[surreal dust]

[surreal dust]

oh specially for IF... i can barely reduce my carbs down let alone go IF right now 😂

[nocturne sigil]

👀

[agile jasper]

very famous restaurant apparently

[surreal dust]

well I am getting more and more tempted to short the NQ and ES boys.... the longer it hangs around here lol

[nocturne sigil]

[cinder pulsar]

nneed to step back - success earlier on longs but back where i started with failed longs and shorts the market needs to make its mind up

[nocturne sigil]

Yeah, wait this out

[surreal dust]

my God you got so fat you ate one of your own fingers 🤦‍♂️

[surreal dust]

we are in chop city zone.... best to wait for it to pick its direction now imo

[nocturne sigil]

Yes I heard of this

[agile jasper]

ahahahaha

[surreal dust]

where they eat your finger? 😛

[nocturne sigil]

And then some

[cinder pulsar]

agree

gold might be a short soonm

[surreal dust]

will take a look

[cinder pulsar]

near YDH

[surreal dust]

hmm off the PDH from yesterday too

that looks pretty strong tho

back tested the weekly levels on gold too

[cinder pulsar]

yep, waiting for lux signal

[cinder terrace]

When would market make its mind ? I think there will be some retracment for asx200 and sp500

[cinder pulsar]

my 3 min strategy not thre today except on gold

since 0800

i am sure it will work out as day goes on

[surreal dust]

just too much chop now

might range here all day at this rate

[cinder pulsar]

its in the middle

[surreal dust]

although if we touch the wick highs again on ES or NQ

i will short it

as it is a cheap short

easy invalidation too

we will see

[nocturne sigil]

tough

[surreal dust]

got to pick up the other kid from school soon

[surreal dust]

is there something wrong with me that I find charts (Mickys in particular) so dam sexy 🤣 do I need to talk to someone.... is that an actual thing 🤣

[nocturne sigil]

Should we tag @upper oracle multiple times now?

[cinder pulsar]

the mkt has told us where the top is and the bottom just need it to revisit one them then we are off and running on the ES and NQ

[nocturne sigil]

[upper oracle]

[nocturne sigil]

HAHAHAHAHA

[nocturne sigil]

[cinder pulsar]

what a disaster chart

nq says lets pretend to go up.... draw in some more retail buyers... then 3 mins later msash down thru their stops....

smash

[surreal dust]

did Caca steal your slot 😄

[nocturne sigil]

Zoom out
bigger picture

[surreal dust]

he needs money to buy his finger back

[nocturne sigil]

he has it somewhere, where th sun dont shine

👀

🍑

[cinder pulsar]

my chart was NQ but take the point

it looks same as 3m ES

[nocturne sigil]

3m shows lower highs and lows

👀

interesting

maybe ill take a shot at this

1m fib?

[cinder pulsar]

NQ could be about to make a HH

short to the low

lets see what it does at top

[dim nimbus]

Am new here

[nocturne sigil]

im thinking, let me see

[cinder pulsar]

although been thinking about short it it fails at top

[surreal dust]

ok why does your trend line thin

i want that

mine looks so fat

[nocturne sigil]

disable that

"show pattern zones"

[surreal dust]

?

[surreal dust]

😄

[nocturne sigil]

[surreal dust]

I know this stupid Es / NQ is going to pump or dump as soon as I have to go get my last child

https://tenor.com/view/rage-gif-24341837

[nocturne sigil]

yup

[cinder pulsar]

what 48% OB looks like in bookmap

[surreal dust]

nice liquidity up there

[cinder pulsar]

gold nearly back at PDH

yep plenty of liq

[surreal dust]

ok bbl got to get little legs

[cinder pulsar]

NQ back at highs should have stuck with longs mmm

bookmap did not help with this as was up and down as well

strength in the NQ jsut cruised through 780 with 103

[nocturne sigil]

5m Neos said bull since bell

[cinder pulsar]

3m eno says bull since 1045

neo

so why i ask myslef am I not long - been watching gold too much

[nocturne sigil]

[cinder pulsar]

[fluid gull]

Kinda choppy rn
Let’s see how 6000 reacts

[nocturne sigil]

[fluid gull]

