Need to see some selling if we want to go down. For now, everything is pointing to that but no volume supporting a move down (yet)

[surreal dust]

mmmm dont like this area

so back to waiting I guess

[urban flint]

Yeah, I’m still leaning short, not convinced

[agile jasper]

rollercoaster day

[urban flint]

Would Make sense here, but not seeing any selling interest

[agile jasper]

eyeing 580s first

[quiet turret]

We are at minor support.

[agile jasper]

aka vwap? 😂

london closing in 10s

[urban flint]

Closed

[agile jasper]

volume is crap now

[urban flint]

Main problem I agree

[agile jasper]

locked out

[urban flint]

Back to waiting 🙂

[agile jasper]

contemplated to keep the options open but i got chopped quite alot today and gave up some

[urban flint]

Probably a good point

Lots for market to congest

Thinking of a long here lol

[agile jasper]

keep 700s in check

[urban flint]

Yeah, I’m just waiting but for now I he interest up is greater

My line in the sand is 21683

still below, but not by much

[surreal dust]

yeah not doing much

[agile jasper]

hire someone to do the school run son

you're missing the fun 😂

[surreal dust]

yeah no kidding

half term next week

so a little break 😄

[agile jasper]

nice long @urban flint gg

lol

[urban flint]

I did take that

[agile jasper]

NYs vwap held nice

[urban flint]

Yes for now

[agile jasper]

internet is so funny 😂

[urban flint]

Accurate

[quiet turret]

Was listening to Powell. No one asked him about todays CPI report yet.

[agile jasper]

is he still on?

[urban flint]

God bless his money printer

[agile jasper]

nice pump

if we keep it like this we'll close the news candle

[urban flint]

I mean let’s see

lol

Straight into a wall

[urban flint]

You can tell by my stop loss how sure I am about this trade..

[surreal dust]

about 10 points more sure than I am 😄

[urban flint]

I mean, a trend always starts somewhere, but it needs volume

[agile jasper]

it wants to push

[tribal sapphire]

i am long if closes above 753

I fear that BB on there

[urban flint]

Interesting area here

[agile jasper]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-more-gif-21856591

[urban flint]

Still not comfortable

Probably should close here but will let SL do the job

Might get lucky

[agile jasper]

good push

[tribal sapphire]

825 from here looks possible

[agile jasper]

take out the 774 wick and go 800s

[tribal sapphire]

thats only OB on 15M

[agile jasper]

800 first, big round number

[tribal sapphire]

right

[surreal dust]

yes finally

I knew if I went to the bathroom this would happen

you are all welcome

on ES too

double barrell sesh

[tribal sapphire]

i closed partially

I dont wanna give 500 back

heck yeah

keep going

800 is rejecting

i am out

biggest day so far for me

3000$

[urban flint]

I’m out

[tribal sapphire]

800 seems tough today

[quiet turret]

Hourly close

[urban flint]

That was fun. 2k

[surreal dust]

I am only a micro trader atm

i got 2k combined on es and nq haha

1 more week on micros and then I will switch back... although tbh i really like micros.... can enter 20 micros (2 minis) and then peel them off on extended moves

[tribal sapphire]

I was risking 500 on this one

[tribal sapphire]

that is actually better but isnt there difference in fees bw two them

[tribal sapphire]

thanks for the help the other day seems like i am back on track

[heady pelican]

i'm liking YM right now.. less choppy moves and they move 100 points at a time.

[urban flint]

Good stuff buddy. I can see a pullback back to 21721 and then up? Let’s wait and see

[quiet turret]

I traded more YM today than NQ

[heady pelican]

yea YM Had good moves today

250 point YM Move at 8:30 lol

[surreal dust]

yup but its not like it is huge

[tribal sapphire]

makes sense because you can do multiple TP with micro i guess so that a plus point for holding longer term trades

[surreal dust]

Yeah that is what I am learning

omg lol nearly entered a 10 contract Silver position

stupid topstep keeps the values in there from the micro positions

as it turns out that 10 silver contracts would have scalped nicely tho lol

[tribal sapphire]

silver had nice move

[quiet turret]

NQ green

[frosty geode]

papa trump said something

[surreal dust]

could have been 1.5k up already lol

on silver 😄

ofc when it goes my favour I managed to catch the 10 contract error....

last time it liquidated me cause it dumped 10s later lol

[surreal dust]

whisper my sweet nothings to me

[agile jasper]

this is the latest

more pump

[surreal dust]

plus can add in like 0.5 of a contract instead of 1

if you wanted to

[tribal sapphire]

800 is still holding

[agile jasper]

peaked above and it didn't like it

[tribal sapphire]

I am calling it a day

lets see whats for tommorow

[surreal dust]

I bet you want me to sub to your news channel to get the 2nd half of that text dont you @quiet turret

