Dont think TikTok makes a difference here,

What is TikTok?

[quick kite]

Hey all, new here as well. Looking to build out the settings on the indicator to work around a scalping strategy for NQ using only the price action concepts portion of the indicator. I really like the video Lux IQ put out with the 1h timeframe fixed OB indicator to be used in conjunction with duplicating the PAC indicator for 1-5m OB entries. If anyone has any suggestions on more precise settings to be used on NQ, I’d appreciate the guidance!

[surreal dust]

I would have taken that short

nevermind stick the to plan for tomorrow 😄

what time does US close today?

[quiet turret]

Noon

[surreal dust]

ty

[urban flint]

It would be nice if NQ quickly flushed down to PDH then up. Please and thank you lol

[quiet turret]

Your wissh might come true

[surreal dust]

oh God this move down is making me want to enter

lol

[urban flint]

I got entries there on both es and Nq.

Only concern is time. Noon is coming up quick

[surreal dust]

nice !

I can't short here anyway missed the move so need to wait for a long or another short confirmation at this level

I am up 32% on trump meme coin anyway ... so will take that 😂

what a joke that has been

thought i'd just slap on a 2x trade and see what happens lol

[quiet turret]

The inauguration starts at 11:30 AM market close at noon and open at 5PM. So good to close all the positions before market close. NY evening session shoud be interesting.

[urban flint]

Not in on melania?

[surreal dust]

no I didn't

did you?

[surreal dust]

dump to 21400 today and then we can long up tomorrow 😄

[urban flint]

Nahh, I heard trump is up 286% on that investment lol

[surreal dust]

went from 20 mil market cap to 18 billion in first 6 hours if I remember correctly 🤦‍♂️

[urban flint]

Just insane

[surreal dust]

i only got in this morning on the dip lol

[surreal dust]

meme market for you

but still insane

no matter what market

[urban flint]

Yeah, I was doing that stuff back in the day with shib and stuff, but have stopped. Got burned a few too many times

[surreal dust]

but especially meme... absolutely no ultility at all...... it is just like that banana on the wall that sold for like 50 mil or something 😂

[urban flint]

Exactly

[fair socket]

i seen that and then he ate it lol.. imagine being that rich 😂

[surreal dust]

i still trade memes.... but I focus on PEPE and Brett

[urban flint]

The key is to get in and out quick

[surreal dust]

mate.... 2026 goals.... I sell you a banana for 20 mil and then you eat it 😄

[fair socket]

[surreal dust]

hahahaah

insider trader has placed her bids 😄

[near light]

I guess I don’t understand the oscillator matrix

[fair socket]

You can read our documentation on the Oscillator Matrix here: https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/toolkits/oscillator-matrix/introduction which includes a video on the Oscillator Matrix. You can also take a look at previous streams on the Oscillator Matrix too, this channel can be accessed here: https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1199356285813006367

[urban flint]

There’s and app for that that follows her trades and copy them. Just crazy

[near light]

Yea I have watched so many videos but it seems like when I think it’s a good time to buy or sell with the matrix it’s the exact opposite

[urban flint]

Do the opposite?

[near light]

Or get a refund lol

[urban flint]

What timeframe do you trade on?

[near light]

I have tried the 1 min all the way to the 15

[urban flint]

Try to stick to 5 min and look 15min. If both say the same. Then proceed. It sounds like you are missing the bigger picture. When you zoom in you get a lot of bad signals not in the direction of the overall trend. Just a thought

[near light]

Yea that’s possible or my settings are bad on it idk i just blew an account using it but I know that’s my fault for trading this morning

[proud oracle]

On signals &overlay make sure to have ml signal classifier check is on and signals sensitivity set between 15 and 20 to reduce noise

[surreal dust]

yeah I heard about that

ah missed the vwap trade

mum come over exactly that time

😅

[near light]

This ?

[proud oracle]

This

It up top

Under basic setting

I learn it from this guy and it work for me

[glossy sonnet]

[regal star]

Has anyone heard about wepe coin ?

[urban flint]

So we short Tesla now? 🤔

[nocturne sigil]

hmmm

[tulip rose]

What is that?

[urban flint]

Not sure if charts or TA matter after that performance on national television.

