Did I fix it sending data am I live I think I'm live again I don't know. that is very much problematic. See, this is what's inherently cooler about Rumble is they don't get their panties in a twist. Um, so nice to be back for sure.

And the rumble people didn't miss a Beat just exclusively an issue. exclusively an issue over here on uh, stock market crash dot emoji. Well if for those of you just turning in I was taken down on YouTube not Rumble uh for watching a video about I guess Jake Paul is now doing his own MMA League thing which I know a lot of people don't like him but I actually think the league could be cool. like not really anything specific to him.

Hang on, let me get this set back up. uh uh. all right. oops Oopsie dupsies at least I learned something of how to get this back up more quickly.

Um, folks, if you like obviously because of the mess up as you're coming back in here, uh please hit the like button just to let the algorithm know that yeah no, we are live again and if you guys could like share it on Twitter Reddit that would help because we just literally lost everyone. Um, and I I Want to stream my comeback today? We gotta stream our comeback in two days in a row. Hopefully we're putting in phenomenal comebacks, but let's see. so um, would be much much appreciated if you guys could all come in here.

Hit that like share it. Uh, and share the rumble link the YouTube link. Whatever. But obviously a special shout out to rumble because literally nothing happened over there.

They didn't care. they're like, okay, yeah, reactive and see. That's what's weird about. like this Dmca stuff it's all about like is it transformative content I would argue Yes.

I was reacting to a video, but their live streaming isn't good enough to detect that it wasn't like I was just playing Jake Paul's video I was reacting to his video and then YouTube throws like a hissy, hissy fit about it. Yeah, what could the haters say now? I signed a Pfl I'm doing MMA Who wants it Nate Nate Nate What could they? This brings up a pretty fair question: I I bet he already has to deal with Nate I Think this is all probably for show I would bet Nate Diaz and Jake Paul's team have already been in contact with each other and I bet they already know what the deal is going to be. They obviously just have to give it a little bit of Showmanship I think that's all kind of expected. Um, but the way I see that going is uh Nate Diaz destroying Jake Paul in a MMA match and then I see Jake Paul not destroying, but winning in a boxing match I think that'll go one to one and I think they probably even want it to go that way because then that sets up like the ultimate third round winner take all type of a scenario which just in terms of the story is like more of an exciting story.

um but I bet it'll do it because it's going to be a lot of money I bet the deal like I mean I would watch it ask yourself like in terms of like a good deal or a bad deal like I'm not saying good Fighters are bad Fighters but like a lot of them I would just watch them to see like I know Andrew Tate and Jake Paul are not world-renowned Fighters but if you heard they were fighting, would you watch the fight? well if the answer is yes like that's a lot of money see and that's I Guess the difference between sometimes you have like these Quality quality Fighters but they just don't necessarily have that entertainment factor and you don't know their name and like unless you're like super super into the sport. um and I think that was part of the I guess Allure of Conor McGregor was at one point in time he was a top tier top top tier MMA fighter but he also had the entertainment value which made him like a Golden Goose uh for Dana White And right now in terms of the financial aspects of it, we're kind of finding out that there's more money for you being entertaining than there is for you to be the best in the world. Obviously, either of those are going to make you money, but if you could be a top tier Entertainer and an okay fighter or a top tier fighter and an okay Entertainer there's more money in the form there's more money in, like setting up the story and all the craziness. and that's kind of what we see with Jake Paul He's an okay fighter, Far better than the average person.

Uh, is he a top-tier boxer in the world? No. Maybe one day if he trains and continues to train, maybe he'll get there. Maybe. Um, but I Don't think anyone is running around saying that.

Jake Paul's the best boxer in the world. At his weight class, he's not close like if he fought those and there's a reason he's not fighting those people is because he knows he would get destroyed. But that doesn't matter because he's fighting perfectly placed opponents perfect skill level opponents that are still a good story and that's really what he's the expert in is like setting these things up and that's what that is with. Nate Diaz It's a setup.

They've been bickering back and forth for a while and now that he's in this league, it's kind of a interesting look for Dana White and the timing of it is perfect now that there's a video of New Year's Eve of Dana wife like bashing his wife. um it's just a bad look. So you have like the upswing of one thing, this kid who people want to see him lose. most people tune into a Jake Paul fight to see him lose.

um, he's kind of covering it in the veil of a 50 50 split with Fighters so it seems like he has the back of the fighters and I actually personally believe that's real I think a lot of the things he does in a douchey sense are for the camera like just to build up the excitement. but I actually think out of my a lot of people in this game I think and maybe I'm wrong I mean I don't know him personally. um but I think Jake Paul is legitimately trying to make the world for Fighters better for them. Uh, maybe even at the detriment of the overall business.

like in terms of the business's bottom line. uh, but a better cut, better ads, blah blah blah list goes on. Um, the timing of it is impeccable. Absolutely impeccable.

Absolutely impeccable. but I don't know timing with the Dana White the wife thing like wrapping it up and this is better for Fighters I mean who who wouldn't watch both fights? I would right away buy what I need to to watch the Jake Paul Nate Diaz fight I know both people I'm interested in the story and I would love to see how Jake Paul does in the MMA and like I would assume he's gonna get destroyed. but I will pay to see that. I will definitely pay to see that.

So interesting scenario. but unfortunately YouTube did not want me to play that whatsoever. Me: I don't watch I guess tracks. you're just maybe not the targeted audience.

Um I'm really bummed out because I Thought this secondary test of 30s was going to lead to the capitulation, but not thus far. It feels like HKD is saving the market. HKD is doing it again folks. it is now up 225 percent HKD squeezing uh to the uh, why is this not working? Uh, my content.

my description got all messed up. Let's see if I could fix it I think it should be good now. Well this is a bummer right when I was getting cocky when it cracked below 28. I Thought here we go.

10 more points and your boys Break Even is going to be another Green Day but this is just my luck. Just my luck. as soon as I get because it's apple apple say well now now we have I don't know that midday chop. it's just past 11.

but Apple refusing to crack Apple double bottom at 126 not even touching 126 126 and like some change. So the Bulls are stepping in on Apple and now I'm seeing weakness in the dollar and that HKD is ripping which has nothing specific to do with these other guys. Uh, what's my risk? 41. uh, just come down.

just calm down. See this. Uh, someone else was pointing this out. Oops For some reason that's not on the hourly, uh visibility hours.

