00:01:10 --> 00:01:13 ICT: I like big button. I cannot lie. Good morning. Good morning. Good
00:01:13 --> 00:01:18 morning. How are you? Hope you're doing well, see if I can get an audio check
00:01:18 --> 00:01:23 here. See if the man can be heard, let's See. Let's see.
00:01:36 --> 00:01:39 Don't see my stream. Actually, I
00:01:55 --> 00:02:01 I can't see it or hear it from my side, so I'm going to check Twitter, and if
00:02:01 --> 00:02:10 you guys can give me a audio check, just give me five by five, if you can hear
00:02:10 --> 00:02:24 me, and if I get that from you all, that means I can begin to bloom. I believe I
00:02:24 --> 00:02:32 can be heard all right. Again. Good morning. Good morning. I don't know why
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35 the volume is low. You're gonna have to turn your volume up and listen to me
10 00:02:35 --> 00:02:38 with headphones. I'm not sure what's going on. I think YouTube's trying to
11 00:02:38 --> 00:02:43 keep you from learning they better crank it up. They're going to make money,
12 00:02:44 --> 00:02:51 alright? So, yeah, I'm not sure why. There's everybody saying it's low
13 00:02:51 --> 00:02:56 volume, but I'm, I'm literally almost kissing the microphone. Let's put it
14 00:02:56 --> 00:03:04 that way. And I'm just, I don't feel that romantic at the moment. So we are
15 00:03:04 --> 00:03:17 looking at the NASDAQ here today, and we had our opening here, and there's a 15
16 00:03:17 --> 00:03:24 second chart, and lower right, just trade through the new day opening gap of
17 00:03:24 --> 00:03:32 last Friday. The overlay I'm using, I'm testing them out this one here. If you
18 00:03:32 --> 00:03:38 create this one, you know who you are, I just want you to correct that date,
19 00:03:38 --> 00:03:43 because it should be the next day, I mentioned this on Twitter, so that's a
20 00:03:43 --> 00:03:48 little little distracting for me. So on the five minute chart, I have that in
21 00:03:48 --> 00:03:58 the left hand lower corner, so we have our discount opening range gap right
22 00:03:58 --> 00:04:04 here. Midpoint is right there, just so happens to be an old, new day opening
23 00:04:04 --> 00:04:06 gap, low in close proximity to that. So
24 00:04:17 --> 00:04:20 we'll see if we can get a little bit of a bounce in here. Get up in the opening
25 00:04:20 --> 00:04:35 range, gap changes back to electronic trading hours. So 470-454-7450, is where
26 00:04:35 --> 00:04:40 I'm focusing initially. So that way, I'm not trying to force a bias. I'm not
27 00:04:40 --> 00:04:45 trying to have Caleb know for sure what direction to work within. First thing we
28 00:04:45 --> 00:04:50 do is we watch and see if there's any formation of a gap. We have a pretty
29 00:04:50 --> 00:05:00 respectable one this morning, and this week we'll be pushing buttons. You. It's
30 00:05:00 --> 00:05:02 about time. Daniel's
31 00:05:07 --> 00:05:10 getting ready to cuss me again. I still hear water bottle you're not drinking
32 00:05:10 --> 00:05:16 Yeti, I'm not used to having it, so I forget about it, but I remember it every
33 00:05:16 --> 00:05:22 time I hear the bottle start blinking. Right? Creatures of habit have to be
34 00:05:22 --> 00:05:32 trained, alrighty. Then now let's look at the the one minute chart here. I'm
35 00:05:32 --> 00:05:38 waiting to see if we get a fair value gap there again, the first few minutes
36 00:05:38 --> 00:05:43 of trading. Let them have it, let them do whatever they want to do with it,
37 00:05:44 --> 00:05:48 whatever range they create, whatever expansion, whatever reversal, whatever
38 00:05:48 --> 00:05:53 is going to happen, is going to happen, jumping in it, trying to, you know,
39 00:05:53 --> 00:05:59 predict what you should be trying to do without looking at price. First, little
40 00:05:59 --> 00:06:00 foolish.
41 00:06:05 --> 00:06:12 Now 15 second chart, I like how the bodies have been respecting this new
42 00:06:12 --> 00:06:16 David and gap this again, this is Fridays, so the date's going to be
43 00:06:16 --> 00:06:20 incorrect here. I'm not trying to beat up on the person that coded it, but
44 00:06:20 --> 00:06:24 that's just a little cosmetic thing, But for me, it's a big deal.
45 00:06:35 --> 00:06:36 Hourly chart. I
46 00:06:45 --> 00:06:46 this wick right here.
47 00:06:52 --> 00:06:59 That one right there. Watch the 33 34.5 level, if we could go down there and
48 00:06:59 --> 00:07:07 touch that, getting through that with a lot of momentum sets us up for maybe a
49 00:07:07 --> 00:07:17 run into that Thursday and CO sign that one, yet we're just sitting still and
50 00:07:17 --> 00:07:28 waxing no reason to chase it. So today is the first day of our week where I'm
51 00:07:28 --> 00:07:34 trying to teach my son entries and how to pick the right fair value gap. I get
52 00:07:34 --> 00:07:37 that question a lot. You know, how do you know which one is the right fair
53 00:07:37 --> 00:07:41 value got? Well, it comes with trial and error in the beginning, and I'm going to
54 00:07:41 --> 00:07:49 give exercises for Caleb to and hit that. There you go. So we have our
55 00:07:49 --> 00:08:01 consequent encroachment level here, one minute chart. We have our first gap.
56 00:08:01 --> 00:08:10 Right up in here. Real small, right there, tiny little thing. It's all it
57 00:08:10 --> 00:08:10 takes, though.
58 00:08:16 --> 00:08:23 So big. Give back today. There's the a medium impact news driver came out 830 I
59 00:08:23 --> 00:08:27 could care less about the data in it. I don't worry about those those numbers.
60 00:08:27 --> 00:08:33 I'm going to trust what the price is doing more than what the data is,
61 00:08:33 --> 00:08:38 because the data is always fluffed if the market doesn't go where the data
62 00:08:38 --> 00:08:43 would indicate based on everybody else's opinion of it. For instance, if the data
63 00:08:43 --> 00:08:46 is supposed to be good for the economy or good for the market, and the market
64 00:08:46 --> 00:08:49 goes the other way, then they'll just say, well, it was priced in, but they
65 00:08:49 --> 00:08:52 didn't give you a report saying that I priced in, so they were always going to
66 00:08:52 --> 00:08:55 explain it away. So just, might as well just look at price and see what's see
67 00:08:55 --> 00:09:02 what's going to happen around the open. So far, we had a really good gap opening
68 00:09:02 --> 00:09:14 lower go back to rate retreating hours on the five minute chart. Don't want to
69 00:09:14 --> 00:09:14 do that,
70 00:09:22 --> 00:09:29 buddy. I so still very large opening gap just open straight from jump, straight
71 00:09:30 --> 00:09:37 and traded lower the sell side below here, and that wick, that red level
72 00:09:37 --> 00:09:42 right here, that's this wick on the hourly chart, upper left hand corner
73 00:09:42 --> 00:09:48 chart. If you're watching the price axis, you're going to be confused. Upper
74 00:09:48 --> 00:09:54 left hand corner chart up here, it's the wick underneath my cursor right there,
75 00:09:55 --> 00:09:59 that middle of that wick is what I highlighted and told you to watch that
76 00:09:59 --> 00:10:04 I'm. That's the same level down here in the lower left hand corner chart. This
77 00:10:04 --> 00:10:09 is a five minute chart. We went below the cell side here, and we're trading
78 00:10:09 --> 00:10:20 inside of this gap that's on the 12:50pm from last Thursday. I And
79 00:10:27 --> 00:10:37 there's the opening range gap on the 15 second chart. Mid gap is here, so that's
80 00:10:37 --> 00:10:47 consequent correction of the opening range gap. So look at the one minute
81 00:10:47 --> 00:10:54 chart, that's real, real nice right there, clean, equal highs straight down,
82 00:10:54 --> 00:10:57 right from the opening. So you know what retail wants to do. They want to be
83 00:10:57 --> 00:11:10 short. And we have a new day opening. Gap low here, just close to that mid
84 00:11:10 --> 00:11:10 gap.
85 00:11:18 --> 00:11:23 So some of the exercises I'm going to show you today. Well, I won't show you
86 00:11:23 --> 00:11:27 many of them until I probably I'll start off with one. I want to ease into it,
87 00:11:27 --> 00:11:32 but each day I'm going to teach you what you can practice with using the lower
88 00:11:32 --> 00:11:39 time frame charts. Now, for folks that don't have sub one minute charts, it's
89 00:11:39 --> 00:11:43 the same thing one on one minute chart. So I'll kind of do an example of it in
90 00:11:43 --> 00:11:47 the one minute chart today, and I'll do an example of it in the 15 second chart
91 00:11:47 --> 00:11:54 so that we guys can see it and get a baseline going forward each day. I'll do
92 00:11:54 --> 00:11:58 several examples based on what the chart and with what the market is presenting
93 00:11:58 --> 00:12:07 to me. There will be times where I will say, This is what would look like a fair
94 00:12:07 --> 00:12:11 value gap. So that way, you know in advance what I'm talking about, and
95 00:12:11 --> 00:12:16 we'll test using ones that I don't necessarily agree with. So it gives
96 00:12:16 --> 00:12:20 Caleb and all of you a chance to see what it looks like when you're not doing
97 00:12:20 --> 00:12:24 it correctly, and how you'll be able to identify it right away, because there's
98 00:12:24 --> 00:12:28 certain signatures that it should present to you if the fair value gap is
99 00:12:28 --> 00:12:34 valid, these are the things I personally look for. If they don't have all of
100 00:12:34 --> 00:12:39 them, and they have a few of them, you can still practice with it. But if you
101 00:12:39 --> 00:12:43 get in an adverse result. Don't beat yourself up about because they're
102 00:12:43 --> 00:12:48 drills. Drills are just practice. Their practice sessions is all they are. You
103 00:12:48 --> 00:12:52 won't get good at entries until you practice them a lot. You will not know
104 00:12:52 --> 00:12:57 how to buy and sell and add to the positions and pyramid unless you do
105 00:12:57 --> 00:13:03 these very basic ideas. But we got to let the market shake out its initial
106 00:13:04 --> 00:13:10 excitement here, then go here and start clicking some buttons. As you can see, I
107 00:13:10 --> 00:13:14 have it set to one contract, and today I'm going to be doing just primarily the
108 00:13:14 --> 00:13:19 discussion on the mini contract. Tomorrow I will most likely be rolled
109 00:13:19 --> 00:13:24 over into December contracts right now. We're trading with the September
110 00:13:24 --> 00:13:30 delivery tomorrow, if everything's as I expect it to be, I go to bar chart.com
111 00:13:31 --> 00:13:37 I'll post a picture of it on my community. Post of my YouTube channel,
112 00:13:38 --> 00:13:42 showing you what I'm looking at and what is the reason why I'm rolling over.
113 00:13:42 --> 00:13:47 Okay, because if you're not familiar with it, it's probably going to be, you
114 00:13:47 --> 00:13:50 know, unclear to you what I'm referring to. So I'm going to show you what it
115 00:13:50 --> 00:13:55 looks like and how I determine when I'm going to roll over. Most everybody else
116 00:13:55 --> 00:13:59 is waiting for their favorite live streamer or the person that they like to
117 00:13:59 --> 00:14:02 follow on social media. When they say the rollover, I'm looking for specific
118 00:14:02 --> 00:14:07 numbers to tell me when I'm going to stop worrying about the September
119 00:14:07 --> 00:14:11 contract, or what is considered the nearby contract, and I'm going to trade
120 00:14:11 --> 00:14:17 the next month out, which in this case is December. And the symbol for that, if
121 00:14:17 --> 00:14:25 you want to have that handy, it's going to be n, Q, Z, as in Zipper, 202, 4z. Is
122 00:14:25 --> 00:14:27 the contract delivery month code for December.
123 00:14:36 --> 00:14:39 All right, some of the things I like to look for is like we went down below this
124 00:14:39 --> 00:14:44 low here, straight shot right from the opening bell. We have all these wicks in
125 00:14:44 --> 00:14:49 here. And generally, even if it is inside of this city here, folks will
126 00:14:49 --> 00:14:53 look at that and think that that's something to go short on. I like the
127 00:14:53 --> 00:14:56 fact that it went down into that volume imbalance right here on the one minute
128 00:14:56 --> 00:14:59 chart with this candlestick here and now, I want to see, does it want to go
129 00:14:59 --> 00:15:04 high? Or to reach back up into end dog here, and then maybe get up into the buy
130 00:15:04 --> 00:15:10 side there and see if we can get to mid gap, which is consequent crushing that
131 00:15:10 --> 00:15:18 red level up here. I got a little too many lines on the chart for my liking.
132 00:15:18 --> 00:15:20 So clean on. I
133 00:15:26 --> 00:15:28 go back into a 15 minute chart upper left hand corner.
134 00:15:42 --> 00:15:56 I'm so when I'm coaching Caleb and when I'm trying to teach students, when I
135 00:15:56 --> 00:16:00 used to do one on one sessions, I do not teach one on one sessions anymore. I did
136 00:16:00 --> 00:16:06 that in the 90s. But what I would do is I would give the ideas of what I want to
137 00:16:06 --> 00:16:11 see in price that would either frame a setup. For instance, if we make another
138 00:16:11 --> 00:16:14 attempt to go lower, first of all, let's, let's do this first let's cancel
139 00:16:14 --> 00:16:19 that out. I already outlined that I want to see it fail with this sell side and
140 00:16:19 --> 00:16:21 balance by side. Efficiency. In other words, some of you, I'm going to
141 00:16:21 --> 00:16:23 maximize just this chart for right now. Okay.
142 00:16:29 --> 00:16:40 Most of you may look at this like that and think, Okay, it's gone up and it's
143 00:16:41 --> 00:16:49 rebalanced that out, so therefore it should sell off. Well, it can. I don't.
144 00:16:49 --> 00:16:54 I don't personally want to see that. I would rather see this one fail. That's
145 00:16:54 --> 00:16:57 what I'd like to see. I would like to see that one fail, meaning that, since
146 00:16:57 --> 00:17:02 we went to the top of it here and here, if you split that inefficiency in half,
147 00:17:09 --> 00:17:12 I want to see it stay in the upper half. If it has any retracements, I don't want
148 00:17:12 --> 00:17:17 to see it go back in the lower half. Okay, so right away, we're talking about
149 00:17:17 --> 00:17:21 how to look for fair value gaps that shouldn't be viewed as a shorting
150 00:17:21 --> 00:17:25 opportunity, because you would have been stopped or very close to being stopped
151 00:17:25 --> 00:17:30 out already, because the rules are, whatever the fair value gap is that has
152 00:17:30 --> 00:17:35 the imbalance candle, there's always three, okay, there's three candles that
153 00:17:35 --> 00:17:44 make A fair value gap. Your eyes being trained. Caleb, for the most part, he
154 00:17:44 --> 00:17:49 can see these, but they're not always jumping out at him, because especially
155 00:17:49 --> 00:17:53 if there's multiple fair value gaps, okay, or what would be considered
156 00:17:53 --> 00:17:58 visually representing a fair value gap, like he would look at this one and he
157 00:17:58 --> 00:18:01 would look at this one. If there's multiple ones, it's like, which one do
158 00:18:01 --> 00:18:04 you use? It's the same questions that all of you are leaving in my comment
159 00:18:04 --> 00:18:08 section, the same ones that my private students, sometimes they'll ask me,
160 00:18:08 --> 00:18:12 it's, you want a nuts to bolts? This is what you're doing. That's what we're
161 00:18:12 --> 00:18:18 covering this week. Okay, the whole week is going to be specific to that, but you
162 00:18:18 --> 00:18:21 have to let me talk about the details. Okay, because it's not just one
163 00:18:21 --> 00:18:25 sentence. There's going to be variations to certain things that way, when you
164 00:18:25 --> 00:18:29 write them down, when you take screenshots, every time I draw
165 00:18:29 --> 00:18:31 attention, like I mentioned this one here, you should already have that
166 00:18:31 --> 00:18:35 screenshot. Let me get this other way that should be screenshotted right
167 00:18:35 --> 00:18:41 there. Okay, so some of you saw this one right here, and maybe you did take the
168 00:18:41 --> 00:18:47 short in here. And if you were to use the rules that a valid fair value gap
169 00:18:47 --> 00:18:53 employees, the stop loss would be above the number two candle in the three
170 00:18:54 --> 00:19:00 candlestick formation that makes a fair value gap. So if we look at it like
171 00:19:00 --> 00:19:01 this, I
172 00:19:27 --> 00:19:28 let's make it look taller and
173 00:19:46 --> 00:19:55 one candle, two and three, if the market has moved lower, this candlestick in the
174 00:19:55 --> 00:20:02 middle, that is your, your. Your kind of your trigger candle. That's the one
175 00:20:02 --> 00:20:09 you're watching to see. Stay open. This is number one candle. This is number two
176 00:20:09 --> 00:20:14 candle. Number two candle is where your stop loss is. That's your if you're
177 00:20:14 --> 00:20:18 really trying to use the most leverage, not that that's something you should be
178 00:20:18 --> 00:20:21 encouraged to hear. I'm not trying to encourage you to over leverage, but if
179 00:20:21 --> 00:20:24 you're going to be using maximum using maximum leverage, you're placing your
180 00:20:24 --> 00:20:29 stop loss right there, the conservative stop where you're not over leveraging,
181 00:20:29 --> 00:20:32 where you're a one contract trader, and you're just not trying to push it too
182 00:20:32 --> 00:20:35 hard, and you like to be comfortable in your trade. You don't be scared out. You
183 00:20:35 --> 00:20:38 don't be worrying about too much of every fluctuation the number one candle
184 00:20:38 --> 00:20:42 is where your stop loss is okay. So right away, we've already cleared the
185 00:20:42 --> 00:20:46 air and removed all the confusion about where stop losses go and what
186 00:20:46 --> 00:20:52 candlestick is the trigger. If the market price is down below here, and
187 00:20:52 --> 00:20:55 you're looking for lower prices, even still lower than that, if the market
188 00:20:55 --> 00:21:09 trades up this candlestick number three, this is your entry that that candle
189 00:21:09 --> 00:21:15 sticks high, or one tick below it. If you're absolutely 100% certain that you
190 00:21:15 --> 00:21:20 believe strongly that it's going to drop, I will use a one tick below that
191 00:21:20 --> 00:21:27 candle sticks high. Now you can do something like this. Don't worry.
