So how are we feeling today about the overall nasdaq market? What's going on team, it's ricky with taclip solutions, hope that you guys are all having a great start to the overall week wanted to break down one of my trades. Yesterday's video, i'm not too sure. If you guys follow me on youtube, but make sure that if you don't that you subscribe, i upload new videos every single day and yesterday the cpi data came out, we talked about you know the data was not good, but we were talking about peaking and is This the peak right with oil prices, with inflation with covid with supply chain issues, oil crisis, all factors that have contributed uh to raising inflation right. The feds are trying to tackle down inflation, that's already factored into the overall market.

So it's like how worse can things potentially get? Obviously, if something very unexpected happens, that is out of our control. So yesterday's video was talking about hey, get ready potentially for the nasdaq market. To begin to go up, i'm not going to pretend like i can tell the future. I knew that it was still too early right.

So even with today, uh tqqq is up 4.4 percent. On the day, i made a little bit over 4 700, but is it gon na hold up here? That's the question like one day is great for people that are traders like, maybe you and i, but for people that are investors i mean i have my investment positions. I'm not gon na sell them today right. So so, what's the deal with that and again, it's kind of like doing a self-evaluation of like what is your intention.

You can't be uh focused on the day-to-day activities that your intention is to invest in a company right. You need to understand that those fluctuations are gon na happen and, just you know, obsessing about those fluctuations. Every single day are going to be so much more counterproductive right. I'm just trying to look out for you.

I don't want you to put yourself in a bad mental state with that being said, the performance today that we saw the nice little push, i think, is amazing. It's a step in the right direction. It's not that things are getting better but they're simply not getting worse. Why is the market going out today because it's not just tech, but a lot of the other markets are going up today because of the overall market.

Looking forward to the q2 earnings right, i want to use american airlines as an example. It's actually dealt if i'm not mistaken, uh that actually reported solid earnings, but we actually uh got all these alerts during our live trading session and american airlines due to other airlines, reporting, positive earnings or better than expectation um, we saw a nice little gap up 10 Percent on the day - and you have to think about it - q1 was one of the worst quarters for 2022, really uh in quite a while. I don't. I don't think that a year like that has a q1 has ever been like that before for the past couple of years.

So the year we started off really bad. The good thing about that is we had horrible q1 earnings. The good thing about that is, we lower expectation, so by lowering expectation back then right for this upcoming quarter for q2. If we exceed expectation, then we get reactions like this.

It's not that all things are great and dandy for american airlines, i mean think about it. Right, i mean they're still in so much debt, especially with that coveted bill that was passed. I mean they're they're, still burning through money every single day, right, they're, still not at the same demand levels that they were before, but it's a step in the right direction. Right and the same thing when it comes down to tqqq, i want to congratulate everyone who you know was able to partake in the activity of getting into their positions.

At a low price point, i decided to lock in a portion of my profit, so forty seven hundred dollars on tqq i'm very grateful for it, but i don't wan na get too confident, and this is the whole purpose. On the whole reason, i'm making this video is my job here on youtube is not just to encourage you and to hype. You up like look you're doing an amazing job when the market's bullish, like it is today. Let's be honest, you know a little kid can make money right direction is in our favor.

What i want you to understand is ask yourself this difficult question: if things get worse and or if it pulls back a little bit before it continues to go up, will you be in the same mental state that you are right now and if not you know What can you do differently? I'm not just here to hype you up that the market's going to do great - and you know i mean you - can join any other group chat for that. I want to be realistic with you. I want to prepare you for worst case scenario, not because i want it to happen, but because, if it does, i just want you to be prepared mentally prepared understanding of what is going on and that you can tolerate it right. You always hear this.

You always hear us say put yourself in a position in which you can tolerate, so there's nothing wrong with being invested in whatever stocks you are now right. If i choose to invest in tqqq, there's nothing wrong with being invested in this, but i need to understand that it's going to take time and it's not going to be easy. There's going to be it's ups like today and there's going to be its downs, and i want to talk about this while we're up, because i don't want you to think that when we're down - and i speak about this - that you think i'm too hard on you - You get what i mean, so i just want you to understand where we are, things are not necessarily getting better they're, just not getting worse, and the overall market is looking forward to this q2 earnings. This is why the overall market is going up today.

I'm very grateful for it, but one thing that you also have to take into consideration is tqqq just based off of yesterday's performance, i'm not here to to rig the market. What i want you to make aware of or become aware of, were yesterday's patterns. We gapped up after the cpi report and what happened we sold right back off. We gave it all back right for those that did not lock in profits that must have been.

You know a hard pill to swallow. I'm not here to say that you're a perfect trader, i just want you to make informed decisions based off of how choppy the market is being. I just entered a position in sqq during today's live trading session. I took a couple bad trades, a couple good trades, a couple, bad trades.

I didn't lock in profit - that's great as i wanted to, but i know that i can chip away on the loss that i took right and that's what i'm excited to follow up with. So i'm in a position right now, the more that we go up, the more that i will add to it and then in today's uh second video, i'm gon na um disclose how much i'm up or how much i'm down. When it comes down to my sqqq position, i just want you to be aware of why. Why am i anticipating tqqq, to drop it's because it did that yesterday and it also did it during the pre-market session.

So it's recent that it's been performing that way, and i just want you to be aware why so you're not surprised if it does happen, it's not. Will it happen, it's not that it has to happen, but if it does, i want you to be aware. That's the whole reason that you're subscribed to my channel right uh.
