What's up everyone? All right? So we're going to jump right in the recap. I hope you guys enjoy it. Reminders: Always! Trading is risky. Most beginner traders lose money.

My results are not typical. We're going to go over the three stocks that I traded this morning. We had Alvr Sev and Llap. We got a little action, not an incredible day so I'll go over it.

I hope you guys enjoy it and I'll see you first thing tomorrow morning as always for the morning show. So hopefully you hit the thumbs up and you're subscribed to the channel and I'll see you first thing tomorrow morning. Enjoy the recap! Oh and by the way, during the recap for those that missed my Ted talk yesterday, I'm going to share with you and give you the link so you can go ahead and re-watch it so we have it as a recast restream so you can go re-watch the broadcast from yesterday. Alright, so make sure you check that out if you haven't already.

Alright, see you first thing tomorrow morning. Okay, so uh. recapping today's trades, I'm sitting at five thousand dollars. Five thousand? Uh, one dollar and twelve cents? Uh, which is which is good? Um, I was thinking about.

you know I was kind of rounding down to five thousand. Which is fine. Uh, yesterday I was at the grocery store. You know they.

I don't know if they do this at your grocery store, but you know they at the grocery stores around here. Um, it's always round up. Do you want to round up for um, you know, for for charity And my bill was, um, it was like a hundred ten dollars and ninety-eight cents And they're like, do you wanna round up It's like, you know, Normally I wouldn't but today then I'm feeling pretty generous. Let's do it.

Why don't you go ahead and round that up. And you know sometimes the way they say it, they're like you want. You know if your bill was a 101 dollars and 12 cents, they're like you want to round up because you know that's a solid 88 cents. I don't know.

And you know the way I dress, they look at me and they're like, i don't know. This guy might have to check his uh, his his uh, credit card. You know, balance before he commits to rounding up 98 cents. I don't know if he can swing it.

I you know I'm I'm not a fancy dresser. Uh, you know I don't wear the fanciest clothes. The problem For me, You know to get on a tangent at the very beginning of this recap. The problem for me is that you know, with so like when I was living up in Vermont, you know, going out in the woods and cutting down trees and stacking wood and owning a wood stove.

I mean all of that. Your clothes get dusty, They get dirty, you get little nicks in them and you know you. You get a Patagonia puffy jacket and on the second day you own it, it gets a rip and you put a little piece of duct tape on it and you know. So it.

I get it. like it to me. I can see how someone from the outside might see me walking by and be like that guy is just. you know, he's a regular guy.

probably might not be able to swing the the round up but I do. I always round up and I i always try to tip really generously so you know here's a five thousand dollar day. So if I went and got you know, a takeout or whatever and I got a couple burritos or something like that I'm gonna oh I'm gonna almost always give a 50 tip. Whatever it is because I feel like for me the extra 20 40 bucks doesn't is like it doesn't matter but you know what if I was on the other side there and I remember when I was pumping gas at the gas station, you know because at the gas station I worked at, uh I would I would pump the gas for the people and so I had.

You know the four pumps and so I'd be pumping gas for the people and everything and you know sometimes people would pay cash they'd like you keep the change and the change is like you know, 70 cents and you're like all right Thanks whatever. But every now and then a car from New Jersey or New York would come up, they'd give you a hundred dollar bill and you'd be like keep the change and you'd be like my god, that guy must be rich and you know, but you were grateful because when you're making eight dollars an hour, getting a 20 tip is Huge. That's three hours of work and you know it's it's off the books. So anyways, um so rounding down a little bit.

a five thousand dollar Green day? Uh but uh, five thousand, One hundred, uh one dollar and Twelve cents. So that's good. and I'm green on three out of three stocks. You know.

One of the things that I kind of felt today. I didn't feel like I really got in the zone at all. So like my first trade this morning was on Suv and I I took uh, 3 000 shares and I was like typically I would have added as it was squeezing higher and I was like you know what, just just don't just don't why it's a continuation setup, not a fresh breakout. It wasn't the obvious gapper, I just wasn't really sure so you know and this had squeezed up earlier and then in one of these candles I don't know.