192 00:21:27 --> 00:21:31 There's plenty of here that you guys for me to trade off. Just focus here. First
193 00:21:31 --> 00:21:34 we have to lay the groundwork. You'll see me pushing buttons today. Just sits
194 00:21:34 --> 00:21:42 your ass still the low and the high that is your consequent encroachment of this
195 00:21:42 --> 00:21:50 hypothetical fair value guy. Okay, so this to this candlesticks high. That's
196 00:21:50 --> 00:22:00 your sweet spot in a perfect world, if all things being perfect, this is your
197 00:22:00 --> 00:22:07 ideal entry point right in here. Now I'm going to tell you how why we are not
198 00:22:07 --> 00:22:11 supplying demand, and you can put the middle finger up to everybody that tries
199 00:22:11 --> 00:22:14 to say that, if that's what it is, because today, you're going to find out
200 00:22:14 --> 00:22:20 what defines behind why it's not zones. We don't deal with zones. And you want
201 00:22:20 --> 00:22:24 to screenshot that. Okay, so we've seen it go down into the lower half of this
202 00:22:25 --> 00:22:32 city, which is a fair value gap that has a down close. It knocked out anyone that
203 00:22:32 --> 00:22:38 went short. Traded down once more to the consequent encroachment a mohawk, which
204 00:22:38 --> 00:22:42 is just calling outside the lines and trading up into the end all new day
205 00:22:42 --> 00:22:48 opening gap. And this is again, Friday's New Day open gap, right here. The
206 00:22:48 --> 00:22:49 liquidity is this.
207 00:22:59 --> 00:23:00 That's your buy side.
208 00:23:13 --> 00:23:20 Right there and then up here is mid gap, or consequent encouragement of the
209 00:23:20 --> 00:23:26 opening range gap, and that's all that we need to worry about at this moment.
210 00:23:26 --> 00:23:27 For you. Caleb, you
211 00:23:45 --> 00:23:50 Okay, so we have a small little gap in here. Notice it's over here. It's the
212 00:23:50 --> 00:23:56 same thing, just going lower. So we have a fair value gap there, and we have a
213 00:23:56 --> 00:24:05 fair value gap right there. This, to me, isolates all this price action. So I
214 00:24:05 --> 00:24:10 view this as a balanced price range. I would prefer it not to see that fill in.
215 00:24:11 --> 00:24:15 It doesn't mean if it goes down and fills it and touches this candle sticks
216 00:24:16 --> 00:24:20 high, or the small little volume bounce that has to be included, like you're
217 00:24:20 --> 00:24:25 drawing this fair value gap here. You can't just use the wick to wick like
218 00:24:25 --> 00:24:30 that. It's not valid. That's not valid. You want to use the volume imbalance
219 00:24:30 --> 00:24:39 that's part of and inside of, okay, that's incorrect. This I'm
220 00:24:45 --> 00:24:49 that's valid because you're you're taking consideration that the difference
221 00:24:49 --> 00:24:54 between two bodies that they are not touching. So you have to have all the
222 00:24:54 --> 00:24:57 way down to the previous candle, or number one candle, in this case, which
223 00:24:57 --> 00:25:03 is the opposite of this. You. Okay, so we want to see a trade above the end dog
224 00:25:03 --> 00:25:07 come back down. It can use the top or the midpoint of that spring from that up
225 00:25:07 --> 00:25:12 into the minor buy side, maybe, hopefully accelerate and reach into that
226 00:25:12 --> 00:25:12 mid gap.
227 00:25:19 --> 00:25:24 And we still got about seven minutes or so see if we can hit that mid gap.
228 00:25:24 --> 00:25:29 Because again, 70% of the time it's not 100% 70% of the time mid gap gets hit
229 00:25:29 --> 00:25:34 within the first 30 minutes. So back to this discussion here for fair value
230 00:25:34 --> 00:25:39 gaps, we're not supplying demand. We don't trade in zones. So since number
231 00:25:39 --> 00:25:45 three candle, that is your entry candle number two candle is your framing of the
232 00:25:45 --> 00:25:51 fair Vega. What's the what's the part? That's the area where price should come
233 00:25:51 --> 00:25:56 back and revisit it. It's the candle that has no previous candles, low
234 00:25:56 --> 00:26:02 touching the next candle after no words. In a perfect world, this candlestick
235 00:26:02 --> 00:26:07 should touch this candlestick and have a bridge between those two price points.
236 00:26:08 --> 00:26:13 But as we see here, it's being shown with just one candlestick. So it's one
237 00:26:13 --> 00:26:18 pass through or single delivery between this candlesticks low to where this
238 00:26:18 --> 00:26:24 candle makes its high. So as soon as the next candle number four opens, you have
239 00:26:24 --> 00:26:28 a valid reason to anticipate a return back up into that fear you got. It may
240 00:26:28 --> 00:26:31 not do so. It may just keep on dropping down. If it does, just let it do it.
241 00:26:32 --> 00:26:37 Don't, don't worry about it, because your eyesight, your eyesight, your your
242 00:26:37 --> 00:26:43 focus, rather, should be in the mid part of the gap that is framed by this
243 00:26:43 --> 00:26:47 candlesticks low, and this candle sticks high, and you drop a fib on it. Same
244 00:26:48 --> 00:26:51 thing is accomplished when you put the little horizontal line on your
245 00:26:51 --> 00:26:56 rectangles, when you drop your rectangles in, and you go to style this
246 00:26:56 --> 00:26:59 midline is basically going to give you the same thing that you get when you put
247 00:26:59 --> 00:27:04 a Fibonacci on it and had the 50% level. It's consequent encroachment. It's the
248 00:27:04 --> 00:27:11 midpoint. If we're bearish, the ideal, optimal entries are going to be formed
249 00:27:11 --> 00:27:16 at the lower half. Why? Because you want to see that upper half, this level up to
250 00:27:16 --> 00:27:21 this candle, sticks low, stay open. You want that to remain open, because if it
251 00:27:21 --> 00:27:26 does, that means you have a very strong probability that you're right and you're
252 00:27:26 --> 00:27:31 going to be on side, and that's that's a fun thing to to be on, and there's
253 00:27:32 --> 00:27:36 signatures that the algorithm signals to you that that's what it's trying to do.
254 00:27:36 --> 00:27:40 And you don't have to worry about you don't you're not fearful of it. You're
255 00:27:40 --> 00:27:46 going to smoke that minor buy side? You're already grinning, aren't you the
256 00:27:46 --> 00:27:53 good man? This guy's literally teaching what the future holds. Not for
257 00:27:53 --> 00:27:57 everybody. A lot of you guys are going to tap out. You're not going to want to
258 00:27:57 --> 00:28:01 do the work. But why? We are not treating in zones. Okay, well, this
259 00:28:01 --> 00:28:07 looks like a zone. ICT, you're shading this area here. There are specific price
260 00:28:07 --> 00:28:14 levels this low that candle number one to candle number three is high. That's
261 00:28:14 --> 00:28:17 what I have a Fibonacci on hypothetically, because these are just
262 00:28:17 --> 00:28:22 candles I drew out. They're not there. The same thing we're going to look at on
263 00:28:22 --> 00:28:25 the actual fair value gaps in price. But this is the stuff that you write down
264 00:28:25 --> 00:28:28 and you draw this out in your notebook. Okay, you're welcome. You might get out
265 00:28:28 --> 00:28:32 of the way. You're welcome to take that screenshot like that and then scribble
266 00:28:32 --> 00:28:36 all of your notes around that. But what you're looking for is, I, personally,
267 00:28:36 --> 00:28:41 this is my favorite way of doing it, because if you look at my charts when
268 00:28:41 --> 00:28:46 I'm doing executions, you might see where I'm just a little bit ahead of a
269 00:28:46 --> 00:28:50 fair value gap, or I'm just a little bit ahead of a bearish order block, because
270 00:28:50 --> 00:28:54 I know what I'm looking for. So I want to make sure I get filled because I'm
271 00:28:54 --> 00:28:58 trying to trade in markets that are very heavy when I'm bearish or very, very
272 00:28:58 --> 00:29:03 light and more likely to run higher when I'm bullish, so I want to make sure I
273 00:29:03 --> 00:29:07 get filled. I don't like missing my entries. I don't I'm not worried about
274 00:29:07 --> 00:29:11 missing the trade. That is, I have 81 ways to get into that same trade. But
275 00:29:11 --> 00:29:16 the thing is that you are not learning how to trade a zone. There's very
276 00:29:16 --> 00:29:20 specific price levels, and what are they? Are this? It's the high of candle
277 00:29:20 --> 00:29:24 number three, when you're trading a bearish fair value gap, look at that buy
278 00:29:24 --> 00:29:30 side. Look at that. Who doesn't like this? Patrick. Patrick, you watching
279 00:29:30 --> 00:29:36 take notes. Brother. So that price right there, if it trades up into that, you
280 00:29:36 --> 00:29:41 can be short. I would be short. One tick below this candle sticks high, and then
281 00:29:41 --> 00:29:46 if it trades up to the lower quadrant of this gap, I'm adding one more. What do
282 00:29:46 --> 00:29:49 you think I'm adding there? That's the four contracts. So I'm going to enter
283 00:29:49 --> 00:29:53 short I'm not saying this is, let me slow down real quick, but I'm just
284 00:29:53 --> 00:29:59 teaching you by theory, what you watch me do all the time in my examples. Okay,
285 00:29:59 --> 00:30:04 I'm. I'm doing this and I'm repeating it over and over and over and over again,
286 00:30:05 --> 00:30:10 and it's something that you're going to be able to do if you practice this.
287 00:30:11 --> 00:30:19 Okay. Entry six contracts at candle number three is high, less one tick, if
288 00:30:19 --> 00:30:24 I'm not there at the time to get that on soon as it trades to this candle sticks
289 00:30:24 --> 00:30:31 high as it's happening, I'm going short rate the market, and then I'm watching
290 00:30:31 --> 00:30:36 price. I want to see price kiss that lower quadrant level that makes that
291 00:30:36 --> 00:30:43 fair value gaps range. Okay, I'm going to add four more there, and then
292 00:30:43 --> 00:30:48 whatever I feel comfortable with if I get another opportunity to short that'll
293 00:30:48 --> 00:30:54 happen if it touches consequent encouragement, if, if, and it doesn't
294 00:30:54 --> 00:30:58 always happen if it trades up in The upper half. In other words, it does
295 00:30:58 --> 00:30:59 this, I'm
296 00:31:04 --> 00:31:09 now we're up in upper region. Now I have a real deep, deep, deep discount. I'm
297 00:31:09 --> 00:31:15 sorry, premium, I'm trying to sell at extremely high price. Then what I'm
298 00:31:15 --> 00:31:21 going to do is I'm going to toss in like, two contracts, two more contracts,
299 00:31:21 --> 00:31:26 as long as it's spending time up in here and it keeps tapping, and if it shows
300 00:31:26 --> 00:31:31 the body staying inside of this candle sticks low. Number one candles low, I
301 00:31:31 --> 00:31:36 will allow it to wick through that. It's okay for it to do that, because my stop
302 00:31:36 --> 00:31:39 loss is going to be resting one tick above this candle sticks high. It's
303 00:31:40 --> 00:31:44 going to take a real move to disrupt that, and I already know, as I proved
304 00:31:44 --> 00:31:48 here, I knew how to find fair value gaps that fail, and I will tell you why that
305 00:31:48 --> 00:31:52 one was not a good one. So settle down. You're screaming at the monitor, dude,
306 00:31:52 --> 00:31:57 tell me why you didn't bleep. I'm going to tell you, trust me, it's all part of
307 00:31:57 --> 00:32:02 the purchase price of coming here today, no refunds. So we have this level here
308 00:32:02 --> 00:32:06 that we allow for the wicks to form through it, but we don't want to ever
309 00:32:06 --> 00:32:11 want to see the bodies close above it. We don't want to see that. So that's how
310 00:32:11 --> 00:32:16 I'm internalizing what I'm expecting when price is trading up into the fair
311 00:32:16 --> 00:32:21 value gap. My entry price point is specific. It's not how do I get in this
312 00:32:21 --> 00:32:26 zone? How do I trade this zone? That's bullshit. We have to know what levels
313 00:32:26 --> 00:32:30 we're trading. Okay, so if it's going to trade in an above the midpoint, it's
314 00:32:30 --> 00:32:34 giving me a real high premium price. What price level am I going to aim for
315 00:32:34 --> 00:32:40 there, the upper quadrant level. Now tell me how's that for logic. It's not
316 00:32:40 --> 00:32:44 ambiguous. It's not Milli Vanilli. Okay, you don't know what you're getting. I
317 00:32:44 --> 00:32:49 know exactly what I'm looking for. I know exactly what price I'm aiming for,
318 00:32:49 --> 00:32:54 and I know exactly where my stop loss is going to be at. I'm not guessing. I'm
319 00:32:54 --> 00:32:58 not wondering where I should put it at. I'm not worrying about if it's going to
320 00:32:58 --> 00:33:02 get hit, because if it hits it, then that's wonderful that I just paid a
321 00:33:02 --> 00:33:08 premium for information I got new Intel. That means I'm probably looking at an
322 00:33:08 --> 00:33:14 inversion fair value gap, and I can mitigate that loss very easily. Oh my
323 00:33:14 --> 00:33:17 goodness, yes. And you're worried about losing. Why are you worried about
324 00:33:17 --> 00:33:22 losing? Losing? Just is you paying a premium for more information. You're
325 00:33:22 --> 00:33:26 getting close. You're getting a better view of price its next move. You're
326 00:33:26 --> 00:33:30 getting VIP seating. But you have to pay extra for that, don't you? That's all
327 00:33:30 --> 00:33:33 this is when you take a loss, that's what you're getting. You're getting VIP
328 00:33:33 --> 00:33:40 treatment for the next price run. Now if you get stopped out with retail logic,
329 00:33:40 --> 00:33:45 you're scared. You have no idea what's going on. It's terrifying. You freeze
330 00:33:45 --> 00:33:50 up, or you go into panic mode, or you go Gambler's numb, and you start pushing a
331 00:33:50 --> 00:33:53 button, hoping something happens. And at some point, you don't even care if you
332 00:33:53 --> 00:33:58 are making money when you get like that. So to avoid all those things, you have
333 00:33:58 --> 00:34:01 to have a logic in mind, how you're going to look for the pattern, if the
334 00:34:01 --> 00:34:05 pattern is the fair value gap for you, which is, I'm pushing that on my son
335 00:34:06 --> 00:34:11 like I'm almost basically making him only trade with this one. Because
336 00:34:11 --> 00:34:14 everything I'm teaching today, this week, and then this entire 2024
337 00:34:15 --> 00:34:21 mentorship is a foundation for him. He will have the ability to migrate away
338 00:34:21 --> 00:34:25 from the fair value gap if he doesn't want to use it, if he finds something
339 00:34:25 --> 00:34:31 else better. But visually, as a teaching aid, the fair value gap is good. Okay,
340 00:34:32 --> 00:34:39 the first presentation fair value gap right there. That's, let's highlight
341 00:34:39 --> 00:34:44 that every single time I annotate the chart, I gotta start looking at the time
342 00:34:44 --> 00:34:49 down here. And if it's about to go to in the 52nd before the change of the
343 00:34:49 --> 00:34:54 minute, I gotta wait for that to happen. Every single time I annotate the chart
344 00:34:54 --> 00:35:00 jumps. And sometimes, if I'm talking too fast, the I won't make i. Won't notice
345 00:35:00 --> 00:35:03 it, and then in my chart won't be like it's supposed to be. And it makes me
346 00:35:03 --> 00:35:14 angry later when I see what chart looks like. I want to get that mid, mid line
347 00:35:14 --> 00:35:20 off. It's not but I'm over here. Okay, so here's first presentation, fair Vega,
348 00:35:21 --> 00:35:27 so now we know the prices. We know how we're going to build in pyramided
349 00:35:27 --> 00:35:32 positions. If I'm not saying you should do this, if you're first time trying to
350 00:35:32 --> 00:35:36 learn how to do this, do not try to pyramid. Please. Don't try to build big,
351 00:35:36 --> 00:35:41 big, big positions. Just try to trade one contract and use the easiest, low
352 00:35:41 --> 00:35:45 hanging fruit objective entry. That's this one down here on candle number
353 00:35:45 --> 00:35:52 three. It's high minus one tick. Okay, you're going to practice with that.
354 00:35:52 --> 00:35:57 You're going to do it with market orders first, so that way you're going to time
355 00:35:57 --> 00:36:02 it. What this does? It helps you with your anticipatory price reading skills.
356 00:36:03 --> 00:36:08 It's better and it's more efficient and professional to use limit orders. I'm
357 00:36:08 --> 00:36:11 not trying to discourage you. In fact, that's where you should be going with
358 00:36:11 --> 00:36:17 this, but it helps you understand how to time the market and how to read it with
359 00:36:17 --> 00:36:23 your marketing in when you start trading with your real money, should you ever
360 00:36:23 --> 00:36:27 decide to do that? The only time you should be really doing market orders is
361 00:36:27 --> 00:36:32 just to get out of something that you need to protect your money with. Okay, I
362 00:36:32 --> 00:36:38 I'm a strong believer that your exits should be on limits and your entries
363 00:36:38 --> 00:36:44 should be on limits or on on rare occasions buying on a stop or selling on
364 00:36:44 --> 00:36:49 a stop, and as an entry mechanism into it, you see what that was there. It was
365 00:36:49 --> 00:36:52 a stop hunt below that short term low, the wick went all the way down. Look
366 00:36:52 --> 00:36:58 where the body stopped above first percent of fair value gap mid gap still
367 00:36:58 --> 00:37:08 is on table. So low hanging fruit entry pricing for a one contract, micro,
368 00:37:09 --> 00:37:16 NASDAQ, micro, E, Mini, s, p, you're not trading the Mini, so the micro, it's $5
369 00:37:16 --> 00:37:23 per handle or point. For the ES, if you're trading that one or $2 per handle
370 00:37:23 --> 00:37:29 or point for the NASDAQ, a mini is $20 per handle. So there's the difference.
