B All right, good morning everyone. Well, we've got about 40 minutes to the bell and uh, we're sitting here kind of looking at the Gap scans. so we've got Ctib as our leading gapper right now. Uh, Taop was continuation from yesterday, so maybe before I get into, uh, the breakdown of kind of the watch list for today, let's just take a look back at yesterday.

So Taop yesterday made a pretty big move from 8 to 12 and then up to 14.. And so I uh, yesterday finished the morning i'll go main screen here. I finished the morning up 31 000 and then I traded uh right here in the afternoon during our class, made a little bit on Taop and then lost everything I made and then another 10 grand. So finish the day up 19 000 yesterday.

Which is fine. You know 20 000 a day is my daily goal. Uh, if we look at my uh, my average gains for the month of, of, uh, February only six thousand dollars. But if we go back to January and include January, my average daily gain is 28 000..

So you know, at this point I'm actually thinking about sort of my daily goal and that it really is closer to twenty thousand. You know, days where I'm up ten thousand, I've been like, yeah, I've kind of. I've hit my ten thousand dollar daily goal, which is the number that I set at one point last year. Um, but yeah, um.

I I just kind of. um, I don't know. I I just sort of. I feel like I'm I keep any day.

I'm up ten thousand. I. I don't feel like that's quite where I, uh, where I'd like to be. So you know, twenty thousand.

I think. If I can maintain that daily average, I'm in really good shape. obviously. No question about it.

Uh, that would be a fantastic year. Last year I averaged around. um, let's see, it was like 20 000 a day the whole year. So this was last year.

Uh, 20 000 a day. So at 28 000 a day right now, I'm 33 higher than last year. So if I can keep that up, it's going to be a great year now. Maybe I won't keep it up.

That's okay, but that's kind of what I'm stretching for 20 000 a day. Certainly, some days will be better than others. So uh. anyway.

so yesterday I was up 30, gave back 10 off the top. And you know that That's a little bit of a bummer by the way. So under symbol, click on this right here. If you click on symbol, that's going to bring you over to the news.

So we did an update last night on the scanners just to make it a little easier for you guys to navigate. And by the way, those on Youtube and Facebook you can see um, this link right here if you come over to the website celebrating 750 000 subscribers on Youtube right here. which is awesome. But yeah.

so anyways, the news is still there. It's just now embedded into the symbol. uh, right here. so it's That was a suggestion from one of you guys.

Um, so thank you for that suggestion and we took it and and popped it in there. Uh, we had a couple others that we a couple other suggestions that we implemented it. These scanners are now running, uh, pre-market That was another suggestion. So the high day momentum scanners are starting pre-market and should run after hours as well, so those are running a little bit longer.

You can click on symbol right here, same just to pull up the news if you'd like. and there are a couple other small updates that you might not notice. But anyway, so yeah, so let's see Ctib. so I'll just move this over a little bit here like that and I'll move this over here like that.

All right. So if we have a stock that hits the momo scanner, I'll see it right here and my audio alert is turned on for it so I'll be able to. I should be able to jump on that fairly quickly. My filters are still fairly high in terms of minimum requirements, so something that's super super light volume probably won't pop up on those scanners, but one of you guys may mention it to me and I might take a look at it, so that's fine.

So anyways, Taop yeah, um, this one's pulled back a little bit. I don't think there'll be anything on that for us today. Ctib I've already traded actually a couple of times this morning I've kind of been spinning my wheels on it. We had I, I did get long.

Uh, right here. the break of volume weight, average price this was at seven A.m popped up to four. I had a nice trade from 350 360 up to four and then it goes up to 427. dips all the way back down here.

and we had a false breakout right there. And on that false breakout, I actually went red on the day by 12 1200 bucks. So got long for the first five minute candle to make a new high and flush back down. Got back in, uh, back over four I think it was right in this area and then got back in for the Abcd pattern.

On this Abcd pattern, I was actually holding all the way up to 425 from my initial entry at 393, but I was adding as it was going higher, I was looking for that big move that squeezed through 427. we didn't get it and I ended up stopping out for a small loss on it. As it sits right now, it's just kind of having a little bit of a tough time breaking out of these levels, so I'm just going to draw a couple of descending resistance lines. Let's see, we've got one right there, which it tapped once, twice, three times, four times.