[agile jasper]

massive reversal

[surreal dust]

yup

nice to know I can do the school run on a news day and still catch a mega move 😄

[agile jasper]

so CPI did nothing

[surreal dust]

i mean i would say that

😅

silver trade still going strong low volume tho

apple / mico and apple all pushing up too

we will see not going to stay in much longer

[heady pelican]

god im good lol

[surreal dust]

[surreal dust]

https://tenor.com/view/johnny-english-agent-yawn-tired-rowan-atkinson-gif-17502421

finally my shorts are moving

[quiet turret]

Did quick short scalp

[surreal dust]

ditto

holding my silver short tho for a while

[quiet turret]

GC setting up for short

[surreal dust]

yup was looking at that ... went after silver instead when I saw gold was weak

[urban flint]

Nq seems to be a bit of in a identity crises

I’m sitting short with a mini, as I have no trust in the data at this time

[surreal dust]

wow

our first tie

lol

losers buy ice cream for the winners 😄

[jaunty dragon]

But I am lactose intolerant, can I have a beer instead?

[quiet turret]

Ok let's have a doji close. 😂

[surreal dust]

you are on the losing team

so ... no

😅

take it back you are on my team

so yes

🫠

[surreal dust]

Gold going nicely

[jaunty dragon]

I was about to say, looks red to me ;p

[urban flint]

Nice GC short thanks for pointing that one out

[quiet turret]

2912-2913 has some support

[surreal dust]

sorry friendly fire

[urban flint]

Kind of looks like Nq wants to see pdh

Crazy 21800

Very important area

[jaunty dragon]

Wow, what a thrust.

[urban flint]

Good moves 💚

Good green volume so far

[jaunty dragon]

Today, its time to play "Will It Bounce!". 21838, here we come.

[agile jasper]

new high yet?

[urban flint]

I’m just trailing my stop, but 1min looks extremely strong

[agile jasper]

big green dildo

[urban flint]

Super duper strong lol

👀

That move defiantly woke some people up

[urban flint]

Closed my long there

[quiet turret]

We can have sell-off before close and after market.

Need to be carful in this area

[snow delta]

After market

[quiet turret]

Before PPI. Asia & UK market time.

Just my opinion.

YM better option for shorting

[surreal dust]

yeah would be good if we range up here

and then take another dump tomorrow

think I am done for today dont want to get chopped at this stage ... not convinced of a breakout or a dump at this stage of the day

[quiet turret]

Yes had a good day. May be small scalps now.

or might call it a day

[jaunty dragon]

My TP is 21291, so keeping it open.

[urban flint]

Pretty good inverse fvg at 2926 if anyone looking to short Gold

[urban flint]

It’s gonna be may

[quiet turret]

NEWS can ignore all the technicals now days. Hard to hold anything over night.

[agile jasper]

shorts at the open then

[urban flint]

Haha, unclear

https://tenor.com/view/may-its-gonna-be-gif-21401434

It’s gonna be maybe

Just like the tariff topic

[agile jasper]

NQ is doing a dirty 22k overnight

[urban flint]

You think? I think it might reverse. I do think gc will be 3k though

[urban flint]

You might be right.

Gc is breaking out

[heady pelican]

have fun being blocked spammer

[nocturne sigil]

crazy stuff

[dusty hollow]

anyone able to take a quick question?

[nocturne sigil]

What a complete mess of a chart, right?

[nocturne sigil]

How can we help?

[dusty hollow]

Prior to the close today NQ had strong highs throughout multiple times frames at these levels but once it opened again they all became weak. Is there a way to anticipate that flip? Other than watching relentless price action to the upside all day lol

[nocturne sigil]

These strong/weak highs/lows are just your swing pivot highs/lows -

"👉 In the Community Streams, I often talk about the Premium/Discount Zones, or the Strong/Weak High/Lows, in the Price Action Concepts toolkit:

Premium/Discount Zones
Strong/Weak, High/Lows

Remember, these two anchor levels (H and L, premium and discount) are from the most recent swing points, so the metrics at these levels are from that structure, but of course price can still bust up or down.

But the further it busts up, we know sooner than later, this will come back down.

So these metrics gives us clues on how much further it can go. Its like how long do we want to hang onto the move, or do we really want to jump in now?, at the risk that the move could be over anytime soon. Just something to think about when you are entering or managing a current position.

https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/luxalgo-toolkits/price-action-concepts/market-structures#strong-weak-high-lows
https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/luxalgo-toolkits/price-action-concepts/pdzones

Strong high, Strong ceiling, Strong resistance
Can price bust through a strong ceiling?
How strong, how thick is the ceiling?

But if this ceiling has a key level nearby, OB's etc, maybe its too strong to bust through?
and maybe Ill just wait for a short set-up instead?

Just something to think about here, as I remember there were some questions regarding these levels in the community streams..."

cool story bro

[surreal dust]

lol its chop city today

on the NQ

[dull yoke]

lol. Yup!

[urban flint]

GM sure hope the News today does the trick on the market

[dull yoke]

There’s a 15m fvg (bearish) from days ago it’s bouncing around around in for the NQ.

