Thank you! Test us one, two three, what's going on team. it's Ricky with tackled Solutions I'm going to start sharing my screen so you guys could see exactly what it is that I'm looking at. but today it is February 14th and in four minutes, the CPI data report should be released and then the market should be uh, reacting. So I will um, be breaking down that CPI data report? What exactly went up? What exactly went down? But one of the things that we love to remind our Traders is again, the market will react to the CPI data report.

CPI data. If inflation comes in hotter or higher than expected, the market will react in a negative way. If the market or if the inflation report comes in lower than expected, the market should react in a positive way. As of right now, Market is a little bit more on the overbought side.

I would say in the grand scheme of things, right? So looking at the one hour time frame, looking at the four hour time frame, we're we're We've gone through a pretty decent rally. It's not extremely overbought, but we've been on a pretty consistent uptrend so it can go either way as of right now. I'm excited to see which way the market ends up going, but I just wanted to make sure that you're all reminded to reduce your position size if you cannot tolerate. Worst case scenario, that's the only thing that I really want to talk about.

You know, don't put yourself in an unfortunate situation. So there we go, All right. I'm just gonna post on Instagram that we are live I should be able to. How are you guys feeling about it? Feeling good? We got a handful of you guys here.

make sure you guys drop a thumbs up. Make sure that you guys subscribe if you guys haven't done so already. Okay, all right. so we got two minutes left until the Aecpi data report comes out.

Let's see which way we go. One of the last things uh, that I do want to make sure that you guys are all aware is what website is being used. Uh, to report the CPI data report. So just you guys all have access to it.

Um, it is Bls.gov so in case you guys get disconnected or whatever the case might be, it's going to be released here. Bls.gov forward slash CPI Okay, it's my first time watching you I Like the breakdown thinking of joining your live group of course Paul I Appreciate your time. Um, it looks like we just saw a nice little Gap up. so we do have our big discount so it's 150 off.

It's the second link in the description down below. So if you like what you see and yeah, we'd love to have you as a part of the Lpp team right? So you can watch me trade live every day. So all right, we have less than one minute left and one of the things that we'd love to say is make sure that you manage your position, size or forever hold your piece. So it's the luck.

Traders All right. See any moment now Market should be reacting. Wow. Insane move.

Here it goes. Inflation currently. Oh 6.4 percent. Not good, Not good.

So it did go down previously Pi uh previous API data report or current inflation rate Uh was 6.5 percent and we came in at 6.4 percent Market expectation was 6.2 percent. This is Not good. did we not talk about this? If inflation does not continue to go down as pretty as everyone expected? Wow, Wow, wow and look at that. What are we down right now? So it's actually not a crazy amount so it looks like it's testing.

Uh, 35 Because again, inflation still did go down, just not as much as we expected. Uh, what's core CPI at so and again I'm going to break this down in just a little bit. So if you're absolutely new to this and you're like what the heck was just reported I Don't get what 6.4 means? Um, trust me. I'm gonna break it down for you I want you to know exactly what it is that it means.

So increase 0.5 Where's Core CPI Okay, here it goes: 5.6 percent. see what wrap and it's correcting itself already pulling itself back. Okay, well based off that reporting, that was not good at all. And if that tell us, tells us anything again.

Market is now trying to react in a positive way I Do not see why. Um, do not copy me please? Um, and I'm telling you this, but although the market is reacting in a now, it's correct in itself, right? So we're right back down to um, previous lows and there it goes now: markets beginning to shift Direction This does not make sense because markets should be selling off I'm going to I'm going to buy light so I'm going to buy 500 shares I'm going to stay pretty light right now I'm not going to add more to it. whatever the case might be now markets up to two percent on the day 2.5 So really nice Gap up Um, it's nice to see it doesn't make sense to me. So yeah, so this is what I I would call more of a a bull trap.

So I'm gonna buy another 500 shares again. Just because I choose to do something does not mean that you need to. So this is about a seventeen thousand dollar position. There it goes.

Longs are printing I would be pretty careful. Ah, excuse me. Um, yeah. if if you think that this is good news, what was just reported, um and and yeah, Market could react in any way, right? Um, as we saw it, it sold.

So this is NASDAQ for those that are unaware. NASDAQ Originally sold off and now it pushed up and now it's kind of teeter-tottering around that break even area right? Um, this inflation report was not better than expected. It was not better than what was already factored in, right? Um, I I Do agree. Who cares if it makes you money? That is correct, but your focus should be locking in profits at these over bot levels, right? Because if not, then it doesn't make sense into another 500 shares.

Beautiful Other 500 shares. Okay, um and again, this is just 100. Um, my opinion and I'm and if I'm wrong I'm wrong, right? I'm just explaining to you my thought process right? That's why you guys are here. So the CPI data report was just released and it shows that month over month, right? We can see what the what the previous inflation rate was.

