sadly youtube algorithm is either what was most clicked or or what was payed to be at the top of specific searches
it’s pretty predatory
Unfortunately this is true
I fortunately have never payed for a course. I have payed for indicators tho 🤷🏼♂️
obviously
Yup. I paid for 2.
One in 2017 and the last one was 2018.
I spent HOURS on YT and began compiling my own approach.
Today, I pay for LuxAlgo. Only
Well I just meant I payed for lux algo lol
Makes sense
ok so no chating about options then?
Oh it’s a joke buddy 😁
I learned everything I needed to in this chat and am slowly becoming consistently profitable lol
a lot of us just don’t trade options.
ok then I'm going to ask something about options.
My strategy isn’t new.
It’s The Opening Range Breakout
I just use 5/15m charts to figure it out.
there’s probably someone here who can help tho
nice
so i have been going through all these different options strategies on youtube and when I simulate what could happen if i implement the specific scenario, I usually see something like max profit is say for example $350 and then my max loss is like $500 if thinks go above and maybe $800 if they go below.
The key takeaway is that I am always risking a max profit that is always less than the potential loss. I am wondering if that is the way it is or if i am doing something wrong.
Yooooo 😂😂
I basically get all the relevant facts and then tell chatgpt to run all the possible scenarios that could happen and it is always like ideal situation you win X dollars, but if it goes outside the range you set above you lose 2X and if it goes below your range you lose 3X.
i've done around 6 different stategies.
😬 idk man I’m not into Options. Someone out there might.
Good luck 🍀
@hasty pilot yeah it looks like not a path i want to take. plus I have to sit on the sidelines while the contract is not closed out either having cash or stock as collateral. i'm thinking it is not really a good path for what i want to do.
I’m super Bias.
Go with Futures.
Many prop firms out there focused on futures.
Topstep
And Fast Track Trading.
Link in my bio.
MUCH better odds of winning in futures. Ask anyone
I learned about options years ago.
Not worth my energy.
nice man. I was just about to ask what do you guys like about futures.
@hasty pilot any rationale why futures have better odds of winning?
I am wondering if anyone can share lux oscillator matrix setup that works well on 5min timeframe for stocks
Iron condor
can some one suggest a video that shows how to buy and sell futures? the mechanics of it. what do i do if i go long and what do i do if i go short. and what if i have a long contract and short contract at the same time running. how do i close out one and not the other. preferably on thinkorswim but maybe another broker is fine if it is similar conceptually
Here are Think or Swim Support docs
https://toslc.thinkorswim.com/center/faq/General
The CME offers training on their website
Futures is boring.
I trade US Index Futures.
Not just any futures.
Index or indices are a basket of stocks.
Options copy stocks.
Futures are bundles of stocks in one basket.
Index trading is better because of the momentum and the fact that each candle in futures is FAR more profitable than a single candle in NVDA or Tesla or Meta.
It’s like trading ALL TECH STOCKS at once and being reward at once
The basic answer is Futures are far more easier to get into.
I’ve only explained 5%
On YouTube many others can explain all of the differences and advantages of each asset class.
The best place to learn
They offer a certification
you can put on your resume
i'm doing the /ES futures so following the SPY
Perfect
ES moves like a Horse 🐎
NQ moves like a Bull 🐂
YM moves like a Cow 🐄
RTY moves like a Elephant 🐘
That’s how I think of index futures.
so far the docs suck. I was reading their docs on the Reverse button and it was not helpful. I need more like a video where they talk through scenarios.
super cool thanks. so you don't do commodity futures just the financial futures?
and so the faster moving ES is great if you are right about the direction but can be quick losses as well?
Yeah I like to ride a bull and get paid for every second I’m in lol
Futures aren't just a bundles of stocks...they are contracts between 2 people with a settlement date, a derivative, used for hedging or speculation but mostly hedging.
I think I'm good on the theory of futures and what they are and all. It is more about the specific mechanics of actually going in on a trade on a specific platform that I need.
No. ES is more calm than NQ.