[nocturne sigil]

yw

[surreal dust]

redicilous chop given yesterday was the bigger news event

[dull yoke]

The move is coming after NY open. You’ll see.

[surreal dust]

there is always a move then ... still going to get the wicks in the meantime tho 😄

[dull yoke]

Patience

[urban flint]

Any last words? 🙂

I guess there’s that and then maybe on tariff

[agile jasper]

i think he will mention the tariffs

[urban flint]

I think so too, that should create something

I have a small stop order here on the news. Let’s see

[surreal dust]

i never got an ice cream

[urban flint]

Hehe

My guess is a send down like yesterday, but let’s see in a few

[agile jasper]

lets see

dont think it'll be as violent as yesterday

big wick there

[clear cedar]

Wicked just under the 5-minute midnight candle

Load the shorts baby

[agile jasper]

should be reaching to the overnight low

[urban flint]

Cool dojo

[agile jasper]

or no lol

[surreal dust]

https://tenor.com/view/side-hustle-nickelodeon-nick-jules-leblanc-eh-gif-23020953

[agile jasper]

go through 900 already

[urban flint]

Exactly

[agile jasper]

why the hesitation

[urban flint]

I mean, it’s moving up into selling. It is not super organic at this time

[agile jasper]

rugpulled

[urban flint]

I’m not super interested here. Sure hope we develop a trend soon. It’s been way to long

[agile jasper]

just leave the range already

[urban flint]

Exactly

I don’t care in what direction, just do something worth trading lol

[spare bloom]

Well you missed it

now you wait for the next setup

[urban flint]

I don’t really look at the market like that 🙂 I do however have a long at the fvg before the news

[spare bloom]

it was a short from london highs

[urban flint]

Might pull it though, just a game time decision

[spare bloom]

See multiple rejections

It is a long if it breaks above

[urban flint]

We all trade differently, nothing of this excited me or triggered my setups I’m looking for. Good on you if you made money on that pop!

[spare bloom]

I didnt take the pop i shorted the top

[urban flint]

Good call, it is still selling

Let’s see what open brings

[agile jasper]

trump to announce tarrifs at 1PM

[urban flint]

I saw on my professional network that the list was long on these tariffs. Not sure exactly what’s on the agenda, but Canada might get a jab given the primenisters comment yesterday.

I’m kind of thinking of trading something else today.

[sturdy wharf]

good looks

[sturdy wharf]

join me... agricultural futures

[quiet turret]

Good morning everyone.

[spare bloom]

Good long

Maybe 22k today

🔥

[dull yoke]

precision

[spare bloom]

We took same trade

But i switched to long now since we broke london highs like i mentioned before

sticking to the rules

[surreal dust]

who is brave enough to short 😄

[quiet turret]

We don't fight the market

[spare bloom]

It can be a short if we it fails to break 22k

[tulip rose]

i like this room, so many traders good at finding top and bottom before happen, i need to learn this
hehe

[quiet turret]

Was hoping for a move down last night

[dull yoke]

was a good trade

[spare bloom]

Good to have you back bro

we take same trades as always hahah

[surreal dust]

sorry :/

hit my rejection zone

[spare bloom]

Good rugpull

Must be a tweet

[urban flint]

Nice short

[spare bloom]

Thats big rejection i thought it would go higher

Guess we sticking with the shorts for now

or could be a bear trap

[surreal dust]

dont trap me

got school run in 15 mins

https://tenor.com/view/argh-no-angry-gif-18759229

[dull yoke]

Thanks man!!! Missed you guys!!!!

[spare bloom]

Trap in order

[urban flint]

Still no trade for me. That was a nice long inverse fvg on 15min though

[surreal dust]

moved SL into 50% profit

[urban flint]

Good call. Looks strong

[surreal dust]

yup :/

[urban flint]

Still pressure though from
Bears. Not decided yet

[spare bloom]

it will prolly chop

[surreal dust]

nice area to bounce from

[spare bloom]

Hahaha the trap

[surreal dust]

yup took my profit for now

so back to waiting

[spare bloom]

people might short from this tho

Good retracement into a short

[surreal dust]

its true

[spare bloom]

If we hold the lows we going up

[quiet turret]

At VWAP

[spare bloom]

I expect chop until trump

Was it 1 pm

[surreal dust]

Powell again soon too

[spare bloom]

Good call i am done for today then

[quiet turret]

Is Powell speaking today?

[spare bloom]

In 6 minutes

[dull yoke]

86.25 handles so far.... good start

[urban flint]

Took the long down there

[quiet turret]

Feb 12th?

[surreal dust]

maybe I shouldn't trade today

I am in the past

😂

[spare bloom]

Hahahaha man we on fire today

I even called it at that time

Thats when i said bear trap

[surreal dust]

you wont get any of my honey

[quiet turret]

Yesterday he tried to ignore the numbers.