But it did get above it and then possibly like that. So we're kind of coming into a little bit of resistance here. as you can see, So to be honest, so far today feels very bearish. It doesn't feel strong.

Our leading capper, you know, gapped up and then faded. It tried to pop up here on nice green volume, but then rejected hard hard reversal off those levels. So until it can break through, this area kind of right in here. I don't think I want to be trading it down here.

I mean, I might be wrong, we'll see, but I I don't think I'm wanting to trade it down here. Uh, back over here 440, then 452, you know. So daily chart on this. No, we do have absence of a clear news headline I don't see.

Yeah, I don't see a clear catalyst for this. It is a Chinese company and we do sometimes see Chinese momentum. The short interest on this. Um, let's see.

I can't imagine it's that high. It doesn't really register as being anything significant. So yeah. so Ctib leading gapper right now: 3.39 million share float already 15 million shares of volume? I'm up 500 bucks on it.

So whatever second leading gapper is Bbig this one. I traded on this initial spike. sort of. uh, always aggressive to do that.

but it started spiking up and I started buying it at the half dollar I tried to get in at five, it jumped without me. I added 550 and then I added it six and I added 650 and we got a high of 676.. So I made on that one 9217 bucks. but I did the same thing on Hoth and on Hoth I lost 3700.

So on Hoth I missed the entry at 250 and added it 291 for the break of three. And then it comes right back to 250. And I stopped out 9 000 shares and lost 30 cents or whatever. 40 cents.

So I'm net green between those two, but not, you know, not by a crazy amount. And then I made 200 on Ctib over here. So Bbig, the problem is Hoth Big rejection pops up. Rejects Ctib pops up, Rejects comes back down.

Now it's holding up a little bit here, but not super super. well. Uh, Bbig, it pops up and comes back down back below the volume weight. average price.

Dwsn it pops back up, comes back down so we are not seeing It seems like everything that pops up is fading back down today. Uh, that's not what I like to see and you know the fact is yesterday. uh, yesterday was my worst day in uh, over a week. It was.

Uh, I mean, you know I don't want to say it was a pathetic day, but uh, I was up only 19 000. the last previous day is 20, 41, 117, 76, 86 Only 19 000 yesterday. So that was technically my worst day in. you know, about a week.

And today right now, I'm up 5700 30 minutes to the bell, so I don't know. You know, I'm not sure if we're going to see anything that really opens up. It kind of seems like today's a kind of choppier, bearish day in the market. Of course, you know you have the large caps like Tesla rolling over hard yesterday.

Of course, Tesla being in the S P 500 hurts the S P 500, which is, you know, smooth move S P 500. Let's add a stock that's up 500. so when it drops, it draws down the whole average. but they did it.

Uh. So now you've got the S P 500. Uh, connected a bit to Tesla and oh hey, Tesla on track to make more from Bitcoin. So now Tesla's price action is tied to Bitcoin.

Wonderful. So Bitcoin has dropped. I guess. Ten thousand? Uh, off the high I think.

What's the current price? Bitcoin? current price? Forty six thousand? Forty eight thousand? Uh, versus the high of 57.. So you know that's a little annoying, but uh, it is what it is. and it's only relevant just because it doesn't make a huge difference when the market is just kind of grinding sideways, when it's just up a little bit. or it's just.

you know, down a little bit. That's not a big deal, but you know, when you have a bigger, a bigger drop that does that weighs on the market a little bit more in general And so we may be at a point here where the market's been a little top-heavy and we may see a little bit of pullback on the sort of overall market and that that will have maybe some impact if it's more than just you know, if it's if it's trading a little bit out of the range on this pullback. So anyways, um, and and yeah, so I so I didn't do a recap yesterday. I just, uh, we were teaching classes and so I figured I would do my recap essentially this morning of yesterday and I was also streaming some of these trades.

So yesterday the stocks I was trading Clsn, Rsva and Taop Clsn yesterday. We did have some nice action on it pre-market and then the bell rang. Or actually right before the bell rang, it dropped. I remember I tried to do that dip trade on it popped up and then it sold off.

so Clsn wasn't a big winner. Reto gave us a nice squeeze yesterday. right at the open it ripped from 320 up to 360.. So that was a gap and Go trade which I did trade.

