[surreal dust]

well even more now

glad I didn't lock them all

shame i didn't hold

[urban flint]

🙂

[surreal dust]

from the top

could have given it to Cartia

for xmas card

😅

[urban flint]

lol

That 4H candle is just saying let’s head down

[surreal dust]

wonder if we go up tomorrow on nvidia

and then down on Friday news

Friday is PCE right?

[urban flint]

I mean.. higher prices into more selling.

This is why I was not bullish this morning

[surreal dust]

honestly would be pretty funny if it broke 200's now and went down

when that didn't happen it threw my whole day

[urban flint]

We will

[surreal dust]

was so convinced that was the move

lol

[urban flint]

I know, me too. So strange when that happens on lower timeframes. It just catches my brain

[surreal dust]

fopr sure

[urban flint]

This would have been larger if we just broke that support right ahead instead

[surreal dust]

dont really care now as I made my min target of 1k from a negative position so I am chill it is a bonus now

[surreal dust]

i was considering holding as well... but I needed to bank profit

back in anyway with a smaller position so not all lost

[urban flint]

Yeah, I’m out I think. The best trades are around open, the rest is pretty slow

[surreal dust]

see if we get a wick to lows of the day

[surreal dust]

yeah there are good trades on offer later ... but slower than open for sure!

[urban flint]

True

Let’s see if we continue to hold, may get in if anything close under that OB and opening range

[surreal dust]

i mean if we lose 200 and close on 15m

I will add to my short or short again lol

[urban flint]

I was expecting a quick send to 21063

That was my open play, but it held

[surreal dust]

yeah that is good 058 was target when market opened if we had lost 200's

[urban flint]

Should be extremely quick and ultimately down to 21

We play very similarly 🙂

[surreal dust]

haha its true

its confluence

😂

Cartia needs tag teaming anyway

hit a vwap

mopen

ES is about to close a 15m

at the lows

dump time thanks ES

[agile jasper]

classic trump

[surreal dust]

lol

"EU can try"

😂

sounds like he is playing COD and baiting the otherside to capture his flag

[urban flint]

They will call this bluff imo. They actually have a plan in place for it 🙂

[surreal dust]

they are so disorganised

can never agree on anything

and that is just our government 😂

held that 200 pretty beautifully so far

took profit on my shorts

will wait for a loss or retest of that area for a long / short

nice OB there

[agile jasper]

lets go back to 21k

[surreal dust]

here we go

should have stayed in

making bad decisions today

not holding

still banking profit tho 😄

[urban flint]

Yup, there’s the open market play

[surreal dust]

beautiful short

see if we can keep under 200 now

oh there was a little gap

on the NQ

just saw it

from last night lol

get ready to short Microstrategy boys

btc at 84k

[spare bloom]

yeahit is dropping hard it was 85k like 1 min ago

[surreal dust]

think we will see 80k?

[urban flint]

Could not resist

[surreal dust]

watching ETH as well... i have a target for 1900... but that will be absolutely brutal

[spare bloom]

mm idk maybe 82k for now

[surreal dust]

you can tell me cofidence is low today

trading 5 micros mostly all day

lol

i got a good entry tho 🙂

[spare bloom]

i am just chilling

[surreal dust]

dam btc tagged 83200

[spare bloom]

crypto nowadays just follows nq

[severe solar]

haha damn you guys trade all day huh?

will be live in a little over an hour so lets get it

[spare bloom]

almost 85k now strong bounce

nvda dumped hard it seems

sub 130

[surreal dust]

20991 - PDL ?

[spare bloom]

maybe

[surreal dust]

should be careful what I ask for

😂

[spare bloom]

nasty rugpull on nq

[surreal dust]

dam missed short on silver

[spare bloom]

guess everyone took their profits

[surreal dust]

had US30 on my screen

[spare bloom]

waiting for earnings

[surreal dust]

going to be bad if nq loses 108

es and nq at support levels atm :/

[spare bloom]

idk prolly time for a pullback

[surreal dust]

maybe that is it for today where we are

alot of M7's are at lows of day

so going to be interesting if they dont hold

[spare bloom]

i think it is done for now

earnings will see what will happen

[urban flint]

That was always the play

[surreal dust]

man silver had such a good setup for short

neglected my baby today

[urban flint]

Hehe

[spare bloom]

it is the plan when you are not short

[surreal dust]

only 1070 ticks

Short bros smashed Cartia today

@spare bloom are you not on hols ???