[spare bloom]

I am allergic to honey so you can keep it

[surreal dust]

definitely giving it to you then ... until you short 😄

[urban flint]

✅

[sturdy wharf]

what was that

[surreal dust]

agreeing to feed cartia honey till he shorts

[sturdy wharf]

why 10 go uppy

[urban flint]

Just realized I traded one micro instead of a mini. lol

[surreal dust]

thats what she said

does that work 😄

[urban flint]

Hahaha

Good one

[surreal dust]

on school run.. so might as well act like a kid

[urban flint]

Stopped out. Might be a good call though.

[sturdy wharf]

this market is so reactive

[urban flint]

Yeah, you will have to wait for the knot to work itself out

Back to waiting for a real trade

[deft gorge]

too many spikes today

[spare bloom]

Trump market

rollercoaster

[nocturne sigil]

Grabbing highs soon?

[glad fractal]

gm i think es short zone to 6094 to 6104

[quiet turret]

Good question.

[nocturne sigil]

roll the dice I guess

[glad fractal]

please let me know what guys think about those zones

[quiet turret]

Like you said complete mess of chart.

[nocturne sigil]

true true

garbage action

LOLL

but its pinching on the 4H

[agile jasper]

come on 22k

[sturdy wharf]

Out of all the indicies I went with the DOW and it does not give a shit about everything else going up LMAO

I think the DOW is the most stubborn future

[spare bloom]

It is heavily controlled

It has a mind of its own

[sturdy wharf]

It really does

russell seems to follow it more then ES and NQ

[quiet turret]

Bulls fighting for 22K

[agile jasper]

they will get it

[quiet turret]

Done

[surreal dust]

lol

arrrgggh

[spare bloom]

The bear trap worked

[granite parrot]

One trade is all it took today to hit my profit goal, that’s why I’m not a fan of prop firms and all their BS rules.

[nocturne sigil]

Nice

And jahahaha

[granite parrot]

Time to sit back and watch what reciprocal tariffs Trump announces at 1pm, should be interesting

[gloomy quail]

Hello everyone. DAY 4 of 5, let's do it again

got distracted with NQ

was a nice long on vwap on gold

[quiet turret]

YM

[civic tiger]

Am I missing something because when I use the 3 bar reversal on cl it shows in one area but when I use it on mcl it shows in another 🤔

[heady pelican]

getting close to a short on NQ it needs a pullback

[agile jasper]

different tickers

[surreal dust]

Caca is sharp

[civic tiger]

Ok I thought the only difference was the price

Learn something new everyday 💪🏾

[heady pelican]

there is no logic behinf these candles they arent moving the way they are supposed to

[agile jasper]

ES new high

[surreal dust]

nice moves

in NQ and GC long

should have taken ES too

[quiet turret]

Beautiful YM long scalp

[surreal dust]

was just looking at that

What about close exactly at 22k? That’s the green 00 on roulette I think

[surreal dust]

then you win for the year 😄

[heady pelican]

NQ Is hella over bought lol

[quiet turret]

It can still go up more

[agile jasper]

as long as ES is flying

[heady pelican]

its in middle of Premium zone now

[quiet turret]

Depends on the time frame

What time frame are you trading?

[heady pelican]

2 min

[quiet turret]

ok

short term can be over bought but long term still bullish

[heady pelican]

double top in middle of premium on the 5 min as well

[heady pelican]

what time you trading?

[quiet turret]

This is 4 hours

[surreal dust]

yup interesting area right now

[quiet turret]

I trade multiple time frames and multiple strategies.

[surreal dust]

make or break for today

[surreal dust]

my final tp is 22200 today... maybe ambitious we will see how it goes

trailing SL atm

not adding more contracts now

[heady pelican]

shorts will come after close lol

[surreal dust]

they can do what they want after the close 🙂

[heady pelican]

its only closed for an hour lol

[surreal dust]

I am out at the close so a dump is great in Asia

[dull yoke]

lol. Yup

[zenith narwhal]

So how is everyone's day going...

Did it again

Like idk who of you is targeting me

but this isn't funny

Stop bullying my algo pls

[surreal dust]

@spare bloom is pretty evil

i found his weakness tho

😏

[zenith narwhal]

bigtiddygothgirls?

The amount of Micky's on Discord these last days is insane.

there can only be one

[surreal dust]

well guess we found out he likes your weakness 😄

pmh in range

come on NQ catch

up

ES too strong

running out out time 😅

[heady pelican]

NQ Just broke the previous monthly high

[surreal dust]

Where is our perma bear

[frosty geode]

overnight gap potetial towards ATH

[heady pelican]

i think its out of steam

[surreal dust]

yup I might just take my profit

will give it another 5 mins and see

just closed my gold trade too

[heady pelican]

those are good profits for Micros

[surreal dust]

ES just stopped out in profit too

only NQ left

[quiet turret]

Beautiful trade 👍

[surreal dust]

ty

[surreal dust]

yup pretty good... downsized for the last week ... found micros gives me more room to play when the market is so volatile

[heady pelican]

i'm only up 500 across 5 accts lol

[surreal dust]

that sounds pretty good to me man !

