not touching it, if I enter short it'll go green and wont stop still its 950 again π
haha for sure I am not touching anything
locked out all accounts apart from 1 which is locked out for an hour while I just observe
just made $200 in my micro cash personal broker acct
just about pays for lunch at the golf course haha
3 whiskey's before the 1st hole and beer while on the course lol
it's whisky without the e!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
maybe ive had too many already lol
ahahaha
oh God
do you play better or worse tho with the whiskey... cause you might have an expensive problem if you play better with the whisky π
i play better after a few drinks
this gonna work again?
probably true for most
not good area to buy or sell for me
I think we range here
london close in 4 minutes, then lunchbreak so maybe the next move will be in 1.5h
new lows NQ
21k incoming
CL is dumping
VIX is fake π
pay the activation fee tonight
and you're good to trade after that
Thanks
Will they contact me regarding that
after end of play you will get a congrats email
and then instructions will be attached
oh gosh
great job Kara! i passed my combines today too
That is nasty
it's ok, 151x 50k combines to cover that. easy
Congrats man
not getting them from me !
nice! glad its working for you!
21k liquidity grab?
Did three trades
dam did you master it already
800 on 2 1000 on 1
wow well done
I just buy or sell when it reacts to 12 ema
me too but we aren't doing the same thing π
see @surreal dust its not complicated lol
I love price-action but for evals this is quickest
lol
that is what it is π
Guys am so confused with the price action video that I watched I donβt know the 30 mins or 15 mins which one to use please advice me
will go practise now I am locked out actually lol
See u are strange too
shhhh dont tell everyone lol
π€£
how long are you holding trades?
One minute at max
honestly that is the thing I struggle with the most
Wait for canlde to open form a wick and enter
See how it is pushing
And exit I go for 3 contracts and 30Sec
You can do with 1 contract and 2-3 minutes
thats how its done
I donβt even wait for candle to close i am out before that
wow really
correct, 30 seconds to a minute max
which video
see thats +140 profit. now you wait for next time it crosses ema and do it again
i guess you could but that defeats the pourpose of getting out in the first place
so need to wait for it to tag the ema again before I open a new trade?
ohh nice recovery by topstep
wait for it to go red under the ema now
that's dakota's account not the house account
ahhhhhh
That was me
standard
i decided to long 21030
yeah I would have looked for a long if my accounts weren't locked out tbh
damn from -2k to 7k that's a good one
just 5 guys
big for me then :d
I dunno why i find this so difficult
hard to switch to this from how I normally trade or would look for
well it hit profit
lol
why change it?
I am making profit slowly lol
I am just curious! Wanted to understand more about this way of doing it as it serves Lingle so well
education and interest π
it is all about risk management
NQ still going. vwap at 21222 now
now I feel bad... about not holding that lol
NY's vwap at 155 here
I used to do 50 trades a day but now i settle for 2-3 big trades i got no time
It is fun to scalp tho when you have the time and patience
i guess I dont undersand where the risk levels are on this when it flips and crosses ema again I guess
is when to close
if just happened and why am I up
man I would have liked the NQ short from mopen π
if the trade goes against you close it imiediately
it takes time to get used to it but you need to be very fast
I sold at 5966
There are times the market flips 1 point before your tp and it drops 20 points
lol
yes
ok will bank it
like i said.. there are setups every couple minutes.. dont worry about it running
now I wait until it cross ema blue again right? no trade again until then?
correct
close
sometimes that will happen. just keep looking for same setups. it wins moree than it loses
How much do you risk per trade with this
is that valid? even those it is blue candle under ema?
me? 1 contract
i dont use TP's or SL So my risk is unlimited.
normally i dont lose more than 200 per loss
man beautiful mopen short on NQ why did i locked ou t:/
well I am getting there slowly
Using tick chart?
1000 tick
1000T
flipped a lot through the chop, be careful
this is in a practice account
is this valid @heady pelican
not really.. its too choppy
ok
wait for clear direction
i win @fair socket