Meaning each candle can move 3-6 points.
NQ candle can make 30-60 point moves
Do whats best for your strategy
You’re saying I’m a lier.
Google futures once more my friend.
Thats the thing, it complements, once you understand the fundamentals its makes life easy
?? who said that?
i understand the fundamentals. now just need the execution part
I added on to what you said.
Index futures not Futures as a whole.
Index futures are basket of stocks in one.
Think in terms of “riding on them”
oh i see. got it. thanks @hasty pilot
My mentor was Albert Brooks.
Check him out on YouTube.
Good luck 🍀
thanks i will check him out
Hey do you guys believe it will go down to 513
In the next couple of weeks?
I’m kind of new using this indicator
just searched Albert Brooks on youtube and getting lots of videos about a ventriloquist 😂 . After putting his name and futures trading i see who you probably are refering to @hasty pilot .
You’re just going to research and find the info. Lots of video tutorials on the web.
yeah i looking now
see if I can find someone trading and clicking buttons and see how they do it.
@atomic meteor My honest opinion, get a sim account, start a scientific approach to the market as in a form a hypothesis and try it out. No YouTube video will give you the exact wisdom you will learn than trying all by yourself, don't get me wrong they help but not to the level where you are competing with institutions. Use CME website they are literally the exchange and they have all your questions answered. Everyone on here has their bias and perspective, take it as perspective. Test out all your hypothesis, and form a conclusion. This is how I became profitable and figured out my edge in this competitive space.
Yup, we do our own research, test, experiment and trade according to our style. That’s it 
There are a hundred different reasons to go long or short on the same candlestick. No one is right or wrong. It all comes down to what we have learned and how we implement that into practice
by sim account, that would include paper trading right? or do you mean something else?
horizontal line
I've been fine tuning mine for years and as market conditions and "life" conditions change I have to backtest and fine tune again. It's a never ending process, but if you love the work that goes into creating a great strategy.. eventualy it should pay off.
@cerulean summit I like what you said "start a scientific approach to the market as in form a hypothesis and try it out". Right now I have no way of knowing anything about the direction of the market. I couldn't confidently tell you if the stock will go up, go down, or even in non-directional trading which range it will stay within. I am purely guessing right now. I want to find out how to have some amount of data or backing behind my decsions.
i like to compare it to professional athletes
Kobe Bryant practiced shooting with his left hand for thousands of hours which seems like such a waste of effort and time for a right handed person. He did it in case he ever injured his right hand during a game. If you fall in love with the process you start to push past the "hobbyist" traders who do this for thrills or entertainment.
Yuppers 💯
could you or someone expound on "competing with institutions"? I don't see there being a competition between what I am doing and what the institutions are doing but I hear that often. In what way am I and the institutions competing with each other? They are buying and selling and I am buying and selling. so how do we bump heads?
Market Makers need YOUR liquidity to fill large orders..but it's over simpliffying things, they need everyones liquidty.
You are but a spec of sand and they have sand castles to build
The idea is to try and follow along with their liqduity needs. That's the entire concept of being a profitable retail trader
just looking at NQ you can see where the buying liquidity stopped, that large order block was kind of a like a "save point" by market makers. They SOLD off a ton of stuff but bought NQ futures as on the way down
Where the "bumping heads" comes in is if you were for sure that everything "should" be going up and then tried to out live the liquidty fill
it could go on for some time, normally when a retail trader runs out of money
anyways sorry to ramble im waiting for a game release to download lol
Please go into more detail.
Al Brooks trading lol - *** DO NOT PAY FOR ANY COURSE *