I took that trade and then Rsva was my biggest winner yesterday with 18 000 of profit. This one is a special acquisition company and pre-market had gone from 19 or 16 up to 22. It pulled back and I was a little hesitant on it. I didn't I don't think I took any trades on it pre-market but when we got this break through the high, I did jump in that and we got squeezed from 22 up to 28..

First pullback did get bought up pretty nicely right there. Second pullback also got bought up. So those, um, those are my best trades. Rsva yesterday and taop I was up 4 000 on it trading it through this move right here.

But then I gave it back on this false break and I can show you on the one-minute chart it was. You know it was pretty nasty. So I bought for the break over 14 right here. and then the next candle drops to 12.50 Now I knew that it had some risk already before I took that trade because um, you know I could see that we had had this false breakout here.

We'd had this one here, we'd had this one here and so you know it's kind of stupid I guess. But I looked at it as it's holding this ascending level. The five minute looks like it's basing out and if it can break over 14, then 1425 1450 you know we might get another one of these big green candles. I was wrong.

So you win some, you lose some. and anyways, I I lost on that. So I I lost on I think 10 000 shares a dollar 50 a share and was down 15 000 on that trade which was what kind of uh you know ended my day. So right there I was up 34 000 before those trades, this or this was on Taop and then in this trade I gave it all back in one move and at that point I was tempted to try to.

I was like oh well, maybe I'll keep watching Taop, maybe that was a false break and then it does come back up and it it does rip through that level. But then I said, you know what, Be grateful for 19 000. I don't want to give back anymore because then I'm just going to get more upset. So let's just let's just shut it down.

So I shut everything down. and yeah, 31 000 34 000 is definitely better than 19. but 19 is great so took that off the table. I'm glad I did that and that gave me a little opportunity because you know, after five six green days in a row, you know you're on a little bit of a hot streak.

It's easy to get a little complacent and that's what I was kind of starting to worry about yesterday was you know, could I? I? I just I don't want to dig myself another 200 000 hole right? So you know. And that started on a day where I was up 30 grand and then you know. gave it back and then kept trading instead of just stopping. And so with that feeling yesterday of wanting to make back what I had just lost, I was like okay, let's shut this all down and let's this right now.

today is an opportunity for me to just try to strengthen that muscle of discipline. You have to exercise it and you have to practice it. And if you have a amazing hot streak where you're not feeling really the need to practice your discipline all that often because the market's just really hot, then you know when you are faced with that moment of you're down 10 000 on the day do I keep trading? You're not going to be in a place to make necessarily the right decision. So yeah, I have made back everything I lost.

Um, this is my P L here. Uh, on the year. So 967 000. made back everything from the 275 000 red day which dropped me down to 550 on the year and now I've recovered over four hundred thousand dollars off that pullback.

So I'm back to green on the month, green by like 100 grand or something like that. So gross profit. So this is where I sit right now on the year. A little bit of a roller coaster and I'm hoping that out of that big drop that I can continue to sort of maintain this streak right here.

which is. And now I've had a couple days in the streak that I wasn't really happy with. but I'm hoping that I can keep a little bit more of an even keel here for a little while. So you know I say that with 23 minutes to the bell and anything could happen and we know that and today may be a red day and that's fine.

If I go down five thousand dollars, it's fine. If I go down ten thousand, that's okay too. It's not okay. I guess I feel at this point to lose a hundred grand in one day.

So I just have to keep the losses small, not more honestly than my daily average. So if my daily average is 28 000, I don't want to lose more than 28 000 in one day. I don't want to lose more in one day than I can make in one average day. So at this point, 30 000 should be my walk away point.

If I'm down more than 28 30 at that point, throw in the towel, come back tomorrow. It's still a number I can easily recover in one good day. and it's better than digging the whole deep. You know I could have a day where I go down 10 grand on my first trade and then the market.

You know that was my first trade at 8, 30 in the morning or 9 a.m And then you know we have great opportunity between 10, 10, 30 and I finished the day green. So you know, keeping the first few trades, keeping the risk a little bit lower so I don't take 50 000 shares on my first trade and get blown out for a 30 000 loss is also probably a good idea, especially today since the market does feel a little bit colder. So all right, Well um yeah, I guess at this point um you know, 22 minutes to the bell Ctib? Still our leading gapper high of that candle was 409. those of you on Youtube? uh watching the uh morning show? Thank you guys for tuning in.

