I feel joy.
>> Year after year, I felt stuck. I didn't
think that I could actually make trading
work. I thought that I wasn't smart
enough. I thought that I needed a
finance degree at literal minimum. I
thought I needed to have gone to school
for a lot longer than much more
financially literate, had either an
economics degree, anything. I thought
maybe Wall Street savvy. It was all
wrong. I didn't need any of that. I grew
my trading account from $5,000 to half a
million. Whether you are a nineto-fr
working full-time or multiple jobs like
I did. Whether you have zero experience,
which I also had no experience, or maybe
you're someone that's gotten into
trading, but you just haven't found the
success you maybe fell off because you
didn't see the progress or you didn't
see the success you were looking for in
the amount of time that you were doing
it. Trading is an opportunity like no
other. I have achieved the life that
every trader dreams of. I'm living a
realistic, incredible life. This is
truly a skill that you can learn that
there is no qualifications. You don't
have to have any sort of degree. You
don't need to look any type of way. You
don't need to fit any kind of box. This
is truly the coolest skill that you can
learn to generate income. I am living
proof that anybody can do this. We got
another record trade.
>> Awesome.
>> I was able to close $40,000 trade in
platinum this morning.
>> Wow. Isn't that crazy? It's so crazy.
>> The secret, it wasn't a complex
strategy. It wasn't some scientific
mathematical formula. It was one simple
system that was repeatable that I could
do over and over again. Whether you're
working full-time like I was, or if you
have no experience in the markets
whatsoever, for the first time ever, I
am revealing everything that I know,
everything that took me years to get to
in my trader and 3-day challenge. This
is a live event, but it's virtual, so
anybody can attend. I'm going to share
with you guys the lessons that took me
years to figure out. So, even if you
have never traded before, that's where I
started. Zero experience. Don't even
think that you fit the category. Or if
maybe you started and you haven't made
the progress, or even if you started and
didn't see that progress you wanted and
fell off, this is going to be the event
for you.
>> Just think one day you were saying,
"Wow, this what is this trading stuff?"
Super exciting. I tell you, you got some
gifts. You got a topic that the world's
interested in. If there's one thing for
sure, you are going to walk away with
the confidence to place your first trade
after this event and have the roadmap to
making this a full-time career. The same
system that turned my $5,000 into over
half a million dollars.
>> It's official. I decided to move to
Nashville.
Oh my god.
>> No way.
>> September 14th through 16th. You're not
going to want to miss this. Make sure to
secure your spot now.
Heat. Heat.
Heat. Heat.

Heat.
Heat up here.
Hi everybody.
Welcome to day three. You did it. You
made it through. Congratulations all of
y'all.
You made it through four hours of
curriculum yesterday. That has got to be
the hardest part. And you did it. You
made it through. I got a few questions
for you guys before we get started. And
I'm going to go shift one here. I mean
shift seven. There we go. Okay. I got a
few questions for you guys.
How many of you got to place your first
trade ever yesterday?
Now, there will be a little bit of a lag
because, you know, we're not just 100%
caught up, so it's going to be just a
moment, but I'm so excited to see this.
How many of you guys placed your first
ever live I'm sorry, first ever sim
trade, but we did it live together?
Okay. Okay. We got Sheila, we got Jim,
we got M. We got Betty. We got Oh,
Darren was already on 10 trades. I'll
say that's He was probably working on it
while we're doing curriculum.
Okay, Dylan did. Ashley. Okay, Jason.
How exciting. You did it. Was it not
that crazy?
It wasn't that crazy. And this is when I
tell you guys this is my mission. My
mission is to show you guys that it's
not that crazy.
everyone that just in the industry that
tries to make trading out to be this
crazy thing. Okay, we got a $220 profit,
too. It's It's not It's not the hardest
part of trading, guys, which I think we
went over plenty of times, is the
repetition. Getting the reps in and
doing it over and over again, being
consistent. Because most people that
want to or set out to do anything that's
worth doing at all, most of them give
up.
We're already one step ahead by just
simply getting the reps in and doing it
over and over again. Oh my gosh, these
profits are crazy. Minnie made 1%. Let's
go. Let's go. We got a one to2 R.
$100 profit with Mike Carl. Okay. 25
pounds.
Over $200, Steve. This is insane, you
guys. Amazing work. I'm so proud. Okay,
I am curious for those of you guys that
placed the trade with me together, how
many of you guys stuck out the oil
trade. So, yesterday at the finally the
end of the session, we had time. I
wasn't getting off that stream until we
did it together. We placed a trade in
crude oil. We placed a long position. I
am curious how many of you guys stuck it
through and continued to go. Okay, we've
got someone made someone held it
overnight. Okay, stop loss got hit.
Coolest thing is you can just leave a
trade and worst case scenario, if your
computer dies, you forget it's open. You
got the stop loss on there. Somebody
made $10,000. Kevin, Kevin, what are you
doing? Do you look up our risk? Was this
a high-risisk trade? We got $1,500
today.
All right, let's go, guys. Let's go.
Michelle said it hit her stop loss. All
right. Now we know $200. Okay. Okay.
Now, another question that I have for
you guys. Someone did 296.
Excellent work, guys. Excellent work.
Someone held overnight. Um, Cosmo said,
"I did it on my phone." Adrien, it's all
right. You got it out of the way. I
don't know if you guys remember what we
call ourselves. Um, let's see if we got
a few. If you know, you know. What do we
call ourselves with a smile and we're
like, "Yeah, dude. It's me."
Let's see what we got. All right. Cyber
Frost, I remember you from yesterday. We
used you as an example. Cyber Frost had
two wins and two losers. Julie, that's
exactly it. Linda, you're on it. Yep.
Get in losers. We're going trading.
We But we understood completely and
utterly what that means to be a loser.
It is not any hit to the ego. Oh, it's
not being down on yourself. We know that
is absolutely part of the system, part
of the strategy. Exactly. It is correct
losers. Losing correctly. You guys did
amazing.
Okay. And then the last question that I
have for you guys, um we call ourselves
losers. You guys did place that trade um
in crude oil. But now, how many of you
went out and continued to do it on your
own? Actually got some reps in. Did you
continue to trade crude oil? Did you
know how to place your next trade? How
many of you guys were able to keep
going?
I am curious because the first trade was
easy. I walked you guys through it. But
now the hard part was could you have
identified a second entry?
Okay. So, we got Sam was able to do a
second trade. Tom was able to do a
second trade. Sue was able to do a
second trade.
Okay. Okay. Okay.
All right. So, that was my that was my
biggest question was, okay, did I give
you guys enough information yesterday to
where you can confidently do it on your
own? I walked you through the first one
and I needed to see how many of you guys
were able to get into the second one.
So, great job. Great work, guys. I am so
excited. This is the best way to start
day three. We are in for a treat today.
So, let's go ahead and get into our
slides. We've got everybody here.
Everybody ready to roll? I'm gonna use
my handy dandy shortcut here.
I'm just kidding. Um team, if you guys
could throw the slides up for me. I
don't know how to do it.
There it is. Thank you. Thank you. All
right, guys. You did it. Welcome to day
three. Welcome to the last day. So
exciting. Now, what did we go over? What
have we covered? You guys got to see how
to place your first paper trade, your
first demo trade. You did it. Check the
box off. accomplished. Way to go. You
understand what the opportunities are in
trading. Most of you guys were able to
continue to keep going, to place a
second trade, to place a third trade,
and you were able to see how you can
scale what you have learned from
yesterday specifically, and to be able
to actually make money from it. So, even
if these are SIM dollars, demo dollars,
you guys can see that it can be done.
You saw the three-step system yesterday.
We went about three and a half hours
into training. Lots and lots and lots of
training. We went over testing and then
we briefly touched on tracking, which is
what I'm so excited to get into today.
We're going to hit tracking home. We're
going to hit it hard. We're going to hit
the home run. The words aren't working,
but you get the idea. Day three tracking
is going to be huge today.
Now, we do understand this. If most
traders lose their capital, we
understand that there is 80 to 90% of
traders who lose their capital when they
get into trading. We've already gone
over this, but if most traders lose,
lose their capital when they get into
trading, what is the very first thing
that we should focus on? What is our
main goal here?
And this is for everyone that attended
yesterday.
Boom. David's got it. That's what I'm
talking about. That is our number one
priority.
Exactly. We're protecting our capital.
We're protecting our capital. Now,
Farsza, um, it's not it's actually not
correct. We are not trying to not lose
money. We understand that we do have to
lose money. And I'll see if we got this
recap in here, but yes, there we go.
Eevee's got it. Eevee, keep capital,
lose correctly. We're not trying to
avoid losses. Those are inevitable.
Those are going to happen. We just want
to make sure that we're taking correct
losses.
Way to go, Jeffrey. That's what I'm
talking about. Way to go, Monica. You
guys got it. Okay. Excellent. Excellent.
Keeping our capital. You got it correct.
Now, also remember guys, this is where
I've showed this. This will be the third
time, but it's it hits home every time
for you guys to be able to see where
you're at now in the potential of where
you could go.
I showed you guys this yesterday. I'm
going to show it to you again. the
difference between one singular trade in
2022 and one singular trade in 2025. The
fact that it's the same strategy,
the same setup, just different
positions, different sized positions.
This one right here is from 2022. I know
it's a little bit blurry here, but this
was a $300 profit using the same lines
we went over yesterday versus this one
in 2025, a $50,000 profit.
Same setup, same system. We had an
action line, we had a safety line.
Now remember, our goal is keeping our
capital and we know that it is normal to
switch positions if the king, you guys
know the price says so. We understood
that it was
uh it's not an easy thing to do to think
from long to short, short to long. It's
not easy to want to change your mind, to
think that you're wrong, to have made a
decision to go long or to go short and
then for it to be wrong. But we
understood that that's just simply what
we have to do. We have to submit to the
price.
It is normal to pay fees. And remember
this is what we call our losses. So we
absolutely have to lose. We have to take
losses. We have to take losers. But if
they're done correctly, it should
absolutely feel like a fee. That's what
we call the losses. Fees. We're just
paying fees. That is part of the game.
It's paytoplay.
That's why we call ourselves losers.
Now, what the market does, we don't
know. We don't care, and we have no
control over. Our little tiny trades are
drops in the bucket.
I'm I'm talking like micro minuscule
drops in the bucket. What we do does not
impact or change the price. We also know
that we have no control over what the
king decides to do. If he's marching
north, if he's marching south, if we're
going up, if we're going down, if we're
going long, if we're going short, we
don't have control over that. What we do
have control over is how we react and
how we can just simply follow the price.
So, we went over training. We went over
congratulations for everyone that stuck
it out yesterday. We learned the proper
psychology for the first half of
yesterday, which was setting the tone.
This was making sure that everyone
completely understood how to even
approach the markets, how to think about
losses, how to think about the markets
in general. This was such a key pivotal
point in starting yesterday's training,
which is talking about psychology. And
then we went over strategy. Lots and
lots and lots and lots of strategy
yesterday. Now, we went over testing. We
got to get a single rep in together. But
now, the coolest part is you guys were
able to get more reps in after
yesterday's session. So, that's the part
that I'm incredibly proud of that you
guys were able to make the decision on
your own without me.
Now, today we're going to be talking
much more about tracking. How you move
from random trial and error to actually
running a profitable strategy. I'm
assuming that says strategy. There it
is. Yes, running a strategy.
Now, I already saw some of the uh
questions in the chat. The moment that
you guys have all been waiting for
today.
We are just moments away from our
special guest,
Umar Ashraf,
verified 8 figureure trader and more
than a decade of experience. He's got
more than me. I'm I feel like it's 11 or
12, but I cannot remember. It's one of
the two. Also the founder of Tradezella,
the number one trading journal. Okay.
What is he going to be going over today
with you guys, though? the five stages
from beginner to pro that every trader
needs to go through. So everything that
we learned yesterday, everything that we
learned on day one, we we saw the
strategy proven, we saw that your mentor
has been proven, we saw that you can
believe in yourself, that you can prove
it to yourself. Then day two, we went
over psychology. We went over strategy.
But now, how do we move from beginner to
pro?
This is not about skipping ahead. We've
already talked about this. This is not
become a millionaire overnight. This is
putting the work in and working through
every single stage here.
Um, what is your favorite part from
Umar's session? You won't have an answer
to that one because you haven't gone
there yet.
All right, so we are stopping right
here. I'm going to see if we've got Umar
in the chat. We've still got a few more
minutes. Um, I want to let you guys know
there's a few things about Umar that you
might not know. Um there was a survey
done I believe it was in 2023
where there was a survey of most
handsome trader. He won he won most
handsome trader in 2023. I don't think
you guys know that about him. He doesn't
like to brag about it. Uh it's true it
happened. I I can verify because I did
do the survey. It was me. Um, but I will
say Umar is one of the most respected
traders in the space. I even coming from
me, I there's a lot of traders out
there. There's a lot of influencers out
there. There's a lot of I'd say mentors
out there. I'd say my top two would be
Uncle Mike, my mentor, and Umar Ashraf.
Like, highly respected. The fact that
I'm even able to get him on this call
today, guys, is an insane value here. I
had to pull some mega strings because he
doesn't do this for everyone. So, I'm
hoping that everyone can be incredibly
respectful of his time today. This is an
incredible opportunity working through
the five stages. So, make sure just like
we did yesterday, you guys are taking
notes. You're taking notes. Everything
that we're going through each one of
these stages here will be applicable
from what we learned yesterday. We are
learning about scaling. How do we go
from beginner to pro? All right. Now,
without further ado, I believe we've got
we've got my team working on the setup.
So, give us just a second here. We're
getting them in.
Let me get a let me get a okay from my
team real quick that we've got them in
here.
Okay, we're still working on it. We got
some tech difficulties, so hang tight.
Hang tight. All right, while we're here
and we're just hanging around, um what
is something that you guys already know
about Tradezella or Umar Ashraf? I want
to see maybe if you guys got some some
fun facts here that maybe I don't even
know.
Thank you, Pierro, for holding down the
chat. We love you. We love you. We've
got some of my team here answering
questions. If you guys have any
questions, we've got my team here in the
chat helping out. Okay, Gordon. Legit.
Yes, Roger. Yep, I'd agree with you on
that one.
There we go.
I am curious how many of you guys do
have Tradzella or have heard of
Tradzella or have used it before.
If you don't, it's this is something
where yes, I have an affiliate. I have
an affiliate code. Even if I didn't,
this would be a program that I promote
fully and wholeheartedly with my chest.
It is one of the greatest journaling
softwares out there. Now, are there
other ones? Yeah, sure. Could you write
it down? Could you do it yourself? We
went over this yesterday. Could you
create a Excel spreadsheet? Yeah, sure.
But the amount of data that you get from
the way that Tradezel is programmed.
Also, the amount of AI that they're
coming out with and that they already
have is just absolutely mind-blowing.
It's ahead of the curve. It's ahead of
its time. So, the absolute number one
trading journal on the market.
Okay. So, Skyline's looking for trades,
Zella. Well, I think Skyline after
today's session, you will have you'll be
convinced. It's an incredible platform.
Now, remember this is part of the
giveaway. So, for some of you guys, I
mean, I know I'm going to be mentioning
it later, but today is the last day. If
you're here, you are eligible for the
giveaway, and we got a few. I'm going to
not spill too much of the beans, but
just remember, there are giveaways. And
if you were here today, you're already
eligible. If you showed up yesterday and
you showed up day one, you guys are
eligible for the giveaways.
So congratulations to everyone making it
three days in a row.
All right, we you heard it here first
from Daniel Tradezella number one game
changer. There we go. Jasmine.
All right, Marty. Marty, go back to
yesterday. Insane amount of value.
A someone says I don't deserve a
giveaway. Well, if you made it all three
days, you absolutely deserve a giveaway.
Um, give me just a moment. I got to make
sure I didn't just skip something. I'm
just sitting here yapping. And we got
Umar just sitting here on hold.
Okay. Okay. Okay. I'm so excited.
I don't think you guys understand the
weight of the situation here.
This is I'm I'm so stoked right now.
Believe it or not, guys, I have um I
have my notes ready. I'll be taking
notes. Shine bright like a diamond. Um,

Umar Ashraf to join the live stream

over the five stages from beginner to
pro that every trader must go through.
Every single trader.
Remember, this is not about skipping
ahead. This is doing the work in each
stage.
So, if you haven't had your uh calendar
marked up yet or if you don't have your

Just remember, that's like a majority.
Oh, okay. We got Umar in Umar, you
missed your introduction, but it was a
beautiful one.
>> Sorry, I will rewatch it. I was having a
hard time joining Streamyard for some
reason was not letting me join, but how
how's everyone doing? Can I see all the
comments or
>> um I don't know if you can see them, but
I can. Everybody's stoked to see you.
Stoked to have you.
>> I'm excited to be here. All right. Are
we ready to kick it off?
>> Yeah, we are. I let them know that
you're going over the five stages from
beginner to pro. Everyone's taking
notes. Everybody's ready. Um my only uh
question for you, Umar, is to We got a
lot of beginners in the chat, so just
don't scare them away.
