yeah
I'll show how I see it
my thought is the white lines is the true swing and the yellow is internal...but since i am tradin the 1 min, the ones that matter to me at THIS level is going to be the internal since that internal swing alone is over a weeks worth of time
and once i break the internal i need to know where the swing is as that would likely be the next target
consolidating
Back go
Not yet on futures. On ETFs I just entered a weekly call on QQQ.
U longing @hearty rivet ?
Straight to the gap
Nope, it’s only a target never an entry
thats 4H
I removed 1 white because I moved to the 4H instead of 1H
I didn't change 1 yellow line by mistake
the second to the left here supposed to be white
@night flicker yeah i actually totally agree with you on that high and low of the the yellow daily.
i think what jacks my brain up is how lux identifies the structure with candle colors turned on
i think it is coloring itself based on the internal and not the swing
keep in mind that lux is just an indicator, it uses math instead of visualization
though i guess technically its correct
because it did break that lower yellow line
so the flip to bearish i would agre on
but the flip back to bullish recently is where it doesnt amke sense to me
and where it confused me
Is there a reason why i don´t get any new data?
yes, i think i need to just do it all manually since i usally feel like i got it good until i turn on lux to make it "easier" and then it doesnt agree with what i marked and i start questioning myself
that is a really good point @night flicker because we might see a really defined swing 7 bars back, but if its only looking 5 bars back it wont see that and could provide different results
watch out for news
HEHE BOI
University Michigan Sentiment Prelim Actual 67.7 (Forecast 69, Previous 69.5)
exactly
PAC can help you make it quicker but you'll need to manual it after LUX to make sure
actually
i know this sounds dumb
but it looks like if i adjust the internal numbers
i can get it to respond pretty close to what i think it should be
but then again it would also be on that setting and im "fixing it" for now....but doesnt mean it will be right in the future
Can someone help?
i don´t get new data...
so i wonder if there is a good "Average length" anyone has determined
i know lux free swing indicator uses 21, yet PAC using 5 for internal and 50 for swing
Your on the old contract just type in nq1 into the bar of what you want to trade and it should fix it
This sucker keeps going
🤔
Shisha money
only picked the micro reversal on 1 minute and then dipped for the day 
but yeah expect it to go for a while
Its gonna hit a 4H OB soon, so I think this move is almost over for the day, we shall see
Yeah
There's no more room on this train for him, we will come back and pick him up later

Well my bias was completely wrong. Woke up and the market dropped it like it was hot.
@opal ridge
I mentioned yesterday all upside liquidity in terms of sessions highs of all previous sessions combined have been swept and that no more liq upside
I do remember you saying that.
But on the higher tf we were looking pretty bullish. Because clear target equal highs as well as we were about to close above daily besiege FVG on daily.
We're you able to catch some of that drop?
Is the drop done for now? 👀
But it took a drop before closing above, hence why I was in a trade yesterday not based on a setup but based on pure market behavior
just beautiful lol
Wow the sellside draw on liquidty for ES and NQ is pretty nasty today!!!
Nah I was working today
LOOOOKL
I have it on 3 for Internal and 50 Swings, gives you the Market Structure a lot faster and more acurate
@amber chasm has earned the Lux Level 1 role!
I have Autopilot for the 1H/4H and on Mid Term, and on my 15/5/3min on Autopilot and Short term,
Can someone tell me the pros and cons to a funded trading account?
What types of funded accounts are there? What different brokers are there are and why are they better or worse than others??
What types of securities besides Futures can you trade? Options, stocks, ETF's, etc.
Thanks to anyone who answers any of these questions. Same questions with prop firms^^