[nocturne sigil]

In my opinion, TSLA's price action will be depended on overall fundamentals of the stock and the industry. Just my 2 cents

Now DOGE and crypto, thats another story with Elon and todays show

[urban flint]

Maybe, I think you’re right. Wall Street loves TSLA and it’s also in a lot of ETF’s. Not sure, will be interesting. Is interesting the right word?

[near light]

who has the best video that explains the oscillator matrix cause im so confused

[raw gate]

volatility is back.. break or make time for this term.. we dont need cpi, ppm any more 🙂

[nocturne sigil]

gonna be a GOOD year

Right?

Let the FUN begin?

[quiet turret]

What does this chart tells us? Thanks for the explanation.

[nocturne sigil]

It tells me that the markets are in a holding pattern until they see/hear something from DC

But, based on the chart alone, still bearish moves on the 4H's

[nocturne sigil]

Yeah, I dont see higher highs

(yet)

[proven mirage]

I have a question about alert-scripting. Is the following possible? I'm looking for a way to be alerted for the following condition.

1. price is below vwap
2. followed by "reversal up +" symbol - (this is the green triangle)
3. followed by "oversold HWO Up" symbol - (this is the green dot)

I didn't see an option for this in the custom alert creator.

[nocturne sigil]

There is an example script that includes the vwap, you could look at this for the idea:

lovely stuff! i aint trading today, had a crap sleep and got a headache so cba being on the charts today 😂

[surreal dust]

my bias is down today tbh

but trading the charts until we get a shift

[surreal dust]

hope you feel better later

[fair socket]

thanks man just gonna chill and binge watch some tv

prob nap in afternoon then see if i can catch anything this evening

[agile jasper]

there's always power hour

[zenith narwhal]

closed mine early

Good for the next live, how to emotion. @nocturne sigil

[surreal dust]

virtually at the points of rejection from earlier in the session so things going to get interesting soon 😄

[surreal dust]

Only apple slowing tech down this morning

6 out of 7 M7 are up premarket

[agile jasper]

NFLX earnings after the close

[surreal dust]

why does apple have to have such a fat weighting on the NQ

dam thing is slowing us down 😅

[urban flint]

Charts looking good for some upside. Let's hope stable

[agile jasper]

not sure about that but lets see what NY brings us

big recovery off last night's dump

[urban flint]

True, we are pretty extended. I can see a fallack too. But for now its ticking up on higher timeframe. should be buyers in lower at least.

[agile jasper]

last night we looked bullish until we didn't 😂

[urban flint]

50MA held last night. I think this is the outlook. That was a pretty massive recovery after downtrendline broke

I'm hoping we send it down at around open to OB then up. Either way I'm going long.

[surreal dust]

m7 is all over the place now

so i think the open is going to be volatile... still in longs but moving SL into profit

[urban flint]

I just closed my long.

Just going to wait. I agree with you. Pretty undecided

[surreal dust]

dam

you leaving me solo

😅

but yes I agree with you agreeing with me 😅

[urban flint]

Haha, my main concern is the massive resistance on 15min

[surreal dust]

ES looks like lower

NQ wants up

someone needs to give up 😄

[urban flint]

Its pretty red up there.

[surreal dust]

yup!

I am in gold long in case it breaks up

[urban flint]

But yea trail it up. If break that would be amazing.

[surreal dust]

but it historically doesn't like this area for Gold

Gold target of 2780ish if it breaks up

target of my SL if it doesn't 😂

[urban flint]

Es looking strong

The problem is NQ 🙂

Might be worth shorting ES if NQ start to move down

[surreal dust]

well apple is trying to turn up a bit

so lets see if the rest want to join the party

[urban flint]

😉

Nq close to looking good though on 5 min. just about

might be a good day for ya

[agile jasper]

CL in deep red

[surreal dust]

we will see

[urban flint]

Oh really

Drill baby

[surreal dust]

need to do the chool run today.... so going to be out for an hour :/ dam kids

[urban flint]

heheh

You are close

[surreal dust]

not convinced

so just waiting for open for my fate 😄

[urban flint]

Yeah, watch out. I think we get some serious volatility. Lots for market to digest

[surreal dust]

all SL in profit so if get taken out will look for new entries later

[agile jasper]

vwap at 875 lets pullback there before 22k

[agile jasper]

ripper

[nocturne sigil]

what a smack in someone's face

[quiet turret]

22K

[urban flint]

Yey NQ

[quiet turret]

price never touched VWAP since yesterday open

[normal bison]

🤑🤑🤑

[urban flint]

Looking strong.

