Transcription

00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:11,100 ICT: He likes it. Give me an audio check. Just to intimidate as a reply to it as he can hear me the volumes okay if everything's good enough
00:01:33,570 --> 00:01:45,450 Thank you very much. Appreciate that. hope everybody's doing well tonight. So I posted, I wanted to see what kind of response I would get on a Saturday night. I
00:01:45,450 --> 00:01:58,860 said he made money with what I've taught to me an email if you want to do an interview with me, man, my my inbox is blitzed it's, we're gonna have interviews
00:01:58,860 --> 00:02:10,530 for a while, apparently, because it's a lot of people that want to talk in. And so very thankful and appreciative of that. On a Saturday night, no less. So it
00:02:10,530 --> 00:02:19,530 kind of tells you what's up, right? You would think they'd be all out there, having a good time on their weekend, waiting to be able to jump on Twitter to
00:02:19,530 --> 00:02:33,270 say I'm ready to talk. So anyway, I didn't plan obviously, to do a shark on Saturday. And I guess this is a shark on Saturday, it's just a pm edition of it
00:02:33,270 --> 00:02:45,270 hmm. So, you know, while many times these things are therapeutic, and yes, I'm going to talk about trading, and how you can improve on it. Let me get the
00:02:45,360 --> 00:03:04,500 monologue out of the way please. Many times I use this medium here to act as therapy. I'm trying to condition myself through doing this. And I don't do very
00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:20,700 well, most times in the last two Twitter spaces, I did not do well at all. And that tendency for me to swing and have mood changes and lose control what I want
10 00:03:20,700 --> 00:03:31,380 to really say I don't want to say those types of things. I don't want to do that. And I know some of you may be a lot of you like that part of me, I don't
11 00:03:31,380 --> 00:03:43,350 like that part of me. And I wish I could change it. But it just goes to show all of us have something that we're wrestling with. And I'm just thankful that when
12 00:03:43,350 --> 00:03:54,150 I'm able to look at the charts live and just what I meant earlier, because I think a few of you got it misunderstood when I said when I'm looking at nothing
13 00:03:54,150 --> 00:04:07,320 like right now I don't have live candlesticks painting, my mind's not preoccupied with trying to decipher what it's going to do next. So because you
14 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:18,660 know, I have an open field in front of me and I can run wild and nothing really holding my attention. That means I'm letting whatever thought first in line and
15 00:04:18,660 --> 00:04:27,060 whoever gets shoved out of the way and the next one jumps in there. That's kind of like what comes out of my mouth. And sometimes if it's a positive thing, you
16 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:42,960 most of you can find some benefit from that. Unfortunately, the things I try to wrestle with all the time, the near psychotic episode sometimes that bipolarism
17 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:59,250 brings on that doesn't always come across as the best delivery after the fact. And I don't listen to the user live even Twitter spaces, because I know if I
18 00:04:59,250 --> 00:05:10,410 hear myself To say certain things or react a specific way, I'm going to be shamed because of it, I don't want to feel that. So what I did in the past, and
19 00:05:10,410 --> 00:05:27,030 I'm trying to do is I'm trying to condition myself and fall down in front of you. And hopefully do less of it. Because if I can do this the correct way, if
20 00:05:27,030 --> 00:05:37,230 I'm successful, and I might not be, but I'm trying very, very hard to do this. But it's difficult for me to maintain because I can't hold that. That state of
21 00:05:37,260 --> 00:05:51,840 balance. Sometimes I get wound up and rage kicks in, sometimes, you know, I get a little carried away and excited and have too much fun. And need the fun is
22 00:05:51,840 --> 00:06:03,330 what you like. And it feels good, admittedly, while I'm doing it, but then I feel convicted later on. And I wish I had the ability to talk eloquently all the
23 00:06:03,330 --> 00:06:16,290 time. But I can't. So you have to kind of let me be human, I guess sometimes. And it's not an excuse, because I'm not looking for an excuse. I'm not looking
24 00:06:16,290 --> 00:06:32,610 for anybody to give me permission to act out. But all of us have these things inside of us, not maybe to the extreme that I have. And looking at a list on my
25 00:06:33,690 --> 00:06:47,220 my pad here to try to keep me focused on when I want to talk about not derail. But when you're trading, and you have all of these concerns about making money
26 00:06:47,220 --> 00:06:58,020 or fear of making a losing trade or failure, or living up to your expectations, or what you think the expectations that are held by your family and friends that
27 00:06:58,020 --> 00:07:11,400 know about what you're doing and trading and why you're doing it. It's really difficult for some, and I, once I got over the the fear of getting in, you know,
28 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:21,420 I was afraid of the entry technique I was afraid of doing the wrong entry, you know, what's the wrong entry. And there isn't any wrong entry. It's just, you
29 00:07:21,420 --> 00:07:29,640 have to engage. And sometimes you're going to have a trade that's beneficial, sometimes you're gonna have a trade it's gonna take from you. And you have to be
30 00:07:29,670 --> 00:07:43,500 indifferent to the outcome. And I had to desensitize myself, which is kind of like what I'm trying to do here. I'm trying to get to the point where I can do
31 00:07:43,500 --> 00:07:54,870 these types of things. And hopefully, it'll carry over in my personal life away from all of you, because I wrestle with this every day. And it's hard. So when
32 00:07:54,870 --> 00:08:06,300 I'm live in looking at candlesticks, I'm preoccupied, I won't let anything else in. My focus is what the next candle is going to be doing. So that's the reason
33 00:08:06,300 --> 00:08:16,350 why you can hear me talking kind of much like what I'm talking about, like right now. But if I don't have something holding my attention, I'm like a kid in a
34 00:08:16,350 --> 00:08:28,680 candy store. I'm going to run around, I'm gonna just be a kid, I guess, you know, 50 year old kid. And I understand and I appreciate all of you trying to
35 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:38,880 encourage me to just be myself. But this is one of those ugly things in my personality that I've never really liked about me. And I didn't want to share it
36 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:52,260 with all of you. I've mastered it in my trading. I've wrestled it and held it at bay in my trading, but I've never been able to fully overcome it outside of
37 00:08:52,260 --> 00:09:03,510 trading, and sometimes I have a impulsiveness that comes over me that I can't really bring down to a point where this is where it originates, this is how it
38 00:09:03,510 --> 00:09:12,450 started. This is how he came in. Whereas if you had like an anxiety attack or a panic attack, and if you have never traded with life, money or life funds,
39 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:19,860 you'll probably have one. Once you start trading on live funds, you'll you'll have an anxiety attack, you'll have a panic attack, you'll, you'll feel heart
40 00:09:19,860 --> 00:09:27,240 palpitations, you're gonna feel like you're having a heart attack, you're gonna feel like you're gonna pass out, you're gonna feel like you're gonna be sick.
41 00:09:28,770 --> 00:09:41,310 It's an overwhelming fear of the world closing in on you. And the reason why that's going to happen is because you're over leveraging, and you probably are
42 00:09:42,150 --> 00:09:50,460 doing that last trade where you just don't really think you care about the outcome. But you're rolling the dice to see if you can get back from that big
43 00:09:50,460 --> 00:09:58,440 drawdown you put yourself into and right before you know the inevitable blow out of that account, because you're doing something impulsively and you're doing
44 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:14,610 something over leveraged Trading 40 contracts you look smart in front of everyone, and then you fail. And you can't catch your breath. Those types of
45 00:10:14,610 --> 00:10:29,100 things, well, those panic attacks those core events of fear that can obviously be dialed back to okay, this is this is the reason why it happened. This is why
46 00:10:29,100 --> 00:10:41,640 you lost control over yourself, because you're being impulsive about the money. But it bipolar bipolarism isn't like that. Sometimes that can be triggered.
47 00:10:41,670 --> 00:10:51,990 Yeah. But then sometimes I don't know where it comes from and to start. And that's why I don't like to do these things. So I'm just letting you know that
48 00:10:51,990 --> 00:11:02,220 it's very difficult for me to do this. And I appreciate all of you that are encouraging me to do it. I don't want you encouraging me to be wild. That that's
49 00:11:02,250 --> 00:11:12,900 that's not what I want to do. But, and it probably doesn't sound exciting, or mostly boring to all of you now. But I want to get through this year of teaching
50 00:11:13,020 --> 00:11:29,220 and have a lasting impression on you with what I'm trying to communicate, not entertain you. So I titled this one through the looking glass. And the thought
51 00:11:29,220 --> 00:11:34,200 came to me this evening, when I got an email from a student that
52 00:11:35,460 --> 00:11:46,830 obviously has failed. And he wants to more or less put the fault on me. And I just let him know about himself. And basically told them go pound sand. So
53 00:11:48,930 --> 00:12:03,870 there's no way anybody on the outside looking in can argue the fact that what I'm telling you before happens in the marketplace is not rooted in sound logic.
54 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:22,860 And it's consistent. And it's precise. But there are some that may look at this through the looking glass and see far more than they expected to see. And that's
55 00:12:22,860 --> 00:12:35,340 my audience. See, I like to give things as an expectation. And then I like going beyond that. I like over delivering I like doing those types of things. I like
56 00:12:35,340 --> 00:12:44,640 conditioning you as my audience and my student base to just expect, well, this is going to be good. But then you're floored because I give you even more than
57 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:58,350 that. And open up the curtain a little bit more, pull back the veil. And you get to see that there's absolutely crazy precision that's predictable, that you can
58 00:12:58,380 --> 00:13:03,510 lean on the logic and do these things on your own. Maybe not so much right now, but you're learning
59 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:23,340 the topic of submitting to trades intraday. And seeing folks say in the comment section, they can see it as I'm describing it. And they feel empowered by me
60 00:13:23,370 --> 00:13:32,340 explaining beforehand what it has, what happens and what's likely to happen. And that's normal. And that's what I'm trying to condition all of you to feel to
61 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:43,500 motivate you. Because it would be very unsuccessful in motivating anyone if I wasn't able to tell you what was gonna happen beforehand. Number one, he would
62 00:13:43,530 --> 00:13:53,970 communicate number one a failure, by me to be a communicate something that I know is real, and many of my students for almost seven years now have witnessed
63 00:13:53,970 --> 00:14:04,110 it on a day by day basis. You're all getting that experience right now. And it's not something that just started working. It's been like this for a long, long
64 00:14:04,110 --> 00:14:16,500 time. But you don't appreciate it until you see it. And when you're in the presence of that live commentary where it's being explained to you, this is what
65 00:14:16,500 --> 00:14:24,900 it should do. Watch this here, it should do this, it shouldn't do that. We want to see this. We don't want to see that. It communicates foresight, it
66 00:14:24,900 --> 00:14:37,230 communicates the ability of predicting, forecasting a reasonable outcome that would otherwise be unknown to everyone else. And when you watch that, and you're
67 00:14:37,230 --> 00:14:45,090 experiencing it when I'm doing a live session or sending out the tweets telling you about what the chart is going to show in your computer or device later on.
68 00:14:46,590 --> 00:15:00,120 Once it unfolds and you see it and you were there and you watched it. You saw everything real time through the looking glass. It gives you a sense of all Do
69 00:15:00,450 --> 00:15:13,230 not over me because that's not what this is about. But it gives you a sense of all over the precision, the consistency in the day in and day out delivery of
70 00:15:13,230 --> 00:15:32,880 price, which should give you a reason to not fear not be concerned about them against us, then guys doing it to us guys. Okay? What we're doing is bringing
71 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:49,140 our collective attention to what those individuals that put these markets in motion. What they're doing, we're getting in alignment with that. You're never
72 00:15:49,140 --> 00:16:03,030 ever ever Mr. Morrow, beating the market maker. You're never beating the market maker. Never. Okay, you will have the privilege to learn from me on how to be in
73 00:16:03,030 --> 00:16:20,130 alignment with that you'll understand the concepts that get you safely in and out of conditions that are likely to hurt other traders. You'll learn how to
74 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:32,910 navigate drawdown and not be fearful that just because you done something incorrectly, and you will, it does not mean that this stuff doesn't work, or
75 00:16:32,910 --> 00:16:44,580 they're somehow changing things. Because if that's what your mindset is revolving around right now, you're feeling panicked? Oh, no, I better hurry up
76 00:16:44,580 --> 00:16:53,430 and do this, because Michaels talked about how hard it's going to be. And I just want to jump in here and interject this part at a block at the block a guy
77 00:16:53,460 --> 00:17:05,580 earlier today that came back to a discussion that I mentioned in the last Twitter space. And I let myself talk about things that I would never discuss
78 00:17:05,610 --> 00:17:18,990 those topics on YouTube, number one, two, they're not really popular topics. And because they're very, um, I'm already divisive as a person anyway. And trading,
79 00:17:18,990 --> 00:17:29,670 I'm really divisive, which I want to be, I want you to either love what I'm teaching. Or basically you say, Fuck off, I don't care. This guy isn't the right
80 00:17:29,670 --> 00:17:38,640 one for me, and I'm moving on. Whatever. If you don't want to be here, for whatever reason, you need to go. And I don't care. The reason why don't even
81 00:17:39,270 --> 00:17:50,190 don't even wait by to me, Just get the fuck out. Right. But if if you warm up to the ideas that I teach something that resonates with you, and I think everybody
82 00:17:50,190 --> 00:17:58,080 can resonate with being correct. Everyone can resonate with being on the right side of the marketplace, knowing what it's likely to do next. I mean, who can't
83 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:13,920 warm up to that idea. You can hear when I'm talking about trading, I'm very passionate about it. But I'm not emotionally passionate. Related to control,
84 00:18:14,550 --> 00:18:25,620 euphoric, when I'm talking about price, because I've been here before. I'm not scared, I'm not worried about being wrong. And I pretty much know what's likely
85 00:18:25,620 --> 00:18:35,850 to happen next. And you've seen that and it's, it's not a it's not an issue. But I brought up topics in the last Twitter space that, admittedly, was very
86 00:18:35,850 --> 00:18:44,580 divisive in my own private mentorship. And some of the students actually quit and had a lot to say about me as a person. And some of them still talk about me
87 00:18:44,730 --> 00:18:58,170 in public, because I wasn't subscribing to their viewpoint politically, or had the view about the things that I talked about in that last Twitter space. And
88 00:18:58,170 --> 00:19:05,100 that's fine. I don't care. I mean, you're never gonna have dinner with me. You're not coming over my house, you know, we're not going to be buddies. And
89 00:19:05,100 --> 00:19:14,790 we're not going to have you double dates with our spouses. And at this, we're not going to have card games, okay? This is the extent of our relationship. You
90 00:19:14,820 --> 00:19:26,550 hear me talk to you, I invest my time and energy into you and your life and your ability to learn how to do this. But if I'm asked a lot about certain things,
91 00:19:27,690 --> 00:19:37,170 and I've kept myself away from it, eventually it wears on me. And if I'm in a setting like this, something will trigger me. And I'll just start talking about
92 00:19:37,170 --> 00:19:46,650 the things it's fighting to get in front of my mind. And vaccines, I'm sure is one of those topics that some of you may be listening that you just love to go
93 00:19:46,650 --> 00:19:57,270 to war about. You want to defend it, or you want to go against it. I was literally just telling everybody, this was my position on it. This is why and
94 00:19:57,270 --> 00:20:06,660 I'm not asking for people to debate me in the asking for people to agree with me. But when I talk about those topics, I'm telling you why I'm inspired to be
95 00:20:06,660 --> 00:20:17,340 doing all of this for fucking free. Like I'm pouring into you, my time, I have better things to be doing, than sitting here talking to people that I'm never
96 00:20:17,340 --> 00:20:26,940 going to meet, and listening to people bitch about how I'm doing it. Like I don't, I don't want to hear that. Like, I'm doing this because I want to do it
97 00:20:26,940 --> 00:20:35,550 because I know how hard it's gonna be. But then when I read folks saying that I'm trying to cultivate fear, I'm trying to teach you not to be fearful,
98 00:20:35,550 --> 00:20:46,260 fearful. That's a whole that's the whole point of me doing this. When I teach about trading, I'm teaching you how to never be fearful. Respect the risk, yes.
99 00:20:47,430 --> 00:20:55,890 But not be fearful of it. If you're fearful if you're paralyzed by the fear, or the uncertainty, whether it be about the things it's coming, which you aren't
100 00:20:55,890 --> 00:21:07,830 going to be able to stop that. I can't stop it. Did you hear me say, I'm gonna lose my mind scared? No, I'm concerned. Yes, who wouldn't be, but you can't walk
101 00:21:07,830 --> 00:21:17,310 around in denial, thinking like the last three years didn't happen. Because there's more things coming. And you need to make your house ready. So I'm trying
102 00:21:17,310 --> 00:21:28,650 to give you a skill to help you do that. I'm not trying to scare any of you. But some of you that are very weak. And I was a weak man after 911. When that
103 00:21:28,650 --> 00:21:39,120 happened, I was paralyzed by fear. And I lived with it for a number of years, until I was able to defeat that I am not a person that has anxiety. I'm not
104 00:21:39,120 --> 00:21:45,480 fearful what these fuckers on the internet talk about. I don't give a shit about your bullshit lawsuit. I don't give a shit about what you think you could do in
105 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:53,070 a trading competition. I ain't seen it by on that leaderboard, I recognized Yeah. I'm not worried about that stuff. That does not bother me. What pisses me
106 00:21:53,070 --> 00:22:10,410 off is, well, what I just did there. I don't, I don't like that part of me. And the other part is, I wish that I could not give a fuck about people copying. If
107 00:22:10,410 --> 00:22:19,020 I go out there and do what I know I can do when I want it. What I want to do is lay waste to every motherfucker out there right now. And that's what I want to
108 00:22:19,020 --> 00:22:33,270 do. That's what I want to do. But I know, just like you see it seep out in these live streams. That same 20 year old ego is dying to come out. It's dying to come
109 00:22:33,270 --> 00:22:41,160 out. And I'm wrestling with that. And I feel like I'm being tested that night. That's what I really feel like I'm being tested. And the last two, I've failed.
110 00:22:41,940 --> 00:22:52,200 The last two live streams, or Twitter spaces have failed. I don't ever get like that when I'm trading. I don't ever, ever let myself get fucking stupid like
111 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:56,460 that and go off the rails and just know, psychotic.
112 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:09,120 Now, when I'm done releasing all that stuff, I feel balanced. Once it wants to Twitter space ends, I feel balanced. And then I feel convicted. I feel I've
113 00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:17,850 shouldn't have done that. And then I feel regret. And I feel ashamed and embarrassed. And I feel like I am not a good role model for some of you,
114 00:23:17,910 --> 00:23:28,170 especially the young men who may listen who may listen to me and think, Well, he does that and talks like that. And that sounds empowering. That sounds alpha,
115 00:23:28,590 --> 00:23:39,480 it's weak. It's what it is, it's weak. And I wish it didn't do that. But I'm thankful that you all recognize that I'm not in any way shape, or form
116 00:23:39,510 --> 00:23:52,560 emotional, good or bad when I'm talking to you about what price is doing. Which is why I've done so well in it. Because it's like meditation is allowing me when
117 00:23:52,560 --> 00:24:08,580 I do it, to look through a looking glass and focus on one thing. And because I am serious about the outcome of my precision, it allows me to arm wrestle and
118 00:24:08,580 --> 00:24:17,190 subdue all of the other thoughts that are constantly trying to get in the forefront of my mind. distracting me, causing me to doubt this, get angry about
119 00:24:17,190 --> 00:24:28,320 that worry about this worry about that kid's wife wanting me to do this, you know everything that everybody else has to contend with. When you're bipolar, it
120 00:24:28,410 --> 00:24:36,150 tends to become a bigger deal than it really is. And you make it more than it really is. And you don't want to but it's just what happens. But when I'm
121 00:24:36,150 --> 00:24:50,580 watching price, and I'm expecting a setup, or I'm stalking a setup or now because I'm tape reading with all of you. I feel balanced. Like I feel like I'm
122 00:24:50,580 --> 00:25:02,880 absolutely laser guided and I don't feel that tug of war that I feel any other time. Which is why you see me always Talking about this, you asked many times,
123 00:25:02,940 --> 00:25:14,460 when do I sleep sporadically and for hours, and it's using whenever I get whatever I want to get done, I don't have a set schedule asleep, like I don't
124 00:25:14,460 --> 00:25:23,730 have that. And it's, it sounds insane. And I guess to the average person, that would be insane. Because everybody has a bedtime everybody gets up at this time,
125 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:37,230 I don't. And sometimes I don't go to sleep for a day or two. And maybe that's viewed in your eyes is unhealthy. It's just what I have done for years. It's
126 00:25:37,230 --> 00:25:54,840 sometimes insomnia. And then other days, it's just I don't have any end the energy, it just goes and goes and goes and goes, goes. So with these sessions,
127 00:25:54,840 --> 00:26:04,860 where I don't have a filter, I have to work very hard to try to stay focused on what it is I want to cover. But I don't want any of you to listen to those last
128 00:26:04,860 --> 00:26:17,370 two spaces. And think I'm trying to scare any of you because I'm not, I'm not trying to fear monger, I I'm providing a way for you to prepare, at least that's
129 00:26:17,370 --> 00:26:28,410 what my motivation is. And again, I'm reminding you that I don't get paid at all doing these. There's no monetization, and I'm inviting all of you to take them
130 00:26:28,410 --> 00:26:40,890 and put them on your YouTube channels and get ad revenue, I don't give a flying fuck, I don't care, I don't care. So I use these to decompress. And they're not
131 00:26:40,890 --> 00:26:51,750 going to be eloquent, sometimes they're not going to be, you know, children friendly, you should absolutely never have these playing with children around.
