What's up everyone, this is my first trading day here in new york, city um. I got him in here last night and today monday we traded uh. I am gon na be doing some trading on my own here in my own hotel room and also in a couple days later, i'm going to be trading in a group with my humble trader, community members in person in a workspace here in new york. So this is part of our humble trader.

Meetup, it's going to be a lot of fun, so i'm really looking forward to it um now i want to do some trading review on some of the trades. I did on the day here today in this hotel room in this exact setup. So before i start talking about all the tickers, i just want to say that i actually dislike travel trading. I think it's tons of work to carry all of these monitors.

I have two laptops: two usb monitors: it's a it's so much hassle to bring them. I was lucky enough that this hotel had an ethernet, cable, um outlet and i tested the speed. It was actually pretty fast, pretty decent, so i definitely lucked out there, but it's not always that you have fast internet or ethernet, cable, um in your airbnbs or in your hotel rooms. I think on the wi-fi connection i tested it.

It was only about like five megabytes per second, which is extremely slow. I mean we're talking about like dial boxes in like the early 2000s there, okay, so that's not gon na cut it and uh there's no way. I can trade um five megabytes per second anyways. So, let's talk about some trades, i did today whenever i'm doing travel trading i like to keep things light.

So, first of all i definitely cut my size. So if let's say regularly, i trade a thousand shares if i'm travel trading, i trade at 300 400 up to 500 shares, if that's the case, so i definitely cut size today and also uh. You know not making not making excuses, but you know i did okay. Today, but i slept only three hours last night, so it's definitely not in a good mood this morning.

So, let's start with a loose on the day: first um pvd and alibaba alibaba. I did okay on the short side. However, i definitely lost on the long side. Um pdd is one where um i'm looking to long the stock, and i had some decent entries.

You can see i've traded on the five minute um. I was trying some decent entries, but the stock just had a lot of trouble breaking out and i definitely got chopped up a little bit. I mean this thing went from 55 to 58 within the first five minutes, while i'm trying to scale it on these dips to get long um. You know it definitely got chopped up.

I longed all these pullbacks here, so they were decent. Um got stopped out here. Some near the bottom, i still held some sold interview up and added back around the 56s, so that gave me some decent average. I was trying to add here thinking that we're going to retest how day didn't happen.

Uh, i got rug pulled. I still you know it was holding around 56, so i was holding it and now around here. It's where i realized the market is kind of selling off the gap, and this thing just not holding so that's why i had to bail on the long side. This chair really sucks.

Here's a that's another thing. Why i hate trading hotels, you don't you get unreliable internet um! Also unreliable chairs run um. This one is an uh solar play. Solar stock was gapping up um.

This thing sold off the gap pretty much in the morning. That's the reason i didn't loan a stock because it didn't do what pdd and alibaba did in which they kind of broke out first and then pulled back into v1 and then dipped and reclaimed. This one did not do that this one, just literally just dumped at the open like dumped like they dropped it like it's hot, okay, okay, that was unnecessary. I know, but anyways this thing just dumped um.

I got in short actually when broke the key level of 30 dollars got in short, shorted, 29 down to 28. You know decent one dollar a share um. I really added some back here, and this is where i had a little scalp on the short side. Um and nature on the similar um reclaimed setup as the pvd and alibaba, but at that time market was kind of dumping.

So i didn't really trust this um or any stock on the long side. So i didn't get backing on alongside but uh. That was the idea there. I think everything just sold out of the gap today, so that was very unfortunate uh and these this is more of a scalp play.

I was just trading more along the daily levels here: around 109. shorted, the open at 1, 00. 8. 90S um covered some into 107s, tried to add here and we added around this lower highs around 108, and i got out over down here around the 107s and over here, 107 60s.

You can see they did on this thing, ripped back to highs and did another false breakout, which we've been seeing a lot and that's been pretty frustrating that a lot of the stocks are not holding the breakouts pretty much rejected the highs or it broke through the Highs for like a couple of in this case, like 50 cents and reject back down again so it was purely a short squeeze. This thing dumped from one night down to 108, 107 and literally went to 104.. So when i'm travel trading, i want i'm more conservative with my size with my price targets and how long i'd hold the position. I just don't want any headaches, while i'm just away not in my home setup, with more monitors and more screen real estate and faster execution.

A couple other ones here, food too this one turned out to be a just, a little short scalp um when with future. This is another one of these chinese stocks, the china names um. So this thing did a lot better, even better than um, pdd and alibaba. At the open i mean this thing ripped from forty dollars all the way to forty eight.