for now anyway π
What happened
nice win?
just learning Lingle style lol in practice account
fuck, i forgot i gotta fork out $750 to activate these funded accounts lol
ahahah
you have 30 days to do it
oh, what style?
some tricks?
better get that real account up to 750 then π
Who can put me through
$750?
thats crazy
put you through what
trading the 12 / 10 ema cross overs
i got plenty of money to do it. just forgot about it lol
$149 per account. he's a big boy and plays with 5
excuse me
150 per acct and i passed 5 accts
Futures stock
dam copy traders
moneys finally left my accounts, can trade them from tomorrow! although i wanna get these 4 more combines passed what are break even lol
you're in the right channel
Okay
yea, but $500 a day x5 is $2500 a day which is $12.5k a week lol
sweet.... news on Friday will try get some Apex accounts through on 1 day passes
yeah great sense ... can't argue against that lol
NVDA tomorrow
tempting to buy some today tbh and get in position
lol
ah its recovered quite a lot already
20k tomorrow
what is the most down days in a row for NQ?
is it 6?
dont think covid counts tho
π
really have lockout regrets atm.... mopen was such an easy short
anyone else have that day that just shows how bad of a trader you are sometimes. Like I swear majority of my days are winning but that 1 bad day just kills me. If I can avoid that im unstoppable.
2/19 almost ruined everything LMAO
i like the journal
its good to keep track and keep yourself accountable, those days where you lose and you know you did bad and now you have to write them down and have them on record. Makes it so you cant run from it.
OH dang, I like that EOY pace
interesting
never seen that before
Good to look wide
my excel formula shit @sturdy wharf
I love excel
where I keep all my backtesting and journaling data
even per commodity
sum total rows 1-98a = /567D-A
nerd
I mean as long as you are consistent with size and risk .... you can't do much more.... always going to hit a bad day eventually for whatever reason
very true, I can reduce bad days if im not stupid tho and stick to my strat. I didnt stick to my strat on 2 trades on wednesday I held gold and copper longs for longer because you know gold, and then I got hit because gold was a little done doing the only up thing.
yup there is usually some diversion of strat on bad days
even if it is just as simple as overtrading imo
SO TRUE
vwap touch still on the cards
thats a good session!
yeah slowly getting there
will keep practising π appreciate the share!
i might make a combime / apex eval and only use it for this method when i get a bit more confident
you just made 1.5k how much more confidence do you need? lol
he wants 1.6
lol fair point... but no where near your skill or experience level with this... so for me I just fluked it today .... need a few days to confirm to myself I am ok with doing it this way
ive been doing this for years lol
Kindly advice where can I get the latest video on the premium price action
I'm curious about this too

@eager estuary
The newest vid
nice i saved that to watch that too while I do the school run in the morning π
π just joined for the 1 month free trial. I've got a trading Algo that takes webhooks from trading view + lix Algo alerts to trade with alpaca... I just don't have a good strategy yet π
Ty
school? like 6th grade school?
or like college school?
Me too I just joined and every time I watch those video I get confused even more
school like 8 year old
LOLLLL
I just want a nice and simple ''buy here make a bunch of money, sell here skip all the downside ' strategy π€£
dont we all
there are lots of spammers offering a signal service π
you can find them using luxalgo... but need to spend the time figuring out your trading style and setup !
ever since you issued me this 1.6 challenge @nocturne sigil it wont give me a trade π π
I've only been messing about with it for 3 days now so I'm sure I'll get there
might have to yolo it π
I'm also a bit limited because I don't trade myself I need my Algo to read alerts from luxalgo from a log
So more complicated strategies get even more complicated
ah so you are using a bot?
Working on it still but yes
can't help you with that but a few peeps using bots in here so it is obviously very possible!
I'm working on some cool ai projects for trading too and looking to buy a super computer this summer
There's a few 'option trading gurus' on YouTube..
sounds like quite a project !
I'd like to give my agent a playlist of strategies and have the bot create the strategy, backtest and report the results. Right now, I can do it, it my PC setup is far too weak
I'm also working on a browser agent that controls trading view to build luxalgo strategies, but again my PC is far too weak
Sounds like very interesting projects for sure!
hopefully can't upgrade the pc to copy eventually !
π§
dont trade that pair so no idea on the movements π
what did you mean "rate"?
bonita
yea out of 10
10 pips 10/10 , 9 pips woulda been 9/10
i mean if a new trader captures 10 pips on a trade howmuch you would rate it by ?/10
π€£it lines up nicely
hmmm, not sure, its a win
now rn
probably luck if it is a new trader π
you can ask other FX traders here #π±forex-chat
I count pips as racks because I trade with 1000x leverage
ikr there are no online right there
i got 1,480 ticks on the NQ today..... so π€·ββοΈ what do you rate me π
haha it does but it isn't
ok, but this is futures, not sure if anyone rates trades
never heard of that to be honest
I went backwards @nocturne sigil
failed 1.6 - this is a practice account just so you know π
can't be bothered to sit and wait for another trade to setup on this 12 ema Lingle π
probably conspired with @fair socket to get me to lower my profit so he can beat me later on the 12/10 ema weekly challenge π
See you guys tomorrow ! Going to take the evening off the charts and chill
laters
bring your charts to show-n-tell at school
lol
looks like there is an event tomorrow in announcements you might be interested in
thought you were leaving?
alerts went off on tv
now I am leaving as I have muted them all π
π
civ7>
huh?
I wanna ask you something
playing on pc π
sup
im still here
strat I posted is at +1k on the day so far if you took every one
I was finished by 8.00 though
nice