132 00:26:52,290 --> 00:27:00,480 Because you don't know what I'm going to say you don't know, when I'm going to have a shift in my mood may not be like I can feel it winding up in me, like
133 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:16,710 it's there. But I don't, I don't want to be uncivilized. Let's I guess that's the word I'm looking for. I don't want to be in a position where the father or
134 00:27:16,710 --> 00:27:27,840 the mother or the couple that are listening to this expecting the same inner circle trader that's on YouTube, boring, drying, dry, mundane. Delivery of okay,
135 00:27:28,110 --> 00:27:39,720 I put people to sleep over there. And I'm standing, but here that I don't have the the safety net, like I do when I do recorded sessions where I can edit out
136 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:53,520 those things. And I might go off and start talking about things that are not so family friendly, and use language that, you know, if I was in better control of
137 00:27:53,520 --> 00:28:03,060 myself, I wouldn't reach for. So for those individuals that do have children, and it made the mistake of trusting me in these instances, and having that in
138 00:28:03,060 --> 00:28:11,670 your mind, as this is how I'm going to talk and then you hear that, you know, I apologize for that. But I can't It's not like I come here I'm not wanting to do
139 00:28:11,670 --> 00:28:27,030 that. So anyway, monologues over. So when we're looking at price action, and you've probably seen enough of it over the last couple of weeks now there's a
140 00:28:27,030 --> 00:28:39,000 lot of different approaches that trading can give you for a model approach, what style trade you're gonna be, you're gonna be a day trader, you're gonna be a
141 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:45,960 scalper Are you going to trade the entire daily range? Give me a short term trade, you're gonna hold overnight, or over the weekend, you're gonna be a swing
142 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:55,650 trader and hope for a couple of weeks, which right now, that would be extremely ballsy like that, I mean, there's a lot of gap risk, you have no idea what's
143 00:28:55,650 --> 00:29:07,230 going to cause, you know, an extreme gap. We might have an extreme gap on Sunday tomorrow. Like we may see it open up, way, way, way, way far away from where we
144 00:29:07,230 --> 00:29:22,170 close on Friday. Why? Well, we got that big liquidity pool resting below that daily love talked about in Eurodollar. We have the liquidity pool above, there's
145 00:29:22,170 --> 00:29:32,940 relative equal highs and that volume imbalance on a daily chart for dollar. So they could start the week, right up there. And then that makes the rest of the
146 00:29:32,940 --> 00:29:44,130 week a little bit more challenging, because it could open up there for dollar and then trade back down to where we closed on Friday, consolidate around a
147 00:29:44,130 --> 00:29:53,340 little bit and then it has to wrestle and go back up through that again, to continue higher if it's where it's gonna go. So, what I do on the weekends and
148 00:29:53,340 --> 00:30:04,350 what's this is what I've been doing now since 2020 is I'm basically watching the head deadlines and seeing what's what's happening around the world. Now, I'm not
149 00:30:04,350 --> 00:30:16,590 sitting there, you know, in my boxer shorts here on code, unpaid, unshaven, I guess emoji but it's it's grown for a reason. But you know not not looking like
150 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:25,800 I'm strung out on anything you know, I'm not flipping out watching all the the news and panicking. I'm literally just going through headlines and articles and
151 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:37,680 trying to stay abreast of what they're doing around the world and what you might be an issue come Sunday's opening throughout the week, obviously I spend a lot
152 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:53,520 of time with all of you. And when we look at charts, daily, it's my hope that you're learning to see how these things come to fruition. The organization of
153 00:30:53,640 --> 00:31:04,020 how they form in price action, when I call something out on Twitter, in tweet saying, Okay, look at this, look at that. You can the real students can hear me
154 00:31:04,020 --> 00:31:13,140 say when I'm really expecting the price run in a specific direction, where I think it's gonna go that type of thing. And they're the ones I'm trading.
155 00:31:13,410 --> 00:31:22,590 They're the ones you see examples later on. And it's not ambiguous. It's very specific. We're not calling buys and sells every single time I mentioned
156 00:31:22,590 --> 00:31:34,290 something, but I'm bringing your attention to a specific PD array. If I talk about a fair value got most of the time. When you hear me mentioned Faraday, you
157 00:31:34,290 --> 00:31:42,330 got a new student that's never really spent the last few weeks with me. They'll think, Okay, well, he thinks it's a bike because right now we're above it. That
158 00:31:42,330 --> 00:31:53,460 doesn't mean what I'm saying that at all, I'm saying that that's why we're watching that next. And if it can go through that I may be bearish. I'm building
159 00:31:53,460 --> 00:32:01,590 the idea that I'm thinking the markets likely to go lower longer term, and I'm going to watch that fair value go, that will be below price, what would that be
160 00:32:01,620 --> 00:32:07,890 indicative of? I want to see it lose ground, I don't want to see it respected at all.
161 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:17,850 So that's the difference with some new Joker that's literally trying to find something to talk about, because he can't fucking make money in Texas, or
162 00:32:18,510 --> 00:32:26,820 someone looking at these things and saying, Okay, what is he taking my attention to for because he's looking at this fair value gap. But he's also talking about
163 00:32:26,820 --> 00:32:37,860 how it can go down to a specific level. So it would seem confusing to a new trader, or new student or new observer. But it's not to someone that's been
164 00:32:37,890 --> 00:32:46,140 watching me, if you've been in the live sessions, also on YouTube, you can see how I talk about how I want to see it, go through this fair value guy, and then
165 00:32:46,140 --> 00:32:57,930 come back down into an act as what support if I'm bullish, I want to see certain things unfold. That is narrative, that cannot be taught, at least I can't, I
166 00:32:57,930 --> 00:33:08,580 don't know how to teach it in a book. Like, I don't know how to write a chapter, I don't know how to send a bunch of tweets. I can't tell you audibly like this.
167 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:19,020 Like, you got to watch me do it. That's the only way I can describe it. And I might not be successful this year. That's what I'm afraid. So that's why I said,
168 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:30,810 you know, if you have any faith, pray for me to be successful. And it's because I'm trying very hard to find a way to reach as many of you as I can, because I
169 00:33:30,810 --> 00:33:44,700 know, I know that there will be some that I won't reach. And it's not for a lack of trying, because I'm fucking drawing. But it's very difficult for me to
170 00:33:44,730 --> 00:33:57,120 explain something that needs to be viewed real time watching it happen, and explaining why this is the case. Which is why most of the people out there that
171 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:05,460 have tried to take my content, and make their own little mentorships and shit. That's why they won't ever do what I'm doing. And Dave, I see your tweet saying
172 00:34:05,460 --> 00:34:13,320 that you do more than me and you know that business. I would love to see you live stream this this week. But don't put all that stuff on your charts. Keep
173 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:19,530 your charts clean, and I'll be able to watch it. I can't watch it when it's all that scribble stuff on here. No disrespect. But you're talking a lot of stuff
174 00:34:19,530 --> 00:34:27,570 right now. And now I want to see you do it. So Dave teaches FX I think it's what's your, your Twitter spaces or something or maybe it's your YouTube
175 00:34:27,570 --> 00:34:36,480 channel. Now, everybody knows about you. And I'll be watching your live stream this week. So entertain me, I want to see what you're doing. If it's
176 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:43,740 foolishness, I'm not going to watch it. Okay. I'm not going to be there to troll you. But I think I know what you're trying to do. So now you got my attention.
177 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:54,780 Show me what you're doing. Okay. But there's a lot of people out there that have tried to try to teach what it is that I do. And they're not doing that right at
178 00:34:54,780 --> 00:35:06,660 all. They're not. It's just like order blocks and that is a topic that I've guarded. Because it's something that I know once you fully understand it, you'll
179 00:35:06,660 --> 00:35:15,510 know exactly what you're doing. Not that you need that specific concept because you don't, because I've not been talking a lot about OtterBox. Lately, it's just
180 00:35:15,510 --> 00:35:34,920 been primarily what? Fair Value apps. So when we see these things live, and you watch me over the shoulder explaining certain things. It's more practical.
181 00:35:36,150 --> 00:35:45,900 Because there's no way for me to be able to tell you. What many of you ask a lot is, How do you know, you know, which one is going to form today? That's the
182 00:35:45,900 --> 00:35:52,290 uncertainty like you see these people out there? They'll say, oh, yeah, it says he knows about the algorithm. But he doesn't know this right? At this moment.
183 00:35:52,350 --> 00:36:01,830 You're right, I don't know where they're gonna open the price up on Sunday. Nobody knows that. And I have to eventually sleep sometimes. So I'm going to
184 00:36:01,830 --> 00:36:10,080 miss moves, that's what I said, you're going to miss moves to, you can't be in every swing. And that's taking things cherry picking out of what I say, and out
185 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:22,110 of context, to make your bullshit narratives. When you want to troll when you want to hate, which is silly, it's your comedy to me. But when we watch price, I
186 00:36:22,110 --> 00:36:32,790 don't know, I do not know, if there's going to be a fair value get within a specific range yet, I don't know that, I have to wait to see if they're going to
187 00:36:33,300 --> 00:36:44,550 book it that way. If it's going to run off and leave it. I don't know if there's going to be a breaker. I don't know that. It might be just the one passed down
188 00:36:44,550 --> 00:36:57,150 and straight up. And no opportunity for a breaker to form. Those are the things that I don't know, I don't know that. Those things, I have to wait for it just
189 00:36:57,150 --> 00:37:08,430 like you have to wait for. But you're learning which is the parts I did say in my lectures and on teachings. that not every PD array is going to form, just
190 00:37:08,430 --> 00:37:18,060 because I've outlined in a matrix saying this is the normal order of everything. You've also been introduced to other PD arrays. Like the new week opening gap,
191 00:37:18,570 --> 00:37:34,320 New Day opening gap, implied fair value gap, fair value gap in that implied there that you got can occur anywhere. And you just have to observe it when it's
192 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:44,550 there. And unfortunately, some of you are already trying to talk about it and point to it and they're not there in your examples. And that's unfortunate,
193 00:37:44,550 --> 00:37:53,160 because you many times have a YouTube channel or you have a following on social media. And because you use the new tenten a new name and term that I've
194 00:37:53,250 --> 00:38:03,600 introduced every one of you. They get excited like, oh, yeah, I see it. And I understand it too. It's, it's many times like watching the guy do a magic trick.
195 00:38:03,750 --> 00:38:11,850 And the guy thinks he knows how to do it. And then he tries it and he fails. And then he's angry that you didn't give him enough time to do it, right. I mean,
196 00:38:12,390 --> 00:38:23,160 it's very, it's very difficult managing all of these personalities. And I've opened up a Pandora's Box. By having all of you like, literally, you where you
197 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:33,690 can reach to me on Twitter, like nobody, nobody can hide your comment. Anyone that sends anything to me, they can see that. I just choose not to listen to
198 00:38:33,690 --> 00:38:42,210 animals. But the biggest trolls none of my biggest trolls are blocked. They're not. They will lie to you and say they are but they're not. And if they say I'm
199 00:38:42,210 --> 00:38:50,520 blocked, they need to log into Twitter and look at my profile right there. And so the 255 250,000 followers and share that they're blocked because they're not.
200 00:38:51,900 --> 00:39:04,680 So when we have opportunities to see things live in the live streams, and when I don't want to do it. Here's kind of like where I'm getting that. And this is
201 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:16,590 what I was doing, I think one day this week where I said I wanted to do something, I was really wrestling with my mood swings. And I was like I can't
202 00:39:16,620 --> 00:39:28,050 there's no way I was going to be able to conduct myself in a manner where it would have been good. I'm not going to be on I will not go on YouTube livestream
203 00:39:28,950 --> 00:39:40,440 and be like I am here. And I knew looking at price even that day because I was angry about one one of my sons. He has a girlfriend that we don't think is
204 00:39:42,660 --> 00:39:52,230 healthy for them right now. They're too young. And there's too much drama with it. So my wife and I had a discussion, and I'm very opinionated about it. I
205 00:39:52,230 --> 00:40:05,040 don't want certain things to be done and she's coming around to my way of seeing things today but that day I just I couldn't I couldn't bring myself to be in a
206 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:13,200 live setting with all of you because I was angry, I was very angry, and there was no way for me to really focus. Even looking at price, it would have been
207 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:22,800 difficult for me to the keep my focus on that. So I just went to Twitter and said, Okay, here's what I see right now, here's what I see right now. And you
208 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:29,490 probably already saw that there wasn't a whole lot of it, but the things I shared was dialed in enough for you all to see that it's still working, and it's
209 00:40:29,490 --> 00:40:29,790 fine.
210 00:40:34,890 --> 00:40:48,960 The idea of these funded accounts in the five handle moves and such. I see a lot of you are getting confident with that now, and I appreciate your willingness to
211 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:59,130 share your observations and such. And I love the fact that I made this much money with this trade, ICT has turned down. I appreciate all of you helping me
212 00:40:59,130 --> 00:41:12,120 in that regard, because it creates an emotionally charged endeavor here where I'm loving what I'm doing. But I don't want anybody to get hurt. And if you're
213 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:23,370 pushing the button, and you're trying to impress me, you're not impressing me. Even if you make a lot of money. I'm going to be angry. Like I'm if if someone's
214 00:41:23,370 --> 00:41:30,750 been trading for a while before I started this mentorship, you know, in some of you obviously have, and you know, you're doing okay, that's one thing, but
215 00:41:30,780 --> 00:41:41,670 anyone that just started training with me this year, and you're trying to do what I'm teaching in a funded account or a Live account, please don't tell me
216 00:41:41,670 --> 00:41:50,610 about it. I don't want to know, okay, because every time someone tells me they're making money, my first question is, how long you've been doing it?
217 00:41:51,630 --> 00:41:58,320 Because if it's something he just did it your first time, then okay, I understand where you're going with it. And I understand your excitement. But if
218 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:07,320 it's something you've been doing for a while, and you're able to land that, then okay, yeah. I like that. I'll appreciate it. And I can hifi that. Yeah, but I
219 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:16,650 don't know how much time you've invested in this. And I don't want to, to inspire you to want to be doing that when you don't know how to trade yet.
220 00:42:17,790 --> 00:42:24,930 Because the whole point of me doing this mentorship with you all this year is to teach you number one, how to read price. When I was doing my mentorship that was
221 00:42:24,930 --> 00:42:35,850 paid for, it was all about watching price. Don't pressure demo account, don't do this, don't do that. Because the outcome is then emotional. And now we're
222 00:42:35,850 --> 00:42:43,860 looking through that looking glass at these candlesticks with an expectation of I have to be right, because now I have money behind it. Because if I'm wrong,
223 00:42:43,890 --> 00:42:59,640 I'm losing money. You see the difference there, it's, it's really hard to to justify how that isn't the best advice, like it's it is the best advice. But it
224 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:06,660 doesn't feel like the best advice when you have something to sell. And you want people to come to your bullshit and try to buy it, whether it be a mentorship or
225 00:43:06,660 --> 00:43:18,540 some horseshit, you know, the pseudo algo box bullshit, because that ain't letting algorithmic that's retail stuff. And when you have these competitions
226 00:43:18,540 --> 00:43:31,140 for everyone's attention, and you're trying to inspire them to go out there and trade. Unfortunately, I know enough to know that the average person doesn't have
227 00:43:31,140 --> 00:43:44,010 the mental faculties to do this. Let alone be doing it quickly and successfully. Regardless of what medium or approach to trading even mine, which I think is
228 00:43:44,010 --> 00:43:50,940 superior to every fucking thing. Like I'm, I'm giving you the marketplace. I'm telling you, I'm showing it to you. I'm proving it to you now and I'm I'm
229 00:43:50,940 --> 00:44:05,610 fucking out there doing it. Dave, we'll see this week only. The the worst thing you can do is be inspired by me or anyone else to go out there and try to trade
230 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:13,440 and feel like you're ready. Because the same people that tell you to do that they're falling on their face when they try to do it right in front of you in
231 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:26,280 their live streams. Or they won't ever do it. They won't ever step out there and tell you what they think real time every fucking day. Because they know they
232 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:38,850 will fail. And they'll pull some comedy show that try to cover it up. No, there's no emotion. There's no emotion. It's, this is what it is. Mark is going
233 00:44:38,850 --> 00:44:47,160 to do this or the market is going to do that. If you don't know you say you don't know. But you better not say I don't know every day. Because then guess
234 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:59,280 what? You don't know. And there's a lot of people that are upset right now. Because your attention is being placed with what I'm sharing and what you're
235 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:09,030 doing right now. You're listening to me talk about something to them, you shouldn't be listening to this, you should be listening to them. Because they're
236 00:45:09,030 --> 00:45:18,270 showing you something that has a price tag on it, I have nothing that with a price tag on it, I have the truth. I'm showing it to you and proven it to you.
237 00:45:19,260 --> 00:45:28,410 So when you look at me and what I'm sharing, you're looking through that looking glass, and you should be seeing fucking proof evidence.
238 00:45:34,050 --> 00:45:50,910 There's a lot of YouTubers out there that I hope I can help. And I'm not asking any of you to represent me, not even to advertise for me, nothing. I'm not
239 00:45:50,910 --> 00:46:04,800 looking for that. I'm not looking for that at all. But there are a great number of you that genuinely do not know what the hell you're doing. And some of them
240 00:46:04,830 --> 00:46:13,050 are very entertaining, crashing and burning. And you know who you are Texas, Pete. But there's other ones that are very sincere out there, that they are
241 00:46:13,500 --> 00:46:26,370 cordial to their audience. They're very respectful, Mom new, modest. And they just aren't doing very well. They're not really doing well. And, like, I want to
242 00:46:26,370 --> 00:46:35,310 save them. Okay, I got this white knight complex. And some of you men don't know what this feels like. The I the same thing with my first wife. She had a lot of
243 00:46:35,310 --> 00:46:43,890 issues. And I wanted to be the knight in shining armor. I wanted to help her. I wanted to save her from her issue. And that's pretty much at the core of my
244 00:46:43,890 --> 00:46:55,620 heart, why I teach the way I do. I am sympathetic to all of you because I know exactly how all of you feel. You feel like you're alone, you feel like you need
245 00:46:55,620 --> 00:47:00,960 support and who the hell you're going to get the support from your friends and family don't know anything about this shit. And they don't believe that it can
246 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:11,250 be possible. And it's not the same thing. Just reading other people's tweets and reading other people's social media stuff. Or listening to people with their
247 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:22,020 sports cars, and their vacations and shit. But they're not showing you them executing trades. Here's a trade I took. Memory, you're looking through that
248 00:47:22,020 --> 00:47:35,730 Looking Glass. What are you seeing when you look around me included? Through that Lookingglass Are you seeing a reason to invest your time in whatever it is
249 00:47:35,730 --> 00:47:49,470 that you're looking at, or in this case listening to. Because if it is not capturing you, overtaking you, and subduing you and holding you and your
250 00:47:49,470 --> 00:48:04,770 attention, because you see obvious signs of professionalism, precision logic that makes perfect sense. That is explained before it happens. Not ambiguous,
251 00:48:04,770 --> 00:48:13,470 not 5050. Now it might do this, it might do that, which is what everybody that doesn't like me will say, but they're leaving out the parts where I say, but
252 00:48:13,470 --> 00:48:20,940 this is what I want to have happen. This is what I'm looking for. I'm waiting for this. This is my setup, this is my trade. If I'm wrong, this is what it's
253 00:48:20,940 --> 00:48:30,180 going to do. And I won't be I won't be in the trade, I won't, I won't be hurt by it. Because I'm looking for this trade to unfold. That's what you want to learn
254 00:48:30,180 --> 00:48:42,900 from a person that can obviously outline what makes this work. How will you fail? How can I do certain steps to avoid failing? Avoiding entirely is
255 00:48:42,900 --> 00:48:55,110 impossible. But much like when you're in flight school, and you're trying to learn how to fly. What's one of the things they put you through as a pilot, you
256 00:48:55,110 --> 00:49:12,150 ever think about that? They take you up there. And they tell you to turn the fucking engine off. While you're in the fucking air. Like what? Are you kidding
257 00:49:12,150 --> 00:49:22,410 me? But hey, they got to teach you how to do what a controlled landing you might take off. It might be beautiful. You're up here in the sky. You're sailing
258 00:49:22,410 --> 00:49:29,040 around, looking down thinking this is great. And then your instructor says, Oh, by the way, today's the day where we tell you to turn the fucking engine off.
