What's up everyone? Alright, well here we are. Green Day Finally. Three red days in a row now. Finally bouncing back with a Green day.

25 000 on Alf. Fantastic action on it. Well, I say that, but it was actually kind of choppy. so I had.

I started a day with about nineteen thousand dollars of profit on it. Then I lost seven and then I made back the seven that I lost and got myself up about twenty eight thousand. And then I lost six thousand. It was up, maybe only like 22, 23 and then kind of work my way back to 25 and I'm just maybe 26 and then stopped at 25.

So kind of like, you know it's good. It's good, but not not incredible, but good. It's up 49 48 right now. 66 million shares of volume.

Great liquidity. No problem getting in and out of this one with pretty big share size, but you know it's a little past 10 30. So we're starting to get in a time of day where false breakouts are more likely choppiness starts to be a problem, so I don't want to overstay my welcome. I'm tempted to try to keep going all day long to try to.

Hey, if I could have a 50 60, 75, 000 day, that in one day would recover all of the losses from the last three days. Well, while that's true, what's also true is that typically as the day goes on, stocks get choppier, volume declines, liquidity decreases, and so it becomes harder and harder to have really good gains unless you have something that you know kind of just does surprise big move. But even yesterday when we had that on Moxc, it would pop up and then it would just retrace and then pop up and then retrace. That makes it really hard to position yourself because it's like, where when do I get in, where do I get in And anyway.

So I'm taking the 25 000 off the table here. Maybe I'm leaving some money on the table, but this is a good step in the right direction of recouping losses from the previous days. Um, you know I thank you guys for tuning in to the Red Day recaps. For the you know little piece of advice and encouragement you guys put in the comments, those mean a lot to me.

Uh, I, I'm I, I do these Red Day recaps. It's been my kind of my thing since I did start my small account challenge in 2017 with 583 dollars. I said every single day I'm going to do a recap now. There's been a couple days where I took a vacation or I was had to run out and was traveling and stuff like that.

I did a recap the next day. but for the most part, pretty much every single day over these last, well, 17, 18, 19, 20, 4 and a half years have been documented in a Youtube recap. Red Day is my the biggest red Day of my career. It's right here on Youtube.

The biggest green day of my career. It's right here on Youtube. Everyone's gonna make a recap of their biggest green day if they're into making Youtube recaps. But doing it on the red days are tough because um, you know you feel like, oh, this isn't a great reflection on me.

This makes me look stupid. I feel like an idiot. You know people are gonna say things about me. You know, whatever, you have those, you already feel badly about yourself now putting it out there.

But for me, um, it's been part of my goal to show you both sides of the coin. While it's wonderful to have green days, the red days are there. It's part of the reality of trading. Trading is hard and even for me.

I get myself sometimes into these kind of emotional, um, black holes where I just get so frustrated. I get fixated on not being red or recovering losses and it just it can start to spiral and snowball and it can get really bad and I share those with you. So those who have experienced it know that you're not alone in those feelings. Uh, even someone who's been doing this for a long time still has them.

It's uh, seems to go hand in hand with training to a certain extent. It does make it a a bit of a hard, a hard job. Uh, when I sometimes and I mentioned this yesterday. okay girl, get out of here.

Go look down. Oh My. God. Stressing me out.

I want to sometimes think about taking a vacation. Um, I you know I always am wondering how should I trade on vacation? Or should I just should. I just focus on being on vacation. And any day that the market's open and I don't trade feels like a losing day.

You know, I feel like I've missed something. I've lost something now. Maybe I would have lost money five days in a row if I had actually traded, but probably not. You know, probably probably not.

I've probably had a couple green days, but um, it's very hard to take a break from the market. I think most traders know that. it's just you get, you get hooked on it, You want to keep trading, you want to keep looking for opportunities. It's very gratifying to be trying to solve this puzzle and to solve it correctly.

Then when you have three red days in a row where you fail. Um, this is the first day where I finally had the gratification of solving the puzzle of the market correctly enough to walk away with some profit. Today, Finally for the first day since last Wednesday. And you know, today's Tuesday.

So it's been a stretch here of red days. I'm really glad to be back in the green. Yeah, I know I'm still red on. you know, the last three days.