Okay, cool. uh. let's go to the two hour this trend line that we've had ever since. The low on Thursday December 22nd bounce bounce bounce.

That's exactly where we're at right now. Uh, so the buyers are stepping in for the now fourth time. they're protecting this trend. The reason I'm in the play is because I believe for has as much consolidation as we've been having if it were to break I think it leads to a very big move.

Um, obviously though, it's been defended. so I don't know if it will break I don't know if it'll break this time. Maybe it needs to bounce and come back down. Maybe it'll bounce and I just need a bit or break it and I just need a bit more patience I don't know.

You never, ever ever know what the next bar is going to be. This is just a game of what's the current situation. Do you like the current risk reward setup? and I I probably should take some money off of the table here. Fuck dude, where am I at? What the fuck is this? What is this pump? God damn it now my actual position is red.

Fuck me from going I was up 12 I guess I was up 36 points Is this just going to turn? Apple Big Pop Things are now kind of moving against me Apple Pops dollars dropping and the clear clear double bottom. Is it a fake out, fake out or real? Uh, where's the halt on HKD It didn't take long for someone to ask that there's bin Halls on HKD people act. That's one thing that kind of confuses me. Well, there's many things within this like kind of like ape squeeze like community.

halts are extremely well defined. Halts are not decided by like a human who's like I'm gonna halt this like you can literally know exactly at any point in time where something would have to move to the upside or to the downside to get halted. The rules are out there. They're public.

People go to the extent of putting indicators on their chart and knowing exactly where something will or won't haul. It's not some mythical random ass thing. it's incredibly well defined. and yet there's still this idea that like oh no, no, no, they like they're halting things.

Um, only to screw me foreign for a fake out. What's up with Dave Lauer's tweet about TD and Tesla and turning off the buy button? Interesting fuck do I need to get out was I just handing my opportunity to get the hell out. Hang on I need to here I'll go to Twitter But I have the Uh Dave flower Dave Lauer Dave Lauer Dave Lauer TD Ameritrade Turns off day training, day training buying power for Tesla Well that's very different. So day trading buying power is Leverage As in they'll let you trade more than in your margin account.

So that's and the buy button is turned off. Once again, that's a little bit misleading. Day trading buying power is different than the buy button. Uh, I'm I don't know.

Maybe he didn't read it quite a way and the buy button is turned off once again. So if this is in reference to the whole Gme AMC thing, the buy button was gone. Not even talking about day trading buying power. Uh, but day trading, buying power and the Buy button, they're related.

but they're still kind of two distinct things. Uh, so it's not like if you're on TD right now and you have like the money in your account, you can buy Tesla Like if you have a hundred and nine dollars in your account, you could buy a share of Tesla They just aren't letting people leverage it. Uh, two different things. Was that a human decision? Yes, because that's up to The Brokerage Every individual brokerage decides the risk they want their clients to take or not take.

and if you agree with the risk, great use that brokerage. If you disagree with that risk, then you go to another brokerage. But that's a private business. So they, um, it's not like a regulator decides the risk that every brokerage has to take.

TD is a private business. It's not a government business, It's a for-profit business And they decide like. And that's true with any brokerage. Robinhood Weeble Uh, Interactive Brokers Tradestation E-Trade All of them.

They do what they think is best and they do what is what they believe is best in terms of their own risk models and also in terms of competition with other people in the market. Any idea of why they would do that? Uh, yeah, it's most likely. And I don't know I don't know TD's reasoning. but if I had to guess right now, it's probably the same reasoning that Robin Hood had when they legitimately took away their buy button of we can't take on that risk right now because we think things might go awry.

So what that's indicating is that TD thinks Tesla could be causing a lot of problems. If it falls, they're worried that their clients aren't going to have the money to cover their bets. Um, when Dwac popped off, there were confusing halts. Then no, there's never really confusing halt in terms of volatility holds.

Remember, see: I Think that's sometimes part of the confusion is that there's multiple types of halts. So sometimes, for example, Mmtlp, that was a confusing halt because it wasn't a circuit breaker. Hall that was Finra stepping in and saying like some crazy circumstances or something like that. So I get the confusion there.

Um, but what we saw in HKD Dwac: AMC Jimmy All those times, those were just normal vanilla circuit breaker halts. It moved too much in terms of percentage movement to the upside or the downside in too quick of a time period. And If you want to know how much they have to move, it's right on the NASDAQ and the New York Stock Exchange website. If you search New York Stock Exchange NYSE Limit Up Limit down or NASDAQ Limit Up limit down.

Right now, in real time, you can find the exact rules. Stuff like if it moves this much and it stays above that band for I believe it's 15 seconds, it prompts the hall. Same thing with the downside. the upside and the downside rules are the exact same.

because it's just a percentage move. it doesn't care if it's positive or negative. there's no difference between the upside and downside halts besides the fact that it volatilely moved up or volatility moved down. But the magnitude of the move, it's the rules are the same.

Uh, could that be a sign that people are over leveraged on? Tesla Uh, I would say yes, but also that's not breaking news. Tesla is one of the most popular stocks out there. So to think that not only retail, but a lot of Institutions Banks hedge funds ETFs are over leveraged on Uh Tesla like I Think the world just knows that not controlled by a person, just a program that makes it whole. Yep, exactly and it's applied equally out.

You might argue that halts aren't fair and like we shouldn't have fall to begin with, and that's a different conversation, but in terms of the market, they are at least applied equally. It's not like there's dim, different halts for AMC versus Gme or AMC versus eight Like, that's just not true and I know, like a lot of like, it's confusing and like you. It's tough because you're probably getting information from different sources and if you go on to Twitter or Reddit, you're like, no, they're only halting this to screw us over. Um, it's just simply not true because when you're halted, everyone in shorts longs, everyone's halted.

No one's doing anything. Um, and in the past they've caught some market makers trading during halts, and because all trades are reported uh, it's pretty easy to track them down and they get hit with a fine, albeit a small fine and they probably should get in more trouble. But that's a really easy red flag and kind of a like a layup for the SEC or Finra. But HKD is moving right now and I think a lot of this.

