WELL guess i m moving on gold
we did ATH now what?
crypto is mooning
good thing i am diversified so idc if i cant trade chop
gonna prolly take an early vacation from the market and comeback in new year
Powell time
NFP in approx 15 mins
it was not NFP
nfp is always on friday
👀
Who is gonna trade Nasdaq today???
every day any day
It’s like to move in the Amazon without a map up here
Looking this bearish candle on 1 minute right now ….. how you could predict that???
you dont need to predict anything
no supply no shorting
101 trading
picking random tops will only make you angry
i said this many times in this discord but there are people who just dont listen
price is obviously bullish
that was a speaker
we testing previous ATH or filling the gap?
Locked?
What did you get today?
$8,568.00 ?
nearly that 😂
should be a smooth ride to the downside to close the gap
bounced off the vwap again
oh well, let the chop continue. vwap and 400's are holding the market up

ES making new lows.
are you starting to use VWAP?
yes... great support resistence and working super combined with ob fvg and so.... a choch after rejecting vwap. wonderful tool. i knew was risky trades. because the vwap. at least i was aware
very nice price action! 🙂
Gold looks ready to send it
Hey guys
What indicators do yall use for XAUUSD and strategy ?
Because mine has not been optimal for the past two weeks
Mickys streaming LIVE right now! https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1178430832151638077

XAUDUSD is forex, speak with the people over there #💱forex-chat
my largest single trade.
3k
phuw, out
What’s everyone’s thoughts on NQ? I think we just continue doing HL HH until strong high shows up. Hard to say when that will happen but maybe end of year tax and retirement sales?
not interested in anything to be fair, i just trade what the chart is presenting to me on the day/trading session
if it goes to 25k, i'll take trades all the way to 25k
down to 17k, i'll take trades all the way to 17k
I can't hold overnight and i will not hold longterm anyway, i just want a slice of cake
Ended red today for me. 800$ and I m fine with it. Tried a couple short at opening (risky ones moved by desperation to find any kind of set up) but VWAP did good as support . Had actually a A+ set up going long did cover a couple of hundred dollars there then price moved in uncharted territory so I did exit . Then I stopped . From tomorrow gotta trade what my set ups tell me to trade. No more trades (just to trade something). If I get some set ups fine with that. If not I ll be doing something else
oh the good old desperation to be in a trade 😂
-$800 nothing for your calibre, easy recovery tomorrow
Yeah I still got this problem. …. If I would stick to my set up I would be by far but I mean by really far more profitable .
depends on the colour of the tie
Finally some moves on NQ
NY's vwap here at 453
Not a bad day
bounced off daily vwap at 445
which indicator you use to get the vwap in TradingView
there are many..would like to know the one best for this
i do it myself, I use anchored vwap and anchor it to the candle I want.
luxalgo sessions has vwap builtin if you want https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/Sessions/?id=bkb6vZDz
Sessions
Thanks @agile jasper
Yup that was the close!
Pre power hour ✊🏼
we cracked 500's, you still short?
really appreciate your words. thanks 🙏
obs. thanks for vwap too.... i use daily vwap (the one starting Asian session).... it is really good
what sessions has vwap too???
i use it every day and didnt know that
4th box there!
Just ike NQ, ES making a power move higher
how many oscillators do you use?
lol i was wondering that too
missed a a+ set up.... nevermind. time to trade tomorrow
It’s delta volume, obv, osc, and z-score. I use it on a 1 min
@nocturne sigil is there a video clip that can guide one on how to use/setup the new luxalgo AI?

Good morning 🌞
we got numbers in 18 minutes
what numbers?
some unemployment claims
mNQ
So I used a 15m candle new release range
Dropped down to 1m to enter long to target 15 new candle high, with 15m OB and 15m inverser FVG as support. Not sure what I did, but got my 35 ticks TP

#truestory

"not sure what I did" 😂
yup, Im being honest here
LOL
sounds good, right?
pretty much my strategy for the last 20 years...😂
Look how these PAC suppoert levels holding up (for now)
Your chart looks great. Can I see the settings for your chart?😲
ES did a new high, NQ is lagging
send it down NQ
Mickys streaming LIVE right now! https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1178430832151638077

