What's up everyone? All right. So here we are back from the long weekend and starting Monday or starting Tuesday with a small win of $537 today. A lot of profit, but Green is good. I was up 600 on Friday and now 500 again today.

so you know it's kind of like right now I wrote on my calendar for both where's my calendar both today and Friday Choppy so you know I wrote how much I made and I said choppy cuz it felt happy Friday I went into the red and I finished the day in the green which was always feels like a victory today. I was down twelve hundred dollars and then I'm finishing the day in the green. So again that feels like a victory. Making back like 1,800 bucks is is awesome so you know Right now though we have to be careful.

the the caution flag so to speak is out. The markets are choppy I Was really hoping to finish May with some big wins I was already up 75 thousand dollars in the first two weeks and now last week I was breakeven and this week you know, 500 bucks. Whatever. a hundred thousand dollars is just, it's out of reach.

I've only got two days left in the month so I still kind of would like to get above 85 thousand. It would make it my second best month of all time. and I'm at 77 thousand right now. So I've got a little ways to go I need two really good days or maybe one really good trade to get me there so we'll see we can do.

But anyways, let's break down today's trades in today's midday market recap. All right everyone. so bring down the trades from today: another green day. This is the one two, three, fourth green day in a row.

but a day where I would say it was a little bit choppy, finishing up $537 and just like Friday I went into the red before getting myself back out of the hole and then finishing green. So any day that I start in the red, I immediately have to shift my game plan from being aggressive and trying to swing for the fences to just salvaging the day. And if I can finish green then that's awesome. So today the goal, you know very quickly changed from trying to make $1,000 to just getting out of the hole and you can see on my very first trade on BGI I went down $729 So I'm BGI this one hit our scanners and at today's a day where we actually didn't have anything on the watchlist from the Gap scanner, there was nothing that was gapping up that really looked good this morning.

so that's fine, that's sometimes the way it is. There wasn't a lot that looked good. So the game plan then is to wait for a stock to hit the high a day momentum scanner because it's showing us right now that it's moving up with volume. And so BG I was the first one that hit The scanner at a dollar 89 showing a 10 million chair flow and 138 thousand shares of volume, but very high volume relative to what's normal for it.

So I pull up BGI and I see Alright, it was a little bit of a gapper and I see it squeezing up, but I'm just not totally sure about where I want to get in it. It kind of just surges right up to 2:14 and then pulls back for a second and it kind of surges up to 225 and then pulls back for a second, taps to 27 and then this is where it did the first one minute micro pullback and so this is where I decided to take a stab, has it curled back up here I jumped in over to 20 anticipating a retest, a high, a day, and a break of this one-minute break out. one minute micro pull back. so I added it to onee to 22 to 21 to 25 and then again at 2:30 It popped at 2:30 up to 2:35 and then dropped right down and so I tried to sell half of my 12,000 share position break-even at well, breakeven to that last ad at 2:30 I filled 4,000 shares and then I kept trying to sell by putting my shares on the ask.

So I tried to sell more 224 and then I ended up selling the rest of 210 for a $729 loss. So the potential of this one if it had worked I would have been to sell around 250 and that would have been like a $2,500 winner. So $2,500 to potential profit versus 700 of risk. that's a good profit loss ratio and I'm ok with that.

but you know today's a day where it just didn't really work and so this one ended up coming all the way back down and I ended up buying it pretty much near the highs but you just never know and so this one didn't work. Next one was CHC I on this one again. you know it was on the scanners a little bit earlier and people were mentioning it around 4:10 but I didn't feel confident to take the trade at that level. I felt like I need to pull back more on the daily.

The daily chart was ok, but I really wanted to see more consolidation. but then once it started to take off, I was like alright. well clearly it's strong I guess I'll just try to, you know, jump on the momentum and see what we can do with it. So I finally ended up taking a trade at 10:00 at 9:59 buying at 54.