It's like I think it's either 10 or 15 percent move within a five minute window. So basically you would be looking at this and say okay, did it It's either 10 or 15 and on that 10 or 15 has to stay above that for a 15 second period and then it halts. Um, but HKD m-a-m-t-d digital if you're interested in this and this thing is ripping right now, it's up 260 percent. Um, and right now I guarantee if I go on Twitter they'll be like look, this moves but why are they halting like AMC got halted Gme got halted.

It's very specific rules like I I guess I don't know what to tell you but beyond the fact that if that's like the thing that you're using to say, this is abhorrent manipulation in the market, you're kind of wasting your time because there's other stronger Arguments for manipulation than the limit up limit down halt. What do I use to day train right now? I'm day trading Futures on tradestation, but if you're interested in using that platform for future stocks options I Recommend waiting till next week because I'm right now talking with tradestation to get you guys a better commission deal. So if we all just like wait until next week, it should be figured out by then. but they were all defined just a lot more depth to them.

I don't know what you mean by that. Swag Hammer The duration of the halts on Dwx seem to be longer. uh I Remember on stream we were confused about it I got into more rare set. Yeah because there's many different types of halts.

so like I I kind of remember what you're talking about now that you're jogging my memory and I think it was just a different. There's many types of halts and you just have to find the right hall and then you know the time frame. Sometimes there's even Halls that are indefinite. The SEC can just haul.

come in and be like nope, we're waiting for news. Uh, and it's gonna stay halted until then. Like that's totally possible. All right, Come on, spy, let's just keep fucking going.

All right. Good news, Bad news. What do you guys want? First, the good news or the bad news. Good news or bad news I don't like this delay.

So I'll just start with the good news. The good news is your boy's up 1.8 K In an unrealized game, bad news is I've already locked in a loss of 2776 dollars. So I'm actually net negative on the day your boy is net negative negative if I never, let's just play Monday Morning Quarterback if I never got out of that first position, I would actually be up because I was short at 25.75 I would now just officially be up on the day without locking in that loss. But that's a very poor way to look at it because you could say.

but what if you held on? What if the market kept ripping I could have blown up my account. so I just want to throw that out there to everyone. So as if this goes down to 20 or 38 18 right where my cursor is right now. Or maybe a better way to.

Oh wait, fuck, you guys aren't seeing what I'm seeing. Sorry, here's proof of what's going on. Um, so negative news: I've locked in a loss of 2776 but I'm currently up 2.1 so uh, not as bad as it seems. My initial short that got me that loss was right here and as you can see if I held it the whole time I would finally be positive on the day, but that's a very poor way to look at it because in this bounce, my question is, what if it just ripped that entire time? What if we were still ripping I'd blow up my entire account.

So this is what happens. This was a systematic trade that I just took too big of a size on. but because I took that size I wanted to keep my size now consistent just so it's like one to one Apples to Apples So I re-entered right when the system told me to again and I'm not back to break even. But I'm getting there like and if this gets down to 38 18 right where my cursor is, we're going to be all Bueno So calm, cool, collected.

Don't want to go until the way I did yesterday. Uh I think we just tagged a new intraday low and all we have to do from here: 38 20 Okay, I want to save that and then I also want to put a new alert at 38.18 ADD alert. Okay, we have the two alerts Uh, 3820 could be actually very, very bad. A snap of the region of 3810 to 3820.

Once again, this is for the S P 500. I Choose to trade in the Futures Market You could trade SPX You could trade Sby. You could trade whatever you want. You just have to find the equivalent levels, but it's going to be moving the exact same.

What I'm talking about is if you look at my chart these charts right here. they look the exact same because they are the exact same. The only difference is their numbers. This is the S P 500 for the Futures Market This is an ETF tracking the S P 500 and SPX is the S P 500.

So the numbers are off by whatever multiple. but if you look at the bars, they're all exactly the same because you're trading exactly the same thing. so you might have to change the numbers ever so slightly. But really, I'm just like you're looking at the same stuff here.

Um, just want to throw that out there. Anyway, back to what we had here. Um, so I would love for Apple the crater below 126 because I think that's the last thing really keeping the Spy up? Uh, but more importantly I want to see the snap between just that region this uh 3820 to 3810 region right here this 10 point. This is uh, what I would argue is the final stand I Don't know if it's going to crack I Actually don't know much in this life, but I can at least tell you what I'm watching for.

Uh, let's do do do do do do All right. Let's make this white all right. That's what. I'm watching this region roughly right here.

the this is custard. Last Stand I Think if this goes I think we have a pretty big sell-off Uh, at least that's my prediction. Maybe I'm right, Maybe I'm wrong. This is my humble opinion on the situation and we'll see how it all ends up playing out.

We'll see if I'm right, we'll see if I'm wrong. In the meantime, we can see the fireworks in HKD currently up 250 watching the dollar even though I probably shouldn't because then it hasn't given me any useful information. on the day Oxy's Green today which is dope I'm still invested in Oxy I'm underwater on it I'm in around 68 plus or minus. 50 cents on that.

uh s I is now ooh s-i is crumbling. Holy cow, are any of you in here Short? uh, someone is there a reason why you trade spy instead of QQQ Um, not particularly. Uh. on the Futures Market the NASDAQ cost even more money.

so if anything, it's a function of my account size. Uh, it's just it costs more money. You need quite a bit more leverage. It moves in a much more volatile manner on the Futures Market Uh, and since I'm biased towards the Futures Market because there's no pattern day trading and I like the leverage I like the excessive amount of Leverage I Just don't like that much leverage.

Um, but no. I I'll trade the cues I have traded the cues I Just need to build my account back up to that level. Uh, someone showed in SI that's sick. Let's set this short.

Yeah, it's got a 1050 expiration tomorrow in Si. Dude, you are crushing it. Good for you man. I Hope you had that earlier than today.

Wait wildly calm. Are you the person who gave me the sports Fest Who gave me the sports Fest yesterday because you are no longer my sports betting Guru Someone yesterday told me to take the Cavs Sons over and I think the over it was around 217. dude they weren't even close. It was a bunch of like I don't know they were scoring as much as a bunch of like elementary girls would score a while ago.

that was me. LOL Sorry about that. Well what's your bounce back now now that you got your one bad prediction out? Uh Sun's got good D Bro Horrible bet. Well why didn't you tell me that? Envy Well, your name is literally MVP Sports I Watched the game and knew it was bad in the first quarter.