That's eight dollars a share in we're talking about like what in half an hour, that's crazy, um, i'm, i kind of regret not putting this on my main watch. I had this on my sidewatches, with, along with other china names um, but this one you know i haven't traded this all that much before. So i was a little bit disappointed that i missed it both on the long side, because this is around the area. When i was longing, if you recall from earlier alibaba and pdd, that was the area was long, so this one did a lot better 43 dollars all the way to 48.

No, i missed a long side. However, i did not miss the short side, the short side. Actually started in around 45 and added some 46 50s. I got out most of it actually on this little scalp, because i saw that alibaba in the market at the time was kind of breaking out to new highs.

So i was trying to be more conservative with the shorts, while it's still on the front side. You know the stock is still up trending on the five minute, as you can see, uh broke through 46 ripped to 48 and then i turned around. I was like okay, this thing's probably going to 50, because if you look at daily chart, this thing has a lot of upside to the daily um 200 sma area. So that's why i was thinking now.

Okay, if this thing can break through the higher day successfully through 47 dollars, it's probably going all the way to the the the like scion line area. So that's what i had in mind. So i left this thing alone. Thinking it's either gon na pull back consolidate for long well goes to 50 for short uh, which didn't happen.

You can see this thing break out to 48 and dumped like it's hot, something like it's hot so when it just like dropped like this is what we just talked about earlier with amd right, a false breakout through higher day. This thing went up for a dollar. Fifty cents, that's a lot uh, but immediately dropped all the way back down. So that's where i see that uh, the momentum has shifted a lot of times after that.

False breakout is where you see the difference in the price action um. This thing just immediately dropped from 47 down to 45 and that's why i got in short, 46 46 dollars. I was a little bit worried that i accidentally got in my regular size, so i had to downsize rather quickly, because i can't you know don't want to forget that i'm still on a trading setup. After all, so this thing went from um 46 down to 45 44 50s, and with this, since the range is so big, you really don't need that big of a size to kind of hit your conservative conservative goal on the day.

So that's why i always had in mind you know i'd rather be on smaller size. You know keeping my wrist tighter and holding on to that small winner or small runner longer which didn't okay. It didn't really happen i held as far as from 46 dollars down to 44 40. That's not bad and when this thing started reclaiming viwa 45s um like the rest of the chinese names you know normally, i would try to hold it for at least i go one third position, one fourth for break even around 46.

That's why i normally would have done, but since i'm on a travel setup, you know it's been a very tiring 24 hours. I just didn't want to deal with any potential headache. You can say i left a lot of money on the table, which is definitely true, especially with amd and a lot of few other stocks that you saw one last one. It's a small cap imte.

This is one that i um remember trading when this thing was like around here, i think was it last year or early of uh 2022 um, but this is uh, definitely like a more uh speculative dilutive stock uh. So that's why, with this, these names, i'm usually more short, biased, um. This thing. Actually, i actually heard this from benzene charlie's um commentary on.

Oh the stock was halted um. It wasn't originally on my watches. So when i heard him say that i pulled it up, i looked at it. I see um halted upside actually from 10 to 11 to 12 over here right, so weighing uncoated.

You know i showed it only. I didn't have a lot of shares. To short, i showed it only 500 shares, but on these penny stocks, that's really all you need 500 shares. That's like a very, very small starter for me, but with these, when this thing immediately rejected the prior day's closed area after the young hold boom, it went from 12 to 11 and that covered some um.

I even tried to add a little bit down here. Um covered some around 10 80s right, we're talking about like a 11 17 average cover some seven sev ten and then all the rest of it around, like the 90. nine dollars area so um. That was that, and i'm happy for my cover too right.

If, if i'll be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that i'm on a travel trading setup, i would have held a lot more shares and tried to add around this area eleven dollars, trying to write it down even lower to possibly 950s or like nine dollars. Eight dollars, but it's because i'm on this trading setup and my own rule of you know, travel trading is to take things most conservatively with size price target um. You know everything else. So i'm happy.

I basically just got out near the bottom, and this thing went all the way back to where i shoot it in the first place around 12, so um, that's just my style. I like to be more conservative when i'm away from my home trading setup away from my monitor and my fiber optics cable um, so i'm actually really happy. I did that so here's kind of just what i did today um you can see a lot of losers. I talked about mostly on alongside for bd pdd and alibaba, and a lot of profits come from a short site just because that's kind of like the market sentiment today, a lot of stocks are not holding the gap up so you're just selling off.