[agile jasper]

it does indeed

ES is going through the roof

wow

[nocturne sigil]

We are entering the Golden Age

[agile jasper]

GC will see 3k soon

[spare bloom]

Today been easy just buy and ride it out

[agile jasper]

yup

[granite parrot]

Couldn’t agree more

[deft gorge]

and I've been selling the whole day.. dumb asf

[nocturne sigil]

17?

👀

[agile jasper]

not yet lol

[surreal dust]

Grrrr

stupid ass school run

anyone get the long?

[agile jasper]

yup

[surreal dust]

that was my 6k move

[agile jasper]

how some say "ez longs"

[quiet turret]

No VWAP pullback since yesterday open.

Not much happening with YM

[spare bloom]

Market is moving at a snail pace

[spare bloom]

I got the long before ny

rode it all the eay to 22k+

[quiet turret]

Nice 👍

[nocturne sigil]

15s giving us a clue on whats to come?

[spare bloom]

Market is slowpoke

Ny is litrally dead

gonna call it a day

[agile jasper]

tomorrow will be fun

trump speaking 1.5hrs after open

[spare bloom]

excellent

[surreal dust]

me too but moved SL up for school run and it got tagged before moving up

can I send my kids the bill?

😩

https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1178430832151638077

[quiet turret]

Will have to wait for the next entry.

[agile jasper]

when we pulling back?

[quiet turret]

Not sure. Just have to wait.

Till then we trade YM intraday

[normal bison]

I know it's not alot of money but I think I'm gonna cash out now, this run up feels to good to be true. I do still have 2 days tho

[quiet turret]

If it is 610 call strike, you should take profits. If you want to hold sell saem number of calls at breakeven price.

612.5 strike is @0.45 at this time

[surreal dust]

profit is profit no matter the figure.... good job

[surreal dust]

I am in longs atm

but i think we are setting up for tomorrow / Friday

annoyingly I have a knee rehab appointment in another city so going to miss most of the PA tomorrow

so lets call it Friday 😄

Is Trump speaking today?

[agile jasper]

get well soon

trump speaking tomorrow if i'm not mistaken

[surreal dust]

ahhhh ok

[surreal dust]

thanks ... it is just slow.... slower than I thought but it is getting better all the time

can walk down the stairs without holding the banister now... small victories 😄

[agile jasper]

small wins

[surreal dust]

speaking of which time to do more rehab

[quiet turret]

Did you guys take any trades in UK session?

[agile jasper]

sometimes yes

[quiet turret]

I think it is more profitable to trade during UK session. Specially when they grab liquidity?

[agile jasper]

or you get chopped

[quiet turret]

Is there any good liquidity strategy by our users?

[agile jasper]

have a look at #1128499789437354106, not sure myself

[quiet turret]

these been good trades for me.

[surreal dust]

took a long on the russell

[quiet turret]

But it our night time so can't always trade

[surreal dust]

yes and then they school run got in the way

and got stopped out

but @agile jasper was victorius for us 😄

[surreal dust]

yes quite a lot

[quiet turret]

Russell is hard to trust

[surreal dust]

For sure just like the entry

dont normally trade it tbh

[quiet turret]

I trade it onec in a while

[granite parrot]

I figured out what was wrong with my script @nocturne sigil compared to yours. Somewhere in mine there was one extra space and it threw off the signals.

[quiet turret]

There are not many good options today

[nocturne sigil]

That dam space !!!!!!!!!

[quiet turret]

They did not take any NQ longs out yet.

[quiet turret]

I was back testing Neo Clouds 3 & 5 crossover yesterday in backtester.

[surreal dust]

rest of this day could be boring consolidation

[granite parrot]

How’d it go?