Uh, it happens. It happens. It happens. It happens.

Come on. HKD Turning you have apple flat. Not doing too much. it's just dude.

we're what's with these bounce backs. It's just refusing to give up. just die already. The earlier it dies, the worse it can die.

Which means I could potentially make more money. And then this also brings up the very fair question of in this: we're not even that close. I'm a hesitant to talk about it because I don't want to get the cart before the horse. What I was going to say is in the scenario that the market does drop to this level 38.18 which is important because that's where I could be break even on the day.

get myself out of this 2.7 thousand dollar hole. In the scenario that we dropped to that level, do I take it and just go break even and be like oh good or do I like let it ride or do I do something in the middle because I do have three contracts so I could peel off some Maybe I know I should at least peel off one I feel like it'd be silly like at minimum I don't want to ride the full position because I'm not happy with the amount of Leverage uh definitely not dude and now it's bouncing again I just I just can't catch a break here man. just no break is being caught. All right.

So for sure I'm gonna take off one at three eight one five three eight one five I Already put in the order if it falls to there I'm not going to carry all three contracts I have three contracts I'd prefer to have one. so I'm definitively going to drop one at Three Eight One Five. Which means my break, even on the other one, would be brought up to three, Eight Two One and then the original would still sit at Three Eight One eight. Um.

I Just these bounces: Volatility. Volatility. Volatility. Volatility is HKD I mean it might be the end of the move I Have no idea.

but I Also, don't think that taking a breather after a 113 intraday move is that crazy. It could be either I I don't have a strong opinion on this being the end of the move or literally just. I mean it hasn't even had that many red bars today. Uh, 118 intraday move? That's crazy.

That's crazy. What do we have going on? Just in Ukraine rejects Russia's proposal for a temporary Orthodox Christmas ceasefire Ukraine rejected it. They're like, no, we want war, we want war. Stop complaining about big cities being too expensive.

You can rent this three-bedroom apartment in Grand Rapids Michigan for just 375 a month. Uh, highly doubt it. And also this is Miami I'm pretty sure isn't this Miami This is probably like 50k a month. Whoa, it's about to go down I Would love to eat one of those roast beef sandwiches.

How to figure out the NFL schedule and conflict? Oh, I'm kind of personally interested in that. How are they going to figure out the game between the Bills and the Bengals Is it just not going to be played? Is there like Nope. We'll skip it and just they play one less game. Is that the scenario? All right? Hot Boy Walk.

Uh, number three real quick. This will be brief. I'm just trying to think that tomorrow Hamlin situation. Every day we're getting good news.

Uh, positive signs and everything is awesome. Uh, prayers up Still for him. The Bills the most affected and I know it's like taboo to talk about what to do in the NFL but you know sounds like he's doing good and the only Equitable thing that I can come up with is everybody involved with the Bills. last week, whoever they're playing this week just wins.

So the Bills get a win. The Bengals get a win. Whoever they're playing this week gets a win. Um, you can't not play because they look at how do you do that.

That's tough after concert in football right now. Get ready for the playoffs and that's just how it is. They could have been playing anybody. So for these two games, just call them both dubs for the Bills and the team they're playing this about.

Humanity Uh, it's a Once In A Million situation. All we care about is tomorrow getting healthy. The Bills should not be concentrating on football this week, so just give them a win. Uh, last week Bengals Give them a win, Give everybody playing the bills a win and move on and that's how you solve this situation.

Not not bad. I Don't think that's the worst. Play out in this scenario is like you just say yeah yeah, add a win to everyone I mean if the game is not played, you kind of have to give the Bengals a win because they were winning the game when it stopped. So if we're just looking at purely like the sports side of it which I know is literally not important at all in the scenario I get that but doesn't football? oh shit should I just get out of this right now.

Take my current money. Where do I hold do I cut this hang on I'm my finger is on the trigger here for this position. oh brother I'm in at 37.75 it's trading at 30. I Don't like this recapture of 30.

remember how I kept talking about that 30 31 level. but I do also understand this has just been getting lower and lower and lower. So maybe this is just the natural bounce. So I'm trying to.

This is what happens when you just play with too much size. Is you're forced into bad positions that you can't lit breathe? You can't let breathe. Um, this particular five minute bar has two minutes and 44 seconds left. Maybe I Just wait for the five minute bar.

Come on, just crater on me. Crater crater Creator Creator Creator uh where was I Oh okay, I am by no means some sort of uh expert NFL Guru but I think with Dave Portnoy from Barstool just said is not that crazy. You can't not give the Bengals a win because they were winning when the game was stopped. And in terms of the bills like I also see what he's saying I'm like dude like their mind is on their team, their family, their teammate who is unfortunately still in the hospital.

like do we really expect them to play like I don't know, that's tough and also I mean Goodell is a bit of a douchebag. so I don't know what is the most Fair no he's wrong. Well what do you think it should be then that's a different issue. So it sucks if you're a Kansas City fan so this would screw would.

If the Bills and the Bengals both got to win, would it screw over like I don't know where we're at in like the playoff schedule of who's playing in and who's doing that like that type of a thing? Push the playoffs or give the Bengals the win. Maybe a tie between the two teams? It screws over many other teams. Okay, so would it be more fair to push the Super Bowl and the playoffs back by a week and just have the Bengals and the Bills play like in an off week like shift the entire schedule back which I'm assuming would have vast financial implications just with like advertisers and TV rights. But like let's say that the scheduling wasn't an issue.

would that be more fair of like you delay everything by a week and on that week you let the Bills and the Bengals play so they they still play I I Guess I assume it would just be the biggest issues like talking about like scheduling and air rights and ads and all that stuff. No, because everyone in the league would get a free bye week? Yeah, but that seems to be less problematic than other people not even getting a chance to like. at least people played. I Mean at a certain point like you know, it's not going to be perfect, that's not gonna.

