What's up everyone? All right? Well here we are. It's end of the week and I'm finishing the day up over seven thousand dollars. Another really solid day. TWM See was the big winner today and it was a surprise because I traded it on Tuesday and the thing was choppy I mean it popped up and then flushed back down.

ended up closing the day red and so today it gapped up, broke Tuesday's high and searched all the way up to nearly $9 a share. What was the high? crazy? So thank goodness! I Got a couple really good entries and traded it very nicely. So I'm really happy with my trades on it and what I'm gonna do for you guys is tomorrow. I'm gonna upload a special video where I talk a little bit about the challenge of trading the big gainers the big gap errs the challenge of trading them with composure, staying calm, cool, collected while holding sometimes a pretty big position.

And I'm gonna give you guys a chance to watch my live trading archive of these trades this morning with my commentary of me breaking down, pausing the video and saying this is what I was thinking in this moment. this is what I did what I did or this is a little bit of mistake that I made but you know it was, you know it happened. So I want you guys to watch that that's gonna be coming tomorrow. but right now we're gonna break down the trades the gaffer's and as always if you guys some questions and comments, leave them down below and I'll see it for tomorrow's episode and then I'll be back at it on Monday morning.

Alright I hope you guys enjoy the weekend I'll see you on Monday What's up everyone? All right? So we're gonna do our midday market recap here: I'm gonna finish the morning up seven thousand, two hundred, forty one dollars and twenty three cents which is a solid day. I could have been a little better I gave back a little profit off the top. Actually my last three trades were three red trades. so I now have to stop trading.

No choice I am at one of my thresholds the three thresholds as I'm using right now. if I have 3 red trades in a row I walk away if I'm down more than my daily max loss I walk away and if I hit my daily goal and then give back half my profit I walk away while I'm still green TSR I was a really tricky one I'm up 42 dollars on it. Not very impressive. this is one that was, you know I mean you look at it and yesterday this was at 4 bucks and today it's it.

a high of 888 and what was very interesting was that right around $8 we saw a buyer for 26,000 shares at 8:00 it dipped down and right here that entire buy order got filled. so someone bought 26,000 shares. Then it came up again. Okay, pop back up and right here.

another buy order for 20,000 shares. So someone's trying to buy 50,000 shares of this stock and when I saw this second one, I was like okay I'm getting in because if someone's trying to buy 50,000 shares in my mind, they must know something unless they're covering a short position. but the high was only 841. There's no way someone shorted 40,000 shares Now of course, someone could be short in theory from anywhere back here and could be covering for a loss, but it's kind of hard to imagine doing that when the stock is as extended as it is.

without news you know it's seen, its obviously extended. So I thought that this was gonna be a good long and I actually bought it eight I first bought it at 819 right here and then I stopped out when that actually broke. So I stopped out at eight dollars in the last 400 bucks. My first trade by the way was down in here and I made 400.

so on this trade I gave back to 400 I made and then I got back in right here and it popped up to 88. but I didn't sell any of it I held because I really thought this is this looks to me like something that's gonna go higher given the fact that someone just bought it if he almost 50,000 shares of the stock. So I held and then it came all the way back down and so I'm back out of it with only $42 a profit. So I don't know I guess I got kind of I don't know twisted around on this one.

but that's okay, you know and sometimes that's the way it is. I did pretty well on TW MC so t WM C So anyway, so let's my last to read trades. I was read here and I guess read here. Maybe this was a small green trade but it feels like a loser so that was that.

and then TW MC This was a very interesting one. It was on our watch list and right down here up 21% And what? I'm actually gonna do tomorrow. So I'm doing my recap now. What I'm going to do this afternoon is: I'm gonna go through the the live recording of these trades on TWM CNTs RI and I'm going to annotate them: I'm gonna slow it down, rewind, show you where I got in where I got out and I'm going to turn that into a video and I'm gonna put it as a link on YouTube So I'll upload a video to YouTube tomorrow Saturday that will give you a link to download the live trading archive and commentary.

and of course I'll upload it for warrior pro students as well. So TW MC I'll break down in more detail there, but it was a leading third, leading gapper top of the watchlist and I was a little hesitant on it because on the daily chart, we had this move right here. this big rejection on Tuesday so it pops up, it breaks out over the 200, fails and then flushes back down. ends up closing the day red and it did that on the news that they were selling the FYE segment of their business.

So now they have the headline this morning that they've closed the sale and entered into a credit facility and it just seems like it seems odd to me that this base Bay very similar headline is creating such a big move when yes, when two days ago or whatever, it creates such a drop. By the way, TOC a is very impressive I didn't trade this one at all I kind of missed the boat on it focusing on other stocks I am definitely impressed. Oh gosh, that's gonna get me a little FOMO because this would be the perfect type of stock to trade in my TD Ameritrade account. but I can't do it.