I think it was like right here This is like where I got in at 7, 18, 720 and normally I would have added 750. It went to 770 and I took the profit. And you know, whatever, it's 1200 bucks. That's fine.

1300 bucks. Um, you know we got it. We got a decent trade on it, but I just you know for me that feels like a fairly small winner. It's not a huge, it's not a huge trade.

Um, oh and hey, Oscar on the um So mentioning uh, waiting for the email on the simulator. So I say you have the green um circle around your name. So did you just join yesterday? If you just joined yesterday and you're one of the new traders? Yes, so welcome. Thank you.

So what we're doing for the simulator is in your 14 day dropout period. So you've got a 14 day period where you can drop out of the class if you don't if you don't want to do it. But here's the thing on the simulator here. It's the end of the month, so I'm going to be paying.

I'm on the hook for your market data for the whole month of April and the whole month of May. and if you end up dropping out, that's going to cost me. Between the market data for that and the scanners, I'm out of pocket a decent amount of money. So what we said for people on the 14 day dropout is that once you're through that period, then you can get into using the simulator.

Or if you decide you want to just waive the 14 day dropout period and you want to go with it, then you can start using the simulator today. so just decide what you want to do. and again, we're trying to give you a really good chance just to be in the community for the next two weeks and see if you like it, but also trying to manage the cost on our side of providing that and making it happen so I hope you understand. Um so anyway, so uh and I I'm a big advocate of trading the simulator.

I I really think that it is the way to go. It's the right approach if you went and signed up for the simulator just as a individual user. you pay like 150 a month so it's a decent amount of money if you just went out and bought it we include that for you. but I mean we have to pay for it.

So uh. anyways. um so yeah, sev kind of choppy. got a couple trades on it or maybe it was just that one trade but um no.

I had a second trade on it and the second trade was um, right here in this candles it squeezed up. I tried it again and it popped up and reversed immediately and I lost. I I stopped out quick and I went with small size and I stopped out quick, but that wasn't a great trade. Now let's go look at Alvr.

So Alvr was our third fourth leading gapper. This one ended up being the one I made the most on, but it was a little bit of a close call. So my first trade on it. I took the break of seven dollars at the open right here long at uh, five 697, sold at 707 it was 6 000 shares made about 600 bucks.

That was the first trade. Um, then it rips up here and and this was pretty impressive. but I decided this is I'm you know, kind of laughing at myself. But so I decided on this one to buy it.

uh, right before the biggest red candle of the day. I have sometimes really good timing on that kind of stuff. So I was in this uh with six thousand shares at seven dollars and nineteen cents and then it drops all the way to 6.95 At that point I was only up around 1900 on the day and then just like that, I was down like 1800 and I added it. uh, 6.95 because I thought okay, well we're we've got a double bottom here against this last pullback.

so I can I can double bottom add off of this level and then we'll see if it comes back up. So I did the double bottom and it did, uh come back up for a second to 710 and then it flushed right here and did that. Now I kept adding so this was not my best display. I I I added again at 88 and it dropped to 75 and I had my hand on the control z like panic bailout on the bid button and at that point I had twenty thousand shares and my average was seven dollars and ten cents and I was like i don't know man I I'm down.

Let's see this was down about six thousand bucks. Unrealized and I was like oh god I should probably just bail but I was like i don't know and then and then just in a second it rips back up to 705 and in this candle it hits 720 right there 725 and I was like get out, get Out So I sold it right here I was like you're lucky, you are lucky that could have gone the other way. Be grateful. Well it ends up ripping here up to a halt level if I'd held the whole 20 000 shares.

but it wasn't a good trade I took. you know, I took too much risk on it. I kept adding, I kind of got frustrated and stubborn and then you know it ends up going into this halt. I I did a dip and rip on it.

uh right in this area I bought the dip at 65 it ends up going up only to 75 or 80 and then dropping more so that wasn't a very good trade. And then it came back up here again. but then it flushed hard and then it did it a second time and then it ripped through and I was like you know what? I just, I'm not feeling it. This thing is just too choppy.