Or is your hols trolling me and Qaction 😂

if so... i want to be paid 😄

[spare bloom]

yeah i am it is national holidays

[urban flint]

Hehe, touché

[spare bloom]

plenty of fireworks going on

[urban flint]

He got us in open through

[surreal dust]

oh i thought you were on a longer holiday

[surreal dust]

yeah we let him jab us a little to tickle the chin before we setup for the knock out 😎

[spare bloom]

nothing changed i said it is bearish until next month but market likes to play games you have to know that

dont fight the market

[surreal dust]

let us have this Cartia

is a holiday

[urban flint]

Haha

Yes please let us have it haha

[surreal dust]

i added 1 contract

i have 6 now

[spare bloom]

i am not even trading guys

[surreal dust]

😅

have fomo of Qactions 1 mini lol

[urban flint]

Side note, I’ve been thinking for a while to to place some limit orders at like 12k 10k for btc etc just in case for some reason you would get a glitch or flash crash. Kind of what happened with Berkshire.

[surreal dust]

PDL low would take us to 1300 ticks? crazy for a no news day really

[surreal dust]

can do that with BTC or alt coins 😂 just joined a dodgy exchange

Look at silver 😦 it is punishing me because I didn't trade it today

[urban flint]

Right, I heard someone made a lot of money on that

Or short a stable coin 🙂

In the event the peg is lost you get serious payout

[surreal dust]

yeah just set spot limit buys really low down at good areas and wait for market crashes on alts lol

[spare bloom]

arent you green for the day why are you complaining

[tribal sapphire]

83360 on BTC was crazy

[urban flint]

It’s just the beginning

[surreal dust]

https://tenor.com/view/doctor-who-ncuti-gatwa-fifteenth-doctor-boom-ooh-i-am-having-a-day-gif-8746319993035756039

I am green but I should be super hulk green ... that is what I am complaing about 😂

[tribal sapphire]

🤣

[urban flint]

I posted in the crypto chat 3 weeks ago and asked if the LH on daily was a problem. lol. It’s exactly what happened last time from 68k

[surreal dust]

wish i was in a mini argggh

[agile jasper]

21k bring it down

[tribal sapphire]

Man what a day

Came down went up coming back down what a rollercoaster

[surreal dust]

please give me PDL....

NQ gods

[urban flint]

It will

[spare bloom]

if nvdia got good earnings might rally hard after market

[surreal dust]

pinky promise

[nocturne sigil]

👀

[surreal dust]

this is wht I dont lock all all my accounts now

maybe i should only do 50%

from now on actually

[urban flint]

This is the way I traded 15 years ago and it still is the easiest way to trend in a strong trend. Taking short / long following ema 11

Target low

[surreal dust]

@heady pelican you are outdated..... its all about the 11 ema now

[urban flint]

It’s like eating the market

Any pull up to Ema and bam enter

[surreal dust]

Lingle was teaching me his ema trading crossover that he does..... still practising

[urban flint]

There has to be a million bots in the world just doing that trade

[surreal dust]

i need some doing it for me please 🙏

have to do it on apex tho... dont think topstep like bots

[urban flint]

You can with anything. It just require some programming

[surreal dust]

i do not have that skill

[urban flint]

I’ll dm you, making a reverse cartia bot

[surreal dust]

LOL

[urban flint]

Should work well for us contrarian cartias

[surreal dust]

he will love that

i took profit and opened a new short

[urban flint]

It was getting a bit extended hehe

[surreal dust]

yeah thought I would bank

opened a mini this time tho

[agile jasper]

AHAHAHAHAHAHA

[spare bloom]

but you are the indicator

[surreal dust]

not anymore

we have AI'ed you

[urban flint]

lol

Lux tools are so good.