The market needs liquidity to move around, aggressive buyers and sellers move the market to price level to reflect future fair market value for the underline asset. It is your job to flow with the aggressiveness and not to go against the market. You can partispate as a passive investor, where they sit at price level to either buy or sell there. THOSE guys point which direction the market should head too. So yes this is pure competion, trying to get your orders at the price you respect and also getting in fast to reduce slippage.
This my friends is pure capitalisms.
don't pay for any course? why not?
NQ breaking?
I’ll be looking for a bounce around 18750
Looks like a channel. Hit the midline during the last move up.
Would also close the daily FVG
Good morning everyone. Happy NFP day. Tidy your position or take the best setup by sitting on your hands (like me, hahaha). No gambling/FOMO.
🙃 nothing to see here folks
not a fact. Watch smaller timeframes, at least 4 hours
And you try it.
I have an issue I upgraded to lux premium and they took 2 different plans out
I got billed for the 1st and then again on the 4th
How do I resolve this issue
Hi there, please contact the accounts team through the chat widget at the bottom right corner of the LuxAlgo.com website, or email them through support@luxalgo.com. They will be able to help you resolve this.
love these colors so much
I was trolling please do not click on any videos that say how to make 6 figures a day with this Secret Indicator
The 4 hour is even more assuring that it’s going down to 515
😂
It just broke to a descending triangle
iron condor tesla calls
thats all I know
Non Farm Payrolls at 8:30 eyes up hands off
Jeezus
Good Morning!
anyone else trade NFP
me
nice did you make it out unscathed
i longed gold and shorted nq
I shorted NQ for a breakeven then longed
yeah i was not greedy got out fast
same I think my intrade time was 2 minutes LMAO\
nq seems to be bullish for now
but has to break alot of highs to really start going
many obs in the way
could be a sideways day unless the open is like 400+ points
gold is so weird
DXY is recovering but still lmao
I mean print was still soft just not as soft as expected
well nfp is a u turn day usually
rarely goes onesided
it fks both longs and shorts
you can play the fade if you know your levels
Let's see
I got a long placed at 18805
i scalped two longs fast
I hope it comes down to grab more liq
yes
Scaled out 1 contract on my short swing here
i am out now
got 60 points from the wick
nice shorts
i really had to take a short since it did 60% of that big red candle
we flushing it seems
it might go after london lows
oh i see a wick
Where's the volume?
its friday
Closed
With a loss. Limit orders are useless on LTF
might as well just play every tick
you never know this is nq
unless someone buys?
i already assumed it is gonna be sideways
if we break the lows then it is full bearish until next week cpi
bulls getting pounded
bulls always do V smh
reaction to previous lows
yeah we wicked from it
lets see if it holds
nice bounce
didnt take that long tho
oh well
i think ima call it early for today
enjoy the weekend
looks like complete trash to me
I think we die here
idk man i think no way we break these lows unless people wanna see a bear market
we are at critical levels atm
when you look at the monthly and weekly
all you can do now is play one tick at the time
Someone wants 18260 on Daily for the EMA bounce
you basically can't predict the price action at this time
i never do.i just take 50-50 scalps with good RR
i started the day with a loss on a flush in london but i got all of it back now in ny
All I can say is that they have been selling since 9:30
So in other words. Follow that until you see buying
Noone can predict a bounce
very rarely ny follows london but on days that do it is parabolic
we swept london before the open and crashed
Looks to me that we are about to bleed
So tag along until told otherwise
like right now ?
My long scalp did not work at expected level, we're full bear until any MA tells me otherwise
i aint lettling ma telling me what to do
i tell it to go up now
well anyways i am just monitoring atm
lows are still holding
Delta volume is below 0 , so yea, I am bear until that changes
Could be one of those days where we just keep going down to find the bottom
idk could be but doubt it
we got cpi next week
what are we gonna do go 15k until cpi ?
gotta save some lows for next week
🙂
these hedgies always play dirty tricks
I was bullish on open, until I saw the volume and price action
Close my long with -1k
i was actually bearish on open
Now that everyone waited for price to settle, we can look for setups now?