It's past 10:30 and I had my three consecutive losses and I don't want another haircut so I'm not gonna I'm gonna try not to think about it. So anyways, TW MCI took a number of trades on this I was holding going into this halt right here and then I took this trade right here which gave a nice quick 45 50 60 cent breakout and it put me up a total of about $8,000 I then went back in. You know you got to be careful of overstaying your welcome. I went back in on this dip right here and as it was squeezing up here I thought that this thing was going back to high a day I really did and in fact I was wrong because it has not gone back to high a day.

I hit a high of 33 and then it sort of faded and been petering out a little bit. Um so anyways I unfortunately was holding that while at the same time in ESRI and I held until down here it came down to 760 and I stopped out. So I ended up losing almost $1000 on that trade which was more than I should have lost. but I was focusing on two stocks at the same time and it was kind of it was.

That's not usually a good idea and it did cost me today. Well, you know. One of the things that of course I always say is that every day you're either leaving money on the table or giving back profit to the market and you know today's a day where I'm giving back a little bit of profit to the market about fifteen hundred dollars or so and you know I'm um, I'm okay with that because you know when I was first trading this morning after my first trade on Twi MC and I made about $2,700 I could have just stopped there. you know I wouldn't have given back any profit, but I would have said all right, I'm stopping I've made three grand or whatever.

it's a good day and I would have been leaving a lot of money on the table. So what I generally like to do is I keep trade and keep trading until I start to give back profit and then once I start to feel like I'm going kind of over and and giving back profit I try to cut it real quick and walk away. Now this is very this is very challenging because sometimes when you start to give back profit, your emotions spike and you start to get angry frustrated. especially if you give back like three or four thousand even though I would still be up.

you know, three or four thousand on the day. If I gave back that much, it would of course feel like a real loss. and and that could trigger a whole round of emotional trading, which can then result in some really big losses. So it's not the case that every single day I'm in a good mental space to be able to trade right up to that threshold because when I get up to that threshold, that's when things can get a little bit crazy and I did give back a little profit today, but I am okay with the way I did it so again.

coming tomorrow Live Trading Archive with the annotation and commentary from these trades on TW M C and T Sr I and we back at it first thing Monday morning. This is gonna put me up just about 70 68, maybe 68 thousand dollars on the month which is really solid. It's a fantastic month and we've still got five days left. so all of next week this of course is a leap year.

February I don't have my calendar right in front of me although I guess I have it right down here on the whatever. So we've got five days left and I'm just again. I'm not setting any goals, expectations, or targets for the month. It doesn't matter.

I'm just gonna come in on Monday morning and try to have a great day. If I can make 500 bucks, that's awesome. If I make a thousand cool. if I make 5 grand, you know I'll get a pat on the back.

puts a little cushion in my account and I'll surely need that cushion at some point down the road. When I go into a little bit of a slow stretch and I make an only you know, a couple hundred a day because the market is slow I Mean that's you've got to think of it that way. It's the ebb and the flow, the up and down and it's simply not realistic to expect that you will make the same amount of money every single day when you come into trade. Well, you know I'll say it again.

day trading is very hard and it's It's a high-risk activity in a lot of ways. I've done the best that that I can to minimize my risk and to try to make it easy for me, but it's still hard because of those ups and downs. You know, of course, if no one complains about having a week or a month where you make $70,000 but then when you have a month where you come in every single day and you only make five grand or even worse, you lose five grand, it can feel really. you could just feel really deflated from that.

And that was my month of January You know I came in every single day in January and I had about seventy thousand dollars in winners I had about fifty eight thousand dollars in losers and then I had twelve thousand dollars in commissions I finished the whole month breakeven and you know that was a little disappointing. but rather than let it get me rattled and make me start thinking my knee had changed my strategy, maybe I should start trading large caps? Maybe I should start. you know, swing trading or pulling some lottery tickets on options I said no I'm just gonna stick with what I know because I always get through these cold cycles and I always get to the other side. and here we are on the other side, so hopefully we see some more nice momentum next week.

I would say if this week is in the indicator, we probably will because we've seen some fantastic opportunities this week. So again, stay tuned for that episode. But I'm gonna upload tomorrow Saturday and I will see you guys all first thing on Monday Morning. All right.

Enjoy the weekend! I'm just glad that it's not another three-day weekend. Three-day weekends are the worst. All right. See you guys on! Monday Learn more about trading.