I just I think I'm just gonna be done so I'm up three thousand bucks on it. It's really not that impressive for me and I'm just kind of like feeling I was like, you know what, maybe this one For whatever reason, it's just a little too choppy. I'm not in the zone on it and you know what? Be honest with yourself, Can I see the writing on the wall that I'm cruising for a potential big loss? And so then my last trade was Llap. and on Llap I kind of did the same thing I bought on this.

uh, initially for a dip and rip it. It squeezes all the way up here, it halts, I get in uh with I think 3 000 shares starter at 7.85 and then it dips all the way down to 734 and I I added so I brought my average down to 750 and then I got out right here when it came up to 760. and so I ended up making 500 bucks on that trade but ended up with 10 000 share position made five cents on it, you know, and I was like, you know what? dude, let's just be done. This is.

I'm not liking this kind of price action. you know, when the market's really hot and we were looking at some trades during the Ted Talk yesterday on acy from this was from last couple what two years ago or something? Um, I'll pull it up right now and we'll just we'll just go over it. why not? Um. So for those that might have missed uh from yesterday's Ted Talk so let's see Um and by the way, so I haven't checked to see where where we're at, but I had told everyone yesterday during the talk Um, and so this will be on Youtube so especially for those on Youtube that I have a goal of bringing on a minimum of 35 traders this month into our for the month ahead to the minimum enrollment and I need that so I can schedule out sessions with Ted and sessions with Jess and everything like that.

So I had said for people that Um are helping meet our minimum enrollment for the month ahead, we'll give you a little bit of a discount, which some of you guys probably already joined with a similar discount from one of the previous months. But anyway, so we had I think 23 uh traders that joined yesterday which left us still with like 11 or 12 seats open. So for those that are watching this later in the morning or afternoon on Youtube, you're welcome to check out the Ted Talk. I'll put a link down in the description.

I'll also put a link um, right up in the top corner of this video. I'll put it up there a link. So if you click on that link right there, that's a link to the video where I talked about the Ted talk and the seven beginner steps I would take if I was starting over. You can stream the replay, watch the replay, and then in the middle of the Ted talk, you'll see the link to become a Warrior Pro member and get a discount.

So anyways, check that out if you're interested. Um, and let's see. So I'm just going to mark that I got to remember to add that to the video when I upload it. Okay, so um, oh so where was Acy? All right, I gotta find this one now.

Um, I might have to. Uh, sorry I. I. So the reason I want to show you this particular video is because um, on Acy.

This was an interesting trade because it was a it was a trade or a stock that was very very volatile and I did go red on it several times. I went like kind of deep in the red on it. Um, but I ended up trading out of it. And when you have a stock that's really going kind of like bananas, That's the type where I'm gonna start to give them a little bit more room.

now. Llap and Alvr they were both going a little bananas. Um, and we call that you know, the banana squeeze. That's the.

That's the. setup. So when the stock is going bananas, it's going straight up. So that's the banana squeeze that we were getting on.

um acy And so let's look at this here. So on some something like this I may end up saying you know, All right I'm a little underwater on it, but I'm gonna. I'm gonna trade through it because this thing is so strong. Dips are probably gonna get bought up but you have to be careful with that because you can be wrong.

and if you're wrong then um, you know you can end up taking a loss. So so this is Um and I want to thank those who watch this recap on Youtube because I know we've got so many people that are truck drivers that are, uh, driving around this beautiful country and listening to this basically as a podcast. So thank you guys for tuning in and thank you for the work that you're doing, uh, delivering everything all around the country. I um, will say and I'll just show you real quick.

Hang on. So I have a, uh, I call it would call it an 18 wheeler myself. uh, it's it's scale but I I've spent quite a lot of time practicing, uh, backing this up to a loading dock and I feel that I could apply, um, all of my practice in this simulator to a actual real truck. I also pride myself in being pretty good with a clutch.

So uh, and I can double clutch. So I think that I might have what it takes, but I'm going to keep practicing and my next, um, you know, my next step is to maybe hook a trailer onto the back of one of my cars and just try to drive around backwards and see whether or not I can. Actually, you know, kind of. do it.

So I have. I have high hopes. Okay, so anyways, thank you to the truck drivers out there. Okay, so acy.