[tribal sapphire]

can u share your chart please if u dont mind

[heady pelican]

normally im in the 2 to 3K range

[surreal dust]

dinner first? 😄

[surreal dust]

any day in profit is a good day

[quiet turret]

GC looking at ATH. 3K?

[heady pelican]

true lol

[surreal dust]

yeah I was thinking if I should hold ... but had enough holding for today lol

[surreal dust]

closed 2 of 3 trades

[surreal dust]

that was on topstep platform

[tribal sapphire]

do you guys also use propfirm accounts if yes which one

[surreal dust]

topstep and apex

[tribal sapphire]

do you use trade copier

[quiet turret]

4:1

[surreal dust]

sometimes... I prefer not to ...... Caca and Danny are trade copier pros tho

[heady pelican]

i use Apex and Topstep with the trade copier from Apex

[tribal sapphire]

i tried using it doesnt work for some some reason on Apex

[surreal dust]

oh that is interesting...... tradovate?

[tribal sapphire]

anyhints on how to set it up properly

[heady pelican]

yep

[surreal dust]

ahhh that is nice... didn't know you could use tradovate for topstep too

[heady pelican]

there is a full article on Apex dashboard on how to set it up

[tribal sapphire]

i will check it out. maybe i made a mistake while setting it up.

[surreal dust]

ahh ofc ... forgot you can use topstep on tradovate... got so used to the Topstep platform I forgot there is others lol

[heady pelican]

the trade copier is $150 to use

[surreal dust]

i thought it was free... I didn't have to pay for it to use on apex

[heady pelican]

you have to use the copier. not the group trade from tradovate

group trade on ntradovate is free. but i like to execute on tradingview so you need the copier for that

i dont like the tradovate charts

[surreal dust]

I agree

stopped out in profit

going to watch a movie

gg guys see you all tomorrow

[tribal sapphire]

copier is a paid thing

?

[heady pelican]

if you want to execute trades on tradingview then yes it cost $150. if you wnt to copy on tradovate or ninjatrade its free

[tribal sapphire]

can u give me a tip on passing the challenge i have this account since last month

[heady pelican]

That's my tradingview. I can execute right on the charts

[tribal sapphire]

that is actually more easier since i use tradingview lot more and more familiar with it

[surreal dust]

Be patient and wait for good setups

TV is the best …. I use TV for apex

[heady pelican]

best advice ever

and dont trade when wicks are moving 100 points at va time lol

[surreal dust]

Unless you are smoking something …. Then it all makes sense 😅

[tribal sapphire]

that what i try not not to do

[heady pelican]

haha

[tribal sapphire]

I kind of missed the move today but i guess should have stayed patient

it came into good pullback

[heady pelican]

best advice i can give is goto Youtube and watch a ton of videos on the 15 minute opening range strategy. i find that is the most consistent strategy

[surreal dust]

There are always a couple moves each day… if you miss it there is always tomorrow …. Friday should be fun considering how we closed today

I know it’s still open but I stopped looking 10 mins ago 🤣

[tribal sapphire]

I tried that on other asset i think i like it might start combining that with my own strategy

[surreal dust]

It is a good quick time to trade if you are around can be done in the hour pre market and hour post market open

[heady pelican]

and stick to 1 or 2 symbols like NQ and ES and master them

[long elbow]

It's done for today

[tulip rose]

enter earlier than your box? what about your losses?

i see a short before that? what happened to that one?

[long elbow]

I enter the trade as soon as I have confirmation from the SMC and use this trend line as support or resistance.

[tulip rose]

and a long before that

[long elbow]

the study of the code by tradingview the profitability I have

and this is the nasdaq chart in 30 minutes

[jaunty dragon]

Nice!

[tulip rose]

looks like demo account?

[urban flint]

nice close on nq

have a good weekend!

[agile jasper]

good pump was about to say

[agile jasper]

it's thursday today...

[urban flint]

Sorry

lol

[sturdy wharf]

okayy....... so I did a thing.

[urban flint]

going on vacation tomorrow

haha

[heady pelican]

these NQ Moves are wild

[long elbow]

I am a trader in Lisbon, I trade forex on the XTB platform and crypto on Binace.

[sturdy wharf]

lets see if im good enough to do this LMAO

[agile jasper]

you're pardoned

[agile jasper]

keep us posted

[sturdy wharf]

445$ was steep but guaranteed payouts without having to keep money in the account and getting a live at the end sounds lit

[heady pelican]

success rate is low on Evals on your first attempt

[heady pelican]

here comes the after market dump lol

[sturdy wharf]

this ain’t my first rodeo LMAO

[surreal dust]

Anywhere nice ?

[tulip rose]

look more on demo on free trading view to me, sorry

[surreal dust]

Straight to funded account ?

[surreal dust]

Sharp eyes 😅

[tulip rose]

hehehehe
we are experts here

[heady pelican]

i shoulda just bought straight to funded accts. it took me like 4 blown 20 accts before i finally passed lol but now i have 20 PA Accts making me 20K+ a week

[surreal dust]

Amazing job!