[granite parrot]

Retail is just waiting for the drop lol

[quiet turret]

Need to work on SL and TP to make it profitable

[quiet turret]

True

[granite parrot]

A couple of those trades would’ve paid real good

[quiet turret]

15 Minutes P&L

[surreal dust]

haha

100 contracts

stacked all the way down 😄

[agile jasper]

there was a few on the way up when we traded 22k

[nocturne sigil]

you found me

[quiet turret]

VWAP at 980

[agile jasper]

NY's vwap here

[quiet turret]

I think most liquidity is there also

[surreal dust]

finally

[surreal dust]

you gonna be nice and give it up vwap 😏

[quiet turret]

I took a short scalp also but didn't hold it for too long.

[zinc ferry]

Come on BULLS. Dont take a vacation now!

[quiet turret]

😂

We missed you today.

[surreal dust]

its been too bullish

[zinc ferry]

BULLS had a short squeeze earlier and now they are getting drinks accross the street! Letting all of their gains evaporate!

In my world you dont give up gains or you are fired! I guess it really doesnt matter to them. They just take money from the funds anyway and tell the customers...oh sorry...it was the market...what BS

[surreal dust]

haha

vwap creeping up there @agile jasper she wants to hold this level 😄

[agile jasper]

yup yup

[quiet turret]

VWAP at 988

It is been very hard for the Bears to get to VWAP. Not a single touch. They did not take any longs out yet.

[surreal dust]

boring day now as predicted

might call it a day

[quiet turret]

We might close at high of the day, If Bulls comeback from across the street.

[quiet turret]

Good idea.

[surreal dust]

if we dont close abouve the high today... will be interesting... will be looking for shorts tomorrow

[zinc ferry]

I cant imagine they will push it again. They seem to be content right now. They have some ground to make up to do that. Lost 90 points since the high. Still down 75 from high and BEARS pushing them around. BULLS gave it up when they had it under control.

[surreal dust]

I am still in shorts now but just going to move in profit

for the rest of the day and chill out

[zinc ferry]

BULLS running out of time. 2:30 ET and they are playing footsie with the BEARS

[quiet turret]

I am am hoping for push down

So we can build swing long position

[zinc ferry]

BULLS pop their head up and BEARS play wack-a-mole

look at that! BEARS smacking BULLS around! Im embarrased for any big bank BULL traders! Just got schooled!

[surreal dust]

i think it is more of a gentle head caress atm 😄

[zinc ferry]

Nope. Headbutt by the BEARS! When the BEARS want to take over they just take it! Destroying the BULLS!

Looking like BULLS about to roll-over!!! Watch this!

[agile jasper]

full port sells

vwap flat at 22k

ES breaking lower

[zinc ferry]

FLUSH!

Good place to go longgrabbed some liquidity....lets see of the Banks and Algos want to push it hgih now

[surreal dust]

just a tease for now

[quiet turret]

Small liquidity we need to go under 22K. Around 21980 would be good liquidity.

[zinc ferry]

BEARs/SHORTS In full control now

[surreal dust]

need to lose vwap first :d

dam @nocturne sigil how many times I got to block you each week 😄

[zinc ferry]

Id rather see a push back up to 22,044 then s flush

But i think the flush will continue. We may close below the open if there is no help form BULLS

[nocturne sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/reaction-funny-memes-gif-24899028

[surreal dust]

not fighting the rock

hard pass 😅

https://tenor.com/view/teletubbies-gif-5902063624277826858

reckon I could take this one 😄

[agile jasper]

sellers still in the building

[surreal dust]

just dump it I am still in my short for nearly 3 hours 😄

[zinc ferry]

BESARS standing their ground well! BULLs have to break 22,024 to get structure back

There is always market close! If there is any fight left with the buyers (which there might not be based on this price action). There could be a decent jump post market close. PRice in smsall range unable to break one way or the other

[proper ore]

hello traders

[granite parrot]

Any big earnings reports in AH today?

[urban flint]

I'm going Long for power hour

[agile jasper]

lets see

we're still in the range

[urban flint]

That was ES sorry

Either way, long LFG lol

[grand galleon]

my v just turned all data delayed??? is just me??

[quiet turret]

YM trying.

Bears did not take any Bulls out of the game all day long. They go 45 minutes.

