What's up everyone? All right? Well here we are A New Year all right now. Hope you guys are thinking about New Year New You I know I am I mean I got some goals I'm kind of thinking about for 2020 in terms of how I want trade, what I want to get better at and things like that I'm gonna make a separate video about my 2020 goals and plans. but for today to recap, you guys will see a kind of regular day. Nothing crazy.

Ended up finishing well Green in my small account right in my fake account. Not the best day. Ses was a tough one. He had to be quick on it cuz it was whipping around.

It was wild. I Know a lot of you guys were having problems with thinkorswim this morning. there was some server issues. They are something which is always frustrating, but you have to take it in stride because it's part of the deal.

I mean we're so reliant on technology, but when it doesn't work we, it's very easy for us to get incredibly frustrated and you just have to kind of accept it. You're powerless. There's nothing you can do when TD Ameritrade you know has issues I mean you could certainly look for other brokers and stuff like that, but on a very short-term basis you just kinda have to sit with it. So calm, cool and collected as always.

I Hope you guys enjoy the recap today. If you have not already checked out our New Year's Eve sales, you better get down there and do that. I'm gonna put the link right in the description and I hope you guys become members of the warrior trading family this year. Alright now I am going to put out a video I think tomorrow where I'll let you guys know what I However, ething finished for the small camp challenge from 500 to over 50,000 dollars.

I'm going to teach a short class on it early next week and I'll invite you guys to attend so and that's going to be I'll have a video coming up about that tomorrow. Alright, so stay tuned for that. I'll see you guys first thing tomorrow morning. What's up everyone? All right? Well here we are: First day of 2020 and I'm finishing today up two thousand, seven hundred, fifty nine dollars and fifty eight cents.

I'm still trading in the small account quote small account starting equity was at $53,000 this morning, which means I've got over three hundred thousand dollars in buying power. but I am NOT going to when I talk about this small account challenge I'll be talking about what I did in the month of December from December second or whatever it was until the 31st. so turning five hundred dollars into fifty three thousand in 17 days and anything that I make today and tomorrow happy with that a little extra profit that's great, that'll just go on to my totals for the month of January that you know and then I'm gonna start a new small account challenge next week. So why don't we just talk about today's recap separate from the small Account challenge stuff: I am working on importing my trades and putting together a class that I'll teach probably early next week on the month of December and this whole small account challenge and that will cap off.

That'll be the last video in the small Count Challenge series. So this morning leading Gapper Pu LM will do time frame here. Historical data: 9 Well, let's do Nine Twenty. So today's a day where I actually ended up giving back just about half my profits again.

I did it yesterday or I did it on Tuesday and I done it again today and leading Gap or Pu. LM Initially I was interested, but it didn't end up really doing much. I mean the built. The bulk of the move was pre market.

the bell rang, it sold off, starting to do a red to green move and I said I was interested if they could break over this 68 maybe 78 level but it couldn't so no trades on that. Next one down. SES You know this is stocke that it's It's tough because it's a former runner and does this a day over the course of three days where it went from a low of a dollar 71 to a high of 26 dollars. Pretty crazy, right? So over the last few months this was back in October we've had a few days where it pops up and starts to take off again and traders jump on it quickly remembering the potential that this stock had that it.

When it works, when it really opens up, it has the potential to make some pretty big moves. So anyways, you know I was looking at and I thought well over 1108 it has no resistance on the daily up to $16 So I took a few trades on it. My first trade was right here when the bell rang. Alright, so the bell rang and I jumped in at 10:50 looking for the break over this kind of pre market pivot here and then a break of 11.

Well it ended up ripping up to 11 49 and so in that trade I made $3,000 It was like right away $3,000 Boom I'm done. that was, you know, pretty impressive. I really was impressed with it. Let's look at this on like a 10-second chart just to kind of look at this in a little more detail.

All right. So this was the trade right here and you can see it's squeezed up here. It then dropped down. I actually thought that it was gonna halt going up and so this again is one of the challenges that I'm experiencing as a kind of trader.

Where I'm at is trying to trade these stocks in multiple accounts at the same time and kind of coming up short when I do. let me let me just log into my Lightspeed account here real quick. Let's see there we go. Yep, Okay, all right so I took in my life speed account you know I missed this good entry right? This was the the solid entry and then I jumped in up here at around 11.

Alright, well the stock squeezes up from 11 to 11 49. It doesn't hold that level. I'm holding through the pullback in my big account here. Let's see here we go.

So I ended up giving back. Basically, you know these like flatten each other out well actually a red net. So we have this squeeze up here to 1150. I don't end up being able to sell during that squeeze in the big account I sold in the small account.

then this drops and right here I end up stopping out. so I lose thirty seven hundred bucks. So now I'm like alright, well that's a that's a disappointing way to start them the morning right through here. I'm watching it, watching it, watching it.

I take this trade right here. only in the small account from 10 up to 10:40 I made only about a hundred bucks because it didn't hold that level and it came right back down. Alright, so that was kind of supporting. Then it starts to curl up again, right? Let's see right in here starts to open up right right here.

Alright so right here. I Got back in in my small count I Bought three thousand shares for the break of ten. it breaks ten dollars and rips pretty quickly to 10:47 and looks like it's gonna get halted. Then I added in my big account I added at 10:47 here for this rip up to 1080 and then I added for the break of eleven and this is what happened.