259 00:49:29,700 --> 00:49:39,450 Figure it out. And I'm sure that there's a great deal of anxiety when it happens. I'm sure that you know everyone that thinks that they're gonna be ready
260 00:49:39,450 --> 00:49:46,320 for that moment because everyone that goes into flight school knows that that's coming. And maybe they don't have it announced. I'm trying to be funny,
261 00:49:46,320 --> 00:50:02,790 obviously because I'm not a pilot. But I couldn't do that. I honestly I know. I know. I'd flip out. There's no way there's first of all I could not have the the
262 00:50:02,790 --> 00:50:11,910 focus, you wouldn't want me. You wouldn't want ratchet ICT fine your ass anywhere in an airplane, because we're probably going to get down real fast and
263 00:50:11,910 --> 00:50:28,920 not to down you want to get down with and so. So then imagine that same thing occurring in trading. That's what's happening when you get out there with life
264 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:35,670 funds, live money, listening to people that tell you to get there and trade sooner than you should, when they themselves can't prove that they're doing it
265 00:50:35,670 --> 00:50:50,310 right either. And you can't build your faith in anyone based on here's a trade I took. Here's our trade I took approach to selling something is the worst
266 00:50:50,310 --> 00:50:58,590 possible thing in the world. But unfortunately, in this industry, looking through the looking glass, you're gonna look for what you want to see,
267 00:50:59,220 --> 00:51:10,140 especially if you're really new. And what I try to do is the number one responsible as a mentor, I'm not trying to take anyone down the primrose lane.
268 00:51:11,010 --> 00:51:19,800 And if I was a fucking fraud and a failure at doing this, you would have seen it by now, you absolutely would have seen it by now, my calls would have been
269 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:28,230 failing miserably, they would not be going exactly where I said is gonna go when I said it was gonna go there. So I'm a little bit different. I'm cut from a
270 00:51:28,230 --> 00:51:38,790 different cloth to everybody else. And that's fine. That's exactly how I want it to be. I'm not going to teach everything that makes me who I am. I'm not
271 00:51:38,790 --> 00:51:47,850 obligated to do that. But I can teach the rest of my life. And that's fine. That's great. I'm keeping my promise. But I did not. I didn't accept this
272 00:51:47,850 --> 00:51:58,710 responsibility under the guise that I have to what? teach everything I know, because I can't. But what I've already taught, if I stopped right now, you are
273 00:51:58,710 --> 00:52:15,420 light years ahead of every fucking Mickey Mouse bullshit that's out there. You literally have you have an unbelievable arsenal. But much like when you first
274 00:52:15,420 --> 00:52:27,030 handled a firearm, here we are, we're talking about topics. I'm like that. Look past that, okay? You never handled an AR 15 never broke it down, never cleaned
275 00:52:27,030 --> 00:52:37,170 it never did any of that stuff. Well, until you do it, you don't know, right. And that's what this is like, you have to be conditioned, you have to be
276 00:52:37,170 --> 00:52:49,260 trained. And then after a while it becomes second nature, you just know, you know. And maybe some of you are going to have to take a little bit more time
277 00:52:49,260 --> 00:52:57,930 than just this year. And guess what, that's absolutely acceptable. It's acceptable. And you have to give yourself permission. Because if you wrestle
278 00:52:57,930 --> 00:53:05,880 with that are fearful. What if I don't learn because I've told you there's a deadline to meet doing this everyday live streaming stuff. Obviously, you've
279 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:14,040 seen this week, it wasn't everyday wasn't. I tried to prepare yourself because there's sometimes my personal life may take precedence. Remember, I'm not
280 00:53:14,070 --> 00:53:30,300 obligated do this. But you're going to find that if you're pressing yourself into a time delivery of you being successful, when you do that, and when you do
281 00:53:30,300 --> 00:53:45,480 this with everything that you try to rush through, like, like weight loss, or gaining muscle, or trying to get flexible. Whatever it is, you can't force a
282 00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:53,430 timeline, deadline, this is when it's going to have to be you don't know, you don't know when you're going to hit that weight goal. You don't know when you're
283 00:53:53,430 --> 00:54:03,360 gonna get that benchpress goal. You don't know when you're going to get that threshold of crossing over. In your experience where you know, you can trade
284 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:14,880 live funds, none of you can time that none of you can do that. None of you. Why? Because you have no idea with the variable rate of understanding is going to be
285 00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:28,890 for you. It's all unique to you. You can't say learn it in 40 days and learn in 120 days learn it in six months, one week workshop. It that's nonsense. That's
286 00:54:28,890 --> 00:54:36,210 absolute nonsense. You can't do those things and expect the outcome to be universally the same. Absolutely not. And it's not even going to be in the
287 00:54:36,210 --> 00:54:44,970 majority. That's why these people that market that kind of stuff. They fail. That's why they're failing. And they don't like what they're seeing with me
288 00:54:44,970 --> 00:54:53,430 because they see me teaching what a demo. They see people going out what I'm teaching with the demo. They're going out there and making six figures with real
289 00:54:53,430 --> 00:55:05,730 money and being interviewed by companies that paid them that money that's hurting their ass. They're out assholes are chapped. And I love that. There's
290 00:55:05,730 --> 00:55:12,150 nothing you can do about that. You can't argue it. You can't wrestle with it. I mean, yes, you can wrestle with it, but you're gonna lose.
291 00:55:15,210 --> 00:55:22,980 And all of you that are paying attention and look around, you're seeing folks do that. And I had an inbox for shit like that new. And you're all going to see
292 00:55:22,980 --> 00:55:32,010 their faces. And I'm going to do my best to have a outline the same questions I'm going to ask, I'm going to let each person know what they are. So that way,
293 00:55:32,010 --> 00:55:37,890 they're not put on the spot, they can talk freely, they have already collected their thoughts about how I'm going to, because I don't want to be longer than an
294 00:55:37,890 --> 00:55:47,430 hour. That way, I'm going to ask the questions, and I'm going to sit there and let them talk. I don't need to be her I'm, well, I want them to tell me what
295 00:55:47,430 --> 00:55:54,870 they've done with their routine is, how did they get started? What was their biggest fear that they overcame? Where's their? Where's their goals? And what's
296 00:55:54,870 --> 00:56:02,010 your plan on getting there? These are the types of questions I'm going to ask. And everybody's going to have shit different. And that's going to be
297 00:56:02,010 --> 00:56:08,910 interesting. I know, it's gonna for me, it's gonna be I don't give a shit. And my boss likes it. I'm giving these students the opportunity for me to sit down
298 00:56:08,910 --> 00:56:19,950 with them. It's closest face to face can be Yes, I will show my face there. And you'll see I have more than one white cap. I have other colors too, guys. I
299 00:56:19,950 --> 00:56:32,640 might shave my head because everybody wants to see me bald. Summertime, I might do it. I'm afraid of it. So the good grades. You'll hear these folks give you
300 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:43,620 their stories, and share and I'm going to treasure that. Like, that's exactly what I want this to morph into. I'm doing this because I want all of you to be
301 00:56:43,650 --> 00:56:52,320 generous with your story with me, tell me what it is that you're doing. If you want notoriety, apparently I have an audience that looks at this stuff. And I'm
302 00:56:52,320 --> 00:57:00,960 going to share if you want me to not that I'm going to do it without your blessing. But if you want your socials shared, you know, I'm going to give you
303 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:11,100 the opportunity to do that. So it gives you a stage it like there's a young man out there, Paladin, he's trying to get a course together how to how to beat
304 00:57:11,100 --> 00:57:19,620 these funded accounts and have you know, all that stuff. He might be teaching some of the stuff that he uses while he's doing it, that he's learned from me. I
305 00:57:19,620 --> 00:57:30,210 don't give a fuck. Okay, I don't care. Because number one, he's publicly stated that, you know, I had a small f a small part of what he was able to do. And
306 00:57:30,660 --> 00:57:38,490 that's wonderful, because now they know me. And then when they hear me, they talk about, you know, how did you learn, and I gave all the glory to God. That's
307 00:57:38,490 --> 00:57:46,170 how I want it. That's the exchange rate here. Okay, that's all I want. But he, you know, he was trying to he's trying to build a course or whatever you know,
308 00:57:46,170 --> 00:57:56,130 or some kind of mentorship to get funded and in pass some, you know what, go for it. That's something I'd get behind. So you don't want to do it. And some of you
309 00:57:56,130 --> 00:58:07,230 may be wanting to run signal services. And guess what, I have a lot of students that can't do this. When's the last time you heard any educator, any Guru Guru?
310 00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:21,000 tell you, they got failed students. Everybody makes money with their bullshit, right? Get the fuck out of here. It's real. I don't lie. The bottom line is
311 00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:31,200 this, this stuff is complex. This skill set isn't going to happen overnight. And a lot of people came to me like they go to anybody else. Give me a one to three
312 00:58:31,230 --> 00:58:38,340 fast track. I need to learn how to make money right now I'm broke. And if you can't do it, you're a fraud. Fuck you. How's that work for you? The bottom line
313 00:58:38,340 --> 00:58:51,120 is this, you're going to work your ass off in this industry. No matter what you do, period. Period. And time is going to be a whole lot more spent than you
314 00:58:51,120 --> 00:59:03,900 wanted to spend. It's going to take you longer, it's going to be more effort on your part. You want to learn how to trade I've already taught you. You want a
315 00:59:03,900 --> 00:59:12,240 routine on how to go in and do those things. That's exactly what I'm teaching you this year. A day in and day out. This is what we're looking for. This is
316 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:21,390 what it looks like. This is how it repeats and we aren't afraid of signals drying up and not working anymore. I know that I'm going to have a setup. And
317 00:59:21,390 --> 00:59:28,200 this is what pisses people off. They don't like me. I always have something I always have ace up my sleeve. You're damn right I do. Because that was a
318 00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:40,320 weakness. I needed to know I had more weapons than just a stochastic and a moving average. Because that shit didn't hold up long. In the markets are more
319 00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:50,880 dynamic than just one way. You have to have a tool that is useful for any market profile. It doesn't mean that you're going to trade every single time because
320 00:59:50,880 --> 01:00:00,840 you have that tool. It just means that you know enough that the thing you're probably going to use if you were less equipped experience If you would have
321 01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:06,510 tried to use in an environment, which is what most of my students, when they first come to my YouTube channel, they think everything's a fucking optimal
322 01:00:06,510 --> 01:00:17,910 trade entry. They think every rally up is gonna set up a sell. And every rally down is gonna set up along. And they send me emails, they'll say things in the
323 01:00:17,910 --> 01:00:25,290 comment section. You know, I tried to optimal trade entry, and I get stopped out how do you know which one's the optimal trade entry? Well, what are you doing
324 01:00:25,290 --> 01:00:35,040 wrong? Looking to Lookingglass you're looking for entries only. You have no context as to what you're doing. There's no narrative being applied to the
325 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:45,060 chart, you have been consulted the higher timeframe. So is it surprising why you're looking at something on the smallest degree of importance, which is the
326 01:00:45,060 --> 01:00:56,700 entry. I've stated this so many times, and it's almost like you guys don't want to believe me when I'm being honest. Entry patterns are numerous, there's so
327 01:00:56,700 --> 01:01:07,980 many entry techniques to get you into the moves. But there's only one side of the narrative that's going to develop in price, that's it, you're not going to
328 01:01:07,980 --> 01:01:15,660 change that the buying selling pressure doesn't change it, the narrative is going to unfold. And that's just the way it is. And if you're not able to get on
329 01:01:15,660 --> 01:01:26,940 side with that, that means get in alignment, get in sync with it. Any entry techniques, I can give you the best ones I have. And it's gonna fucking fail for
330 01:01:26,940 --> 01:01:36,990 you because you aren't looking at what you're not looking at the underlying pinnings of the marketplace, what makes this market most likely to go higher,
331 01:01:36,990 --> 01:01:44,340 and we're gonna how's it going, just because you think it's going up? Where's it going to, because if you don't know that, you're going to overstay your welcome
332 01:01:44,430 --> 01:01:56,040 or exit far too soon. And if you look at what I'm teaching, and how I teach it, I'm teaching you when the time to market when to build a model that is bullish
333 01:01:56,070 --> 01:02:04,920 when the bearish model is expected when the market is going to be in consolidation, and try not to be expanding, with your expanded but entering with
334 01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:15,270 your trades, expecting the market to expand out of that range, because it's most likely to do what consolidate a hit of a big report. So you're not going to,
335 01:02:15,690 --> 01:02:28,650 you're not going to be guessing you're not you don't want to go into this guessing if, if at the end of this year, you're feeling like you have no idea
336 01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:41,550 where you're at in price. I promise you this, you did not pay attention. You did not take notes, and you did not back test. And that's the bottom line. That is
337 01:02:41,550 --> 01:02:49,560 the absolute truth. And I know that there's going to be people that are going to be lazy as fuck this year, they're only going to watch the videos are only going
338 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:58,230 to watch the last change and try to get trades out of what I'm saying. And then they've learned nothing. And there'll be the same Yahoo's that were paying me
339 01:02:58,230 --> 01:03:06,690 money to learn how to do this. And I'm calling the market every single fucking day, every single month. And it's going where I say it's gonna go. And I'm
340 01:03:06,690 --> 01:03:14,790 proving the concepts work. And here it is, it's going on and on and on, I got people that make money in that group, whether it be the 2016 group, or the 2021,
341 01:03:14,790 --> 01:03:22,590 the last one, every one of those groups, every one of those years, I have winning profitable students. Every single one of those groups, I have students
342 01:03:22,590 --> 01:03:34,230 that have never made a dime with it. What's the common denominator? They have not done what I'm telling them to do. And they've done everything I told them
343 01:03:34,230 --> 01:03:46,590 not to do. The ones that end up making money. They're the ones that maybe they fucked off in the beginning, tried their own way, mentorship stuff, last learn
344 01:03:46,590 --> 01:03:54,090 from that, and then started doing what I said. Or they never fucked off and he followed my instructions and right from the beginning, found their way into
345 01:03:54,090 --> 01:04:03,600 profitability. I'm sorry that it's harder than you thought it was going to be. But that doesn't make me a fucking frog. When I'm out here proving every fucking
346 01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:15,270 day. Sorry. Sorry. It must suck to be you. Because you're literally looking outside yourself for a reason to exist and live with yourself. Because if you
347 01:04:15,270 --> 01:04:25,140 think that this stuff doesn't work, after seeing as much of the evidence of this on a day by day basis, with such a degree of precision, you are the problem.
348 01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:40,380 Just like I was the problem when I first started, but you don't want to recognize that trading. This industry is the looking glass. What do you see when
349 01:04:40,380 --> 01:04:49,830 you see through it? Do you see problems that you got to work on? character flaws that you have to correct? Build coping mechanisms.
350 01:04:51,660 --> 01:05:00,660 being bipolar, it's not a matter of what I eat, folks. I appreciate some of you that are sending me that shit. But it has nothing to do with it. It It's all in
351 01:05:00,660 --> 01:05:16,080 my brain. Okay, I'm literally struggling to be sane, sometimes it's very difficult. And I will not ever take a drug that is going to make me not focus,
352 01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:25,980 like I need to be focusing, I will live the rest of my life like this wrestling with it and it sucks. It does, it sucks. But I will never be medicated. I will
353 01:05:25,980 --> 01:05:40,620 not. So you know, that's the, that's the wrestling match I chose to be in. But you're gonna, you're gonna see things through this industry and other people.
354 01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:51,870 You're gonna see arrogance, when there isn't any justification for it, you're gonna see modesty when they should be beating their chest, you're gonna see
355 01:05:51,870 --> 01:06:06,840 folks fail miserably in deny that it was them. Them, not the material, not the concepts that other people around the world are doing the same stuff with it, as
356 01:06:06,870 --> 01:06:18,360 well, not the same stuff. But they're using the same concepts. And they're making real money, life changing money. Some of you are new, and you haven't had
357 01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:31,440 that experience yet. And I will have that interview with you as well. If you're willing to have it, no problem. I would love to continue that part. into 2024.
358 01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:39,150 and beyond. I'd like to do like a one, one a week type thing. That way, it allows me number one to live my life once we get through this, because I don't
359 01:06:39,150 --> 01:06:45,720 want to be doing everyday interview because it takes time to be doing all that stuff. And I don't want to be held to a schedule. But I would love to be able to
360 01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:57,570 sit down with one each week, maybe only on a Friday. And it's an hour long in time. That's what my plan is. And just listen to someone that has gone through
361 01:06:57,570 --> 01:07:06,780 it. You know, I would love to see people come in and say yeah, I thought you were a fucking scammer. I thought you were a scammer and a fraudster. And then,
362 01:07:06,990 --> 01:07:13,470 you know, I just figured I'm gonna take this guy's shit, and challenge it and prove it wrong. And then now I'm making money and just the best decision I've
363 01:07:13,470 --> 01:07:21,060 ever made. i That's the, that's the interviews, I'm waiting to have it because I understand. I have a lot of supporters and you guys are making money. And that's
364 01:07:21,060 --> 01:07:31,620 wonderful. I really get off, I get my rocks off when I have someone converted. Like, I feel like I've, you know, I've really earned something there. I've gone
365 01:07:31,620 --> 01:07:39,120 through a lot of shit over the years and listen to a lot of shit. And willfully put myself in the situation where I'm going to catch a lot of shit. Because I'm
366 01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:48,840 literally out here demo ball. And, and I've done it for years, and you can't say anything that's gonna hurt me. Because I have the goods, I can prove it. And I'm
367 01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:56,010 gonna do it, you're faced with a demo account, and you can't find profitability and end of the shit you're doing. So it's, it's been fun for me to do that. And
368 01:07:56,010 --> 01:08:05,850 the people that have looked at what I do, and look past the things I told you just look past that. If it's real, you'll see it. If it resonates with you run
369 01:08:05,850 --> 01:08:14,640 with it. And if you have the passion to stick with it, you will be profitable. You will fucking make fucking money here. And that's just the way it is. But you
370 01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:25,500 have to be here every day learning what it is that you have to discover is going to be the reasons why you're going to derail. Because you will, and how you
371 01:08:25,500 --> 01:08:39,570 react, and how you think about yourself, your trading and this industry, once you experience loss. One of the best things that could ever happen is for you to
372 01:08:39,570 --> 01:08:49,860 experience losing an account. What do you say? Yeah, that's the worst. That's the worst thing in your mind that could ever happen right now as a student,
373 01:08:49,860 --> 01:09:00,090 right? That's the worst thing. How could anybody say that's the best thing, because you will know what it feels like to have one moment where you didn't
374 01:09:00,090 --> 01:09:12,240 even see it coming. And then boom, you don't have anything in the account. At least not enough to take another trade. I think every trader needs to experience
375 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:22,440 that. Because then you'll respect the risk. What happens if you do blow an account, but you don't respect the risk and you go out there and you just do the
376 01:09:22,440 --> 01:09:34,320 same thing with a second one. Here's what you're not observing what you're seeing in that. But ignoring is that you are impulsive and a gambler. And that
377 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:46,230 means you have to do some work. You have to correct that. And it's not easy because you are the person that's driving that. And you're doing it recklessly
378 01:09:46,230 --> 01:09:58,680 because you need an outward outside of you. Confirmation. That's why you're doing it. You're trying to do something a Olympic sized over leveraging an
379 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:09,930 account trying to get some kind of big win. So that way you can feel like you are formidable. You can make a lot of money. Look at this, this makes you this
380 01:10:09,930 --> 01:10:18,060 makes you a good trader. No, it doesn't. It does not make you a good trader, it makes you an impulsive gambler. And guess what sometimes impulsive gamblers go
381 01:10:18,060 --> 01:10:27,300 into casinos and make a lot of money. But impulsive gamblers don't go to casinos every day or every week or every month of the year and make lots of money.