It was 6.5 The market had an expectation of 6.2 percent that was supposed to be reported and what was just reported was 6.4 So 6.4 percent is still lower than 6.5 But this is not good, right? Because if we only dropped 0.1 percent then what we've been talking about uh, remember I said I Don't know if this is going to happen in February but one thing that I started talking about is, you know, coming from 9.1 percent all the way down to our previous of 6.5 we were making steady progress. meaning that inflation was coming down pretty quick. Some people say that they're cooked numbers. Whatever the case might be.

I I'm not into uh, controversy right all? I'm saying is even the rate of decline from now 6.5 to now 6.4 we're beginning to really slow down. and one of the things that Jerome Powell said is that if inflation does begin to go back up right and this can happen as soon as March as soon as the next CPI data report when they're reporting for the month of February If inflation therefore begins to go up, the Federal Reserve can justify being more aggressive with future interest rate hikes more than what is already factored in. and I feel like this CPI data report is a step a stepping stone in being more aggressive with future interest. reacts because this is showing that inflation is not coming down as quickly as it was and that's all I've been talking about.

Where we've we've been experiencing inflation coming down very quickly, but now I don't think that we're going to have that same luxury that we've had before. It's something that I've talked to with my Learn Plan profit Group about. I made sure that they've been made very well aware of that. and then what this tells us is that so and then this is what core CPI is.

which. So core CPI is everything excluding food and energy. so it says all index. Um, so the index for all items less food and energy again I Don't know why they they word it so confusing Rose point four percent in January categories which increased in January include shelter.

Yeah, it just pretty much breaks down what's included in that breakdown. So it's very easy to read this. Everything that's being tracked with inflation is here on the left hand column right. So food and energy are included in overall inflations right.

So these are pretty much line items and what the CPI data report tells us is month over month Right from December to January Did food on average go up or down Did food at home go up or down? Did food away from home go up or down? Did energy go up or down? Did energy Commodities go up or down? It goes all the way down to Medical Care Services right? It's just tracking what goes up or down and then you know know by having everything that went up or down right. so we could see that out of all of this, there's only three line items right here. so we have three line items. Uh, it shows.

Fuel oil went down in the month of January. We have used cars and trucks went down in the month of January and then Medical Care Services went down in the month of January Beautiful. Push. Beautiful.

beautiful, Beautiful. I Think today is going to be an interesting day I Think that even this, this hasn't even really factored in what's to come? Um, today? I Think the CPI data report is a lot worse than than what's currently being factored. and I think it's because we're still in that pre-market session that the market is reacting the way that it is and again. Um, I'm just again and I say this time and time again.

I'm just saying that this is my opinion. but just like the previous unemployment report, right? Or we or we understood what was being reported even prior that unemployment report, right? Because we keep up with initial claims and we keep up with continuing claims. I Want to go down this line Adam to see you know what went up and what went down so it shows. Medical Care Services went down right.

So we have three line items that saw a decrease of inflation in the month of January Everything else saw an increase. So our biggest Um outlier that saw an increase was this one right? 6.7 if I'm not mistaken. I'm just looking at it right now and that's utility piped gas services. So utility piped gas services from December to January saw the biggest increase.

The reason I'm explaining this is I Just want you to understand how to read this. Um, and you go down the list right? So when you go to gasoline all types, you can see that this thing saw an increase of 2.4 right? We see energy Commodities saw an increase of 1.9 We have what is this? Energy Services Saw an increase of 2.1 We saw fuel oil saw a decrease of 1.2 Um, again, just very in point for you to understand how to read this. People make it very complicated to you know, like oh I don't really know what it is that this thing is reporting. It's very simple.

It's generally very, very simple. So there goes another beautiful push up we got QQQ And again, this is going to be the scary part because if we pull on back below the moving average, pull on back below the EMA Remember guys, we have this light down right? This would be a break of pattern if we break below the moving average and begin to make lower lows and lower highs. We now have a reason. This isn't like, oh, just on the technical side of things.

Even if you don't believe in technical analysis, right? there's a fundamental reason on why the market is selling off right now. and that's because of the current CPI data report that was just released. It is showing that inflation is not coming down as quickly as it was and it can be as soon as what as soon as next month that inflation can actually begin to go up. So let's see it.

So I think the market went up because they all shorted no I don't I don't think that that's the case at all. Uh, it happens Market needs time to determine its true Direction I don't I don't view it as oh no, you know they're trying to change the market Direction on Us. I'm I'm not into that controversial stuff, right? I'm not into conspiracies I Understand that sometimes one thing can report one way, the market reacts in another and I get that right. Which is why although I did take my initial position on Skq, some of you guys were like oh my God Ricky what are you doing Market's going up.