[surreal dust]

looks like it freaked out lol

[urban flint]

Yep, nothing stopping this. Check 4H

[spare bloom]

it is just typical manipulation before earnings it wont be like this everytime

[surreal dust]

glad I closed took profit now.... as when I reopened the short it was a bigger size 😄

[spare bloom]

very rarely it is that clean under an ema

[surreal dust]

you can't fight us Cartia.... we outnumber you to the infinite now with @urban flint 's bots

[urban flint]

Touched my tp

[spare bloom]

you dont fight an indicator

[surreal dust]

so you surrender 😏

[urban flint]

On 1min it is if a strong trend and break of support/resistance

[spare bloom]

guess it is long time then

[surreal dust]

dont you dare

[urban flint]

Haha

[surreal dust]

[agile jasper]

[heady pelican]

i got a pretty big hole to dig myself out of with these funded accts. i only have $450 DD Left lol

[sturdy wharf]

werent you up 1300 across the board earlier today?

[sturdy wharf]

yeah I probably should have

When I start off the day down I know it tilts me so i'm more interested in pushing the days I start up.

[heady pelican]

i sure was. Picture perfect example of being greedy and fucking myself.

[urban flint]

Try micro. Don’t try to revenge trade. Seems like a big loss unless you have a 100k account

[heady pelican]

it was a big loss. i will try and recover it in the morning at open. alot of my problem was i lost alot in the asia market with low volume

[wild gyro]

Asia chopps you up, believe me I know.

[urban flint]

Gold heading down

[fair socket]

todays news

[surreal dust]

lets see

[fair socket]

I've had a shocker all week with NQ lol

may not trade till next week

[surreal dust]

news tomorrow too

[fair socket]

news today as well at 1:30. Gone from a great payout last week to a red week this week 😂

[surreal dust]

been a real mix of PA ... can easily end up in red this week just from being unlucky

[fair socket]

yeah ive been unlucky then been some fire trades after i stop trading, yesterdays sell around 5ish was good

and ive missed the earlier in the week drops by getting stopped out before it hitting my target lol

need to try claw these accounts back risking 100 a trade at moment

3 micros

[surreal dust]

was thinkingg of nq short too

didnt take it tho

[fair socket]

gonna take me out now anyway for BE

be nice to test the vwap

i blame my mrs for my bad trading, shes got monitors in other room now and big desk and always mithering me LOL

she moved in Friday and ive had a shocker trading this week haha

[surreal dust]

NQ scalp

[surreal dust]

they are the worse... always bothering you when you are trying to concentrate the most

i shut my office door yesterday because if it wasn't the wife it was the kids!!

[fair socket]

haha tell me about it, shes in the office today so might actually profit 😂

[surreal dust]

caught the bottom of God?

Gold

😅

[surreal dust]

dont tell her that ....... or do if you want a longer period of silence 😂

[fair socket]

LOL could be a good plan

[surreal dust]

done on gold played out

[surreal dust]

@severe solar thanks for the stream yesterday - where can i find the video to rewatch some of it? Thanks

[fair socket]

you can find it here -> https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1344461003492036760

[lament spindle]

GM all

[surreal dust]

tyvm

[fair socket]

no problem 🙂

[fair socket]

morning!

[lament spindle]

My floating PnL is finally green for the first time this week 😄

[fair socket]

Haha my PnL is 6 foot under at the moment

Worst week I’ve had this year 🤣

But the week isn’t over yet 👀

[surreal dust]

GM

[lament spindle]

get that money we can do it

[errant meadow]

Hi everyone! I hope we are all making progress and that no one is upset about the recent decline in most coins, as I shared the information days ago before it happened.

[surreal dust]

me too

[fair socket]

I’d like NQ to test the vwap

[surreal dust]

loads of gaps on m7 charts

[surreal dust]

daily vwap?

[fair socket]

Not checked 7m chart. My TV being so slow lately

[surreal dust]

Mag 7 sorry is what I meant.... Nvidia, Apple, Amzon, Tesla, Microsoft etc

all of them to the downside

guessing wil be filled some time today

[fair socket]

I’d like to see NQ go to 250

But this week hasn’t gone my way 🤣

[surreal dust]

yeah thinking down and up to 250 tbh

[fair socket]

That’s my thoughts but who knows

[surreal dust]

or maybe and then down... dont like the gaps in the m7 stocks....

literally all of them

surrpised NQ doesnt have a gap

new gold scalp

[fair socket]

Milking gold

When I traded gold on FX it was like catching knifes. Eventually I got rekt

[surreal dust]

yeah got dam vwap tho too

[surreal dust]

have to be careful

I always check silver first tho

before I trade either pair

if they are going opposite I am more cautious

[lament spindle]

yeh my biggest loses been on gold, usually too afraid to enter when i see the opportunity and when i have entered, ive got it wrong

[fair socket]

like me on NQ this week 🤦🏻‍♂️

[heady pelican]

blah... time to dig out of a -1400 hole 😆

[fair socket]

im in that hole too LOL

[heady pelican]

this is the Epitome of being greedy!