382 01:10:28,290 --> 01:10:38,250 professional gamblers are not impulsive gamblers. They're calculated money managers, and they're utilizing the cards as what they're multiplier. They don't
383 01:10:38,250 --> 01:10:45,810 know what the next turn on that card is going to be. They don't know what hands gonna be given to them, they don't know. And they embrace that uncertainty,
384 01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:53,460 which is the equivalent of us doing what in trading, we don't know what that next candle is going to do. They could drop a bomb somewhere. And boom, the
385 01:10:53,460 --> 01:10:59,910 market gaps completely outside, what's your start with your chart showing especially some of you where I was talking about today in lecture this morning.
386 01:11:01,050 --> 01:11:09,840 You're so zoomed in, and you had just a handful of candlesticks, like the it's only going to move 10 handles at most, like you'd have to have some data on your
387 01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:20,340 chart. That's the reason why you're not holding your trades as long. Because you have no, you have no visibility, you're too close to the forest, or too close to
388 01:11:20,340 --> 01:11:32,850 the trees to see the forest. You have your nose on one tree. And the only thing you can see is that bark on that one tree. That's exactly what every YouTuber is
389 01:11:32,850 --> 01:11:45,150 doing. There isn't one youtuber out there that I've seen that has enough data on their chart to make balanced decisions. You're looking at it too close. And when
390 01:11:45,150 --> 01:11:54,210 you do get a winner, I'm in your audience. Sometimes I'm thinking myself, What are you talking about? You're gonna close it fucking snowing. But it's it's your
391 01:11:54,210 --> 01:12:05,280 trade and it would be rude of me. It would be rude of me to overtake and say this is what's going to happen. But I have sometimes tossed out numbers. Like
392 01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:16,740 here, like a, like a, like a gentle nudge, like here, look there, look there. And then not don't take your profits in the next five handles. And I don't, I
393 01:12:16,740 --> 01:12:24,600 don't want to override someone when they're in a live stream. Because it's rude. And that's already bad enough when I show up and I try to help someone with
394 01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:33,120 their, with their audience and help build them up and tell them you know, I'm on your audience right now. I'm watching what you're doing. And invariably, the
395 01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:42,330 folks that know that I'm there, or if I invite all of you, hey, ICTs in the house. It's not I don't want you doing that. And it's rude. It would piss me
396 01:12:42,330 --> 01:12:52,860 off. It would drive me fucking crazy. Like, like, seriously, like, I understand if you somebody showed up in the live setting in their celebrity, but I'm not a
397 01:12:52,860 --> 01:13:05,250 fucking celebrity. I'm literally nobody. And given my given you my attention for giving me your attention in somebody else's live streaming chat box is rude.
398 01:13:05,550 --> 01:13:18,480 That's fucking rude. Don't do that. But the same YouTubers who I sometimes, but door because they are doing something that takes a lot of balls to do it. And
399 01:13:18,990 --> 01:13:30,870 seeing them discover themselves in the presence of other people. Man, that takes a shit that takes a lot of courage, a lot of courage. And, Patrick, if you're
400 01:13:30,870 --> 01:13:44,730 listening, my advice, and you can take this with a grain of salt. But I guarantee you if you don't engage the chat, and you just do you let them say
401 01:13:44,730 --> 01:13:51,270 whatever the fuck they're gonna say, Who cares? The chat window, whoever is talking to chat window, they're not really fucking worried about price. They're
402 01:13:51,270 --> 01:13:58,620 just hanging out. They want to be a part of the clique. That's what that all is. And you're they're not gonna learn anything anyway. So just let them have fun in
403 01:13:58,620 --> 01:14:07,860 there, who cares. But if you're there doing what you're doing, I mean, you can find trades. I mean, we can see you doing it, man. Just focus on what it is
404 01:14:07,860 --> 01:14:16,710 you're doing. And fuck the bullshit. Don't let them don't let them distract you. That's why I will never do that. I can't have a window where people can talk
405 01:14:16,710 --> 01:14:24,960 because I'm going to look at the cars going by and I'm going to chase the right one. That's what they want. They want me distracted. I'm not going to give that
406 01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:37,110 to him. I'm not going to do that. And you're easily taken out of gear, bro. And when you lock it down, the best thing you could do is just turn that shit off.
407 01:14:37,410 --> 01:14:42,660 Not for the members. Let them go there and talk that's fine. But you don't look at it.
408 01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:53,610 Just have a one way conversation, man. People are there to listen to you. That's why they're coming. When I show up and I'm in your stream. I'm there to watch
409 01:14:53,640 --> 01:15:02,400 you. I'm there. I'm watching you and watching your mannerisms. I'm reading your face. I'm reading your eyes. as I'm watching how you talk, I'm watching you
410 01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:09,390 fidget around in your chair, I'm watching you shift around, I'm watching, you get frustrated when I'm at work, and I'm listening to how you talk to yourself.
411 01:15:11,430 --> 01:15:23,400 I'm watching all that stuff. To me. It's a social experiment, I'm watching you find yourself. And I'm also watching you wrestle yourself. And this is exactly
412 01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:32,280 what I talk about all the time, which is the reason why I invite everybody to go to you. Because if you wrestle all these things you're competing with inside
413 01:15:32,280 --> 01:15:40,920 you. And I hope you're not being offended by what I'm saying here. Because I'm saying everything with love, bro, I'm not trying to judge you, I'm nothing I'm
414 01:15:40,920 --> 01:15:49,830 saying here should be viewed as negative. Like, I'm telling you that what you're doing is very courageous. And I'm hoping that you will be successful more than
415 01:15:49,830 --> 01:16:01,170 you already are. And I'm hoping that you just just consider what I'm saying. And just try it out. It might not work for you. And that's fine. I'm not trying to
416 01:16:01,530 --> 01:16:09,570 take credit for anything that you do in the future, all I'm trying to do is be a help, that's all. But what you go through, and the things that you're
417 01:16:09,570 --> 01:16:19,950 experiencing, and then you say, oh, fuck this fucking trade this, that's negative self talk. And that negative self talk has such an impact, such a huge
418 01:16:19,980 --> 01:16:30,600 impact on what you're going to do. And you're and you're doing it, you're doing it in a setting that's absolutely incredible in terms of difficulty, which takes
419 01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:41,910 huge fucking balls. Like to do that number one, in front of anybody, you know, in a live audience setting takes takes a lot of courage. And if you're trying to
420 01:16:41,940 --> 01:16:51,870 discover what it is that you're going to be excelling in as a trader, while doing that, and allowing other people to give you feedback, and sometimes you
421 01:16:51,870 --> 01:17:00,510 know what's gonna happen, tassels are gonna show up. Because they suck, they literally can't do it themselves. And they want to make themselves feel good if
422 01:17:00,510 --> 01:17:10,980 they can wreck your mindset. So deny on that, and still do what you're doing. If you're distracted with what other people are saying, like, why don't you try to
423 01:17:10,980 --> 01:17:20,280 trade like this? And why don't you? Fuck that opinion or question Who gives a shit? You know, what you want to do? When you see the chart? Like anybody else,
424 01:17:20,430 --> 01:17:28,620 doesn't mean it's right doesn't mean it's wrong. And that's the thing you're looking for. You're waiting for that thing. And if you let other people get
425 01:17:28,620 --> 01:17:37,110 inside your head, and take your mind off of what it is you're looking for, whether it be a student of mine, or whether it be someone that's pretending to
426 01:17:37,110 --> 01:17:43,050 be a student of mine by talking shit about me, which I think is really what's going on. I think there's people out there and you know who I'm talking about.
427 01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:51,960 They're trying to make our community like a bunch of assholes by going in other live streamers and shit. And that's why I'm not going to invite anybody anymore.
428 01:17:52,560 --> 01:18:02,640 Because that's what's been going on. But I'm just I you know, what, YouTubers I'm listening to. Patrick, you know, I'm in yours. chased by Matt, you know, I'm
429 01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:11,100 in yours. And other YouTubers are just uploads. There's any other ones? I'm not going to tell you who they are, because I use their chat windows for sentiment.
430 01:18:11,970 --> 01:18:18,210 And I don't want them to think I'm being an asshole, because that's not what it is. I have nothing against the youtubers themselves. But they have a rich chat
431 01:18:18,210 --> 01:18:34,740 window. That is a wonderful sentiment indicator. So I've heard that before. But Patrick posted a comment about how and he's he's also said it several times in
432 01:18:34,740 --> 01:18:47,490 his live streams. I'm talking about Patrick Whelan. He does a live stream every morning on YouTube, and trades the morning session such and I think he's a cool
433 01:18:47,490 --> 01:18:59,400 character. He's funny a lot of times. And I'm, I'm very interested in seeing how he finds himself and all that, but still, hopefully maintains that character
434 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:13,290 because it's edgy. It is going to work really, really well. If he knows what he's doing. And he's consistent with it. Not. There's a lot of emotion in which
435 01:19:13,290 --> 01:19:23,490 is normal. Like he he's he's a rollercoaster of emotions, which many times I think is why people go to watch him. And when he makes it and kills it. Yeah,
436 01:19:23,550 --> 01:19:35,280 he's doing his normal every day, man flex where he gets the touchdown. He does his dance. And you know, he's cheerleading himself whatever. That question he
437 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:47,730 posed several times about how he needs to find a way to hold on to these trades a little bit longer. And then now when he tries to do that he gets burned
438 01:19:47,730 --> 01:19:56,520 because he has winning trades and turns back on him. And I think he's dabbling with the idea of doing partials which Patrick that is the absolute best fucking
439 01:19:56,520 --> 01:20:04,860 thing in the world, because they always make money, partials. Always profit every single fucking time there's never been a partial profit that didn't make
440 01:20:04,860 --> 01:20:18,870 money. That's that's an absolute 100% win every single time as 100% win rate, you can't beat it, it is what it is. The problem is, once you taste 4000 $5,000,
441 01:20:18,870 --> 01:20:29,280 winning days, the impulses to keep chasing that like that first high, you know, when you see these folks in the eighth row back when I was younger, you would
442 01:20:29,280 --> 01:20:38,520 see these folks on cocaine, and that first time they took cocaine, like they want to chase that high that never get it again, they never can get that same
443 01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:47,550 one again. But they constant keep going back to it wanting to get that same high. I don't have personal experience in that shit. But in the 80s, that was
444 01:20:47,550 --> 01:20:59,340 the drug of choice. And we saw a lot of it. And it was in the movies, it was in culture, it was new, that was the the fashion drug at the time. When you're
445 01:20:59,340 --> 01:21:10,200 trading, and you get that high of a big win, that's a high that you want to get back almost limitlessly like you want as soon as you get out of the trade,
446 01:21:10,470 --> 01:21:19,320 you're thinking, hey, that was great. Let me go again, like there's something in the chart, it's gonna give you that same 15 handle run again, it's done, like
447 01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:33,930 you got to stop. So a lot of the things that I hear him talk about whether he realizes it is some of the things I've been talking about in my lectures. I'm
448 01:21:33,930 --> 01:21:45,150 using him as like a model to help coach while I'm not actively saying I'm teaching him, I'm using the things that he's making public as a point of concern
449 01:21:45,150 --> 01:21:57,360 for himself, or personal goals, or he's reflecting on what he feels he's done incorrectly and wishes he had a way to overcome it. I'm using that that model of
450 01:21:57,360 --> 01:22:07,860 him, then where he what he's focusing on are contending with. I'm using that in my lectures. So while I'm not drawing special attention, obviously, you know
451 01:22:07,860 --> 01:22:23,970 now, but I'm not trying to say, look, I'm your mentor. That's not what it is. I'm just trying to be a help at all. And hopefully, by this real world, person
452 01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:35,130 trying to do this, if you can learn from the advice I'm giving in say he doesn't take this in consideration, and doesn't do anything with it, or tries and says
453 01:22:35,130 --> 01:22:43,230 it didn't work for me, okay, that's fine. Somebody else that's listening to everything I'm doing might warm up the idea and it fits them perfectly. It may
454 01:22:43,230 --> 01:22:51,480 be the very things that they've wrestled with. And and now they figured out that that thing that was a hindrance, the thing that was the problem, the rock in
455 01:22:51,480 --> 01:23:00,450 their shoe, if you will they once they remove it, then they can walk you without a limp, they can get right to where they're going no, no reason to feel like
456 01:23:00,450 --> 01:23:13,410 you're being impeded and slow down, they won't have that fear of holding on to a trade. They won't have a fear of being stopped out because they know what
457 01:23:13,410 --> 01:23:22,350 they're looking for. It's going to repeat over and over and over again. And it's one thing to have a model that you think is good when you first start finding
458 01:23:22,380 --> 01:23:37,680 profitability. That might be a profitable model. But what tends to happen is you try to demand more than what the model can provide. And that's the reason why I
459 01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:51,420 have to have for me, I have to have different setups. I'm not comfortable accepting a one trick, one pony type thing, you know, I can't I my mind won't
460 01:23:51,420 --> 01:24:01,170 let that happen. Especially knowing what I know about price and how it delivers. I know there's a plethora of things that I can utilize to get into other setups.
461 01:24:02,340 --> 01:24:11,550 And I tried to showcase that. And unfortunately, what that has done is created an insatiable desire for everyone else to do all those things too. And you're
462 01:24:11,550 --> 01:24:20,820 equating that is the only way of determining success with me, or you're not a real ICT student. Unless you could do everything that I've ever talked about.
463 01:24:21,150 --> 01:24:30,660 And that's not true. All you need to be able to do is fine one setup, and I've done my best and I don't know how to do it any better than stripping it down to
464 01:24:30,660 --> 01:24:37,530 simply five handles. And I talked about in our Twitter space last week. How that might not be
465 01:24:44,250 --> 01:24:56,160 Samsung this guy shot to be honest with you. I don't know one second. I mean, like the Highlander done in Bel Air. But it just sounds like somebody this shout
466 01:24:56,160 --> 01:25:19,290 out three shots. You go live and on the scene, here's ITT reporting, I will see nothing. Once again, shoot me, I'm good. I didn't see nothing. So you might go
467 01:25:19,290 --> 01:25:29,010 after these five handles. And like I'm teaching my son Cameron. And what I've mentioned also in the Twitter space is that what happens if you're trying to
468 01:25:29,010 --> 01:25:41,670 start off as at five handle trader, and you're going to find it that can be found a lot intraday. Lots of opportunities with that occurring. And you can be
469 01:25:41,700 --> 01:25:52,350 bias neutral, meaning you don't have to have the bias correct. So for the folks that are struggling with bias right now, I'm giving you a way to study and look
470 01:25:52,350 --> 01:26:04,860 for setups. And it's such a small range of movement in price, five panels is nothing like it's literally nothing. But for you. It may not have probably
471 01:26:04,860 --> 01:26:18,210 seemed like worth it at all. Because you hear other people saying five handles, you got a little big no. Five handles can change your entire life, if you know
472 01:26:18,210 --> 01:26:30,570 how to find them consistently. High frequency algorithms are taking many times huge numbers of trades, just to get less than one handle move. So who's fucking
473 01:26:30,570 --> 01:26:39,420 laughing? Okay, the clowns that have an ego problem and have a superiority complex. And they have a small audience. That's the ones that are bitching and
474 01:26:39,420 --> 01:26:51,240 making bullshit. So you shouldn't listen to those people anyway. But what happens if you're aiming for those five handles? But you don't have the
475 01:26:51,240 --> 01:27:04,080 confidence yet, because you're new. And that's understandable. But you take it off when you get three handles. And you do that for months, until you find that
476 01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:12,780 level of comfort doing it because some of it is going to be requiring you to do things longer than you think it's going to take right now. And when I just said
477 01:27:12,780 --> 01:27:23,640 that, what, several months. And some of the trolls are snickering and laughing. He said do three handles for months. Because this is hard for some people. It's
478 01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:33,900 scary. Like you. I had to overcome a lot just to get into trades. In 1992 Like it was scary after my first trade, which I impulsively this jumped in because I
479 01:27:33,900 --> 01:27:44,910 had to do something I felt I had to do it. Man, if I could be honest for a second. It was much like when maybe this doesn't make sense. I think I've talked
480 01:27:44,910 --> 01:27:56,940 about this before. My son Caleb said that he understands this perfectly. But it might be a byproduct of us having the same DNA to but you have you ever drove
481 01:27:56,970 --> 01:28:06,690 your car. And I promise we'll come back to the three handle and fight him I promise we're gonna get right back to that. But when we have episodes where when
482 01:28:06,690 --> 01:28:14,340 you're driving, okay? Just say I've experienced that. Or if you never experienced it, but you think it's fucking weird and funny. Respond on Twitter
483 01:28:14,340 --> 01:28:27,450 to that way I know everybody's awake still. But ever drive your car on a bridge and start questioning yourself? What happens if I just jerked the wheel to the
484 01:28:27,450 --> 01:28:42,540 right really hard and just go off of it? Like, do you ever feel that and begin to fear your body just doing it out of just like it's gonna do it and you had no
485 01:28:42,540 --> 01:28:53,520 sane and fearing that your arms just gonna do it like a, like a knee jerk reaction like a like a, like a reflex? It sounds crazy to some people. But I
486 01:28:53,580 --> 01:29:02,910 promise you in this audience, I guarantee you, some of you have experienced that. And you're thinking, Man, I hope I don't drive off this bridge. You don't
487 01:29:02,910 --> 01:29:12,030 do it. But sometimes you start questioning what happens if that happened? That would be embarrassing. Now you're going to fucking prison, not prison, but
488 01:29:12,030 --> 01:29:19,230 you're going to degrade. And if you turn into a crowd of people or do something like that into another car, you're gonna interest in mind, you're going to jail,
489 01:29:19,230 --> 01:29:33,360 right? Or die in the process. That moment when I got into my first trade in 1992, and I did the orange juice option. It was almost like that same feeling.
490 01:29:33,960 --> 01:29:44,370 Like it felt like it was an overwhelming I have to do something and almost like I didn't have any control over it. Like I literally was pushed, subconsciously
491 01:29:44,460 --> 01:29:58,890 to make a dumb decision. And I know looking backwards at that moment. How it was one of the most reckless and just careless decisions I've ever done with money.
492 01:30:00,210 --> 01:30:08,730 And obviously, the outcome showed me that that was careless, you know, I lost 50% of what I put up in the option, which was a lot of money to me back then.
493 01:30:09,060 --> 01:30:14,400 And I just closed the account immediately after that, okay. And to me my warning, I wasn't ready, I was scared that I was going to do something like that
494 01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:28,800 again, and lose the lesson the rest of it right. So you might have those impulses, where you're fearful of what you might do to yourself and trading,
495 01:30:30,060 --> 01:30:43,440 which is what I had. And I had to be conditioned to go in looking at the market from a different approach than just one entry technique. It feels to, in my
496 01:30:43,440 --> 01:30:51,750 opinion, because I wrestle with all this bullshit, obsessive compulsive disorder. It feels too myopic for me to know, only one way of getting into a
497 01:30:51,750 --> 01:31:07,350 marketplace. And my opinion of a highly efficient trader, they should have more than one way to get in. And I felt if I didn't have that, I was not properly
498 01:31:07,350 --> 01:31:18,270 equipped to trade. So I wanted to have a repertoire of things. Because then my mindset was, I'll have a tool for whatever the fuck they bring to me, whatever
499 01:31:18,270 --> 01:31:29,160 that Mark is going to do today, I will have a trade. Now, I can do that today. But admittedly, that was a dumb decision, which caused me to make a lot of
500 01:31:29,160 --> 01:31:39,120 tweaks and mess with stuff and blow accounts trying to make things happen. When I didn't have any proof behind what it was, I was trying to force as a trader.
501 01:31:39,120 --> 01:31:50,730 And when I first started. And for some, if you listen to me as a benchmark of five handles, you're starting from ground zero, so five handles is a huge win.
502 01:31:51,600 --> 01:32:01,020 If you just get that one time a week, and you stop and you don't lose it, that's a good thing. That's good. Especially if you're doing it with a mini one mini
503 01:32:01,020 --> 01:32:13,050 contract. You don't 1200 50 bucks a week. Well, that's not entirely true that if you're doing it multiple times, each week, you can build it up to that 25
504 01:32:13,050 --> 01:32:22,080 handles. But if you do every single day, do that, you're gonna get it that way. But if you just right now, for instance, the folks that are in Africa, you are
505 01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:34,830 challenged financially right now. And in Nigeria, there's a whole lot of shit going on. If you made two or $50 a week, just a week, that's life changing over
506 01:32:34,830 --> 01:32:43,560 there. And some of you have done the math on that thinking, Man, I'm gonna live a whole different lifestyle once this starts happening for me. But in the United
507 01:32:43,560 --> 01:32:52,560 States here, unfortunately, and this is not the new top down anybody else in another country, but you want to get the hours doesn't even pay my fucking cable
508 01:32:52,560 --> 01:33:03,270 bill per month. So here, we have a lot of expenses, and we live lives that are really bloated with things that are just overpriced. And I'm not exempt to that.