[surreal dust]

still holding muy shorts

[quiet turret]

ES Call open interest for today's expiary.

[surreal dust]

came back for the last 40 mins in case there is some action

PS5 controller is dead 😄

[quiet turret]

SPX. Not much open interest for Put side. More call writers.

[surreal dust]

boring boring

[surreal dust]

ohhh

interesting

so I can vote

up to the close

😂

[urban flint]

You just get likes and the price goes up

[surreal dust]

picked some nasty ranges there @quiet turret 😂

[turbid oriole]

or for every vote I'm giving a point to the charity of your choice HAHAHA

[quiet turret]

We need 3rd option in between.

[surreal dust]

well since I am in a short still... I will vote downside 😂

@urban flint stop hedging

and vote

😂

trade long.... vote short.... you win either way 😅

[urban flint]

Just took a loss 😦

[surreal dust]

ah sorry man

it is just going to range and chop here

sucks

[urban flint]

It was above lookign for that breakout.

Then it went under it so I had to close

[urban flint]

Still think it was a good trade, but could not afford to continue to hold

[surreal dust]

Thursday and Friday will be better days

[quiet turret]

We are holding the price above VWAP. Not even once coming close to is very Bullish.

[urban flint]

I really needed this black line to hold.

[surreal dust]

m7 is all mixed as well

[quiet turret]

I was hoping for them to take some longs out and they didn't do that either.

[urban flint]

Too late in the day now

[surreal dust]

Apparently good stats that Wed can set high / low of the week

[surreal dust]

i just want my vwap touch so I can close my short

[urban flint]

not a good day

[quiet turret]

We have 20% long and 80% short.

[surreal dust]

not a loss so its a good day 🙂

[urban flint]

Yea, I'll take it, just not happy about that last trade.

[granite parrot]

Solid day for me, portfolio up almost 10% 👍🏼

[urban flint]

was 100% until then

Good short 🙂

Glad I closed.

[surreal dust]

come on NQ

bloody tease

[granite parrot]

Same

[urban flint]

Goals are for people who care about winning once. Systems are for people who care about winning repeatedly.. as state on my wall. System said close.

Alright. later until tonights session

[surreal dust]

lol

maybe I should just trade 10 contracts

😂

[urban flint]

That is insane

[surreal dust]

i am doing it all wrong 😂

just studying his entry

he must have added to that

can't have been a straight 10 entry

[urban flint]

Exactly

[surreal dust]

21863 isn't a long entry for me

[urban flint]

you would have to gradually enter

[surreal dust]

811

would have been an entry for me I was asleep

[quiet turret]

Lets go Bulls

[surreal dust]

and I would have added contracts at 894

so maybe that is what he did

[surreal dust]

cough shorts you mean :p

[quiet turret]

Just looking for some action

[surreal dust]

about to get stopped in profit

yup its down

and so Iam I for the day lol

[quiet turret]

Strong day looking for run to day high

[surreal dust]

done for the day now

[quiet turret]

I think Bulls and Bears both went across the street drinking.

[surreal dust]

can't see any volume to move this atm tbh

see if asia takes the highs or we drop

I might stay up to short we will see

😄

[quiet turret]

Yes, It will be interesting.

[urban flint]

Should have gone long on NG earlier today with 10 contracts

That would have been the trading for life. lol

[surreal dust]

big balls on that guy

all accounts too

[urban flint]

All or nothing

[quiet turret]

Nice. I didn't pay attention.

[urban flint]

Yea, that can quickly go south unless you have a cushion

I've blown accounts, we all do, but imagine a small tweet or news hehe

[surreal dust]

woaaaah

[quiet turret]

SOme selling coming in

[surreal dust]

my ES short could taken out at vwap

[quiet turret]

That the VWAP

Nice move

[surreal dust]

caught it

[quiet turret]

Taking a small swing long position

[surreal dust]

973

[nocturne sigil]

Like Pokémon, gotta catch’em all

[quiet turret]

Congrats. Nice Trade.

[surreal dust]

got a long

close for 500

in anew long now

[urban flint]

lol T-5

[quiet turret]

Me 2. Lets go Bulls

[agile jasper]

40 points rejection off it

LETS GO

[surreal dust]

out again

ok now I am done haha

that was fun

[quiet turret]

Price is close to 21980 so our Poll was correct.