Overall, today doesn't make it all back. Um, I'm not looking at how much I've lost. I don't want to focus on that kind of negative negativity. I don't want to focus on.

um, you know, oh man, I still have to make back x amount. I don't want to be in that mindset. I'd rather be in the mindset of, you know, hey, you just had a great 25 000 day. Let's lock it up and let's see if we can do it again Tomorrow Let's have.

Let's start to put a couple back-to-back green days together. And maybe tomorrow's only five thousand. Maybe it's ten thousand, but just a couple back-to-back green days together. And I can pretty much promise you that if I have a couple of green days here, well, let's say if I'm green the rest of the week, I'm gonna go into the weekend feeling really good.

Even if I haven't made back everything from the week before, I'll feel like I'm back on track. I am heading in the right direction. and so the confidence starts to return. So you know, mindset is a big part of, um, success and trading and that's a tough one for a lot of reasons.

But uh, as you guys know, starting next week, I'm sorry, not. next week in two weeks I'm going to be Um, I'm going to be beginning a small account challenge. A new small account challenge. So I'm going to do it for, um, the month of July.

That's the plan right now. and I'm going to start with 2500 bucks and students that are part of the Warrior Pro classes. You'll be able of course to watch over my shoulder as I'm trading in that account, so we'd love to have you guys join if you haven't, Um, checked it out already. Check out the classes and if you want to learn a little bit more about the challenge, you'll learn that.

um, being right here in the chat room, I'm talking about which broker I'm going to use, what my platform's going to be, which hotkeys I'm going to use. It's sort of breaking it all down so we're all on the same page before I start, which is going to be on Tuesday, July 6th. All right. So with that, I hope to see you guys, um, in the classes and I hope you hit the thumbs up on the recap today and I'll see everyone.

Uh, first thing tomorrow morning. All right, see you guys in the morning. All right everyone. So uh, finishing the day up uh 11 000 in my uh, retirement account, 13 000 in my main account which is so about 24 000 about 25 000 on the day.

My high was about 27 28 000 so I gave back a little off the top. Uh, my last loss was getting in right here for a second attempt through 12 on the first five minute candle to make a new high and then that has broken to the downside. this was kind of a choppy one to be honest. It's been really choppy today.

Some big red candles as you can see right now but also back here as well. So pre-market I had a trade on this on this one minute pull back right here and this was for the break of nine and it went up to a high of 9 27. It pulled back one minute micro pullback. gave another ad here for the squeeze up to 960, then up to 962.

pulls back pops back up. I got back in but it double tops here. Resistance is unable to break that level and then sells off going into the open. I added right at the open for the breakthrough 10 and I added 26 000 shares.

At about Uh nine it was 9, 7, 65 or something like that. It hits a high of 9.91 and I'm looking for the break through 10. it then drops down to 9.50 I stopped out for a 5 4 000 loss, then it rips back up. I got back in, then it drops a second time and I stopped out for a 3 000 loss.

So pre-market I had made about uh 19 000 and then at the open I lost 7 000 and then I made it back and I made it back on the break of Vwap. I first took a stab right here and I lost money on it. maybe two thousand dollars. I then took a second stab right here and this is the one that worked.

So on this squeeze here I ended up making about. well, I guess. Well, I don't know how much I made. I was down.

This account was down, um, at one point minus three thousand. So and then at its highest, it was up sixteen thousand. So about a nineteen thousand dollar swing from the low to the high. and then I gave back about four thousand off the top.

um, through sort of a couple of trades that were just a little too high, a breakup, false break of 12, and a couple others. So in any case, this was a this was a hot stock today for sure. It's up 41 on 55 million shares of volume. It's about 10 30 now, so we're kind of coming to the end of the first you know hour of regular trading and I've given back you know, 15 or whatever off the top today.

so it's definitely time for me to just say all right, Green Day: 25 000 on Alf. That's terrific. I'll take that and and come back tomorrow. Yeah, of course I had a red day.

um on Thursday, Friday, and Monday. One of the things that that I do that I I don't know most people probably don't do who are in my position. but I I do. Red day recaps of those big red days.

So I don't just like recap my green days. or I don't know, do like a weekly recap where I can just kind of brush over the red day. I pretty much do a recap every day whether it's green or red. And so the last three days were three red day recaps in a row.