509 01:33:04,860 --> 01:33:20,970 But these five handles can make a major dent ain't even with what I spend the month or I told you 1500 1300 $1,200 or groceries. And I have not my full
510 01:33:20,970 --> 01:33:29,310 family, my my three older children, they have their own places they they're outside my house. And I still have to pay a lot of money in my opinion, in my
511 01:33:29,310 --> 01:33:39,150 opinion, it's a lot of money for groceries. So I know that all of you that aren't making a lot of money right now. And you're making whatever your job
512 01:33:39,150 --> 01:33:47,220 pays. And you have your families, you have your bills, your ends meet and you have all this stuff going on around us it's causing shit to get really
513 01:33:47,220 --> 01:34:01,920 expensive. Like really expensive. The car I just bought my son Cameron Nissan Sentra. 28,000 hours, that car should never sell for 20,000 hours, they wanted
514 01:34:02,250 --> 01:34:10,230 29 Eight, that was the lowest the we're gonna go and I said I will never buy another car from this lot again, unless I get it for 20,000. So naturally, they
515 01:34:10,230 --> 01:34:23,190 sold it for 20,000 hours. So I know it's hard for everybody else because it irks me to see what they're making people pay for it now. And going to the grocery
516 01:34:23,190 --> 01:34:29,940 store and seeing how much it costs. It's nuts. So now, bring that into the equation.
517 01:34:31,260 --> 01:34:44,220 Trolls. And folks that are trying to learn how to do this. They've never done it before. You have to have a goal to reach. That's realistic, that it's rewarding
518 01:34:44,220 --> 01:34:54,630 if you hit it, and now I give you what you aim for the five. But to give yourself confidence. As soon as you get three, close it and watch and see how
519 01:34:54,630 --> 01:35:05,610 many times it goes to the five that's what I had to do to build my My confidence to get into trades, I conditioned myself that way. Cameron's in the process of
520 01:35:05,610 --> 01:35:13,620 going through that, he's going to go through that same process of, you're looking for five. As soon as you get three, you're going to close it, and then
521 01:35:13,620 --> 01:35:22,590 watch it. Does it deliver the five? How long does it take? How much drawdown did you experience? From the point that where you took off three contracts? I'm
522 01:35:22,590 --> 01:35:31,680 sorry, the three handles in that one contract move? How much time did it take in drawdown before it went to the five? Or did it ever go there, those things, you
523 01:35:31,680 --> 01:35:39,120 keep a running log of, and you're going to be doing these multiple times intraday, which is why I'm telling you to get your 10,000 Our demo, trade or
524 01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:50,640 demo account ready, because I want you to be doing one mini Yes, with a 10,000 IRA account, because I want you to see the effects of rushing in under funded.
525 01:35:52,170 --> 01:35:59,580 But I'm going to show you how to correct the drawdown to, you're all going to create the drawdown because you're gonna be doing things through ignorance. But
526 01:35:59,580 --> 01:36:08,190 I will teach you how to fix all that stuff. And also how to fear getting in, I'm going to do the whole thing I did with myself. And what I'm putting my son's
527 01:36:08,190 --> 01:36:17,010 through, you'll be able to accomplish beating that anxiety that, you know, performance anxiety is what it is, I'm afraid I'm going to do it wrong, I'm
528 01:36:17,010 --> 01:36:29,340 afraid it won't be like your trades are. I'm going to show you how to get past all that stuff. But for someone that's new. And I give them this model to start
529 01:36:29,340 --> 01:36:41,700 with. It's a looking glass. And it allows them to focus on what look for five, be content with three. And by conditioning themselves over and over again.
530 01:36:42,180 --> 01:36:52,560 intraday, using one minute charts, it gives them several opportunities per day to challenge themselves to have that experience. It's like a laboratory
531 01:36:52,560 --> 01:37:04,080 experiment. And you're going to be prompted to do that. And it's going to be viewed by the trolls as Oh, look at this. This is dumb. No. It's to help you
532 01:37:04,560 --> 01:37:14,850 become indifferent to the outcome. Which is exactly what you need as a trader, when you put a trade on, you know that this is what your model says it should
533 01:37:14,850 --> 01:37:29,100 do. You also know that it's usually more times than not correct. So if it's more times correct, then it's not. If it fails, it's not going to cause you to wig
534 01:37:29,100 --> 01:37:37,770 out, you're not going to say oh, you know, I'm gonna have to jump on something else, this doesn't work anymore. You'll trust that this is a speed bump. That's
535 01:37:37,770 --> 01:37:52,350 all it is. It's not a roadblock. It's a barrier. It's just something that didn't give you what you were wanting that time. Just like getting turned down on a
536 01:37:52,350 --> 01:38:00,630 Saturday night into club. She's good looking. And she Yes, she is you finally had the courage to go up there. And you went long on one contract trying to get
537 01:38:00,630 --> 01:38:10,140 five, and you didn't get nothing. You got stopped out? As you said, I'm not interested. Sometimes the markets gonna do that. Ladies, you're not exempt
538 01:38:10,140 --> 01:38:24,630 either. Sometimes, it says no. I hope he asked me out and then you see his wife sit down next time. Sometimes you're gonna get full margin to. So by
539 01:38:24,630 --> 01:38:33,390 conditioning yourself, looking for something that's realistic and practical five handles at the beginning, I think is is is reasonable. It's easy, in my opinion.
540 01:38:34,200 --> 01:38:47,970 But it's also powerful. Because if you can develop the confidence to see this repeating, you're going to see a whole lot of fucking setups a lot. And you're
541 01:38:47,970 --> 01:38:59,700 not going to be fearful of missing anything. Why? How can you get to the point of ICT never fearing missing a move? Because I see them fucking coming at all
542 01:38:59,700 --> 01:39:11,910 angles all the time. It's, there's a lot of them. The point is, is you have to find the ones that you like, I literally walked through on Thursday with the GDP
543 01:39:11,910 --> 01:39:18,450 number with my son. I said, Look, here's something can happen here. This is what's going to happen here. It was doing exactly what I said I was going to do
544 01:39:18,450 --> 01:39:26,760 but I said but I want to see the trade that goes up to the fair value. That's my trade. That's the one I want to do. But even though I'm calling it live right
545 01:39:26,760 --> 01:39:39,960 there in front of everyone that was listening to us, that's what it's like to be well versed in this. You can see lots of five handle runs up and down. And
546 01:39:39,960 --> 01:39:47,610 you're never going to be fearful which means what you're not going to be impulsive about getting any losing trade right away back. Just because I can see
547 01:39:47,610 --> 01:40:01,920 lots of trades and I can see them coming and I can I can engage on all of them. My My experience has been when I've done that I lose sight of where I am, and
548 01:40:01,920 --> 01:40:11,130 when the bigger moves come? Because it's like a game after that. Like, I'm like, Okay, this one, I did that one, I did this one, I did that one. And I forgot,
549 01:40:11,610 --> 01:40:21,780 oh, I'm supposed to be looking for this. And it's my obsessive compulsive districts, the better. I mean, I don't do well in that situation. So which is
550 01:40:21,780 --> 01:40:31,080 why I did what with my trading, I have to be highly selective. I want to be in the moves that have the best potential for the big runaway runs. I know how to
551 01:40:31,080 --> 01:40:39,900 find them. But if I either missed them, because it happened before I got to the charts, or it happened when I was sleeping, that's a move, I can't, I can't
552 01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:50,820 participate in it. You can't either. I'm not getting up and saying oh, no, Bitcoin just moved 10,000 points over the last six weeks or whatever. I don't
553 01:40:50,820 --> 01:41:01,230 give a shit. That's not my market. I don't wake up and look at the s&p and say, Oh, shit, it moved 20 handles overnight, I wish I could No, I can find 20
554 01:41:01,230 --> 01:41:11,370 handles in the day doing five handle runs up, down, up down. There's my 20 handles. I'm not worried about it. In you won't be worried about which is where
555 01:41:11,370 --> 01:41:21,150 you should be as a trader, you need to know what you're looking for what you're going to accept as a trade that incurs risk and be comfortable with that. And if
556 01:41:21,150 --> 01:41:28,410 it fails, you're not going to lose your mind about it, you're not going to be in a hurry to try to find something that really isn't in the chart, what you're
557 01:41:28,410 --> 01:41:37,440 trying to do is impose your will, you're looking for that looking glass in a losing position, you're in drawdown, you're going to manifest your next setup
558 01:41:37,470 --> 01:41:48,270 even when it's not there. Why because you don't have a clue what you're doing, you don't know your model. Because if you knew your model, you would sit still
559 01:41:48,270 --> 01:42:01,710 until it formed. Maybe you watch live streamers, some of them don't live stream anymore, because he wrecked themselves. The ones that do it if they're
560 01:42:01,710 --> 01:42:15,900 impulsive, if they go in and try to overcome and do more than they're supposed to study them. If you know somebody that's like that, tell me who they are in a
561 01:42:15,900 --> 01:42:21,870 tweet to me. That way I can watch them and see, you know, I'm gonna, I want to I don't want to go there and troll and I'm asking none of you to go there and
562 01:42:21,870 --> 01:42:33,660 troll. But if it's someone that you see that is impulsive. That's a wonderful social experiment to study and observe them, not to bring hate on them, not that
563 01:42:33,660 --> 01:42:41,910 make them feel bad. That's not what this is. But if they're willing to put themselves out there like a fish in an aquarium for everybody to look at. That's
564 01:42:41,910 --> 01:42:54,300 a perfect experiment for you to see what not to do. And watch them feel the anguish and in struggle, trying to do something expecting some specific outcome
565 01:42:54,420 --> 01:43:08,730 that's never going to come. Because they're just reacting to price versus predicting price. I saw. I saw a tweet by guy. I'm not going to name him. We
566 01:43:08,730 --> 01:43:21,540 talked once. Not directly, but through online posts and such. He posted something to the effect that your job is not to predict the market but to react
567 01:43:21,540 --> 01:43:32,280 to price. Okay. That's some great a bullshit right there. And that's the reason why your results look like the way they do. And, sir, you know who I'm talking
568 01:43:32,280 --> 01:43:42,150 about? It's you. And I'm not going to try to say anything more than that. But you have to predict the price. You have to that's what every winning trader is
569 01:43:42,150 --> 01:43:51,360 trying to do. So how to fuck can you say your job is not to predict price? That's exactly what the fuck we're doing. That's like telling the football teams
570 01:43:51,420 --> 01:44:02,730 your job is not to go get touchdowns. What the fuck are we here for? I'm here to predict the future. We're here to predict the fucking future. You can think
571 01:44:02,730 --> 01:44:11,490 about what your fuck are you doing? You're trading futures for fuck sake. It's in the name. That's what you're doing. That's what the fuck we're doing. We're
572 01:44:11,490 --> 01:44:23,430 predicting the future. And when I say these people say your job as a trader is not to predict the future price movements. It's to be ready to react to price.
573 01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:30,930 How about FUCK IS THAT sound logic? That doesn't make any bit of fucking sense. It makes no sense at all.
574 01:44:32,069 --> 01:44:43,919 What the fuck? That makes no sense. And that's not the only person that said it. It's regurgitated. It's posted all the time and shit from people that know.
575 01:44:44,099 --> 01:44:57,929 Don't know what the fuck they're doing. How can you spend Seriously folks? Holy shit. How long does it How long did it take for you to see me calling these
576 01:44:57,929 --> 01:45:05,819 things before the fact to know that You know what, this ain't random anymore. And once you get to that point, okay, once you get to that point where you know
577 01:45:05,819 --> 01:45:16,259 it's not random and this shit is controlled? Does it make any bit of fucking sense to listen to somebody tell you or the world, tossing out an opinion into
578 01:45:16,259 --> 01:45:31,349 the abyss of the internet? Say, your job as a trader is not to predict price. It's to be ready to react to it. How can anybody that has spent any considerable
579 01:45:31,349 --> 01:45:43,829 time with me, proving what it is that I teach and show you what the real market is? How can anyone palate that? How can you accept that? Or even entertain it as
580 01:45:43,829 --> 01:45:58,319 a reasonable fucking consideration? For what we do? Nobody fucking can do that. Nobody Absolutely. would accept that. No, let me explain why that is perpetuated
581 01:45:58,319 --> 01:46:18,179 in this industry. This thought process is a very soothing excuse for why they suck. And there's no nice way of saying it. It's for people that don't know how
582 01:46:18,299 --> 01:46:29,969 to predict price. And it's a wonderful excuse for them to be able to lean on cozy up to and say, well, it's impossible to do anyway. So therefore, I
583 01:46:29,969 --> 01:46:40,289 shouldn't feel bad about it. You bought the hook, line and sinker that is in books, you can't predict price. No one can time the market. Well, I should
584 01:46:40,289 --> 01:46:49,109 change my motherfucking name to no one, because I'm proving it every fucking day. And guess who else is doing it? My fucking students. You're seeing them
585 01:46:49,109 --> 01:46:58,829 taking trades that I didn't talk about. But they're using the logic that I've taught. So guess what that means? All the other bullshit is horseshit. Great A.
586 01:47:04,199 --> 01:47:13,889 So, yes, our job is absolutely predicting price. But in the beginning, you don't know how to do that. So how do you protect yourself from it? You go in with baby
587 01:47:13,889 --> 01:47:26,579 steps. Gradually teaching yourself to trust your ability to do it. Also condition yourself. Building coping mechanisms for bad character flaws,
588 01:47:27,239 --> 01:47:39,839 impatience, impulsiveness, gambling. All those things that you don't think you have right now until you start pushing a button. And then you're gonna discover
589 01:47:40,139 --> 01:47:47,189 you're a fucking train wreck. You thought you had everything together? If you ever see those guys that go around on YouTube, but my wife shows me this stuff
590 01:47:47,189 --> 01:47:55,949 all the time. I don't entertain it myself. But she's she's a tick tock er girl, right? So she's fucking eats this shit up all day long. And I'm done. Like, do
591 01:47:55,949 --> 01:48:03,809 you feel your IQ drop in watching this shit? Like, I when you share some of this stuff? I literally feel like you fucking stole time from me. Like, what do you
592 01:48:03,809 --> 01:48:10,979 see an entertainment value in that it's dumb. But she shares this stuff with me. Sometimes she'll say, Look at this guy here. And they'll ask people, you know,
593 01:48:11,129 --> 01:48:23,009 how many states are in the United States? And so the answers are shocking. And it's like, what the hell? That's nuts. And there's another one. So they'll add
594 01:48:23,009 --> 01:48:30,089 he'll say, hey, look, I'm Oh shit. I lost my train of thought. Some of you probably know where I'm gonna go with this, but I lost my train of thought with
595 01:48:30,089 --> 01:48:40,799 it. Dammit, it will come back to me. Give me a second. Let me get a drink here. I think it's spring weather. By the way. I don't fucking drink alcohol. It seems
596 01:48:40,829 --> 01:48:56,069 goobers to think I'm drunk all the time. I'm just off the rails sometimes. Yes. But I'm not inebriated. I don't drink and I don't take drugs. So the man this
597 01:48:56,069 --> 01:49:04,379 guy, what does he do? He goes running ask people some shit. I don't know. I might not be able to come back. If I if I remember it. I'll tweet about it. I
598 01:49:04,379 --> 01:49:15,779 might even share a link to one of the videos. But oh yeah, that's what it is. Okay, thank you. He'll go out to a guy and say, Hey, look at this woman here.
599 01:49:17,639 --> 01:49:28,559 What would you rate her? 10 being extremely beautiful. And one being a grenade. What would you what would you say? And they'll say Oh, well, you know, I think
600 01:49:28,559 --> 01:49:39,479 she's a six. And sometimes these women are drop dead gorgeous, like beautiful. And they come up with some stupid shit. Like, oh, yeah, she's like a six, maybe
601 01:49:39,479 --> 01:49:47,399 six and a half and then he says okay, what would you rate yourself? Oh shit. I'm a nine. And they look like a buster. Like, they don't look like they even have a
602 01:49:47,399 --> 01:49:57,839 fucking job. They it's it's a mess. So they ended up taking that guy's picture and sharing it to another person and we think that this person and they're like,
603 01:49:57,869 --> 01:50:10,469 This guy's a bomb basically. You shouldn't be asking anybody out, right. And it's interesting to see what your perception is about yourself. Especially if
604 01:50:10,469 --> 01:50:20,009 you're opinionated about other people. And it's very much like a fucking Vinny where you're a little dick guy that runs around and thank you, you're a savage,
605 01:50:20,009 --> 01:50:30,209 and you can't do shit. And your opinion of yourself is gigantic, right? So you know, he packed and shipped downstairs, you don't have a giant p&l. And that's
606 01:50:30,209 --> 01:50:37,229 what's like, when you see these characters in industry, they go around with their ego, they go around saying how you should do things, but they bring
607 01:50:37,229 --> 01:50:49,529 nothing to the table showing what they can do at all, but failure, not doing well. And a spread bad advice. Bad advice. They don't have students that are
608 01:50:49,529 --> 01:50:56,579 killing it. They don't have profitable students, they don't have people proving it. Nobody's interviewing their students. Nobody's seeing anybody getting six
609 01:50:56,579 --> 01:51:06,419 figure withdrawals, and accounts and companies that are literally interviewing them. So when you listen to other people talk shit about you, our community and
610 01:51:06,419 --> 01:51:18,239 me and what it is I'm teaching. And if you entertain that, it gives you any negative feelings. You're not paying attention, because there's no reason for
611 01:51:18,239 --> 01:51:31,169 you even entertaining that bullshit. There's so much proof in here, you're drowning in it. It's intoxicating. It is a fucking cult of winning. But in the
612 01:51:31,169 --> 01:51:40,169 beginning, you can't appreciate that, because what are you doing? You're having that same complex that this gentleman highlights when he goes around asking
613 01:51:40,169 --> 01:51:49,949 other people? What do you think about this person here? What he's targeting is the ability for the human mind to look for the negative in any fucking thing.
614 01:51:51,059 --> 01:52:02,999 Toxic thinking in weak minded individuals, or ill prepared people, as traders, and everybody, when they first start are all ill prepared. But you don't know
615 01:52:03,029 --> 01:52:12,689 the level of toxicity in you until you start doing this. If you see somebody doing well, and you feel like, Oh, I gotta start talking shit about this person.
616 01:52:13,709 --> 01:52:23,519 Well, you're a little differently then. But if you look at other people, and they're doing well, and you don't feel like there's an issue, there's a problem.
617 01:52:24,269 --> 01:52:32,339 And you're like, wow, that person is really doing well. And even though you can't do what they're doing, you can't even do anything close to that. You can
618 01:52:32,339 --> 01:52:38,039 appreciate what they're doing. And think, you know, wow, that might be motivational for me to do that. Even though I can't do it. I don't feel like
619 01:52:38,039 --> 01:52:48,149 it's defeating for me to feel that way. Why? Because you're new. You're new edit. And so many, especially the young men, so many of the young men that come
620 01:52:48,149 --> 01:53:00,629 in this industry that follow other influencers that make it about image. Everything's got to be the new car. The nice cars, the I'm telling you. Having
621 01:53:00,629 --> 01:53:09,749 had lots of shit like that. It doesn't make you a better trader. And frankly, nobody gives a fuck once you show it. Once you show it, that's it. You're done
622 01:53:09,749 --> 01:53:18,899 shot your wad it's done. What are you going to do? Be Seen in and again with a different haircut? They've already seen. Okay, so what you got a car? Big deal?
623 01:53:19,709 --> 01:53:27,899 What do you been doing your trade, show me your Live account trading? Show me over a chart. While it's taking real time when I'm watching it, show me what the
624 01:53:27,899 --> 01:53:37,439 markets going to do. Tell me what it's going to do. And unfortunately, that's the stuff that never fucking happens. And that's where I live. That's my fast
625 01:53:37,439 --> 01:53:45,599 lane. I'm taking you in there doing that. But I also know as your mentor, that you're going to have problems in the beginning, you're going to discover things
626 01:53:45,599 --> 01:53:55,829 about yourself that you are not going to like and you're going to impulsively because you're not disciplined. You're not going to have the impulse of a
627 01:53:55,829 --> 01:54:06,599 professional Where is okay, I'm in a market environment. Now that is not conducive for high probability. So I'm going to impulsively remove myself.