ES pumping
Check GC
I mean, you can clearly see that they are doing lows then fib extensions constantly
Easy trades
Took one
It’s like consolidation and endless expansion
you're still dreaming
NQ
i am still long but might close it at BE and maybe look for another entry
Consolidation can be messy
Haha exactly
ES starting to wake up
great long if you took it and held it all the way up 
Yup. I love my 3mins swing on futures.
Safe play 4 places to take a long and trades on 1min to play the range if you think NQ is going up to range high
And now the final extension
This NQ chop feels like BTC before it broke to 100k
quite a big rejection off the lows there
Yup, Dec is always tough
Perfect turn on wvwap 1min
It’s ok, 340 ticks
Just grab the top and bottom
I think owe move slowly down to 21222
ATH's here
Dang
Who sold lol
Haha awesome
sold all my crypto half a year ago so unfortunately i wasn't a seller last night 😂😂
If the market cap on btc is 2T then that was two hundred billion dollar drop?
That sounds like poor promotion for LuxAlgo's algorithms 😉
Let me know when you find one that’s 100% win
how does one relate to the other one? 😂
To me, algorithms have to help make right decisions. Especially those, which are "All features from Premium, plus: ✨ NEW AI...".
Even in this screenshot, you can clearly see the consolidation phase, so you don't have to sell your Bitcoins. Or you could buy everywhere many times before the run. Otherwise, there's no need to buy algorithms - just rely on own bias.

Looks like GC woke up
Someone is aggressively buying at least
I’m hitching a ride up
Took a short on Nq as well
what made you take those trades?
Todays news
As far as i heard about them, they have already built their own blockchain...so they could protect your data in the most secure way, just how Bitcoin does
Make sure you do all your research and be careful of new sites ⚠️
Nice short.
Removed, sorry about the scammer/spammer
Can someone please tell me what this blue "x" means?
Just started using luxalgo recently... I have a guess but i'd rather someone who knows... be kind enough to tell me 🙂
thank you

Morning!
Glad your enjoying LuxAlgo! thats great to hear 
Guessing this is fake
NFP 
Yup, fake, not me
LOLLLLL
You are special

Anyone smell a significant retracement soon?
Who's playing the 15m news candle?
Are expecting it to go down
Got my 101 ticks
Taking out the 15m "news" candle high
Felt heat, but it was quick, 1m and 15 OB's/FVG held as support
1m hanging around the 15n "news" candle high
Interesting
Maybe we take out the news candle low?
that would be a 360 tick move to the downside
Dang, just took out a 15m OB which is ATH
So quiet here?
🦗
Waiting for it.. haha
21600's before the news
what goes up must come down 
what a rally
above the reversal zone on the 15m
not today
here we go 21600
run away train now
close your eyes and buy
meant to be big impact news right?
maybe below 21700? 🤣
did you say 17?
Id like to see some short set-ups like these
who knows
well the shorts may be scared for now, may need some catalyst.. next week monthly economic reports could do it..
He's on a beach somewhere
I love lux been saving for blackfriday yearly subscription while learning on the chats n YouTube for stategies
I think
No trades for me so far.
Thats awesome, worth the wait?
Very little volume
happy friyay
Happy Friday Micky!

Yes it worth it

good move man
follow the strategy is pure gold
in short now 🙂 power to the algo
same here
also got a payout today ... luxalgo really helped me this week 🙂 you guys are sexy !
well done!
love it
Anybody have any good settings for the signals and overlays for scalping TSLA?
lovveee the lookon NQ at the moment
100%
ES is bleeding, NQ needs to go below 600s
I think NQ will send it
i'm watching
I'm really surpised it is struggling
wicks on both sides
it's the ATH
i want it to dip below 600's for a reload maybe
ES is looking primed for a dip
here's my dip
Really love this setup and want to go long, but it's struggling
nice H&S on 1min
I'm in again
here's the pump
we will send it
Just took some time.
Not sure what was happening
I need a trade today
It's been very small and watching
When will PLTR finally break? Time for a dump id say
stuck here atthe 20's
I'm just going to leave my trade there and go to lunch. Dont f it up
will keep an eye on it for you 😂
guys it is friday in dec you are expecting too much out of the market 
it is good there is even liquidity
you go first
hahahaha
hell no
im not gonna ruined my one trade today
ha
even though I want to
how many ticks?
dont think we'll see 21700 😢
17k is even further away