Hello friends. I'm new to the group. I'm curious what scalp strategies have you found most useful for NQ? 🙂 You can DM me directly if you'd like too.
Handful of good strategies that work on NQ here #1128499789437354106
For me, my own funds. My own rules, my own schedule, I decided when I want to withdraw. I keep 100% of my wins
not quite the best approach in a new community, Cat 🙂 some might think you must be entitled to receive hard worked solutions just because you just joined :)))
better check channels first, like this one: #1128499789437354106
a community works best with public knowledge, not DMs
just saying lol
Whoops sorry. 🤦♂️ I definitely don’t feel entitled.
Hey it’s all good and welcome. There are some great minds here. You can ask questions about other members strats and offer ideas as well. And NQ and the micro version has been a very popular symbol lately here 
anyone know how the Demand/Supply Zones are measured in the PAC Indicator?
Awesome! Glad to be here! 😀
Welcome aboard!
I'm going over yesterdays' PA, and I noticed that on the 5 Min after price Broke the Equilibrium Zone with a Bearish Engulfing Candle (If you don't know, Double Inside Bars (Blue Bar) and Outside Bars are really powerful) and made a new LL, so I drew my Fibs from the High of the Outside Bar (White Candle) to the LL and I saw a Rejection from the .70 Entry area literally to the Cent, missed the Fact that it also rejected Previous Days Low, it then proceeded to drop into the Discount Zones on the 15 Min and 1 Hr, and the Equilibrium Zone on the 4 Hr, Coincidence? Imma go back test this, specially on Days where Price doesn't Pullback like yesterday. Any thoughts? This is MNQZ
Insane R/R if you put SL a few ticks above the .88 Fib which is my Extreme SL because I refine my entries a lot. and use the Discount on 15 M/1Hr as Profit Target with a minimum of 5 Contracts (Its a Sell)
Yeah, I like fibs for validating my PAC levels
It’s always better to use funded accounts , never risk your capital or real money. Market can wipe you in seconds
Loving it
so lets just say i get a funded account for 10k right, if i make 1k for the week am i getting all that 1k orthey take a percentage obviously
Apex

hey @hearty rivet, could you explain me a lil bit how Apex works ? Why the monthly fee is so high ? What needs to be paid except market data and Ninja license for the price to be this high when taking a bigger account? Shouldn't it be an initial fee instead ?
Apex is always running a discount so you should always apply the code for that, should bring it down to a much more reasonable price.
It's a monthly fee until you pass the account then you get a choice to pay a small monthly sub for the passed account or a lifetime fee which is a little more expensive.
Oh I see ! What is the monthly fee once the evaluation is passed ? Just to give me an idea\
Depends on the size of the account you pass. Each one varies. I don't know off the top of my head, sorry about that but I'm sure it says somewhere on their website
PAID /FUNDED ACCOUNT FEE
$105 Per Account/Month
20 PA Accounts Maximum
Includes Data/Ninja Platform Fee
Or One Time Fee Options: Click Here
is that this amount ?
You have the choice on that check out page to choose a monthly Tradovate PA Fee option of $105 monthly, or you have an option for a one time, Lifetime Payment for that particular account. NOTE: Once you choose monthly or Lifetime, you are not able to change it later on this particular account.
25k PA Tradovate Activation Account Lifetime Fee $150
50k PA Tradovate Activation Account Lifetime Fee $160
75k PA Tradovate Activation Account Lifetime Fee $200
100k PA Tradovate Activation Account Lifetime Fee $240
150k PA Tradovate Activation Account Lifetime Fee $280
250k PA Tradovate Activation Account Lifetime Fee $320
300k PA Tradovate Activation Account Lifetime Fee $360
I believe so. I'm not sure when you apply the code it applies to the passed account fee as well so it could be less
found it !
That'd be awesome
I am currently trying a CFD prop firm but maybe i'll give Apex a try eventually
Isn't risky dealing with a prop firm established in the USA atm ? 😛
Futures props should be fine because they are regulated, Forex wasn't so they under a little heat. So you'll be good
Awesome thank you ! 🙂
No prob, good luck!
Passed fee is normal 100$, all of funded accounts take this into account
@hearty rivet Long time listener, first time caller here. Do you still go live playing liquidity raids during RTH?
Hey bro. Yes
Very nice! Roughly what time typically and more importantly where if you don't mind.
Ok so the fee is fixed per PA accounts and your referral code does not change it
On here voicechat stream and everyday or every other r day
Yep. The 80% will be recurring every month for the subscription
What if I blow the evaluation account or the live account? Discount is loss forever?
No you either wait for next month and pay again 80% discounted fee or buy new account
I just buy new account
Thank you sir! Your strategy channel chat q's & a's and videos are proving to be most helpful. Appreciate ya.
the funded accounts where you have to do a trial i dont really get, so you pay for a funded account and then you have tio oike pass a trial or something?
Appreciate the kind feedback! Many thanks
You buy evaluation simulation account, if you pass profit target and then they give you real funded
If a buy another account what happens to the monthly fees of the previous one that has been breached ? They don't renew the next month?
so if i do not pass the sim account am i still charged for that month?
You can cancel them or keep them
I at one point had 20 accounts simultaneously
but if i did not pass the sim account wouldnt i not get funded??
Yeah month ends and renews your account
the whole simulation trading doesnt make sense, I get the funded account now they just take a fee of any profits
Unless you cancel it
It makes sense because otherwise people would buy account snd trade news like CPI
Not really skill
That looks very interesting. Copy trading allowed and everything. Is there something I should be aware of ? Lets say I take the 150K FULL Tradovate account. Except the monthly subscription fee and the reset fee there are no other payments that needs to be done ? Could they charge me something if I cancel an account or make them loose money?
Market should be bearish on Monday right
can i trade SPY options with this 25K funded acct via apex??
That would be the ES ticker for futures, which is the S&P500 so same thing pretty much
yeahh I know that but I have gotten pretty comfortable with SPY and ive never traded ES, even looking at the charts compared they are pretty similar but not exectly th same
Dang DXY looks super Bullish, might see a lot more Dumping this month
No other payment. All data etc included, tradingview linking free too
Ok thank you Luke. I might DM you later for your referral link.
Anyone see that 1 Hr Bearish Breaker Block loaded with 68% Volume? also forms Confluence with the Equilibrium Zone. The Oscillator is also showing Bullish Reversal Triangle and a Bullish Divergence for a Short term Long play to that same Breaker block. 👀
I would go higher / lower TF to figure out if its valid
Ready for Monday?
YOOOOO
Loooool
I’m bored @nocturne sigil
What is your prediction for Gold ?
Appreciate the lighter colour charts. Couldn’t see anything on the dark theme!
I get flashbangged from the light mode
Just saw it
lol what is this pa today?
maybe this is about to be something. getting a bearish choch
or nope
NOT very pretty today
Getting ready for Wednesday
What a boring day, Havent taken a Single trade,
No Bullish CHoCH on 1 Hr or no Displacements
slow day today.
buncha Fakeouts
🪠
how accurate are the Signals? @nocturne sigil
Depends on how you use the signals
Just need to look at the whole picture
Is it non lagging?
Signal confirms at candle close
So no lags at all
100% real time
You just need to learn to filter the signals
pretty sure a thorough explanation is needed, Micky
the moment I see thwe question: how accurate is .....?
Yea Ill try it
I am like 90% sure the trader intends to use it as it is
while in reality, the best usage of signals is to wait for one to appear and then enter the first retracement in the direction of the signal. that's probably its best use
and the answer to the follow up question about retracement, could be: 50% of the candle who triggered the signal, if its a huge one. or a significant orderblock if not
yeah, and or a play off of TL's or S/R or pattern TL's
Yea Outside Engulfing candles work well w this
example of the logic above:
very strong green candle, at the beginning of the trend
take half of it, set your limit order
exit strategy is something you decide on
yeap, probably bounced from the Fib GZ, and you can TP at the .272 Extension
50% of the candle is something you can decide by actually using the Fib tool in TV
you don;t have to measure it
@exotic zealot has earned the Lux Level 1 role!
We shall see how it reacts to the 4H OB's