628 01:54:07,409 --> 01:54:17,399 Because my training tells me to do so not run away in fear or not roll the dice and see what happens. Which is predominately what everybody does. That's the
629 01:54:17,399 --> 01:54:26,429 demo disease. Okay. Push the button, see what happens. Push the button, see what happens. In the beginning, you're going to be a train wreck when you discover
630 01:54:26,459 --> 01:54:36,029 what you have as character flaws. Nobody has ever started this industry ever, ever. Never happened. It's never ever happened. It's never happened, where
631 01:54:36,029 --> 01:54:45,839 somebody walked out here. Got it all right from day one, and never had hardships or had to wrestle with internal conflicts with what they are as a trader with.
632 01:54:45,839 --> 01:54:55,139 They're not as a trader. They don't they don't have a person out there in the industry that's like that. Everybody comes in here, and they're all we are all
633 01:54:55,169 --> 01:55:05,219 that ties in the fire. And that is going to be pain. It's going to be lost. It's going to be frustration. And guess what folks? Listen, friends and neighbors.
634 01:55:05,369 --> 01:55:16,949 That is absolutely part of this. And that's why I never make any sugarcoating about it. I want you to know that's coming. Because that way you're prepared to
635 01:55:16,949 --> 01:55:27,299 number one, identify it when it does. And then you have to do certain things to wrestle it, and subdue it, because it will undo you. I don't go out there and
636 01:55:27,299 --> 01:55:39,449 say, go out there and try to go for 10 handles a day. That's unrealistic. I tell you to look for one, five handle move. That's what you're looking for. In
637 01:55:39,449 --> 01:55:49,499 hindsight, by doing that, every single day, you're conditioning your eye to see it. It's the same thing that happens when you go out and buy a car. Oh, I got
638 01:55:49,499 --> 01:55:57,359 this car. It's such a pretty blue color. And nobody's ever got a car. That's this color in my neighborhood. And all of a sudden, soon as you buy you drive
639 01:55:57,359 --> 01:56:06,299 home on your way home. You don't seem 17 at the same fucking car. Just like everybody went out there that day and bought your fucking car. How did that
640 01:56:06,299 --> 01:56:17,159 happen? How the fuck did that just happen? It didn't just happen. What you just did was you opened up and activated your reticular activating system. So now,
641 01:56:17,309 --> 01:56:27,269 your subconscious that was filtering all that stuff out before. Because it didn't matter that that car was owned by other people, you went to the lot, you
642 01:56:27,269 --> 01:56:35,759 saw it, oh, I got to have that car. It means something to you. Now. It resonates with you. It's something that is part of you.
643 01:56:37,020 --> 01:56:47,250 So it should come to no surprise, when every time you walk around, you see your car, because it means something you have adopted that as something meaningful to
644 01:56:47,250 --> 01:57:00,000 you? Well, when I tell you to look at hindsight, and that test, and study old data, looking for shit. And I tell you to pause the video, look, look through
645 01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:07,680 price and tell me what you see, when you're not that I tell you tell me what you see, but annotate what you see in your log in your journal. When you do that,
646 01:57:07,680 --> 01:57:15,720 what you're doing is you're activating your reticular, reticular activating system. And when you do that, what you're doing is you're inviting your
647 01:57:15,720 --> 01:57:28,140 subconscious to draw on to something that is meaningful to you. What does that I'm teaching you fair value gaps. He is the most visually identifiable thing in
648 01:57:28,140 --> 01:57:39,210 price action, apart from relative equal highs and relative equal lows. So in, in short, really, you can just trade with just that. They're the two, they're the
649 01:57:39,210 --> 01:57:47,550 two most important, visually pleasing, easy to find. Jump on the chart real quick. Any timeframe, you're Iowa rates, the relative equal highs relative equal
650 01:57:47,550 --> 01:57:54,930 lows. And if they're superior back, yep, in in the middle of it. And you know, there's likely to go up there. Well, you can buy the fair value gap and ride it
651 01:57:54,930 --> 01:58:01,080 up to the relative equal highs. There's your model right there. It's done. I just gave it to you. And it costs you nothing. Probably some of you never even
652 01:58:01,080 --> 01:58:11,760 thought about you're like now Oh, man. I never thought about like that. Yes, it's just like that. But when you don't go through Oh, data, and you just binge
653 01:58:11,760 --> 01:58:22,500 watch my videos, and you're not pouring yourself in charts, spending time, literally every single day, looking through charts, studying how these other
654 01:58:22,500 --> 01:58:29,910 moves, that you can't make money or lose money, and everybody else is going to tell you it's a waste of fucking time. They're the same people that will not be
655 01:58:29,910 --> 01:58:42,270 trading with my funds six months later. There's a lot of bad advice in this industry. A lot of bad actors, a lot of just a lot of chat asses, man. And I'm
656 01:58:42,270 --> 01:58:52,590 sorry. I'm sorry. It's harder for some of you. I'm sorry. But it wasn't easy for me in the beginning, I just been doing a whole lot longer. I know what works.
657 01:58:53,040 --> 01:59:00,840 And I'm telling you, if you listen to the shit I'm telling you to do and avoid the things I'm telling you to avoid. You will save yourself a whole lot of time.
658 01:59:01,830 --> 01:59:14,370 And be accepting, be flexible. Give yourself permission to take up to this year and maybe in the next year to get it for some of you. If you give yourself a
659 01:59:14,370 --> 01:59:23,880 broad timeline with no definitive, I got to know it by this time. You know, in a lot of ways I regret having told you that my last livestream is going to be the
660 01:59:23,880 --> 01:59:37,020 second Friday of November, because it kind of pushed the envelope on pressure. Like now you have to by this date, I gave you a deadline. When I teach you don't
661 01:59:37,020 --> 01:59:45,180 have a deadline. I didn't tell you that so that way you can be fearful of it. I've told you that so that way, when I get to that point, I say I'm stopping I
662 01:59:45,180 --> 01:59:55,170 can say remember I told you because that's just the way it is. I got to have a have an exit clause here. Okay, when when I'm gonna leave why I'm leaving and
663 01:59:55,170 --> 02:00:03,600 why it stopped. It wasn't because somebody ran me off the fucking internet. It wasn't because you know I'm locked up, it wasn't because I'm in the poor house,
664 02:00:03,690 --> 02:00:11,700 it's because Michael is going back to fucking doing the book Michael does, okay, which is be Michael. And I've spent a lot of time if I do this every week, every
665 02:00:11,700 --> 02:00:25,200 day, I'm investing a lot of time in all of you. And it's your job to do all the work in between, which is a lot. It is. And I saw a guy saying, Listen, man, I
666 02:00:25,200 --> 02:00:36,990 love what you do. But listen, you know, you're doing these Twitter spaces, and you only give like 30 minutes of applicable information. And we got to sift
667 02:00:36,990 --> 02:00:45,900 through all that stuff. Listen, kindly, sir, please. Don't send me shit like that, because that's the kind of stuff I block. Because you're basically you're
668 02:00:45,900 --> 02:00:56,670 saying, my time investing into you telling you all these things, you can't be successful. If you just know, the concepts of getting in, where to put a stop
669 02:00:56,670 --> 02:01:05,010 loss, all that other stuff. Because if it was just that easy, I can do that in a book, and you won't make money with it. I can do that in a video because I've
670 02:01:05,010 --> 02:01:14,490 already done it. And you're not making money yet. Because that's not all that is required. You have to understand the person that's in you that's going to
671 02:01:14,490 --> 02:01:27,630 absolutely fuck this up for you. I'm sorry. But that's the reality. We're not always going to be prepared for doing difficult things. And this is one of the
672 02:01:27,630 --> 02:01:38,010 most difficult things on this fucking planet. you're wrestling with yourself in an industry that's designed to take your ass the fuck out. You're not supposed
673 02:01:38,010 --> 02:01:50,370 to make money here, man. You're not. It was not created for everybody to walk in here. And just know what's going on and make money it was designed for PT Barnum
674 02:01:50,370 --> 02:02:00,480 said it perfectly. The sucker. They're suckers born every day. And they come in here looking for animal patterns and bullshit Mickey Mouse things that tells
675 02:02:00,480 --> 02:02:08,460 them it's going to go up because moving averages across the river, and they lose their ass. And they get mad and think, Okay, I didn't do it right that time. And
676 02:02:08,460 --> 02:02:19,470 he push and push and push, and they lose their ass again, not realizing that the market doesn't respect any of that bullshit. And they have a strong opinion view
677 02:02:19,950 --> 02:02:31,320 about how they won't ever submit to somebody else's stuff when the other stuff is absolutely what's going on. They become absolutely toxic to themselves, and
678 02:02:31,320 --> 02:02:41,010 anybody else that listens or looks at them. And then these have happened all the time. I've had Denise on America Online. Okay, I've had those kinds of creepy
679 02:02:41,010 --> 02:02:53,460 bitches, okay. They're just, they're weak people weak. And you're going to have them too. If you go out there on social media, you make yourself known. You're
680 02:02:53,460 --> 02:03:02,910 going to do something, and you're going to be consistent doing this. And you're going to rub all kinds of people wrong, because they can't do it. And little bit
681 02:03:02,910 --> 02:03:11,970 complexes are going to materialize and men, rarely we ever see a woman come out there and start talking shit unless it was talking options lady. And she got
682 02:03:11,970 --> 02:03:19,230 real quiet when I said let's go in. So let's start showing some daily. Let's look at the statements. Let's do it, let's call it live. She just dropped off
683 02:03:19,230 --> 02:03:34,200 the face of Europe. Men are the ones that do it. Because it's ego, it's pride. It's the caveman mentality. And when you're young, you all the younger men, you
684 02:03:34,200 --> 02:03:43,980 all want to do that. Because you think that's what this is about. And what you're trying to turn trading into is image based, image based, worship me to
685 02:03:43,980 --> 02:03:55,320 give me attention because you need to feel what, like I have always wanted to feel. I wanted to have affirmations given to me from my grandfather. I can't get
686 02:03:55,320 --> 02:04:05,730 that. So I pursue things to try to give me that high that I'd never got from hearing it from my grandfather. I wanted that man's approval, and I can't get
687 02:04:05,730 --> 02:04:18,600 it. So I do everything in life, trying to constantly seek the affirmations that what I'm doing is above grade everything. And anybody that spends time with me
688 02:04:18,630 --> 02:04:27,780 really rolls her sleeves up. That's the common denominator responses. This is next level shit. And I know that I know that. And when I see you succeed, and
689 02:04:27,780 --> 02:04:40,380 when I see you succeed, and I see others that are among you in this community succeeding it's thrilling to me. It's, it's very satisfying. Like I love that
690 02:04:40,380 --> 02:04:51,570 you're finding yourself in this. I love it. And while you're doing it and you second guess yourself, it's like watching my children learn how to walk. And
691 02:04:51,570 --> 02:05:01,140 some of you are older than me, but it has that same effect. Like I am emotionally committed to you. I am 100% committed to you I've given you my
692 02:05:01,140 --> 02:05:05,190 entire year, every single day, I'm giving you myself
693 02:05:11,909 --> 02:05:25,889 fuck are you gonna keep driving? Bongo rolled up next to me, you make these drafts beat my finger. So I'm pouring myself into a car ruin that moment I was
694 02:05:25,889 --> 02:05:37,139 up, we had a really nice moment there. That's where I would have been editing it out. I wouldn't be recording videos, obviously in my vehicle. But I'm giving you
695 02:05:37,139 --> 02:05:45,629 something that no other mentor would. Number one, I'm doing it for free. And I love the fact that it's for free. Because no one's gonna be we'll talk shit
696 02:05:45,629 --> 02:05:56,009 about it, too, are you now I'm gonna make masters this year, like I'm gonna make ridiculous money making motherfuckers. And I can't wait. I can't wait. But I
697 02:05:56,009 --> 02:06:07,919 don't want you to fuck it up. I don't want you, you, the person that doesn't know quite well, how well you can fuck it up for yourself. So you have to listen
698 02:06:07,919 --> 02:06:19,649 to these conversations. It's meant for you to avoid the things that I and other people fucked up doing. You're gonna fail deal and things that you don't see
699 02:06:19,649 --> 02:06:30,329 coming. It's going to come out of left field. Oh, man, I didn't realize I was going to do that was so dumb. Right? Right. And I'm telling you all those
700 02:06:30,359 --> 02:06:42,689 pitfalls, their SNAP that they're snares is going to snap over you and take you by surprise. You're not going to realize it until it's too late. Without knowing
701 02:06:42,689 --> 02:06:49,799 beforehand, which is why I'm talking to you in these lectures like this. When I gave you the things to think about going into a Be aware that this is what
702 02:06:49,799 --> 02:07:03,119 typically will happen. Some people feel these things these flaws will manifest themselves. In men, it's usually all image based. Olympic size feats. Big money
703 02:07:03,119 --> 02:07:17,639 only is the thing that works best. Big p&l, no steady p&l, not wicked drawdown in max loss days. That's what you want to avoid that. But you get that if you're
704 02:07:17,639 --> 02:07:28,229 trying to always swing for grand slam home runs. And if you don't have to fucking trade well, and you don't know sniper precision. You can't reasonably
705 02:07:28,229 --> 02:07:38,399 expect to do grand slam home runs day in and day out and let the market just hand you windfall victories like that. It doesn't make sense. And to hear people
706 02:07:38,399 --> 02:07:50,219 teach that, that that's a practical or try to showcase that as this is why you should be mentored by me. That's stupidity. That's asked backwards, you need to
707 02:07:50,219 --> 02:08:00,059 go in respecting risk. identifying risk, not just mentioning in passing, but let me demonstrate what you should be doing and then failing and doing it or never
708 02:08:00,059 --> 02:08:07,799 showing it at all, like with the majority of these people out there to try to promote the idea that they're consistently profitable. They're, they're
709 02:08:07,799 --> 02:08:16,949 precision oriented. But they won't show you they knew how to do that. Which for me is very frustrating, because it sounds like there's a whole lot of me out
710 02:08:16,949 --> 02:08:26,699 there. But I can't see it. And I want to I love it. I don't care who you are, if you can do it. Well, I'd love to watch it. And I don't go on these other
711 02:08:26,699 --> 02:08:36,059 streamers and talk shit to them. I'm very supportive. And if you start live streaming, I can't wait. I would love to be in your audience sale. I'm surely
712 02:08:36,089 --> 02:08:47,939 you want to. I love this industry. I love when people have the courage to go out there and do it in front of other people. And if they can do it well. Wow. I'm
713 02:08:47,939 --> 02:08:57,569 not a sports fan. You know, I mean, like, I watched the Super Bowl, just the last one here. And I'm not sure if it's like that all the time. But the last
714 02:08:57,599 --> 02:09:06,779 Super Bowl, I heard there was like a whole lot of shit that people didn't like. And I thought it was kind of like, well, what I expected boring and wasn't all
715 02:09:06,779 --> 02:09:21,179 that there was a good game between. But I'm not a sports fan. But with trading. Like I'd watch anybody trade. To me. It's fascinating. It's like, it's not to
716 02:09:21,179 --> 02:09:29,699 me, it's to me, it's not like golf. Golf makes no fucking sense why anybody would play that. It's beyond me. But people watch that shit. And they stand
717 02:09:29,699 --> 02:09:37,559 around and follow this guy walk around hitting his ball in this fucking hole, which to me, I'm sure it takes a great deal of skill but I got better shit to
718 02:09:37,559 --> 02:09:44,249 do. I ain't gonna be doing that. I can see how people can appreciate watching football having watched the full game for the first time in my life and past
719 02:09:44,249 --> 02:09:50,879 Super Bowl just happened. It was entertaining going back and forth. I was like when I was just kind of like watching a chess game between really good players.
720 02:09:51,359 --> 02:10:01,349 Well, you just did this or I did that you did that while do this. It was good. I'm not gonna be a football fan now. Fuck no. But With trading, I could watch
721 02:10:01,349 --> 02:10:14,639 that with anybody because why? It means something to me. Just like when I tell you, as a new student, to go through old price data, look at those moves, study
722 02:10:14,639 --> 02:10:25,649 it, what do you see that pops off the chart to you with what I'm teaching you, you may not know how to see it live, you may not be able to call it live, engage
723 02:10:25,649 --> 02:10:33,119 it and trade. And that's, that's what's happening right now for a lot of you, you're watching me teach on something, we've been going for a couple of weeks,
724 02:10:33,119 --> 02:10:42,509 maybe a month or so if you consider the beginning of the year in January. And you're complaining in your tweets that, oh, I missed this setup, I was gonna
725 02:10:42,509 --> 02:10:52,199 push the button and trade. First of all, you're you're wrecking yourself right there, because you were told not to trade. You can't learn this trading. You
726 02:10:52,199 --> 02:11:01,079 have to learn this, when there's no money, not even a demo, your reading price, you're getting to the point where you're having that same experience where
727 02:11:01,499 --> 02:11:08,729 anytime you look at the chart, it's like seeing that car you just bought your eye goes right to it. You can't, it's not like you're looking around for your
728 02:11:08,729 --> 02:11:17,759 car that you just bought, your eye just jumps to it. Why? Because you've conditioned yourself to look for it, you have identified that as a pattern. It's
729 02:11:17,759 --> 02:11:25,289 a point of interest that is meaningful to you, because you keep looking at old moves. And because you've done that you've conditioned yourself like a weight
730 02:11:25,289 --> 02:11:33,929 trainer, you keep you keep working your arms with heavy weights and you're eating well, it's gonna grow a larger muscle. Well, your attention to detail.
731 02:11:33,959 --> 02:11:44,279 And the details are what I'm teaching you these elements, these PD arrays, it doesn't matter which one I love. It doesn't matter which one I'm using today,
732 02:11:44,279 --> 02:11:53,279 next week, going forward for the rest of the year. It only matters which one that you like, which one makes the most sense to you. The first one that you can
733 02:11:53,279 --> 02:12:03,299 see easily in the chart. And it might not be the fair value got it to me, it's the easiest one to see and spot. But it might not be for you, you might see a
734 02:12:03,299 --> 02:12:14,909 breaker, it just makes perfect sense to you. And guess what that means you're going to trade breakers. It doesn't mean it's inferior or superior to any other
735 02:12:14,909 --> 02:12:26,489 one. So many times traders will ask me, you know, what's your favorite setup? The one I'm getting in? I have lots of them. The one I'm gonna fucking get the
736 02:12:26,489 --> 02:12:35,429 outcome I'm looking for right now. That's the one I liked the most. Next, the next trade I'm in. That's the one I love the most. I have lots of them. And I
737 02:12:35,429 --> 02:12:44,789 try not to build the case for this is my favorite setups because as soon as I say that, the celebrity complex that comes over people when I'm just an average
738 02:12:44,789 --> 02:12:55,889 guy, dude, I'm there's nothing literally nothing celebrity about me. It's I just know this stuff. And when you asked me what my favorite is, I know why you're
739 02:12:55,889 --> 02:13:05,279 doing that. It's the same reason why I was wishing I could reach out to Larry Williams and say, which one of these trades Would you like doing the most? I
740 02:13:05,279 --> 02:13:14,519 just asked that of Linda Raschke on Twitter. I'm not sure she responded to me be honest with you. If she did, I didn't see it. But I'm gonna go check my tweets
741 02:13:14,519 --> 02:13:22,019 and see if she responded. I know some guy did. He provides it. Here's here's a video where she talked about this or that I was kind of accident, hoping he
742 02:13:22,019 --> 02:13:30,629 would respond. But if she didn't, well, whatever. But I asked her specifically I said, you know, if you had to only trade one setup, and you can only trade one
743 02:13:30,629 --> 02:13:41,699 setup the rest of the fucking time you're on this planet. What would it be and why? I'm not sure if I asked for wet market. But that was a question I wanted to
744 02:13:41,699 --> 02:13:53,939 ask Larry Williams, like, if you had to only pick one setup. That was your go to you couldn't do anything else. You know, me, if you were to ask me that right
745 02:13:53,939 --> 02:14:01,889 now I can tell you what that is. And know that what I'm about to say? For some of you ain't gonna make any bit of circumstance. You're like, oh, how does that
746 02:14:01,919 --> 02:14:10,319 and you're gonna see people tweeting? Can someone send me the video where ICT talks about? It's gonna happen? Don't think that this is the best thing for you.