>> Yeah, know. So, so I I'll I'll cover
everything where it it it touches on
beginners to like advanced traders and
uh there's parts here that still apply
to me, right? So, just to take a step
back, let me introduce myself. Uh my
name is Omar. I don't know what the
introduction was. Sorry, so sorry I
missed it. Um I've been trading for like
12 13 years now. I've made almost every
single mistake that everyone's made. Uh
I'm I still make them now. Uh it's just
at a much much higher level. uh the
mistakes end up costing more money, but
they still happen. And ultimately what I
want to walk you guys through is
essentially the five stages every trader
has to go through, what those five
stages look like, the reality of
trading, uh and just kind of like give
you the insights of like, hey, how do
you go from stage one to two, what
consistent stage two, and all the
difficulties and challenges, and once
again, how to overcome them.
>> Excellent. All right, Omar, I'm going to
hand it to you.
>> Cool. Okay, so got to share my screen.
So, uh,
>> don't worry, we're working through it.
Um, I'm going to have my backend guy.
All you need to do is hit the screen
share in the middle of StreamYard and
then I'm going to have my team pop it up
full screen for you.
>> Cool. Okay, let me get this right here.
Hit share.
>> But you'll be uh you'll be tickled if
you go back and listen to your intro. I
told something that uh many people don't
know about you.
>> All right, let's I will watch it after.
Uh, okay. Wind doc screen. Let's go to
window.
Okay.
All right.
>> There we go. All right. Um team, if you
guys could pop Umar up on top and you
can take me down. I'm just going to be
in the background taking notes. Also,
I'll be taking notes from today. So,
thank you, Umar.
>> All right. Can everyone see my see my
screen?
>> Um, not yet. Give it just a second. I
still got my backend team trying to make
you
make you first and foremost. So, give me
just a sec.
probably record this just so I have
the writing.
>> Oh, let me see. Okay.
>> What did you guys cover today?
>> Can you hear me?
>> Oh, we're here. We're here.
>> Okay. Okay. You disappeared. I was like,
"Oh, man. Did I lose every
>> We just did recap. So, the floor is
yours."
>> All right, cool. All right, guys. So, as
I said, I'm going to talk about the five
stages of profitable trading, and
ultimately, I want to help you guys
build a profitable trading system
overall and just kind of walk you
through what that all looks like. So,
these are the five steps that I want to
kind of cover. Uh, ultimately, this is
where most people are, uh, in the
beginner novice stage. Uh, people
typically go into the developing stage
after. Uh this is where most people get
stuck in my opinion and like I said I'll
go through all of it individually one by
one and talk about how to get to the
next stage and how all of it looks like
and simplify for you guys. This is the
second stage once again developing
traders. Um and this also answers the
question when everyone's like oh how
long is it going to take me to become
profitable? How long is it going to take
me to know what I'm doing or you know
kind of find an edge?
Some people two years, some people a
year. Uh I'd be lying to say it's going
to take you two weeks, three weeks,
right? Uh it ultimately depends on all
the stuff that's done here. Then we go
to intermediate. And a lot of stuff that
happens in intermediate is just
optimization. Uh this is where you start
having some really good data. You start
knowing what to do with the data. You
start knowing how to kind of execute on
on on your playbooks, your strategies.
Uh what trades to eliminate. Uh and this
is like where you start to like tweak
things up. Then the advanced stage and
this is this is a stage where you know
it's it's usually back and forth because
this is where I I'm still at, right? And
like I'll go to this stage sometimes in
my in my trading career and then I would
go here and then I would go back here
and I would go here and I would go back
here. And the reason this area is
different is because this area comes
down to sizing up, right? Like how do I,
you know, instead of risking $10,000 per
trade, how do I go to 20? Instead of
risking 20,000, how do I go to 30? Like
how do I start sizing up? So it's like
if anyone's starting here and they go
from this stage to this, they'll like
hover back and forth, but the timeline
of here to here is just very dependent.
It is going to take months and months.
It's not going to happen in a short
period of time. And so I do want to set
up the right expectations as well for
everyone because, you know, in in in the
trading space, everyone comes in and
they're like, well, I'm going to start
trading and in, you know, a month I'm
going to be the most profitable trader
ever. Can you make money in one month?
Yes. But there's a very high possibility
you will lose that money because you
have not went through the proper
experiences, the proper approaches and
you you just don't have the proper
framework to continue. Right? So let's
start off with like the first few
things, right? So one thing I want to I
want to highlight really heavily here is
like we as traders we must have a proven
process with a well-defined risk to have
a shot at profitability. So if you do
not have a proven process, a proven
approach and you are not managing the
one thing we as traders can manage which
is risk, you will not like you you just
will not have a chance of being
profitable. So just to just to like
really nail this in everyone's head,
what is one thing we as traders and I
want everyone to like comment it down.
What is one thing we can control? Like
when you take a trade, let's say you
guys take a trade tomorrow, what is that
one thing you're like, this is the only
thing that is in my control. What is
that thing? Let me see if I can see the
comments for a second.
People are commenting, what's that risk?
Risk. Yes, risk is the main thing that
we can control, right? Obviously, you
can control your entry, you can control
your exit, but the thing you can control
is risk. So you can say, well, if we all
collectively, everyone in this chat
collectively enters the same trade.
The reality is not a single one of us
here is going to have 100% confirmation
if that trade is going to work in our
favor or not. But the thing that we can
all agree on that we will all be able to
control is what we risk. One person
might risk $200. One person may risk
$2,000. One person may risk $500, right?
That is something we can control. And
and everybody was talking about this
yesterday, the day before yesterday is
like our job here is to stay alive and
our job is to maintain our capital. So
if risk is the first thing we can the
only thing we can control and we kind of
amplify that this is the only thing we
can and we should think about
controlling what this means is during
this whole process and once again I'm
going to reiterate this again during
this whole process the thing we want to
be very consistent on during stage one
to stage two to stage three to kind of
stage four. or stage four is where risk
starts to become dynamic is we want to
control what we are risking on every
single trade. So I'll give you guys some
examples, right? Let's just say let me
kind of like take this and let me put
this in here. Let's just say we we have
10 trades, right? And in all of those
trades, if we risk 300 300
300, right? 300. And once again, the
risk has to make sense. Like you can't
start with a $2,000 account and say I'm
going to risk $1,000 per trade. Like you
also have to make sense of what you
risk. You have to a make sure the risk
element allows you to stay alive. Now if
you if you're in risking $300 per trade
and let's say for argument sake you have
a 10k account or let's say you're
risking $200, let's make it 2%. right
now. Essentially what happens is you you
you can take more trades and even if
hypothetically you're wrong, which you
will be a lot early on and you will lose
money early on. You allow yourself to
kind of not dig yourself a hole. What
happens with most traders is during
these stages, they'll go in and they'll
say, "Well, I want to go and I want to
risk,
you know, I feel really good about this
trade. I'm going to risk 3,000." And
then immediately their draw down goes
from 200 200 200 200 boom 3,000. and now
you're down 30% on your account. That's
something while you guys are on these
stages, once again, and I I I know I'm
reiterating that, I'm doing it on
purpose because I really want to nail it
down. Do not do not do not do not do not
let the risk element go away. Okay? So,
just wanted to optimize on that first.
Now, let's go through each stage and
let's go through stages one by one. And
you know, I I also want to know what
stage does everyone think they're at,
right? So once again, novice, you're a
complete beginner. You don't really have
any sort of recordkeeping. You don't
have any insight from data. Uh stage two
is you have data, you have some trades
you've taken. Uh the data is good data.
Uh you have some sort of strategy, you
have some sort of edge. It works
sometimes, it doesn't work sometimes,
and that thing can be optimized. Uh
stage three once again is like the data
is there. You've been journaling
consistently. You've been doing weekly
check-ins. Uh your metrics and
riskreward ratios, everything else is
pretty good. and the ideas to optimize.
And obviously phase four is like you
have all of this good and you're just
sizing up or down. What stage is
everyone on? Like if you had to guess
stage one, stage one, stage two,
developing,
never mind. Developing. Okay.
And and and we'll walk through all the
stages, right? One, stage three. A lot
of ones and twos, right? And some people
in two and three.
All right. Okay. All right. Cool. So
some people saying zoom in. They can't
see here. Let me zoom in.
Okay. So now let's go over let's go to
stage one. So stage one, right? So what
are we ultimately doing in stage one?
This is when someone's a complete
beginner. They have no foundation,
right? And this is where we want to
build up foundation. Want to build up
education. You want to like maybe paper
trade. You want to just kind of get
familiar with the markets. Uh the thing
you should kind of have an idea on on on
stage one and by the way guys if you're
at any stage and you are unsure I would
just start from here again and start to
go up because if you don't have things
done properly here you start to you you
can never pass any of the other stages
right so now when you go to stage one
you have foundation education let's say
you paper trade uh you you kind of build
the markets you want to trade so for
example you might say I want to trade
futures right I want to be a swing
trader
uh I want to you know my approach for
argument sake my approach to the market
is order flow you know this is your
approach what whatever it is and this is
where you start to learn this is where
you start to get a good grasp of what
you're doing what direction it is now if
you don't have this foundation properly
and you're here or you think you're here
and you're kind of confused you're going
to be stuck here forever right so so
another question how many people that
sit there on stage two or three or even
four have been stuck in that stage for a
really really long time. And when I say
a really long time, I'm saying if you've
been stuck on it for more than like
three, four, five months.
Yes.
Yeah. So, so the the the reason you're
stuck here is because once again,
anything on the on any of the previous
stages aren't developed properly, right?
So, when they go go to stage one, this
is the first thing everyone should have.
Everyone here should know like what is
my approach to the market? What markets
am I trading? For example, me, I trade
equities and I trade futures, right? And
obviously in between that ecosystem,
options kick in which ties into equities
and futures as well. But I am also day
trading. I also use orderflow. Uh I am
looking at the dynamics of the market,
buyers and sellers, trying to look at
who's more in control. Uh that is kind
of my quote unquote foundation. Now
after my foundation, I go on to data
collection. Right? So this is the most
outside of this obviously everything you
know works in stages is the most
important part and the reason this is
the most important part is because if
you do not have proper data collection
no matter what it is you will not be
able to understand your problems. You
will not be able to understand what is
working. You will not be able to
understand what uh strategies work good
when and any of anything around that.
Right? So let's talk a little bit about
data collection. So stage one is done
and now we go to data collection. So
what is data collection right? So data
collection is something to first
understand is there's there there's
something called good data and bad data.
Right? That that's that's that's one
thing you can't you know I think I think
people look at data and they think data
is kind of it's similar. It's the same
across all fields or all kind of uh you
know setups and strategies and
approaches. But there is a thing as good
data and bad data. So let's talk about
good and bad data, right? So if you have
bad data
and let's just say you have a lot of
data and it's bad, no matter what it is,
you you're going to be stuck in that
same spot. You you you won't be able to
get any insights from it. You won't be
able to get any value from it. Now if
you have good data, you're able to
identify your strengths. You're able to
identify your weakness. You are able to
identify certain things. Now, what do I
mean by good and bad data? So, let's
talk about data in general. Data goes
into all your trades that you are
tracking. So, for example, anyone that
is anyone that thinks they're on stage
three or even on stage two, are you
tracking any of your data? Do you have
data? Who here has data on their trades?
Like, if you have data, just say yes. If
you don't, say no. Right? So, how many
people just just just to get a quick
count right now? The next thing is for
people that think they have data. How
many of you think you have good data?
And how many of you think you have bad
data? Or you don't know? If you don't
know, say, "Hey, I don't I I don't know
if it's good or bad." Right? And we'll
we'll we'll go into some of the good and
bad data in a bit. Right now, when when
we're talking about good and bad data,
guys, this is where I think
understanding some of the parts of what
makes it good and what makes it bad. So,
this is an example of bad data. You have
no setups. you have no playbooks. In
other words, no strategy, right? Like
there's nothing that exists here. Uh and
even if you think you have a strategy,
uh all your trades you take, like if I
show you 10 trades, right? If I show
let's say 10 trades and I'm like, hey,
can you identify what the setups or
playbooks or strategies for these 10
trades are and you and you have a big
question mark of like I I don't know.
You have data because you have the 10
trades, but it's that data, right? So
that's one. you don't have no setups, no
playbooks, no strategy. Number two is
your data is not around one market or a
market. So for example, as I said to you
guys before, let's just say with me, I'm
saying, hey, I trade futures for
argument sake, right? If I trade
futures, now imagine I show you data
that has forex, that has crypto. Let's
just say I I tell you I day trade,
right? where I'm holding trades, you
know, for a couple of minutes to a
couple of hours, let's just say. And
when I show you my data, I have like
trades I'm holding for three months. I
have trades I'm holding for three
minutes. I have trades I'm holding for
like three weeks,
whatever the case is. So now there's
inconsistency of like my data because
now I have the data of three months,
three minutes, three weeks. I have those
trades that fit into data, but they're
all bad data. It's not consistent,
right? So like there's no like there's
no consistency in the way we track
something and we can't have a fair
comparison because it's not like a
comparison between apples and apples,
right? It's like apples and like mangoes
or something. So we want to have that
comparison to be consistent. That's why
the good data matters. Now what else? No
max loss per trade position size. So
let's let's lay this out, right? Let's
say you show me a trade and like once
again I'll show you guys some some
examples, right? You guys show me a
trade or you guys show me your last 10
trades. In those last 10 trades, let's
think think about this for a second. You
show me all 10 trades and I look at what
was the risk amount on those 10 trades.
And you know, you have you've risked
300. You risked 3,000, right? You
risked, I don't know, 500, right? You
risked, you know, 9,100 because you got
crazy one one trade, right? There's no
consistency in risk. So now what happens
is you have all of these trades that
have a especially in in stage one two
three right something I do want to
emphasize on when you do get to advance
and expert trading your risk does become
dynamic so like just going to say that
for all the people that are maybe on the
advanced side what that means is like
for my for me right now in my stage of
my trading there's days like I will risk
30 40 grand and then there's days I'll
maybe like be at 10 15 grand there's
days I'll be or in trades I'm risking
like 80 90 grand that that that risk
risk level becomes very dynamic based on
the setups based on the market
conditions based on the opportunities
based on you know where my P&L is and
like if I'm able to afford taking that
risk so all of those things become
problematic here but while you are on
these three stages like that is not your
concern your concern is not to be
dynamic with risk your concern is just
to get proper data collection
understanding what you're doing right
and wrong understand how you can become
a more profitable and better trader with
the information you have. And if you
start to allow your risk to become
dynamic during this period, your
profitability or your unprofitability
start becoming dependent on one or two
trades, right? So example once again is
if you risk three 300 3,500 9100, right?
Your one good or bad trade here could
make or break your trading. So, for
example, let's say you risk 300 and
let's say you're you're you're you're
making two times what you're risking,
right? So, if you risk 300, you're
potentially aiming to make 600. If
you're risk 3,000, you're potentially
aiming to make 6,000. If you're risking
500, you're potentially m looking to
make uh a,000. If you're risking 9,100,
you're risk potentially making 18,200.
Now, this one outlier of a trade can
either make you profitable or
unprofitable for the month.
Right now, question for everyone. How
many people here have traded for two
weeks or three weeks, have done really
well, and then you have that one day or
one week where you give up all your
month's profits or all your weeks
profits or even sometimes you
essentially blow your account. How many
people have had that? Be honest for a
second, right? Because I've had that in
my early stage many, many, many times.
How many people have had that happen to
them once again that have gave away two,
three, four weeks of profits in a day or
a week or whatever the case is.
Right. 90%. Exactly. Right. So this is
something that happens and and the
problem is that people start to try to
do dynamic risk when they shouldn't be
doing like this is the restriction that
everyone should have like here you
should not be allowed like you should
have a mental mentor that is in front of
you that's like hey you cannot
dynamically risk right now you you have
to keep your risk consistent you have to
be able to get out of these stages once
you get out of these stages then you can
start to have dynamic risk you are not
at that expert or advanced level to
adjust the risk size. You don't have the
experience to know when market
conditions get better or worse. You
don't have the understanding of
identifying really, really, really good
setups to, you know, okay setups, right?
And obviously with markets, as you guys
know, we have times where the market is
really, really hot and we have good
opportunities and then we have times
where opportunities are not the best and
we just aim to survive and stay above
water. Both conditions happen and we
have to adjust to that. That's why the
dynamic risk element is not something to
think about. So risk is the other part.
Once again, this is something like keep
it keep it consistent, keep it small,
allow yourself to be wrong many many
times. And even if you are wrong many
many times, it doesn't blow your account
or give away so many profits. You
probably will make a lot of money, but
the idea in these one to three stages is
not to make a lot of money, right? Uh so
and then the time that you're trading
the market, right? I think that's also
important. Once again, depends on
trading style. I think this is kind of
an open-ended thing. It applies to some
people, may not, but for example, for
me, I like to trade from like market
open 9:30 a.m., right, to like 11:00
a.m. That's just personally me, my
preference. Me, not not you guys, not
anyone else. And I'm saying me because
this this is something that can be
adjusted. I know people that sit on the
computer all day and they trade fine. Uh
I know people that sit until 12 or 1
that trade. I know people that get up at
11:00 and come back at 3. So, it's okay
to kind of adjust that. But I think
starting off have like that window, look
for opportunities in that window. Now,
because I trade essentially the first
hour and a half, maybe two hours from
the open. Uh, I have certain setups that
kind of apply here. There's certain
things that I'm looking for and I know
essentially what my playbooks and setups
look like, right? And I'll talk a little
bit about that too in a bit and I'll
I'll show you guys stuff. Uh now when I
do all of this what what starts to
happen is if I stay consistent with this
I start to have good data. If I don't
stay consistent with this I have bad
data. Now the reason the good data and
bad data is important is because if I
have good data I can start saying well
you know I'm risking 300 for every
trade. I'm still you know unprofitable.