371 00:37:29 --> 00:37:38 Okay, when you're learning Caleb, you're going to be executing on the micro. It's
372 00:37:38 --> 00:37:42 not about the money, it's about the the process of simply following the rules
373 00:37:42 --> 00:37:47 and desensitizing yourself. It does not take long for everyone else that's
374 00:37:47 --> 00:37:51 listening. You're all thinking, I want to go into the mini I need to trade five
375 00:37:51 --> 00:37:56 contracts on my funded account. Don't, don't do that because you're not
376 00:37:56 --> 00:38:01 equipping yourself to trust what it is that you'll eventually live by it'll be
377 00:38:01 --> 00:38:06 it's a very boring process. But if you make it exciting or terrifying, because
378 00:38:06 --> 00:38:09 it's going to be either or when you when you're trading with the monetized
379 00:38:09 --> 00:38:14 result, you're not going to learn correctly. You're not going to learn.
380 00:38:15 --> 00:38:19 You're going to learn to be fearful of the outcome, because you're dealing it
381 00:38:19 --> 00:38:23 with a monetized reward or punishment at the end of it, versus you're only going
382 00:38:23 --> 00:38:30 to be tape reading, and you're only going to be doing what, one single micro
383 00:38:30 --> 00:38:34 contract in a demo, that's it, and you're going to do that for a little
384 00:38:34 --> 00:38:39 while until you get bored with it. There is no time limit, but it should be at
385 00:38:39 --> 00:38:43 least a month, and right away, I've already lost most of you, because you
386 00:38:43 --> 00:38:47 don't want to put that much time into this just that. But that's this is how
387 00:38:47 --> 00:38:54 you do it. Okay? You You have plenty of data to support it, you have plenty of
388 00:38:54 --> 00:38:59 opportunity to practice with it, and you need to desensitize yourself to the
389 00:38:59 --> 00:39:04 outcome by simply doing it every single opportunity you can in the charts live.
390 00:39:05 --> 00:39:09 And by doing that, it strips away all the fear and it takes away the rush I
391 00:39:09 --> 00:39:12 gotta do. I gotta do it right now make money, because once you know what you're
392 00:39:12 --> 00:39:16 doing and what you're looking for, you're gonna find that they're always
393 00:39:16 --> 00:39:20 there every single day, and you're there's no reason for you to feel like I
394 00:39:20 --> 00:39:24 gotta be trading today. I gotta get online right now. I can't miss trading
395 00:39:24 --> 00:39:28 today, or if something happens and it prevented you from getting in front of
396 00:39:28 --> 00:39:34 the charts. Caleb, you don't have this impulse that you know, of feeling regret
397 00:39:34 --> 00:39:40 or just not being able to keep up with everybody else, which is something
398 00:39:40 --> 00:39:43 that's synonymous in my group, where new students come in, they like to gotta
399 00:39:43 --> 00:39:47 catch up, right? I gotta keep up with everybody else. No, you don't. So I'm
400 00:39:47 --> 00:39:50 gonna show you the reverse real quick, and then we'll get into what you're here
401 00:39:50 --> 00:40:02 for. All right, let's do it like this. I do it like this. Do it like that. I
402 00:40:09 --> 00:40:13 don't know why I got Dougie fresh in my head. Now, that's old school. We know
403 00:40:13 --> 00:40:20 about that. ICT. We know about that, bro, I said this would be accomplished
404 00:40:20 --> 00:40:27 by taking candlestick number ones high, the candlestick number three is low, and
405 00:40:27 --> 00:40:35 then this would be on candle Number three's low as the buy and change that
406 00:40:35 --> 00:40:44 to blue, alrighty. So same idea, just just in reverse, when you're expecting
407 00:40:44 --> 00:40:49 the market to go up some higher price, okay, and you're watching price deliver,
408 00:40:49 --> 00:40:54 and you see three candles. One candles moved in, delivered price. The second
409 00:40:54 --> 00:41:01 one delivers price higher. That's key. Okay? Then third candlestick trades
410 00:41:01 --> 00:41:05 higher than number two's candle, but Number three's candles low does not
411 00:41:05 --> 00:41:12 touch or overlap with candlestick number one's high. That candlestick number two
412 00:41:12 --> 00:41:16 in the middle, that is your trigger candle. That is your fair value guy. If
413 00:41:16 --> 00:41:20 you're long or looking to go long, in that instance, you're going to use this
414 00:41:20 --> 00:41:29 candlestick. Number threes low plus one tick. That's my entry. That's how ICT
415 00:41:29 --> 00:41:34 enters it, if I am watching it, and it trades down and it gets into the upper
416 00:41:34 --> 00:41:39 quadrant level here, then I will add more. Again. This is just for
417 00:41:39 --> 00:41:42 completeness sake. I'm not trying to encourage any of you to build positions
418 00:41:42 --> 00:41:46 and pyramid. I'm not telling you to do that. Okay? I'm not telling I'm not
419 00:41:46 --> 00:41:52 doing that. So by having the the market trade down to the upper quadrant and as
420 00:41:52 --> 00:41:57 low as the midpoint or consequent encroachment of this gap that separates
421 00:41:57 --> 00:42:01 candlestick number one to candlestick number two, this whole pattern here is
422 00:42:01 --> 00:42:06 this right here. This is candlestick number one, candlestick number two in
423 00:42:06 --> 00:42:10 the middle that's shaded with the blue box around it. And this is candlestick
424 00:42:10 --> 00:42:15 number three. This one. Okay, so in in a full diagram, that candlestick right
425 00:42:15 --> 00:42:26 there is this one. So if we look at it like this. I'm going to elongate this
426 00:42:26 --> 00:42:31 make a little bit taller so we can see it. I already, in some people's eyes,
427 00:42:31 --> 00:42:38 talk too much, but I promise you, I've already taught you exactly what most of
428 00:42:38 --> 00:42:42 you been wanting to know about, how to trade fair value gaps and where to place
429 00:42:42 --> 00:42:46 his thought loss and how it should form. And that's what I'm here for, not the
430 00:42:46 --> 00:42:50 jokers that want to find something to talk about. So because we're using the
431 00:42:50 --> 00:42:55 volume and bounce here, that's how you would draw down to here, where I'm using
432 00:42:55 --> 00:42:59 the high here, if there is a volume imbalance, which is a separation between
433 00:42:59 --> 00:43:05 the previous candle body and the next candle that makes the fair value gap,
434 00:43:05 --> 00:43:09 that little separation always include that you'll have better you'll have
435 00:43:09 --> 00:43:15 better determination of the consequent encroachment level, which is important,
436 00:43:15 --> 00:43:19 like that's that's your most important level, because what you're watching for
437 00:43:19 --> 00:43:24 is You want to see the opposite of what I said earlier, when we were looking at
438 00:43:24 --> 00:43:27 the cell or shorting opportunity for a fair value gap. We want to see the
439 00:43:27 --> 00:43:31 constant encroachment in the lower portion traded to and that's your best
440 00:43:31 --> 00:43:35 entry, because you want to see the upper half of it left open. And if it does, it
441 00:43:35 --> 00:43:38 means it's really, really bearish. What do you think is going to happen on the
442 00:43:38 --> 00:43:42 times when you're bullish? The ideal entries are going to form in the
443 00:43:42 --> 00:43:50 midpoint of the gap to number three candles low. And you want to see that
444 00:43:50 --> 00:43:55 lower half stay open, not traded to it can whip down in there. If it does trade
445 00:43:55 --> 00:43:59 to the midpoint, I'm going to add more. If it trades down to the lower quadrant,
446 00:43:59 --> 00:44:02 I'm going to add more. If I can see it, touch this down here. I'm going to add
447 00:44:02 --> 00:44:07 more. I'm going to keep adding to that, because my stop loss is going to be
448 00:44:07 --> 00:44:15 below candlestick number twos low. Now apply that same logic over here. We did
449 00:44:15 --> 00:44:19 all this live. Mind you, this number two candlestick, that's the favorite value
450 00:44:19 --> 00:44:23 got. The market drops down to this candlesticks, price plus one tick, you
451 00:44:23 --> 00:44:27 would have been filled right there. The heat on that trade is your fill would
452 00:44:27 --> 00:44:31 have been approximately 404 and three, what is called 405 so you got slipped.
453 00:44:31 --> 00:44:35 Okay? Something happened. You got in there. You didn't do it exactly right,
454 00:44:35 --> 00:44:42 but you're in at 19,000 405 even the low of that candlestick. See, I just see
455 00:44:42 --> 00:44:46 what happens every single time I go to a candlestick, it jumps all right. Sid,
456 00:44:46 --> 00:44:53 the low of this candlestick, right there, comes in at four. Oh, 1.75 so
457 00:44:53 --> 00:45:03 that's 3.75 handles, drawdown. So three. 80 times 20 is 60. Just call it less
458 00:45:03 --> 00:45:09 than, like 70 bucks. 70 bucks. Heat, if you're trading with one mini, that's how
459 00:45:09 --> 00:45:15 much drawdown you absorbed before it turned around. So I got in your favor,
460 00:45:15 --> 00:45:19 and it went just short of what price level? That's that upper quadrant level,
461 00:45:19 --> 00:45:28 that price is four. Oh, 1.25 what is the low of that candlestick for 1.25 there
462 00:45:28 --> 00:45:33 is no zones. Okay, it's very specific prices. We're looking for very, very
463 00:45:33 --> 00:45:37 specific things in price, because if there is an algorithm for people that
464 00:45:37 --> 00:45:41 don't believe there is, then it would be repeating the same phenomenon and
465 00:45:41 --> 00:45:45 respecting very specific levels that we can predetermine as favorable or
466 00:45:45 --> 00:45:50 unfavorable, right? Did it leave the lower half of that gap open? Yes, it
467 00:45:50 --> 00:45:54 did. It didn't even touch the middle the consequent pressure level. So what does
468 00:45:54 --> 00:45:57 that mean? It's bullish. So that means you can trust that once it gets into
469 00:45:57 --> 00:46:01 this little New Day opening gap up here, it's going to do what it's going to
470 00:46:01 --> 00:46:09 accumulate, it's going to roll higher. Cleared the minor buy side I gave you
471 00:46:09 --> 00:46:13 there, and now it's accumulating again. We're sitting inside of a pool of
472 00:46:13 --> 00:46:21 liquidity here after taking this Judah swing ride, lower. Consequent
473 00:46:21 --> 00:46:29 encroachment. We've missed the 70% uh rule hitting it in the first 30 minutes.
474 00:46:29 --> 00:46:33 It doesn't mean just throw it out the window. It just means that it's most
475 00:46:33 --> 00:46:42 likely 70% of the time after 930 opening bell, if there's a large gap. Middle
476 00:46:42 --> 00:46:47 that gap, whatever that width of the gap is, from previous days settlement to the
477 00:46:47 --> 00:46:55 first opening price at 930 half of that gap, 70% of time, gets hit by 10 o'clock
478 00:46:55 --> 00:46:59 here, we don't see it. We've since I've been doing the mentorship and teach and
479 00:46:59 --> 00:47:02 taught it to you, we've seen one or two times where it hasn't done it, but
480 00:47:02 --> 00:47:08 eventually it gets hit. So you just gotta relax and just submit to the idea
481 00:47:08 --> 00:47:13 that it's still on the table to be taken okay. Now, because we've spent this much
482 00:47:13 --> 00:47:18 time accumulating around the first presented fair value gap, look at the
483 00:47:18 --> 00:47:24 bodies we whipped down through. But look at the bodies you're showing you. It's
484 00:47:24 --> 00:47:29 respecting it, right? So if we can manage to get above mid gap, I'd like to
485 00:47:29 --> 00:47:33 see it accelerate move higher, not just I don't want to see it do this, like
486 00:47:33 --> 00:47:36 wick above it and come and come back down. That's I'm not interested in
487 00:47:36 --> 00:47:40 something like that. I would rather see it trade up above it and start building
488 00:47:40 --> 00:47:44 things like the fair value gap here, the gap in here, we went down and worked the
489 00:47:44 --> 00:47:48 lower half of this one, which I told you was going to fail. It wasn't going to it
490 00:47:48 --> 00:47:51 wasn't going to provide a sell off. And anybody else out there that thinks they
491 00:47:51 --> 00:47:55 understand imbalances and stuff they may have looked at that said, Yes, you know,
492 00:47:55 --> 00:48:00 this is a short it's not even though you were looking at probably all these wicks
493 00:48:00 --> 00:48:04 in here. And he called these dojis. Steve Nielsen's class of students would
494 00:48:04 --> 00:48:08 have been looking at that and saying, Yeah, see, it's it's rejecting that. No,
495 00:48:08 --> 00:48:11 it's not. It's accumulating. It's accumulating. I'll show you in a second.
496 00:48:11 --> 00:48:20 Just realize, let me get drink the let me go real quick over here so I can get
497 00:48:20 --> 00:48:27 rid of this diagram. The entries I my entry for a bullish fair value gap is
498 00:48:27 --> 00:48:34 I'm one tick. Entry, entry, one tick entering above number three candles low.
499 00:48:35 --> 00:48:39 And if I don't find a way to get in like that, like say, I miss it, or I I'm
500 00:48:39 --> 00:48:44 doing something, you know, I my wife gets my attention. My dogs got out like
501 00:48:44 --> 00:48:47 this morning. I had to make sure my wife could get scout in because she's a
502 00:48:47 --> 00:48:53 little unruly. She's like the brat, the something keeps me from getting in. The
503 00:48:53 --> 00:48:56 trait at that very moment, I would rather have gotten into it. If I was
504 00:48:56 --> 00:49:01 watching a chart and say, the market is now just below it. As soon as I see it
505 00:49:01 --> 00:49:04 like that, I'm in it like that. I'm not messing around with it. I'm just
506 00:49:04 --> 00:49:07 marketing it. I need to be in there because that's what I'm looking for.
507 00:49:07 --> 00:49:12 Now, that might sound like, Oh, you're rushing to get money. No, I'm rushing to
508 00:49:12 --> 00:49:16 get in something I already would have been in. It's not like I'm chasing where
509 00:49:16 --> 00:49:20 it's going up already. It's all for me, a better price that I was willing to pay
510 00:49:20 --> 00:49:26 for a buy, but I just wasn't there to capture that buy. So now I had the
511 00:49:26 --> 00:49:29 wonderful opportunity of getting it at a deeper discount. So I'm going to go and
512 00:49:29 --> 00:49:33 read at the market. If it can touch the upper quadrant, I'll buy that too. If it
513 00:49:33 --> 00:49:37 touches the consequent encroachment, I'll buy that too. Anything less than
514 00:49:37 --> 00:49:42 that, I'm going to do one or two contracts. That's all I'm going to do,
515 00:49:43 --> 00:49:48 because I don't want to build it bigger, because down here in the lower half, I
516 00:49:48 --> 00:49:52 don't want to see it spend a lot of time there. If it does that at all, the ideal
517 00:49:52 --> 00:49:57 scenario is when price is up here and you expect it to drop down, because you
518 00:49:57 --> 00:50:02 think it's going to go up into a longer, higher Time Frame target. I just use
519 00:50:02 --> 00:50:07 this example right here, because this is exactly what we're diagramming there in
520 00:50:07 --> 00:50:09 that little hand drawn version of it.
521 00:50:12 --> 00:50:23 Take this off for a second so you can see so this here is this. So I'm trying
522 00:50:23 --> 00:50:29 to draw a red button, snap to the the magnet. Draws a little drawing things
523 00:50:29 --> 00:50:36 make some jump to it. There we are. So in an ideal scenario, this is what this
524 00:50:36 --> 00:50:40 is, candlestick number one. Is this candlestick? Right here? That's
525 00:50:40 --> 00:50:46 candlestick number one, right there a green candle. Candlestick number two,
526 00:50:46 --> 00:50:50 which is the fair value gap candle, that's this one. And candlestick number
527 00:50:50 --> 00:50:57 three, over here, that's this one. So that candlestick low plus one tick. In
528 00:50:57 --> 00:51:05 that case, it would be 19,004 zero, 4.25 that's where I would be entering. That's
529 00:51:05 --> 00:51:08 that's all I gotta get in. I gotta get in there. And I don't care that I'm
530 00:51:08 --> 00:51:13 gonna have a little bit of drawdown in this, because my belief is I'm not gonna
531 00:51:13 --> 00:51:18 see, likely, any movement into the lower half of that fair value guy. See what
532 00:51:18 --> 00:51:22 I'm saying. Like Chris Lori doesn't teach this, and everybody thinks that
533 00:51:22 --> 00:51:25 I'm rebranding that stuff. I made a facetious comment on Twitter this
534 00:51:25 --> 00:51:29 morning. I said I just brushed up on some trading books and I got some new
535 00:51:29 --> 00:51:34 things I can rename. And that was sarcasm, clearly, okay, but people have
536 00:51:34 --> 00:51:38 common sense, but there's nothing being repackaged here. There's no school
537 00:51:38 --> 00:51:41 thought out there that tells you to look at candlesticks like I'm teaching you
538 00:51:41 --> 00:51:45 and expect them to stay open. That's never been a thing in any anybody's
539 00:51:45 --> 00:51:48 discipline. It's never been there, but I'm telling you, that's what the
540 00:51:48 --> 00:51:52 algorithm does. There's a thing that goes on behind the scenes that I'm not
541 00:51:52 --> 00:51:56 going to tell you that, but visually, you can see when it's doing it a lot of
542 00:51:56 --> 00:51:59 times. Now, there are other times when it's doing it. You can't see it in price
543 00:51:59 --> 00:52:03 action. I'm aware of what's going on, but you aren't gonna be able to see it,
544 00:52:03 --> 00:52:06 so I can't teach a concept that shows you every instance of it. But do you
545 00:52:06 --> 00:52:11 need anything more? If this is all you ever learned how to do, you are already
546 00:52:11 --> 00:52:16 light years ahead of everybody else out there, everybody out everybody put
547 00:52:16 --> 00:52:19 anybody else's name in there. You're already beating their ass in terms of
548 00:52:19 --> 00:52:22 precision. Knowing what to look for. You're not freaking out. You know where
549 00:52:22 --> 00:52:26 to place your stop loss. 90% of these mentors out there don't even use a stop
550 00:52:26 --> 00:52:29 loss. They only know what they're using. They have to use a stop they're scared
551 00:52:29 --> 00:52:33 to death of it getting hit. I'm not afraid of that. You're not learning how
552 00:52:33 --> 00:52:36 to be afraid of that. Caleb, you're not afraid of getting stopped out because I
553 00:52:36 --> 00:52:38 just told you in this lecture too. Because if you get stopped out with a
554 00:52:38 --> 00:52:42 fair value gap, it tells you you're probably watching the formation of an
555 00:52:42 --> 00:52:45 inversion, fairy value and an inversion fair pay gap is just going the other
556 00:52:45 --> 00:52:50 direction, and you can trade with half the size you took a loss on and make
557 00:52:50 --> 00:52:55 that back and more and not even worry about it. You're not even worried. Why
558 00:52:55 --> 00:52:59 are you all fearful? You're trying to avoid losing. You don't need to feed.