747 02:14:11,009 --> 02:14:23,759 It's not. Not all it isn't. But for me, if I had to only trade one setup, and I had to wait for it. And it had to be there in a chart where I did nothing. I
748 02:14:23,759 --> 02:14:35,999 would be trading the second stage distribution in my market maker sell model or my second stage accumulation in my market maker bimodal. And that literally is
749 02:14:35,999 --> 02:14:46,259 taught in the core concepts like it's there. I'm not going to say exactly that. But it's the second stage distribution
750 02:14:47,520 --> 02:14:56,340 of either re accumulation for Long's or redistributions for shorts. So I'm looking for a market that's really designed to go lower. Everything's in my
751 02:14:56,340 --> 02:15:07,680 favor. And it's a clear market maker pattern. where it's gonna go lower is gonna go higher. And those moves are the quick sudden runs real quick, it's always
752 02:15:07,680 --> 02:15:16,290 going to be a low resistance liquidity run, which is why I'm saying that will be my new drug of choice, if I'm gonna be saying it like that, I'm gonna get my
753 02:15:16,290 --> 02:15:25,950 high off of that one. And it happens every single week. And it sets up as a one shot one kill. So it would allow me to do whatever I wanted to do with it, if I
754 02:15:25,950 --> 02:15:33,750 want to scalp it and get little pieces of it. Or if I want to run the whole thing, and get a whole month's worth of income, it can come from that one setup.
755 02:15:34,320 --> 02:15:42,570 So it can give me whatever I want from it. It could be the one set up for the week, it could be the one set up for the whole month, it could be a training
756 02:15:42,750 --> 02:15:53,250 exercise for me to hone my skills on the 15 second chart and just pyramid the fuck out of it. While it's running. That's, that's my, that's my unicorn. That's
757 02:15:53,250 --> 02:16:03,420 my setup. That's the thing that if I had to only do one thing, it's that. But clearly, you can see I have other things I can do. And what does that mean? I
758 02:16:03,420 --> 02:16:11,970 can do whatever the markets providing me an opportunity and right now, my market might be choppy. But if it's if it's choppy was that mean? You know, I got to do
759 02:16:11,970 --> 02:16:21,480 something else outside that one. Now, can I trade five handles in choppy s&p market? Yes. But what happens if that choppiness is in dollar and you're a forex
760 02:16:21,480 --> 02:16:30,480 trader, your mind should jump right to the crosses that are non dollar, because they're going to go crazy. Whenever the dollar is consolidating, look at
761 02:16:30,480 --> 02:16:41,220 Tuesday, and Tuesday, we had what really big runs with weak currencies against the strong currencies that we're not having the dollar in the in the pair name.
762 02:16:43,110 --> 02:16:57,030 And they had really wide runs and several handles or I'm sorry, several 100 pips in some of the moving a lot this week, based on that consolidation in dollar. So
763 02:16:57,030 --> 02:17:05,940 that's the reason why it's important for you to understand that there are many ways to take cells out of the marketplace. But you also have to have a macro
764 02:17:05,940 --> 02:17:15,360 understanding of what causes these markets to have the disparity between them. Because you need to have the disparity to have what movement and without
765 02:17:15,360 --> 02:17:25,500 movement, we can't profit, unless you're right in options. And we're not doing it here. So we need movement. As a intraday speculator, as a short term trader,
766 02:17:25,530 --> 02:17:35,640 we have to have movement. So I'm teaching you to number one, identify where that movement is going to be in the greatest probability, is it going up or down? And
767 02:17:35,640 --> 02:17:44,910 then waiting time of day? What time of day, should it do that? Well, that's the times I tell you to follow the marketplace. What happens on the day of the week
768 02:17:44,910 --> 02:17:52,440 that it's most likely provide that you're looking for higher and higher medium impact news events, because that's where it's going to be highly manipulated,
769 02:17:52,710 --> 02:18:01,680 we're waiting for those opportunities where the market just wonderfully invites the retail trader to step into a snare. That's why we're waiting for those high
770 02:18:01,680 --> 02:18:13,710 impact or medium impact news driver days, not FOMC, not CPI, but anything else. They're not not prepared either. But any other event, medium or high impact. We
771 02:18:13,710 --> 02:18:24,870 love those days. We love those days, because we know the retail trader is about to get sacrifice on the altar of trading. And you can have a moral dilemma with
772 02:18:24,870 --> 02:18:33,750 that. If you want, I don't have a more than that, because I paid my dues. Everybody is a card carrying loser when they come in this industry. That's just
773 02:18:33,750 --> 02:18:42,330 the way it is. And the smart ones learn how to lose professionally, the rest of their life. They manage losing. That's what consistently profitable trading is.
774 02:18:42,690 --> 02:18:54,660 Every profitable student, every profitable trader, every profitable, speculator is a professional loser. They know when to take their losses because their
775 02:18:54,660 --> 02:19:03,660 winners are going to run. They're going to let them do that. The people that don't survive in this industry are the ones that are trying to be professional
776 02:19:03,690 --> 02:19:14,010 winners. And that's the only thing they expect. And by default, they lose and they end it for themselves. They really lose, they lose her account, they lose
777 02:19:14,010 --> 02:19:23,850 the ability to trade and speculate because they lose her mind. At some point, you might have a lot of money. You might have a lot of money. So you know what
778 02:19:23,850 --> 02:19:31,410 if I blow a couple accounts, it's okay. If I blow these funded accounts, all I gotta do is reset. Okay. For some of you, there's going to be a time where
779 02:19:31,440 --> 02:19:37,980 you've done it too many times now. And you know, it's just, it's a waste. You want it so bad, but you can't do it. And you won't spend any more money on it.
780 02:19:38,010 --> 02:19:45,930 You just won't. And they sometimes are the people that are begging people buy me up on that account. I know there's people that that can't afford it. But there
781 02:19:45,930 --> 02:19:54,690 are some that just can't bring it to themselves to pay for one more because they know what they're going to do with it. And then you've got like a drug addict.
782 02:19:54,930 --> 02:20:00,000 Come on, man. Come on, man. Give me a bump. Cool, man. Give me some spare change. I'm gonna get on the bus. What you're doing is you're tracking this
783 02:20:00,000 --> 02:20:10,650 crashing get another dose of heroin. You're an addict, the wrong kind of addict. Around here, we're gonna have Fox. Well, it's not a woman I'm talking about
784 02:20:10,650 --> 02:20:17,190 either. I'm talking about a four legged animal. Wow. That's pretty
785 02:20:22,380 --> 02:20:35,280 let me enter what I was saying. But anyway, it's 20 minutes after 10 I've been going for almost two and a half hours, half bucket list and 1030 rounded. I've
786 02:20:35,280 --> 02:20:51,480 got 11 more minutes, right. So I'm hoping that in all this rambling tonight, I'm reaching some of you because the things I put you through and studying and
787 02:20:51,510 --> 02:20:58,560 observing things, I know what you want, you want me to tell you the trades that are moving and get you into it. So you can make money because you think that's
788 02:20:58,560 --> 02:21:08,310 what you need. And I want you to be able to do this when I'm not here. And the only way that's going to happen is to teach you the proper way of doing it. And
789 02:21:08,310 --> 02:21:16,620 also put you in the charts for homework. Your homework is every day back testing and looking back testing isn't necessarily my version of back testing is not
790 02:21:16,620 --> 02:21:31,920 equivalent to what everybody else talks about. Back testing is a casual view of previously traded price data that you can't participate in. Okay, mock trading
791 02:21:32,640 --> 02:21:43,650 is going back to those moves and Market Replay, maybe a simulator or something like that. That's mock trading. There's a place for that. But my point of back
792 02:21:43,650 --> 02:21:55,140 testing is, is there validity behind the setups I'm telling you to look for? And where does your I gravitate to? So you're back testing the repeating phenomenon
793 02:21:55,320 --> 02:22:04,050 of a individual pdra. So you go through the process of going through old data and say, Okay, I'm going to look for breakers, how many times does a breaker
794 02:22:04,050 --> 02:22:17,190 form on what timeframe over the course of the last 16 weeks, last 12 weeks, okay. And you look at how much time it took for that market to deliver to a
795 02:22:17,190 --> 02:22:26,310 level that I teach you to look for. So if you're going short, you're going to reach into a discount array, or low for a sell side, or old imbalance below
796 02:22:26,880 --> 02:22:38,070 whatever the equivalent would be for the Ranger and vice versa. If you're going long. And you're going through and you're writing down a list of how many you
797 02:22:38,070 --> 02:22:47,700 see how much movement there was how much drawdown there was. And when you're doing that, what are you doing? You're, you're drawing up an affinity for that
798 02:22:47,700 --> 02:22:54,420 pattern, because you're spending time looking at it. Just like when you're at the car lot. And you walked around, you saw all those dogs have a car, and you
799 02:22:54,420 --> 02:23:04,200 saw that one that just had to go home with you. That was the one well, you're you're doing that you're walking around that car lot by looking at these old
800 02:23:04,200 --> 02:23:15,480 price data. And you're gonna find that just beautiful cherry of a drive. You just want to have that one ticket home. And yes, it breaks your heart if
801 02:23:15,480 --> 02:23:23,520 somebody says it's ugly, but fuck them. You love it. It's your car. Well, that's the same thing. What your trading pattern? Everybody's going to have an opinion
802 02:23:23,520 --> 02:23:30,210 about it. Oh, it's stupid. This is so much better. I make more money than this, but they ain't ever going to show you that. Bottom line is everybody's got an
803 02:23:30,210 --> 02:23:39,090 opinion. Like to have an asshole. Who cares? Nobody gives a fuck do you ask them, don't ask them. Don't let anybody give you any input either. Which is why
804 02:23:39,090 --> 02:23:49,350 your trading journal is should not be on social media. But many of you treat Twitter, Instagram, all that shit as your trading journal, and you're inviting
805 02:23:49,830 --> 02:24:04,440 toxicity. Don't do those things. Don't do those things. Because the only thing you're doing by doing that is inviting somebody else that is asked tore up. They
806 02:24:04,440 --> 02:24:15,390 have no profitability. They have no clout, they have no following. They have no happiness, they're miserable pieces of shit. And they want nothing more than to
807 02:24:15,390 --> 02:24:26,340 make you feel miserable too. And they'll love doing it. So don't invite that. Don't allow for it. Keep the focus on the things I'm telling you to do, which
808 02:24:26,340 --> 02:24:33,840 are boring in the beginning. But I promise you if you go through the process of looking at old data, and once you find that thing that makes the most sense to
809 02:24:33,840 --> 02:24:40,470 you What thing is that it might be the fair Vega, it might be the breaker. It might be the optimal trade entry. It might be institutional order flow entry
810 02:24:40,470 --> 02:24:52,500 job, it's whatever pattern that your personality aligns with. And you can make money with that one thing and never do anything else with the shit I taught.
811 02:24:55,860 --> 02:25:12,210 think Bob Ross He did most of his painting with the big brush, the small fan and a little detail pen, not pen but detailed brush. He had lots of brushes. But
812 02:25:12,210 --> 02:25:23,970 most of the his work was done with those three particular brushes. Go to an art store, there's an arsenal of brushes, I couldn't tell you what the hell those
813 02:25:23,970 --> 02:25:34,140 things are for, I'm sure their specialty for something. But imagine that brush is your pdra, it does a specific thing, you only need one thing to do a specific
814 02:25:34,140 --> 02:25:41,910 thing, which is what profit, you have to have a multiplier reason to get in what's the catalyst that puts you into a trade. That's all you're looking for in
815 02:25:41,910 --> 02:25:51,660 the beginning. But you have to decide what that is, I can't push that on you. Which is what everybody fucking does in their other shit. Here's my Mac B,
816 02:25:51,690 --> 02:26:00,600 here's my settings from my moving average averages. This is the harmonic pattern. This is the thing that is going to overlay above the highs and below
817 02:26:00,600 --> 02:26:09,150 the lows, it's going to tell you to be a buyer or seller that's pressing you into a mold. You don't know the logic behind some of that shit that that's being
818 02:26:09,150 --> 02:26:17,010 utilized. You don't know what's making it do it. So how can you trust it? You can't build an affinity like you when you go to a car lot and you buy a car and
819 02:26:17,010 --> 02:26:23,250 you drive off, you have an affinity for that car, you're driving it, it means something to you, you can see it everywhere. Now. You think everybody's driving
820 02:26:23,250 --> 02:26:33,450 your car. You come up to the grocery store, and you think that someone moved your fucking car, it's just somebody else bought that same car, your your
821 02:26:33,450 --> 02:26:43,890 attention span is dialed on that one thing, it means something to you, you need to make this be meaningful to you. I can't do that by talking to you in a video.
822 02:26:44,640 --> 02:26:53,880 I can't do that by me trading, the setups, it might be entertaining, I may have a good choice of music when I'm sharing it, that's fine. I might not the music
823 02:26:53,880 --> 02:27:05,400 is for me, it's not for you. But that execution is not to inspire you on that one setup. It's to broaden your understanding that we're not limited to one
824 02:27:05,400 --> 02:27:14,040 setup, and their setups a lot. And I can engage them and you will be able to do it too. But in the beginning, you need to give yourself the opportunity to find
825 02:27:14,040 --> 02:27:25,740 what it what it is that your personality is best equipped for. And any educator that tries to press your ass into, this is the only way to do it. Where I'm
826 02:27:25,740 --> 02:27:34,020 telling you, the only way to perceive price being delivered is the way I'm telling you it should because anything else is it's contrived. It's all
827 02:27:34,020 --> 02:27:43,500 bullshit, it's conjecture that doesn't have any rooted truth behind it. I'm explaining to you before the market does what it's doing. So that's how you know
828 02:27:43,500 --> 02:27:51,090 you can trust me, whether you believe there's an algorithm or not. I'll leave it to you to wrestle with how as I'm doing, I've already told you what it is I'm
829 02:27:51,090 --> 02:27:58,170 doing. If you choose not to believe that's fine. You don't need to subscribe to the algorithm theory. If you look for the pattern, and you think it's going to
830 02:27:58,170 --> 02:28:05,220 unfold this way, based on what I'm teaching you directionally. You don't need to have an algorithm in your head, you don't have to subscribe to it, you don't
831 02:28:05,220 --> 02:28:11,820 have to be a part of the the religious cult that we have here. You don't need that you don't need to be a card carrying member of the cult, okay, you can
832 02:28:11,820 --> 02:28:26,520 still trade my stuff and not be a cult member. So just relax. But you have to give yourself the chance, the real chance to do this without having any outward
833 02:28:27,540 --> 02:28:35,880 forcing. Like I'm not manipulating any of you to do any one particular approach to trading. Notice I haven't done that. And when you go through the core
834 02:28:35,880 --> 02:28:43,110 content, guess what it does? It gives you the opportunity to decide where you want to be you want to be a long term trader. Do you want to be a swing trader?
835 02:28:43,500 --> 02:28:56,610 A short term trader, you're gonna trade a daily range? Are you going to be a scalper? The decisions are up to you. And you have to bring that to this. You
836 02:28:56,640 --> 02:29:05,160 do. And because there's so many of you, I'm not going to meet you. I can't sit down and answer everybody's fucking email. And I have students that paid me and
837 02:29:05,280 --> 02:29:19,230 years ago, they were mad. They were mad as shit like you should be. I can't think about I put out a tweet in minutes. There's 200 likes and comments. Like
838 02:29:19,230 --> 02:29:27,030 it's that it's the show you literally when I opened up my comments on my YouTube channel, you thought it was I was afraid of people saying shit. I'm here on
839 02:29:27,030 --> 02:29:36,030 Twitter where people would say anything they fucking want. But it's a sugar fest. And everybody wants me to answer their questions. And I can't physically
840 02:29:36,030 --> 02:29:55,830 do that. I'm, I'm one person. I only got so many minutes in a day. And I spent a lot already with you. So you have to be doing something and that is going
841 02:29:55,830 --> 02:30:05,880 through the things I tell you to do. And trust that The process will give you what you're looking for. But you'll be so much more pleased when you have
842 02:30:05,880 --> 02:30:07,530 decided on your end.
843 02:30:09,150 --> 02:30:19,260 The model the approach, how you're gonna approach the marketplace as a trader, and you brought that to this, I just gave you the tours, you decided what you're
844 02:30:19,260 --> 02:30:30,120 going to do. And it's very rewarding because you feel like it's yours. Yes, I taught you how to trade Yes, I taught you these techniques and concepts, but
845 02:30:30,120 --> 02:30:36,690 your model is the model that you're going to create and when you start making fucking money with that, and you tell Carl, the pound fucking sand you're out of
846 02:30:36,690 --> 02:30:44,370 here, enjoy working bitch, I'm out of here. Everyday is a fucking weekend to me. Now fuck off. That type of mentality is going to be easy for you to obtain Not
847 02:30:44,370 --> 02:30:54,300 that you should have that mentality and brash and rude. But for some of you, you can't wait to tell Carl the fuck himself. When you do this on your own, and
848 02:30:54,300 --> 02:31:03,600 you've made that model, from your own hard work, you put all the blood, sweat and tears, the effort. You worked through all of your uncertainties, your
849 02:31:03,600 --> 02:31:14,850 doubts, and you have done it yourself. It's so rewarding. It's so fucking rewarding, because you didn't learn it in a bucking book. ICT didn't lay it out
850 02:31:14,850 --> 02:31:21,540 for you like I did it 2022 model. There's nothing wrong with that model. But you have decided that this is what you're going to do using what was been taught to
851 02:31:21,540 --> 02:31:31,920 you. It's yours. You fucking earned it. You earned it. Nobody can take it away. Nobody can minimize it. Who gives a fuck what they fuckin think about me the
852 02:31:31,920 --> 02:31:41,730 community to concepts you think you're gonna give a fuck? Seriously? Think about this, if you're not profitable yet? Are you going to give a flying? Fuck? Would
853 02:31:41,760 --> 02:31:54,030 anybody fucking thinks about what you're doing when you don't work anymore? When you have money in the bank that you don't have right now, is it gonna fucking
854 02:31:54,030 --> 02:32:08,190 bother you? How people will talk about me? No, no, you're not gonna give a fuck. And that's the right mindset. You're here to learn how to fucking trade. You're
855 02:32:08,190 --> 02:32:16,950 not here to protect me from assholes that have little dick complexes. You're here to learn how to trade, make money, find a model and get on business with
856 02:32:16,950 --> 02:32:24,570 fucking making your life better than it is. Touch base every now and then when you get a chance, send me a fucking postcard. There it is. There's no tethering
857 02:32:24,570 --> 02:32:36,240 to me. Just this year, that's it. Once you get your wings fly baby, I want to see how high you can go. I can't wait to see you do it. But you got to do the
858 02:32:36,240 --> 02:32:46,650 things I tell you to do. You have to, there's no way to do it. Other than that, you can't fumble your way through it. And it's going to require you to work. And
859 02:32:46,650 --> 02:32:56,640 that means go through charts. See things in price action and data that you can't trade. You're not even pushing a button on demo. Nothing like that I even trade
860 02:32:56,640 --> 02:33:05,100 simulators, you have to go through the process of finding what it is that makes sense to you out of what I'm teaching as a PD re, that's your first step.
861 02:33:06,540 --> 02:33:15,180 Because I've already taught you how to find the draw and liquidity and I'm giving that to you all year long. That will happen by default, you'll learn that
862 02:33:15,180 --> 02:33:22,770 because you're being exposed to it. That's the only way you did it. That's what happens. That's why I taught paid mentorships where they had to spend the entire
863 02:33:22,830 --> 02:33:30,810 year with me, they will see they saw, it's documented, nobody can change it. Nobody can say it didn't happen. It fucking happened year after year after year.