Um I'm seeing you know it's my win
percentage that's dragging me down. It's
my you know me not taking profits uh
when I should. Uh it's me selling at
every little little red candle that I
see or me having inconsistency in my
entries or exits. Uh or me holding like
holding my losers, right, longer. So
like my average winner may be 20 minutes
that I'm holding an average winner and
then losers I'm holding for two hours,
right? So like I can start to see issues
in my data. I can start to see anomalies
that start to pop out. But if I have
trades where I'm holding a trade for
three months and three minutes and three
weeks, like I'm not going to get any
sort of stats that are going to be
applicable in any sort of thing at all.
Right? So let's all agree on one thing
where we want to have good data. Right?
So this is what all of this is. This is
like take your trades, start to log,
trade in the journal. Uh you know, put
all the trades in the journal. I'll show
you guys a little bit of Tradzella and
stuff in a bit as well. Uh collect the
right data. It's okay to be messy,
right? This is a phase where you you're
taking trades. you're you're optimizing
stuff, you're looking at things that
work, you're looking at things that
don't work. Um, and you you're just
trying to collect as much as good data
as possible and not just taking R on
stupid trades that don't fit, you know,
your your your your process and approach
and everything else. Is everyone good
with that so far?
Cool. Okay. So, data is good. Very
important. And if we don't have good
data once again, if you don't do this
part, and I want to just re-emphasize on
it again, and I'm sorry if I reemphasiz
on some things, it's one hammered. If
you don't do this part, well, you can
think you're here. You can think you're
here. You can think you're here, but
like you're going to spend the next
three, four years of your trading
career, you're going to go up, you're
going to come back, you're going to go
up, you're going to come back. And like
I I've seen this and like like coming
from like being in this industry for so
long and speaking to many people and
understanding stuff, I've seen this
trend where hey Omar, I've been trading
from 2020 and it's 2025 and I'm about to
go to 2026. It's been six years and I'm
still unprofitable. And when I just
apply this one simple framework and I
start to go through their data and I
start to look at stuff, I'm like, well,
you've been stuck here for four or five
years and you haven't really moved into
the other stages, but because you've
been stuck here, you think you're here
and that just it's just never going to
work, right? Okay, cool. Let's go on to
optimization. So, let's talk a little
bit about that, right? And when we start
to optimize, I'll give you guys some
scenarios and then we'll walk through
stuff. So here's here's like an example
of good data and we'll start to optimize
things here, right? So good data, I have
a playbook, I have setup. So so so for
example, everyone here, who here has a
welldefined
playbook slash setup, strategy is
essentially the same thing but like
different wording. Who here has a
well-defined
strategy?
Does do you have it? If you don't have
it, you can say I don't have it. I I'm
kind of confused. And that's totally
okay, right? The the idea here is to be
honest and be totally like, hey, I I
don't know what the hell I'm doing,
right? And and to talk a little bit
about honesty. There's times like I
trade, right? And like I'll have months
or I'll have weeks where I like nothing
goes in my way. Like I mean absolutely
nothing. And I go, damn, did I forget
how to trade? And this is me trading
after 12, 13, god knows how many years
now. It's ancient. Uh and that starts to
happen, right? So even for you guys in
early stages, you have to be very very
honest and say, I have no idea what the
hell I'm doing. I I I don't have a
proven process. And then the way to the
way to check that is you can say if
these are the my three entry criterias
and this is what I'm looking for, can I
repeatedly make money doing the doing
the same thing over and over again. If
and if you can't, then you don't have a
good playbook or or playbooks or setups
or strategies. So once again, good data
playbook setup. So, like I I'll show you
guys some examples. Opening drive
playbook, morning top setup, right? And
I don't want to go too much in
strategies. Once again, I don't want to
say there's one strategy that makes the
most sense. I think these things are all
up to you and what direction you take
and what not. But I'm just kind of
showing you one example of stuff. Uh
instrument, what are you trading? For
example, let's say futures. Uh position
size, let's say you're like three
contracts. What's your max loss? $300.
Once again, to simplify stuff, I'm
trading supply and demand. Let's just
say that's like how my approach is to
the market, right? This now starts to
come into like good data, good approach
that's consistent. Now, if something in
that data does not look good, I can
identify where it is messed up. Okay.
Now then we we combine this when we go
when we go to like optimization, right?
There's like this part, right? So we go
from like data collection, we get the
data also to get good data collection,
we need to have good processes. Once we
have good processes uh we have to go
into like optimization right so like
this is now where we're going from here
to here and in order to go from here to
there we have to know how to use the
data collection and we have to know how
to go and start to optimize that also
comes in with a good approach like what
is your approach to all of this right so
let's go to process I'll like walk you
through a process and like you know we
can we can start to like talk a little
bit about this how how How how how do
weeks look? Right? So process is also
important because process allows you to
d tie in your data and allows you to
identify missed opportunities. It allows
you to look at your blind spots and like
trust me when I say this and like you're
going to always have blind spots. You're
going to always miss stuff. It is not
something that goes away, right? Like
there's parts of things here that I talk
about that I know a lot of people like
even myself in year 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
whatever I was like oh my god another
year I'll it'll probably go away another
two years I'll maybe get get better at
this. Uh no it doesn't doesn't happen.
You just get better at dealing with the
pain. You get better at just handling
things. Uh but does like I'd be lying to
say that at this stage of my trading
career I don't make mistakes. That's not
true. Like I make like so many mistakes.
Like like if you guys saw days where I
go on tilt, which I still do, you'd be
like, "Holy there's no way this
guy's been trading god knows however
long." He said, "There's no way." Right?
So these things still happen. But the
idea of the process is when you have a
healthy process and you kind of go out
of kind of the the realm a little bit,
you you start to bring yourself back. So
what what I'm trying to say with this is
sometimes you'll have days as humans we
will have periods where if like this is
where we're trying to stay in. We may
have sometimes where we go a little bit
out but good traders are able to bring
themselves out. There's no such thing as
oh my god great traders are going to
stay in here forever. Like do I follow
my stop loss or my risk amount on every
single trade? No. I I messed up. And I'm
not saying this to like allow you guys
to think it's okay. I'm saying if and
when it happens, your job is to quickly
bring yourself back in. Your job is not
to say me as a human is I'm going to
make sure I never ever ever do this and
I will be so like disciplined and I will
not make these stupid mistakes. You're
going to make them. But my concern isn't
if you make them. My concern is when you
make them, how quickly you are able to
come back into that natural uh process.
Oh, that's uh you guys can't see when I
type when I draw. Sorry.
Yeah, sorry. Uh I didn't know I didn't
know you guys couldn't see when I'm
drawing. Uh sorry about that. Uh okay.
So, I'll just I'll just type. So, as I
was saying, uh let's go over process.
So, my process the way it starts. And
once again, when I when I say my
process, I don't want you guys to be
stuck with like this is the way it
should be. I think find your own
process, find your own rules, find your
own things depending on your trading
style and your approach. So I like to
use Sundays as like my my my day to like
prep and review last week, right? So
this is for me is very important. So one
thing is like what is what does last
week look like? Like and this is where
process becomes very important where
when I'm reviewing my last week, one I'm
reviewing my stats and I'm reviewing
markets. I want to say hey what has
happened with the market last week? What
was the things that moved the market? uh
what are my key levels that you know the
market was really really uh focused on
and really you know drove towards uh how
did I trade last week based on my stats
based on my performance based on my
notes based on my approaches all that
stuff and like I'll spend a good three
to six hours depending on the data of
the week there's weeks I don't really
trade I'm flat I don't have much uh
there's weeks I'll have a lot of trades
uh there's weeks there's a lot of things
for me to go through and process and
check so this time becomes a little bit
contingent, but that this is like a
non-negotiable day for me where like I
have to sit down. I have to look at the
overall market. I have to kind of come
come up with something that is happening
and and you know, it's okay when you
start out, you're going to be wrong in a
lot of stuff and that's totally fine.
For example, this week, so when I go to
Sunday this week, this week, right, like
I'll share my thought process this week
and like don't hold me to it, but like
we'll see what happens. But my my
process this week is obviously we have
FOMC as you guys see. uh we're expecting
uh rate cuts, right?
And what my thought process is and this
once again like I'm sharing this with
you guys because I want to share how my
mind processes these things. So we have
FOMC this week. Uh we're expecting rate
cuts and I at times like to create
scenarios that I think may possibly
happen. My scenario that I think is
going to happen and once again as I say
I could be totally wrong and I I'm aware
that I could be wrong. I think when we
get rate cuts, we maybe get a quick
market pump, the market afterwards
starts to sell off. So the the the
sentiment that I'm looking for an ideal
situation I'm looking for is that I
think rate cuts are priced in and I'm
not I'm not trying to go too far left
with this. like I'm going to say at a
certain point if rate cuts happen which
they're anticipated to happen and this
is a very big event
the market because it's so priced in and
and and the news starts to happen the
market starts to possibly sell off that
day or Thursday. So like the day I'm
looking to trade this week like the day
I care about is Thursday. Thursday and
Friday the two days like I care to trade
this week. That's that's for me right
now.
I also create this
prep for the week and idea for the week
with the economic news of like, hey, I I
could be wrong. I know I could be wrong,
right? So, if I do take these trades, I
have to have a dollar count. Let's say
20K, right? I have a dollar count that
if I'm wrong on this particular trade or
this setup, I'm risking 20K. Now, if
it's a if it's a if it's a setup or a
day where I'm really comfortable and I
have a higher prob probability and like
the market kind of shows me signs of
like it opens up on Thursday, it opens
up week and we start to sell off in the
first 15 30 minutes fine my risk might
go higher but there's an element of like
hey what like what price am I willing to
pay if I'm wrong what am I willing to
take right and this also comes with the
idea of like I can be wrong,
right? And I will be wrong many many
times. And and once again, I'm sharing
this with you guys not to go into FOMC
rate this whole storyline around it, but
I'm going into it more so because when
we as traders approach the market and
and if I like if I approach this week
with this like game plan of like I know
this is going to happen. I know for sure
this is going to happen. Like I'm so
confident,
I start to mess up my risk. I start to
become too biased. I start to go on too
much of one side. Now, let's just say in
a perfect world I do do that, right?
Let's just say in a perfect world I do
do that because I have a process and I
have written down my notes around this.
I can go back next Sunday and I can say
why was I so blinded and why was I so
one-sided on this particular trade? Oh,
I was so biased. What made me so biased?
What made me so focused on this? Why was
I so stuck on this uh idea? Why why was
it that I essentially wanted to risk 20K
and I ended up risking 50k? What what
what changed here? So now it's not about
the idea here isn't about me beating
myself up. I'm not like my my my job is
not to beat myself up. My job is to
always go what can I what can I learn
from this? Either it can be about me or
about the markets, right? two things.
Sometimes like you may not markets are
irrational. You you cannot justify what
what happened. But then sometimes you
could learn something about you. Hey
like I I'll share something that I've
learned about myself and I still have
when I become too biased in in a certain
direction. I I can get blinded. I make
that mistake even today. Right? So once
again I might go into a trade and I
might say I'm looking I think the
market's going to sell off.
I will I start to look for every
sell-off opportunity. So, I have to
bring myself back into that range of
being able to think from a clear point
of view. Right? So, this is this is how
I start my Sundays. And once again, it
sounds a lot, but it's just ultimately a
game plan of what I'm looking for the
upcoming week. Uh what does the upcoming
week look like? What is my thought
process? And the reason the thought
process is important, how I got to that
conclusion or why I'm thinking that is
because the next Sunday that comes, I
want to make sure I I can understand
what made me think that, what made me
come to that conclusion, not so I can go
in a room and be upset at myself. So I
can go as a human and say, "Huh, what
what what what am I missing about
myself? What am I overlooking? What are
my mental blind spots? What are things
that I'm not understanding as a as a
trader?" Right? That's how ultimately my
Sunday start. Then we go on to daily. So
because I day trade uh I have daily game
plans right I have daily game plans and
now this is also very important uh and
once again all of this that I'm tying it
goes into one simple question is what
can I learn the idea is not to be right
but to collect
data and use that data like that that
this is like the mindset and the
framework we are not trying to be right
especially when you're in like these
stages your job isn't to be right your
job is to collect data and learn how to
utilize that particular data right uh
then I go to daily game plans my daily
game plan start to look from a point of
okay so what is my what is happening in
the pre-market event so if I trade today
which is Tuesday what is the pre-market
news right pre-market news what are
names I'm watching
Right. I'm watching let's say Tesla. Why
am I watching Tesla? As you guys have
been watching Tesla, Tesla has momentum
behind it. Elon just bought a billion
dollars of that stock. Even though it's
it sends a signal to the industry and he
has a new pay package of 8 point at 8.5
trillion valuation, he gets paid out.
Him buying a billion of stock is going
to create a sentiment of like look at
this guy. He's backing this thing up so
much. He has so much confirmation.
drives more money flow, drives more uh
confirmation, creates some bullishness,
you know, uh uh news around it and that
impacts price action. So that's the name
I'm watching. What is my game plan for
this? That's where I start to build
that. Uh and the idea here is once
that's done at the end of the day, I go
back and I review that, hey, I was
watching Tesla. This is what I was
watching with Tesla.
What happened? Did I miss something? Did
I overlook something? Did I become too
biased about something? Was I now
understanding like what was it that I
missed? Oh wow, today Tesla didn't move
much. Oh, it makes sense. We have FOMC
this week. Why did I not think that
market goes very flat when we have FOMC?
All cash goes side. Like we're not going
to have movements. Why would I take a
trade today? Okay, lesson learned. When
it's FOMC week, don't trade. just not
not saying don't trade, but that's just
something like I would look at and I
would start to see and I would kind of
base my trading around this. So in that
in that element of process, these things
start to really really really play a big
role into into into driving stuff,
right? Uh, and then also in terms of my
process when I'm when I'm looking at
trades, like I want to walk you through
a little bit of this part as well, and
then I'll go into some notes and other
stuff is when I'm taking trades, and
this goes this goes across every type of
trading style, day trading, spring
trading, position trading, whatever,
scalping, whatever. I like to set up my
kind of trades from the point of like if
I'm looking to go short on ES, right?
I'll say looking to go short on ES. If I
see an imbalance in price of 4452, let's
just say or around that range. Uh 4460
is a huge volume from week before and
this is how my game plans would look
like. Another thing I'll help you guys a
lot with when you guys are trading and
you're like in front of your screen and
you're looking to take a trade, right?
This thing is like going to help you
massively and like when you go through
this afterwards, it's going to be like
legitimately gamechanging. Like I do
this for myself even today, right?
Especially when I go on tilt, like when
I have tilt days and I go on like crazy
draw down periods, I I I must do this
thing to get myself out of it because
once again, as humans, our minds screw
us over many many times, right? So
sometimes when I trade, I will write out
write out what I'm thinking,
right? And it doesn't have to be too
complicated. can be uh looking to go
long
at 4500
because I'm seeing
um strength on I I don't want to get too
on this. This is what's giving me this
uh my playbook is setting up setting up
good and my checklist for it checklist
is uh aligning right like that like I
I'll start writing it sometimes when I
get a little bit confused and this is
what has helped me is is if I'm going
long on a trade I'll start to reverse
that and say what would make me go short
what would make me take the opposite
trade and I have to give an answer. It's
like prompting chat GPT. You must give
me an answer. So, you essentially prompt
your brain and you say, "I'm looking for
a long to go on Tesla, but if I was to
go short, if I was to go short right
now, what would that be?" And then like
I might say, "Tesla is overextended
overextended
for the past five days. We may see a
pullback. Um, I may say we have FOMC, so
we might get some weak action." Then I
start to compare my two thesis and I'm
like, "Ah, well, you know, I still I
still think the long one makes more
sense." The reason I'm I'm anchoring
with this is because, as I said before,
because I get unbiased, I get biased
sometimes. I have to create anchors for
myself to be like, "Ah, am I being
biased right now? Am I missing, you
know, um, some key information because
I'm looking for," there's a word for
confirmation bias. It's like when you
want to go long in a particular trade
for example and you want to believe
that's the trade or that's the thing you
want to be true. You look for all the
signals that tell you that is true. Like
for example I can sit here and I can say
you know water is really bad for you. If
you go on Google and you ask is water
healthy for me it'll tell you all the
ways water is healthy for you. And if
you go on Google and you say is water
unhealthy for you it'll tell you all the
ways water is unhealthy for you. Right?