And even though I didn't I haven't looked at the exact number of how much I lost in those three days. You know, I I know roughly that. you know I had three pretty good size red days. So having a 25 000 green day here today is great, but it only really makes back probably.

Well, everything I lost yesterday and then maybe half of what I lost on Friday, so I still have, you know, a bit more to kind of make back. I'm aware of that and that pushed me to trade this a little more aggressively uh, and a little longer into the day. which on the one hand did pay off because I probably I might not have gotten this trade here if I hadn't been. you know, kind of sticking around for something else to happen.

but then I also gave back a little off the top right here, so you know all's well, that ends well. 25 000 is a terrific day, but I need you know, three more days just like today to kind of get back to my high of month. The good news Is it's um, well, today's Tuesday. We still have two, four, six days, six trading days left in the month.

My daily average this year has been about twenty thousand dollars per day. So if I can be fortunate enough to have five of those days be green and maybe only one more red day, then I can probably finish the month pretty much back at at my high uh, which would be recouping the loss from you know, these last few days. But you know it. It'll depend on the market and ultimately where I finish the month.

You know it's just. it's just one month, it doesn't. It's not the end of the world if I don't finish the month at my highs, or if I even have a red month, it just doesn't make a huge difference at the end of the day. So I'm trying not to get too fixated on it.

And so for that reason, I'm not looking at my Trader View metrics right now. I will look at them later in the month, but I'm not looking at them right now because I know what they're going to show me. They're going to show me that I was up x amount and now I'm up only x amount or y amount right? So I don't really want to see how much to the number I actually need to make back. I'd rather just let it be kind of a you know, I know I need to make some back, but you know it's I'm on my way there so I'm You know I'm moving in the right direction.

I would love to see this break over 12. Alf has no upside resistance being a recent ipo stock, so you know it has been strong the last few days. I did struggle with it a few times on some of these days where it popped up and then pulled back, but you know today it is starting to to open up a bit more so whether or not we see multiple days of momentum. I'm not sure if it broke back through this pivot here of 1180.

then yeah, I would think we'd probably break 12, but I also thought it was going to break 12 right there on that move. So I've been wrong a couple times on this one. and although I may be leaving a little money on the table walking away right now, I'm also walking away with 25 000 in my pocket. While that doesn't seem like a lot compared to uh, you know, losing 37 000 last Thursday or whatever it was, um, you know, hey, 25 000 is a good chunk of change and that, um, definitely is a step in the right direction.

I just need to make two more steps. Just like it. So you know I trade at a level where I do take a lot of risk. So the winners are big, but the losers are big as well.

And if you can't handle the losers, then you know you're sizing too high. You've got to be able to take them both the winners and the losers. And I was saying yesterday how you know I tend to trade aggressively And trading aggressively is the reason I have days where I sometimes will make fifty thousand, seventy five or a hundred thousand dollars. Um, on the other hand, it's the same reason I'll have days where I lose 25 or 30 000.

So it's it's just part of the deal and I'm at a level where I can handle those losses. and I can handle three or four, or even five days in a row where I have those losses. knowing that I will be able to recover from them. Account size is is a factor.

I mean to be able to lose a hundred thousand dollars in your account and not because you know if you only have 125 in your account, you lose 100. Now your buying power has just dropped from potentially four hundred thousand five hundred thousand dollars to a hundred thousand. And for a stock like Alf that's not easy to borrow and is not marginable, you're You've now forced yourself to trade with smaller size while you try to rebuild, which is going to make the process take even longer. So there's a little bit of a issue there sometimes.

But in any case, um, good day Green day. Happy to see Alf still holding up at 47 gain right now looking like it wants to maybe make another attempt at 12, but it's a funny chart because it dropped hard then popped back up here. So it's kind of like in a little bit of an inverted head and shoulders pattern a little bit. I mean, you just have that obvious level in the 70s and in the 80s, but you know when you have a stock that has blue sky and no upside resistance, they can sometimes get going and they can be a bit irrationally strong and I think that this is that way.

I think that short sellers probably recognize that and be looking for the opportunity to short it for a move back down, but it may go higher before it reverses, so I don't know we'll see. But in any case, twenty five thousand dollars in the green taking it off the table. Let's trade another day and I'll be back at it first thing tomorrow morning.