864 02:33:31,050 --> 02:33:41,490 Now you're seeing it on a minute by minute basis. So again, if it was fraud, you fucking know it by now. But that PD array, that multiplier, that entry pattern,
865 02:33:41,490 --> 02:33:53,490 that concept of getting in, you need to decide what that is, you need to decide that nobody can make that decision for you. Because I can't make you see a
866 02:33:53,490 --> 02:34:06,720 mitigation block. I can't see how I can go into the charts and make you see a breaker if you just can't understand a run on liquidity and a shift in market
867 02:34:06,720 --> 02:34:17,490 structure. There's two minimum criteria that have to be there for that to be a breaker. And if you don't understand liquidity, or where people put trading,
868 02:34:17,490 --> 02:34:28,260 stop losses, and how they might look at the marketplace as a potential breakout. You won't understand a breaker. You won't understand it. You can see me pointing
869 02:34:28,260 --> 02:34:35,850 to it. But it means nothing to you. Why? Because you haven't studied old data enough to say oh, yeah, look what happens there. And you have to look at the
870 02:34:35,850 --> 02:34:47,220 chart and question before this move happened, who was long? And who was short? And if they were long or short? Where was their stop loss at and then reverse
871 02:34:47,220 --> 02:34:55,470 engineer all the price movements? Because that's what I did, folks. That's what I was doing in America Online. I was literally going back through old data and I
872 02:34:55,470 --> 02:35:05,400 was looking for things that I'm teaching you and when I started doing things and calling the market like I got noticed, because it was too consistent. And I'm
873 02:35:05,400 --> 02:35:14,820 certain I'm absolutely fucking certain, okay, that people are watching me do this on Twitter and you're watching me do it on a live stream, and I'm calling
874 02:35:14,820 --> 02:35:24,090 shit. So precisely on a minute by minute basis. They're questioning how the fuck am I doing this, I have to be doing this with magic, I have to be doing some
875 02:35:24,090 --> 02:35:31,770 kind of trickery. There has to be something going on. And the wonderful thing is, is you're all watching with real time data and it's happening. And I'm
876 02:35:31,770 --> 02:35:46,560 leaving no excuse. Except for foresight. It's not hindsight, it's foresight. And you won't be able to do that. Unless you've done all the back testing, which is
877 02:35:46,560 --> 02:35:54,960 simply this looking at old moves and studying them. You're not trying to trade them, you're just observing, how often does it form? How quickly doesn't move
878 02:35:54,960 --> 02:36:04,950 into profit? And how much drawdown would it be? And you're logging that, and you're putting down, okay, this market on this date, it did this, it moved this
879 02:36:04,950 --> 02:36:15,480 much to profitability. This is how much you had in drawdown is how much time it took to trade. And then you're gonna get a running total or an average of how
880 02:36:15,480 --> 02:36:24,540 many points or pips, whatever market you're looking at, on average, collectively, humans, you'll see that. And then you'll also see what's your
881 02:36:24,540 --> 02:36:38,160 maximum losing trade that you saw in that sample set? And what was your maximum profit, trade, throw both of them out, then average, what you have there. And
882 02:36:38,160 --> 02:36:43,830 that'll give you a pretty good idea as that baseline, if that was going to be your model. This is what you because you can't say that would have been my best
883 02:36:43,830 --> 02:36:51,090 trade, I would have got that. Take that out. And your worst trade what was potentially your worst trade, you probably would have not had your entire stock
884 02:36:51,090 --> 02:36:59,220 taken out. Because you could be doing partials. So you got to take both those numbers out. Don't even factor them in. Now, some of you might argue and say no,
885 02:36:59,340 --> 02:37:05,370 I can understand taking your best winning trade out. But you got to leave the worst trade. And if you're talking from a perspective that you want to wreck
886 02:37:05,370 --> 02:37:14,400 your fucking self, I'm not taking on ridiculous risk. I'm not trading to try to save face on on live streams, okay, I'm not doing that. I'm trying to take
887 02:37:14,400 --> 02:37:23,670 measured calculated risks. And if the trade is going to go bad, generally, most times, I'm going to see it's probably not going to be there. And I started doing
888 02:37:23,670 --> 02:37:30,930 that to the three minute rule. If it's got to start talking to me right now and be in my favor, or I'm going to start taking some of the trade off, or close it
889 02:37:30,930 --> 02:37:38,520 all the way. I have tools for all those things. You don't see these other traders out there that are trying to teach you, they don't have that shit.
890 02:37:39,210 --> 02:37:49,290 They're just reacting. Because they believe they have to react to their bullshit that pops up on their chart. They gotta react to the indicator, they gotta react
891 02:37:49,290 --> 02:38:01,560 to something happening outside of price itself. I'm predicting, I'm telling you what these candles are gonna do. Come on how I mean, how much more evidence
892 02:38:01,560 --> 02:38:14,820 would one need, right? I got a whole year of it. I got a whole fucking year of it. My bag is not empty yet. Got a lot more cookies in his jar. But I gave you
893 02:38:15,000 --> 02:38:21,390 six more minutes. And I told you I would give you and yes, I'm going to regret having talked the way I've talked in this one. And I can't help but be given
894 02:38:21,390 --> 02:38:33,570 enough time to run. I'm gonna run wild. And I apologize if I spoke in such a way that was not becoming of a mentor that you would have high regard for. But
895 02:38:34,170 --> 02:38:44,970 everything I said tonight, I meant everything I meant for your learning, guide you where your focus should be and they remind you what you're here for and the
896 02:38:44,970 --> 02:38:58,800 length of time that's going to be needed for certain things to develop. But you will do well, to listen to everything I'm telling you to do, and do your best to
897 02:38:58,800 --> 02:39:09,300 do it. Even if it feels uncomfortable, even if it feels like it's unproductive or counterintuitive. Remember, you're coming to me to learn. I know how to do
898 02:39:09,300 --> 02:39:20,100 this. I'm proving it in a degree that nobody else is gonna be able to match. Dave, a reminder, I'm going to be expecting you to call every single woman and
899 02:39:20,100 --> 02:39:20,520 candle
900 02:39:25,920 --> 02:39:34,020 five handles as a starting point, I think is realistic. Let me know in your opinion. I mean, even if you don't think it is, don't if anybody says they don't
901 02:39:34,020 --> 02:39:42,030 think that five handles is a good starting point, like a training wheel operation for a target for a new student. If you don't if you don't think that's
902 02:39:42,030 --> 02:39:52,170 a good thing, say so put folks in the community. Don't don't blast them. You'd be respectful, you know, and ask them why they want to divulge that in their
903 02:39:52,170 --> 02:39:59,700 response. Preferably they should they should say I don't think it's a good idea to look for five panels, initially as a first target as a developing student.
904 02:40:00,000 --> 02:40:10,650 And here's why I believe that. But if you believe that five halos is practical, something that is reasonable, it's not too high and lofty. And it makes sense to
905 02:40:10,650 --> 02:40:20,250 have something like that to be a first rung of the ladder in terms of experience to strive for, let me know that all says and as a reply to me posting this
906 02:40:20,280 --> 02:40:29,700 Twitter space on my on my feed is reply to that post. And let me know if you think five panels is, is practical, it makes sense for you to see that as a
907 02:40:30,240 --> 02:40:41,640 first rung objective, because I think it's practical. You know, I think it's something that you will see form pretty easy. And frequently over the course of
908 02:40:41,640 --> 02:40:54,600 a week, I mean, you have lots of opportunities to see that form. And if you're trading with one mini, that's 250 bucks. And a lot of young guys, and gals. And
909 02:40:54,600 --> 02:41:06,150 maybe the older folks that are, you know, on Social Security, you don't, you don't work anymore. If you just got one trade with one mini, that's five
910 02:41:06,150 --> 02:41:15,450 handles, that's 250 bucks, I'm certain that 1000 hours extra a month would do a whole lot, maybe you're on medications and prescription medicines, and maybe
911 02:41:15,450 --> 02:41:24,480 your insurance doesn't cover everything. There's a lot of things that could be out there, that would cost you a lot of money right now. And if you can pick up
912 02:41:24,510 --> 02:41:36,780 an extra two or three hours a week, and that's all you ever was able to do. That's not failure. That's not failure. And it's not Lamborghini. I know. And
913 02:41:36,780 --> 02:41:46,800 that's exactly why I've taught the same way all the time. practical, practical, everybody that turns this industry into get rich quick, they are fraudulent.
914 02:41:47,880 --> 02:41:59,460 Because 99% of the people that are telling you they can do this can't. And whenever they try to, it's interesting to see how they feel. And the people that
915 02:41:59,460 --> 02:42:12,450 are teaching practically, how to do this, I think are the ones that are more prone to be able to do it. And I'm just trying to be an old fuddy duddy old
916 02:42:12,450 --> 02:42:22,920 fuddy duddy ICT nothing about image, just the bare bones brass tacks where the rubber meets the road, how are you going to take this and make money with it.
917 02:42:24,060 --> 02:42:33,300 And if you can alleviate some major bill, or maybe a part of one bill each month, and that's your first experience in profitability. And you find it
918 02:42:33,330 --> 02:42:42,840 consistently easy to do that. And you slowly not quickly slowly build up to eventually getting half of your bills paid off for the month. And then
919 02:42:42,840 --> 02:42:52,140 eventually replacing what was required, and maybe one or two jobs to get your income covered. Now you can get it entirely from your trading. So now you've
920 02:42:52,140 --> 02:43:04,590 doubled your income. So now the next step is to triple your income and save up $200,000 of your own money not to want 1000 hours and funded account $200,000 of
921 02:43:04,590 --> 02:43:14,220 your own money. And then have a respectable amount of money for trading and yourself your own money. And you can hold on to these funded accounts if they're
922 02:43:14,220 --> 02:43:23,400 still allowing that to be a thing. But you have to have money in the bank before you consider leaving your job. Just because you made a lot of money in your
923 02:43:23,400 --> 02:43:32,700 funded account and you had a six figure withdrawal. That's not that's not an invitation to quit. Because the 100,000 hours is nothing. But that's nothing
924 02:43:32,700 --> 02:43:45,900 money. For some of you that find it as a first big windfall. Victory, is life changing for you. But it's not gonna last forever. I mean, shit, you can buy one
925 02:43:45,900 --> 02:43:56,100 car now. I mean, most cars are so over, you know, when we have two cars, I'm like, but the point is, it's a lot of money to some of you, but it won't last
926 02:43:56,100 --> 02:44:05,640 you a long time. And you don't want to quit your job and lose one stream of income and put pressure on you because you have not fully adopted the mindset of
927 02:44:06,150 --> 02:44:15,150 I have enough money. I don't have to take a trade right now, which is what would happen. If you are undercapitalized ill equipped don't have the experience.
928 02:44:15,180 --> 02:44:24,870 You've been doing it for too little time. If you stop working, and you now place all the emphasis on doing what taking a trade, whereas if you're working your
929 02:44:24,870 --> 02:44:35,550 job, you can afford to take a loss. Your mental capital is a little bit higher in equity than that of if you quit your job. You don't have money in the bank.
930 02:44:35,880 --> 02:44:45,150 Why do you need to earn 1000 hours? Well, chances are most of you don't have a 200,000 a year salary. Most of you probably don't have 100,000 on your salary.
931 02:44:45,420 --> 02:44:56,880 So it's given in my mind at least like a two year padding of not needing to have the bill money made right now. It gives you time. It gives you a cushion. And
932 02:44:56,880 --> 02:45:04,560 then you have a respectable amount of money to trade with what does that mean? My opinion 100 grand. And now you're thinking not this puts me right at the
933 02:45:05,550 --> 02:45:14,100 ballpark. No, it doesn't. You're trying to quit your job too quickly. You're gonna have to fucking work with Carl for a little while. It's the way it is,
934 02:45:14,100 --> 02:45:25,260 man. Okay, but there's coming a day. If you do everything I'm telling you to do you have the advantages of getting there, you're not being promised that. But if
935 02:45:25,260 --> 02:45:36,210 you do all the things, right, you're going in the right direction, if it takes you three years, what's the alternative? You're fucking working McCarl you're
936 02:45:36,210 --> 02:45:46,650 gonna work with fucking Carl. So just put your nose in the books. Okay, I see T book right here. Every day, we're writing a new chapter, every week, it's a new
937 02:45:46,650 --> 02:45:56,190 volume. All you have to do is keep showing up, you will get fresh bread. And you'll grow stronger over time, you'll get more experience. And when this
938 02:45:56,190 --> 02:46:08,010 happens. And you finally find yourself thinking about you think, Oh, these people I'm going to interview. They're making big money. They're getting six
939 02:46:08,010 --> 02:46:20,880 figures. I guarantee you. When they first started trading, that was only a dream. They couldn't see it happening. Now that they've done it, they know it's
940 02:46:20,880 --> 02:46:31,500 possible. They don't have that fear of I wonder if it could it is fucking happened for them. They've done it. Some of them done it more than once. So now
941 02:46:31,500 --> 02:46:40,470 they want they're desensitized to it. They don't see it, it's an impossible thing. Whereas right now, you think it's impossible. Everything's impossible
942 02:46:40,470 --> 02:46:56,250 until you do it. Everything, everything everybody told me, I would never figure this shit out. I probably figured out some stuff. And you'll figure your own
943 02:46:56,250 --> 02:47:07,680 shit out too. But quitting your job too quickly is one of the worst mistakes you're going to make. Because you're going to play so much pressure. More than
944 02:47:07,680 --> 02:47:17,340 if you're trying to live stream trading. Because you can get up there and say, No, I'm not gonna take any trades because you get stage fright. Then don't take
945 02:47:17,340 --> 02:47:28,110 any trades. But you can't not take trades when you don't have a job. And the only means of income is you making winning trades. If you don't have the
946 02:47:28,110 --> 02:47:35,220 experience of knowing what you're looking for knowing it like the back of your hand, and you know that you're gonna find us out. And you just I know, I know
947 02:47:35,250 --> 02:47:44,640 I'm finding winning setups next week. I know. Do you know that about what you're doing? If you're honest, do you really know that? If you're honest, and you say
948 02:47:44,640 --> 02:47:55,890 no, that's not weakness, you know what that is? You're being practical about yourself. You're being practical, and realistic with your present aptitude and
949 02:47:55,890 --> 02:48:07,050 skill set, and the lack thereof. You're not already trying to do something, or thinking highly of yourself, without having the ability to do those things.
950 02:48:09,540 --> 02:48:17,220 You're literally on the right track, if that's how you think. Because you're being realistic, you don't think that you're going to be able to do that,
951 02:48:17,220 --> 02:48:24,270 because it's not practical for you right now, too early in the game. It does not mean that that's how it's going to be you're never going to get it. This means
952 02:48:24,270 --> 02:48:36,660 right now. You're still in development. You're under construction. And I am turning you into a savage, you're going to be a bad motherfucker, come November.
953 02:48:37,440 --> 02:48:44,850 And maybe you don't talk like that. But you're gonna be a bad motherfucker, let's be honest, you're going to be a motherfucking Savage, you're gonna be able
954 02:48:44,850 --> 02:48:54,030 to look at these charts. And in short order, very short order in time, you'll know exactly where it's gonna go. Yes, I fucking said that. You're going to know
955 02:48:54,030 --> 02:49:05,880 exactly where it's gonna go. And you're gonna have multiple ways to approach getting in. That's empowerment. That's what the outcome of this year is going to
956 02:49:05,880 --> 02:49:11,460 be. And you're seeing proof of it every single day we get together these things repeat.
957 02:49:13,260 --> 02:49:24,150 I'm calling shots. I'm calling where the markets gonna go. All you have to do is study it. And then let the process of being there observing it. Even if it's in
958 02:49:24,150 --> 02:49:32,790 hindsight, if you can't be there when I'm doing it live, watch the recordings or add the tweets to your chart afterwards and see it. Your eye will be trained in
959 02:49:32,790 --> 02:49:44,760 observing it and because you're doing it smallholders are going the wrong direction. Stupid people driving around here. Bel Air Maryland. I don't know
960 02:49:44,850 --> 02:50:00,840 where you guys are at listening, but the driving up here is mental. Like they literally tailgate like crazy. Like they're gonna push you I thought I'd say
961 02:50:00,840 --> 02:50:09,870 that I'm sorry. I had to confess, it's one of my pet peeves around here. And it's mainly ladies like think that somewhere to be all the time, and they'll be
962 02:50:09,870 --> 02:50:17,760 mad at me women. And it's just, I'm just telling you my observation, my wife even commits behind me with that idea and says, You know what, hey, it is the
963 02:50:17,760 --> 02:50:29,010 moment up here to the tailgate too much. But see what I mean. So easiest for me. And you want me to be on a live stream with chat people talking to me, now, I
964 02:50:29,010 --> 02:50:38,160 won't be able to see candlesticks doing anything. So my reticular activating system is keyed up on everything. Short, short, attention span, on everything.
965 02:50:39,990 --> 02:50:51,870 But anyway, back test study, look for the things I'm telling you look for in lectures. And do that, while we're doing this tape reading. That's how we're
966 02:50:51,870 --> 02:51:00,720 spending the first two months, we already got through pretty much this month so far. And just a little bit more time, and then we'll be into what would be
967 02:51:00,720 --> 02:51:10,350 considered month two, and month three, you're pushing buttons. Okay, I'm gonna put you in markets. I'm gonna tell you do this right now. And start tracking how
968 02:51:10,350 --> 02:51:18,180 much time and you're all gonna have different fills, you're all going to break the rules, you're not going to put your stop loss in, because you're going to be
969 02:51:18,180 --> 02:51:25,140 fearful, you're going to get stopped to help. Like, I'm in the room looking at you. And you're you're afraid, or you're afraid to other people in this
970 02:51:25,140 --> 02:51:34,680 community want to see you do it wrong. And I want you to press into that, and be interactive with me share that experience publicly when I asked you all to do
971 02:51:34,680 --> 02:51:44,160 it. I'm not making money on the tweet replies. Okay. So it's not traffic, I'm not monetized in Twitter, I'm doing it so that way, we're seeing and hearing
972 02:51:44,580 --> 02:51:52,500 each other, just like a text messages. Like if I was your brother, if I was your dad or a relative, I wanted to send you a message like, I had your phone number,
973 02:51:52,500 --> 02:52:02,940 whatever, I'm treating that medium the same way I'm looking out for you. This is a lot of you. And every time I'm tweeting to you, it's the equivalent of me
974 02:52:02,970 --> 02:52:13,950 texting a family member saying, Hey, here's my, here's my focus right now, I want you to know about this. So it's not a signal service. But it's like a
975 02:52:13,950 --> 02:52:26,370 handshake. I'm grabbing you pulling your attention to something right then and there. And then you have to engage it. But in April, you're pushing buttons. And
976 02:52:26,370 --> 02:52:34,290 then like you were that rest of the year, we're pushing buttons. So that way it's conditioning you. And I'm going to put you through the same process. I'm
977 02:52:34,290 --> 02:52:41,850 putting Cameron through it right now. And hopefully, it won't take me more than four weeks for him to be, I'm hoping it's gonna be less than four weeks to be
978 02:52:41,850 --> 02:52:52,230 honest with you. But his performance anxiety that's hindering him right now in trying to, you know, not convinced me, but to impress me rather. He wants to be
979 02:52:52,230 --> 02:52:59,130 able to do it quickly and say, you know, look how I was able to do it quick for you, Dad, no, don't do that. And none of you should feel that way. Either. You
980 02:52:59,130 --> 02:53:08,820 take whatever time that you require, if it takes you the full year, so what that's exactly what I'm a allowance for. I think it's going to take that. And
981 02:53:08,820 --> 02:53:15,990 for some of you it may take a little bit longer. That's okay. If you do everything I tell you to do, it will happen for you. If you quit, then you
982 02:53:15,990 --> 02:53:27,390 failed. I'm not getting paid for by you trying to do it. I'm not making I'm not making ad revenue on how much back testing you do. Okay? Think about it. You got
983 02:53:27,390 --> 02:53:39,060 to really put this in perspective. What is my motivation here? Your success? Is your success, your motivation here? Are you just dabbling? If you're here, just
984 02:53:39,060 --> 02:53:48,750 for morbid curiosity, you're wasting your time. If you're here to wait to see some kind of failure, I'm gonna fucking die yet. I'm gonna love denying it all
985 02:53:48,750 --> 02:53:59,010 year long. But if you're here to learn, you want to know how to make a lot of fucking money potentially in the future where you can do this. Without me. We're
986 02:53:59,010 --> 02:54:10,380 learning in the safest environment there can be there's no trading going on while you're learning this is all removed from the risks. There's no risk in
987 02:54:10,380 --> 02:54:21,450 this learning process with me. You cannot lose money. You cannot make money. You're literally learning how to candlesticks are gonna form. You know, after
988 02:54:21,450 --> 02:54:34,890 this, what your model is, you know what you're going to wait for. And that's clarity. That's what everybody that fails, does not have that's what everybody
989 02:54:35,130 --> 02:54:46,020 that cheat that teaches everything in hindsight but can't do it in front of you it with any consistency. That's what they're lacking. They can hit and wonder
990 02:54:46,080 --> 02:54:54,630 and one hit wonder here and there. And they hope that they tried to do that in front of people on the internet, and when they fail miserably. They go right
991 02:54:54,630 --> 02:55:06,510 back into their cave. If they just listened to me and put Sit down their bullshit. Literally, this could transform everything they're doing and he
992 02:55:06,510 --> 02:55:15,600 wouldn't be toxic they wouldn't run around trying to tell her by the year low IQ assholes and shit. Okay, they could finally be profitable and consistent and not
993 02:55:15,600 --> 02:55:16,410 be so toxic
994 02:55:22,140 --> 02:55:35,190 so anyway short little drive back home I want to take you home and talk to you while I'm doing so but I go back through some forests and such and I'll probably
995 02:55:35,190 --> 02:55:54,690 lusion the signal. So this is the part where I tell you that you got an extra 25 minutes or so. No extra charge. ICT your Hello Guy? Yeah, no. So enjoy your
996 02:55:54,690 --> 02:56:09,120 Sunday. I don't know if I'll be tweeting anything tomorrow. But I will be joining you on live stream on Monday. And then we'll be going back at it again.
997 02:56:09,540 --> 02:56:14,460 So until I talk to you then be safe.