559 00:52:59 --> 00:53:06 You don't need to feel that. So entries here, new entry there, or if you don't
560 00:53:06 --> 00:53:11 get that entry, if you, I don't know, you're scared, you're just now
561 00:53:11 --> 00:53:14 practicing for the first time. Okay, and you see it touch the upper quadrant,
562 00:53:14 --> 00:53:18 then go in and just do it at the market. But you want to do it as it's hitting it
563 00:53:19 --> 00:53:25 when price is dropping into this level, in this halfway point of the gap that
564 00:53:25 --> 00:53:29 measures number one candles, high number candle, number number three candles, low
565 00:53:30 --> 00:53:35 that range, half of that everything from this price point, the midpoint, which
566 00:53:36 --> 00:53:43 would in this case, would be 19,003 65 and a quarter to 19,003 78 even anything
567 00:53:43 --> 00:53:49 in that range is fair game to be a buyer. But not just any old, any old
568 00:53:49 --> 00:53:55 price. Look at the quadrants when you're grading an inefficiency, or you grade a
569 00:53:55 --> 00:53:59 wick, like I'm teaching you, there's a rhyme and a reason to what I'm teaching
570 00:53:59 --> 00:54:02 you. It's not just little words ambiguously, any level is going to
571 00:54:02 --> 00:54:05 eventually is going to eventually get hit. That's the, that's the assholes
572 00:54:05 --> 00:54:07 version of what I'm doing. They'll they'll say he has an excuse for
573 00:54:07 --> 00:54:12 anything. No, I have a science behind what I'm doing. I know exactly what I'm
574 00:54:12 --> 00:54:17 doing. I'm not winging it. Everything holds up, and I never I'm never changing
575 00:54:17 --> 00:54:21 the logic. I'm actually bringing you more depth and more precision elements
576 00:54:21 --> 00:54:27 to what it is that I do, and you're not entitled to it. So the best buys are in
577 00:54:27 --> 00:54:31 that upper half of that fear of a gap. Because we want to see this portion in
578 00:54:31 --> 00:54:42 an ideal world, in a perfect world, in an ICT world. You want to see this guy's
579 00:54:42 --> 00:54:51 arrogant. You want to see this right here? And then I gotta take that, that
580 00:54:51 --> 00:54:52 midline thing off
581 00:54:58 --> 00:55:05 the quadrant. I'm sorry. I. So yeah, ideal scenarios, when we get another
582 00:55:05 --> 00:55:10 candle that drops down in this fair value gap, it's the upper half the blue
583 00:55:10 --> 00:55:14 shaded area, like we have right here. In this example, any candlestick that drops
584 00:55:14 --> 00:55:17 down in there, we don't want to see it spending a lot of time in there. We want
585 00:55:17 --> 00:55:22 to see one at most, two times better if it's just once entering it like that,
586 00:55:23 --> 00:55:27 and if you can start to run after going in just the upper half feel confident
587 00:55:28 --> 00:55:32 that the lower half stays open for your benefit of knowing that you're on side.
588 00:55:32 --> 00:55:35 Now, does that mean you're never going to get stopped out? No, it just means
589 00:55:35 --> 00:55:40 that your your confidence should increase, and your level of uncertainty
590 00:55:40 --> 00:55:44 or the trepidation that you feel about potentially getting stopped out with
591 00:55:44 --> 00:55:50 your stop loss down here, below the fair value got low. It should be minimized as
592 00:55:50 --> 00:55:55 it moves further and further and further away from the fair value gap. And you
593 00:55:55 --> 00:55:58 see this happening, happening right here. And just look at the other
594 00:55:58 --> 00:56:04 lectures, the live streams from this playlist in 2024 I'm telling you that
595 00:56:04 --> 00:56:10 fair value gaps and anything that acts like an inefficiency, like a wick. If
596 00:56:10 --> 00:56:16 the wick is going to be bullish, we want to see the upper half of the wick keep
597 00:56:16 --> 00:56:19 price from trading into the lower half of the wick, regardless if the wick is
598 00:56:19 --> 00:56:26 above a candle's body, or below a candle body, it's the same thing. You know,
599 00:56:26 --> 00:56:32 they call these wicks, and then below it's a tail. I don't even go that far.
600 00:56:32 --> 00:56:37 I'm looking at a wick wherever it's at. And if it's above market price, then
601 00:56:37 --> 00:56:41 that wicks going to be a premium array. If it's below price, then it's going to
602 00:56:41 --> 00:56:44 be a discount array. So if it's a discount array, the same thing I'm
603 00:56:44 --> 00:56:48 teaching you about the fair value gap, my PD arrays work with the Wix the same
604 00:56:48 --> 00:56:52 way. It's very simple. It's not a very complicated thing. It's complicated if
605 00:56:52 --> 00:56:55 it's the first time you've been introduced to it, and I'll submit that,
606 00:56:56 --> 00:57:01 you know that's that's true. But I'm not trying to make something harder to hide
607 00:57:01 --> 00:57:05 it from you. It's just you haven't spent enough time going through lectures and
608 00:57:05 --> 00:57:10 watching you actually do it. So I can take all this mumbo jumbo off me. I'll
609 00:57:10 --> 00:57:14 give you a chance to get a screenshot of that. If you want it, you can draw your
610 00:57:14 --> 00:57:21 annotations on it. Okay, so this here is the same thing as this in a real market
611 00:57:21 --> 00:57:22 environment,
612 00:57:31 --> 00:57:35 or as close as I can get it to, to appear as the crude diagram I drew out.
613 00:57:35 --> 00:57:40 There you go. So that's this, okay, and the entry would be as another candle
614 00:57:40 --> 00:57:46 comes down and look how, look how fast it did here. That's also a clue. If,
615 00:57:46 --> 00:57:49 soon as the candle stick creates the fair value gap, if the next candle,
616 00:57:49 --> 00:57:53 number four, drops in and he starts running, chances are stronger that this
617 00:57:53 --> 00:57:57 lower half will stay open, and you really will feel confident enough to if
618 00:57:57 --> 00:58:00 you're recording it, you'll do the thing, same thing I do a lot. I'll say I
619 00:58:00 --> 00:58:04 want to see this stay open or remain unfilled. That's, that's usually what
620 00:58:04 --> 00:58:12 you see me typing out when I'm recording my executions. It could be, you know, a
621 00:58:12 --> 00:58:16 little bit of time before the market eventually comes back down into that
622 00:58:16 --> 00:58:21 fair value gap. And the same thing would appear in terms of the logic, so nothing
623 00:58:21 --> 00:58:26 changes there, but when they give it to you right away, that means it's going to
624 00:58:26 --> 00:58:29 be on a fast track to get somewhere quick. And that's the buy side I gave
625 00:58:29 --> 00:58:37 you over here. Okay, so this is also the lower quadrant to the opening range gap.
626 00:58:38 --> 00:58:45 Let's go down to the five minute chart real quick, and I'll pull this up. I'll
627 00:58:47 --> 00:58:54 show you what I mean by that. It seems like a whole lot of juggling, but I
628 00:58:54 --> 00:58:57 promise you, it's just because you're first now learning it. Once you do it a
629 00:58:57 --> 00:59:00 few times, and you make a general practice every single day, you're doing
630 00:59:00 --> 00:59:04 the same stuff, you'll see it's not hard, it's not complicated, and you'll
631 00:59:04 --> 00:59:07 know what to look for and what you're should be focusing on. But previous
632 00:59:07 --> 00:59:11 day's settlement here, which is Friday, that's where we stop trading there. So
633 00:59:11 --> 00:59:16 you drop your fib on that, you draw it down to the first opening tick of the
634 00:59:16 --> 00:59:20 new day, which is right now, 930 and that's where I dropped the FIB at this
635 00:59:20 --> 00:59:24 level here is the lower quadrant. This is the midpoint, or consequent
636 00:59:24 --> 00:59:28 encroachment. That's the level that 70% of the time in the first 30 minutes, it
637 00:59:28 --> 00:59:32 will at least touch. That hasn't done it today, and that's okay. We don't need it
638 00:59:32 --> 00:59:36 to in the upper quadrant level, and in the high this is previous day's
639 00:59:36 --> 00:59:40 settlement. So we've went above, spent some time here on the lower quadrant
640 00:59:40 --> 00:59:41 level.
641 00:59:46 --> 00:59:53 So back in the one minute chart, that's that lower quadrant level there. Okay,
642 00:59:53 --> 00:59:58 you see what? It just went up there, and it just hung around in that area and
643 00:59:58 --> 01:00:03 then broke lower and. I traded all the way down and through New Day, opening
644 01:00:03 --> 01:00:07 gap from Friday again, that's the wrong date. I hope the gentleman fixes this.
645 01:00:10 --> 01:00:14 This is the first one I ever looked at. I know there's a couple other coders and
646 01:00:14 --> 01:00:18 students don't mind that have invited me to take a look at their stuff. I will
647 01:00:18 --> 01:00:22 this week. I just can't do all of them at one time. So I just, I'd like to use
648 01:00:22 --> 01:00:26 this one first. It was the first one in the list of ones that were made
649 01:00:26 --> 01:00:31 available to me. And then here's first presented fair value gap, after swiping
650 01:00:31 --> 01:00:41 below that New Day gap of last Friday, and then turning up into that and then
651 01:00:41 --> 01:00:46 breaking lower, remaining heavy, then we're back down into this inefficiency.
652 01:00:46 --> 01:00:55 So I'm going to remove this now, hopefully it's communicated clear enough
653 01:00:55 --> 01:00:58 for you to know what I'm talking about and referring to if you watch my
654 01:00:58 --> 01:01:02 examples now, you'll understand a little bit more what I was doing at the time of
655 01:01:02 --> 01:01:09 the execution. Alrighty. Now let's real quick.
656 01:01:20 --> 01:01:23 Why did I tell you to begin the last year, and this was not a shorting
657 01:01:23 --> 01:01:31 opportunity? Well, we had started the morning consolidating. This is
658 01:01:31 --> 01:01:35 electronic trading hours every year, so it's not regular trading hours. So it
659 01:01:35 --> 01:01:40 spent a little bit of time just meandering sideways, and then it broke
660 01:01:40 --> 01:01:47 initially, right away after it had already dropped from previous Friday's
661 01:01:47 --> 01:01:55 settlement price. We had already, if we would've opened back here at 906, or
662 01:01:55 --> 01:02:01 849, that's significantly lower than Friday's settlement price. So we were
663 01:02:01 --> 01:02:06 already set up to have a big gap opening lower, and then if you have a lower gap
664 01:02:06 --> 01:02:11 opening, that's in the cards. And then she watched the 930 time window come to
665 01:02:11 --> 01:02:16 pass. And now here at 930 we open, and it is, send it lower. That's a Judah
666 01:02:16 --> 01:02:20 swing. You don't ever want to chase something like that. You're going to
667 01:02:20 --> 01:02:24 give up trading opportunities, and you're going to see people share that
668 01:02:24 --> 01:02:28 they did. I'll get this. I caught a short that's wonderful. I'm glad that
669 01:02:28 --> 01:02:32 somebody made money on that, but Caleb, I don't want you thinking you need to do
670 01:02:32 --> 01:02:36 that. Let it run out of steam, let it run out of gas. It's not important.
671 01:02:37 --> 01:02:40 You're going to capture the trade that makes sense for you and your model.
672 01:02:40 --> 01:02:43 That's all you're trying to do. You're not trying to trade somebody else's
673 01:02:43 --> 01:02:47 model. You're not trying to keep up with somebody else's equity curve. You're not
674 01:02:47 --> 01:02:50 trying to impress dad with doing it faster than you think. I think you
675 01:02:50 --> 01:02:55 should do it. I want you to do it at your own pace, slowly, not trying to
676 01:02:55 --> 01:03:00 keep up with the Joneses, not trying to make it heavier. It doesn't need to be
677 01:03:00 --> 01:03:04 heavier lifting than it needs to be, just based on what you have to learn. So
678 01:03:04 --> 01:03:10 don't complicate it. Let the price Run Run. When you start seeing the market
679 01:03:10 --> 01:03:15 create a swing low. This is your swing low, right here. What's that? That's a
680 01:03:15 --> 01:03:19 candlestick right there. Lowest candlestick that has a higher load to
681 01:03:19 --> 01:03:24 the right, higher low, to the left, and then you rate at that point, at that
682 01:03:24 --> 01:03:29 candlesticks closed there that opening, that's when I'm going back through all
683 01:03:29 --> 01:03:37 of this, to look for inefficiencies, to look for order blocks, to look for
684 01:03:37 --> 01:03:41 anything like a short term high where buy side would rest. Well, there is none
685 01:03:41 --> 01:03:46 of that in this. It's just it's just a one straight shot lower. So that also is
686 01:03:46 --> 01:03:49 characteristic of a Judas swing. It's something fake. They're going to run
687 01:03:49 --> 01:03:54 right back over top of that. If you look at the range that was created, them this
688 01:03:54 --> 01:04:04 drop down to that low. Where is this inefficiency. In other words, the thing
689 01:04:04 --> 01:04:09 I haven't shaded here below this candlesticks low to this candlesticks
690 01:04:09 --> 01:04:14 high, this one single candlestick right there that is a fair value guy. It is a
691 01:04:14 --> 01:04:18 city, a sell side and bounce buy side and efficiency. But it's in the lower
692 01:04:18 --> 01:04:23 half of the price drop from the opening bell at 930 to create that swing low.
693 01:04:23 --> 01:04:27 And I I seen that as soon as that candlestick closed, and this one started
694 01:04:27 --> 01:04:32 trading, I said, Okay, this one here is fake, and they rally it up into that,
695 01:04:32 --> 01:04:35 and they give you these little dojis and make you think, wow, it's going to drop.
696 01:04:35 --> 01:04:39 And I told you, Nope, it's not going to drop. I'd rather see it trade higher,
697 01:04:39 --> 01:04:43 and once it trades higher, it can come back down in but stay inside the upper
698 01:04:43 --> 01:04:48 half. We just saw Mohawk right there. It's all we saw there. It didn't go down
699 01:04:48 --> 01:04:52 to the lower half once it left it, which is, that's the, that's the inefficiency
700 01:04:52 --> 01:04:56 model that I'm teaching you. That's how you know behind the scenes the algorithm
701 01:04:56 --> 01:05:00 is saying, all right, anybody that knows this information, quote. Quote, smart
702 01:05:00 --> 01:05:03 money you're listening to, they're going to expect that that's not going to trade
703 01:05:03 --> 01:05:11 lower. And then it starts to rally. Once it leaves this inefficiency, you have
704 01:05:12 --> 01:05:16 several things you can look for, a return back into the top of that
705 01:05:17 --> 01:05:21 inefficiency, to treat that as a discount array. In other words, come
706 01:05:21 --> 01:05:29 down, hit it and repel it higher. I'm gonna take this off. Or what do we have
707 01:05:29 --> 01:05:35 in price? What's what's in this area right here? What do you see? See that
708 01:05:35 --> 01:05:45 big wick. See this inefficiency first, let me just real quick with the Volume
709 01:05:45 --> 01:05:46 of bounds.
710 01:05:55 --> 01:05:58 The tallest wick right there. Watch, I'm
711 01:06:11 --> 01:06:15 this candlestick leaves this inefficiency the way we were looking for
712 01:06:15 --> 01:06:21 it, to do it higher, not lower. So it's failed because it's in the lower half.
713 01:06:21 --> 01:06:28 Now, if this inefficiency was all overlapping candlesticks, but then this
714 01:06:28 --> 01:06:31 one was there, then I would say, if it got to here, then I would look to I
715 01:06:31 --> 01:06:35 would look for it to sell off a little bit. May not need to take out the loaded
716 01:06:35 --> 01:06:38 form there, but that would be one that could be tradable. And I'll show you
717 01:06:38 --> 01:06:43 examples of that today before we close. But here we have the consequent
718 01:06:43 --> 01:06:47 encroachment of this wick right there. So that means when this candlestick went
719 01:06:47 --> 01:06:50 up here and stopped the next one we opened, it's reasonable to anticipate
720 01:06:50 --> 01:06:54 it, to do what trade down to this candlesticks midpoint or consequent
721 01:06:54 --> 01:06:58 encroachment, to do what the send price higher, because this is a discount
722 01:06:58 --> 01:07:02 array, and price goes higher, and then we get the fair value gap that we've
723 01:07:02 --> 01:07:09 been talking about on talking about all morning. What is this? We trade down
724 01:07:09 --> 01:07:13 into it, inversion. Fair value gap sends it where lower. What color is it?