Watchout at RTY

[cinder pulsar]

demo account v-positive ... cash account v-negative typical but no surprise today as demo was traded before 0800 and cash after

[turbid musk]

I added moving averages. It helps with fake outs 😅

I only traded the leap today

But nice PA again

[nocturne sigil]

Scammer removed

[cinder pulsar]

Nq looks like long

take that back

[agile jasper]

not as good as mine

but what goes up also needs to come back down 😂

[surreal dust]

meh

missed my short entry cause I was out

sucks

[cinder pulsar]

here it comes again

[urban flint]

So that coin flip, did it land on 50/50 or do not trade @upper oracle

Still no trades here

It’s working on upside, no confirm yet on both es and Nq

[cinder pulsar]

took a tight stop on gold.. a looser stop would have been ok shirt on nq but think it will go the way of all others...

[urban flint]

Nq is close to breakup.

[turbid musk]

I made mistake trading before NFP now I write and put paper on wall about days to avoid

[urban flint]

Eth is worth a long

[turbid musk]

Ah 😲

[fluid gull]

Wat just happened

[turbid musk]

Ya it was random

[fluid gull]

News?

[cinder pulsar]

nq in 70 pt range

[vapid gust]

-_- stupid ahh ninjatrader didn't execute my sl

[nocturne sigil]

[cinder pulsar]

although this could be a Lh in the sequence

[vagrant plank]

Apple and Alibaba’s AI rollout in China delayed by Trump’s trade war - FT $AAPL $BABA

[cinder pulsar]

[surreal dust]

just lost all respect for you

[cinder pulsar]

happy trading for those who are enjoying today

[turbid musk]

Trading times are very tiny. Wish there were more opportunities and market moves fast 24/7

[cinder pulsar]

quick reflections on the day with my luxalgo stra on 3 min. worked well for 3 out of 3 pre 0400 then pretty poor after the open. Will persevere with this tomorrow of it i get fed up with xbox then back to this after lucnh to see if a recovery is possible.

[sturdy wharf]

[nocturne sigil]

[sudden whale]

Okay

[surreal dust]

my short playing out now

🤷‍♂️

dam school runs

[nocturne sigil]

yeah
as soon as im out, it goes

😡

[surreal dust]

haha at least you got some

i got none

but sticking to my discpline for last two weeks and only trading higher quality setups

so only 1-3 trades a day mostly atm

only taken one today

[fair socket]

quality over quantity

[nocturne sigil]

That’s good
Roughest thing is sticking to your rules. But once you do, rinse and repeat

Clock in
Clock out

[turbid musk]

The day before NFP burned many times

Yesterday and tomorrow are day before

[urban flint]

Still no trade

Es close to edge down and Nq looks to lose momentum

[nocturne sigil]

yeah, so true

[nocturne sigil]

Do you watch anything else?
Like I watch FX pairs as well

[turbid musk]

I have alert for EURUSD for another strategy for Asia and London

[nocturne sigil]

Yes, I like EU as well, big daddy

I feel FX is much safer, but much slower

SLOOOWWWWW

[urban flint]

I do, I look at my stocks. I just went through forex

[urban flint]

AMD caught my eye yesterday, but already in Nvidia

[nocturne sigil]

nice

[turbid musk]

Yeah watching BTCUSD too 😌

[nocturne sigil]

AMD good, big name, not going anywhere

[surreal dust]

yeah trying to make it less intensive and skip the over trading 🙂

[urban flint]

Super proud for not taking a single trade here. In the past I would have been tempted but strict rules on 15/5 min trades

[nocturne sigil]

yup
nice
one thing to shut it down for whole day and walk away, but the hardest is watching the charts and waiting, and you are strong enough to not take a trade that is not in your game plan

🏆

[upper oracle]

Well, that was stressful

[nocturne sigil]

ANDDDDDD??????????????????????

[urban flint]

Tell us

[nocturne sigil]

spill it!

[upper oracle]

Next interview is on the 26th

[urban flint]

In the past this could have been a loosing day

[nocturne sigil]

come on man, a 3rd?

im out

[upper oracle]

yeah, a third

but

[nocturne sigil]

nicely done

[upper oracle]

I smashed the tests

[nocturne sigil]

[upper oracle]

Get a tour etc

[fair socket]

[turbid musk]

Congratulations 🎊 👏

[upper oracle]

[urban flint]

Wendy’s?