But again, if you understand this report right, it might not happen right away, but you need to understand what was just reported and that eventually the market true direction will show itself right. And that's why you know I Also wasn't putting myself in a very unfortunate position, right I wasn't scared of oh my God I'm buying so many shares of Skq I was only buying 500 at a time I Can tolerate that if you're part of my Lpp team. We talk about this all the time. Do not put yourself in a position in which you cannot tolerate so you put yourself in a healthy enough position for you to take it seriously.

but not so much that you become irrational or emotional, right? So Market goes up. Don't short. so Tom stock. That's going to be my reason to even short more.

so I'd love to even buy more just because you said that of Usq. So I think that's the most ridiculous thing that anyone can say that. Yeah, markets go up eventually. But what about all of 2022? What if the inflation rate does come in hotter than expected as soon as next month? What more kids go? That doesn't mean anything.

There's no context in that, there's There's no value in that. So just another reason on why I Would love to add more to my short position against the NASDAQ market. And again, it doesn't matter if the market is up, doesn't matter if the market is down. Um, there's always money to be made as long as you focus on one thing.

and that's Market Direction Okay, yeah, for those that are unaware, I'm buying asked goes up when the NASDAQ Market goes down and it goes up three times. So the NASDAQ market right is down 0.22 Right 0.20 That means that Sqq should be at 0.8 percent. And there it goes, Right. It's up point, eight percent pre-market session.

So all right, do you guys have any? So I really can't believe you call that conspiracy the market makers and their bills on the quality they provide and they get out of doing it's all public knowledge. Colin But my thing is like, why do you think that they're trading against you right? That's the part that sure of them. Be they're being market makers or they're being like you know, someone that has their own agenda right? Who cares, right? Do you really think that they're targeting you and your 500 shares right? Like do you think I think I'm that special right? I trade more than the with more money than the average person I'm I'm a drop of water in the ocean and I know that about myself, right? Why try to put myself as I'm like oh no, they're trying to Target my stop loss, right? They were just targeting me. No.

I'm not special, right? I'm not special. You're not special. It's it's It's not that serious, right? Just like you get to choose if the market goes. You know, if you want to go short on the market or long on the market, we all get a choice, right? We all get a choice.

You make that choice and whatever you choose to make right there, there's some risk behind that and you need to respect that. And yes, it is frustrating sometimes when the market reports something, but then it reacts another way. right? Um, nonetheless. eventually it's true.

Direction always identifies itself. That's that is what's most important. That is what's most important. So why is the market not down? The market is down.

Market is down point two seven percent so far. So this is NASDAQ This is Sqq so this is what I'm currently in right now. Um, as the market is going down. so this one goes up when the NASDAQ Market goes down.

Okay so we are showing signs of a slight resistance here right around 35.60 and again, one of the things that we love to remind are beginner Traders is you know if there is no signs of progress and your trade is about to take a turn, the idea of locking and profits are reducing your position size. It's just something to take into consideration. you don't have to. My job is just to make you aware of both the good and the bad, right? So there it goes.

and again, if this thing pulls on back because we're so lightly positioned into Sqq I Would love to buy more of Sqq and continue to short the market Ricky Market didn't open yet? Nope. Market doesn't open until 45 minutes from now. So I will be live streaming with our Lpp team and they will be able to capture you know our our morning trades. Um so again, if you're ready to join my team and to watch me trade live every day, it's a one-time payment lifetime access.

We're running our biggest sell and it's the second link in the description down below. so it's the only team that I work with on a closer basis. Uh, you don't have to focus or worry about conspiracy theories. You don't have to worry about the market being against you I Mean it's just it's real and raw trading every day.

Both green days and red days. That's what's caught within those sessions every single day. So if you want to learn more about that, if you're ready to join our team, that's that second link in the description down below. So there we go.

There's a binder and extended hours. Again, you just have to make sure that you turn on your extended hours to be able to trade pre-market word of the day conspiracy Theory I Like that. Oh man, here we go. Do you think the market will will be way down by the end of the day? Um, Quran Do I think that it would make sense for the market to sell off by the end of the day? Yes.

Do I think that that's what will happen? No right? Because I know many times and I I'm very open with my Lbb team. There are many times that specific reports come out. the market does react in a different way and this is why I said exactly what I said when I took my position. I know I could be wrong today, but I know what was reported and I know that the market should pull on back based off of that report.

But if there's enough buying pressure, If news outlets hype it up as hey, inflation is coming down right? there's there's Think about how you can title a headline to be either in your benefit or against you, right? If the market is going up or down, We see this happen all the time, and sure again, specific news outlets might have specific intentions. at the end of the day, it really doesn't matter, right? It's maybe the market won't sell off completely today. But what? What I want you to know is why I think that it should I Don't need you to agree with me I don't need you to copy me. but I want you to understand my why because I think it.