[fair socket]

yeah i let some 1k trades run into be yesterday for being greedy

over 5 accounts too -.-

then finished the day in red

[heady pelican]

i had 10k banked between 5 accts. Now i'm -1400 lol

[fair socket]

me yesterday, i had 5k banked on 1 trade then end of day finished nearly -1.7k (-8.5k) over 5 accounts lol, the joys of trading

todays not going much better ahah ill be back to combines again soon

[heady pelican]

lol i just woke up so im refreshed and ready to battle

[fair socket]

ive got like 4 trades left at risking 100 each (maybe like 1 micro LOL)

not that fussed though really as had a 5 figure payout so still up even if i gotta re do 5 combines again ☠️

[heady pelican]

thats always bonus

[fair socket]

lesson learnt not to be greedy, should be happy with 300-500 a day over 5 accounts

not be aiming for thousands per account

[heady pelican]

yea once i get out of this hole that will be my goal

[fair socket]

we got this 🙏🏻

Hello 👋🏻

[heady pelican]

500 a day x5 days is $2500. 2500x5 accts is 12.5K a week 12.5k - 50% = 6.25k payout a week

[fair socket]

yeah theres no need to be greedy

but its easier said than done

[heady pelican]

i agree lol

[fair socket]

SL is +30 now. Will trail it if it drops more

[heady pelican]

i'm doing 5x Apex evals, so i have to lock in quick profits cause i dont want the trailing drawdown to fuck me

[fair socket]

never tried Apex due to that trrailing DD - never looked into it much but heard a few horror stories of it

[surreal dust]

we might cross over at some point as I am long from much earlier haha

[surreal dust]

not so bad once you pass

into funded

[fair socket]

you've jinx'd me now LOL

[surreal dust]

but it is annoying to pass with them that rule... that is why I do news day

[fair socket]

damn you haha

[surreal dust]

for Apex evals

just pass in one day

[fair socket]

Thats entirely upto you and your technical analysis

[surreal dust]

that vwap is holding it down really well.. considered closing a few times

[heady pelican]

ive heard great things about Apex except for there trailing DD

[fair socket]

shot up since you said you was long

took me out

[heady pelican]

bounced right off the bottom of that OB

[fair socket]

prob drop now it took me out to sum up this week

[heady pelican]

its gotta come down and get that Massive liquidity from NVDA Earnings yesterday at some point

[fair socket]

hopefully ill be joining the ride down but if mon/tue anything to go by i prob wont

i was calling 600 and 21k and got taken out before it dropped

[surreal dust]

haha sorry man

[fair socket]

silly market maker 😂

[surreal dust]

i wish ... would chase after @spare bloom stops 😄

[fair socket]

ahahah

[spare bloom]

nice sl you got there

[heady pelican]

i'd lock in atleast 500 of it

[surreal dust]

dont make me bring out the bots

[surreal dust]

going to move some up

[heady pelican]

how many accts you copying?

[surreal dust]

2 at a time

lol

I am a copy coward 😂

[heady pelican]

get to 5 and get 500 a day and call it a day lol

[surreal dust]

yeah i am trying to push through my last couple combines this week

[spare bloom]

i am done by the time you get them out

[surreal dust]

@urban flint will fade you

lol he also changed his name

see... he has your number

[surreal dust]

I am thinking about it tbh... might do 3 on 500 usd a day and then the 2 I will use as longer holds... see what wins out after a month

[spare bloom]

it is impossible since he got in the trade first

you cant fade a move that didnt exist

[surreal dust]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-michael-scott-steve-carell-anythings-possible-limitless-gif-16382417

[spare bloom]

but yeah nvdia carrying nq

ez longs if you took them

[surreal dust]

i did

so you need to go short

[spare bloom]

idk about the open tho people could just take their profits adn call it a day

[surreal dust]

although I will be going short later too 😄

[surreal dust]

will be an interesting open

all the gaps on m7

have you seen them?