But what it'll it'll miss out is that if
obviously if you overconume water it's
naturally unhealthy for you. If you're
drinking like you know 10 gallons a day
it's extremely unhealthy for you. So
naturally your your brain in situations
like this you start to look for
confirmation bias on what you want. So
if you have a setup that you want to go
long in you align and look for
everything that starts to make it make
sense to go long. Right? So me writing
stuff out helps me a lot. makes things
so much better for me. Uh just kind of
shows me what is going on and kind of
takes things from there. I know we're
running a little bit behind on time, so
I'm just going to be a little bit uh so
for example, this is how big news what
the what does the market need to look
for now. CPR report a week, FOMC,
Wednesday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
risk off day. So like I'll have days on
where risk on risk off Wednesday,
Thursday market reacts, we digest it. Um
let me just go through. So here's like
here's like a here's like an example of
like maybe a a setup, right? Let me let
me go through another example. So here
I'll go through this example, right? So
here's a playbook example, right? And I
want to kind of touch a little bit here
as well. And all of this once again goes
into the data collection part and the
optimization part. Now, when I go
through some of my trades, right,
there's a few things like for example,
if I have morning top reversal, for
people that have been following me have
probably heard this trade name. The name
doesn't matter. It's irrelevant. What
matters is your entry rules and exit
rules, right? So, let's just say I have
a a morning top reversal, right? So,
ultimately in simple theory, what am I
looking for? Right? Uh I'm looking for
weakness on the open. Uh once again, I
use orderflow. Don't want to get too
much into that. because I use orderflow.
If I identify weakness, that weakness
will give me a signal to short the
market. So essentially, we get a gap
down day, we get a rejection at key
level. The rejection at key level, I
would have to confirm that that
rejection comes from a place of weakness
from buyers and sellers. And then
obviously if there's no followthrough of
aggressive buys and that setup starts to
happen, right? Uh if you look at another
another one, you get a gap down,
rejection at key level, no
followthrough, price starts to move
down. same exact thing uh relatively
same play uh morning top gap we gap down
see weakness as we move up we start to
sell off the idea that I'm trying to
show here if you guys look at the
consistency of the setups they're rel
relatively very similar they follow a
similar process follow a similar
approach so this goes to everyone else's
here as well so unless you have these
approaches with proper data collection
you cannot ever optimize and know what
are things you have to do accurately and
things you don't. So, getting that part
down is extremely extremely important.
Uh, same thing with trading setup
examples. I'm not going to go too deep
into that. Uh, don't want to go into
that either. It's going to be all right.
So, what I'll do right now, I'll show
you guys a little bit about setting
things up here and we'll start to go
into like breaking down some data and
breaking down how things work and you
guys will see how everything starts to
line up. So like here I have my Can
everyone see?
Everyone can see. All right. So let's
just say I start to go here and like and
I'll probably probably show you guys a
way to start looking at some data and
how things would start to align, right?
So me as a trader, if I'm looking at my
data, there's there's a few things that
matter. Like I always say the biggest
thing for every trader is it depends on
your average win to loss uh ratio. What
is your average win to loss? Right? Is
it 1.2? Is it two? Is it three? Uh
essentially what this means is what are
you making per trade? What are you
losing per trade? So let's say I look at
this data, right? If I look at this
data, there's a few questions I have and
it this all applies to everyone, right?
Everyone can kind of start to get value
from here. When I look at this, what
this starts to showcase to me, uh no, we
can't see. Oh Sorry. Uh sorry, I
wasn't seeing. Please zoom it in. Okay,
hold on. Let me share. Let me reshare.
Give me one second. Sorry, guys.
Uh,
one second. Let me just share this.
Just give me one second.
Is it loading?
Okay. Uh,
>> why is this not working?
>> Good thing. What does that mean?
>> We do have um three people's uh trading
stats for you to break down. Just
whenever you're ready, we've got three
prepared in some slides. So, I'll have
the team pop it up whenever you're
ready. Just letting you know.
>> Perfect. I will do that right now. Let
me just hit the share entire screen
window. All right. Can you guys see my
window?
>> Um give the team just a second. Okay.
Yeah. All right. Um team, you guys can
pop me off again.
>> Uh okay, cool. So I I'll go through a
little bit here and I'll start to as I
was as I was saying I wanted to go over
some trading stats and stuff and just
once again all of this applies to
everyone just to understand. So if I
look at this kind of data here, um
there's a few things that people start
to look at, right? People will look at
people always go at data and they look
at 71K, great, I made money, phenomenal.
I think that's the worst way to start to
look at data. I think the way to analyze
data is to go deeper into stats. If I
look at this particular thing here, I
would start to go, well, what what what
are some of some of my problems? Some of
my problems are number one, uh my
average winter loss is 1.2, meaning I'm
making about 6K per trade. I'm losing
about 5K. This long-term wise is not
sustainable. I got to get this number up
higher right now. What do I start to do
for that? I want to start going into all
of these trades individually, which I'll
show you in a second, and I want to
start to analyze them. I want to say the
trades that I'm making money on, am I
actually maximizing the most money I can
make on them? Am I selling them a little
bit too early? Am I buying too late?
Like, what is happening here? Maybe my
risk amount is good, but I'm not
maximizing my winning trades. Second
problem could be am I following my stop
loss? Right? If your stop loss or your
risk amount per trade is 3K and your
average loss is about 5K, why are you
losing 5K if your risk amount is three?
What is what is going wrong here? Like
those are the immediate like things,
right? Second is when I look at this and
I see max draw down is 54,000 and your
net P&L is 71,000. It's like okay well
what happened here? Right? So, if I go
into this particular data right here,
you start to see, okay, we're up at
114K. We start to have a big nose dive.
What caused that nose dive of a trade,
right? I go into that trade. All right,
-26K on this day, right? What happened
maybe on this day? 5200, right? What
happened on this day? 15,000. What led
in what led me to have this draw down?
And the reason the processes are very
important is because these draw downs
are going to happen, guys. But people or
traders that are have good processes,
they can shift away from, you know, a
bad trading day and come back or bad
trading week and come back. People that
don't have a process, they end up just
going on a massive tilt for many, many,
many weeks or many, many months. And
that's something we want to avoid as
traders. And the way we avoid is once
again by having that process. So for me,
a lot of times what I'll do is I'll go
through data. I'll go through trades and
I'll start saying, well, okay, let's
start understanding some trades, right?
So, if I look at some particular trades,
let's just say I'll give you guys two
examples, right? So, if I look at this
trade, it's like, wow, I lost once
again, I'll show you some of my data,
and this is not all of this is in my
data, but you'll see, oh, I lost $29.
When I go to this trade, I'll say, wow,
I was up maybe $60 on this trade. If I
go to this trade and I want to analyze
it, I'll say, you know, I'll say, wow, I
made $1,600. And this is the first thing
every trader looks at. They'll look at a
trade and they'll say, "Wow, I made
1,600. Great." But then when I start to
go into that trade and I start to look
at, you know, how much I was down or was
I down or what that, you know, position
of that trade looks like, you're like,
well, why was I down 600 bucks? Why was
I why was I not profitable in that
trade? How much was I down? How much was
I up? What was my running P&L of that
particular setup? So, even if I go here,
let's just say if I look at this trade,
right? Let's just say this trade you
made $2,100. You go to it, you're like,
"Well, I was down 2400 at one particular
point." And then you start to go, "Wait,
what was my risk amount?" Right? I I
risked $689 on this trade, but I was
down over $2,000 at one point. Was this
a good trade or was this a bad trade?
This was a terrible trade. Despite me
making money on this, this was a bad
trade. And this goes back to my point
that I was saying early on of you just
being honest, right, with yourself. And
like I'll go through I'll go through a
lot of my data and a lot of my trades
sometimes and I'm like okay well like
what happened here, right? Like hey I I
lost I I I essentially lost 29 grand on
this particular trade. Uh what happened?
So here's here's one trade. Uh I'll walk
you guys through it. Lost 29,000. Uh
right? What what are the things that
went wrong? That's what I want to really
talk about. I I plan to risk $8,100 on
this trade. Right? Like one second.
That's what I plan to risk. I lost
29,000.
I I lost three times essentially more
than what I planned to lose, right? And
what was my setup? Right? Opening sell
off. Did we get the opening sell off?
What was my what was my execution? Like
did did it make sense? What happened?
Like you know th those things start to
kind of kick in on this particular trade
that start to make sense. And then
obviously if like even if I go on this
trade I spent most time in draw down.
this trade spent about 92% of its total
time in negative PML. Like now imagine
you see this happen so many times. Like
imagine I give you a hundred of your
trades and I say hey uh you know out of
a 100 trades 80 of them you spent most
time in draw down. Boom something clicks
up. Well if I'm spending most time in
draw down that means my entries are bad.
I'm taking bad trades. Uh you know I'm
getting in too late. Maybe I'm chasing
when the play is already done. Like you
start to know what to go into. Another
thing might be you held on to a loser.
This trade lasted 24 minutes while half
your losing trades in the past 60 days
lasted less than one minute. Also ended
in a larger than average loss. So like
I'm not losing at this point. I'm not
losing 29K per trade. Now it's like what
happened here? What happened on this
particular day? Right? So that's where
when you start to go through data and
you start to look through it
individually, you start to realize like
well even days when I am making money,
right? If like let's just say I do have
a day where I let's say lost 21 and and
you guys can see this trade I I've
essentially lost money and I put no
setup. I had no setup on this on this
trade, right? Like I I'll say like hey
there was no setup. This is like look at
the entries and exits. It's just messy.
So all over the place I put no setup
because once again I'm being honest like
hey this is a this is a day where I
didn't have a setup and then the trade
after I I also made money right? I made
uh 32,000 and I put no setup. So like
when I go to this trade and I evaluate
this trade, I'm able to go and I'm able
to say, "Hey, there was no setup,
there's no thing associated with this
particular trade and I can essentially
be honest with myself and and move on
from that, right?" And then also, if you
guys want to replay some of your trades,
uh, you know, if you have any trades,
you took PLTR trades, you want to replay
that action, you can replay that same
action, you can go back in time. Uh I I
know we have a giveaway for trades all
later today, but if you guys do want to
track your trades, do want to kind of
have a place, this is a trade I took
many years ago, and I can go back to the
entries and exits. It'll show me where I
entered, where I exited for that
particular stock. Uh and I can just
relearn that same setup over and over
again. So that's ultimately a lot of
trade zela is for you guys just to go
back. Uh you guys can also back test if
you want to, you know, find out
strategies, create sessions, um have
strategies and like, you know, trade
them, go through them, and uh so on. I
know we're short on time, so we're going
to go over some of the trades. Uh
Tori, you want to share your screen on
the trades?
>> Okay. Yes. Give me just a second. We're
going to have the team pull up. I think
we've got three ready. Okay, cool. Um
team, if you guys could maybe change the
Yep. Sweet. Okay,
>> I will stop sharing screen.
>> All right, Omar, let me know if you can
see these. Um, also team, if there is
any chance that you guys have the
information on whose data this is, I
think they'd be nice to know. I mean,
it'd be pretty exciting to know that
Umar Ashraf broke down their trading
stats. Um, but you can put that in the
backend comments, but this is it. This
is the first one we got, Umar.
>> Okay. So, there there's more information
I would obviously need to evaluate
stuff. And what I want to do is like
it's hard to give answers just off this
data. I I don't think there's enough
data set for me to like really be
critical, but I want to I want to have
questions for people to ask and I want
everyone to ask questions about
themselves, right? So, one is I think
whenever you have a good profitable day
or a profitable trade, the question to
ask and this can be wide for everyone.
Was that a good loss or was that a good
profitable trade? And what I mean by
that is if you have a day, let's just
assume that September 3rd this person
made $233.
Let's assume that on this day, like I
don't I can't click on it and see right
now, but I like if you want trad, but
let's just say on September 3rd, this
person was down $1,000 but made $2323.
Let's just assume that. Now, I'm not
looking at this from a point of like I
made 2K in the week. I'm looking at it
from the same concept that I said before
is what can I learn from this week? What
are the things I did right? What are the
things I did wrong? Right? And when I
start to look at that, I'm like, well, I
made $233 this day, but I was down
$1,000. This was a terrible day. What
what what went wrong? That's number one.
Number two is when I do look at a lot of
a lot of data, and once again, you need
to have a good amount of data
collection. I think if you have like a
week or two weeks of of data, it's not
enough. Like I would at least have three
months of data to start to see patterns,
to start to see inconsistencies or start
to see things that do work.
>> Yeah.
>> The second thing is on on all of these
trades, once again, for whoseever data
this is, and let's assume this is all of
our data,
>> what's the setups that were used on all
the trades, were the setups consistent?
Right? So if let's say all of the setups
on this trade, the trading strategy,
there was two like opening range drive
or like morning top setup and th those
are the two setups. Were the trades
consistent in terms of identification,
in terms of entry, in terms of the setup
and everything? If they were consistent,
that's great. That's phenomenal, right?
Uh my other question that comes down to
here is like what was the uh running P&L
of all these trades, right? Were these
trades like on Monday uh September 1st,
the person made $845? Did was that trade
immediately in profit or did that trade
spend 30 minutes in draw down? uh like
what what did that look like? My other
question now goes into like what were
your average winning trade stats, right?
What was your average whole time and
winning trades? Was there consistency to
that? Right? Uh another thing I look at
and I think everyone should kind of
challenge them themselves in trading is
I always say uh you don't realize how
good a trader is by their profitable
periods. You realize how good a trader
is during their unprofitable period. So
when they go and draw draw down, how
quickly they're able to bounce back. uh
how quickly they're able to realize they
messed up because like we as traders are
going to mess up from here till forever
as long as we trade. So when we do mess
up, how quickly are we able to identify
like, hey, this is what I messed up on.
I had a draw down on the 11th $289. Not
the biggest thing, but what if it was
2K? How did I let it get to 2K? How did
I 2K? Right? And also once again, like
there needs to be a good amount of data
collection for for for you to have some
good valuable insights in my opinion.
Okay, that's fair. Um, and as far as
setups go, maybe instead of, you know,
opening drive, I don't know what that
means, but let's assume maybe it's a
break and retest or it's a trend line
break or a trend line bounce.
>> Any any setup. Wow, the next one. A lot
of red.
>> Okay, let's move on to the next one.
>> Okay, what do we got here?
>> Oh man, just
wow.
>> Looking rough. It's It's a rough and
tough one. We got
>> Okay, so so let's look at the poss.
There's some pauses here first, right?
Uh the one positive is is is the losses
are relatively consistent of like max
$100, right? Uh
okay. So that's kind of
kind of good, right?
The good thing about this data once
again is is this person has not had one
or two trades that blew their account.
Okay? So a lot of times that when I see
bad data it's like you know losing 100
100 100 then you have a day where you
lose like 5k and that just kills
performance right so that's the that's
the one upside that I see here which is
like hey you're you are maintaining risk
to be somewhat consistent okay
uh win percentage is terrible so I think
the big question that comes into data
that looks similar to this is like what
are the setups how are you not able to
execute those setups like what is
happening with these trades Are you
actually maximizing these trades to its
full potential? Are you taking the right
trades? Right? Because all of these
trades that have happened could be the
worst trades possible and they're just
ultimately kind of not working out. So
they are managing the risk correctly in
my opinion. That's good. But they're
just taking terrible trades because it's
like you have a 30% 35% win percentage
and that that's okay. The 35% win
percentage isn't the end of the world.
But I think if you have a trading
approach where you're looking for a
smaller win percentage, your average win
to loss ratio has to make sense. Whereas
for this person, it's not even a one.
>> So the problem here is like your average
win to loss is not even a one. Your win
percentage is 35%. If this person keeps
trading this way, they're going to keep
losing money. What I would do here is
obviously I would go through every
single trade individually and say all my
losing and losing trades. Were they
trades that fit a setup criteria,
playbook, whatever the case is, or no? I
would separate both of them. I would
say, well, out of these, give or take,
there's 80 trades, out of these 80
trades,
40 of them or let's say losers or not
even, let's just say 50 are losers. Out
of the 50 trades, only 20 of them
worked with a good setup. They they
actually applied. The other other 30
didn't make sense. So now what you start
to do is you start to alter your data a
little bit. You start to say, "Well, I
have 50 losing trades. I take the 20
good losing trades out and I eliminate
the 30 bad ones. What does my data look
like now?" So what's the one mistake I'm
making? One mistake is I'm just taking a
lot of stupid trades. So if I cut down
my my my stupid trades that I take that
don't fit my playbook, my win percentage
maybe goes up 55%.
My average win loss ratio goes up 1.4.
And once again, this is not this person
isn't going to magically become
profitable, but a lot of times you can
work through the process of elimination,
eliminating some of that data you have
and saying, well, this shouldn't have
been taken. This should have been taken.
And when you start to alter that a
little bit, you start to see what would
your data look like if you did take the
right trades, right? And then I would
look for that. If none of these trades
make sense, then it's just like, okay,
only thing this person is doing right is
the risk management is good. True.
>> And which is allowing them to last for
as long as they're lasting. Uh but it's
still it's still something to go into
individual trades to see what that is. I
would also look at the trades that had
big big wins because I I'm seeing like
two three trades at 250 250.
Were those anomalies? Were those
something that they set up and that that
requires this individual to spend a day
Saturday or Sunday of going through all
of these trades one by one?
>> I mean at least they have the data so
they can start to comb out what's not
working.
>> Yeah.
The question here comes like is this
good data or is this bad data?
>> Right. Right.
>> That that's question like is this good
data or is it like is it bad data? So I
would go into these trades and and
individualize them and see right because
like when someone sees this right away
I'm not good at trading. Sure fine but
is it you're not good at trading or your
data or the trades you've taken or
weren't good trades. Now, if I was to go
through all of these trades individ
individually with this person, right,
and I was to like break down what
actually work, what was actually part of
their playbook or their approach they
have, if they have one, and we start to
eliminate the ones that don't, this data
might look very different, might look
better. Then you start saying, well, my
strategy or approach does work. It's
just sometimes I overtrade and I take
stupid trades and I take trades that
don't fit my setup. Or the other part is
like this person has no strategy.