Down*
Im just waiting on my 1H and 15 min to go Green ChoChs lol

Yeaap days before FOMC are ALWAYS like this, sucks for Option Traders too, the IV Crush is nasty on WED

Tough day, when in doubt, take what it gives you

thanks bro
Xavier, if anybody would be judged by the nicknames used, half of the new traders would be crypto gurus 🙂
So you have a pretty good detailed video from LuxAlgo and the written docs for the Matrix @vagrant dawn
while in reality, the first question new traders ask is always: best settings? 🙂 which is far from what the nicknames might suggest
jokes aside, I would love to see new traders try to reach the level of expertise suggested by their social media nicknames
in the last few months I only see less and less interest to learn and specialize, and more interest on copy/paste ideas
maybe 2024 will be different, @nocturne sigil , innit?
GOOD things as always ✅
@hearty rivet Whats more important? Your Lux fam here? or the hospital patients?
🤷🏻♂️
best bet would be the patients 🙂 unless he wants to damage his professional image and say trading lol
p.s. pretty sure it's trading, though :)))

Could someone tell me if the Order Blocks on the ES are based on stock trades, ES contracts, or option order flow?
Based on price action
you still waiting on the fill?
Thanks!
Well damn. Didn't quite get the target that I wanted. But wanted to get out before it came down any further.
Finally heading to my Limit Orders, took all day🤣
S&P and the Nasdaq looking so boring right now
Yes🤣
Got filled lets see if I dont get Stopped out lol
yeah it made a nasty little dip right there. Going to be a little sad if it shoots back up to my original target of 15467.75