Uh, so on this one, this stock's up 184 in this example. So this is a live trading archive. So um, let's see. Walmart will pay a hundred thousand dollars for truck drivers.

That is a side hustle all right. So the high was about 8 18. it halted up and now this is the dip. So watch how much this thing dips.

So I have a starter there at 84. Okay now it's dropping to 56 to 40 to 36 to 32. So see, I'm down 1500 bucks on this trade right now, right? I mean this, this has dropped quite a bit. That's that's not a small pullback and now I add as it curls back up.

So on the 10 second chart you can see it's starting to curl back up. So now I've got 9 000 shares at 880. there's 805. I'm trying to take a little off the table and it dips back down to 780.

777. my average is 80. I'm holding 10 000 shares thousand now. Watch what happens when we come up so I unlock, unwind a bit of the position for small profits and I sell it the rest of it flat.

Basically a break even trade. I put a new order to buy at eight dollars and ten cents. so I'm looking for on this and I added right there, eight and then look at that, see how there was that seller at 18. As soon as I saw that I sold and I ended up being on the Ask at 8 15 and I sold the 6 000 shares.

But watch what happens when it breaks 8 18. 850, 865. All of a sudden it starts to rip and so if we fast forward this a little bit, you'll see on one of these trades that I end up buying it quite a bit higher. So right now for instance I'm owning, I load up on this at where is it going to be about 8.70 So here we go.

I'm stepping up to the plate 9 000 shares at 53. there's 70 on the ask 8.70 8.75 and I just start hammering that buy button. I'm like here we go, it's game time and I will definitely do that. When I see something strong that I think has big potential, I will hammer the buy button and so in this case I end up going all the way up to 18 000 shares.

But look at my cost basis, it's 865.. we've got 861 on the bid and there's some sellers. There's 853 on the bid. I'm down 2 000 bucks.

Now I add again, I'm up to 24 000 shares, 30 000 shares, and watch this. That's nine dollars on the Ask. So right now I have 30 000 shares of the stock. We've got Nine dollars on the ask, 897 on the bid.

So I'm up six thousand dollars open. P L Watch the break. Look at that. see that break.

Right now I'm up ten thousand dollars and this is the time to start taking a little off the table as it breaks through that level. So I take a little off the table puts me up about fifteen thousand and then it's going to pull back a little bit and and you know what I'm actually going to do. Um, I'm going to pause this for a second. I'm going to make.

I think I'm going to do a whole separate video. Um, analyzing this trade and just do that as a separate video. I think that they're that's going to be long enough and interesting enough that I could just do a separate video. So I'm going to continue that in a second.

Um, so Llap Anyways, ends up pulling back and that was my last trade. I just said, you know what, I don't want to push my luck, I just want to be grateful. Be Green for the love of God and just be done. It was too risky today, it was too choppy.

I just didn't feel like I was fully in the zone. So I say, you know what? let's just let's go easy. And you know the thing is, none of them were strong enough. like acy that I felt like I could take the risk of holding through like a really big draw down Because you know that's the problem is you hold through a really big draw down like that and if if it ends up failing, you can get smoked so I'm more likely to be comfortable holding through a draw down if the stock is already shown amazing range.

It's the most obvious stock today, because those are the ones that can continue to be irrationally strong. But having said that, we've seen llap this squeeze to eight back to six. What did we see the other day on Cvm We saw in Cvm? This? I mean, it's like a V-shape Um, it went from. Where is it? Um, right here.

You know that's a that's not a really pretty chart pattern. Um, I'm gonna grab a screenshot of that to add to the warrior pro classes. You know this is. this is really tricky stuff because here's the problem.

You don't really have a good pullback on the long side and then on the short side. you don't really have a good pop to balance your risk against. It's just straight up and then straight down. That's difficult stuff to trade.

I would definitely prefer things that are a little bit slower in their in their move. so you get an actual spot where you can manage risk and buy at the same time. I recognize, um, then straight down. I recognize that you know that's not always going to happen.

and even on this, there were certainly one minute micro pullbacks and there was a pullback right there at four, but it just feels it always feels a little discouraging when you see one go up that much and then retrace and Scv that held up a little bit better. But then yeah, Llap is another one. same same story, you know, kind of kind of like straight up and then right back down. Um, I just, I don't.