They're just doing a bunch of random
trades.
>> Yeah.
>> But they're man managing the risk well,
which is once again the only good part.
>> I mean, at least there's something here.
Okay, so the risk are good. Um, all
right. We're going to move on to the
last one here. Give me just a second.
Let me get the team to scoot it over. I
think we've got one more.
>> Um,
oh, and also, we've got a lot of
comments in the chat that we may have to
do this again, but next time you break
down my trades,
>> so maybe we got a part two here.
>> Okay, we we can do that. All right. Um,
okay. Here we go. This one helps a
little bit more. I feel like we can see
a little bit more data here.
>> Yeah, this one's a little bit better.
But also, once again, like I think the
dashboard is cool, but it in order to
really dig dig deep, and this is for
everyone to dig deep, you have to
individualize the trades and days and
see what everything looks like. So,
obviously, when you look at it from a
higher level,
the last thing I'm looking at just to go
where my eye is going that that that
matters the most is the first place I'm
going is what is the average win to loss
ratio, right? It's a one, which to me is
like you're making
the same amount relatively to what
you're losing, which is a problem.
That's an area of impact. That's an area
that people should work on immediately,
right away, right? Um the second part is
I'm looking at the losses, how the
losses turn out. Uh I'm seeing a little
bit of inconsistency in losses. Like I
think the largest losing day looks like
it's 400 bucks. You have some like 300
300. Uh I'd be curious to know why that
400 b $400 day happened. Uh the other
thing I would look at and this is also
important. Those two really big green
days, right?
Was that planned or was that just luck?
Like was that like actually dynamically
risking the trade? Like you had dynamic
risk or was it just
was it just like you you oversized when
you shouldn't have? And the reason I say
that is because two three trades that
weren't planned and that were random can
alter data. And those trades that that
those two trades could be the reason why
this account looks like it's up 24,400
bucks compared to maybe $1,200,
>> right? And like as I said, when you get
to stage four and five, those are the
trades and outliers that help you grow
your account and help you do well. But
is this person on that stage of doing
that? Was that plan was that by random?
If that was random, then it's a it's a
problem because you don't want to have
random events in your trading data that
weren't essentially planned to alter
your data, right? It's the same thing if
you have a big draw down and alter your
data. It's like, well, I was trading
really good and I screwed up. Yeah, it's
the reality of trading, but like how do
I avoid this to happen again, right?
Because those two trades where this
person maybe oversized could have went
the other way. Now, if it went the other
way, instead of this looking like a P&L
of 2,300 bucks, it would have been a a
P&L of maybe even the negatives, right?
Those could have been negative 1,000,000
days and like accounts blown, right? So,
that like just immediately what pops up
in my eye is obviously obviously those
things. I I I always also look at things
from a risk perspective.
uh you know even even when I have
winning trades and I see people have
winning trades my question is always
you've been making five draws per day on
a trade or per trade or per day whatever
and then randomly you have a 4K day wait
hold up time out
>> let's go into that 4K day
>> what did you risk now if you're like oh
I risked $500 and this trade just worked
out in my favor but if you go and you're
like well I risked 4K to make that 4K or
I risked 5K to make that 4K I'm like
wait hold up so you're telling me this
one trade could impacted a lot of
performance. Like this is something we
need to guard real for moving forward.
It's not the end of the world, but like
moving forward, we need to protect that
we don't do this again. We we we because
once again, as as I said before, we're
all going to make mistakes. I make
mistakes. You guys are going to make
mistakes. It's going to happen. But the
idea is how do we have guardrails that
when these mistakes happen, we don't go
on a crazy tilt down over and over
again. So when you guys look at your
data, these are questions. Big losses.
What what triggered them? Why? Why?
Like, why did I have this $400 loss? As
I said very, very early on beginning of
all of this is we can control our
losses. If you can control your losses,
why did you have a $400 loss? Was that
planned? If it was planned, that's
another conversation. If it was not
planned, that's where it becomes a
little bit problematic, right? Uh yeah.
So, that that's that would be it. But I
would individualize all the trades. Make
sure there's a playbook with the trades.
Make sure you have your entry rules,
exit rules, and just, you know, if you
if you spend if you spend a day with
like a hundred trades that you have, and
you start to go through all of those
trades, I promise you're going to have
the biggest breakthrough in your trading
in terms of just identifying
your own stupidity. And like I still
have my own stupidity. Like I could talk
about hours, right?
>> All right. Okay. Um, so I mean I guess
essentially based on the information
that we've been able to see so far, like
yes, we can go off your average win to
loss. The um, profit factor is fairly
important in the win percentage based on
how many trades you've got and what your
average win to loss is is helpful. But I
think Umar's point here is just like
there's got to be so much more
information. We got to see each setup.
Are you tracking good data versus bad
data? Do you have something that's
consistent? Were these random $400 days
actually random? What was the risk for
them? So, just being able to go back and
identify what all of these trades have
in common, like is this a good system?
This is hard for even Umar to tell just
by looking at this dashboard because we
need to go further into each trade and
see. Sweet.
>> Yeah. The thing with all all your all
your trades you guys take, right? And
you guys can do it in a notebook. Do it
wherever. I'm not saying to do it on
this particular platform, but every
trade you guys take, you you guys should
have like if you have let's say 20
trades, you should have, hey, what was
the strategy or setup for this trade?
And I think then you go back and you
say, was that actually the approach or
am I just saying it was the approach?
And I think if you look at 20, 30, 40
trades and you start to see the
consistencies or inconsistencies of
that, you start to realize like, oh
like this setup isn't actually
good. Like it doesn't really make sense
or I can't execute this setup, right?
There's two parts of it. One is like
does this setup or strategy make sense?
But the second is like you cannot
execute it. When the strategy or setup
approaches, you wait 20 minutes. When
the move is done, you get in too late or
you get in too early or any red candle
shakes you out. And these are things
where once again, as I said before,
>> look at things from a point of what can
I learn from this? What can I take away?
And how do I ultimately get better? And
you use that loop over and over again.
>> Deal.
>> Yeah.
>> All right. Thank you, Omar. You actually
ended up being right on time. So, way to
go.
>> Okay, cool. Yeah, I was I was I was
thinking about time. I was like, I don't
know if I'm gonna
>> No, you were doing amazing.
>> And thank you so much for your time,
Omar. We appreciate it. And I feel like
everyone in the chat today was writing
down notes. Everyone was incredibly
respectful of your time just like I am.
So, thank you so much again for sharing
and thanks you for uh I'm getting
nervous.
>> Appreciate it. Thank you so much. I will
be hopping off. Appreciate you guys.
Thank you and uh enjoy.
>> Awesome. Thanks, Amar.
>> Bye.
>> Bye.
>> All right, guys. Give me a second. My
team's going to get the some slides up.
Um, my camera thing. Okay, there we go.
So, first, let's let's make sure
everybody's here. Um, I got some quick
questions to make sure that you guys
were actually
utilizing Umar's time. So, I got some
questions for you. I was taking notes,
so I hope you guys were as well. First
question for you guys, what stage are
you in? So, this is going back to when
Umar was first starting going through
these five stages. What stage is
everyone in?
Dude, I know my team is fast. My team's
good. They're on it.
Okay, I need to see. We've got a lot of
a lot of ones. We've got a few twos.
Someone's got a two and three. Amazing.
Let's go.
Okay, so you guys were paying attention
here. Okay, check number one. You guys
passed. I'll take it. I'll take it.
Okay. And then the next thing I want you
guys to give me a few examples of bad
data. What is a few examples of bad data
here?
And I'll wait in the chat. I got to make
sure you guys got all of this
information down. I wrote my examples
down. What are a few examples of
tracking bad data
or not tracking at all? There we go.
Random entries. Not tracking at all.
Yes. No setups. That's what I wrote
down. No setups, not being consistent.
Yes, I wrote that down as well. My
answer is different strategies. That's
correct as well. Inconsistent risk.
Okay, good. You guys are paying
attention. That's what I'm talking
about. Let's go. Mine was no setups, no
strategy, inconsistency, and not proper
risk management every time. Remember, we
need to keep the variables small. So,
this was really cool to even see that a
trader like Umar has some of the same
like main goals here when it comes to
trading. Variable small. Make sure
you're tracking. Make sure we're
consistent.
Okay. Now, what are some examples of
good data?
What is good data to track that is
helpful? That is conducive.
There we go. Good data, proper risk
management. There it is.
the same risk, correct? Consistent risk
strategy. Several strategies would be
technically um well, I guess if you were
tracking each one separately to see
which one works, then yes, I could see
that.
Um the time of day.
Okay, amazing answers, guys. Mine was
making sure that there are a small
amount of variables. That's good data.
Consistent risk size. um even like hold
times, hold times, types of setups, um
even the instruments you're trading.
This is all good data. This means that
it's keeping the variables small so we
can if we need to make one small change,
we can see a direct result or a direct
reflection of that small change.
Okay, way to go guys. Now, I've got a
very last question. We went over good
data, bad data, what stage you are in,
and the last one is how important is
data collection?
How important is data collection?
This one is a nobrainer.
And while I've got you guys figuring
out, boom. Exactly. Very important, if
not one of the most important, I'd say
besides keeping your capital, tracking
your data is right up there. Huge key.
All right. Next question that I have for
you guys is, so these were my questions.
These were my main points that I got out
of it. But now, what are some of your
favorite parts that you got from Umar's
session today? What are some of your
favorite key points? Um, maybe a note
that you had to circle that you
underlined because it was incredibly
helpful for you. What is one of your
favorite parts from Umar's session
today.
Let's see what we've got. That data
collection is a gold mine. Absolutely.
Someone said seeing the features of
Tradzella, not writing down losses.
Correct. you should be writing down the
losses. Tradesella functionality. Okay,
cool, cool, cool. Um, I could tell a lot
of the newbies were like, I don't know
what's going on here. And I was like,
bear with me, guys. He's on a different
level. He's on another level.
I did I did ask him at the beginning. I
said, listen, don't scare my newbies
away because I got a lot of them. Okay,
but you did you guys did amazing. All
right. Having a weekly process. Correct.
Yes.
Filtering the data. Having a playbook,
highlighting something. It's already
gone. I didn't even get to see it.
Trading history,
data collection.
Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. All
right, guys.
How's everybody feeling?
How's everybody feeling? Are we good?
Are we good to go? It's been an
absolutely incredible three days with
you guys. I'm I'm beyond proud. Like I'm
a lot of these comments that I'm seeing
or a lot of these users I'm recognizing
from even day one. So like being able to
go back and see like uh Mr. Frost that
we use as an example or or maybe it was
Mr. Hope, but like seeing you guys still
here and show up is one of the absolute
coolest things. I'm so proud of you
guys.
But now based on these three three days,
knowing what you guys know now,
are you happy that you showed up? I'm
thrilled. I'm proud. I feel like mama
bear. I'm ecstatic.
Are you happy that you showed up
to these three amazing days so far?
Melvin Melvin do is happy. Let's go,
Melvin.
Okay, we got the ginger 100%.
Okay, I'm so excited for you guys. You
did it. Now, it is time for me to hold
up my end of the deal. The moment you
guys have all been waiting for. And the
coolest part
is more than half of you guys are going
to be able to join part of this
giveaway. It's like a coin flip.
You guys are going to be able to win
something from today. It's time for the
giveaway. So, let's do it.
5,000 of you guys. 5,000 of you, which
also there's probably so much more in
the chat. 5,000 of you guys that
attended all three days are going to be
eligible for this giveaway. 5,000 Apex
accounts are being given away. So,
congratulations, guys. You made it to
the end of day three. Now, this is just
one of the giveaways. This is 50K Apex
evaluations. And I'll give you just a
quick overview of what this is. You have
learned the strategy today. You have
learned a system. Maybe you do not have
the capital yet. You're still working on
demo. And I urge you, listen very
clearly, please, that you guys continue
to remain on demo until you have proven
consistency to to yourself. Once you
have done that, you've tracked your
trades, you've gotten in the reps,
you've seen that you are profitable,
this is an amazing start. But I will say
that I only recommend using the 50K
funded account once you've already
proven a model or a system or your
trading to yourself. But this is where
you can have access to trading $50,000
worth of capital. It's insane. So just
make sure that you have done the you've
taken the reps, you've proven
consistency to yourself so that you can
just get the full value of this. So
that's just one of the giveaways here.
We also have $2,000 worth of Tradezella
accounts. So, you guys got to see just a
tiny snippet of how powerful tracking
your trading is, of how powerful Trade
Zela is, how you have to track good
data, maybe comb out the bad data that
you're tracking, be able to see the
progress. So, we're giving away $2,000
worth of Tradezella accounts.
Oh, but wait guys, just because you have
all made me so proud,
there's more. There's another thing
we're doing.
I didn't announce this anywhere.
Does anybody have any idea what the
other giveaway could possibly be?
I am curious. Does anybody know what
could the giveaway be?
I got to get these bangs out of my face.
I'mma let y'all type.
You guys already get free curriculum, so
that's just part of it. We'll mention
that again in just a moment.
Okay. Okay. No, I don't have a book.
Someone said, "We get your book. I don't
have a book." Okay. All right. You guys
are very close. You're very close. So,
you already get a and I'll I'll touch on
it in just a second, but some of you
guys' answers are already correct. Yes.
But
um nope, you don't get a dinner date,
but I appreciate the enthusiasm.
All right, are you ready? What do you
get?
Are you sure you're ready?
What anticipation? What could we
possibly be getting? Boom. We're doing
three scholarships to my private
program.
Traders have to be hand selected to be
able to even join this program. Three of
you guys today that joined all three
days qualifies you for this scholarship.
This is a pretty insane value right
here. I don't think you guys understand
the weight of the situation. Three of
you guys are getting into my private
program. This is wild. This is
absolutely wild and I'm so excited. The
energy has been amazing. Everyone's
energy. The fact that everyone has been
committed like absolutely I want you in
my program.
So there is one step that I need from
you guys. Your instructions. How do I
qualify? How do I win the giveaways?
Pick me. How? You need to head to the
community. It's our circle community for
the trader in three days challenge. I'm
sure you guys have heard of it. We've
been using it the whole time to make
sure that you guys are updated. um so
that you know the giveaways, all the
details. Um we've even had some fun
little snippets uh where I just check in
with you guys. So make sure one you need
to go to the circle community the trader
in three days section. I know you guys
know what it is. You've been there a
million times. Now we're going to have a
section where you mark your attendance.
Your attendance will be marked here. And
also if you guys have any questions,
we're going to have the chat open. So,
for whatever questions you guys have on
how to enter the giveaway, how to um
fill out the form, how to be part of the
instructions,
uh we'll we'll have team members in the
chat here, but how to how to qualify for
the giveaway. Head to the community,
mark your attendance, and fill out the
form
and then we'll be announcing the winners
on Friday.
So exciting. So, the end of this week,
so go ahead and get your reps in while
you're waiting to see if you've been the
chosen one. Um, there's a lot of
different prizes, so it will be, I'd
say, scattered among many of you guys.
So, the odds of at least more than half
of you guys getting something out of
today is very high. We're talking
probabilities and we're talking numbers
here. And the fact that there are 9,442
of you guys here on day three is insane.
That is absolutely insane. I got to go
back and just because I nerd out about
this stuff a little bit, the retention,
the commitment that you guys have had in
these streams for three days straight is
almost unheard of. I got to make sure
that these if these numbers are
record-breaking, that's going to blow my
absolute literal mind. So, instructions
here. This is what the circle community
looks like in case you haven't seen it.
This is it.
You mark your attendance. So, there's
going to be a mark your attendance for
the challenge section right here. It's
in the circle section.
I'm going to make sure that you guys
don't have any questions. So, give me a
second.
I mean, it looks like most of you guys
know what the circle community is. If
you guys are here today, you know that
all of the announcements we've given
away. Okay, cool. Everyone says done.
Okay, way to go, guys. Now, you can you
can take your time doing it. We we're
not going to be announcing any giveaway
winners until Friday. So, just make sure
those are the instructions. If you do
have questions about how to enter,
again, just ask it in the circle
community. I got my entire team here
ready to answer questions. So, whatever
you guys need help with filling out the
form, finding the right section. Corey
can't find it. So, that's okay. Corey,
any questions that you have on trying to
figure out how to find the form, where
is it located, just drop a post or drop
a question in circle and my team will
get back to you. Okay, many sees it.
Okay, way to go, guys. All right, now I
have a question. After these three days,
would you consider yourself a trader? Do
you see yourself using what we've
covered today?
There it is, man. That's what the lag
looks like. It's about a solid 20
seconds. Adrian does. Let's go. Ian
does. That's what I'm talking about.
I know Lou has been in here. Lou, where
are you at in the chat? Lou, I know
you've been DMing me. You've been
asking, and I was like, this three days
is it. I don't know, Lou, if you've made
it all the way to day three, but I've
been so excited to see you here. Okay,
Brooke, I know Brooke's in here today. I
know Mandy's in here today. I know
Katherine's in here.
Okay. Okay. Okay. That's what I'm
talking about. Let's go, guys. Amazing.
This has been an amazing three days.