[spare bloom]

yeah

[surreal dust]

or maybe we leave them

for tomorrows news

[spare bloom]

maybe 22k today then friday cools off

[surreal dust]

that would be nice

also follow the friday sell off pattern anyway into the weekend

[agile jasper]

nah more downside

[surreal dust]

see what I did to your vwap Caca

i just took it

now I own it

on NQ

nearly done

[spare bloom]

he only needs to do a "caca" to bring to vwap

[glad stirrup]

gold and silver are killing me mate pfffff

anyway

[surreal dust]

Gold is in a s**** area right now tbh

[spare bloom]

people are scared since it broke the weekly pivot

[surreal dust]

and silver isn't much better

[spare bloom]

below 2900 is just shorting

[surreal dust]

haven't checked but i think we lost major levels on gold and silver

for bearish downtrend

but I only scalp them anyway

[glad stirrup]

yeah I usually hedge them was 1.1k up on 2956 and didn't close. Now plummeted

-3k open pnl trying to see If should sell parallel

till 2867

pick more layers

lower

but how low this is my problem

got caught to a trap

[surreal dust]

i dont think Gold is a trade anymore for me

i trade the low to 2904

and i dont think I will go in anymore today

silver remains to be soon

[glad stirrup]

yeah makes sense

[surreal dust]

keeps rejecting

at this current high on 30m

but every NY open has made both silver and gold move ALOT (last 6-7 days that I have been watching)

so should be interesting today

[heady pelican]

good start to the day!

[surreal dust]

oh nice!

[fair socket]

me today ha

cant risk much though as im nearly at max DD

[agile jasper]

we showing off now?

[quiet turret]

Good morning everyone.

[restive raven]

Granted im trading paper rn cause i failed my eval lol

[agile jasper]

reset

[sturdy wharf]

then buy 4 more

[restive raven]

Nah im buying a new one cause i was on tradovate and not using topstep x

[sturdy wharf]

TopstepX free tick charts is PEAK

[restive raven]

and no daily loss limit on topstepx

i didnt know that until yesterday

[agile jasper]

they had that for months LOL

[restive raven]

yeah i had no idea. hadnt traded an eval in months lol

[severe solar]

hahaha oh @restive raven

🙂

[restive raven]

^ this guy told me

[tribal sapphire]

My friend got Top Step yesterday I kinda like it very easy to use

[heady pelican]

1200 lot at 6002 on ES

[gloomy quail]

Hello everyone. Welcome to DAY 4 of 5, the day before the last working day of the month. Time to tidy up that positions.

[urban flint]

Move up to 21602?

[restive raven]

Yeah topstep is the cheapest with the easiest rules

sure you can get an apex acct for like 15 bucks but that live trailing DD is horrible

[sturdy wharf]

also the not paying out and the scummy rules

[restive raven]

that too yeah

[sturdy wharf]

@severe solar put me on to topstep like last year, I use them and MFFU

[restive raven]

he might be a secret affiliate 🤣

[sturdy wharf]

I was using Apex before that trailing drawdown single handedly set me back in trading

[tribal sapphire]

I got approved on apex for live now but after payout i am switching to topstep

[restive raven]

same here. passed my first funded acct on apex but it was complete luck

then immediately blew it up

[heady pelican]

only good thing about Apex is the 20 accts

[sturdy wharf]

how many of us are actually able to handle 20 funded accounts with intraday drawdown

I can barely handle 1

[tribal sapphire]

exactly but I am not going for 20 qnyways

[heady pelican]

just think of it as one and copy trade

[tribal sapphire]

anyways*

[sturdy wharf]

still you lose 1 thats 20 lost

[restive raven]

thats why you dont buy 20 at the same time

you build up. once youre in solid profit on 1 acct, then you buy another

[tribal sapphire]

i guess it also depends on trading on personal level

[sturdy wharf]

I can see that being viable.

without trailing intraday

imagine a firm saying, "you shouldnt let your winners run"

wheat and soy opening down again, fun seems to be over for longs

[restive raven]