You folks waited? Right?
anyways
i think we go up
there is zero point to go down now when we got cpi next week
but hey you never know with these hedgies
im waiting for it to touch the horizontal line of justice
the ny session ends soon
hopefully things will calm down
if people book profits you will see price going up
hell no, still short after long fail
Sell your kids sell your wife
@nocturne sigil target 17k still there i bet
Cartia what’s upppp
let's see 18260 today
Yeah fr
Yeah same here, I took short on ES on a very VERY low stupid no so smart timeframe, took a paper cut on that, then doubled down for a second try on a short and stole back my money and then some with a 40 tick win.
Shits already difficult to trade with this chop
i booked my profits today and now just monitoring this bloodbath
Yeah seriously
I just supped to premium so ima backtest and see what works and what doesn’t
Smart trail and signals I think ima backtest
I guess I could look at strategies section lol
I blew an account because it wicked 😭😭💀

nvm we didnt all survive
@nocturne sigil you go live at 10;30 today?
was hoping to jump on for my first time
Soon, I need to get settled in and get everything cleaned up on my end with all my futures and forex trades during the news. Then Ill start the stream. Closer to 11am NY
sweet. look forward to it.
Let’s hear it
Your taking the mic today

I’m in the office! Or I would !

That 1 min 60 points was so random it got me off gaurd

Man what a bloodbath

Ended the week green…. Everyday has been green…. All the week is ending green. I love ❤️ GREEN 🥇🥇💰💰💰
Green is good
Green apples

Green chicken 🐔 dinner 🍽️
Not sure about green chicken, LOLLL
Sounds like spoiled maggot chicken
Unless is currey chicken, then YES

$1.78T wiped out in the first week of September. Is this the recession i wished for a couple years back? 
lets not remind NVDIA in what they lost as well
😬
rip NVDA from 130 to 102 hope it hold it last support at weekly up-trend at 95
Hi, For Range Detector, can you please suggest what settings (minimum range, range width ,atr length) we should use for 15 min and 1 hr time frame?
hello, you will need to test this yourself and find a sweet spot (unless someone else uses it)
yes, I use 20,2,500 now, and changed settings but not getting expecting results.
Hiiii
Micky uses smart trail to see when to enter or exit trades
Could exit when it flips ?
Just a suggestion
Caca I do have a question tho about oscillator matrix
Hmmmm
According to a basic Smart Trail switch entries, over a deep backtest of over 7,000 trades, looks pretty good so far on NQ 5m.
Now with this backtest, we need to optimize it.
But its a good place to start, with the Smart Trail switches

This is how I use the LuxAlgo Backtesting Systems.
To backtest the core feature of my strat.
So if I use the Smart Trail as my main condition on my template, and just backtest blindly those entries, and it gives me this preformance graph? then HERE WE GO!!!!!!!!!!!

And drum roll please....
My Neo Cloud switches
for dollar index
for my fx trades
Yup, very basic backtesting settings.
Now I take this info, to give me confidence to manually trade my NEO CLOUD to the MOON
🌛
Now about oscillator matrix
It shows red lines for divergence is that the smt in price? (Smt is Ict version of divergence between correlated pairs)
I appreciate you sharing the backtest results I was wondering about that
The Osc Matrix divergence line, is referring to the Matrix hyperwave divergences
Ahhhhh okay that makes sense
Mickey can you help me.
There are two main indices in India: Nifty and Bank Nifty. I have backtested Lux Algo, but it is not working as expected. What can be done in this case? There are other indices like Midcap and Fin Index where it works perfectly.

someone say horizontal line?
slowly becoming my favorite most profitable strat
yup
idk why but it makes the most sense to me its simple and it still allows me to be flexible on my entries depending on my bias.
420
whats this?
youtube subscribers
ahhhh
just us fam here, no one else
oh I know it was just funny haha number
your making fun or me with my low numbers
LOL
naw, not my thing
👎🏻
not a public channel, just for our live stream recordings for members
Yeah we need to get more of these members subscribed
you could find a gem or two on that channel
what do they say, i can lead a horse to the water?
not sure
but you cant make it drink
thats it
you're back together with your ex?
are we gonna chop until wed
there are litrally no news until cpi
volume is pretty much dead during london
only asia was good
didnt trade that
Could be a slow climb to price in the expected drop to 2.6%?
Let get this week started with a handful of news coming out soon
nothing burger news
ehh, any news is still something to watch the charts for me.
If its important to release, then it's important for me to watch
if that was the case for me i will not be sleeping lol
drink coffee
LOL
I'm only in GC
gc atleast got something
Yea, it looks to be heading up to range high again
ye i got the buy early on in the morning
Same trade!
Lets see if 17 gets tagged this week
on cpi day highly likely
if we tag it before cpi idk what will we do on cpi..go 16k?
it is pretty much full on bear market if we break 17k
the monthly sees 17k as a strong level with that massive wick
we could be retesting it and going up
I agree, any bounce might be a good short setup
Mickys streaming LIVE right now! https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1178430832151638077