What What value. Now, I will say for I
know the the newbie traders got an
absolute immense sense of value, but
even for some of the vets here, even if
you only implemented one thing that
we've learned over these fast three
days, technically these are very fast
three days for these last three days, do
you think it was still time well spent
for the vet traders? Even if you got one
thing,
maybe you relate a little bit more to
Umar, maybe you've got a little bit more
in your system, maybe you are part of
the YouTube academy and you're like,
man, if I could just comb some stuff out
here, simplify just a little bit. Okay,
so Jason says, "Time well spent. I'll
take it. I'll take it."
So for the vet traders, if you just got
one thing out of this, is it still time
well spent? I'll take it, Angie. Good to
know. Sweet. Let's go, Chris.
Awesome. Thank you guys. Thank you guys.
I'm so I'm so happy to hear it. Let's
go. Okay. I am curious.
Would you like to spend even more time
together going deeper? Mr. Hope. There's
Mr. Hope. There is Mr. Hope. I was
wondering where you were.
Okay, let's go. Claire. Claire, I see
you. I don't know if it's the same Cla
I'm thinking, but hey, Claire.
All right, I'll take it. I'll take it.
I'll take it. Now guys, I have to I have
to say this again. I do have to say this
again. I got to honest truth here.
Even after these three days, even after
4 hours of strategy yesterday,
I know as exciting as it is, those three
days are not going to build years of
habits. So just making sure that we
totally understand that I have given an
immense I mean as much as I possibly
could in three days but just making sure
that we understand it. Okay. All right.
Amazing. Amazing. But now you've got the
map, you've got the checklist, you've
got the system, you got the strategy,
you got the psychology, you've got the
proof that it works, you've got the
believability in yourself. I don't know
if that's the proper way to say it,
but these lasting changes takes reps. I
need you guys to continue to get the
reps in. Do this over and over again.
Most of you guys did. At the beginning
of today's session, I was asking how
many of you guys continued to place
another trade after I walked you through
it. And you guys did. You guys continue
to do it. You were confidently able to
place the next trade on your own. But
now continue to get the reps in. You
guys got to keep going. And then you got
to make constant improvements. How do
you do that? You got to track your
trades. But also staying disciplined.
It's it's a matter of just I mean this
is like very similar to working out. You
just you want the results the one day
you go to the gym. Yeah. But you won't
see them until a month later, two months
later. So making sure that you're
getting the reps in, you're making the
improvements when you need to, and
you're staying disciplined, actually
showing up. But now I had two choices.
Choice one, I had two choices at the the
end of today. Choice one, we get in
today. It's the last day. Amazing. You
guys did incredible. But I could wish
you guys luck. And I'm pretty confident
in a lot of you guys. So proud. So
excited. And I could hope that the
replays are going to be enough for you
guys to piece together on your own,
which everyone in the community, if you
are part of the circle community, you
get the replays. So amazing. I can hope
that you're going to take these replays.
I hope that they're enough and you piece
them together and you do this over and
over again.
Some of you guys are. Some of you guys
are going to take that and just run with
it. I don't doubt that for a second.
Others may skip some steps. You might
find yourself second-guing on how to
trade. Maybe a week, two weeks from now,
you're like, I think I'm falling off a
little bit now. I'm not so sure.
For the category of you guys that were
the that will, you will take what I
taught you in these three days and run
with it. For those of you guys that got
the value you were looking for these
past three days,
would it be okay with you guys if I
offered something more to those that
want to keep going? Something more to
those that maybe in a week or two they
might fall off. Is it okay with you
guys?
Okay.
All right. Justin says yes. Madden says
yes.
Remar says yes. All right. I'll take it.
I'll take it then. Let's do it. Let's do
it. Here we go.
Choice number two,
we take a more active role in your
success.
We do the live reps with you, help you
nail the system until it is second
nature. You see that setup, you're not
even overthinking. You're not taking
your time. You see it and you do it.
It's second nature to you. And give you
the accountability to go from, yeah, I
get it. Like yesterday, most of you guys
were like, "Yeah, I get it." Which, as
you should, I broke it down as much as I
possibly can. I get it. Yes. But I want
you guys to go from, "I get it." to,
"Okay, I do this consistently. I do it
over and over again."
If you felt clarity on trading over the
last three days, which I can tell you if
you go do any more research on YouTube,
you are not going to find a system as
easy to understand as this one, as
digestible.
And I'm not going to throw any shade on
Umar, but after Umar's session today,
you're probably like, "Thank gosh I'm
here with Tori."
You will love what happens when we keep
going together.
This is why it is my pleasure to
introduce
the trendline circle. Welcome to the
circle. We got jackets, y'all. What is
What is the trendline circle?
This is our hands-on path to help you
lock in the system.
Stack the reps in. Keep it going. Keep
it going.
Move towards consistent income to be
able to actually Now you guys see the
money. You see it sim. You see it demo.
You see it fake money. We want to work
you towards seeing this with live
capital. Now this right here is going
out to I believe I had a conversation
with Brooke. I don't know if Brooke is
in here today. I had a conversation with
Maddie. You guys are already sending me
DMs. This is for you guys.
So, you will get the complete trendline
curriculum. Now, this is different.
Remember, you guys all just for showing
up for these three days already get
access to the private curriculum that I
have worked weeks for. But this is
different. You guys will get access to
the complete trend line curriculum, the
structure from beginner to pro,
hours of training.
My team has probably lost a lot of
gotten a lot of gray hair. We'll say
that. Or lost hair like
private community with me. So, this is
where we hold you accountable. And I
know I held you guys accountable on
these past three days, but who's going
to hold you guys accountable afterwards?
Now, I know Katherine had a group of
five, so she's got her little community.
But if you don't have your community, if
you don't have your group of five, this
right here is the community to have that
accountability. We're gonna make sure
you're showing up.
And also the relationships that you
build in here, I kid you not, guys, is
there is no price you can put on that.
The people that I have met in now
virtually, not in person. Actually, you
know what? There is one that I did meet
and that is Hunter. But the
relationships that you guys make inside
this community, there is not a price you
can you can put on that.
What you'll also get is these daily live
trading sessions. So, you know, the
session that we worked on yesterday was
at the very end, but I was able to kind
of walk you guys through placing that
live trade.
This part is wild. Imagine being able to
do that every day.
Every day that the market is open, my
team can help walk you guys through
placing trades, identifying setups,
every single day live.
This what this includes is just
absolutely mind-blowing to me and I'm
just I'm so excited.
Real time market conditions. So, this is
like we're all seeing exactly what the
instruments are doing, what the market
is doing in real time. It's live. But
now the Q&A sessions. This is this is
something that I've been wrestling with
and I was like I the community needs it.
We we've got to add it. So, this has
been one of the absolute biggest
additions here is the two sessions with
me. Now, this is very intimate. I've got
8,000 of you guys, 8,856 with you guys
that we're going to do Q&A's today as
much as we can. Imagine a much smaller
group. Personalized feedback from me.
So, we do that twice a month.
So, whatever you guys need help with,
what you particularly need help with,
we'll get personalized feedback on that
Q&A session with me twice a month.
Daily trade ideas. So, imagine that you
are waking up every morning. You got
your coffee. I haven't had one sip. You
got your coffee here. Imagine being able
to see an entire daily trade idea
section. It'll show you where you should
have your lines on your chart and even
some explanations on, okay, I would be
thinking if gold breaks this line, we're
thinking long positions. If gold breaks
this line, we're thinking short
positions. This is every single morning
with your coffee every day, daily trade
ideas, screenshots, explanations. It
does not get any more clear than that.
You'll also get alerts. These are not
signals. I don't know how much I mean
newbies you guys don't even know what
that means so it's fine but for the vet
traders please do not confuse this with
signals I don't do signals to trades not
a signal trader I don't do signals but
this is different this is trend line
alerts so you guys will get the same
alerts that I get my phone will go off
when either platinum is breaking a line
um maybe now I do still have my charts
marked up for like gold and silver even
though I don't trade them but you guys
will get the same alerts that I get
in addition
You guys will get to see my live chart
markups. Whoops, I moved too fast. You
guys will get to see my live chart
markups. So, this is the best place to
like cross reference. This is what my
chart looks like. What does Tori's chart
look like? Does it look the same? Are my
lines in the right spot or are they not?
And then also when you're in the
community, so you guys already get
access to the community. Build the
relationships that you have, but also
tag me. Tag me, tag the team, ping us.
Ping us when you need us.
And now the final part. Hold on. I got
to take a sip. I got a sip. Gotta sip.
Got a sip. Gotta sip. This one's so
exciting. This is This is going to blow
everybody's mind. I don't think anyone
saw this coming.
Oh, what is this?
This is the 21-day accelerator. I don't
know if you guys have heard it. It was
discontinued. We are resurrecting the
21-day accelerator. I don't know if you
guys remember that. How many do you guys
remember the accelerator? Do I have any
previous accelerator students in here?
Resurrection. I feel like this is a
sequel. This is like a Fast and Furious
sequel. We got the 21-Day Accelerator
Resurrected.
This is wild. Now, if some of you guys
don't even know what that is, it was a
program that was discontinued. We
stopped it. We did the last one not too
long ago, but why why did we stop or why
did we discontinue the accelerator?
It was incredibly intensive. Let's just
I mean point blank period. This was
intensive.
Think like a Navy Seal boot camp but for
traders. And I'm not I'm not major pain,
but it was it was very intensive. This
was three weeks of like go go go.
But if we're being honest here, it
worked. The accelerator worked. So
regardless of how intensive it was, it
it worked. Now let's look at Diego. Now,
the the coolest part is I know every
single one of these people. I know every
single one of these guys that we're
about to see here. Diego, which I don't
know if Diego's in here today, but hey,
Diego. Fully learned the entire strategy
and left with a complete tool set to
grow.
Way to go, Diego.
Now, we've got Joseph. Joseph went from
confused to confident in his trading.
But this is the difference here is he
didn't do this in three weeks or three
days. He did it in three weeks. Like
there's just a different kind of
confidence that you get. I know that I
showed you guys the confidence on day
two and you understood it and you saw
it, but will you still have that same
confidence three weeks from now is the
question. Bruno, we love Bruno. Bruno, I
hope you're watching today. Bruno is our
crypto guy. Bruno moved from years of
just mild results to a consistent,
repeatable strategy and started trading
full-time.
Let's go, Bruno.
Okay, so this is the breakdown. Now, I
did see some of you guys say that you
don't even know what the accelerator is.
So, you don't know the weight of the
situation here. You don't know how
incredible this is. So, let me just give
you the breakdown of what the
accelerator actually was.
So, it was a 3-week intensive boot camp.
I mean, essentially, and the first week
we went over psychology. So, if any of
the analogies helped you from yesterday,
imagine going over an entire week's
worth of psychology. This was one week
of psychology analogies that I remember
10 years ago to help me think about my
trading.
Week two is strategy. So now we get an
entire week together. Not a day, not a
single day and four hours. There's still
like there's still so much more I want
to show you guys. I want to go more in
depth on the bounce setup. I want to go
more in depth on the retest. But you
guys at least have the the solid
foundation of this is how we give
structure to our trend lines and this is
how we draw the trend lines and this is
a trend line breakout setup. You know
when to get in and you know when to get
out. But imagine an entire week with me
being able to just go through all the
different setups here.
And then week three is just to see it
done in real time. So week three is
implementation. You get to see the
strategy implemented everything that
we've learned, the psychology and the
strategy combined. And then we go
through the trading every day for the
rest of the week. And that is week
three. So it is three weeks intensive
breakdown. But now how much is this all
worth? What what's the deal here? I know
I asked the the people here that can
take the information and run with it. I
asked your permission. Everyone else
that's looking for something more that
wants to continue doing this, wants to
continue to go deeper, spend more time
with me.
The accelerator was valued at $2,000.
So, these are actual screenshots of
people that paid $2,000 for the
accelerator. I don't know if we've got
some past people in here, but this was
it.
Here's another one.
But we're not doing it for 2,000 bucks,
which would be completely fair. 3-week
boot camp. Every single day we're doing
something. We're doing psychology. We're
doing strategy. We're doing
implementation.
It's not $2,000. $9.97.
$997.
That is an insane value. This is
completely separate, mind you. This is
completely separate from everything else
that you get aside from the accelerator.
Remember the daily live streams we
talked about? You get that for an entire
year. Remember the um daily trade ideas
that you get with your coffee? You get
access to that for an entire year. I
know, Sean. This is crazy. This we're
dropping some craziness over here.
Being able to ping me and my team access
for an entire year. This is insane. So,
the accelerator is just a bonus. This is
just a We're bringing it back to life.
We did some CPR. We resurrected it.
$9.97.
But this is only available for the next
48 hours.
48 hours. Insane value. I cannot offer
this forever. an absolutely mindblowing
value here.
Now remember we talked about the 80 to
90% 80 to 90% of traders that go into
trading lose their capital. We got to
make sure that we understand that
completely and utterly we just need to
work on working we need to work on
getting towards that 10 to 20%.
But regardless,
even if not, so for everyone that you
you're going to be able to take what I
learned or what I taught you guys in
these past three days, you're going to
be able to take it and run with it.
Amazing. Because guess what? Every
single one of you guys still gets this.
You still get access to the private
course that I worked on. And when I tell
you guys it started with 19 hours and we
had to comb it down and condense it and
get it as thorough and to the point as
possible. This is what you guys get
access to. everyone, all of you guys, as
long as you're in the circle community.
So, just make sure as long as you guys
are in the circle community, you get
access to this. This is completely free.
This is just by showing up and
committing the time to be here for these
three days. So, amazing way to go. But
remember, this is first come, first
serve.
TLC. Does that sound right? TLC. It felt
right. It felt right. Trendline circle.
Welcome to the trendline circle. Welcome
to TLC, baby. This is it.
toyrades.com/tlc.
First come, first serve, guys. 48 hours.
But now we're doing Q&As's. So, buckle
up, sit down, get comfortable. I'm going
to start drinking my coffee now and
let's do some Q& A's. Come on, pay. I
got a special guest. I got a special
guest to kick off the Q& A's here. And I
don't know if you guys remember this
person from
from my story on it was the very first
day on day one. You guys got to see
Payton. She placed her first thousand
trade and had her first $1,000 month.
She's in another trade. How's it going?
Go ahead. Just break it down real quick.
Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi, Minnie. Hi,
everybody. Everyone's like your sister.
Oh, I love that somebody said, "Where's
the Payton update?" You already knew it
was coming. Um, so cool. Hi, everyone.
I'm so freaking excited for all of you.
First and foremost, I learned so much
from today, from yesterday. Hi, Michan.
Um, this strategy has been lifechanging
to to have Tori as a sister. You guys
get her as a mentor, but I get her as a
sister, therefore Jesus loves me more.
I'm just kidding. Um, so cool to see all
of you guys. If you guys have liked this
past day yesterday, put a W in the chat.
I haven't Have you done that yet?
>> I haven't done W's in the chat.
>> W's in the chat. Put a W in the chat for
the wins. For everybody who got value,
for everybody who learned something, for
everybody who's just so excited for the
next season of life, all of your lives
are about to be changed. I promise you.
It's so cool to see this. It's so
freaking cool. Um, sorry. Okay, my
trade. So, I have um I've been sim
trading for a hot minute and I've been
trying to learn how to trade for for a
while simulating. I just wanted to prove
it to myself. So, um man, I made a goal
of wanting to make $10,000 sim trading
and holding $10,000 because it's
different. Like when you're learning how
to trade, like simulating, you'll it's
it es and flows. Like I remember like I
would win some and then I would lose
some. And so I made a goal to like
>> hit 10K and keep it there. So um I
finally started live trading this year
>> and um it's so cool. It's it's so cool
to take um the live trading route
because the emotions are so different.
very
>> like it it the biggest thing I could say
was like simulating trading was so
valuable because it teaches you the
strategy, but the psychology becomes so
important because of how your emotions
change when it's an actual dollar
amount. Love the Tennessee accents. All
right, cool. Um, so yeah, I finally made
my first $,000 last month
>> and we recorded it live.
>> We recorded it live. It's on Tori's
account. Um, so check that out. I was I
was at the pool. I think we were like we
just came back from the pool. I was so
tired and I checked my trade and it like
shot up because I had like an A++ setup.
Um, it had three touch points and it
just went and I I'm taking, you know,
multiple little losses. I'm I feel so
comfortable doing that now. Um, because
I know the reward of waiting it out
until I actually catch the big move. Um,
so I made my That is insane. You guys
know what that paid for? A music video.
>> Yeah, I feel so excited to be able to
like do and pursue my dreams by being
able to like make money on my phone.
That blows my mind. Um, so very cool.
Tori clearly ran with it and is doing an
amazing job. Um, but I got into another
trade yesterday right before I got on a
plane um to head to Nashville. It was an
hour flight and I saw my alerts go off
on gold. I've been trading gold and
sticking to gold until I mastered it.
But I got in gold. I'm in the micros so
I got in two contracts. Um and thank the
Lord I set my stop loss because as soon
as we get up into the air I was like
I'll just I'll connect to Wi-Fi, you
know, and um I'll I'll be totally fine.
I'll check my trade then. But then the
lady goes on the intercom and she's
like,
>> "No Wi-Fi. Sorry, no Wi-Fi on this
flight. Sorry for the inconvenience. I
was like, "Thank God I set my stop loss
because I felt so much more peace and
like my uh risk was at a place where I
was super comfortable with." Um, so I
stayed in the trade, had my trend lines
up, I had my safety up, and now I'm
trailing it. And I called Tori this
morning before the session and I was
like, Tori trades, your girl is making
$700
right now in another position.