I would love for you to hit the subscribe button if you haven't already and hit the thumbs up. We're trying to get to 1 million subscribers on the channel this year, we just crossed over 750 000. Now we're at 784 000. So we've picked up uh, 34 000 subscribers just in the last, I don't know.

week and a half, or two weeks or whatever it's been, so that's fantastic. Thank you guys! Uh, but please hit that subscribe button and share this video with a couple of your friends you think might want to learn a little bit about trading. All right? So let's see so you can see this is starting to open up, but remember we have this these descending resistance lines that it's going to run into. As we get closer to the open we may see we may see a little bit more follow through.

So the high there is 409. that gives us room up to about 420. but we need to break through 420 with some gusto and get up to 427.. can it do that? Ctib? I don't know.

So watching here and it seems like it's dipping down again, you know, for me, I can leave an order at 420 so it's kind of ready to go, but it just doesn't seem like it wants to do it. Hang on one second. All right? Okay, so about 15 minutes to the bell. So like I said, this area continues to be.

You know, the place where we would want to see it break. We've got these descending resistance lines, but the fact is, you know, without a clear catalyst, I don't know. I'm not sure if this is going to be the one. Good morning Ted.

Ted's going to try his hand at trading this morning. Let's see what he can do. He's here to help us stay grounded. This is a day that I think we need it.

This might not be there right now. There is no indication that today's a day to go big. There's no indication of that. Ctib is choppy with no news.

The second leading gapper Dwsn is. you know, not that great. Bbig is not that great either. It's pulled back too much, so this seems like a day with a short bias.

Not that I have shares available to borrow in fact of any of these, but yeah, and then of course Tesla. But I'm not gonna get into that because that's that's too expensive. so I'm gonna leave that one alone. So yeah, I would say though.

uh, if this can break out of that channel to the upside, that's good. So what's our downside? Support? Let's see. um, Trendline, right? So we've got a couple of support lines, but they're on the lower side. It's not quite there yet.

So what was the load there? 83 now, so I guess you could have done a dip trade on that, but I don't know. we'll see hi. This current candle the open was 308. If you guys see anything that pops up with news, let me know.

I didn't see anything that hit at 9am. That was particularly interesting. Ctib also has this history of gapping and then selling off. Not that again, it couldn't necessarily squeeze a little bit, but it's got room up to 592.

But that history of gapping and selling off is not a deal. so you've got double top there at 409.. Thank you Susan! Appreciate that. Oh, so I'll take a starter there.

I want to see if it breaks through 10 because this is a flat top breakout. So there's Ctib at 10 over 415. I would add my thought on this. so adding there at 410.

My thought is that if we can get the squeeze up to 420 that then if we can break out of this range will be in good shape. So watch over 417 for 18 for an ad through 420 and then up to 425.. So there's 15, 16, 17. Nice 1819.

Look for the ad there's 20. yeah I mean it was 7 which isn't bad. The high there is 22. so you know that ends up being a a base hit trade.

Sizing down a little bit, it tapped that level of 422. I'd put my new order at 425. I think if I hadn't taken any off the table there and I was sitting here with still the full size, I'd kind of be like oh, it tapped that descending line. But because we knew that line was there, the opportunity was from 409 up to that line which in this case was 420.

So I'm going to delete this one because this seems to be the line that is in play and you know this may end up fading back down. but perhaps perhaps there's another opportunity. In any case, 2000 bucks is not bad. Hi that candle is 22 hi.

This one was 25 high. That one was 27. so we know our levels that are in play. but we'll see and then the dip would be back down here off the 80s.

About 12 minutes to the bow so showing you that today's a day to be light. on your toes, quick to pivot, I'm just holding small size on this right now. So here's the thing. We broke over 409 which was our breakout spot and now we're back below it.

We want to see it. get back above it. You generally. you know if you break below level like that, you want to get back above it pretty quick.

So there it's back above it. so that's good. So possible. Trades could be um 415 to 418, 422, add 425, then a move up towards 450.

let's see what it can do. So this is a little dip here. The high of that candle was 13. So there you go.