I don't love that setup. So yeah, something to be a little mindful of there. But anyway, so Llap straight up and back down. So save those for the classes.

But yeah, so that's my that's my day this morning. Um, I didn't trade as well as I could have, but I got green and I'm gonna be grateful for that and shut it down and live to trade another day. And I just always want to try to encourage you guys to trade less. Get in, get out, get in, get out.

And one of the things that's tough is that as a beginner trader and we were talking about this. and I've been talking about this with Ted a lot. As a beginner trader, you know, Oscar, you're you're at the very beginning. Uh, some of you, some of you guys also in here who joined yesterday at the very beginning.

So at the very beginning, you want to trade a lot in the simulator. Why? Because you need experience, you need to gain experience. You need to practice. You need to get really good at reading the level two, and that's not going to happen if you're trading just once a day.

So as a beginner, part of working really, really hard to learn how to trade is spending as many hours as you can afford each day depending on what your schedule is, Watching Level two, actively practicing in the simulator, and you'll see that there's traders in this community. They're here from seven in the morning, trading pre-market all the way to four or five o'clock after hours because they're just trying to get as much screen time in as they can. Props to you guys, you're digging deep. That's work ethic.

and like I've said a million times, no one has ever become a successful trader without working hard. There are no shortcuts, so you're doing the right thing. But then comes the time when you have to flip the switch and trade with real money. And so what you'll notice is that a lot of the traders who have the big badges, a million dollar badge, 100k badge, whatever.

Those are traders who come in, they trade and then they're out. That's it. They're in there out. They're disciplined about that.

And one of the things we did as part of our trader rehab program was we tried to get everyone focused on one trade a day, one trade and that's it. If it's a red trade, good fine. Just let it be if it's a green trade. fine, right? Just one entry, one exit and build some consistency on that.

If at the end of 10 days or two weeks of trading, you only had four winners. Well that tells us your accuracy is 40. You need to go back to the simulator and try to get better at actively trading because you're just. your accuracy isn't there.

But if your accuracy was good then that's great. If your profit loss ratio was bad, one of the three trades was a huge loss and so in those 10 days you're negative then that's an area for improvement. Try to tighten up the the risk, but that's what you want to start with. I mean I'm a big advocate of that practice in the simulator, get a lot of practice, a lot of screen time, and then when you start trading with real money trade once a day, trade with as as as little as possible and so that's the time where you're going to have to say all right I need to focus on you know, trading and being here in the market from whatever it is 8, 30 till 10 a.m and then for the rest of the day I have to do something else now for the rest of the day.

If you're disciplined, you could flip the switch and go back to the simulator so you're continuing to get screen time. That's okay, some people can't do that though. Some people can't go back and forth between Sim and real money because they get Fomo and then they go back in with real money. So that's something you have to be careful of.

But if you can do it, then you know I think that that's um, that. That's definitely the the right attitude. So you know, if you can, you should, you should try to. All right? So anyways, I I just wanted to kind of say that here.

Um, you know something that I was thinking about a little bit and um, so hopefully that's helpful for you. Um, yeah, and so I'll leave it at that. So those um, who are watching the recap on youtube, I'll put the link right up here to check out the seven beginner steps that I would take if I was starting over for Trader Uh, today. That was the Ted talk that I taught just yesterday.

You can click on that link and there's a link on that page where you can watch the replay. If you tried to register and you didn't get the email, you can always go there again. We did send out emails to everyone, so check your spam filters and stuff, but you can always just click right there and then it'll pass you right through to watch the video right now so you can watch the replay of yesterday's Ted talk. Okay, so that's it for me and a reminder.

As always, trading is risky. Take it slow. My results are not typical. We don't track the typical result of our traders, so we're not going to say that you are definitely going to be successful.

We aren't going to say you have any, uh, likelihood of being successful more than another trader out there. So please take it slow. train the simulator before you put real money on the line. I'll see you guys back here first thing tomorrow morning.