Apex would be so good if they at the very least did the drawdown based on closed trades and not trades that went into profit and then hit your SL

[sturdy wharf]

so true

[tribal sapphire]

I agree with that

[agile jasper]

vwap at 284

[sturdy wharf]

300$ stop its up 200$ then comes down to your stop down 500$ is literally not how trading works LMAO

[agile jasper]

touch it before jumping up

[restive raven]

literally. it's like Biden wanting to tax unrealized capital gains LOL

[tribal sapphire]

Jumping around today huh

[sturdy wharf]

that shit pmo

I know you didnt sell and they could be worth 0 tomorrow but we will tax you like its worth it now

joke

[restive raven]

absolute joke

You know.... what is EVEN BETTER!

more winners the better !

ok now I am really done now

[tribal sapphire]

VWap on 198

[surreal dust]

locking out

waiting for news tomorrow

[agile jasper]

nearly at the vwap

[surreal dust]

Will check in later... need to go pick my kid up

only 20 minutes late

sure it will be fine

😂

[quiet turret]

Loss free position on SPX

[tribal sapphire]

second done for 400

done for the day

[tribal sapphire]

What is this?? A bot?

[tribal sapphire]

[surreal dust]

well he was not happy lol

[quiet turret]

SPX option position

[surreal dust]

but on the positive was much quicker in and out of school with no one there 😂

[surreal dust]

nice!

[surreal dust]

not entirely sure how to read this....

[tribal sapphire]

WOW poor kid

[surreal dust]

did you take profit on the calls / puts and then left a call open?

[surreal dust]

poor Dad !!!

[tribal sapphire]

i have no idea how options work will learn eventually

if thats how you put it

[surreal dust]

will request my topstep payout after tomorrow .... will wait for PCE news and hopefully not get rekt 😄

[quiet turret]

Green is the profit zone. I am safe for 50 points down and only profit up side, on ES which is SPX. These options expire end of the day. So end of the day I keep the money and whoever bought the options from me loose.

[surreal dust]

looks like Crypto held ok

[tribal sapphire]

i will be able get my first payout next week from apex

[surreal dust]

this is leveraged right? 1 contract ?

[quiet turret]

Yes

[surreal dust]

interesting same day expiry

[quiet turret]

Yes daily expiry on SPX

[surreal dust]

is there good return on that? I thought options work on a set margin price depending on the price

will have to check that out

[quiet turret]

So sell options every day and if they expire in my favor then I make the money. It is like a casino. Option buyers gamble and we take a position as a s a seller (casino). Seller wins 70% of the time.

and there are many adjustments I can do with the loosing position.

[quiet turret]

Yes it can be very good return.

[surreal dust]

cheap calls and puts at todays high and lows tho

are you positioning pre market or during ?

[quiet turret]

After market opens

[surreal dust]

ah it is not open pre market right?

[quiet turret]

I can do ES options after or pre markets

As time passes by option prices decay and which is in my (option seller's) favor.

Beautiful short scalp on NQ

[surreal dust]

interesting

i have done options but like 3 or 6 months

never on the day

will check that out... thanks for the info @quiet turret

[heady pelican]

ive never understood options. i dont know what contract dates and strike prices and how the greeks affect the prices

[nocturne sigil]

all you need to know is Gamma-Ray-Straddle-Calls

[heady pelican]

wtf is that lol

[surreal dust]

old german porn

if you say it fast enough

maybe 😅

[surreal dust]

actually quite interesting

have you done a stream on this ?

eh

@nocturne sigil

[nocturne sigil]

naw, I have no clue on options
Doesnt really float my boat
Seems like the most challenging instrument to trade
The one that has the best odds to rekt anyone

[surreal dust]

only found bad YT ones so far

[urban flint]

Not a bad Morning

3win one loss

[nocturne sigil]

Winner in my book

[urban flint]

I really though we were going to take a leg up, but then we opened lol

[surreal dust]

fair enough!