yeah she loves me
18938 and nuke again?
that's 300 points away calm down 😂
Also POC
So we break 5480 on mes or what?
back to 18465?
pullback for buys
Shorts inbound
vwap here on NQ
“ We’re going down down baby .. “
🎶
Trendline broken too
I was done ✅ earlier but would’ve loved this waterfall 😏
london lows taken out
ugly break
vwap here at 590
do we run up to the highs?
Any ideas if crude can break below this daily OB?
Good question. I have this marked at support too. We shall find out
Looking more interesting again
nearly covered the dump
Getting ready to take ES short with tight swing stop
That will be nice to bounce back from the OB.
I'm interested at 5505
apple event starting now i think
so why is this up ?
Perfect results from lux today.
12 sensitivity ✅💰💰💰💰💰
In short now for ES swing
are there new updates for Price Action COncepts
not yet, you will be notified when new updates are in. #🔊patch-notes
curious if they changed anything to their vision pro
played with it 2 months ago and it's amazing
iphone 16 is the same with iphone 15 and 14 and 13 - convince me it's not
NQ not impressed
i all in short from the top
that shit had to fall
gotta admit i was in drawdown for a while
but i refused to close on a loss after this bs
I didnt even know about this aapl event until you mentioned it
so pissed tbh
I thought it was a no news day and they gotta find some event to move price on
iphone 16 got me lets see what the pro brings to the table
what did they add
good entry you had there @supple lava
NQ looks dumpy
perfect scam nq
they only dumped it after aapl event
if only I knew about that earlier
but oh well atleast i got the sell from the top
Nothing on crude today, just sat there and fell asleep
Sitting on my hands with it. Probably by Wednesday there will be a move. 👀
signals on point 🤝
Yeah, this overlapped level is solid cement support
Looking good here
Done for the day …. ✅🥇💰✅🥇💰✅🥇💰
Yes
what else you looking at?
ECHF. 👀
Can’t seem to find good settings with signals and overlays any suggestions??
What timeframe and what type of trading?
Any specific asset?
Yeah, it’s ranging, so when that happens and in consolidation it’s best to mark high and low and just trade the range.
This is how my day looked like. I don’t use filters and 5min. The signals where pretty good with just optimal setting
Hard to not over trade in range, so just stick to a setting and some tight rules
No worries brother, happy trading. Hope you find a nice setup, but keep an eye out on higher timeframes so you don’t get trapped in your scalps
Yeah looks like a consolidation day.
If i want to use a Broker on TV do i need to pay for live Data feed as well and what is the best Broker to use out off AUST Thanks
Does NQ looks long?
GV Roop
Very good morning 🌞🌄
I think some propfirms give you data however it's still delayed. you will need to research on it
Thanks
needs a pullback for longs
If you want to use TV. Then you need to have to pay to get live data fees. It's cheaper to get data on TV
vwap is 80 points below and we're right at the daily highs now
I am not very sure with NQ, it always go up and down. Kind of difficult to judge, lol 😆
Thanks will look into it
Nice, Atr is declining, coming out of long ?
its just feeling weaker up here by previous highs
200????
Yes, 100 % 👍
Are you still in long ?
beautiful trade
appreciate it dude ❤️
i took my 40 ticks x5 so that makes it 200 just like you
good shit
Wow, good
41 ticks to cover the fees actually
it took my everything to hold for the full 200 LMAO
I always, see, NQ and gold gives nice moves from London session
9:30-10:30 is usually a mess lmao
overnight highs taken
Asia session moves like termite, lol 😆
did 140 points dump during asia not bad
it broke it, we are BULLISH if it holds
But it is not always, again Asia session not trust worthy
volatility is back in the market, summer holidays over
not for me i'll age by 10 years waiting for the TP
Agreed, I was about to long, lol... Then price started to dump. I saved my ass.
It's spring here.
calendar months not your country's season 😂
becareful at 8 am gmt+0 thats when US premarket starts
you can see when premarket opened it flushed all way down during london
London open is US premarket open ?
Lol, 👍
@agile jasper you missed this gem in the stream yesterday
what time do you use in your chart?
What happened??
I seen it after haha love it
I am in Australia, UTC +10
London open is 6 pm for me ?
ok so just add 10 hours to 8 am so thats like 4 pm ?
So basically, I wait for the first hour
yeah never trade nq before that time
they are usually fake moves
premarket=stocks start opening and alot more volume gets introduced
you dont wanna get stuck with low volume
ofc ther are times nq moves alot in london open
but those are rare
still to compare stock volume in premarket is like 10x less than NY volume thats just how insanely volatile nyse open is
are you doing forex?
add the lux algo sessions indicator to your chart and be sure to input your utc time
not me I am old school just gonna use volume and price action
footprint too much information..it is fine if you dont take many trades in a day
for me who scalps alot thats a huge brain drain
Ya right no impact news no trade
Short on NQ ?
Hmmm, does any of you check OI for NQ ?
we took out yday highs atm
I can see perfect short on 5 mins
we can potentially keep going up still if the breakout is real
This one really hit u deep HAHA
i see many dojis atm but no rejection
in footprint charts - Delta is green - so we should see buying green candle, however rt now we see more red candles
this kind of information - can tell you the weaknening of momentum
or you can say passive limit selling is happening right now, big boys are filling their passive sell orders
yeah waiting for nyse open to have confirmation
I never take trades before that you might get trolled really hard
CL1! Long here
natural gas longs are back in play for the winter
lol, i am used to get trolled, lol. people who dont understand it, they cal me scammer
Added one to short swing here on ES but nearing stop out