Obviously that will not be perfect. Hey um I got a text from Lauer asking me something we're talking about Mmtlp. Oh, trading in the first place? well I hope HH HKD Taking a little bit of a breather SI Getting a little bit of a bounce but I think this thing keeps going down if you go out far enough in time. I think I think it's only a matter of time before s S I go sub 10, sub 750 sub five like I think S I If this is the start of the end for it, it probably won't happen today.

could happen today I don't think it'll happen today. All right. shit was I supposed to get out of that? No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no like if I look at this. Okay, so I look at the one minute and I'm like that's not good.

uh oh it's going against me. not cool and I'm basing that on my entry which is not that far away because I look at it I'm like oh wow like I need the money to help even a bit with my drawdown. but then I look at the 15 minute and I get what's going on here I'm like okay, it goes green, red green, red green, red green. So if the pattern continues from 10, the next one should just inherently be red, right? I actually didn't notice that pattern until this exact moment.

What is this one high is all right? What I need to do just to settle my own nerves on this scenario is I'm moving my stop loss to 35. remember I'm in at 37.75 and since I'm short, that's guaranteeing a profit of 400. So even if this pops on me right now, I'm helping my loss on the day which will bring my laws from let's just call 2.8k 2.7 and some change 2.8 down to 2.4 Um which obviously I would love to just be positive, but it is what it is. So I just moved my stop and I don't know how this is gonna go team.

my stop is now right here at 35 right where my cursor is which I don't know like this just sucks I feel like this is getting into the scenario that I was already in this morning where if I just if you hold it, it's gonna go that way like I just need more time especially because we're in that midday shop but this is where we are I need to protect my account like I can't risk this going above 38. I I just can't I can't lose more money if anything I need to do like slugs of making 500 back like 500 500 500 even if I do three of those that cuts my loss on the day in half. and if I could catch a big Trend awesome but there might not be a big Trend today, that's totally possible. Totally totally possible I guess we could watch this right now knowing that I get filled at 35 which is it just hit 34? So I mean chances are I'm about to get dinged and taken out, but hey, it's positive.

Maybe I'll get lucky. maybe it'll turn, but the times where you're like oh maybe it'll turn right before my risk at doesn't really tend to work like it can work that way, but it's just that's not something I would Bank on um Apple's picking up I don't like that Apple's showing some strength trying to get back above 127. Um, what? I See here is once again the Bulls are defending this key key area this extremely important area ever since Monday December 19th they are once again defending this area of three eight two five three eight two five three eight three eight two Oh three eight two five. That region is for whatever reason I Don't make up the rules, but the bull Camp has decided to defend this level to a crazy crazy order filled I just got filled so I locked in 400 on that.

Unfortunately, I was up considerably more. But it is what it is. It is what it is. You know, for as much as these Bulls are defending it, order filled I'm now long if they can defend it that much and obviously my risk is that recent low.

so well-defined risk at 22.. So I am now long at 35.25 and what I'm looking for is literally just a trend to play out. As I said early this morning, even before the market opened, I'm not failing bullish I'm not feeling bearish I just am attempting to take whatever trend is like and I'm I'm hoping there is a big Trend um for much of today I don't know I'm just the fact that we bounced here twice. like maybe I could get a pop-up to 41.

Maybe there could be a pop-up to 53 I don't know all all I can tell you is what's played out historically. Obviously I have no clue what's about to happen, but all I see is defense of 20 25 and who knows. maybe it's just the bouncing balls bouncing less and less and less. and maybe it's going to get cratered like that's totally totally 100 possible.

but I don't know. I Also, I'm not I'm not in the biggest fan of the time, but all I know is I'm looking for a big Trend move to happen today or tomorrow and I want to be in that Trend So wherever I see the potential of a trend reversal I want to hop into it because I'm hoping that the chop like what you just saw which fortunately that was actually still the gain. I'm hoping that whatever the big Trend move is outweighs all the losses from chop. so we'll see how it goes.

And anyway, so um, my first two trades of the day were short. The first one messed me up, the second one was a small gain and now I'm long at three five two five three five two five. So I'll move this up to three five if those, uh, three five two five. uh if it and re this number right here.

36.5 The reason it's red because it was yesterday's low. so it broke below yesterday's low. It tried to get above it. Uh so at first it was a fake out breakdown.

then it popped, then they pushed it below it again. and now the question is, will it be able to get above? uh 36.50 I Would have more confidence in this play in the current direction of maybe this is the big Trend if it gets above 42. I'm looking for a break above 42. which I guess we could set an alert for at alert and other than that, it's in the hands of the stock market gods HKD may be coming back.

What did I say I was in it I'm in a three, five, two five, two five. All right. we could at least go to the five to see. All right.

Cool, we're back at it Apple Ripped came down one, two, double bottomed, higher low trying to break out here I don't know maybe this is the thing leading the way for the Spy but when I see that much defense, it makes me a little optimistic. But once again my thoughts opinions, uh, technical support resistance aside I'm just sticking with the system like so I guess sometimes I'm here ruminating on like okay I see this I see that but once again. uh, really. what I'm seeing here is just that the system told me to not only get out of the short, but to go long.

So um, I hope it works out. but once again, I'm just testing out a system. Uh, you have 12K shares of mulling turning points Studio Are you investing in Mullen Are you just hope? like hoping for a trade here? I mean that's a lot of Mullen and I hope I Obviously hope you make money on it. but I just want everyone to be aware that I am of the opinion Mullen is not a Sound Investment not a Sound Investment Very different from a trade.

Your average is at 70 cents. Uh oh so you've been in it for a while then like since. like the last crazy push or something Apple's going. Is that going to lead the way? Tesla's coming back around Microsoft is not Tesla's looking good Amazon looking having a little bit of life to it.

So Tesla and Apple are picking up. let's see how long it lasts HKD it is I also have 12K AMC so not the best track record. What's your deal with uh doing 12K you just like 12K slugs. Whatever it is you're like I don't really care about the money I Just like having 12 000 shares.

That's a lot of shares. That's a lot. A lot of shares. My average was 75 and it went to five so it went down 20 cents a little.

not a Sound Investment Uh, what is your opinion on volume price analysis? It's useful to know where most people are in, so you could look at the volume profile, the side histogram. you could look at something like a book map. It's good. like I Don't think It's the end-all be-all but I think it's a useful tool to know on whatever time frame you're paying attention to where people on that time frame are positioned like on the day are most people underwater right now on the Spy or did a lot of volume go through um like at the bottoms and the Bulls are when like or you could look at V-wop I mean it's a tool and like many Tools in this game of training, it's like it's never ever perfect.

If you're looking for the perfect indicator, the perfect tool, it simply does not exist. and I don't think it ever will exist. Um, but it could give you good indications. Fuck.