Oh yeah, here we go!!!!!!
my other PA closed on the little drop earlier... not so confident on this one haha

move Sl to +2
out of the woods
54 ticks short
oh boy
Nice rejection off of this support level
I still like to see that 15m news candle low, buts thats a ways down
🦗
Some trade both
I dont have key to lock myself out
🔐

Looking 👍
Nice, same here, done for the weekend 
Have a great weekend!
Thanks man, It worked
nadaraya watson envelope plz tell me best setting for scalping
Because you CAN 
done 4h ago but good luck!
Haha
I was really trying today...
Not much to work with :/
just in an out trades
Have a good weekend!
So close to go positive, but missed the open on other activities. first minus day in a while
and now they send it haha
been sitting here for 8 hours looking at it
that's not a big dent at all
how did you end up, you tried to sell all day?
or bad entries?
Yes easy recovery next week. I ended looking for a lot of longs but then it never moved so I had to close with either BE or a small win / loss. Assuming commission ate my profit so yea, then it’s that type of a day when it does not move, the trades where good, just no volume as I missed the 9:30 and started my day at like 10. Total PNL for week after commission $3283 not a bad week, not the best.

Took a look at oil. Imo likely to break down next week I would target the 60 area
the 66 level been acting as a support for a few months now
Exactly. Big if area. I can also see if it really holds 82 is the target. Either way interesting spot to look for confirmations
I like the price action and may look to trade it next week once any daily confirms.
How’s everyone doing tonight
Doing good bro trading gold
Looking to short but trying to be careful
I am thinking the same- gold is tho bit tricky on the short side.. it just likes to go up n up..
Right! Im trading 3 accounts looking to be in and out up 8k
Nice.
What timeframe do you use? I am mostly at 30mins with futures.
I ve seen many times 5min candles can do the range of 30min candles during high volatility so decided to stick to 30min instead. At least this is giving me better feeling of the trend.
GC ==> that was a decent 30min order block bounce on a bearish trend!!
yellow zone ctitical to break or bounce between the dip and tip of the FVGs .
@agile jasper lol
Im glad, my XFA gone reduced to atoms
go to sleep in peace, i had issues before and they made it right
Thanks bro I appreciate it.
also why can't you wait for NY to open and you have to trade now 😂
Opening Gap on Gold.
just seen nice gap close and back up
Wasnt able to trade it because account blew up I shorted at 2661 pre gap close and then the data disconnected.
Look who’s here
had to drag him here
I’ll be making my return to Lux eventually
I need to try that AI backtesting
gold keeps amazing me with its bullish force.. lets see how it will break that big 4h&30m chunk ahead of it or will it be another bounce back?
.
i think the pump relates to Syria news
GC likes financial unceartanities, CL likes wars. These are really two tricky futures to trade.
agree to that
I’m looking for non tricky tickers
NG suprised me today but seems like most opened with gap up - except the oil.
it had nice volume for a sunday
only NQ for me. ocasionally GC but we're not good friends really 😂
i am waiting for a strong bounce back or go up signal for CL. 67.60 is the critical previous 4hr "dip/low"level and 1 hr left to close 4hr candle.
5min chart
Kind of looks like oil is breaking out
overall trend too bearish for CL. it could act bull for now but too risky
Exactly. I think you need a retest to take a long, but sure interesting area
i see CL going to 66 before doing anything else
CL is for sure shorting in the longer time frames and yea 66 is the next test. That 4hr order block is a big brick. Probably it will try to break it with few burst candels unless another war pops up.
in bearish trend i usually scalp bull only when it breaks out previous 4hr candles tip.. i put 67.6 there to monitor for scalping. tho lifetime of the 4hr candle is also important as that level will be reset. 18 mins to close.
it didnt like 67.6 tho so far..
so no bull scalping
next importart level is 66.98. That is the previous day low level. it has plenty time to reset.
It didn’t fill but was the right trade
higher low and above the price/vol accumulation level - good trade. Careful with Gap n Gos tho. not every gap fills same day
oh thats not a gap.. your order didnt fill - just noticed
these are my scalps.. sundays quite slow.
2 identical size 4 hr candles with the wigs back to back.. set my alarms for touch points..
and the bottom dark purple is the previous day low level.
66.98 is both prev day and prev week's low level. if it breaks that one, probably we will head down to 66.
major levlels for the gold for the next 3hrs 20mins
thats for the gold scalp strategy. once you identify the key levels it then becomes a matter of deciding the entries. My recommendation - do not enter a signal when signal is pointing you towards the key level - enter only if you have room to the next key level. Keep the stop losses. of course nothing goes without loss. key levels are usually matching with order block boundaries. And keep updating 4hr low highh on your chart every 4 hrs.
and boom just cover and call it a day .. i picked 30min fvg center for my scalp cover..
silver one loss, 2 wins toward the key levels again - losses are part of the game no matter what.
HG short to the prev day low single contract scalp
SI longing with alert
pl longing with alert again. these will be my last ones before heading to bed
20mins left for 4hr candle reset- so keeping eye on.
and closed both. didntwant to take risk as it is close to end of 4hr candle..
PL was the 4hr OB breakout on 5min chart, SI was 30min OB breakout on a 5MIN chart.
3mins left to reset 4hr candle,so it seems this will be our new threshold line for the next 4hrs. this goes on and on like that. Anyone interested in more detail, dm me, i iwll help. good night all
CL - big 5min sell candle triggered with alert.
Tho risky right on top of 30min OB.