[heady pelican]

took alot of work and frustration and a few punched computer moniters lol

[tulip rose]

and the trading broker panel tab is not logged onto a broker
and the tv logo is expanded, the paid version collapses

[heady pelican]

it aint that serious lol

[languid drum]

hey, how are you guys, sorry for the bothering you with my stupid questions - but could you please explain me guys which prop firms do you prefer and which one is better?

[heady pelican]

Apex is probably the best

[languid drum]

also I do have a premium lux algo membership - any recommendations which strategy to use? I do have it for a long time but never used any tools

[surreal dust]

I noticed some of that too haha

Not all tho 😅

[languid drum]

thank you

[surreal dust]

Apex and topstep different pros and cons

A lot of people are anti apex so it is nice to have another apex supporter lol

[heady pelican]

i just like Apex because they allow the 20 funded accts

[tulip rose]

hehe now i wait for private messages

[surreal dust]

Haha I am sure they will come !

[heady pelican]

if you get 20 funded accts all you need it like 10 points a day to make massive money lol

[surreal dust]

All the same account size ?

[heady pelican]

i just do 50K's cause they are easy to pass

[surreal dust]

Interesting

[languid drum]

Am i aloowed to get 20 - 350k accounts lol?

[heady pelican]

yes but will take you awhile to pass them

[surreal dust]

I use 150k and 250k but makes sense 20 x 50k and copy trading

[languid drum]

you guys use any lux algo tools?

[surreal dust]

200 usd profit a day x 20 accounts is 4k a day

Something to think about actually

[heady pelican]

there is no benefit to the higher accts cause the drawdown is the same on all

[languid drum]

lot of traders too that and posting it on twitter

[sturdy wharf]

yup

[languid drum]

thats make sence

[surreal dust]

The drawdown is not the same on 150/250 as a 50k account

[surreal dust]

Ftmo ?

[heady pelican]

imagine the potential lol and its not hard to get 10 to 20 points a day

[languid drum]

you guys purchase static accounts, correct?

[sturdy wharf]

ftmo?

[surreal dust]

Makes a lot of sense I have 3 x 250 and 1 x 150 but I trade them separately

[surreal dust]

Ftmo is a prop i thought it was that one

[surreal dust]

I don’t

[sturdy wharf]

MFFU

[surreal dust]

Ahhhhh let me know how you get on !

[languid drum]

they do not work with us customers anymore

[surreal dust]

Didn’t know that

[heady pelican]

yea, just get like 10 50k's to start and pass them by copy trading. then you will start seeing the good money. i started with 10 then did another 10

[languid drum]

I do have FXIFY prop account (Forex)

they started offering Futures now too

[surreal dust]

Not heard of them

[sturdy wharf]

ill post updates in the chat!

[languid drum]

UK prop firm - they have a broker too

also I do have an account with Toptier - got 2 payounts total of 37k - it took 24 hours only to receive a payment from them

I want to get a futures prop firm too - so I could diversify my trading

[languid drum]

all of them are funded right?

[agile jasper]

your account is not connected to lux, you'll have channels that you won't see due to this. https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/getting-started/join-discord

[frosty geode]

/nq might short squeeze tommorow

[agile jasper]

deleted that, you don't want your email address visible on the internet. reach out to the team on the website or email [e-mail] so they can fix it for you @languid drum

[languid drum]

got u, thank you

[heady pelican]

NQ made a 290 point upswing in todays open market

[surreal dust]

Yup

[surreal dust]

Interesting payout schedule

[surreal dust]

Oh I didn’t know there was a UK one

Will check them out

[agile jasper]

so now we know @nocturne sigil traded NQ at the open today

ES 2k lots on the bid now

[clever geyser]

What software is this ?

[urban flint]

💯 micky trading there

[agile jasper]

that's the DOM from topstepx

[nocturne sigil]

Do we short at the top of this range?

[quiet turret]

YM

[urban flint]

22300?

Mega bullish at this time

[urban flint]

So hard to pick reversals, so far all data pointing up

Small after hours

[nocturne sigil]

tough = crappy

LOL

[urban flint]

💯 truth there for me

Sometimes I think if I look at this data and did not have a brain, what would I do? Then if my indicators point up I take the trade 😂 this is one of those cases, why long the top at massive VAH. Well the lower tf will tell me when to get out

Good night

Done with the phone and trading apparently

[heady pelican]

nice little evening scalp

[heady pelican]

thats better no acct #'s lol

its nice to get a scalp in the evening. now there isn't so much pressure for a big win in the NY Open

[quiet turret]

GC struggling with ATH

[heady pelican]

i feel a massive NQ pullback is coming soonish. lots of liquidity to grab on the downside

[urban flint]

True. What’s up with gold?