725 01:07:14 --> 01:07:19 Everybody knows what I'm teaching about. Inverse. Very value is an orange hue.
726 01:07:19 --> 01:07:22 That means when it goes down through it, it's going to treat it as, not as a
727 01:07:22 --> 01:07:29 buying opportunity. See, anybody else, they thought it had it like this, and I
728 01:07:29 --> 01:07:31 didn't say anything, you would have thought, Oh, he's he's signaling that
729 01:07:31 --> 01:07:35 it's going to go higher. But what color that hurricane make it orange? It's
730 01:07:35 --> 01:07:39 going to treat it as what it's going to go down into this inefficiency, not to
731 01:07:39 --> 01:07:46 create a buy but to fail. So this is why I'm telling you. I've seen so many
732 01:07:46 --> 01:07:50 people, and you got to let me get this off my chest, because it's irritating,
733 01:07:51 --> 01:07:54 and it's doing a disservice to the community, and it makes my stuff look
734 01:07:54 --> 01:07:58 like it's not correct or precise, because other people don't know what
735 01:07:58 --> 01:08:00 they're doing with these things, and they're trying to teach it. They're
736 01:08:00 --> 01:08:04 trying to sell it in courses. You can't do what I'm doing here. You have no idea
737 01:08:04 --> 01:08:09 what I'm doing. I'm teaching you. So that way, I can help my students. They
738 01:08:09 --> 01:08:12 are not your students. They're mine. They're paying you. I'm not getting
739 01:08:12 --> 01:08:15 anything from it, but the peace of mind knowing that you're going to parrot what
740 01:08:15 --> 01:08:17 I'm saying, if you're doing it correctly, you're going to say
741 01:08:17 --> 01:08:22 everything I'm teaching correctly, and then my students are going to do well,
742 01:08:22 --> 01:08:25 and you're going to get the applause for it, and you're going to get to pay for
743 01:08:25 --> 01:08:27 it, but I'm going to be able to sleep at night because I know that they're not
744 01:08:27 --> 01:08:31 going to lose their ass because you don't know what you're talking about. So
745 01:08:31 --> 01:08:34 that's why I get upset, because people are out there trying to teach something.
746 01:08:34 --> 01:08:38 They don't know You don't know what it is. You don't know how to do it. You can
747 01:08:38 --> 01:08:42 talk about it in hindsight. Only I am not out here hindsighting it. I'm
748 01:08:42 --> 01:08:44 telling you what the fuck is going to happen before it does it, how it should
749 01:08:44 --> 01:08:48 behave. Because it's very, very frustrating when I see emails from
750 01:08:48 --> 01:08:52 people saying I lost money trying to learn from this person that's teaching
751 01:08:52 --> 01:08:55 your stuff, and then I watched your live streams and live sessions, and you're
752 01:08:55 --> 01:08:58 doing it right in front of us and explaining it, and it's so much more
753 01:08:59 --> 01:09:05 better. It's more believable when it's shown real time. And that's all I'm
754 01:09:05 --> 01:09:07 demonstrating here. I already know people are going to take this stuff and
755 01:09:07 --> 01:09:11 teach it, and I just want you to do it the right way. I can't stop you from
756 01:09:11 --> 01:09:16 teaching it. I can't but what I can do is put a spotlight on you in social
757 01:09:16 --> 01:09:20 media and say you're full of shit. Stop doing that, because it ain't accurate.
758 01:09:20 --> 01:09:23 It's not real. And you're either putting my name against something that I don't
759 01:09:23 --> 01:09:28 stand with, or you're pretending that you know something that I've only
760 01:09:28 --> 01:09:34 introduced. I've only introduced these concepts, so I'm the one that's being
761 01:09:34 --> 01:09:39 responsible with the students, not you. So and getting if this is the only fair
762 01:09:39 --> 01:09:44 value got that exist below the halfway point that dropped lower, and it's the
763 01:09:44 --> 01:09:47 fact that we dropped straight from the opening that's what told me that that
764 01:09:47 --> 01:09:52 that gap is not something to go short on. It is something that you expected to
765 01:09:52 --> 01:09:55 go higher. And you can see the traps, okay, you know, there's these goobers
766 01:09:55 --> 01:10:01 out there that used to use my leaked content, and they rebranded it. And. WW,
767 01:10:01 --> 01:10:07 a guys, yeah, here's your plug. They're full of shit. So they took my stuff and
768 01:10:07 --> 01:10:11 rebranded stuff and turned a order block into a Wally block. Now, who the fuck is
769 01:10:11 --> 01:10:19 gonna want to trade a Wally block a Walmart block? Okay, come on, roll back
770 01:10:19 --> 01:10:27 the prices. Right? So anyway, when when you see these people and people like
771 01:10:27 --> 01:10:31 them that want to make a name for themselves and take shots, okay, I'm the
772 01:10:32 --> 01:10:37 one that's going to tell you the logic that works. And when you see retail
773 01:10:37 --> 01:10:42 logic like these dojis that are forming in here, these wicks that people will
774 01:10:42 --> 01:10:45 say, hey, that's rejection. It's rejecting that. And it's also one of
775 01:10:45 --> 01:10:51 those liquidity boids. It came back up and filled this inefficiency. And I'm
776 01:10:51 --> 01:10:55 telling you live stream that that's not what's going to happen. The opposite is
777 01:10:55 --> 01:11:02 going to happen. So I'm looking for retail traps. I know how a time
778 01:11:02 --> 01:11:06 distortion will make traders say the job is real and get all screwed up or not
779 01:11:06 --> 01:11:09 take a trade at all. When I can go in there and I can see what it's doing, and
780 01:11:09 --> 01:11:13 I can engage in I can trade with it. My students can trade with it. Not all of
781 01:11:13 --> 01:11:19 them, but they're learning. You can see right away why there is a sense of
782 01:11:19 --> 01:11:24 authority when I'm talking, when I'm teaching and when I'm reviewing things
783 01:11:24 --> 01:11:28 that I have authored and I can talk about before it happens, because I know
784 01:11:28 --> 01:11:33 I'm talking about and I it's my logic, because I have that, and I also
785 01:11:33 --> 01:11:38 understand, because I started as a retail thinking trader, everything that
786 01:11:38 --> 01:11:44 is taught in every retail teacher, course or book I am, I know about it. I
787 01:11:44 --> 01:11:49 wasted 1000s and 1000s and 1000s of dollars on that shit. And the only thing
788 01:11:49 --> 01:11:57 it does, it gives me a chess match. I'm Bobby Fisher, and this is the guy that
789 01:11:57 --> 01:12:01 just stopped playing checkers and bought his first chess book that that's,
790 01:12:01 --> 01:12:04 that's, that's the moments I'm looking for. And that's what we were looking at
791 01:12:04 --> 01:12:07 here, when we see these little wicks in here, and everybody else that thinks
792 01:12:07 --> 01:12:11 they understand inefficiencies, because it went up there like that, they think
793 01:12:11 --> 01:12:16 it wants to go where lower. And I'm telling you, the logic is no, because
794 01:12:16 --> 01:12:22 right at 930 it dropped initially, straight down, when we already was
795 01:12:22 --> 01:12:28 expecting a lower gap opening from Friday's settlement price. So it's
796 01:12:28 --> 01:12:32 already going to be opening at a real, real deep discount price. And then add
797 01:12:32 --> 01:12:36 to it, it opens and sells off. That's the public selling it. They're chasing.
798 01:12:36 --> 01:12:40 They're going to sell short sales and anything that they see as a reason to
799 01:12:40 --> 01:12:44 get short, they're going to take it. And what do they do? They lay the bait for
800 01:12:44 --> 01:12:52 them, dojis. Dojis inside of an inefficiency. No, thank you. Go ahead
801 01:12:52 --> 01:12:56 and take that cheese. Go ahead. Go for it, because you're going to get the
802 01:12:56 --> 01:12:59 metal behind your neck, and then I'm going to come over here and tell you
803 01:12:59 --> 01:13:04 it's going to go higher. And I run away, and I run to the minor buy side, in the
804 01:13:04 --> 01:13:08 direction of the halfway point of the opening range gap that need not be
805 01:13:08 --> 01:13:14 filled or delivered to, because you have an opportunity to take this trade to the
806 01:13:14 --> 01:13:17 first presented fairbay gap that could be your target, that would have been
807 01:13:17 --> 01:13:21 filled right there. What if? What if that's all you decide to do, Caleb, is
808 01:13:21 --> 01:13:28 there something wrong with that? No, there's nothing wrong with that. It's
809 01:13:28 --> 01:13:33 actually a low hanging fruit objective, because the draw would be high of day.
810 01:13:33 --> 01:13:40 Opening price by side, lower quadrant of the opening range, gap, mid gap, there
811 01:13:40 --> 01:13:43 are all potential areas where your partial could be taken or any one of
812 01:13:43 --> 01:13:50 them could be your terminus, your end target. So I'm providing you where the
813 01:13:50 --> 01:13:53 market's going to draw to, but you decide how you're going to frame it. Is
814 01:13:53 --> 01:13:56 it going to be the easiest one to get out of and be done? That's what all of
815 01:13:56 --> 01:14:03 you should do. Starting there, the easiest exit point that you can see,
816 01:14:03 --> 01:14:09 that you can comfortably wait for and get in, the easiest first opportunity,
817 01:14:09 --> 01:14:13 low hanging fruit, entry mechanism, and I taught that to you here today. Okay,
818 01:14:13 --> 01:14:19 exiting. You're looking for the easiest exit, if you're if you're expecting it
819 01:14:19 --> 01:14:28 to trade higher here. Well, what's the first gap? That's this one here, the
820 01:14:28 --> 01:14:37 liquidity here, lower quadrant opening range, consequent craftsman, the the
821 01:14:37 --> 01:14:41 midpoint of the opening range gap, the difference between Friday settlement
822 01:14:41 --> 01:14:45 price and the opening ticket 930 on this candlestick right there, which
823 01:14:45 --> 01:14:48 technically now I look at that, I just say, mistake. You probably, you're
824 01:14:48 --> 01:14:51 probably saying that screaming, and you're probably even tweeting it to me
825 01:14:51 --> 01:14:54 or leaving comments on my most recent post. That's not the first paragraph,
826 01:14:54 --> 01:14:58 and you, you'd be right. I didn't look at the time. I'm sorry. It's my mistake.
827 01:14:59 --> 01:15:07 That's their very first. A fair value gap. So I apologize there. It can't be
828 01:15:07 --> 01:15:11 on your 930 candle. It can only appear at 931 or after. So this is your very
829 01:15:11 --> 01:15:15 first fair value gap. So I was incorrect by saying all that stuff, but then they
830 01:15:15 --> 01:15:18 had that, excuse me, you had the gap that we've been talking about that's
831 01:15:18 --> 01:15:23 inside that. So that's kind of interesting, isn't it? But the the
832 01:15:23 --> 01:15:27 targeting aspect of what you're looking for from where you expect price to run
833 01:15:27 --> 01:15:33 from to where it's going to gravitate to in that first 10, I'm sorry, first 30
834 01:15:33 --> 01:15:37 minutes to 10 o'clock, you're always looking for an opportunity for it to try
835 01:15:37 --> 01:15:42 to get to the halfway gap. So consequent correction of the opening range gap. In
836 01:15:42 --> 01:15:49 my mind, that is my always first draw. I want to see that because there's a 70%
837 01:15:50 --> 01:15:54 chance that's likely to happen if there's something before this level,
838 01:15:56 --> 01:16:00 like these smooth highs the opening price, which is a static it's not some
839 01:16:00 --> 01:16:04 zone. It's a very specific price level. If you aimed for that, that's, that's,
840 01:16:04 --> 01:16:08 that's a good level. And you have the first very, the first variable here. So
841 01:16:09 --> 01:16:13 does that give you much room, leaving this area here, where we set it live,
842 01:16:13 --> 01:16:16 that this wasn't going to be a sell, it's actually something you want to see
843 01:16:16 --> 01:16:19 a trade higher from it doesn't give you much room to profit. So that's not that
844 01:16:19 --> 01:16:23 all that important. So because we're thinking it's going to go up to opening
845 01:16:23 --> 01:16:27 range gap, how can you use this inefficiency here, if you didn't look at
846 01:16:27 --> 01:16:31 the fairbair like I outlined it when it was happening, and you were looking at
847 01:16:31 --> 01:16:35 this correctly, because I made the mistake of not recognizing that that was
848 01:16:35 --> 01:16:39 the 930 candle. But I'm teaching us. I'm doing it too. So it's a whole lot of
849 01:16:39 --> 01:16:42 things going on, and I'm doing over a one minute chart, so it's not as easy as
850 01:16:42 --> 01:16:46 it looks. And if you think it is, do it. I'd love to watch your live stream the
851 01:16:46 --> 01:16:53 and I promise I won't troll you. The gap in here, this drop down into that fair
852 01:16:53 --> 01:16:59 value gap, is also tapping into this gap, which is if we're expecting it to
853 01:16:59 --> 01:17:05 go higher. Here is this gap a cell? No Why? Because the opening range got
854 01:17:06 --> 01:17:09 midpoint or consequence encroachments up here. It's still likely to be traded to
855 01:17:10 --> 01:17:15 here. What time is that? It's 948 what time is this candlestick when it would
856 01:17:15 --> 01:17:18 have gave you a buy, based on everything we've been talking about in this live
857 01:17:18 --> 01:17:25 stream, it's 950 what is that macro? Time? 10 minutes to 10 to 10 minutes
858 01:17:25 --> 01:17:30 after 10, that's your macro. It's going to do what run to inefficiency or run to
859 01:17:30 --> 01:17:35 liquidity. Okay? Well, we know that bias wise, it's likely to draw up to half of
860 01:17:35 --> 01:17:40 the gap. Some of you, probably a lot of you, are looking at the fact that we
861 01:17:40 --> 01:17:43 didn't get there, and you're thinking, it doesn't work, it doesn't work. It's
862 01:17:43 --> 01:17:48 the draw. It's the direction, the first initial draw. How do you know what side
863 01:17:48 --> 01:17:53 the market to trade on? I'm teaching that it doesn't need to trade at these
864 01:17:53 --> 01:17:58 levels 70% of the time is not 100% of the time. So how do you find something
865 01:17:58 --> 01:18:04 that's profitable in in that model, if you see this as the first fair value
866 01:18:04 --> 01:18:07 gap, and we I didn't even need to frame any of this on that. I was framing on
867 01:18:07 --> 01:18:13 the basis of watching this one form. So this, it just adds to it that that is
868 01:18:14 --> 01:18:18 not necessary. But let's just say that you saw it as the first fair value gap,
869 01:18:18 --> 01:18:22 and we're expecting it to trade up to the open range, gap consequence
870 01:18:22 --> 01:18:27 midpoint, and attack these smooth highs. Well, then you would expect it to trade
871 01:18:27 --> 01:18:34 through this gap here and do what, find the support, treat it as a discount
872 01:18:34 --> 01:18:40 array, and rally higher. At the time, when we were watching it, we were
873 01:18:40 --> 01:18:45 looking at how these these candles, shared the same space between the two.
874 01:18:46 --> 01:18:49 One was offering it to the downside. One was offering it to the upside. So this
875 01:18:49 --> 01:18:56 is treated as a balanced price range, and the market rallies higher, attacks
876 01:18:56 --> 01:19:02 the buy side, the lower quadrant level of the opening range gap, and then did
877 01:19:02 --> 01:19:06 not trade to opening range gap, constant encroachment. But what did they leave
878 01:19:06 --> 01:19:17 here? What's up here? Now that's primary buy side liquidity. I
879 01:19:25 --> 01:19:32 Why is this primary? Because we cleared a higher high of the day. This is
880 01:19:32 --> 01:19:38 initial high day at 930 drop. Judas rallies over top. All that price action
881 01:19:38 --> 01:19:41 reaches into lower quadrant, fails to get the opening range, constant
882 01:19:41 --> 01:19:48 encouragement of that gap, and then they leave high, lower, high. That's a valid
883 01:19:48 --> 01:19:54 trap. So traders that are trying to go short their their orders to protect that
884 01:19:54 --> 01:19:59 short are resting right there. It. Need not trade it to it today, but you have
885 01:19:59 --> 01:20:05 to. Have that level as a key level until we go through it this week. That's a
886 01:20:05 --> 01:20:08 level that I have in my notepad. Give me a second.