>> So cool.
>> How does that make you feel? Me.
>> I know. I'm just a singer. I I just
sing,
>> dude. So proud.
>> What? This is so It's so simple. I can't
believe it. Like I'm I'm so proud of
myself. It's so freaking cool. I want to
show you guys. Will it like show?
>> You can try.
>> Okay. Um, so you'll see my little loser
as well. Okay. So,
gold. Ah, you can see it a little
backwards.
>> Oh, yay. Thank you, Stu. Um, so I ended
up selling here initially. I had um an
action line that it crossed and then,
you know, it it like consolidated. You
talked to
>> We did. We talked about consolidation.
>> So, like it went nowhere. So, I had to
take a little loss and I bought right
there. So, I got out and then as soon as
I got on the flight, it like another
alert went off and it was like, "Hey,
going long." So, I was like, "Fire, I'll
follow the king. I can do that." So,
then I bought immediately two contracts
here at the very literally
>> prime time entry here. Now, it's
backwards, guys, but if you can see this
line right here was the action line.
Price broke through the action. She
thought buy.
>> Yeah.
>> And then look at that move. So, this is
in gold. Um, but I bought two contracts
and in the micros I feel like it's so
it's so cool because you're not risking
that much, you know, so it's easy to do.
Um, but yeah, overnight I held it and
now it I'm making $730
now. So freaking cool. So,
>> let's go.
>> And you guys, so proud of you.
>> I didn't go to college. I did not do I
didn't either. I didn't do nothing. Like
it's so easy to learn this strategy, but
you just got to commit to doing it. You
got to believe in yourself and believe
that you know you can actually make it
happen. So,
>> period. Period.
>> Thank you, Pay for the added motivation.
Thank you guys. All right, we're going
to hop into Q&A. I know you guys have
been waiting all week for this, even
though it's just Tuesday. So, let's get
into some Q&A's. Whatever questions you
guys have, rapid fire. Here we go. All
right.
Scooch, scoot your beach, girl. If you
are, if you do get an encore, I'm gonna
pull you right back in. I'm gonna pull
you right back in.
Okay, let's see what we've got here.
When a trend line breaks, let me see if
I can scroll back. This is from
Oh boy, this is going to be tricky,
y'all. I wonder team, actually. Team,
can you guys help me maybe just
screenshot some of these good questions
and then send them my way and I will
work on answering them cuz they seem to
be moving very fast.
Um, let's see. Let's see. Let's see.
I'll try to grab one here. Ah, there we
go. Do you wait until the candle closes
to enter? Great question. This is
something that I do not wait for on the
4our time frame. So, remember we talked
about different time frames when we
talked about this top down analysis. We
started in the monthly, we move to the
weekly, then the daily. Well, I stop in
the 4 hour because that's my designated
time frame. Now, anyone that trades
anything less than the 4 hour, they'll
continue that top down analysis. They'll
do the same thing I did monthly, weekly,
daily, 4 hour, then 1 hour, then 30
minute, then five minute. For excuse me,
for those lower time frames, I do like
to wait for the candle to close, which
means wait for the timer to go off for
the entire candle to stop populating,
make sure it is still cross the action
line, and then enter your position. It's
just a little added confirmation to help
you feel good when a when the price
breaks an action line. So, the answer,
Julie, is I do wait for the candle to
close, but only on the lower time
frames. Great question, Julie.
All right, let's see. Oh, Miguel, also
thank you. Thank you, team, for popping
these on here. Okay. Um, also, team, if
you could maybe make me sideways, can
you put the keep the slide here on the
side and just move me maybe a different
kind of layout so I can just see more.
There we go. That feels good. That feels
good. Okay. And Miguel says, "I am
drowning." Drawing. I'm dawning. I'm
drawning and I'm getting better. Maybe
this was drawing. I think it's supposed
to say drawing. Miguel says, "I am
drawing and getting better. Meanwhile,
when you're drawing and you have a
second candle touching already, is it
point B or do you just call point B when
after some minutes?" Um, all right,
Miguel. I am thinking depending on and
I've also got to try to visualize your
question here. Maybe the question is if
two of the candles are touching maybe
right next to each other, does it count
as a point B? I would say no, Miguel. I
would say wait for a clearer pullback
and a clear touch point to happen at a
later time. I would say you want these
touch points to be fairly separate. If
you have a bunch of touch points all
grouped together, maybe in the same
three candles, I would just group those
into one touch point. But great
question, Miguel. All right, let's keep
it going. Christopher, what's the deal
with margins? What is the deal with that
margins and leverage? Fair question,
Christopher. I will say this is a better
question for chat GPT. As much as I know
you want to hear it, I will I'll at
least give you this information. One, I
trade on something called a margin
account. So, if you guys want to look up
a margin account, think of it kind of
like a um what's the best analogy here?
Think of it kind of like a credit card.
you get a credit card and they allow you
to actually place transactions or trades
with much more money than you actually
have. And then there's other things like
um Forex brokers or crypto brokers will
simply just give you leverage. So
they'll allow you to trade four times
bigger than what you actually have in
your account. So it's just leverage.
It's just the ability to trade bigger
positions with smaller amount of
capital. So, if you guys are curious on
what I do or the account that I use, go
ahead and have a fun little conversation
with ChatBT and type in what is a margin
account. And if you want to get even
more specific, you can say break down
what margin is and what the margin
requirements are on Tradation because
that is also the brokerage that I use.
So, I trade on a margin account in Trade
Station. But great question,
Christopher. All right, let's keep it
going.
All right, Cheyenne, what do we got,
girl? Do we allow consolidation through
a steep safety line break or should we
remove the steeper one and keep the
original for some wiggle room? Cheyenne,
when we are in consolidation, always try
to opt for the less steep. We are trying
to actually even wait till we're out of
consolidation. And this is where support
and resistance comes into play here.
Marking up the highs and the lows of the
consolidation and then waiting for that
to also break out is going to be the
double confirmation. And if you've heard
me ever say double confirmation, it is
marking up highs and lows when price is
just moving sideways. Marking up the
highs and lows of it, and then not only
waiting for a trend line break, which
we've already gone over, everyone knows
what a trend line break is, but this is
just adding something to it. So, this is
why we call it double confirmation. So,
not only waiting for the trend line to
be broken, but also one of the areas of
support and resistance to be broken. We
want to make sure that it can break out
of this high or this low that it hasn't
been able to break out of for a while.
So Cheyenne, I would say wait for double
confirmation. That is my answer to you.
Great question, Cheyenne. All right,
Sarah. What is the number one mistake
that you see new traders make when
trying to use your strategy? Ooh, this
is a great one. Um, I'd say it's the
inconsistency.
I think they get really excited, and I
did the same thing. Um, I it makes sense
as to why it's the number one mistake
because I did it, too. It's you get very
excited. You're like, "Oh my gosh,
everything that I learned from Tori last
week or yesterday is is incredible. I've
got it. I know it. I've nailed it." But
then they want to try to use it on every
single instrument, every single market,
every single time frame. So, it's where
they start throwing in too many
variables and they want to take every
setup, everywhere, everything. So, I
think the number one mistake that I see
traders make when using my strategy is
they use it on too many instruments, too
many variables, and take too many
setups.
Great question, Sarah.
All right, we've got another one. I keep
missing out on my alerts. Oh, no. Do you
have a tips for missing out on them? Oh,
yeah, girl. I got some tips for you. So,
if you go into Trading View, there are
settings for your alerts. You can have
it send you an email, send you a text
message. I have connected my Apple Watch
to Trading View. There are ways to make
sure that you do not miss an alert. Now,
when I say alert, guys, some of the
newbies don't know what that means. All
of the trend lines that we draw on
Trading View has the ability to add an
alert on it to ping you when price is
breaking through it. So, you don't have
to sit and watch. But I would say go
into the alert settings, see if you can
do an email, see if you can do a text
message, see if you have any other
devices that you can connect it to. But
I think that is the best way to make
sure you don't miss them.
All right, next one is Ivan. If you're
on a combine and the max draw down is 2K
on a 50k account, do you set your risk
to 1 to 2%. I'm always going to say, now
this is different. You're speaking prop
firm terms. So for prop firms, you have
to abide by their rules. They have a set
risk amount. If you break that risk
amount, you are putting yourself at risk
for losing the evaluation or losing the
combine. So Ivan, I would say it's all
going to be dependent on the brokerages
rules.
All right, Rimmo, do you ever wait for
confirmation candle before they trade?
Um, we did go over this one already, so
we'll skip. Oh, but wait. Do you add to
your positions on continuation on a
continuation pattern? Um, I don't call
it continuation patterns, but yes,
bounces was the proper term that I use.
And I do not add to positions, and I
don't think I ever did in the past when
I used the bounce setup. It was just
think of it like additional
confirmation.
But great question, Remo. um for the
confirmation candle. Um maybe you can
rewind it. I just answered it a few
questions ago. All right, let's keep
going.
Muhammad, when do you reset your lines?
Ooh, beautiful question here, Muhammad.
So, I will always reset my lines when I
see new point B's, new pullbacks, new
highs, new lows. If we're just kind of
moving sideways, I'm going to leave the
line where it's at. But if we get a
spike up and then we're kind of pulling
back, oh, I know I've got a new point B.
So, Muhammad, the great rule of thumb is
if you see a new point B or a new
pullback in either direction, high or
low, now we can adjust our line, reset
the lines or draw a new one. That's a
great question, Muhammad.
All right, what else do we got here?
Ooh, what pre-market news do you use,
Jason? I do not use news in my trading.
So, I'll give you a quick little um
psychology lesson. Give me a moment.
So when my uncle first taught me, my
mentor,
he did not use news and he had already
gone through the um the trial and error
of figuring out different strategies. He
did implement a news type system or news
type strategy and he found that it did
not work for him. And then I'll give you
some examples why. Now this is specific
news to like um let's say that you're
trading stocks and let's say that Apple
comes out with a new phone. Maybe did
anyone see that? Maybe Apple comes out
with a new phone and it ends up being a
flop and everyone online, everyone on
social media is saying that the new
iPhone is a flop. It's gonna tank their
stock. So, you're thinking, "Okay, well,
we got a bad iPhone. The stock of
Apple's going to drop. Okay, that's my
indication to sell." But then here's the
thing. when when it doesn't when it
doesn't react to the way that news was
or the way that um social media had
anticipated, you have already solidified
this bias. So, you're thinking short
positions, but if you were to see it go
down, you just can't fathom the fact
that you're like, but everything was
pointing to it crashing. Everything was
pointing to it going down. So, it makes
it so much harder to close that position
and change and follow the king. So it
just created um it created this bias
that he couldn't let go of and I think
the same thing would have happened to me
if I ever implemented news. So I do not
implement any news when it comes to my
trading. It is purely price action just
so they don't I don't have any other
separate biases. But great question
Jason.
All right Rebecca. Oo I think this is um
a sister question. How do you and your
sister handle taxes so that you can
actually profit from your trades?
Rebecca, I am not a tax girly. Here is
my number one advice for you.
Get a really good CPA.
That is it. That's all. I don't know
nothing. I get a good CPA that knows
about trading and they just tell me what
to do. So, I wish Sorry, Rebecca. I wish
I had a better answer for you, but
that's not my forte. It's not my realm.
I just make sure to hire a good CPA.
All right. Joanna, when doing your top
down analysis to all the way to the five
minute, does one week data rule need to
be applied? Oo, this is a great
question, Joanna. Um, does it need to be
applied at some point, for example, on
the one or the 4 hour time frame or does
it not apply at all when going to the
five-minute? So, Joanna, it does not
apply in the fiveminut time frame
because you are making so many more
decisions. You are making so many more
decisions that the week's worth of data
rule does not apply to the lower time
frames. If anything, the only thing that
I would apply to the five minute time
frame rule is the touch points. Does it
have two touch points? Does it have
three touch points? That is universal.
That is that works in a fivem minute
time frame. That works on a 4 hour time
frame. But the week's worth of data does
not is not applicable to the fiveminut
time frame. Great question, Joanna.
All right,
Kevin. How do you know to stop making or
drawing steeper lines? Do you continue
to draw new lines with an open position?
Great question, Kevin. I will say
>> Kevin, Kevin,
Kevin, Kevin, Kevin. Um, I will say if
when you're drawing steeper lines, if it
doesn't have a clear obvious point B,
don't draw it. Don't draw it. If it's
not a obvious yes, then it's obvious no.
If it's not a heck yes, it's a heck no.
If it doesn't have a clear point B, do
not draw any steeper lines. Um, there
are going to be times where I do draw
new lines with an open position, but it
doesn't change my trade. Now, there are
times where I will draw steeper lines
when I'm in a position, like a steeper
safety line to help me mitigate my risk
more and capitalize on more profit. But
great question, Kevin.
6 7 8 9 10. All right, we're going to do
four more minutes and then, believe it
or not, I still have another
announcement for you guys. Dude, for
y'all that made it this far, I got a
super mega secret. I got 7,000 people
here right now that are about to have
their absolute minds blown. You guys
have no earthly idea. This is huge. I
can't wait. But I'm going to keep going
through some Q&A's. So freaking excited.
I got there's more. Believe it or not,
there's more. I'm so excited this 7,000
amount of people stayed on. You guys are
getting rewarded. I'm telling you right
now. Okay. So when a trend line is
broken and more candles form, should I
redraw the trend line to connect the new
touch points or should I leave the
original? So vital. I will say as long
as you're not in an open position like
and you're not modifying the action
line, then absolutely if you've got a
clear new point B and more candles have
formed and it has created some sort of
pullback, some sort of clear point B,
absolutely come in with another line.
But the only thing, the only rule of
thumb is do not come in or do not modify
your action line when you're in a trade.
You need to always be reminded of why
you're in when price is continuing to
move. When you're in an open position,
that action line needs to stay put so
you know exactly why you got in.
Otherwise, your risk management and your
trade management is going to get wonky.
But I hope that was helpful, Vital.
All right, what else do we got? What
else do we got?
All right, waiting for some more
questions. Corey,
how can you predict when to wait for a
bounce or a retest? So, Corey, I never
predict if I see that. So, it's always
react. Think react instead of predict.
No predictions are here. I'm not I don't
got a fancy globe and I'm not trying to
rub a ball and guess and read some
palms. It is always reaction. So, I'm
reacting or I'm following what the king
is doing. If the king or the price is
bouncing off of a line, I'm getting in.
I have to see the price get to the line
and start to pull away from it to start
to bounce off of it. I'm thinking we're
taking our entry for a retest. I need to
see price break it, retest it, and then
start pulling away. So, it's reaction
and not prediction. But great question,
Corey.
All right, Greg. Greg says, "If I am
trading two instruments that are part of
two different exchanges like the ComX
and the NYX, do I need to buy a data
package for each exchange in real time?"
Um, I believe you do have to, Greg. Yes.
So, in my brokerage account, I am signed
up for all data. I'm paying a
subscription for all, but if you are
trading on two different exchanges now,
Greg, they might have, depending on your
brokerage, they might have packages that
include both of those. So, you need to
go see if you are. Now, Greg, I'm not
sure if you're asking about a brokerage
or about Trading View. Trading View is a
little bit different. It's um $7 a month
to be able to trade like CME Group, that
exchange, but for COMX um and for the
question, I'm not sure if it's related
to brokerages or real-time data on
Trading View,
but I would say, Greg, for the most
part, it's probably a yes. You do have
to pay for separate data packages, but
great question, Greg.
All right, let's get another question
here. How can I avoid getting caught in
fakeouts? Oh my gosh. When trading gold,
>> we got a gold trader over here. Um,
almost every time a trend line breaks, I
enter the trade, but price quickly
reverses and goes the opposite
direction. A great rule of thumb if if
this is for if you're trading the lower
time frames on gold, waiting for some
additional confirmations to make you
feel a little bit better doesn't
necessarily
it's not like you can predict a fake
out, but it does kind of scrape out the
likelihood of you getting caught in one.
So, it could be something like waiting
for the candle to close. If you wait for
the candle to close on the other side of
the action line, the likelihood of you
getting caught in the breakout or caught
in the fake out is slim because it's
still on the other side of the action
line. Another thing you could do is wait
for a retest. Action line gets broken,
wait for it to touch it from the other
side and then start pulling back. Then
you've kind of helped avoid some of the
fake outs. Now, we're never going to be
able to predict, but that just kind of
helps comb through the likelihood of you
taking more breakouts to be slim.
Great question. How do you measure stats
and how many trades do you test before
deciding what to keep and what not to?
This is an amazing question. I think a
good rule of thumb is just
more so if you're trading lower time
frames, think of it more like just allow
time to go by. Like allow 30 days to go
by because not only is it the amount of
trades that you're tracking, but in
those 30 days, you're also getting to
collect data from different market
conditions. So I think instead of just
trying to because you could collect 30
trades in a day. We don't want to
collect 30 trades in a day. We want to
collect it more over time. So I think if
you can use time as your collection
factor instead of just x amount of
trades that allows you to track data
from different market conditions um over
time. So I would say using 30 days of
stats is going to be incredibly helpful.