Very interesting.
what a comback
day's not over yet
More volatility tomorrow.
my stocks needed this.... dont say that....
Ok?
Nvidia results are now?
tomorrow
Ok
NQ close 2.25.25

Maybe you can help me out here, what is the purpose of if this? I know in Canada we can sign up with a ton of companies and get leveraged accounts by simply providing info about yourself and job without having to prove you can trade. So, do people do this because in the USA this isn't something offered?
Prop trading is offered in the USA
Is prop trading basically a leveraged account?
they send like 20 emails lol
great job!
thanks man
That low liquidity will wreck ya
yea, i hate trading asia but i was so excited to get my first topstep money!
π
Yes
I make some
Change @heady pelican In your strategy
Add ema 10/30/100/200
and higher lower signal
Ema 10 show shortes
Ema 30 short
Ema 100 longer
Ema 200 longest
In 1 min ema really show trend nice
When they go down ema 10 itβs under ema 30 itβs strong signal to go down price
When they go up ema 10 itβs upper than ema 30
When they tray to cross but didnβt cross trend stay the same
When they cross trend change but this u know
But I must learn when really enter like you bro
todays news
Good for oil vol
see if i can finally leave this DD today or end up deep in it again
whats silver on futures
i know gold is gc
SI for mini, SIL for micro
mmmm want to short ES and NQ
seems a cheap short
but will be good also if they break out the daily highs from here
forex?
trading usdjpy futures, the pair i trade on fx
ahh was looking at USD/EURO earlier today
but didnt take it
setup my charts last night to watch gbp/eur and cad
missed out on jpy haha
euro trade was a win too (not taken by me)
just monitoring FX as I never traded it before
i like FX i feel like i need to go back to it at some point
been dabbling in futures for awhile now
since like Nov
had payouts though so cant really complain
i dont think ill take my next payout so quick, i want to leave myself like a 5k buffer
good to spread out when possible .. especially if one market is sideways like NQ has been until recently
yeah I am building up too to a larger buffer
2k is too small risking say 400 on 10 micros
very nice!
first session in my funded acct
no nerves then... nice π
300 over 5 accounts :P?!
yep
nice!
surprised you traded at this time with the voume levels
So i have something for you guys but it might confuse you lol
what are Wednesdays for π
both charts same screen..
so you can still benefit from seeing both types of candles
hes switching it up lol
not gunna lie this session was not fun for me. i had to hold alot longer due to no volume and i was -400 at one point.
only on the 2 min for this low volume session
i also need to backtest if its worth just waiting until the ny open to trade
like caca does
ive always traded fx from like 5am and done by like 1pm max
it's definately worth it. low volume sucks
there are really good positions 45 mins before open and then 45 mins after
I always try to be in position around that time before the open if I can
If you will trade US indices, most of the volume/trending action is during NY. For the other futures, like FX, metals, commodities, LO has some.
silver and gold really good building up to the open i catch most of the trade pre-45 positioning and then riding it through open
thats good to know, think ill do what caca suggested awhile back do my FX till NY open then futures otherwise i just trade for the sake of trading if im on comp from 6am and waiting till 2:30pm to trade lol
Bias?
I want to trade it during NY am session
but from what it seems there is trenline that price could reject again now
just dont trade the middle π
yeah nah I am waiting.
Bro I got question what leverage u use and % of depo
nice close on ES there
wow what a move on ES
Morning
GM
GM chaps
morning
good morning everyone...
patiently waiting for NY open
do you trade the crypto market as well?
i don't, never tried my hand with crypto
you must be good with the stock market then?
just futures and fx I trade
Alright then
Sup guys
So in the Backtester, why would you pick Trailing, ATR, ticks, %?
Lemmi make this question less vague haha
What makes you pick ATR or ticks or % for SLs for example.
And more confusing, why does ATR SL give better results. 
ATR is new for me
not easy to trade this right now
might have to wait for open
got out of my short... shame
@zenith narwhal personal preference really, when in the backtester I tend to use ticks as I've always traded say FX with a hard 3-5pip sl and 20pip tp so I set the ticks accordingly.
ATR is good as its the average true range at that given time which checks the volatility on that given ticker at that moment in time. So having say ATR 1 means its kind of covering the volatility in the market.
Aaah like so
or you could have ATR 2 so thats double what the current volatility is in the market meaning its more conservative SL and not aggressive
Strat i have now is in an active position for pretty long.
But i've changed my sl from hard ticks to ATR and the results are lower MDD, higher profit.
So I was confused
But makes sense, ty
I really have to make this a full-time job. Fascinating as fk
@fair socket what about forcast for TP? π
that one is totally new
this is one I havent experimented with personally so I couldnt really comment on it, you'd have to just try it and experiment yourself and see what the backtester data yields and see which is best for your strategy
haha. I'll go back to cooking
π€
you get a good strategy, be sure to share it in https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1181429249744306216
ye i'm tweaking the one that I posted in there last time. Will do an updated post if i'm happy. π«‘
look forward to seeing the finished product π
Sessions Step conditions also confuses me a bit.
Step: All -> At all conditions there is a check for the Session time.
Step: 3(for example) -> Only at Step 3 there is a condition check for the time. If the other Steps are outside of the session time, that's fine.
Do I understand it correctly this way? (tried to check the library, but couldn't find details on session steps specifically)
Because sessions: Step 3 executes more trades than Step All. So that would make sense.
morning
Hello everyone. Welcome to DAY 3 of 5, let's trade wisely and remember the key tool of the business "PATIENCE". Happy trading.