Copper heading to prev week high. Possible bounce back level
Hey - i replied to you here: #🤝support message
i went to sleep, i woke up and i'm about to go for round 2 and you're still here 😂😂
something happened they all popped, including indices
It may bounce now
back to sleep round 2
I made boatload today! Don’t know how my luck turned back after an awful week!
Yea 11:47am my sleep time😂 good night now!
Sorry pm
hmm someone activated the sell program
Done n out
Killed gold
i think we have a chance to see 2700 today
I think so too
They just ran into a low volume up here.
I think it will head back to 2664 first then up
took a quick scalp
straight back up from the lows
What a lovely day.
- Start new eval
- Took 4h before I got my credentials
- NT connection yellow, try to troubleshoot for the last 2h -- DNS flush, firewall, re-install, reset everything.
- Topstep Discord support not responding, Support not responding, website slow and even crashing.
I'm going back to Solana Flip-A-Coin website for my trading if it keeps going like this today..
Maybe I should've gotten a TopstepX like @agile jasper been chilling at. NT has been a pain in the *ss lately..
topstepX > NT
Good day to you ser. Could you please check this box for no apparent reason. Thanks
🤷🏻♂️
There are a lot of connection issues at Topstep I see. So luckily it's not just me.
I'm gonna flip my solana coins
TrAdOr.. 
DegenFlip.
Anyway have fun trading guys! Gonna log off i guess. Topstep/NT is causing mental strains today.
Now?
minor number just dropped
Whats PAC settings used in this chart?
you can find his setups in #1199356285813006367
short squeeze incoming?
maybe
we struggled at this level on friday remember?
ES making new lows
just need a big flush on NQ
610 is on my radar
here it is
now we just need to put in new lows
close below 600s now then new lows
ES new lows again
new low of the day even
yea, 21526
I should have waited for confirmations and I did not, broke some of mu rules
needs to accelerate more
what a ripper candle jesus
NQ is hitting a supply zone here.
Let's see if there's interest.
I do think we send it back again
it's too heavy not sure if it'll go back consistently
It's funny because I analyzed today perfect and then executed it in the worst possible way
topstep accounts are sitting nice in green. MFFU accounts are in red but still a win
450s done
I was looking at it pre market and was clearly seeing signs of a pullback. Then it held, I thought.. I also saw imbalance in the market down to 21436 which is now exactly playing out
It will stop here imo
nah it will still go down
big bounce however
It will come back to 21570 for a test.
reckon?
Im getting my damn XFA partially reset.
😦
should be all
you guys having fun?
6:34:54 is still inside the window of 6:35:00
always
Yes, however its only "realized" losses my loss wasnt realized until data was restored at 6:39 on the DOT lmao
i scalped 20 points long in nq like an hour ago and called it a day
taking easy this month
I'm not having fun. I did all this work pre market and over the weekend then did not follow it
still good you're being reset
you'll come back stronger
this is the biggest pullback we've seen all day
always.. I can take the loss, but just mad at myself today.. I was not disciplined.
took another few points long and i now locked myself out so i dont do anything stupid
market was very choppy today
we only had some moves like last hour
this when it started doing good action
it was obvious short when we broke the range and retested
yup
are you back in 2025?
Maybe
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
For a second, I had the Hammer ready
🔨
hahaha no show mercy please I need it 🙏