So what I did is I waited for this one-minute sorry for this five minutes setup to pull back on the 5 minute timeframe and then the first 5-minute candle to make a new high. That was my entry point. So I jumped in this for the break of 260, anticipating it by entering at 254 and then adding it to 66 and then it promptly dropped back down and I stopped out for a 492 dollar loss. So with that I was down 1200 on the day and I was like alright, you know what? I'm just not sure that you know I'm gonna see good.

You know good opportunities today. I think I'm done for the day and I was like I'm done. That's what I said I was I'm done for the day at the time Co DX was halted but I didn't really have a lot of confidence in it because we'd seen a couple other stocks this morning like Bo SC that popped up and then faded. Bo SC very weak Na KD popped up and faded and then of course BG I and CH CI So I just sort of thought, you know today we're not seeing good follow-through I better just you know, cut my losses and be done for the day.

Twelve hundred dollars in the red isn't that bad, you know for me. So anyway, co DX is halted I'm not thinking a lot of it, but it resumes from the halt and immediately squeezes up to 280. It pulls back for a second, taps to 90 and then taps $3 and so that's when I was like, you know what? I'm gonna take a stab at this So I started adding at 287 296 and $3 Looking for that break over $3 I ended up having a total of nine thousand shares, eighty-five hundred shares. So I'm adding anticipating the break of $3 which is the psychological resistance point.

But when stocks break them, they often make big pushes and so this squeezed up to a high of 324 and I sold 300 or 3,000 shares at 321, some more at 316 and some more as it came back down. And so I ended up making about $1,600 profit on that trade and I saw Zoe in the chat room made 13,000 which is awesome. I think a lot of you guys did better than me on it because you were more aggressive. you got into it a little bit faster.

I was just a little bit more conservative today because I had lost on my first two trades and I really don't want to go for a third loss in a row. so I just kind of waited until it really showed me confirmation that it was strong. which meant I was buying at a higher price. So I still made money, but I made a little less than a trader who is more aggressive.

Of course, being aggressive. you know it is relative to where you're at on the week, on the day, on the month. all that stuff. and I just didn't feel like I was really in a place to be super aggressive.

So anyways, took a trade there, made some money, and then I got back in right here for the break over $3 thinking it would retest high up day. So I added at 3 298 and 299 sold half at 304 and the rest at 3:02 and 290. so that was like a hundred and fifty dollar winner. and with that I was like alright now I think I'm done I said guys I'd keep it on watch over 308.

The high when I had gotten in was 308 and ended up coming back up and tapping 315 and then it dropped all the way down to 293 before then going and hitting high today. So you know kind of that choppiness and I don't know. um I I under traded it I didn't over trade it I didn't push my luck on it I under traded it but I'm walking away green on the name I'm walking away green on the day. $500 a day keeps the job away.

So I'm happy with that and you know I'm not gonna push it. Today's the 95th trading day of the year. I've been averaging right around $3,000 per day. So yes, today I am underneath my um below my average by quite a bit.

But I'll get it back on a day where you know the market is a little stronger and I'm willing to be a little more aggressive and I end up hitting that that big winner right out of the gates so you know. Anyways, that's kind of about it for me. two more days left in the month of May and you know I'm really hoping that we see some good opportunities, but since we've had too choppy days in a row and actually Thursday was pretty choppy for me as well. three choppy days in a row, you know I don't want to I don't want to make mistakes tomorrow or Thursday so it might be better just to continue to be conservative unless something really shows strength.

and so that's kind of thing is I want to, You know, have this stock, have a stock proved to me that it can be strong and it if it proves to me it can be strong. That's what. I'm willing to start to be a little more aggressive and and this one you know did prove itself a little bit. but also kind of strange because there's no news on it and you know it's kind of like where did this come from But you know by the time I was getting in at $3 you know it was up a lot and the volume was picking up so it made sense to take a stab at it.

But I would have felt maybe better about this one if it had a clearer catalyst that probably would have made me feel more comfortable being aggressive. So anyways, that's about it for me here today and we'll be back at it first thing tomorrow morning and hopefully we'll see as a gap scan or tomorrow that we can do a little more with than the one that we saw today. All right, so that's the game plan. I'll see you guys back here first thing tomorrow morning.