[heady pelican]

tanking at the moment lol

[hard coral]

I subscribed to the store for $39. How do I activate my account? Please contact me through technical support. Thank you 🤍

[urban flint]

Nice job!

[surreal dust]

in new gold short

keeps giving 😄

[urban flint]

Maybe?

[agile jasper]

possibly a dip at the open

[urban flint]

that would be optimal

Retest trend and broken resistance

Let’s see what we get. My guess is tariff talk will do the trick

[agile jasper]

when is he speaking?

[urban flint]

It’s not clear 🙂

[surreal dust]

Qaction trying to scare us so he can fill his positions

[agile jasper]

😂

[urban flint]

💯

I’m also thinking of a short at 22142

[surreal dust]

no one trusts you anymore for today

😂

Going to do a @spare bloom and counter trade you lol

[urban flint]

Haha I get it. I have to many setup and change on a dime lol

[surreal dust]

haha I meant more the tariff news 😄

[urban flint]

Ohh

Yeah I have a direct line to trump

[surreal dust]

was just messing around

[urban flint]

He will tell us

[surreal dust]

I am in a gold long now

2 shorts and a 1 long on gold

NQ and ES i am looking for higher then will try short

[quiet turret]

Good morning everyone.

[urban flint]

I was 4 ticks away from filling that short 😆

I’m too cheap

[agile jasper]

ES pushing

[surreal dust]

looks like I wont get a new trade until later

hopefulyl es and nq dont tag the highs until i get back

still would like to short if it presents

[agile jasper]

let me guess school run 😂

Crude botoming out at this breaker

Any 1 in this?

[surreal dust]

only in liquid gold today

[agile jasper]

NQ stuck at the vwap there

[quiet turret]

My chart VWAP is at 109

[agile jasper]

yup, that's the one

[urban flint]

Still waiting.

[spare bloom]

Werent you short

I took a nice long

21095

It did chop for a while but was worth the wait

@surreal dust you didnt long ?

[nocturne sigil]

🙄

@sturdy wharf 's Dow

[spare bloom]

Market broke 22k i wont be shorting without a reason

[agile jasper]

big push on the NQ

[spare bloom]

it is long only

[nocturne sigil]

Crude nice re-entry

[urban flint]

I could say the same about you yesterday 😆

No short yet. Had a long at 22119 fvg but am out

[nocturne sigil]

Will Neo flip on the 15s?

[quiet turret]

Finished my daily goal early.

[urban flint]

We are right at pdh

[sturdy wharf]

NQ really couldn’t break that

coming screaming down

now it wants to go up

BREAK IT

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-more-gif-21856591

literally slap all the short sellers

[spare bloom]

Bear trap

[sturdy wharf]

Or is it bulls seem to be so scared of buying up there

[sturdy wharf]

where’s the guy that hates weak bulls

[spare bloom]

Tbh it was looking like a short setup

[sturdy wharf]

riley

it is

I just lost 100 ticks

fucking pathetic

[spare bloom]

You bought at the top?

[sturdy wharf]

No I was up 100 ticks and it came back to my buy

I wanted it to break

[quiet turret]

GC 5Min

[sturdy wharf]

nice

[quiet turret]

FVG on GC chart is 15Min

[dusty hollow]

good morning, i'm new and still trying to find my way through the PAC. really struggling with these "strong/weak high/lows" on short time frames

[quiet turret]

Welcome

[urban flint]

Bad timing, on a plane about to take off lol

Will be interesting now if it test the low and hold

[quiet turret]

One of the Mod will help you out.

GC 1HR

[dusty hollow]

everyone is responsive which is great. i'm diving into the videos they send trying to figure it out.

[quiet turret]

Nice bounce at support. 2635 would be good place to look for short.

[urban flint]

Fomo time

[zinc ferry]

Brits selling again! do they ever buy? Im not sure they know how to buy?

[urban flint]

Very low volume however

[dull yoke]

I think I just got lucky.... 🤷‍♂️ I made my week right here but I may do the afternoon session... Until nest time fella's.....

[zinc ferry]

Once the Brits go to the pub, the market will fly

[dusty hollow]

strong high=strong resistance? or strong high=likely to hold high?

[tulip rose]

hehe i can pick the bottom and top, same as everyone here , hhehehe 😘

i take on ig account

[zinc ferry]

Both sell offs are Brits!

Typical

[unique knoll]

May I ask, what indicator is that green box?

[zinc ferry]

This drop is just the typical London sell off! Happens almost eery day

If the Brits learned how to hold positions...they would all be very wealthy given how the markets reverse after they leave!

[tulip rose]

that is the drawing long tool i use in chart. i show where i enter long to the exact price, just like some traders here. we have crystal ball, yeyeyeye

[unique knoll]

Got it, thank you

[dull yoke]

who knows, I getting so lucky today.... MY DAY BOYS!! 👀

[dull yoke]

It's called liquidity levels....

[tulip rose]

i use my own 😚 better entry

[unique knoll]

LuxAlgo's?

