All right. So we're going to go over my trades for today: I took uh, only two trades today on HKD and both were small winners. This one had news out uh earlier this morning so uh let's The Newsroom here had a headline at 909 uh HKD Amtd digital uh first half 2023 financials achieved over 130 increase in net profit. That's pretty good.

Um and we got a little move on that so uh, that was my trade. The one that I'm looking at right now was lunr I saw it earlier I I knew noticed that some Traders had it on their watch list for a daily breakout which is valid I mean it was definitely valid. a little extended still off the nine moving average but was worth watching. Um so this morning you know I had the chart up on this monitor over here so it was a side chart and initially I saw it pop up right here to 44 and I was like oh here you go and then it drops down to 38 and I was like whoo yikes that is not fun.

it was on very light volume, then it comes back up again it goes to 46 and you know again I was like wow okay you know you're getting to move and then right back down to 40 and I was like yikes uh and then it came back up here and it went. and you know what? for those that stepped up to the plate it took some courage for you to do that. You get a reward of the win. I Didn't have the courage to take that, uh, trade and to press the buy button.

It seemed like there were a number of traders that got in around 44. I saw one. a person mentioned 2 000 shares along at 44. uh and then added as it squeezed up and you know, 2 000 shares.

10 points. That's twenty thousand dollar trade, so there was definitely money to be made on it. but I just didn't have the risk tolerance. Uh, you know and that's again.

that's part of being in Trader rehab after having a red week last week, right? So we were looking at some metrics here this morning. So after having a red week last week, I just needed to be green yesterday and I was green and today I'm green. So these are small green days. they're not, you know, I'm just not in a position where I can afford to take a tremendous amount of risk right now and I would have needed to be willing to potentially have, um, you know, possibly a two dollar a share loss on Lunr because with this level of volatility, it just would be hard not to potentially have that kind of loss right.

Getting in at 44, it could drop back down to 42. two points gone. I don't know what's going on my internet here, but um, in any case, so yeah. so great job on Lunar for those that traded it, Um, so I traded HKD which was a pre-market trade 909 news comes out and it goes here.

You can see from 8 10 all the way up to 880. that's not bad I got in a little on the high side. it first pops up and it pulls back and I was like so here. here's kind of my my workflow or whatever you want to call it my process.

So I see the news I pull up the level two. all right. So I pull up the level two and I see it at the time. kind of a big spread I was like I don't know and I look at the daily chart and I'm thinking oh this Stock's been so beaten up.

I mean it's off of its lows but you know just yesterday was the low so of all time so it's a big you know it's had a big pullback from uh, the crazy move that it had last year. For those that that recall, um so anyways you know goes from this all the way up here to 2500 a share and then back down. Earlier this year you had a nice move right there. so I was like I don't know if I'm Really Gonna expect too much out of this one I Sort of feel like it's overdone and even though the news sounds good, the price action is a little choppy.

Pops up to 860, drops back down to like 8 30. pulls back and then pops back up here to 860 and I was like okay, if it's able to get back up to 860, you know that's good. That's what I like to see. and so I press the buy button as it broke through 860.

all right. So I waited for 860 to break and we got that break of 860 and went up to 880 which is 20 cents a share I only captured about six cents a share I took 6 000 shares on my first trade, made five cents which is 300 bucks. Second trade I bought a thousand shares and made uh I guess another 100 bucks or so. but in any case I traded seven thousand shares total and made only four hundred dollars.

so it really wasn't a big winner. and then there was a seller at 880 30 000 shares on the on the ask I saw a block order go through for a full 29 000 shares and that seller didn't move. So that's when I realized that we had a hidden cell or an iceberg order and it tried to break but of course it couldn't. Big seller there and it came back down.

so um it even tried to come up again but couldn't break that level. So anyways that was um HKD Llap was the leading gapper this morning up 50 percent. a nice move early and I didn't sit down early enough. so I when I sat down it was like 7 15.

it was basically at the peak and I was like wow I missed that one. Uh so I missed it and it pulled back and that was the cleanest move of the whole day. I guess aside from Lunr but you know again, as I said on Lunr this one unfortunately, just um, you know, congrats to those that got a trade on it, but no doubt required a pretty serious risk tolerance that unfortunately after you know, a red week last week I just don't have right now, so that's okay. uh Green Day My my goal today was to come in to try to get green, not do anything crazy.

Mission accomplished. I'll be back at it first thing tomorrow morning. Reminder: As always, trading is risky. My results aren't typical and there's no guarantee you'll find success whether you trade and own your learn from me.

So make sure you take it slow and I'll see you guys back here first thing tomorrow morning.