I'm noticing a horrific pattern of with my current strategy and maybe this needs to be improved because it is rudimentary. but uh, the rudimentaries like I feel as soon as I get in and get out. Maybe the getting out is fine, but the getting in at that very short period of time like I said I'm in at 35 25. So I got out of my short on this push and then I went long.

So I'm fine with that exit because if it keeps ripping I don't want to be involved in that. but in terms of actually going long I feel like if I go long I'm top ticking and if I go short I'm bottom ticking because yesterday we saw two different bottom ticks when I went short, today we saw a bottom tick going short and now a top tick going long. So like two days of trading and my entries are just not what they need to be. So I think I need to add separate filter on uh to almost like a signal of look to go long and then you like the signal I'm using to go long right now I think that should be a signal to look to go long and then use another smaller time frame.

Entry is kind of my vibe. Uh, when you day trade, how far out do your contracts expire typically Futures contracts in the S P 500 expire every quarter so every three months like it's I I think you're applying like your knowledge of options to Futures and you shouldn't be doing that. Um, they're both called contracts, but they're very different types of contracts. Um, so for example, the way options have Greeks like your Delta your Theta your gamma your row.

um, that doesn't exist in the world of Futures Trading They're called contracts because they're derivative contracts kind of the way options are derivative contracts. but that's just like a high level umbrella term. The contracts themselves are wildly wildly different. Thank you dude.

Fuck well. at least I was kind of right about when I was joking. when I was like green. Red green, Red green red green red it is red.

Unfortunately, that happened after it showed some decent strength. ugh. Before of like my argument when I was like okay, why did I go short on the last one that I just made a little bit of money on. remember we were looking at the five minute chart I was like okay, here's the first Wick we've seen in a while that it was actually a new low.

so it was potentially the change of trend. Well that's what I'm seeing right here is like look at all these Wicks look at the high, lower, high, lower high, lower high, lower, high, lower, high, lower high and then here on the 1145 bar. this is the first bar we've seen in a while that actually exceeded like we made a new high like so potentially a change of trend. What is the opposite of Divergence like price, action going lower but RSI and Macd going higher.

Is that just normal weakness or is that a name for it? uh is called hidden Divergence which you might be thinking isn't the best name and I agree with you. um but it's called hidden Divergence so if you're trying to look more into it, if you want to search Macd or RSI the term you'd want to be searching is hidden Divergence I Haven't bought anything except for HKD and weeks van whiskey. That's kind of funny I Like that someone needs to talk to the naming Department We'll call it the official naming Department Like what are you doing guys, that doesn't make any sense. Oh, come on, is this Well, now we're just getting into the low volume time volume.

Yeah, look at the volume, just kind of moseying on down. Fuck I could have been if I just waited which this is the frustrating thing and I guess like you're kind of stealing the emotion of it in real time of I stuck to the system I did exactly what I intended to do. uh and if I just waited a little bit more I probably would have been good I might have to break the system early because I can't take on that much of a risk like I'm gonna be down another 1500 very quickly if this doesn't turn I just thought this push might be getting something going, maybe getting something going I'll give it a second. it's just when you have a falling wedge like this I don't know a guy.

that kind of depends on fuck I think I have to just bail and I think I have to bail early because I just I can't I count Can't take that big of a loss. but I hate this time of the day. it's just there's more chop. it's lower volume chop.

The drifts are larger. decisions, decisions decisions break the system. Try to save myself money I mean this. it's not looking good.

but knowing my luck, I'm gonna get in right here and it's gonna rip from it. It's been chopping for two days. It's been chopping for 13 days. We've just been like, look at the daily chart ever since.

I would argue Whatever. either Friday the 16th or Monday the 19th. All we've done is go sideways. That's all this Market has done.

Just chop chop Chop Chop chop chop. Chop up. Chop down. chop up like we're just not.

There's no nice trend. Chop is the worst environment. and for those of you who are curious, statistically, there's more chop than there is anything else. Uh, the name of the game.

really. Is it? Whatever time frame you're on. Short time frame, longer time frame. The name of the game is honestly, to avoid chop, get the trend move and then get out at the start of the chop.

you wait for the chop, then um, but obviously that's far far easier said than done. Tesla's still going Apple's coming down even Apple's not like in its own Breakout Uh, I'm invested in Apple, but I don't really actively trade Apple I'm just kind of watching it because it seems to be having quite a bit of influence today on the market. Let me see what Finn Twit is up to. Uh, insane Shop ongoing I Posted an hour ago, 3820 was a major test would need above 38.50 38.50 to trigger upside.

we bounced it at 38.50 and then rejected back to 38.20 This likely has one final bounce left in it before a major collapse. 38 10 3790 First down Bulls needed above 38 548 to matter and that was 11 minutes ago which would have been like here. So according to this guy and hey, take it with a grain of salt, we all have opinions. One bounce in it before collapse I need to filter out more trades.

There's obviously various things I need to fix on this, but I think the first thing is too much trading and then the second thing which is probably less important but still important nonetheless. Deals a bit more with uh, that entry seems to be off even if I use this as a lawn signal even going long now of like, okay, you're in it. Wait, maybe that would save some money something I need to test, need to code up and see the data? It's very, very easy to like see An Occurrence of one thing and do that classic Monday Morning Quarterback of like I saw this one time and I'm gonna play it that way next time because it would have worked out perfectly if I played this that way previously. but once again, you should always be considering the law of large numbers of like Is that true for the whole data set like not just one singular instance? All right.

I would love a per a push to 38.50 where am I at now right now? Um, uh, instead of being down 2.8k I'm now down 2.4 K and I'm long at 35.25 So I shaved off a little bit of my loss, but we'll see how it goes. Uh, kind of running out of time am I back to full day streams I don't know um I'm trying to see if I want this to be like the vibe for 2023 or even for January I Figured coming back it was a worthwhile try just because of it being January and um, just the craziness in the market I Thought it'd be like fun to do it this way, but just from doing it an entire year of my life I Know it's not something that's sustainable eight hours a day Monday to Friday so if I do continue with full day streams, it would just be Monday to Thursday because I would still need a work day to film the other video content like what? I One thing I I have a goal of this year is to create an entire playlist on Rumble On YouTube uh that's 100 free. That is a bunch of training Essentials like of like all the major types of options or even what is options or systematic trading or Futures just like basic description videos I want to build out a massive playlist? Um so I've been wanting to do that for a while but like many things in life, it just comes down to do you have the time? So I know I would need a day where like I could film on Friday and then my team and I could like edit it on the weekend and then maybe get it posted on Sunday something like that or do like interviews or uh, there's just I don't think exclusively streaming is the goal when like there's many, many other things I want to do or need to do. For example, like you have to find the time for me to like keep doing my code to make sure that my systems are up to par of what I like doing.