forward curve for winter idk
ohhh
I like the term "forward curve."
Sounds like im in college
Yes prefessor...
forward curve the equation integral
with cosine derivative alpha decay
Tbh indicators and markets prolly used every single scientific thing I learned in uni that i never got to use at my job 
But your right on a lower 4H, looks like it wants a bullish run
true
LOL
You think NQ might go bear with Stock open?
for NG it usually does well in october
we are getting there
August and October hedging then a selloff in december jan feb
Looks like Aug was the bullish month, vs oct
right?
9 straights years of bull
yup
Aug and April are the bull months, looks like it
ST Deviation prefer april but august sep october all seem to do well with december through feb is bearish
do you have a heat map for the hogs? curious
where is this heat map link? @sturdy wharf
TV
its the seasonality indicator
cool
hogs love april and hate aug
thats why you wait for nyse open 
August births aprils slaughters
poor pigs

I think there is a speak at this time

can easily reverse if he starts talking some bearish shit
better wait 30 min or something to get a clear picture
nice drop
full circus
nvda dumped
Wow, looks like I might be wrong on CL1
Kind of thought it had bottomed.
Printed a really nice inverted hammer on the last 4h on support.
Not bad could have reloaded there

they call me Lucky McGee. 
I set and forget (works with mental) come back to this.
you lucky sob
wow wait crude is at 66 wtf
Exactly
Skill. All skill
Today has been hard….. really hard. Banked over 700$ and I m lucky and fine with it ✅💰🥇
CL dumping big time
Who's playing NQ today?
@nocturne sigil the horizontal line is working wonders. lots of small losses for the big wins.
Yuppers my friend
shhhhhhhhh
big pump NQ
Got that long but closed early
Got like 25 points 
Not being greedy with how the market veing acting
those dumps show no mercy if you catch a bad long
Looks like the hardest part today has been the opening. Collected around 1200$ and probably calling the day off
Dam, easy for you now
whenever you want

Yeah being green everyday ….. good habit 👍
Lux Algo and @nocturne sigil ✅
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Not joking 😉
today is hard since it is sideways and extremely onesided until it flips
there is like no pullbacks in betweens
Crazy how 5m NQ respected that OB for the reject to go back up
right?
or coincidence?
yeah the V is too clean
scam nq as usual you have to only go for reversal from the bottom and top of the range
otherwise you get chopped to death
V reversals should be rare but nq make them common
we going 19k you think?
LOL
Dam NQ
17?
yes
🤔
wow we mooning
if we dont dump then 19k for sure
victory
Hi
hello there
what are you guys using for sensitivity in the 5,15m frame? is my first time using the signals and overlays
I personally use default 12
so I can use 12 in the 5 and the 15m?
I use 12 on the 3 minutes, but also works on 5 minutes. i'd backtest and see the results however
got it, thanks