It's very clear on why it makes sense that it should. Inflation went from 6.5 to 6.4 The market had a factored in 6.2 so it didn't go as low as it did. and then on top of that, it's not coming down as quick as it was. so not even for this inflation report, but the ones to come right based off of what Jerome House said last week in his discussion in Washington D.C You also openly said right that he will raise rates more than what was already expected.

If inflation doesn't continue to go down like this is all screaming it's it's all like out there for you. It's not a secret, it's not that someone has an agenda and then the market Direction changes, it's It's very simple, right? Inflation is not coming down as quickly as before. Economic data such as unemployment reports are showing that the economy is stronger than before and if inflation begins to go back up, then that means that our economy should be able to take a hit if the inflation report continues to come in hotter than expected. So all right here it goes: Sqq pulling on back which means that QQQ is trying to push up.

Okay, so we were testing support at the moving average for Sqq. today is going to be so sketchy and one thing again Ben One thing that I want to comment on that is if I mean if you are uncertain if you are new to the market, if this is one of your first or few CPI data reports today is going to be a pretty interesting day. All I'm saying is there's also no reason for you to rush into this right I Want to look out for our beginner Traders There's no reason that you have to force an entry thinking that you have to pick a side, right? You don't. You don't have to pick a side.

You can stay cash or you can just have fun with it. And if you see that you like one specific side, don't over complicate it, right? You don't have to buy a thousand shares. You can buy one share and just test yourself, right? Test the waters. It's not about the money, it's about learning, right? And that's one thing that I want to remind you guys is sometimes you become so focused on taking it so serious right away.

and that's good that you're taking it serious. But taking it serious doesn't mean that you have to trade with serious money, right? You can trade with one share, but thirty five dollars, right? Or if you want to go long, put twenty five dollars into Tqs or just go into the actual QQQ and you can go long or short with the 300 share, right? I Want to remind you that you do not have to trade it aggressive if Market direction is choppy if it's uncertain If you're just like what the heck is going on, Remember you get to choose the conditions that you trade in. If markets are volatile, ask yourself: is now a riskier time to trade and if so, then respect it, right? Okay, maybe I'll trade with a little bit less money during a riskier time. It's kind of like common sense, right? It's not rocket science, so I just want to be that reminder for all of you guys.

as you're just getting started. or as you're someone that's a little bit nearer to this, you don't need to rush into it. You have nothing to prove to anyone but yourself. I Want you to be selfish I Want you to look out just for yourself? That's what we want here or you're looking out.

You're so selfish that you're looking out for your future self, but that you're focused on one thing and that's actually understanding the trades that you are taking regardless of what you make on it or not, right? So smash that like button. So Ricky continues to live stream with us. Yeah, I mean I Really do? There's a handful of you. We only have 700 likes so hopefully we can get that up.

Okay so Ricky will you be live at Market open? That is correct. Yeah! so for Lpp I'm going to close out this live stream.

uh in the next two minutes. So at 7am my time, right? you see this 6 58 in two minutes. I'm going to close out this live stream and then I'm gonna go and make it private just for our Lpp team. So so I just wanted to make sure that I could answer any last minute questions.

Uh, for the people that are joining us for free, you know we have a lot of people that have been asking us that are interested in Lpp. I just wanted to make sure that we answered any of their question. uh Ricky looks like not a clear Direction Seeing SQ formula pennant yep I mean I still see it to be in my favorite award trading above the moving average or trading above the EMA Is it aggressively making higher highs? No, not necessarily. But it's also not lacking and that's what I like about it.

So my position size right now is about a hundred and forty thousand dollars. so I'll show you just so you guys can see. So I've reduced it already a little bit. Uh, but yeah.

so 6 500 on the day I have about fifty four hundred dollars and my position size is right under 200 000 right now. Okay, so on the original on the secondary push I reduced my position size pretty quickly and then it pulled on back. We re-entered and then now, um, we're testing that same resistance. So and just so you guys can see, I'll show you Tqq I do not have a position in TQ I have one share which is my one lucky share that I talk about all the time.

and I guess it's just an inside joke if you're part of our Lpp team. So uh Ricky what is your opinion on AI Options trading I don't trade options and I I don't think AI is there for at least not, you know chat GPT I think it's just a trendy thing to talk about right now I Don't think it's actually too consistent, but you know, um, test it out right?

Uh, please don't forget to subscribe and turn on your post notifications I'd Love to keep you guys up to date and um again, if you have any specific questions on what exactly was reported today, remember it was a CPI data report CPI Came in at 6.4 with the market expectation of 6.2 Our previous inflation rate was 6.5 percent, so it did go down, but not as low as we expected. I Think that this is the first CPI data report that is leading to most likely a increase I Think that as soon as March and the report that is released in the month of March that we can see CPI or inflation rate actually begin to go up. So um, yeah, I'm going to leave it at that and I'll let you guys know, especially if you're part of Lpp.