[nocturne sigil]

Exactly

FUCK YEAH!!!

[urban flint]

Well done whatever it is! Nice job

[nocturne sigil]

Nice man

No tax on tips

[upper oracle]

so, what did I miss?

chart looks shit

[nocturne sigil]

dont avoid my question
#📈futures-stocks-chat message

[upper oracle]

what question?

[nocturne sigil]

so does that mean we dont see you around here?

[upper oracle]

nah, will definitely stick around haha

also, I may have passed the first one, but if I screw up I might not get the job after all

and regardless, I will keep trading privately too cuz I'm addicted

[nocturne sigil]

makes sure you trade you dont use your personal trades on your companies account, youll be fired for getting rekt

[upper oracle]

imagine💀

[nocturne sigil]

HAHAHAHAHA

[upper oracle]

also, maybe I might need your help. They will send me a Task next week that I'll have to complete and present at my 2nd one.

Don't know what it is yet though

[nocturne sigil]

hhhmmm what kind of help?

GIFS help?

meme?

emoji?

[upper oracle]

All of it of course! What do you think

[nocturne sigil]

i think they will give you a scenario of a long term goal, and they will ask you what steps you would take to achieve it

[agile jasper]

buy low sell high

[nocturne sigil]

or this

[gaunt moat]

poetry for a ranging market: ochre egyptians, gathing figs, every now and then, goose a red-ass monkey.

[nocturne sigil]

ok

LOLLLLLLLL

[upper oracle]

Would be glad if that's it, but it seems too little for the amount of time between the start of the task and the interview

[gaunt moat]

too high brow for this crowd?

[nocturne sigil]

🤔

[nocturne sigil]

who knows, im too old for the rat race again

been there done that

bye

LOL

[turbid musk]

[upper oracle]

Quick question. Would you kiss me?

Like, if I asked you to

If I told you to?

[surreal dust]

[turbid musk]

Yeah 😅

[upper oracle]

@surreal dust passed the interview. 2nd one at their office is on the 26th 😄

[gaunt moat]

[nocturne sigil]

[nocturne sigil]

[upper oracle]

Well, I did get it whitened yesterday and brought some lube just in case

[nocturne sigil]

send it

[gaunt moat]

i scalped a long for 5 MES points on the first big pullback this morning. setting, watching and tendin other shit since then

[nocturne sigil]

how did this turn?

LOL

[upper oracle]

It was Achilles who asked the question, so I had to

[gaunt moat]

scalping ain't my thing anymore, but when you gotta you gotta, for me at least.

[upper oracle]

Sounds solid actually. So you skipped all this bs PA

[vagrant plank]

Beige book report in 32 minutes 👀

[gaunt moat]

yeah. odds are/where it would be an inside day and after that big pullback [news influenced] it was gonna be mostly rangy. it's laid down a respective layer of volume to play in, ie., wallow in the mud 😆

[upper oracle]

Like a lungfish in mud haha

[gaunt moat]

damn. i said that about as poorly as i could. shit.

[surreal dust]

in the us they just spit on that thing

[upper oracle]

you're in the UK no?

[surreal dust]

yes but Micky isn't 😄

[cinder pulsar]

back now - forgot to mention luxalgo performed perfectly on 3min on ES post 10 am for 13 points and 8 points respectively

but i did not take as too busy watching NQ Doh

[upper oracle]

?

wtf

[cinder pulsar]

missed the trade now on gold

[agile jasper]

you snooze you lose

[surreal dust]

ES and NQ still flighting with those highs

[gaunt moat]

a bit of wick in both

on the runs up

[surreal dust]

tought one

not sure I want to short here but it is tempting

[gaunt moat]

i don't like the short for where it is. i can dig others taking it, but i'm passing it.

[cinder pulsar]

234 at 21800 at present

and 65 at 21799

21799 gone

[nocturne sigil]

Who’s getting ready?

[surreal dust]

couldn't resist

[cinder pulsar]

Es has 745 at th e top

[gaunt moat]

hah! i wasn't going to set through the grind! giddy up!

need some spur!!

[nocturne sigil]

Ha

[surreal dust]

can't resist a cheap short

[gaunt moat]

did you hang in? heck; it might keep dribbling down. . .