887 01:20:16 --> 01:20:30 19, 460, 3.50 i Five zero, if you don't, if you don't have a pad, a writing
888 01:20:30 --> 01:20:33 instrument, next to you, while you're watching price action, you're doing it
889 01:20:33 --> 01:20:37 wrong, because, if it only appears inside your chart, you're not doing it
890 01:20:37 --> 01:20:42 right. Like, I look at the raw numbers when I'm done like I'm I'm away from the
891 01:20:42 --> 01:20:47 charts. I look at the raw numbers, and I think to myself how they might use it in
892 01:20:47 --> 01:20:52 the next session, which is the lunch macro. And then I look at how the
893 01:20:52 --> 01:20:57 numbers are used for the afternoon, and I formulate a possible scenario, because
894 01:20:57 --> 01:21:00 I know this is the high of the day now, and they formed it with relative equal
895 01:21:00 --> 01:21:08 highs. We've broken this. This is, this was initially what minor cell side. I
896 01:21:08 --> 01:21:12 didn't label it because I'm still not actively teaching, but this has now been
897 01:21:12 --> 01:21:16 broken. So that minor cell side that would have been annotated as such, this
898 01:21:16 --> 01:21:22 now is primary cell side, because it's taken out the initial low today. So
899 01:21:22 --> 01:21:26 here's primary sell side, primary buy side, because it's taken out high here
900 01:21:27 --> 01:21:30 and this low is taken out here. So to take out this low is a much more
901 01:21:30 --> 01:21:41 meaningful event. It doesn't mean it can't super this means that it's a lot
902 01:21:41 --> 01:21:48 more meaningful how we trade around it, and I'll explain A second left. I
903 01:22:00 --> 01:22:01 left so
904 01:22:26 --> 01:22:31 now, because we've taken this low out with this drop down, we rallied up
905 01:22:33 --> 01:22:37 consequent encroachment of this gap over here when we traded down through it,
906 01:22:37 --> 01:22:41 here you see how it offered it as a premium array and then sold off into
907 01:22:41 --> 01:22:47 this inefficiency right here there. See that now that we're rallying above, I
908 01:22:47 --> 01:22:50 would like to see this now with the color that it is here. I'd like to see
909 01:22:50 --> 01:22:55 it be treated as a reclaimed fair value gap, so where we would have expected
910 01:22:55 --> 01:22:58 initially, if we were not fully understanding what is that goes on the
911 01:22:58 --> 01:23:03 marketplace the first time it drops into that someone might think that, okay,
912 01:23:03 --> 01:23:08 that's when those ICT buys, when that's the that's the draw there. And we knew
913 01:23:08 --> 01:23:15 that when this was a inversion Fairbank earlier, we sold off from here to here
914 01:23:15 --> 01:23:19 into that Fairbank. That is a trade setup that I think that my son would do
915 01:23:19 --> 01:23:24 well with. It's a real easy bread and butter type setup. Now that we rally
916 01:23:24 --> 01:23:30 back above this gap over here, I want to see this act as an inversion fair value
917 01:23:30 --> 01:23:34 gap. It need not trade to it, but if it does, if it trades down into it, we can
918 01:23:34 --> 01:23:38 use that as a stepping stone to see if we can get to the buy side. That's a
919 01:23:38 --> 01:23:40 minor buy side right in here. It does highs. I'm
920 01:24:09 --> 01:24:13 and because you have this inefficiency over here, you want to drag that over
921 01:24:13 --> 01:24:20 too. And both of these
922 01:24:26 --> 01:24:32 areas in here, I'm going to watch to see if they can find some support at them or
923 01:24:32 --> 01:24:39 inside of them, or if we quickly run into this down closed candle here, this
924 01:24:39 --> 01:24:43 down closed candle should not see its halfway point or mean threshold traded
925 01:24:43 --> 01:24:49 to if it does, it's it's not good. And that means that most likely, we're
926 01:24:49 --> 01:24:53 probably going to go lower and probably trade lower for the duration into the
927 01:24:53 --> 01:24:58 lunch hours. And where we're at right now, I would be more I would be more
928 01:24:58 --> 01:25:01 comfortable looking for it to try. Trade up into that minor buy side that I
929 01:25:01 --> 01:25:05 haven't annotated here, because that would be a little stop hunt inside of
930 01:25:05 --> 01:25:10 the run from here down. The only time we've had a stop hunt, we've done it on
931 01:25:10 --> 01:25:14 this little wick. I don't like that. I want to see a bodied swing high,
932 01:25:15 --> 01:25:18 something like this, versus something like that. Because we already hit that.
933 01:25:18 --> 01:25:24 We went lower, excuse me, and then we ride back up. We haven't taken this high
934 01:25:24 --> 01:25:29 out yet, but we're respecting the lower half of this inefficiency by definition
935 01:25:29 --> 01:25:31 that's actually indicating it's weak. I'm
936 01:26:00 --> 01:26:05 so you have to stop and think for yourself, what has the most money been
937 01:26:05 --> 01:26:12 made on most recently? Would you say being long or being short? Because this
938 01:26:12 --> 01:26:16 is what you do when you trade the lunch macro. I'm going to be with you till the
939 01:26:16 --> 01:26:20 noon today. So we're going to have this a little bit longer one today, and each
940 01:26:20 --> 01:26:23 day the rest of the week, it'll be shorter, because I'm just going in and
941 01:26:23 --> 01:26:27 taking one or two setups and then closing the session out, because that's
942 01:26:27 --> 01:26:32 what I want my son to do, get in, get his and go. So yeah, we went down into
943 01:26:32 --> 01:26:36 half of this gap between this candlesticks high, that candlesticks
944 01:26:36 --> 01:26:46 low, and the bodies just went outside of that inefficiency is low over here. So
945 01:26:46 --> 01:26:50 it's left that lower portion open. So if we can, soon as we trade above this high
946 01:26:50 --> 01:26:57 here, that cancels all this, remove, not remove this inability to move to the
947 01:26:57 --> 01:27:03 upper half up here, of this inefficiency. Now I can imagine when I
948 01:27:03 --> 01:27:06 first started talking about this to Caleb, you know, I was thinking, this is
949 01:27:06 --> 01:27:10 going to be real easy for me to explain him. And as I started to explain it, and
950 01:27:10 --> 01:27:17 the deer in headlights look on his face was like, Oh, this isn't going to be as
951 01:27:17 --> 01:27:21 easy as I thought it was for you to pick it up. And I started to second guess
952 01:27:21 --> 01:27:29 myself as a as a teacher, for the very reasons of not feeling comfortable
953 01:27:29 --> 01:27:34 reaching for the words I thought were going to be easy for him to grasp and
954 01:27:34 --> 01:27:41 say, Oh yeah, I could see that that. And I guess it's me taking light of how long
955 01:27:41 --> 01:27:46 I've been doing it, I naturally think that it should be everybody. If I'm
956 01:27:46 --> 01:27:49 going to sit down with you, one on one, it should be real easy for you to do it.
957 01:27:49 --> 01:27:55 And it's, it's a little disheartening to see how when I start to do it one on one
958 01:27:55 --> 01:28:00 again, it's like it's not as easy as I want it to be for them. And it's because
959 01:28:00 --> 01:28:04 it's my son. I really, really wanted to pick it up easy, and still, it requires
960 01:28:04 --> 01:28:09 some work ethic and effort and first learning the language. So you can see
961 01:28:09 --> 01:28:13 right away, like by me, having all these things on my chart, which is what you're
962 01:28:13 --> 01:28:20 not used to seeing me. Do you have to see the dynamic around how the markets
963 01:28:20 --> 01:28:26 operating in them. Otherwise you're not going to fully appreciate it. And when
964 01:28:26 --> 01:28:31 you're looking at your charts and you're back testing, like I said, I prefer to
965 01:28:31 --> 01:28:36 see this inefficiency support price. I like the fact that we haven't broke down
966 01:28:36 --> 01:28:40 yet, but if it does, and the midpoint of this down closed candle sets the stage
967 01:28:40 --> 01:28:46 for a run below that. I'm looking at these highs here as they're trying to
968 01:28:46 --> 01:28:50 trust, or build in trust that anyone that's short, they're going to want to
969 01:28:50 --> 01:28:54 drop their stop loss down here. And if that happens to be the case, they may
970 01:28:54 --> 01:28:59 take out that low or this low, and then run for that area, because it'll give
971 01:28:59 --> 01:29:02 them reasons to buy below this low. If they take it below that low, they can
972 01:29:02 --> 01:29:06 buy that and then start distributing those longs here, then here, and work
973 01:29:06 --> 01:29:13 inside all this range, back up to New Day, opening gap. And what I just did
974 01:29:13 --> 01:29:16 there is probably like, how did you get to that? That's experience. But you
975 01:29:16 --> 01:29:20 don't need that, not in the beginning, because you don't have any to work with
976 01:29:20 --> 01:29:26 Caleb, you have to get this every single day by being in the charts. You just
977 01:29:26 --> 01:29:30 want the obvious, easy setups, the ones you can see clearly. If it's not
978 01:29:30 --> 01:29:35 obvious, you can't be mad about it when you missed it. And as you do this more
979 01:29:35 --> 01:29:42 and more, for all everyone else, that's a little block right there. So since we
980 01:29:42 --> 01:29:49 tapped it, it needs to start delivering above here. Any failure to go lower sets
981 01:29:49 --> 01:29:52 the stage where I run lower into that, and then we could probably just keep
982 01:29:52 --> 01:29:58 dipping lower into it, into a lower daily range. I.
983 01:30:07 --> 01:30:13 I'll just say, Oh, the most obvious runs where the market is clearly in the first
984 01:30:13 --> 01:30:17 30 minutes, you have a lot of advantage knowing where, if there's a large range
985 01:30:17 --> 01:30:24 gap, that halfway point of that gap is such an easy just man, that's like, it's
986 01:30:24 --> 01:30:28 an obvious thing. It's obvious. It doesn't mean you're going to be right
987 01:30:28 --> 01:30:31 every single time trying to trade for it, but if that's where you're going to
988 01:30:31 --> 01:30:35 start with as your foundation, it's going to serve you very, very well. And
989 01:30:35 --> 01:30:40 in this case, you saw that we had my side, it went to that lower quadrant. It
990 01:30:40 --> 01:30:44 went to that and just fell short of opening range gap consequence, which is
991 01:30:44 --> 01:30:52 still here. So what I'm looking at is I'm seeing how we left those smooth
992 01:30:52 --> 01:30:58 highs. Mid gap is still up here, hasn't, hasn't been traded to we had a really
993 01:30:58 --> 01:31:04 nice short term low that was priced in quickly. We folded, went lower, took
994 01:31:04 --> 01:31:10 that low out here, failed to go lower there, but we're building this little
995 01:31:10 --> 01:31:16 clean area. This candlestick is to trigger whether or not we see it go
996 01:31:16 --> 01:31:21 higher enough if it's going to go higher. I don't care about all the mess
997 01:31:21 --> 01:31:25 around here, and I can, I can trade above this area, if I'm going to, if I
998 01:31:25 --> 01:31:30 want to go long, to get this smooth high in consequent encouragement mid gap, if
999 01:31:30 --> 01:31:34 I'm aiming for that, if I'm bullish, that's what I'm aiming for. I don't have
1000 01:31:34 --> 01:31:38 anything to do yet. I'm trying to stay with you long enough today to do
1001 01:31:38 --> 01:31:41 something I don't want to. I don't want to, I don't want to close the stream and
1002 01:31:41 --> 01:31:45 not have pressed the button. That's what I'm doing. If I would have traded by
1003 01:31:45 --> 01:31:49 now, and took and took a trade and showed you where stop would be, where
1004 01:31:49 --> 01:31:52 I'd look for the run to, I would already close the stream now,
1005 01:32:02 --> 01:32:06 but it rolls through this consequent, or, I'm sorry, mean threshold, this down
1006 01:32:06 --> 01:32:13 closed candle, that's this, if it's bullish, it shouldn't trade and go below
1007 01:32:13 --> 01:32:18 on a closing basis. No candlestick should close below this mean threshold.
1008 01:32:18 --> 01:32:21 It can stab through it. It can theoretically stab all the way down and
1009 01:32:21 --> 01:32:27 match the same candlesticks low. It's bad. It's not the best for something
1010 01:32:27 --> 01:32:35 like that happen. But in theory, it can do that. Ideally, the upper half should
1011 01:32:35 --> 01:32:40 keep price at bay and not go lower if it's bullish, but if it can keep going
1012 01:32:40 --> 01:32:44 down and touch that midpoint that's indicating that it's not something good.
1013 01:32:44 --> 01:32:48 Now, what you're saying is what happens if you're buying that? I'm not trying to
1014 01:32:48 --> 01:32:52 buy an order block today. I'm trying to trade the fair value gap, but I'm giving
1015 01:32:52 --> 01:32:56 the logic around price action until a fair value got forms that I would be
1016 01:32:56 --> 01:33:00 willing to take. See that violates it, and look how, look how fast and
1017 01:33:00 --> 01:33:06 accelerate through the bottom of it. What you're looking at is how I'm taking
1018 01:33:06 --> 01:33:13 a motor block to frame a displacement higher or lower in that next price run,
1019 01:33:13 --> 01:33:17 then I have to reassess and see what is it reaching for. Now, just done this,
1020 01:33:17 --> 01:33:22 expecting it to fail. That's part of using the PD arrays, because it gives
1021 01:33:22 --> 01:33:32 you sit still or go the other direction. In other words, it gives you the rhyme
1022 01:33:32 --> 01:33:35 or reason where most traders, most mentors out there, that are out there
1023 01:33:35 --> 01:33:38 trying to teach they don't know, they don't know what they're doing. They're
1024 01:33:38 --> 01:33:41 reacting to price. They're chasing price. Their momentum breakout artists.
1025 01:33:42 --> 01:33:46 That's not me, all right, so now we have the potential of this little Fairbank
1026 01:33:46 --> 01:33:51 gap right in here. It's not there yet, but as long as we don't take out that
1027 01:33:51 --> 01:33:53 low right in here, we might have something to work with.
1028 01:34:02 --> 01:34:17 I'm might not end up becoming a immediate rebalance. Immediate rebalance
1029 01:34:17 --> 01:34:21 is coming right back to this candle sticks low, if it touches that means the
1030 01:34:21 --> 01:34:27 very next candle, or that candle, usually we'll see it running the same
1031 01:34:27 --> 01:34:35 direction it was Moving prior. Yeah, not much of a gap now.
1032 01:34:42 --> 01:34:50 Yes, I'd consider it immediate rebalance. I'm watching the wick in
1033 01:34:50 --> 01:34:54 here. If it can stay in the lower half of it and not trade it above it or an
1034 01:34:54 --> 01:34:58 upper half without taking out that high, it should roll right over and attack
1035 01:34:58 --> 01:34:59 that that low here.
1036 01:35:50 --> 01:35:55 So if you were looking at this candlestick like I was outlining it, if
1037 01:35:56 --> 01:36:00 it was going to be bullish, the upper half of that to the midpoint should be
1038 01:36:00 --> 01:36:05 doing. What with price supporting it? If it trades to its middle point, which is
1039 01:36:05 --> 01:36:09 mean threshold, it indicates it's weak. So now, what happens when you start
1040 01:36:09 --> 01:36:16 trading up into that same range here? It should stay in the lower half of this
1041 01:36:16 --> 01:36:19 candlestick and then drop down and attack that sell side, right there. So
1042 01:36:30 --> 01:36:35 so there's all kinds of trades here, but I'm forcing myself to operate on the
1043 01:36:35 --> 01:36:39 basis of just the fair value gap. You gotta wait for The fair value gap. I
1044 01:37:28 --> 01:37:33 so if you looked at this wick here, that's comp con version of that wick
1045 01:37:36 --> 01:37:43 halfway. So using the middle of the order block there and immediate
1046 01:37:43 --> 01:37:46 rebalance trading down to that. That's something that's tradable. It's not
1047 01:37:46 --> 01:37:49 something that I like to trade. Obviously, you guys see I trade pretty
1048 01:37:49 --> 01:37:53 big, pretty big ranges in the targets are not like 10 points or something like
1049 01:37:53 --> 01:37:58 that. But I'm going to try to find something before we close the session. I
1050 01:37:58 --> 01:38:02 promise you, I'm not closing this session down until I push the button the
1051 01:38:05 --> 01:38:09 the initial 15 handles, or 20 handles. That's kind of like what I want to see
1052 01:38:09 --> 01:38:14 Caleb try to trade with if you can't make at least 15 handles from it. I
1053 01:38:14 --> 01:38:17 don't want him to be trying to take a trade in it. And if we get the
1054 01:38:17 --> 01:38:22 formations that I'm outlining for him, I'll explain to you what I'm looking
1055 01:38:22 --> 01:38:26 for, why it's viable. Because if it can't make at least 15 handles, that
1056 01:38:26 --> 01:38:30 means that means that 20 handles should be easy to see from my target, from
1057 01:38:30 --> 01:38:36 where I'm trying to get in at. So from target to the entry, there should be at
1058 01:38:36 --> 01:38:40 least 20 handles run in between there that should afford me the opportunity,
1059 01:38:40 --> 01:38:46 or by theory, it should afford him 15 handles as a profit objective. I don't
1060 01:38:46 --> 01:38:49 like the 10 handle stuff. I mean, you can if you want to do that. But if you
1061 01:38:49 --> 01:38:53 look at price action, 10 handles, for some of you that are probably wondering
1062 01:38:53 --> 01:38:57 what that is, that's this, you
1063 01:39:05 --> 01:39:10 uh, that's, that's, that's 10 handles. That's static, that's static price
1064 01:39:10 --> 01:39:14 action like it could just be moving around inside of a small little
1065 01:39:14 --> 01:39:20 consolidation, and got not even going area in that 10 handles, you can get
1066 01:39:20 --> 01:39:25 stopped out and be right if you're just trying to trade in, you know,
1067 01:39:25 --> 01:39:28 consolidations or time distortion, which is basically what we're seeing here.
1068 01:39:28 --> 01:39:33 This is all time distortion, which is means you have to sit and wait. Wait for
1069 01:39:33 --> 01:39:36 them, wait for them to give you something obvious and right now it's not
1070 01:39:36 --> 01:39:43 obvious, so you wait. So it would need to do something like this, give me a
1071 01:39:43 --> 01:39:50 move that affords me or him specifically. But while I execute in
1072 01:39:50 --> 01:39:56 front of you, it has to give me this much range potential, because I could
1073 01:39:56 --> 01:40:01 still probably fancy dance and get 15 handles out of that and still. So if
1074 01:40:01 --> 01:40:05 even trade turns around, I should be able to take 15 out of that, but 10
1075 01:40:05 --> 01:40:11 handles like that. When you're when you have a market that's moving around like
1076 01:40:11 --> 01:40:15 this on a day by day basis, it's, it's kind of like it's not worth it. I'm not
1077 01:40:15 --> 01:40:19 going to sit in front of the charts just to get something like that, because the
1078 01:40:19 --> 01:40:26 the risk models that are associated with that in a market like nq, you have a
1079 01:40:26 --> 01:40:29 high degree of probability of getting stopped out with just that much movement
1080 01:40:29 --> 01:40:35 against you, and you can still be right in the direction, but you have to afford
1081 01:40:35 --> 01:40:42 yourself a measure of risk and 1010, handles for 10 handles, that's not what
1082 01:40:42 --> 01:40:47 I want my son to do. Let's just put it that way. So we've taken out the sell
1083 01:40:47 --> 01:40:52 side here. Now here's the order block. This could become reclaimed order block
1084 01:40:52 --> 01:41:00 bullish and run for the buy side here. I like this, if we can maintain that
1085 01:41:00 --> 01:41:06 evaporated here, so let me get this out of the way.