[surreal dust]

very nice

[surreal dust]

yeah me too i was waiting for 21420 area to short tbh

never got that... and I was in a long too try to get there initially

news event should be interesting tomorrow

[nocturne sigil]

I dont think im smart enough for options

theta beta

[urban flint]

https://tenor.com/view/fadsfantasy-gif-22691121

[surreal dust]

[surreal dust]

I am sure you are haha

[nocturne sigil]

hahaha

Im sure if i study this a bit, i would be good.

maybe one day

[surreal dust]

yeah I plan to do some on a daily timeframe... but later in the year once I get my accounts in a bugger

buffer

[agile jasper]

[nocturne sigil]

OMG
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

50/50

right?

[surreal dust]

Well trump just announced an extra 10% tariff on China

Not sure if that has come through or not yet

Out of the house at the moment so not on the charts !

Saw it on Twitter

[quiet turret]

1 Hr chart

[surreal dust]

Will be awful if tomorrow is the same

Although I think we are still above year open no ?

[agile jasper]

today's been good

[surreal dust]

Haha good for us bad for market

5 days of hard bleed

Although we did bounce in some of those days tbf

Great thing about being a day trader is market direction doesn’t matter

Although I always prefer up 😅

[agile jasper]

i like it when it dumps

[fair socket]

This weeks put me back on combines for being greedy. The greed got the better of me after my big payout 🤣

[heady pelican]

dont feel too bad i joined the club with you lol

[fair socket]

Literally 🤣🤣🤣

Wasn’t happy with 1k on 5 accounts. I let them go break even then take losses

[nocturne sigil]

You guys and gals still scalping NQ today?

[heady pelican]

yep

[agile jasper]

too late in the day for that

[fair socket]

I’m coming back tomorrow fresh headed or maybe leave it till Monday

Seen as its end of month and Friday

I blow 5 combined tomorrow im on strike 🤣

[short valve]

How do I start forex……..

[fair socket]

Download mt4/mt4 and TradingView and create an account with a brokerage of your choice. Do your research first before choosing a broker depending on your location

I believe my colleague already gave you a playlist to check out 🙂

[short valve]

Yeah, a YT video

[quiet turret]

Yes

[nocturne sigil]

nice, how many ticks so far? net

[quiet turret]

55 points

No clear direction.

[nocturne sigil]

Impressive for a day like today

nice job man !!!!!

[short valve]

Wow, nice

[short valve]

Can you be my coach

[agile jasper]

hogs down 3% @sturdy wharf

[agile jasper]

#💬hangout message

[quiet turret]

Hourly chart. No decision.

Good possiblity of move up higher from here

Hourly close will give more confermation

[urban flint]

Feel like the money is in btc at this time. Short

[quiet turret]

Had a beautiful long scalp

[low flax]

Same with US30. Yesterday was way worse. I cried broken to my pillow after it was done.(jk not jk)

[quiet turret]

One more long scalp

[nocturne sigil]

OMG
HAHAHA

[quiet turret]

Adding up more point

[low flax]

These intraday swings seem to be happening premarket. Open 15 range, open 30 range and IB 60 min. Violent and legit unforgiving…but I think I might be getting the hang of it.

[nocturne sigil]

Keep going until it tells you no more

[quiet turret]

@nocturne sigil does great at coaching through daily live

[nocturne sigil]

for me, i was scared shitless, I loaded the boat up and tried to scalp on EU
didnt go as planned

had too many lots, and was scared shitless

LOLLLL

[nocturne sigil]

who?

what'd I miss?

[quiet turret]

Some one looking for a coach

[nocturne sigil]

let me know if you find one, I need a good one myself

[quiet turret]

Bulss may win

We are above hourly candle. finally.

FVG at 067. VWAP at 138 good target

[nocturne sigil]

No idea where this is going?

[surreal dust]

Oh gosh

[fair socket]

live for you soon LOL

least i had one payout and failed

[surreal dust]

so you need to blow the xfa before the 4th payout

and restart

😂

[surreal dust]

failed for non compliance?

[fair socket]

thats the one LOL

every 4th payout ill fail lol

[surreal dust]

yup lol

I think that is crap what they have done tbh

way too fast lol

@agile jasper is probably screwed too

[agile jasper]

he's not

LOL

[surreal dust]

I guess you can just blow the live

and go back to xfa 🤦‍♂️

[agile jasper]

you can get done for that

[surreal dust]

they should let you have more live accounts to compensate

like 2 lives