I just want to know the new nickname
Shorting apple from an iPad feels weird
cpi
Added to short yet again lol
Gonna keep doing it until it stops me out or changes signal
Working thus far lol
I just keep selling the top and taking half profits after a move down
I’m up no matter what this short swing does now lol
I’m long NQ from 18.4.
I’ll see what it does in the next few hours. Would prefer more of a safety margin pre CPI. So may close it before.
is the red box below the green box a stop loss or should not be considered as stop loss?
that is a fair value gap, it's up to you how you interpret that.
in some scenarios price will go to fill that gap
i think its the debate
im watching the debate it dumped after no big statement
maybe the dog and cat eating thing from trump LMAO
Nakagawa stated that the BOJ will review plans to reduce JGB (bond) purchases during monthly meetings.
Backflipping a bit in prior hawkishness. YEN up and DXY down.
But markets are probably also not enjoying the debate. ABC has been biased but Harris is outperforming per live election odds.
Trump viewed to be more likely to continue MMP (tax cuts etc) which may be good for the markets.
NQ still looks ok to me.
10.5hrs until CPI 😅
I love NQ
welcome aboard 👋🏻
What do you love most about it?
The way she moves 😉
Good action
How serious is this NQ dip. Trendline test?
Kind of looks like healthy pullback
He likes rollercoasters
🦗
I’m still short swing until signal changes for me
that was a good pump
idk if I wanna hold through CPI lol
i wouldn't
maybe I should have scaled micros today lol
they found out she was wearing wireless earbuds earrings during the debate.
it is spreading on twitter atm
not a good idea. I had a long but i closed it a while ago
closed mine
Got a small long at 18774, but closed it way earlier. small wins are also wins. still learning anyway
becareful
@sturdy wharf can tell u all about my knife catching addiction..
bet wanna see me do it again? 
No I learned my lesson on trading news candles last time haha.
Thanks for the attention note.
yeah they will prolly get people sl first on both directions before going the right direction
17?
let’s sell on NQ for news
idk man.people might fomo pump this if cpi is good
@nocturne sigil poll ? 
what for?
we have polls in here https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1250158944760889415
A poll whether to long or short the view
yup
A poll to see if we need a poll?
10 minutes til impact
jesus
thankfull I did not hold my long
told u guys hope u had it with me xD
becareful with your sell
if you in profit just close
we did get lower cpi 2.5% than forcast which is 2.6
previous was 2.9
but they will prolly wait for nyse open before they pump this
atm it is still a sell
it will be pumped for sure
just not yet
unless they are feeling bearish about next week
18811 is my long short point
lots of sellers at 18805
the only thing i got problem with is that core cpi stayed flat at 3.2%
people might view that as bearish
will see if powell cut rates tho
man that was a nice short into that pullback
but i didnt take it
wanna stay safe
760 gotta hold if we want to push higher
well gold dumped hard
it is too early.nothing will happen now until nyse open
Nothing to see here, back to normal, the usual chop
wait for bell
They going for shorts sl 
new highs
Cmon man no open yet qwq
what? lol
I wanted too, but id rather take my 1250$ and go back to bed 
Setup gone now
idk if we bounce if it falls on open
Will prolly go for 19k at rhis rate like i said yday
People are so impatient
aint gonna fomo missed setup
Guess i will go to bed as well
lmao
@agile jasper caca you coming with us or no
erm no
but you guys enjoy 
My NQ 1HR setup.
ok i can join you guys. who's 3rd wheeling?
all of us
and me over here.. still short and still adding on lol
love my new swing strat just chillin
Closed out one of my ES shorts yet again lol
still some short
gonna keep rinsining and repeating until it changes
what
I only got one short and one buy
its wickdiculous!!

this is getting ugly
wtf is this freefall lmao
I need a pullback
But hedgies might not give us one
greedy bitches
Well guess i am done for today
unless this smh does a v again
then i will look at it again
i will exit my short swing entirely at ES 5400
and wait for pull back and/or new signal
Jesus... just watching all these fall is crazy
Holy tank city batman
stairs to the top, elevator down
This 1hr candle is insanely bearish
i wish i held my trades but i can't be greedy
too overextended for me now
This elevator is the like the tower of terror ride though lol
Im only paper trading at the moment until I get the hang of this... made some quick shorts and called it a morning
Got short 5min after open and took almost 18pts; currently wishing i’d have stayed in a little longer 😂 damn 60pt dump in an hour