And how do I measure my stats? Y'all
already know is Tradzella. Tradzella is
the platform that I have synced to my
brokerage account. So, anytime I place a
trade, everything automatically gets
popped into Tradzella. So, let's say
that I am placing trades with a new
system or a new strategy or a new
playbook or a new setup and I do it for
a month. I will go back into my
Tradzella, look at this entire month and
now see, okay, these are different
market conditions. Did it work? Did it
not? What do the losers have in common?
What do the winners have in common? And
then you can start to kind of modify.
Great question,
Northernos.
Oh, another one from Vital. All right,
Vital, you getting extra love today.
When a trend line is broken and more
candles form, should I redraw? Oh, we
already did this one. Keep going, Ivan.
Um, nope, we did this one, too. Looks
like we are stuck in a loop, team. Nope,
I think we did this one, too.
Yeah, we did this one. Um, let's see.
I'll just start looking at the chat if I
can.
Let's see. Let's see. Okay, there we go.
All right. Brittiana says, "How do I see
full screen for a Forex pair when I'm
doing top down analysis? When I reach
the 4 hour, I cannot find my trend
lines." Um, Brittiana, I'm wondering if
you are using Trading View. And if you
are, a great rule of thumb is to make
sure that when you put that point B,
that little circle, you get two circles
when drawing a trend line or using the
ray tool. You'll get the pivot point,
which is the first touch point or the
first circle, and then the second
circle. If you can make sure that that
circle is on the most recent touch point
and you don't just use it to angle it,
it should help you be able to find your
trend lines or find your point B's a lot
easier when you're doing that top down
analysis. But as far as um if you're not
able to see them, I'm not sure. You
could hit the reset button. There's a
reset button. It looks like an arrow
with a like a curved arrow. If you want
to hit that reset, it resets your view
even when you're in the 4 hour time
frame. So see if you can try that. Okay.
Oh, Brazil. Bazil has a question. Okay,
Bazil, do you feel more emotional
pressure when you're winning or losing a
position? Love the psychology tips. More
emotional pressure when you're winning
or losing. Um h
nowadays, I feel more pressure. I mean,
I think maybe this is a common one. I
think when I'm losing, I feel a lot of
pressure. Um me probably more than most.
a lot of pressure when I'm losing a
trade because I got a million eyeballs
on my trade or on my loss on my losers.
But I think um there's it's it's just
easy to be happy when you're in a winner
trade, when you're in a winning trade.
So emotions are easy. Yeah, they get
like high and excited, but the emotional
pressure when you're in a losing
position sometimes is crippling.
Great question, Brazil. Great question.
All right, I'll take one more question.
All right, Derek is going to be the last
one for now. Just for now. We'll do a
few more after, but I have a crazy mega
announcements for you guys. And I said
announcements with an S, but it's just
one. It's just one announcement. Okay.
How long have you been able to
consistently hold your trades longer
than a week? And do you protect how do
you protect yourself? So Derek, I've
been able to hold trades I think my
maximum has been like a month. I think
it's been a month. I don't think it's
any longer than a month. Now, how do you
protect yourself? The protection is
going to be the safety line. This sounds
like we're having a weird conversation.
How do you protect yourself? Everyone
use protection. safety line. Safety line
in your trades. Don't forget it. Um,
safety line and stop loss, I will
usually refer to them as the same thing.
As long as your stop loss trails along
or moves along your safety line, I'm
protected. Think of it like the fire
extinguisher when we went over um,
psychology yesterday, at the beginning
of yesterday's session. We understood
the importance of the fire extinguisher.
But great question, Derek. All right,
guys. I've got more. I've got more. So,
just stay tuned. Buckle up, y'all. This
is the craziest. Hold on. I got to get
myself ready for this. This is wild.
Y'all ain't even gonna believe this.
You're not going to believe it. Here we
go. All right. 7,227
of y'all get some crazy special news.
So, way to go. You made it this far.
What could it be? Whoops. What could it
be? Ah, forgot to show you guys. Link is
in the description.
Now, there's one last thing. There's one
last thing.
The three days, guys, has been
incredible. The amount of positive
feedback that I've gotten from
especially people that never thought
ever that they would be somebody said
you're pregnant.
No, that's not that special. And no, I'm
not. Um, the amount of positive feedback
and just hearing from people that they
were like, I never never thought I'd be
able to trade. And the fact that they
placed their first trade with me
yesterday is absolutely mind-blowing.
The fact that I have the ability to
spend four hours with you guys going
over psychology and strategy as
thoroughly as I possibly could. It's
been incredibly special. Incredibly
special. So fulfilled. But now, does
anyone want to guess what this last
thing is?
Anybody curious? Does anyone have any
idea what this last thing could be? What
could it possibly be?
H Kelly stayed home from work for this.
Kelly, don't worry. You're getting
rewarded for this.
Does anyone have any idea? Emanuel's got
no idea. Emanuel is like, "Listen, I've
got nothing. What more could you
possibly do?" And I get it. K Latte has
no idea. Rob thinks it's free tacos for
a year. Jasmine thinks I'm giving away a
million dollars. Incorrect.
Um, the free Apex accounts, those have
already been given away. I'm giving away
5,000 of them.
All right. Nobody guessed it, dude.
Nobody guessed it. They've got no clue.
Adriana has no clue.
Oh, wait. What is this? We got the team
spilling some sauce. It's been too hard
for me to say goodbye, guys. So, guess
what? We're doing day four. We're doing
another day. We're not stopping yet.
We're doing one more day. Day four.
But I needed to make day four. If I'm
going to add a bonus day and I'm only
announcing it to you guys that are here
now that you've made it this far on day
three,
it's got to be crazy. Like we got to
pull off something insane. Especially
now, we had to do it last minute because
as some of you guys know, once I tell
you what it is, it's going to make a lot
more sense to you. But we had to make
something crazy. All right, we got to
turn the comments off because um I don't
want anybody to give it away because
this is a crazy. Here we go.
Are you ready? Are you ready for this? I
don't think you're ready. I don't think
they're ready.
We're doing one more day. But what is so
special about this one day?
We've got another special guest. We've
got somebody
special. Somebody really truly special
coming on for this last day.
Any guesses?
K. Latte. Nope. Nice try though. Yeah,
Andy, you know what? You know what's
about to happen. You know what's going
on.
Correct. You guys, I'm going live day
four with my mentor.
I don't think you guys have any earthly
idea how insane this is. You guys get
access to the person that has given me
stupid amounts of value, that has
changed my entire life,
that has guided my morals, my values,
that has been the absolute and utmost
role model in my entire life in all
things, in finances, in faith, in
family.
We get to see and hang out with Uncle
Mike live tomorrow.
Now, here is the kicker.
I have to go drive to Florida like right
now. I got a nine-h hour drive if I want
to go do day four with Uncle Mike. So, I
have to keep today short. I've got about
20 more minutes today and then I have to
get on the road to go to Uncle Mike's
house. We're doing this. I had to come
to him. If you guys understand the fact
that this is how we had to pull it all
together last minute, I got to go to
Uncle Mike in Jacksonville, Florida. I
got to drive my Nashville butt in my
Tesla, which means I'm gonna have to do
a lot of stops, a lot of charges to
Jacksonville, Florida. But we get to
spend time live with Uncle Mike. And you
guys can call him Uncle Mike, too. He's
everybody's uncle. He's everybody's
uncle around here. Friends, family,
family, friends, viewers, listeners.
He can be everyone's Uncle Mike.
But that's it, guys. That is the insane
announcement. Now, I'm going to spend a
few more minutes doing some more Q& A's,
but I know Tahoe, I could fly, but I
actually really enjoy driving. It's my
favorite thing to do. Actually, road
trips are one of my all-time favorite
things to do. I get to disassociate. I
can't be on my phone for 9 hours. You
know how amazing that is to me? Love it.
I get to listen to music. I'm incredibly
excited to actually do this road trip.
But super exciting news. So amazing. I
mean, congratulations that you guys made
it this far and got to hear this
announcement. It's We'll see how low-key
it is. Like this is this is the
announcement here. You guys made it this
far. You get to know Uncle Mike will be
with us live tomorrow. Same time. Same
time tomorrow. But we're going to have a
day four. This is going to be crazy. But
now remember also for the offer for
being a part of the trend line circle
48 hours. 48 hours and then it's closed.
So, if you guys have decided to be a
part of the trendline circle,
toyrades.com with a ZTLC,
which it couldn't be any more of a
perfect acronym, TLC, the Trendline
Circle, Tender Love, and Care. We are
going to take care of y'all. Don't you
worry. um the free curriculum that you
guys get, the free private curriculum
that I've made for everyone just
specifically for the trader in three
days challenge. Any information that you
guys have or that you need to find
access to it, go to the circle
community. Any questions that you guys
have on the giveaways on everything
that's been given away, the replays from
this past three days, everything is in
the circle community. Circle community.
Any questions that you guys have, tag
me. Yes. Correct. If you want to find
out how to enter for the scholarship,
everything's in the circle community.
I'm going to keep you guys updated
completely and thoroughly,
announcements, um, instructions, and the
winners will actually be released on
Friday.
So, any questions that you guys have in
the circle community.
All right, guys. Do we have any more
questions? We'll go for just a few more
minutes.
Whoops. Sorry, guys. Okay. How did you
get the motivation to keep going when
you were a beginner trader?
Um, I was able to see my uncle do it
like in real time and I got to see his
trades happen all the time. He would
share them with me. He'd be like, Tori,
look at this $75,000 trade I got going.
What? Like, how can you not be motivated
to see that? So, I had I had access to
my mentor, very close access. And I
think Chanel, this is also a great
question. I think the reason I stuck it
through is because I completely believed
and trusted my mentor. I knew that if I
kept going, I'm going to get the results
that he has. Like, I didn't think that
for a second that he wasn't being honest
with me. I didn't think for a second he
wasn't telling me all the sauce. I
didn't think for a second he was
withholding any information. I knew that
he wanted to see me succeed and he was
going to give me all of the information
he needed or all of the information I
needed. So, I trusted completely. I knew
all I had to do is put in the time. So,
that helped me. Chanel, that is a great
question.
All right.
What are your best methods for filtering
false trend line breaks? Um, we did go
over this already, Vital. Vital, if you
ask this one more time, Vital, what are
you doing?
I thought we went over this. Um, it was
adding the candle closure confirmation
or the retest confirmation.
All right, what other questions do we
got here?
Life vault. How should I apply the trend
line strategy when price is already at
an all-time high? Ooh, amazing question.
Like gold right now. Since there is only
an upward trend line, how do I approach
it? Life vault. You're not going to want
to hear this.
It's patience. You got to sit and wait.
You got to wait for two things to
happen. You have to wait for the
all-time high to be printed. for it to
happen, for it to come down, and then
create a lower high, a point B to where
now we can draw a downward trend line.
We always have to have a safety. We
always have to have an action. We've
always got to have two lines. So, when
working with all-time highs, if you're
not already in, like Payton's already
in. So, she doesn't have to wait or sit
on her hands because she already took
the entry or took the signal back
whenever she did have a downward trend
line. But whenever you don't have a
downward trend line and you're working
with all-time highs, you have simply
just got to be patient. You got to wait
for that high to be populated and then
you got to wait for a second high.
I hope that answered your question.
What is this?
All right, Wesley, let's see what we
got. Wesley, how many years into your
trading experience after making the
mistakes that you made did everything
click? And what was your average
percentage gains on a month-to-month
basis? Wesley, I do not know that offh
hand, but I will say when things
clicked, it wasn't like a a one day I
woke up and I was like, "Oh, I got it."
It was just over time I noticed I wasn't
hesitating on trades. It was I w I
wasn't being um I didn't hesitate. I
didn't overthink. I wasn't
micromanaging. It was when it became
like very second nature. Like I saw a
setup, I got in. Saw a setup, I got in.
Like that's when I was like, "Oh, I got
this." So, it wasn't it wasn't something
that happened overnight, but I think
it's when the hesitation goes away, the
micromanaging goes away, and the I don't
know if I said hesitation already. I
probably did, but yes, it's it wasn't an
overnight thing, Wesley. But great
question, Jaden. What is a good market
to trade to practice in and paper trade?
I don't get to place trades. I didn't
get to place a trade. Oh, when you did
because I only had basic Trading View.
So, Jaden, if you sign up for Trading
View, they have a 30-day free trial. So,
go ahead and do the free trial. It's 30
days. Why not do um I think the pro
version is if you're going to do a free
trial. Like, you might as well do the
best version you can, but I don't think
you need to do anything higher than pro,
but it's free for 30 days. So, you can
get 30 days of practice in if you just
sign up for the free pro account for 30
days. I think that's the best way to go,
Jaden. But, I don't think there's one
specific market. I think it's just you
got to practice. You got to get the reps
in and you got to track it. And then
that's where we that's where the
journaling and the data comes into play.
Okay, which one's working for me? Which
instrument or what market and which
one's not? But great question, Jaden.
7 8 9 10. We'll go for four more
minutes, guys.
One second.
Okay. How do you choose what instrument
to trade? Um, I had to start somewhere.
So, I had to trade multiple instruments
at once and then you just slowly start
to narrow it down. There was a time in
my trading, I believe it was, it was
probably back in 2022, um, where I was
trading gold, silver, crude, YM, NQ, uh,
corn. Um, no. I don't think I was
trading corn yet, but I was trading a
lot of different instruments. But it was
like I had to trade quite a few just to
see which ones I like the best, which
ones gave me the best results, which
ones
um,
essentially got me the most profits as
well. I remember I narrowed down to
crude oil at one time because I had one
of my best months ever in like uh I
think it was 20 it was like 2020 or no I
think it was 2021 or maybe 2022 where I
had one of my best months ever and it
was in October. It was like I don't know
crude oil did something amazing in
October and I started that was my first
indication to start narrowing down. I
was like, "Oo, I'm doing really good in
crude." So now I don't need to trade so
many instruments at once. I can start
narrowing it down.
But great question.
All right, Lucky. In futures trading,
how do you balance the need for leverage
to maximize risk returns with risk
margins, especially during periods of
unexpected volatility? So lucky,
depending on your brokerage, they will
let you know when unexpected volatility
is happening and when you cannot use
their intraday margin rates or if their
intraday margin rates change. So it's
going to be dependent on the brokerage
that you use, but they will let you
know. They'll let you know. I always get
an alert from Trade Station when the
intraday margin requirements change
because of unexpected volatility. But I
think this is a great question for Chat
GBT. Um, I'm telling you, it's just it's
not my forte because there's so many
different margin requirements for so
many different brokerages. I only have
experience with Trade Station
specifically. And Trade Station has an
amazing I mean, they've got an amazing
breakdown of all of their margin
requirements for every single
instrument, their intraday margin
requirements, their overnight margin
requirements, their over the weekend
margin requirements, their long position
margin requirements, short positions
margin requirements. Um, so they've got
it all broken down on their website. But
great question, Lucky.
All right, let's do one more question.
One more.
Is there anything that your uncle taught
you that you didn't learn until you
experienced it for yourself? Oh, yeah.
Let me tell you about it. Absolutely.
Um, he told me a million times over that
losing was going to sting.
And it's until you actually do it with
live money that you're like, "Oh, this
is devastating. This hurts." You can be
told that a punch is going to hurt a
thousand times until you actually get
punched in the face. I'm telling you
that right now. I mean, everyone's like,
"Yeah, duh. I get it. I see it on TV.
Looks like it hurts." Wait till you're
the one getting punched in the face. It
hurts. So, when you make that transition
to live trading, just know you're not
going to experience it until or you're
not going to understand it quite as much
until you experience it for yourself.
But, wow, Cam, that was a great question
to leave off on. So, everybody can tell
you that getting punched in the face is
going to hurt until you actually get
punched and then you know, oh, this
hurts. This stings. But great question.
All right, guys. That is all I have for
you today. I've got 10 more minutes to
get ready and pack up, get in the car,
and I'm headed to Jacksonville, Florida
for day four. We are adding one more
bonus day to the Trader in 3 days
challenge. And it's with Uncle Mike.
Just remember that the TLC community, if
you've been interested, this is for
those that wanted more, that wanted to
go more in depth, wanted to spend more
time with me and my team, actually
solidify this, have somebody hold them
accountable, have an entire community
hold them accountable. This is first
come, first serve, and it is only open
for
48 hours. Oh, I already passed it.
Boom. There it is. 48 hours. So
remember, first come, first serve, 48
hours. This is a price that I cannot
keep. That is not going to stick around.
The just the amount for the accelerator,
I don't know if you guys remember, but
the accelerator itself was $2,000 and we
had people sign up for that. That was
absolutely that was undervalued in
itself. But not only do you get
resurrection accelerator accelerator
coming back to life, which is just a
bonus, which is an insane bonus, but you
also get access to the community for a
year, access to my live charts for a
year, my trend line alerts for a year,
to the community for a year, the hours
of curriculum for a year, the daily
trading live with my team. If you didn't
get to place your first trade today, or
if you didn't get to place your first
trade yesterday, your very first SIM
trade, guess what? My team is there
every single day to walk you through it.
Every day that the trading or every day
that the market is open, you get to see
it be done in real time. Insane amount
of value. 48 hours
for
$9.97. $9.97 is the price. Limited time
48 hours.
But this is specifically for those. Now,
remember I mentioned there was I there
was people that have been able to take
what I've taught you guys in these three
days. you're going to take it and run
with it. If you guys need more, this is
for those that need more that want the
accountability.