There's 15. So watching for an ad through 20.. So adding right there for the breakthrough 20 and my next ad will be 25.. it's right here at this level so I think it's going to break through it.

So adding right here into this breakout. Looking for a squeeze up into the 30s? I think we could get the break on this through this descending resistance line. Watch adding there 24 for the breakthrough. There's 27 now looking for 30.

29 is the next ad spot. So now we're breaking out of this descending resistance line which is fantastic. So adding at 28 there's there's 29. So looking for the move here up into the 30s? Not looking to sell this yet? I want, uh, I actually want to add for retest of 440..

So let's look for a quick dip and then an ad adding right there at 28.. So I want to catch that squeeze through 430. this looks like. I mean obviously it's the leading gapper, so it kind of looks like it's the one.

Watch the quick break over 430 and then squeeze up to 35. there's 29. there's 30 on the ask. Would have preferred a break right in that moment.

So let's see what this will do. I can add in this area watching did trade long at 27 added right there. So trying to catch this snap through 4 30 and then up to 4 35, 4 40.. Hi, this candle is uh, 30..

So let it dip down and then curl back up over 27 2728 is where I'll look to add for the breakthrough 430. we're up 78, which isn't too bad buying the dip at 23. there's 26, look for 28, adding a 28 there for the squeeze through 30, adding at 30 and then as we get that pop, I take a little off the table. At 31, reduce my size, it's a micro pull back on the 10 second chart high.

that candle is 30 32. so can this close through this level? Hi, this one's 40. we need to break over 440 and then 452 watching for dip trades. Cciv? I haven't looked at that one.

Yeah, well, I'm not that interested in that. Watching for dip trades high volume on the green candle is good. I don't know if we'll see continuation at the Open on this, but we might. It is our leading gapper, so we have that going for us.

Amc. No, I'm not interested in that one either. Not right here. Orders at 32.

So now looking for the squeeze up to 40 new order at 41.. as long as it holds these levels, I'll keep trading and adding for the break, the move higher watch over 35. added there 35. So just looking to scale up on this as it squeezes higher back of my target would be a break through 450.

It's definitely moving in the right direction. There's 37. There's 38 looking for an ad through 39. Height of that candle is 39..

So let's see if we get the breakthrough 439 and then over 440.. there's 36 37 adding at 34. Trying to buy this little dip for the breakthrough 440 and then looking for 445 and a test of 450.. So this is a one-minute pullback right here with a high of 39.

there's 37 looking for 38 39 and then through 40. volume increasing here as we get closer to this breakout spot is what we like to see. So this is good increasing volume. As the volume increases, the rate of change increases as well.

So watch there's 40. it's double topping there, taking some off the table and reducing my size. It's double topping against this level here of 40 and then the next levels 52. I'll look for another dip trade so I'll leave an order at 42.

only about three minutes to the bell, so at this point it's our leading gapper. doesn't have news. Risk is higher on it, but we'll see whether or not we get more opportunities. The higher volume is good.

We did break out of that descending resistance wedge. I wasn't sure we could, but we did. Made a little bit on that move as it dips down here into the open 30 cent dip. Could watch for a dip trade so the low there.

so adding 408. trying to do a dip off the low. Usually when I do a dip trade like this, I set my stop about the whole dollar. So I'm in a 409 average and looking for this back up to 415..

So there's 410 411. so trying to catch that kind of spring off the low volume weight. Average price is 3.95 so there's 13. There's 17, so it's popping up a little bit more.

I'm just going to stop at 10. it's not really bouncing as much as I thought it would. so sitting tight there with about 90 seconds 90 seconds to the bell. So the watch list today Ctib and then Hyade Momo scanners doesn't seem like a really bullish day, but a little bit of opportunity here and there.

and just try to be. Try to keep it tight so that's the game. Plan Those on Youtube Facebook Thank you guys for tuning in for the morning show. Watch list is Ctib, maybe Bbig if it comes back.

and high day mobile scanners as a reminder in case you didn't already know, day trading is risky. Most beginner traders lose money, so I would encourage you to trade in a simulator before you ever put real money on the line. Don't try to blindly follow me or anyone else. You've got to learn the strategy.

You've got to learn how to read momentum and how to perform technical analysis on these charts. All right. So Mark's going to open, bell's going to ring at 9 30 and we'll keep trading here when the bell rings.