[cinder pulsar]

short es and nq although only es called it per strategy

[nocturne sigil]

Hahahatooppoo funny

So much for pep talk

Haha

[surreal dust]

doesnt really look like she wants to go down tbh

NQ making HH's too

[gaunt moat]

its really thick. lots of volume and the short setup is right on top of all that volume.

[surreal dust]

will be hillliarious if we just range in this are until NFP on Friday 😄

[cinder pulsar]

ha ha sure they will be more choppy ddays before then

nq now a short call as per strategy

[upper oracle]

I fail to see how that would be hilarious😂

[cinder pulsar]

a couple of candles down like this am would be nice on nq

[surreal dust]

just wait and see 😄

[surreal dust]

will be right at the close 😄

[cinder pulsar]

cheers bud

[surreal dust]

still holding my short but moved SL into profit now

in case we go the other way for the close 😄

see if we can tag bottom of the range

[livid ravine]

For me, a very boring trading day.

[cinder pulsar]

yep me too other than losing a couple of trades

[nocturne sigil]

20 minutes left and then some

[cinder pulsar]

the days finale nears - gonna miss this when ia m away

[gaunt moat]

the drop!

[cinder pulsar]

a bit moe oomp would be good

oomph

like that

out at 751

[nocturne sigil]

Final few minutes

[surreal dust]

meh

didn't make it

hit bottom of range tho

will just here and take profit iI think

[cinder pulsar]

i thought about 720 for the nq then decided on 751 to make sure as 750 a surety

[surreal dust]

worse days for sure

[nocturne sigil]

I would take this

[cinder pulsar]

net c $200 for the day positive - i will take the positive

[surreal dust]

thjought about letting topstep auto close me... and see if togoes lower

[nocturne sigil]

Yes 👍

[surreal dust]

but might as well bank I guess

[cinder pulsar]

and demo account neatly 50% there

[nocturne sigil]

They will make some excuse that you violated something

Hahahah

[cinder pulsar]

tomorrow focus on topstep aup and running premarket like today

[surreal dust]

topstep are pretty good... but APEX will F you up if you do that lol

they will close your account sometimes

[nocturne sigil]

[surreal dust]

topstep it is just a softbreach

man I am SO HUNGRY

lol

but I can't eat anything or I will go over my macros

although I do have 20g of protein left technically 😅

need to go to sleep so I dont think about food 😄

we still didn't close above weekly @urban flint omminious signs so far 😄

really think there is a good chance we range here tomorrow too

[nocturne sigil]

drink water

[surreal dust]

and then Friday NFP is the catalyst for the market move

[surreal dust]

I am ... through a protein shake cause I didn't eat enough meat so I am trying to drink it 😂

[cinder pulsar]

yep before next news item atht will disrupt but be sure it will be swing up swing down swing up swing down swing up

in a day

cant blame people I guess... I was looking for the same thing when I first started tbf

anyway breakfast time 😄

need to get the protein in 🤣

[cinder pulsar]

3 min strategy update... 6 calls today so far 2 longs on gc, 1 long and short on nq & es so 6 out of 6 - i took one!

[surreal dust]

the winning one? 😄

[cinder pulsar]

nq long while i dropped the kids it rocketed and when came back still up there so banked it!

[surreal dust]

that was good timing I was late into that move ... just scalped the end before resistence

[cinder pulsar]

the gold lon would have been a cracker also

at 433

0433

[surreal dust]

yup i stopped following commodities last few weeks

should get back on that

trading crypto distracted me

[cinder pulsar]

i dont do crypto

thought about it and liked the 24x7 time to it but just never took to it

topstep limit per day 50% of toal profit

need to remember this if my NQ long plays out

i never thought about mgc but you pointed me to it when i jonied this group

worked out well a few times

off to gym back for open -1hr

[surreal dust]

yeah that is the problem

[surreal dust]

it is a great asset to trade tbh

[cinder pulsar]

[surreal dust]

close eyes and pray to Caca's vwap

[cinder pulsar]

[agile jasper]

[urban flint]

Just so close to being a good trade :/

[cinder pulsar]

gold

[surreal dust]

going to be so pissed

if this candles closes in 5 mins

below the wick highs of last two days

[cinder pulsar]

we know the high and the low for the day at present

[urban flint]

6k ES or I eat my statement

[cinder pulsar]

[surreal dust]

[urban flint]

different color than neon so we can tell apart

I'm going to buy any dip here. work done by marketmakers.