1086 01:41:18 --> 01:41:24 All right, so Caleb would have a low that's taken out that low over here. Now
1087 01:41:24 --> 01:41:29 we have this low that was taken out here, and we have clean highs, an
1088 01:41:29 --> 01:41:34 undelivered half midway between the opening range, gap high and low that has
1089 01:41:34 --> 01:41:40 not been traded to today. I'm drawing this. The Gap's not there. I'm just
1090 01:41:40 --> 01:41:48 saying if it, if it closed now, now we have it, this candle sticks low.
1091 01:41:58 --> 01:42:04 That candle sticks low to these equal highs, that is definitely what that's
1092 01:42:04 --> 01:42:05 enough handles, right?
1093 01:42:19 --> 01:42:27 And you start the clock from the time of entry. What time did you get into the
1094 01:42:27 --> 01:42:34 trade? How much risk? This is the candlestick number two stop goes below
1095 01:42:34 --> 01:42:43 it. Here's your target, and you just watch if it stops you out. You write
1096 01:42:43 --> 01:42:48 down how long it took to get stopped out, how much drawdown you you took on
1097 01:42:48 --> 01:42:53 the trade that would be monetized. How much money did you lose. Then, how fast
1098 01:42:53 --> 01:42:58 did it take if it gets to your target, how fast did it get there? And you do
1099 01:42:58 --> 01:43:02 this as many times as you can afford to do it in in your study that's all the
1100 01:43:02 --> 01:43:06 lower time frames will give you more opportunities so that we can do a lot of
1101 01:43:06 --> 01:43:10 these types of exercises. It's not a matter of being right or wrong. It's a
1102 01:43:10 --> 01:43:14 matter of desensitizing yourself to it. You don't want to be in here trying to
1103 01:43:14 --> 01:43:18 be accurate on every single one, because it's not realistic for you. Caleb, you
1104 01:43:18 --> 01:43:22 don't you don't know what you're doing. You're testing the theory. It's already
1105 01:43:22 --> 01:43:28 tried to go lower, like taking this low out here. This low was taken out here,
1106 01:43:28 --> 01:43:31 but this low did not take out that low. And we have clean highs that could be
1107 01:43:31 --> 01:43:38 easily trailed to for buy stops that are used more or less they protect the
1108 01:43:38 --> 01:43:44 people that are short. So all the movement here. Anyone that's short up in
1109 01:43:44 --> 01:43:50 here or shorted there, that's actually a nice one. As the market went lower, they
1110 01:43:50 --> 01:43:55 created these smooth highs here, and they took price below here. So traders
1111 01:43:55 --> 01:44:02 that use this as a sell stop to get short. Their short position is triggered
1112 01:44:02 --> 01:44:08 to get them in when it went below that low right there. So retail is thinking
1113 01:44:08 --> 01:44:12 that it's going to keep going lower, because they've watched what they've
1114 01:44:12 --> 01:44:17 watched, all this movement go lower, and by having that break out below to the
1115 01:44:17 --> 01:44:23 downside like that, it it provides them a trust factor that is in a lot of ways,
1116 01:44:23 --> 01:44:32 it's like bait. I don't know how to describe any of the word escapes now,
1117 01:44:32 --> 01:44:39 I'll probably have a better analogy once we close the stream now, but the you can
1118 01:44:39 --> 01:44:46 reduce this the stop now. It should not go back inside of the fair value gap. If
1119 01:44:46 --> 01:44:52 it does, that's fine. You have something that you can measure. It's not it's not
1120 01:44:52 --> 01:44:54 something that's going to always pan out. When you do it with your Live
1121 01:44:54 --> 01:44:59 account and going in, you're submitting yourself to what is the market doing,
1122 01:44:59 --> 01:45:03 and what's it most like? Really do everybody, primarily has made money
1123 01:45:03 --> 01:45:08 being short today. So it's reasonable to expect the market will do what roll
1124 01:45:08 --> 01:45:12 against those positions that are in favor. That means the market's going to
1125 01:45:12 --> 01:45:18 try to go against those that are in profit for the purpose of taking them
1126 01:45:18 --> 01:45:24 out of it. When you do these exercises, Caleb, you're not trying to be right?
1127 01:45:25 --> 01:45:28 You're not trying to show Dad You made this much money. There is no dollar
1128 01:45:28 --> 01:45:32 targets that you're not aiming for, that you're not aiming for a harvest of
1129 01:45:32 --> 01:45:36 certain number of handles. You're not trying to do those types of things.
1130 01:45:36 --> 01:45:40 You're just simply looking for an exercise where you've taken entered.
1131 01:45:40 --> 01:45:45 Reach for the take reach for the trades. Objective and get out and be done when I
1132 01:45:45 --> 01:45:49 can find the balls to trade in front of you. I promise I'll come out here and do
1133 01:45:49 --> 01:45:52 it. I promise you when I know how to trade, when I know what the market's
1134 01:45:52 --> 01:45:56 going to do, I promise you I'm going to do it, folks, but you got to give me
1135 01:45:56 --> 01:45:59 chance to learn how to do I got to read all these fucking books. Got to watch
1136 01:45:59 --> 01:46:03 all these other live streamers learn how to do this stuff, fucking clowns. So
1137 01:46:03 --> 01:46:10 now, what do you do with the information? This is what you do. I'm
1138 01:46:11 --> 01:46:20 going to take these off because I want this chart to be clean. That would be a
1139 01:46:20 --> 01:46:31 primary example of just a first partial. Okay, one partial. If you go to the next
1140 01:46:31 --> 01:46:35 state, say you've been doing these examples or exercises every single day
1141 01:46:35 --> 01:46:39 for about two, three weeks, and you feel comfortable with it, you don't you don't
1142 01:46:39 --> 01:46:45 feel any anxiety. You don't feel any kind of nervousness, and you shouldn't
1143 01:46:45 --> 01:46:48 really, because, I mean, it's, it's demo number one, and you shouldn't be sharing
1144 01:46:48 --> 01:46:52 those results, not with me either. Don't share, don't email me your charts,
1145 01:46:52 --> 01:46:55 because I'm not going to open up your charts. I'm not going to open up your
1146 01:46:55 --> 01:46:58 videos. Okay, I don't know what you're sending, and it could be a virus. I
1147 01:46:58 --> 01:47:05 don't do those things. But the next stage of your testing and doing drills
1148 01:47:05 --> 01:47:10 is that you would look for above here, what was the next liquidity? That's this
1149 01:47:10 --> 01:47:16 one here. So this would be first partial and then this would be Terminus. That's
1150 01:47:16 --> 01:47:20 that's where you're going to grow into Caleb. You're going to look for a first
1151 01:47:20 --> 01:47:24 partial objective, and then you're going to look for a tournaments where you're
1152 01:47:24 --> 01:47:27 done and you don't need it to trade all the way up to that mid gap. You don't
1153 01:47:27 --> 01:47:32 need it to trade back to its old highs and attack these, these relative
1154 01:47:32 --> 01:47:41 equalize. We don't need that. We don't need to see any of that stuff. So if you
1155 01:47:41 --> 01:47:54 can frame the trade minimum, it's got to be able to move 20 handles. The range
1156 01:47:54 --> 01:47:59 has to afford you rather, I'm sorry I didn't say that, right? It's got to have
1157 01:47:59 --> 01:48:05 at least this much movement potential, where it can traverse from one price
1158 01:48:05 --> 01:48:09 point where you expect to get in to where you think it's going to reach for
1159 01:48:09 --> 01:48:14 and it need not even go to that target. It has to afford you this much range.
1160 01:48:14 --> 01:48:20 Now, we were down here, and I told you, try to hammer it with the market, market
1161 01:48:20 --> 01:48:24 order. You're not going to get this price, as I'm going to show you here.
1162 01:48:32 --> 01:48:35 Why you guys make a big deal. You'll never you'll never see him. Trick I've
1163 01:48:35 --> 01:48:39 traded in front of people live in live stream before. Okay, I don't know why
1164 01:48:39 --> 01:48:42 you guys pretend like I don't do it, don't do it every time I have live
1165 01:48:42 --> 01:48:47 stream, I'm not afraid to do it. It's just I'm not obligated to do it. And
1166 01:48:47 --> 01:48:50 what I'm teaching at the time hasn't been entries. This week we're doing
1167 01:48:50 --> 01:48:59 entries. So this candlesticks low, all right, look up here. It's this value,
1168 01:48:59 --> 01:49:10 right here. That is this candlestick low. That's 339.25 so 19,339.25 that's
1169 01:49:10 --> 01:49:16 the ideal entry you're trying to get at that price plus one tick. So that would
1170 01:49:16 --> 01:49:28 be 19,339.50 so zero. That would be your ideal entry. I'm off by one and a half
1171 01:49:28 --> 01:49:37 handles with my fill. Am I saying that right? Got I gotta check myself here.
1172 01:49:37 --> 01:49:43 Hold on, my actual fill was 342, I want to make sure I say anything incorrect,
1173 01:49:43 --> 01:49:47 because I'm giving you very specific rules, and it would be very upsetting to
1174 01:49:47 --> 01:49:51 me, because my obsessive compulsive disorder would start firing me. Keep
1175 01:49:51 --> 01:49:54 this down here so you can see, straighten up into that minor by side.
1176 01:49:55 --> 01:50:02 So I'm just like time travel. So 342, 342, Two minus three, three, 9.50
1177 01:50:11 --> 01:50:18 2.5 so two and a half handles, so that would be times $20 it's $50 in drawdown.
1178 01:50:20 --> 01:50:27 Okay, so the trade had $50 or not draw down the difference between the actual
1179 01:50:27 --> 01:50:34 fill in my target. The trade itself had basically no drawdown from the time of
1180 01:50:34 --> 01:50:39 entry. It literally was just hanging around and then took off. So how can we
1181 01:50:39 --> 01:50:43 test that? Like, how can we test the amount of drawdown that we were in? Let
1182 01:50:43 --> 01:50:46 me stay here long enough to see that minor buy side hit first.
1183 01:50:55 --> 01:51:04 You're learning Pat ready to lose your money. You Oh, you're about to be
1184 01:51:10 --> 01:51:21 come on. That song kiss me always comes to uh, sixpence None the Richer, and
1185 01:51:22 --> 01:51:29 Booyah. Who is your daddy, your damn right? Is Poppy ICT. You watching that?
1186 01:51:29 --> 01:51:33 You watching that? Over here on top step, I'm whooping his ass, guys, I'm
1187 01:51:33 --> 01:51:38 whooping his ass. So anyway, look at this from what we're trying to get in
1188 01:51:38 --> 01:51:53 at, right? There. Come on now, change that the green. So we kind of flesh this
1189 01:51:53 --> 01:51:59 out, so Caleb can get a feel for what I'm talking about. All right. So what
1190 01:51:59 --> 01:52:05 I'm essentially saying, here is, this is where I saw the price. Okay, I saw that
1191 01:52:05 --> 01:52:09 price. Let me stop. Let me stop for a second. Okay? Because I know right now
1192 01:52:09 --> 01:52:12 you're all giddy as shit. You're like, what the fuck it just happened? He did
1193 01:52:12 --> 01:52:15 it live. It worked exactly like that. It was perfect. Those are You're right.
1194 01:52:15 --> 01:52:20 It's every fucking time I want a ditty like this, okay, what you need to grow
1195 01:52:20 --> 01:52:26 into is doing it without that excitement. When it needs to be boring.
1196 01:52:26 --> 01:52:31 Focus on that. Because if we're if we're meeting every day and you have that
1197 01:52:31 --> 01:52:38 feeling of excitement, you're doing it wrong. You have to come in bored. It's
1198 01:52:38 --> 01:52:43 not a rave, it's not a dance party. None of that stuff should be going you're
1199 01:52:43 --> 01:52:46 brand new. You need it to be boring, so that way you can focus in on what it is
1200 01:52:46 --> 01:52:53 you're learning. Because if you go in with excited lot of fevered pitch
1201 01:52:53 --> 01:52:58 emotions, you can't think clearly, you won't be able to focus clearly, and
1202 01:52:58 --> 01:53:03 you're going to be reacting to things versus watching price deliver, and is it
1203 01:53:03 --> 01:53:07 giving you the feedback I'm going to cover in a second. But as I mentioned,
1204 01:53:07 --> 01:53:11 it's got to give you at least a 20 handle run of range potential. What does
1205 01:53:11 --> 01:53:19 that mean? That's when that candlestick closed here, the very next candle, when
1206 01:53:19 --> 01:53:23 it opened up right at that price, and it started to drop down. I told you that
1207 01:53:23 --> 01:53:30 you want to try to hammer it and buy at the market as it hits it, because you
1208 01:53:30 --> 01:53:36 want to feel every bit of the emotion. You want to feel that emotional jump, of
1209 01:53:36 --> 01:53:41 rush of adrenaline because it's going to hit you, even though it's demo, because
1210 01:53:41 --> 01:53:46 you're you're at that point, you're at the precipice of saying, Okay, I need to
1211 01:53:46 --> 01:53:50 see this work in my own hands. And you don't need to see it work in your own
1212 01:53:50 --> 01:53:53 hands when you first start. That's the whole point of this week is to put you
1213 01:53:53 --> 01:53:58 in front of the charts and doing these exercises. I'm literally going to pick
1214 01:53:58 --> 01:54:01 the wrong ones on purpose, because I want Caleb when he's watching them,
1215 01:54:02 --> 01:54:06 there's only sometimes he can see them. He has certain days off that will afford
1216 01:54:06 --> 01:54:10 him to watch it live. Today, he can't watch it live, so he's gotta watch this
1217 01:54:10 --> 01:54:16 recording after the fact. So I'm going to do the ones I know, but when he's
1218 01:54:16 --> 01:54:22 watching live, I'm going to, I'm going to ask him to look at this particular
1219 01:54:22 --> 01:54:27 fair value guy, and it may or may not be something that you agree with. That's
1220 01:54:27 --> 01:54:33 why I'm telling you. And I just remembered shit, especially now you all
1221 01:54:33 --> 01:54:37 love me now, right? I'm all I'm everybody's daddy. Now I was supposed to
1222 01:54:37 --> 01:54:42 start the live stream off with a warning, you are not just you're not to
1223 01:54:42 --> 01:54:46 take the trades that I'm doing. Okay, please don't do that. If you've already
1224 01:54:46 --> 01:54:51 sent me a comment, either on Twitter or left a comment in my community post or
1225 01:54:51 --> 01:54:59 my videos, you will be the biggest help to me. If you don't share that you just
1226 01:54:59 --> 01:55:03 made money. Okay? Because what that's going to do is going to get in my head,
1227 01:55:03 --> 01:55:07 and I'm going to worry about all of you over leveraging your account. I don't I
1228 01:55:07 --> 01:55:11 don't want that. I know my shit works. I don't need anybody else to confirm it
1229 01:55:11 --> 01:55:16 for me. But if you have a fuzzy Whoo, it feels great, and you're all high fiving,
1230 01:55:16 --> 01:55:19 leaning over to the person next to it, man who's had a tree, keep that to
1231 01:55:19 --> 01:55:22 yourself. Please. Keep it to yourself. Okay, I'm not out here trying to be a
1232 01:55:22 --> 01:55:25 signal service this week, but I completely forgot about it, and I
1233 01:55:25 --> 01:55:32 apologize again. That's the second error today for me. I should have started this
1234 01:55:32 --> 01:55:36 live stream off with, please don't take these trades and trade with your real
1235 01:55:36 --> 01:55:41 money or your fund accounts. Please don't do that. And I don't want to hear
1236 01:55:41 --> 01:55:44 the feedback. I don't want to hear that. I don't want to see it, I don't want to
1237 01:55:44 --> 01:55:48 read it. It's going to piss me off, and I promise you, I will block you. I will
1238 01:55:48 --> 01:55:51 never see another comment from you. You might think that it's something I want
1239 01:55:51 --> 01:55:54 to hear I don't want to see it, I don't want to read it. You're welcome to share
1240 01:55:54 --> 01:55:57 that with everybody else, but don't tag me on it. I don't want to see it. Okay?
1241 01:55:57 --> 01:56:01 So that way we understand the dichotomy and the the relationship boundaries
1242 01:56:01 --> 01:56:07 here. So now, with that out of the way, I apologize, but I really messed that up
1243 01:56:07 --> 01:56:15 today. The low is what I'm anchoring this 20 pip range, theoretically is what
1244 01:56:15 --> 01:56:22 that means. So if I'm aiming for these relative equal highs as a first partial
1245 01:56:22 --> 01:56:27 target, Caleb, that means, what I'm saying is is, this is where I want to
1246 01:56:27 --> 01:56:32 hold my faith in seeing the price reach up to. I believe that the market could
1247 01:56:32 --> 01:56:36 reach up to, to knock out the stocks that would be trailed lower on anyone
1248 01:56:36 --> 01:56:39 that's short. And I think I kind of explained that to you, and it should
1249 01:56:39 --> 01:56:42 have been understandable, but now you can see how they did, in fact, do that
1250 01:56:42 --> 01:56:48 very thing. So the buy side here is your initial draw from where you're trying to
1251 01:56:48 --> 01:56:54 get in at with that fair value gap. Let me take this away for a second, and
1252 01:56:54 --> 01:57:01 we'll take the execution off for a second. So from this candlesticks high,
1253 01:57:01 --> 01:57:05 and that candlestick right there is low. Can you see that? That's the That's a
1254 01:57:05 --> 01:57:12 fair value gap, but it's a buy side imbalance, sell side efficiency. So if
1255 01:57:12 --> 01:57:17 we think that it's going to go up here, and we have this one single candle all
1256 01:57:17 --> 01:57:23 by itself, it's sharing no space. Or, let me say it this way. This the space
1257 01:57:23 --> 01:57:26 between this candle is high and that candles low is not being shared in any
1258 01:57:26 --> 01:57:32 other candlestick after it's formed. And then on this candlestick it came down
1259 01:57:32 --> 01:57:39 and touched this candlesticks low, which is three, three, 9.25 the next candle to
1260 01:57:39 --> 01:57:46 the to write of it is, see every single time, every single time that candlestick
1261 01:57:46 --> 01:57:51 is the same price, three, three, 9.25 so that's why I just went in at the market,
1262 01:57:51 --> 01:57:56 because it would have been my fill one tick above that, which is what, three,
1263 01:57:56 --> 01:58:02 three, 9.50 but can you see that that fair value gap is there. Were you here
1264 01:58:02 --> 01:58:06 live when I was explaining it to you? Watch it, watching it for him. As soon
1265 01:58:06 --> 01:58:09 as you see this candlestick close, the next candlestick, as soon as it opens
1266 01:58:09 --> 01:58:15 up, my mind is immediate, bang. I'm watching that. I want to see that price
1267 01:58:15 --> 01:58:21 tick. Once it books that price and offers it to me, mark it in plus one
1268 01:58:21 --> 01:58:28 tick, obviously. So if it would have dropped down into the halfway point,
1269 01:58:29 --> 01:58:33 that makes this fair value gap. If it would have went down into the halfway
1270 01:58:33 --> 01:58:36 point level, I would say, hypothetically, this is where I would
1271 01:58:36 --> 01:58:39 add. But I can't do it because I'm giving examples. To kill the practice.