SI is my fav from yesterday
Just that part.. extremly tiny piece😭
That was a 5k + or more run there
crazy
Hello everyone, I know I might sound a little repetitive and of course that's what everyone wants to find, but I've been looking for a good scalping strategy on NQ1 over the last few weeks, and couldn't find much.. anyone have something to share? Saw on #📌pinned-strats-indicators and #1128499789437354106 but everything seem a bit confusing to me
Hey there, maybe I could suggest something that you created for yourself.
I think if you were to start creating a strategy for yourself, it would be less confusing as you would understand the reasons why you would be using some of the toolkits features.....try to create something simple first, then you can slowly add to the chart to filter out some....just an idea
Thank you for the suggestion Micky, I'll try to do it..
I have a few live streams where I just create a simple template with candle colors or just one overlay, and that's it.
#1199356285813006367
ohh nice i am going to check those out too... thank you
Hi everyone, I am planning to trade in e mini s&p 500 options , basically CME exchange options, any one who is trading in CME ES! Options. How is the liquidity there ?
SI is working great for me since yesterday
PL is shorting great as well. I sent that sell signal early morning today
Luxalgo 🙏
Seriously money printer! Of course here and there some small losses but overall perf is crazy.
It changed my biased trading behavior. Just trading the trend if makes sense.
Like this signal for instance/ just not taking if I see a brick on it or under it longing and shorting. Just taking the ones I see wide open ahead.
Smart trail was the stopper there and was too close to the signal. Big risk to take.
here goes NQ visiting the lows again
yup, trade management
✅
İf I see buy signal with smart trail flips to blue, I am entering.
Order block , prev 4hr, and prev day low value underneath good bounce point. Let’s see.
🤞🏻
Are there any more sellers out there for power hour?
enter and let me know
LOL
Some help please?
whatsup
Need some help for scalping I am new with this indicators I saw a lots videos but I can understand in scalping

Of If I ask question is because I would like some help already saw all that
That is why I am asking for help.
Why is so complicated some help from here
We understand what you are needing, but Trading is a learning process we study we read we learn the concepts that we find in many resources such as the Internet, YouTube, etc. our tool kits help us in trading these concepts that we learn
Try to learn as much as you can with the techniques and teachings that you have found, and then using the tool kits, you can optimize them according to your trading style by enabling certain features that will help you trade the concepts and techniques that fit with your style
There is simply not one document or one video that can teach you everything
It is a journey
Again other plataforms or indicators help us at least to have an idea how to start. Looks like here when I ask question for something is wrong.
Also I know is a journey and also I read books and do my own trades but because I am not profitable I bought this . But it was anmistake
Have you attended any of my live streams here in the community? Or watched any of the recordings?
They may help you to get started
@remote jackal
All recording are 1 plus year ago maybe a little refresh for new people should be good
My daily live streams are up-to-date
I hold these streams every day Monday through Friday and I post every single stream a few hours after it has ended
Well I am not here to argue I would like some little help like “ do start doing this now” because I can’t understand to much. But like I said everything that I ask is wrong and people are mad.
I went to two livestream and when I asked question only told was already said watch videos.
I am not talking about livestreams talking about indicators premium at least a new update videos.
The videos on the YouTube channel are relevant to the core functionality of each premium toolkit. Throughout the months, there have been and will be update releases. These updates are notated in the docs.
NQ after market opens if I see buy signal , I will smash the button
CPI + PPI this week
Looking nice 
Ok thanks for the help
Pls be patient. These tools are crazy helpful and you will learn quick if you go try the discord channel and see how others using those. Plenty helpful guidance and training. All of us went tru the same process.
I was a guy chasing MACDs rsi all day all night losing money until I got that one. Just be patient and read tru discord channels. Everything in there.
Nice what times usually?
Sometimes a little bit before or after New York opening bell
Thanks I will look at some of these videos.
Cool, let us know if you have any questions