[urban flint]

Pretty impressive how strong Nq really is

[zinc ferry]

Price action is just a mess today. Needs to clean itself up

[urban flint]

Took a long

[agile jasper]

also looking for longs

[urban flint]

Out again. Yeah ranging

I want that breakout though

In again

[agile jasper]

it's getting real tight

ES can't go above the vwap holding NQ down

[urban flint]

Like. Common

[agile jasper]

i think there's more downside

[urban flint]

Where is this going?

I have no clue, there’s like 0 volume telling the direction

I think down but don’t know

Bad day for me

Like what? 🙂

[quiet turret]

GC daily and 4Hr

[surreal dust]

still in nq short

so slow

[quiet turret]

NQ at VWAP

[surreal dust]

yup

in short from the high

[quiet turret]

Beautiful long scalp

[urban flint]

Finally

Started taking micro as I was getting annoyed lol

[quiet turret]

Hourly close will be very bullish if it holds

[urban flint]

Then of course it broke out

[dusty hollow]

just got a break block on nq 5min

[surreal dust]

i mean not much follow through up here

added to my short :p

[dusty hollow]

if price falls back through it will it negate it

[surreal dust]

added to short and move SL tighter lol

[urban flint]

Yeah, I hate going long and not seeing buying

[surreal dust]

that is how sure I am

[urban flint]

I’m just not comfortable either way. Looks like ranging

[quiet turret]

Hourly close. Still in the range.

[urban flint]

I excited my long

[granite parrot]

Accomplished my goal this week @nocturne sigil

[surreal dust]

going to go back to ps5

set alerts and wait

[urban flint]

Any close below 22149 and your short should be safe

[nocturne sigil]

👀

[surreal dust]

pdh?

[surreal dust]

nice chart

!

[nocturne sigil]

awesome, you did it!

[surreal dust]

Micky's charts are too pretty :/

[nocturne sigil]

You mean LuxAlgo's tools

[quiet turret]

@nocturne sigil Someone had a question about strong high.

[surreal dust]

gj!

[surreal dust]

have a great time man!

[nocturne sigil]

TY

[nocturne sigil]

Hey there, lots of info coming at you now

"👉 In the Community Streams, I often talk about the Premium/Discount Zones, or the Strong/Weak High/Lows, in the Price Action Concepts toolkit:

Premium/Discount Zones
Strong/Weak, High/Lows

Remember, these two anchor levels (H and L, premium and discount) are from the most recent swing points, so the metrics at these levels are from that structure, but of course price can still bust up or down.

But the further it busts up, we know sooner than later, this will come back down.

So these metrics gives us clues on how much further it can go. Its like how long do we want to hang onto the move, or do we really want to jump in now?, at the risk that the move could be over anytime soon. Just something to think about when you are entering or managing a current position.

https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/luxalgo-toolkits/price-action-concepts/market-structures#strong-weak-high-lows
https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/luxalgo-toolkits/price-action-concepts/pdzones

Strong high, Strong ceiling, Strong resistance
Can price bust through a strong ceiling?
How strong, how thick is the ceiling?

But if this ceiling has a key level nearby, OB's etc, maybe its too strong to bust through?
and maybe Ill just wait for a short set-up instead?

Just something to think about here, as I remember there were some questions regarding these levels in the community streams..."

here's a link to one of the recordings: #1199356285813006367 message

[quiet turret]

It will be interesting to see how GC closes next hourly candle.

[nocturne sigil]

That bull OB will stay strong

💪

[coarse sigil]

Hey Micky

Did you DM me?

[nocturne sigil]

not at all

[coarse sigil]

Please check your DM from me it'll take two seconds, easy fix for you and keeps community safe.

[nocturne sigil]

I dont DM anyone new for no reason

[nocturne sigil]

and I dont check DM's if I didnt receive any

sorry

not me

[coarse sigil]

I'll have to read the welcome guide as i randomly got invited here by your clone 😛

[nocturne sigil]

Lets get granular

[dusty hollow]

thanks again for the info. i'm watching the videos you've sent me the last few days along with price action and it seemed that strong highs were continually being broken

[nocturne sigil]

Will we tag the below highly traded node? yellow level.

[quiet turret]

GC market structure

[nocturne sigil]

the strong highs will always be broken at one point in time.
They are just swing pivot highs and lows.
Market structure peaks and valleys....

Hope this helps...

[nocturne sigil]

one more leg down? before the rocket takes off?

[coarse sigil]

Ive dmed you about it, will switch channels now and dleete those from here

[nocturne sigil]

again, you are not in my DM, because you are messaging a scammer.

[quiet turret]

Would like to see 3K

[nocturne sigil]

Thats the golden number

[glad stirrup]

I am trying to find the videos that I had to watch as step 3 but I can't find them

is it possible to help me @nocturne sigil ?

[nocturne sigil]

Sure, what did you mean "step3"?

[glad stirrup]

when I signed up and I connected my trading view

as step 3 it gave me several videos to watch

but I must have accidentally closed it

[urban flint]