1272 01:58:39 --> 01:58:44 He cannot do more than one contract. He has to do at least two to three weeks of
1273 01:58:44 --> 01:58:48 doing this. And it's not about being right, son, I don't care that you take
1274 01:58:48 --> 01:58:53 losses. It's not about that. It's about seeing it in the chart and engaging with
1275 01:58:53 --> 01:58:58 it. Because everybody's losing trades in the beginning. Everybody's going to do
1276 01:58:58 --> 01:59:00 it wrong in the beginning, but the way you learn how to do it correctly is
1277 01:59:00 --> 01:59:04 this, this is it. Now, imagine how many pages it's going to take for me to do
1278 01:59:04 --> 01:59:10 what I just did today in a book can't be done. The fucking thing would be, it
1279 01:59:10 --> 01:59:14 would be huge, and I would never be satisfied with the delivery of how I
1280 01:59:14 --> 01:59:20 would have to explain it. I can put static charts into a book. I can give
1281 01:59:20 --> 01:59:26 you the details, but it's not the same as seeing it live, watching how fucking
1282 01:59:26 --> 01:59:32 precise it is. Tell me, okay, tell me. How many times have you been into a
1283 01:59:32 --> 01:59:38 trade using anything else, and you get in and it's drawing against you, drawing
1284 01:59:38 --> 01:59:41 against you. You're going and draw down, or it's just sitting around. It won't
1285 01:59:41 --> 01:59:45 move for you. It's just sitting around saying, I don't fucking trade like that.
1286 01:59:46 --> 01:59:50 I don't I don't trade like that. I don't want to be in trades like that. I want
1287 01:59:50 --> 01:59:55 to know when the market is likely to move. It needs to move, and it needs to
1288 01:59:55 --> 02:00:01 be on the basis of fucking time, days, time. Mr. And. Listen. You are in the
1289 02:00:01 --> 02:00:08 fucking matrix, and you're listening to fucking Neo what time? What time is that
1290 02:00:08 --> 02:00:16 candle? Oh shit, that's the 1050, 1110, macro. Holy shit. What did you say about
1291 02:00:16 --> 02:00:20 them? Macros? ICT, what did you say they're gonna do? What they're gonna run
1292 02:00:20 --> 02:00:27 for? Liquidity. Oh shit. What is that? Oh shit, what is that? That's somebody
1293 02:00:27 --> 02:00:30 that knows what the fuck is going on. That's somebody that knows the future.
1294 02:00:31 --> 02:00:35 That's the one with the authority. So sit your Raven ass down. So right here
1295 02:00:35 --> 02:00:43 we have a very, very low drawdown entry. That's perfect. Perfect. Absolutely
1296 02:00:43 --> 02:00:53 perfect. Over time, what you'll do is you'll see these gaps like this, and
1297 02:00:53 --> 02:00:58 then you'll look and see if the number one candle has a wick. This is extra
1298 02:00:58 --> 02:00:59 credit and no extra charge.
1299 02:01:00 --> 02:01:04 If this candlestick. I showed this to my my private mentorship students. This
1300 02:01:04 --> 02:01:09 morning, I was woken up on NASDAQ a long, short, long. I traded the Asian
1301 02:01:09 --> 02:01:12 session with them last night. I trade the london session with them. I trade
1302 02:01:12 --> 02:01:16 the New York session with them, and I just did this one too, honey. I know it
1303 02:01:16 --> 02:01:20 just looks like it's too good to be true. I know it just looks like that.
1304 02:01:20 --> 02:01:27 But I see red when I want to see red period, this wick right here. You want
1305 02:01:27 --> 02:01:31 to see arrogance, motherfuckers. I'm showing it to you. This wick right
1306 02:01:31 --> 02:01:36 there, there to there. I'm going to take the quadrants off. I want to see
1307 02:01:36 --> 02:01:41 somebody trade like this. I want to see some my trade like this. I want to see
1308 02:01:41 --> 02:01:46 it. I want to see next to zero drawdown. I want to see precision. I want to see
1309 02:01:46 --> 02:01:51 that shit. Oh bro. Shut up. Shut up, bro. Show me your after the fact. Shit.
1310 02:01:52 --> 02:01:56 Fuck all that. We're in a different year now, if your mentors are not coming out
1311 02:01:56 --> 02:01:59 here proven, did they know the algorithm, they can do this kind of
1312 02:01:59 --> 02:02:03 shit. Fire them. Fucking fire them. They're not worth your money, and they
1313 02:02:03 --> 02:02:08 sure it's fucking worth your fucking time. This wick right there, consequent
1314 02:02:08 --> 02:02:12 encroachment. You will learn over time trusting this Caleb, but you can't trust
1315 02:02:12 --> 02:02:16 it just the first few times that you see it. It needs to be months of it. You
1316 02:02:16 --> 02:02:20 won't need to place your stop loss below the number two candles low. You can use
1317 02:02:20 --> 02:02:24 one tick below the consequence on that wick right there, because it's a gap.
1318 02:02:25 --> 02:02:30 It's two layers of gaps, and it's already likely to only trade in the
1319 02:02:30 --> 02:02:34 upper half. And if we see it trade down here like that, and run up. If you
1320 02:02:34 --> 02:02:38 started your stop loss there, you can roll it just below there. And then as
1321 02:02:38 --> 02:02:44 you leave this high, then you can place your stop loss near the lower quadrant
1322 02:02:44 --> 02:02:51 of the fair value gap. And that's, that's this, okay? Now it's this. You
1323 02:02:51 --> 02:02:55 have to always grade your inefficiencies, okay? And by grading,
1324 02:02:55 --> 02:02:58 then you're, what you're doing is you're putting the lower quadrant, upper
1325 02:02:58 --> 02:03:03 quadrant in like that. Okay, so when you're bullish, the best, perfect
1326 02:03:03 --> 02:03:08 scenario is the market only drops in to the upper half of that gap, and it
1327 02:03:08 --> 02:03:12 leaves that lower half untouched. And that's indicating that it's extremely
1328 02:03:12 --> 02:03:15 bullish. You're on side. You don't need to be afraid of getting stopped out. You
1329 02:03:15 --> 02:03:18 don't even worry about your stop loss. It's there to do its job. What you're
1330 02:03:18 --> 02:03:23 doing is you're watching price action deliver? Does it take this short term
1331 02:03:23 --> 02:03:29 high? Yeah, it runs right to it opens. Does it overtake this wick quickly? Yep,
1332 02:03:29 --> 02:03:35 where's it drawn to the liquidity I told you to? And it rallies up and it
1333 02:03:35 --> 02:03:43 consolidates. It's consolidating where? Inside liquidity, inside the proximity
1334 02:03:43 --> 02:03:48 of where these minor buy stops were. That's buy side liquidity. It's
1335 02:03:48 --> 02:03:54 accumulating what new longs descended up into the minor buy side I gave you here,
1336 02:03:54 --> 02:04:04 and they had this little move here. Now I want to take you into a 15 second
1337 02:04:04 --> 02:04:14 chart here. Have you ever seen ICT take a trade lie? You never see ICT ever take
1338 02:04:14 --> 02:04:18 a trade live. You never see him explain this stuff. These guys a fraud. He is
1339 02:04:18 --> 02:04:24 such a fraud. This guy is such a fraud. Don't, ever, ever, ever listen to ICT.
1340 02:04:24 --> 02:04:29 Ever, don't ever do that. Alright, so here is the fill, right here. Where's
1341 02:04:30 --> 02:04:35 the little tick? Yeah, there it is. If you look real close, right, right where
1342 02:04:35 --> 02:04:39 I'm showing my cursor moving around, you'll see the little carrot thing pop
1343 02:04:39 --> 02:04:46 up right there. You see that that's my actual fill. So the market opened on
1344 02:04:46 --> 02:04:49 that candlestick and went down. I'm actually going to go into a one second
1345 02:04:49 --> 02:04:53 chart, one second ready.
1346 02:04:59 --> 02:05:05 Then. You having fun today? So many people. He ain't going to trade watch.
1347 02:05:05 --> 02:05:08 He's going to get sick. He's going to get the flu. Something's going to
1348 02:05:08 --> 02:05:12 happen. He's going to get laryngitis. He's going to lose his ability to speak,
1349 02:05:12 --> 02:05:19 his internet's going to go down. Well, shit, you got all kinds of things that
1350 02:05:19 --> 02:05:23 you're going to make. Us a conjecture was, what are you gonna say now? We're
1351 02:05:23 --> 02:05:26 gonna say now, bro, all right. So what we're doing is looking at that little,
1352 02:05:26 --> 02:05:32 tiny, little candlestick right there. You see that right there? So from that
1353 02:05:32 --> 02:05:36 entry on that candlestick right at we'll just call it the high that one. Okay,
1354 02:05:36 --> 02:05:40 this is the lowest tick right there. That price is,
1355 02:05:46 --> 02:06:00 340.25 so literally point seven, five or 1.75 less than two handles draw down in
1356 02:06:00 --> 02:06:06 seconds, in literally seconds of drawdown in terms of time. And then the
1357 02:06:06 --> 02:06:13 market starts delivering on my in my favor, so that you may not need to do
1358 02:06:13 --> 02:06:18 this much information, but I always did like I wanted to see exactly how much
1359 02:06:18 --> 02:06:25 time it took for my trades, because you don't trade like this, doing what
1360 02:06:25 --> 02:06:30 everybody else does. If you're doing what everybody else does, you're never
1361 02:06:30 --> 02:06:33 going to have these kind of results. You need to be doing things that are
1362 02:06:33 --> 02:06:38 extraordinary. That means journaling, that means logging all the data. How
1363 02:06:38 --> 02:06:42 much time did it take for you to move to profit? Well, we're, we're back on a one
1364 02:06:42 --> 02:06:50 minute chart. So in this candlestick here at 1109, so inside the macro of
1365 02:06:50 --> 02:06:53 1050, to 1110, there is no algorithm, right? That's everybody's gonna say
1366 02:06:53 --> 02:06:58 there's no algorithm. You're listening to them. The candlestick here, that's
1367 02:06:58 --> 02:07:06 one minute, 234, minutes. Goes to target bang, if you're going to do the drill
1368 02:07:06 --> 02:07:09 like this, and once you get because I'm not going to do this for weeks, it's
1369 02:07:09 --> 02:07:17 just this week when you're studying Caleb to do your final Terminus. And
1370 02:07:18 --> 02:07:21 you're, in other words, you're looking for two stages of exits, you're always
1371 02:07:21 --> 02:07:26 going to look for one easy objective to reach for that's your first partial. And
1372 02:07:26 --> 02:07:30 then where's your exit and you're done for the day that would be here. So how
1373 02:07:31 --> 02:07:35 long did it take to get to that? So you enter your candles count that as one. So
1374 02:07:35 --> 02:07:47 that's one minute, 23456789, and 10 minutes. 10 minutes. So for $40 worth of
1375 02:07:47 --> 02:07:53 heat or less, we'll call it 50 bucks if it was, say you're using amp global as
1376 02:07:53 --> 02:07:58 your broker. Okay, I'm not repping them, but I have experience with them, and I
1377 02:07:58 --> 02:08:03 don't, you know, I don't do funded account companies, but they charge with
1378 02:08:03 --> 02:08:07 fees per contract. It's $10 okay? You can argue and complain about whatever
1379 02:08:07 --> 02:08:11 that is in terms of what you think is affordable or not, but that's it. Is
1380 02:08:11 --> 02:08:17 what it is. So if you factor that in, it's $50 total expense to make. What was
1381 02:08:17 --> 02:08:25 it? 600 bucks or whatever? And you can see it's a paper trading account for the
1382 02:08:27 --> 02:08:31 compliance I'm not acting as a financial advisor. You. I'm not running a signal
1383 02:08:31 --> 02:08:35 service. I'm not claiming this was done with real money, but I'm showing you
1384 02:08:35 --> 02:08:39 with live data in front of everybody. I'm sure I'll probably have a pretty
1385 02:08:39 --> 02:08:43 sizable audience today, because they all want to come out and see me fail. This
1386 02:08:43 --> 02:08:51 is done with real, live price. It's nothing Market Replay and to only have
1387 02:08:51 --> 02:09:00 $50 total cost and drawdown to make $630 one way ticket, just like that. No heat,
1388 02:09:01 --> 02:09:05 none of that shit. Show me what your mentor can do, because I've been barking
1389 02:09:05 --> 02:09:08 for years and years and years, and they're still sitting on the fucking
1390 02:09:08 --> 02:09:14 porch. So 20 handles here, 20 handles that's enough to take that trade. You
1391 02:09:14 --> 02:09:17 can afford to take that trade, Caleb, because if your target's above that,
1392 02:09:17 --> 02:09:23 that's this is a really good setup, because it's literally almost twice as
1393 02:09:23 --> 02:09:27 much that you need in terms of the range. So where you're trying to get in
1394 02:09:27 --> 02:09:33 the trade and where you're hoping to get out as your first target, it has to at
1395 02:09:33 --> 02:09:36 least have this much room, okay? And 20 handles is what's what's being shown
1396 02:09:36 --> 02:09:44 here. So numerically, it'd be 19,003 60 to 19,000 to 340 that's 20 handles,
1397 02:09:45 --> 02:09:52 okay, or 80 ticks. So I don't, I don't think I need to do anything more today,
1398 02:09:52 --> 02:09:57 but we'll be back at it tomorrow. I I'm not going to be doing them long. Like
1399 02:09:57 --> 02:10:01 these sessions are going to be rather concise. Is because I don't want people
1400 02:10:01 --> 02:10:05 getting hopped up on goofballs wanting to have trade after trade after I know
1401 02:10:05 --> 02:10:09 you're not listening to me. You're going to take a trade and you're going to get
1402 02:10:09 --> 02:10:12 hurt this week if you do, I promise you, you are going to get hurt if you do it.
1403 02:10:13 --> 02:10:20 But today, this three of bone because I just want to twist the knife. I just
1404 02:10:20 --> 02:10:23 went twisting this is a little bit, and look them in their eyes and say, What
1405 02:10:23 --> 02:10:28 was that you were saying about what? Who's going to can't do what do this?
1406 02:10:28 --> 02:10:31 Don't talk about scribbling shit on charts and talking about this and
1407 02:10:31 --> 02:10:34 talking about that. Push a fucking button. Explain why it's going to do it
1408 02:10:34 --> 02:10:39 every individual candle. Make it so tight, very little drawdown, and let it
1409 02:10:39 --> 02:10:44 work in front of everybody. I didn't just learn this, folks. I didn't just
1410 02:10:44 --> 02:10:49 discover it. I've been doing this for a long, long time, and I can do this in
1411 02:10:49 --> 02:10:53 court. I can do this on TV. I can do this every fucking day, at any time I
1412 02:10:53 --> 02:10:57 want to do. I can do I can do that. And when you learn how to do it, I can't
1413 02:10:57 --> 02:11:01 wait to watch you. I cannot wait to watch you do it, because I know there's
1414 02:11:01 --> 02:11:06 an army of you now that got your asses all fired up today. And yes, that's a
1415 02:11:06 --> 02:11:10 tiny, little, tiny, little fluctuation of a move that's all. That's very
1416 02:11:10 --> 02:11:14 little. But I guarantee you, the people that's going to talk shit or has talk
1417 02:11:14 --> 02:11:18 shit, they'll never be able to duplicate that. They'll never be able to duplicate
1418 02:11:18 --> 02:11:22 that. They'll never explain to you why it's going to happen to the very minute
1419 02:11:22 --> 02:11:26 on the base I've already taught you the macro. It's going to do these things at
1420 02:11:26 --> 02:11:31 these times, these times, because there is an algorithm, whether you want to
1421 02:11:31 --> 02:11:36 believe it or not, it is there, it is delivering price. And it doesn't matter
1422 02:11:36 --> 02:11:39 how much buying and selling is going on, it's going to price to these levels,
1423 02:11:39 --> 02:11:44 because it's scripted to do so. And yes, there will be printed orders where there
1424 02:11:44 --> 02:11:47 was handshaking between a buyer and a seller. They come together. Wonderful.
1425 02:11:47 --> 02:11:50 There's a transaction. It's booked to mark the market, but that didn't make
1426 02:11:50 --> 02:11:54 price go there. It just recorded its time when it was there at that time.
1427 02:11:54 --> 02:11:59 That's why it's called Time and Sales, motherfucker. I'll talk to you, to Omar.
1428 02:11:59 --> 02:11:59 I
1429 02:12:05 --> 02:12:07 I try this anonymous, like crazy.