Still waiting the buy signal target line above😒
This will be juicy of you can get this 
I picked SI as it had more momentum at the moment. Easy target!!
NQ is damn sleeping!!😭
Boom
💥
CL was another perfect setup with alert. it had no obstacles ahead just hit to the bottom of prev 4hr candle dip... Easy short!
Pl almost hitting the target line
Again no suprise , target is previous 4hr high tip- it is testing.
Pushing the prev day tip as well🔥
You are on 
🫵🏻
@steel sandal Dont you ever take some rest?
LOLLL
HAHAHAHAHA
😂
Gold rush?
watch out USDT.D
That worked 😂
Todays news
Anyone trading cocoa here?
How are the signals saying B and S, those are not the s&o signals right?
Kind of looks like Nq setting up for a short
ugh idk what to say about this
also this https://news.sky.com/story/google-unveils-astonishing-quantum-computing-chip-called-willow-13270750
Does anyone in here use Apex and know how the the 6th payout works? It is total payouts across all accounts or does it have to be 6 payouts from one single account?
topstep user here 👋
Just passed my 150k account today on Topstep 🙂 So will be using them as well going forward!
How do you find it?
top dogs in the industry
It is 50% commission right when you move from Combine to Funded ?
after 5 days trading?
you can withdraw 50% of your total balance every 5 days of $200+
nice thanks
Apex have been ok for me tbh... I have had 5 payouts from them so far. Only minor issues
But everyone I speak to keeps telling me to go to Topstep!
Rule 6.9A-C879R.1
What is this?
Not sure myself, from other TS groups, they were chatting about this new rule, wanted to see if anyone here knows about this?
oh ok! Clearly not me lol
Same here
Just give me my money!
What is that?
It's probably the new live funded rule where once your express funded account gets moved up to a live funded account you are no longer able to trade express funded account anymore. I believe if you have multiple express funded accounts at the time they may merge them all into 1 live funded account
so if you pass a combine you wont be able to upgrade it to an express account as long as you have a live account
I'm assuming that is the new rule they are talking about considering its the only real big change they have made lately
Well this is not good then.
No benefit in going live then? I dont think?
They will work with you on scaling the account such as raising the amount of contracts you can trade on it as you grow the account or raising your daily loss limit. But i'm personally not a big fan of it. I liked having multiple accounts to trade with more.
Might as well just trade with my personal cash account, versus their Live.
Why give away % to them?
WHo knows
I know nothing
I'm tempted to pass some combines so they are ready for express and then cash out what i can of my live account and close or blow it.
the rule change kind of changed what i had my goal set on so still trying to figure out my next steps i want to take
Once you figure out your next steps, they will change the rule

JK
Haha you never know. Things are always changing these days
Does topstep copy trade off express funded accounts considering they are still sim account?
you are damn right
happy i got out of my long 2 minutes before open
Got clean short from 580
i was long at 585 hoping for a 600 test but it failed
this is a bigger dump
vwap at 516
Done for the day
same
flush me baby !
ha
wow pumping right up
so strong
Nice recovery
M7 kicking ass
nice feature
needed to lock out one or twice on Apex haha
I wish I had a live topstep account I was in this NQ long from 21458 lol
had to close on my apex to keep in the 30% rule 😡
👀
can unlock the follower accounts only and trade them separately
but no, not doing that again
been there done that and had big swings from P&L high to daily loss limit or blown accounts
600's traded
another strange rule?
I don't think so
Mickys streaming LIVE right now! https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1178430832151638077