[gaunt moat]

good morning.

[surreal dust]

I am waiting for that close

above weekly

to add any new positions

lol

hmmm

[daring breach]

https://tenor.com/view/starwars-wisdom-yoda-gif-4813521

[surreal dust]

took profit on all accounts

enterered new longs

until we take this weekly

[daring breach]

also just added ha

[cinder pulsar]

Order book at 22k

[surreal dust]

Hope it tastes ok @fair socket 🤣

[gaunt moat]

this one took four trys. you can see a stopped effort there on the left. every now and then a blind hog finds that acorn. . .

[gaunt moat]

the stopped trades to the left. the sausage making often not seen 😆

[surreal dust]

still no close on ES

see what the open does I guess

still looks like a fake move to me...

even tho I am long 😄

hope I am wrong and we pump

although I will also be technically right as I am long

so I win either way

[cinder pulsar]

hope we pump on Es and Nq and gold!

not bad for first topstep trade

[surreal dust]

https://tenor.com/view/muscles-flex-strong-man-gif-9667735817216185709

https://tenor.com/view/sid-vicious-sycho-sid-sid-justice-wcw-1993-gif-17207990109934133336

or this one for Sidvicious 😄

[gaunt moat]

man, that's great. is this your first prop trade?

[cinder pulsar]

dont think i have even be some impatient for the market to open on any day before now - set ups all in place nad ready to rock!

[gaunt moat]

i bet!! congrats!

[surreal dust]

PAYtience is really the thing!

[cinder pulsar]

no used apex before but achilles showed topstep charts that i like so signed up on tuesday and took first trade in 50k prop today to get going.. on another to apex

[urban flint]

let's open this up 🙂

[cinder pulsar]

had to share it as motivation for newbies

[gaunt moat]

you're long in the ES? fwiw; after the last three days accumulation, i can't see the bulls letting go without more upward movement.

[cinder pulsar]

well said

[surreal dust]

yes still long

but irrevelant unless ES closes above weekly

which it has still failed to do for 3 days currently

hopefully it takes it today

i prefer going up 😄

really hope that Trump / XI calls has positive headlines lol

[surreal dust]

this is awful btw 😂

[gaunt moat]

maybe don will give you a tweet, then a follow up tweet. i still think we're going up [traditional caveats, here 😆 ]

[surreal dust]

alot of m7's are in weekly boxes too

so its going to be super interesting

[urban flint]

Fuckers.

[cinder pulsar]

yep fuckers

[agile jasper]

dump to the vwap

[surreal dust]

rejecting again so we will see

still in range

lol

chooooppp city resumes 😄

day 3... how much chop can you tak e:D

[gaunt moat]

chop. it's why i went to sleep after setting those trades last night 😆

[surreal dust]

same level over and over again on ES

[urban flint]

back to waiting and chop

was hoping to get out early

[surreal dust]

me too haha

[urban flint]

I just wanted a real send up

take profit and then say CYA tomorrow lol

is that too much to ask for?

[urban flint]

still most likely will happen but annoyed

[surreal dust]

dammit

who deleted my reply

lol

[surreal dust]

think we are setting up position for tomorrow ... today... so should be interesting

[cinder pulsar]

choppy start

thats what it looks like

[surreal dust]

it has to break at some point

so I am waiting again now

same as yesterday

need that 15m (min timeframe) close on ES above the wick highs

[cinder pulsar]

testing your patience but you are persistent and resilient

[surreal dust]

i would rather spray and pray 😄

https://tenor.com/view/magic-hugs-shooting-everyone-blind-fire-everything-gif-9990849

[cinder pulsar]

gold kept me profitable so far

short and ong

long

[surreal dust]

should have gone with my gut and shorted the high would have been a nice scalp trade

can scalp up too from the bottom range lol

[urban flint]

If 4 h closes in 15 min on ES and NQ like this, then down we go for a bit

T-minus 15

[surreal dust]

lets see

SL in profit now

[urban flint]

Yeah looking for like it now.. let's see still waiting

[surreal dust]

we short have shorted that high Qaction

was so obvious really :/ got caught up in my long

took profit again

[cinder pulsar]

also caught up in my longs that failed again for the third time today staying away for an hour

[surreal dust]

only 1 account open

[surreal dust]

yeah do the school run first like me

and then we will see again

the close in 10 mins should be interesting

[cinder pulsar]

missing Micky's lines

[surreal dust]

back in shorts

although school run soon :/

[turbid musk]

Busy now at work

[agile jasper]

vwap here

[gaunt moat]

[cinder pulsar]

trump again?