[surreal dust]

1 out of 1

retiring on those stats 😅

[zinc ferry]

NQ down 120pts from high today. And still going down! Pretty bad sell off to tned the day. Husually stops by now. hmm

[urban flint]

There he is!

[zinc ferry]

I gave up on the BULLS! They suck!

[urban flint]

Hehe they had a real run mate

[zinc ferry]

For a while. Just cant hold it. It has been some time since they held in to the close. I cant remeber the last rip in to the close.

Like once per month

[zinc ferry]

I see a lot of sell-offs! lol

[urban flint]

I see normal market moves and retracements

[zinc ferry]

i was joking

[urban flint]

I get it, when zooming in on the session it looks bad when that happens. Overall we're above 50 MA again which is a good relief for many I think

I can see a down day, but ultimately bulls in charge

[zinc ferry]

I think we need Asia and London to step in again. They had nice overnight movement last night

[agile jasper]

do we buy at open/

[urban flint]

No in my opinion

[zinc ferry]

may have finally found a bottom

[agile jasper]

concerning that we couldn't close above 22k

but asia session can take care of it

[nocturne sigil]

not concerned
refreshing though

[zinc ferry]

Still have not seen a real bottom. Slight retrace right now...not sure if this is a turn or s breather before going down again

[untold flint]

i like this one

[quiet turret]

If it completes the double market structure.

[fair socket]

Todays news

[surreal dust]

Shorted the open held for 11 hours 😅

[zinc ferry]

you are brave

[surreal dust]

Just followed my plan from
The close yesterday

Didn’t retake the high and close above

So for me that was weakness for the short today

Not expecting crazy lower just to clear out some targets that need clearing before up again

[raw gate]

i think 870 before open

[surreal dust]

waiting for ES to confirm downtrend as well still holding 6105 ... so need to see that goo too

[surreal dust]

Yes I am looking for that to start with

[zinc ferry]

open was almost identical to NY open yesterday

[zinc ferry]

Es breaking 6105

[surreal dust]

Nice

further we go

NQ on good bounce area tho time will tell

[zinc ferry]

just kind of consolidating

[surreal dust]

Still hoping for 798 before we turn around

we will see

shorted the ES now

so in 2 shorts

need NQ to play ball here tho

😅

[opaque parrot]

What is everyones thoughts on todays Nasdaq?

[zinc ferry]

Dumpster dive

dumpster fire. autoc orrect!

[surreal dust]

haha wow

straight to dumpster fire

[surreal dust]

at support... would like to lose support and head a bit lower 😄

[zinc ferry]

in a root candle, 1h open,-2.5SD

I think you get the reverse coming up to -3.5 SD

Touched -3 SD and then reversed

still my favorite....if you dont get it drink some more coffee

Look at Gold!

falling of a cliff

[surreal dust]

Yup and Silver with it

[fair socket]

Using MCT oil in your coffee, turns it overpowered 🔥 known as bulletproof coffee ha

[surreal dust]

gold and silver at support now

big fall if it goes

[surreal dust]

thanks for that haha

little scalp

[surreal dust]

turning out to be a good trade 😄

nice confluence with Silver as well

[normal bison]

Man I closed that call yesterday damn near at the top, thank God I did I'd Almost be in the red now if I hadn't.

[surreal dust]

always good to take profits!

nice trade on US30

took gold on my other account too... nice

[fair socket]

very nice, id like NQ to drop today before going higher

[surreal dust]

Got 650 on my radar

but short session for me today trying to get done for the day

as I away for the US market open and then close

NQ pretty strong at lows of the day tho

and ES still testing vwap over and over :/

We have Japan interest rates news for Asia session too

going to be a volatile Friday

[wary forge]

What Indicator do you use?

[fair socket]

me too, be good if we hit that today

[surreal dust]

flipped short on Gold

been amazing to trade last few hours

TP hit... out of Gold 😄

bloody ES is stopping the NQ

thank you silver :d

tp hit

got 800 out of it as I moved it about 10s before it wicked down... must be my lucky day today

😂