just 30% each day max profit based on what account size you have
although I regularly bag 2.4k on my 250k account and that is fine as you need to hit 9k for the max 3k payout anyway
easy when you can do 50% haha
so they don't want you to make money basically
I mean it should set up me up better for Topstep right? haha
since I am used to 30% caps all the time
50% is like freedom 😂
but yeah they tried their best... but I have only had 1 payout rejected out of 5 so far
and that was because of the rule change in November
Recovered 💪
someone's back strong!
I was pissed yesterday
Took the time to break and regroup and follow the plan
Traded so bad yesterday.
Over traded and closed a lot
I know it happens and I’m okey, but I’m not okey with me not executing to plan. I love taking losses at stop losses and well planned out trades. Yesterday was slush
niceee
NQ is at breakout or make it point
I think we see corrections all the way down to 21160
Maybe not today but eventually
maybe CPI and PPI will do this
True, far from over for sure
Also, gold has room to run like I mentioned last night. Safe long imo
Currently however at resistance, so I think it will take a LH on HTF
Same story?
killed it 😂
haha i might go crazy if I start doing that
It keeps your blood flowing
NQ grinding lower
400s
took me an hour to recover from that... thanks 😄
Oh my
Hahahaha
Seriously?
NQ hard 200 ticks here
good flush
Yup sure will
Yeah, we went up into range high then continued ourbdowntrend
stubborn NQ, it pumped when ES was making new lows
was expecting at least a vwap touch at the open before pumping but it was about 10 points off it
This is my play until next week basically
It happens like clockwork. Goes back and tests previous weeks poc
we'll see this this week
even today if the bleeding continues
actually not today, we have a 200 points range from top to bottom. enough for NQ
and no time left but who knows
It will, I’m done from this morning, but my guess is that we open and grabs liquidity up then continue down for until 21
about to take out 400
Worst case here for me is that we move to quickly down. I want to participate the rest of the week
I hate trading around poc it tends to get stuck in that price and we could then start ranging
I think selling has started for both losses and profit and end of the year, so it all lines up
rollover next week?
or this week
Rolling?
Ohh really
17k 😂
Haha
17th for rollover is next tuedsay, friday after close most likely TS will switch contracts.
would make sense to do that. monday is the 16th
21338 then kill the shorts 🙂
31338 you wish
Haha wops
Now lol, good catch good prediction for new contract
This was the slowest bleed I’ve seen
short party 😄
Nice trades!
Good stuff on NQ found some support so tomorrow I assume we test 21300
Should be a up and then continuation open
I like it
spent some time on the back test on a 5 min nq strategy similar to how i trade.
This one was using signals though, I don’t so it’s a bit late on entry’s in my opinion.
Todays news
TopstepX or Tradovate on Tradingview. (thoughts?)
Haven't used TopstepX yet (still haha)
What are the pros and cons vs going straight on tradingview
I prefer Tradovate on TV personally (paid for data upgrades)
But I am using Tradovate on TV for Apex and TopstepX for Topstep 😄
hey man sorry to keep bugging on topstep questions 😄 But now I have a funded account... I presume I can make as much profit as I want now each day? I am not restricted by the 50% max trade profit like there was in combine right?
never traded Forex... feel free to enlighten 😄
no thanx
on topstep? make how much you want
ahaha you are too fast... spam alert
Ah ok nice ! Thanks 🙂 Got an NQ long from near lows
want to let it run today if I can 😄
yeah he's a goner
I thought it was a genuine message 😂
if your XFA is newly created, you will be limited to $5k payout per cycle
but don't see that an issue to be fair
Yeah ok that is fine, I can live with 5k limit
as long as I can build my account
thanks!
you have 5 XFA's that's 25k max you can get payout per cycle
i still have XFA's with the legacy rule until i blow them but the new rule doesn't affect me at all
going to start with this one and take it easy as I have 4 our Apex PA's but I want to migrate to Topstep slowly
that sounds like a good deal!
Was hoping NQ would go a big higher before news... this looks meh
probably the right decision
I am in it for the bsicuit haah
wick me baby 😂
going to take some profit soon tho tbh not leaving it all on the table
hold mine for me cause I am going to be dropping popcorn everywhere in 12 mins 😂
ahahaha
entry not as clean on Topstep as I would like sadly.... got the better entry on my Apex account sadly
topstep xfa or combine?
XFA
40s
close to my 30% TP rule on apex now anyway lol
so they will be closing soon
hopefuly..
decent size pump
beautiful
maybe shoud have left a runner but oh well
I took a short here pre on NQ
clean move to the upside
I think dangerous to short here atm
You guys like trading news 
i am just chilling
If i see something on the open i will take it
I think so too
depends on the entry haha
pullback for refuel?
This is exactly my plan. I think we retrace hard