as I took a long
before i left
and the wick from vwap high to vwap low destroyed my stop loss
Hahaha. You know I love seeing a SWING structure 
account repair time lol
Took only long trades today. Worked out very well.
got out of es as wife wants to go out. see you all tmrw. good luck with the rest of the day.
Ive been waiting for SPY to reverse on the 10 min...its proving me wrong
have agood day!
400s inbound
Mickys streaming LIVE! https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1178430832151638077

SPX position will need some adjustment if we keep going up. YM is helping to keep ES slow down.
that is an interesting chart
It is a Curve for the option position.
nice never seen that before
Crazy tradingview has those now lol
you can trade options on tradingview if you have a tradestation account
Good to know I have testy trade.
in Es and NQ shorts... make or break for profit or loss for the day
Yeah, it moved outside of that open range, Im not sure if we get the pushback I was looking for.
school run trade screwed up my day
stupid as it was in nice profit... should have moved sl up on my phone but got distracted
I took a loss on open, really did not see that low hold. Cartia was right, it held π
even a broken clock is right twice a day
please let that be me today
I would have taken that trade again and again and again
hope we get some push through
session vwap at 305, overnight vwap at 301
meh not convinced atm
21524 would be a nice short,
Nice long scalp on NQ
I mean looking at 4h one can argue that the market is targeting the LH at least to 21800ish. That would be the confirm, but who knows until then
meh might lock out for the day and take it on the chin... not feeling it today
good GC recovery
5min nq just printed that classic bullish candle by MA and we're above sessions vwap..
Probably safe to say that we are now in a confirmed LL towards a LH Or above.
I did not see that this morning. Looked very bearish
gold was nice already took profit
combine tho
wasn't an xfa / pa trade
sums up my day really
still in my shorts
Move down to VWAP should be nice
Pants here
hope so!
Possible scwnario
That is were the VWAP is
Only took long trades today
If it gets to VWAP that can be good entry
GC pulling back
trump speaking
yup
I got it

π‘
someone tell me this isn't a short
21396.25
I am talking myself out of it
lol
not a short
Haha, I think short to vwap
334 is around my initial TP target
thanks guys not feeling the markets today
good to hear some views π
21324 or 337. But buyers are really buying π
i mean you could have taken some longs
Compared what we have seen Not a real momentum today
idk why are you shorting
So its hard to pick
yes missed the nice longs
feel it is a cheap short and it is showing it can't get through that 396
yes i think so too
Closed SPX for small profit
i really wanted to buy Nvidia today... was hoping it would sell off
not pump up first
π
should have bought yesterday
yeah
i missed the lows
was hoping to get a second chance today
I can't buy Nvidia at this price pre earnings too much risk
yeah dont
hahaha trump "the EU was created to screw the US"
π
he isn't compeltely wrong... just love how blunt he is π
15 min candles are like a Piano
barcoding
i am out here
take a break from trading today
Almost touched the VWAP
GG guys
gg
that was a hard fought short lol
market will be unpredictable for earnings
yea, super hard.
appreciate everyone keeping me focused today π
was easierr to long... dont tell Cartia π
LFG
NQ and YM
yes baby
Done
Lets go back up now
Yeah, the key on that one was the LH candle
went outside for air
was 800 down today and finished 1.4k up
not the day I wanted but will take it
Nice π
going to lock out 4 of my accounts
will leave one open as I had regrets locking them all out yesterday later on lol
Nice 4H reject
But look at the garbage daily