It hit a high of 11 12 and then dropped. now in my small account I actually was up a total of $5,000 because I added right here at 10:50 or yeah, 10 for the break of 10 squeeze up to 1050. it squeezed up to 1080 and I sold. All right.

so I'm out locked up my profit there and then I got back in right here I got back in here for the break over 11 and it did a false breakout and then flushed back down. And so this stock today ended up being hard to trade and I lost money on it and as you can see, pretty whippy starting at the open. again. here again through here and it's one of those ones that you want to think it has potential because it's been a former runner, but it's really just not.

It just wasn't easy to trade. it was very difficult, the spreads were big, it was whipping around 50 cents a dollar share, false breakouts and I on it. so you know, kind of disappointing. They're not the way I want to start the year, but it is what it is.

so so that's SCS MDG s This one was a gapper. as you can see right here it hit the hide a momentum scanner I jumped in as it broke over $2 it hit a high of 218 and then dropped back down. made only 156 dollars Arkon also on the gap scanner right here this one I jumped into as it was squeezing up over $3 I got in at 295 added at 315, it hit a high here on a red to green move of 329 and I made 900 bucks on it. It's pretty good.

Savva that was the last one that I traded. well actually I Yes, it was the last stock here in this order, but then I went back and took that last trade. So anyways, sava right here as it ripped up to 7:14 I got in on the red degree move the break of V whap at 690 it rips up to seven 705 710 I sell I take my profit I'm out of it, but only with a couple hundred dollars of profit I didn't make a lot on it and then I added back at 7:15 and then it flushed down here. as you can see his 670 and I ended up stopping out with a loss so that when I took this trade, this is about where I was I was I was up 3,800 and I took this trade and I was up only 27.

So I was like alright. well I didn't get back more than half my gains I can keep trading and then that's when I took that last trade on SES right here I was up 5,000 at right into this breakout and then I added right up here and I gave back about $2,300 or whatever it is. So stopped out there and I'm a little disappointed that I got chopped up on SES and on Sava. but you know again, this is just part of trading it.

We've had an amazing hot streak here. The last weeks have been terrific. We saw some great momentum and you know it's not. It's not super surprising that we're seeing things maybe a little slower right around the holiday season and things like that.

so I end to be hard on myself anytime. I have a day where I'm red, I'm just like you know I'm upset with myself and I feel like I over trade it and I should just walked away I should have seen the writing on the wall, etc etc. On the other hand, you know it's it's hypocritical because on a day like last week where I was down 2,800 I was in the red I kept training and I made $17,000 I finished the day up 15 grand. So you know that was a day where I did over trade we a little bit.

we were seeing initially some really terrible momentum and then things opened up and I ended up having a great day today that could have easily happened on SES I and it could have happened on Sava as well. So you know you have to just sort of be consistent there and remember to draw the lines in the sand of when you walk away. whether it's after three consecutive losses, whether it's after you lose a certain dollar amount, or if you give back a certain percentage of your gains. Whatever you said is those thresholds and then you just have to.

You know you just have to follow. you know the rules I Mean that's that's pretty much it. So you know it's it's just it's just part of part of being a traders. You know, learning to kind of know yourself, know what your triggers are, and then set rules around those triggers so you don't make big mistakes.

So anyways, a little bit of a disappointing first day of the year, but I'm not gonna sweat over it too much. just take it in stride like anything else and live to trade another day. so you know I'll be back at it tomorrow. Friday For the last few weeks, Fridays have been our wild-card day.

We've had some incredible Momentum Momentum stocks on Fridays so we'll see maybe if we get a gift from the market tomorrow. but if not, next week will be the first full week and you know I'm just gonna try to trade the market that we're in and you know if it is hot, ride that momentum. if it's slow, step back, take it easy and you know wait for things to pick up again and just kind of try to be really connected with the market. I'm gonna do as I said: a couple of videos here tomorrow.

I'm gonna have a video about what I'm gonna do for this small count challenge kind of capstone class the the final class of the series of the $500 challenge for the month of December so I'll post that video probably tomorrow. I'm also gonna post a video where I do 2019 Year in Review where I review all of my metrics for 2019 how much I made my profit loss ratios, my highlights and my kind of low points as well. and then I'll also sort of set the stage of what my plans are for 2020 in terms of account of growth and strategies and where I want to improve and everything else. So those videos will be coming soon, so make sure you guys stay tuned.

I'll be posting those on the YouTube channel and I will see you guys as always. First thing tomorrow morning and we'll finish up this week. hopefully with a nice watch list and a couple more green trades, you can see clearly how there was opportunity for profit today. but you know this account on the left side my Cmeg account.

I Trade aggressively I Get in I Get out I Get back in I Get back out I Get back in I Get back out and it works really well. This account is more buy-and-hold I'm trading this account on my other computer. so I rather than having to move my mouse away from the small account and go check on this one and risk losing something or whatever miss, you know, having an issue because of that, this computer is the small account. It's dialed into the small account.

the hotkeys are all tuned in and then this computer on the other side is the one I've used for the big account. So while this is more breakout training, this one has been more of buy-and-hold which you know I had a couple days in the month of December that were awesome. Of course we had amazing momentum so and holding things were going higher. but today, that and on Monday and Tuesday that really was not the case.

So that's kind of the challenge of trying to trade in multiple accounts and I'm not really sure why I even did it today because this isn't a small account, but I guess because generally I was net positive doing three accounts in the month of December I figured I would just kind of keep doing it until I start the new challenge. but I might have to rethink that a little bit. So anyways, that's final. I've got you know some time to think on that and you know, make a decision.

So that's it for me. I Hope you guys have a great day and I will see you first thing tomorrow morning. Hey did you know every morning? I Go live to stream a pre market watch list. Subscribe to the channel, press the alert button and you'll get the notifications.