Uh, it's one thing for me to sit here and like kind of do it in real time with you, but in the back end there's like quite a bit of other extensive testing that should be done. Um so I know I need time for that but that's my initial Vibe I Also know I want to get a bit more into like I guess publicly like as a team like stating discussing figuring out if we could find some EV in the world of sports betting. uh I want to play I've been playing poker for a little bit I'm definitely not any by any means a poker expert but I thought it'd be fun like just to have like some form of like poker tournaments that we could play against each other I thought that would be really really fun. Uh, so a couple things to figure out for sure.

a couple things for sure. but I just knew coming back with the weird shortened week I was gonna do it this way which actually, uh, reminds me about tomorrow. Uh, do not forget with tomorrow. um it is.

Friday uh I have to go actually get an allergy appointment. check in with my allergist, so tomorrow will be like half a day just so everyone knows who's currently listening. Tomorrow is half a day. Hey, if you haven't already on both YouTube and Rumble hit that like button helps out the YouTube algorithm helps out with the rumble leaderboard.

and don't forget to subscribe Subscribe on both. And also make sure you sign up for Locals macross.locals that com Steven there's enough gambling going on I mean Poker in sports, that's for post-market stuff I know I know from 9 30 to 4 We're zoned in on the market. but hey, what about when you need your fix afterwards? HKD maybe doing a move? look at the Mark it's just in this mid shot. it's a chop day.

This is just an awful chop day and ah, part of it is 100 my fault. like I just know you never know if it's gonna be a trap day or Trend day and I just got a little bit over excited that I thought today was going to be a trend day so I played bigger which was in retrospect my major mistake today. um but I'm currently down 2.4 K even if I can make 600 back, that basically just offsets my gain from yesterday. Uh, so that's kind of what I'm looking for.

or if we get a what would be awesome is a push back up to 38.50 right here. where I have this alert Set Uh, that could like just be another classic bull catch here. and then if you look at the bigger time frame just a nightmare. it's probably easier to see it on this.

Just a nice bounce off of this trend line which could potentially potentially potentially potentially lead to kind of a test of this upper trend line. So like we're just in this wedge. this kind of bare flag on the daily. the bare wedge of like, all right, we were at the top, we come to the bottom, we were at the top.

We come to the bottom. So maybe we bounce off of here. Maybe we get with the unemployment report. Maybe we get a nice pop up to like 385 or something in the Spy Totally possible.

One two three. this is the fourth test and it broke below it I got a little overzealous I shorted it heavily and as of now that was clearly the wrong play. So now I'm trying to be quick on my toes and switch it up. and now I'm I'm on the team of maybe we can get this bounce going somewhere.

Um, but we'll see how it goes in seven minutes. I'll be able to move my risk to still a non-ideal level so that's not that exciting of a story. But hey, at least I'm break even on my current position. This yellow line in the top left.

uh, 35.25 I Want to be more consistent with my colors? Um, the yellow should inherently just be like my current position. Maybe I need a different one so you know if I'm also long or short I need to think of a of a different color thing. But anyway, I'm long at 35.25 That's the point of this. Mark this is the S P 500.

I've been watching Apple's trend line and also just this key support in the mid 126s, we're watching Tesla's recovery on the day it went from 107 to 110 right now. So let's see how this all plays out. HKD is waking up a little bit. The dollar just took a smack, which should be good for my position.

Remember the dollar and the market. Not always because it depends on why the dollar is moving, but in the recent craziness, the dollar in the market have been moving inversely of each other. So as I see the dollar vomit here should be good for the market. but Tesla doesn't seem to be reacting too well.

But also remember this is low volume. It's just past noon. Kind of like a classic lunch time. Just slow volume chop type of a thing.

Low volume chop type of a scenario. Uh, remember, shout out to: True Trading Group For three dollars you can check out their whole ecosystem. their live trades, their chat room, their education module. uh, there's no Auto renew, no auto anything like that.

Three dollars. And what's cool about this time of the year is you can get the full breakdown of what the head Trader Mr Michael Edward believes gonna be playing out for the entire year so you could get a yearly analysis in his opinion for just three dollars I think it's totally worth it pinned to the top of chat in the description of the video. Three Dollars True Training Group: Uh, you could just go to Trial.truetraininggroup.com if you want, but it's easier just to follow the link pinned to the top of chat. And once again in the description of the video, the dollars coming down which I like come on HKD looks like it might want to pop again.

look for HKD to get and hold above 34. you might be for round two. Thoughts on bothered he speaks in an hour. He's kind of notoriously hawkish.

Um, but I don't even think he's a voting member this year? I'm pretty sure Bullard is the guy who's no longer of old voting member Matt are you no longer in AMC I Haven't watched you in a while so just wondering if you still cover it. Uh I don't cover it that much because there's not news on it like when there's news I cover it. Um, but I still own AMC if that's your question. But once again, like when I started this way back when this was never a Gme like Gme was the first thing that got me big in the names.

He got me bigger, but it was never a Gme channel. It was never an AMC channel. It was me covering what most people cared about. And right now, whether good or bad, less and less people care about AMC that's just I Guess factual in my opinion.

Uh oh, AMC or not. AMC Apple is breaking its trend line. Um, just a lot less people care about it. A painful, painful truth.

Why don't you make this an HKD Channel I bet you would blow up. Uh, no. because I don't think it would like last for that long. Like remember the Gme and AMC thing was absurdly special because of various things that came together.

HKD is just like a crazy blip on the radar. It's going to be a squeeze, but like there's not going to be a massive Community behind it. It's going to be people degenerately trading it. It'll last for whatever a week or two and then it's going to be done.