[gaunt moat]

not sure if djt is talking but i'm out for now.

[cinder pulsar]

me at the sidelines just chilling listening to music and learning more about bookmap

enjoy the timeout

[gaunt moat]

i'm done unless the goose craps in my lap.

[agile jasper]

hmm NQ what you up to

[surreal dust]

[agile jasper]

[daring breach]

Looooong da sheize

[surreal dust]

[daring breach]

I call it pre valhalla range

[surreal dust]

vwap trading day and month 😄

Caca has powered up 😄

oh lots of trump / xi news coming out slowly

[cinder pulsar]

iceberg orders above and below

[daring breach]

All in for break up

[surreal dust]

only going to post red from now on

see what the market does with those nuggets

oops there is the stick

come on ES show some teeth

[cinder pulsar]

ES wealer

[gaunt moat]

what app are you using for the heatmap? back in the day when i was daytrading like a fiend i used jigsaw on Ninja for this stuff. gives me so-so memories 😆

[surreal dust]

yup pretty fustrating as NQ keeps taking its weekly

if ES could do the same we could have a nice run

[gaunt moat]

definitely an inside day. a bad day to be stuck if anyone is stuck.

[cinder pulsar]

come on q dont be shy take out the top

[gaunt moat]

the ES ain't having it righ now.

[surreal dust]

ES sucks ass

[upper oracle]

Got stuck in the mud

not trading this shit

few trades in the morning. Let it be after that

[cinder pulsar]

been trading 1 contract but fed up with it - sure it will break top but can do it without me.. need to pack for trip so off to do that then come back to see if calmed any

think pre-market better as trump asleep and no news

[gaunt moat]

i don't think you'll miss much

[cinder pulsar]

369 on order book at 21900 biggest on chart so will likely get there

enjot

enjoy

see ya 1hr

[nocturne sigil]

just like yesterday mu Neos said bullish, so I stay bullish

[gaunt moat]

ES/MES 1 hours. here's my current wisdom for what it is worth. the drop below captured in the oval is significant and needs a tracker on it. it's the gateway to things below, potentially.

[surreal dust]

who is going to be brave and short the ES high this time lol

not sure I will

[gaunt moat]

only on a parabolic😯

[upper oracle]

https://tenor.com/view/no-balls-dukes-talking-gif-15555192

[gaunt moat]

not me. i sold some agri's and opened a small account that i'm going to try to double in the micros and minis. i gotta be selective 🙄

which means, i'll violate my phony discipline soon.

[upper oracle]

phone discipline?

[urban flint]

so where we going?

[surreal dust]

i mean how many times is it going to tap it

and not go through

going to be pretty bad if it keeps rejecting lol

everyone will short the sweet FJ out of it

eventually

[agile jasper]

to sleep soon

[sturdy wharf]

im being a lot slower this month. Trying to cut trades that are bad quickly taking max 2 trades a day

[upper oracle]

Trump is live in 30

[upper oracle]

[surreal dust]

come on ES

[surreal dust]

he probably will be to be honest if there is a good news 😄

there we go

[turbid musk]

Meh this one is only 1mnq because im busy at work

Lunch break now

[surreal dust]

ohh boss trade

i just opened google calls again

[upper oracle]

Don't misunderstand. That wasn't a joke. Trump will be live in 25 from now

[surreal dust]

here is my lunch... cash account 🙂

[upper oracle]

From what I'm seeing, our chancellor will be joining that conference too lol

[surreal dust]

probably tariff news?

[vapid gust]

hope everyones in the green today

[upper oracle]

Not sure, less likely

[daring breach]

Tp hit

[upper oracle]