It's just this little I mean how long did it like? There's not like some giant community that cares about what HKD is doing or not doing. It's not being. There's no like evidence of like illicit nefarious action. you're just seeing a squeeze like it's just my goal is never to become a Channel of like a specific Channel or a ticker or crypto.

I Enjoy trading I Enjoy talking about trading I enjoy talking about Finance business breaking news and kind of like what the Hot Topic is like I I guess if I had to describe it like I enjoy talking about like what's on most people's mind in the world of business and finance and money. and for a while there that was a lot of Gme and then from there it was a lot of Doge and then from there was a lot of AMC and then from there was a lot of Sheba and then from there it was a lot of like fast forwarding to 2022. it was a lot of like bear Market like what's going down, how do we protect ourselves and I don't know what this year is going to bring I mean for the first two days of the year it was. The big things seemed to be the fight between coffee Zilla and Logan Paul uh today it seems to be uh Silver Gate collapsing Bed Bath and Beyond collapsing and HKD ripping and I don't know what tomorrow will bring I think that's what is like fun is like no days.

The same for me because I'm covering like just insane developments I Don't think that's true at all Matt I think uh people are just not talking about it because they're just waiting. They know everything else well. I mean we know from filings that quite a few retail players have sold like it's just not as exciting like, well, like they're not talking about because it's not ripping anymore. and when it's not ripping, not all but some people are going to get out.

Like if you're trying to say that no, all the exact same Apes who were in it in the June run-up are still in it. Well, there's people in here who tell you no I sold them the run-up and I'm done with AMC Um, are there still Apes interested in AMC Without a doubt. but to think that it's the same magnitude? That's just silly because there's not as much craziness going on. there's a lot of Hardcore people who are in it, and I don't think we'll ever, ever ever sell.

But what about the people who are just kind of like onlookers on the fence and they're like yeah, I'll buy some and it ripped up the cool main money and they move on with their life. Um, that's the group that they're They're just done with it. They weren't like married into this play like other people were. So the number and the interest just drops and you can easily see that by like look at the top five AMC channels or at least the ones that are still around even when they were still making video because I know, uh, some of the other ones have quit actually I think they've all quit at this point.

Um, pretty much I think so I don't think there's any, uh, there's maybe one or two. but even just like, don't just look at one because I don't think that's a fair data point because maybe that person is like more or like less if you just look at their average views, everyone is down because there's far less interest in it. Like far like magnitudes less interest in AMC than there was previously foreign. That's just what it is like.

Things come in to cultural relevancy and things leave. Cultural relevancy. Does that mean it could totally come back in? And I hope it does, because if it does come back into being mainstream media attention, that's probably for a good reason. Most likely the reason is that the stock price is ripping.

So I totally totally want it to not only for uh, the business I have here of streaming and talking about it and somewhat of what I'm known for, but also my own investment. I'm in it. Um, but there. you have to understand anyone who thinks if you're in here watching this thinking that AMC might rip tomorrow, you're wrong.

There's obviously some sort of statistical chance that it could I'm not saying that it's zero, but you have to understand their environment we're in AMC Ripped When money was cheap, people were getting stimulus checks, people were stuck at home and didn't really have much else to do. They weren't out at their job. The world is completely different. Now we're not getting quantitative easing from the FED anymore, we're getting quantitative tightening.

There's no more stimulus ships, interest rates are up, money is more expensive, and on top of all of that, Adam Aaron has made some very, very poor decisions that have been hindering any chance of The Squeeze If you're in here thinking that Adam Aaron wants it to squeeze, I would have to hear your argument because I've heard no decent argument that Adam Aaron wants the stock to squeeze like it wouldn't be beneficial to him. he can't sell because now he has a 10b5 one. Um, the things he's doing with capital. He's only raised what like less than 200 million dollars after running Ape from ten dollars down to a dollar like he's made very, very poor decisions.

In terms of the squeeze, you could argue the decisions are good in terms of keeping the business alive, but it depends like who you are. If you're an AMC investor, you probably like what he's been doing. If you're interested in AMC for to squeeze, you probably shouldn't like what he's been doing. Those are two very, very different things.

All right. And speaking of messing up, I've been messing up because I'm still fucking losing money today. Ah, what should we do? Is there some sort of like, uh, interesting? Speaking of culturally relevant: uh, is there some big interesting video like the way we watched the Logan Paul impulsive uh fighting with coffee Zilla Any videos like that. Thoughts on swinging rum from day to day? Uh I Don't really have much thoughts.

Uh, I'm Rum wasn't one that I was targeting to actively I'm just invested in rum I bought rum. My average is around 950 and that's something I will hold for decades because I think given enough time, especially starting in 2024, next year when we get into the political cycle I Think rum's gonna be just extraordinarily popular, especially with right-leaning people. Um, to me, it's a long-term investment. I Think it's numbers are grow and grow and growing I Like that and I want to be invested in it.

It to me I'm not the most interested in actively trading him when I mean there's enough liquidity and stuff to trade in the market? Foreign said: no Chris you lost it all. Stop training What? I bought HKD at 34.50 Do you think it might get that again? I have no clue. Is that 32? Of course it could I don't know. it's very close, like that's just barely any move it.

Could it get there again? Yeah sure. If you need confirmation bias, why not? I'll give it to you well I think I am officially getting fucked right now. What do I do do I just cut this early. My risk right now is like 26 50s at 28.50 but I could save myself some money I'm out, order filled out.

uh my loss on the day is now 3.6 k order filled. Oh brother oh brother oh brother oh brother. All right I'm in again now I'm sure I'm just getting whips on and see. this is the major downfall of this strategy is if it's chopping, you get fucked.

If it's a trend, it's great at following the trend. But I mean the Dollar's been screwing me all day I don't even know why I'm watching this. But one thing I do see is like why I was willing to get out a little early and save myself a couple hundred dollars is I see the trend of Apple it's snapped Apple tried to bounce but look at where we are now 126 and Apple uh okay so I am now short at 25.75. two five seven five once again two five seven five here.

We'll move this so you guys can see where I am two five seven five and once again if I just held that very original position from the day, I'd be break even and right now I am down 3.6 K Fuck my life I'm down double what I made yesterday. Uh, if it were to close like this, I would officially be read on the year my first day I made 140, second day made 1800 and as of now it's going down as in my P L. Um, if the market goes down enough, it might be good 3.6
