When trading with prop firms, traders should carefully evaluate live program terms, including starting balance, drawdown limits, and payout structures, as some firms may move traders to live accounts with significantly reduced balances (e.g., $3,000) after initial payouts, which can impact trading freedom and momentum.

BrianStonk Trades Live FROM Puerto RicoAdded:
Okay. Hello. Hello.
We are on 9:30 really just pumped up.
All right, let me set up guys.
Okay, so we are now in the PM session of New York.
This has been pretty monstrous, climbing higher at every chance we get and we're just approaching alltime highs.
It puts us in a pretty peculiar spot if you're trying to trade, but we'll see what we can do.
Okay, we posted online. Um, yeah, we're going to do the giveaway tomorrow or today. Today. I I missed it. I was busy.
But we're going to probably use what?
Like a X picker. I think that's the most popular one.
Okay. Okay. Um, so this is pretty interesting. You can see like even the five minute time frame, if you're watching this as a scalper and you trade like how I am, you're basically just seeing this get zero retracement or we we're getting retracement, but we're showing respect at every spot we can.
Like there's there hasn't been a single five minute gap that got created. It was invalidated.
Invalidated. So, this is pretty interesting. And we we are getting the first one um that's being tested.
And I I hate to play price action um when we just started at basically overnight highs or not even overnight high, just the high of the day.
But this is not giving if this inverse, which it looks like ES is already starting to do, it's not going to look the best. If you're trying to long, it might get actually a deeper retrace down first.
So that's what I'm watching here right now. Um, the first five minute flip that we had literally all day. If you just looked at 9:30, just look at every gap that was created. We just retraced, held, retrace, held, retrace, retrace, retrace, held, and then we're at this area right now. In theory, this should keep on holding. But what happens when it doesn't?
We took alltime highs here.
And then we have NQ alltime highs, which you could kind of consider SMT, but really SMT doesn't show much.
This is this is what I was projecting yesterday. I was like I wanted this to run and it slammed down. This happened last night basically overnight, but then we just immediately bought it back up.
That was kind of depressing to not be able to trade this because this happened overnight. If this was during PM session or were active, we would have been able to short this going down.
Um, did I win the bracket? So, I was up $1,500 at 3 p.m. and you have 1 hour left to trade and Tradeify texted me like after everything's already closed that like, okay, because they weren't able to update things fast.
Um they're like, "Okay, good news is updated. Bad news, one of you guys got eliminated." I was like, "Damn, it's probably me." And he they were telling me that um that the the person that was my opponent had a really strong comeback. I'm assuming he just longed and just kept on holding throughout the whole uh hour because we we pumped pretty hard.
But I didn't even know like that was just that's the psychology of this competition. Like you don't know when is enough for you to stop because he beat me by I was leading by $1,500. He beat me by I think 700. I could have easily try to went for another like a thousand if I wanted to.
The person won 5,000. So he since he beat me by $700, we both had positive balance. He won 5G's.
All the commands are not working on my YouTube anymore. Weird.
Um, let me see here.
Okay, I got it.
Oops.
I I'm gonna Guys, I need you guys trade with me here because this is still challenging.
I'm kind of presenting like every attempt we had, we had a flip.
What happens when we get like a change to delivery five and inversion? We should be trying to play the short, right?
We should be doing that, right?
Do you guys like playing the downside here?
I think we should.
The next five minute close in 30 seconds, not to alltime highs. It makes it makes sense, but I would not long up here until um we get a proper even this is healthy if we want to sell a little bit lower first and then come back up. Um if NQ took the all-time highs, we could easily represent this as change delivery. ES already took it and we did not take this high. So you're kind of looking at if you're looking at chasing delivery, I think this would be what you're looking at a closure of. But we have this inversion now.
It's coming back up here.
If there's any takers, I'm going to watch the one minute here. If we can get a retrace, come back down, I'll try a jab at it with a appropriate stop.
I'm still it's still very bullish overall today.
We just got to wait for the opportunity for longs.
Here it is.
Okay, we're reaching ES could climb a little bit higher. SOS NQ the moment we get something to confirm as long as we hold this inversion down these two inversion we might take a jab um jab on ES I go maybe on ES Yes.
All right.
Just wait for this.
The only confirmation you have is five minute. I'm still waiting for the one minute flip with it.
Good to this closure. Yeah. And then we could just be watching for this now.
I'm just flipping the new time frames around. I'll also mark the hourly. Um, this still gives the better idea that if you like longs, maybe you perhaps would like it um in the hourly instead.
I'll just mark this out to play the short here is the bold move right now.
We retrace how this five minute.
ES is barely giving a move.
The bull shorts right now would be if this invert you take the first tap in to short lower. That is the I guess the one opportunity right now. It's higher risk because it's counter trend, but no inversion yet. ES is actually getting a chat beside the um the five in here.
Any shorts most likely be on ES for me today. any long most likely on Q as long as things are the same.
This is the BPR area here to also mark this out. This is where you want to see ES not get a closure over if you think we can actually retrace lower.
didn't touch the BPR triple wick high.
I feel like we should do something like this first.
This is like choppy consolidation right now.
Invert this. Get a closure. We actually like one minute breaker too.
Like the game is on. If we ash if we could show some displacement right now.
If you guys see that it's just not that clean because I I wanted one more dry drive first before we turn.
Let's see. Let's see. This is still like too choppy. Nothing confirmed. I don't like longs until we most likely get inside this hourly to be honest.
Do you think it will reverse before all time high? I think so.
Okay, this might turn to the IFBG here that you might get that breaker to go along with it.
Yeah, if ES were to take these wick highs here, I could take the short and put a stop at the wick high. I I like that a lot more if I can. Since it didn't do that, this is still like somewhat of a potential draw on the lower time frame. Okay, no closure.
This is this is pretty good price action in the way that not to trade, but just to watch and be patient with be able to see carefully what we need to do.
Okay.
I think it's baiting the short. It's still like a high risk short though.
Price is just baiting this right now.
We're going to confirm this inversion.
We're going to confirm this breaker.
Your job right now is to see if you want to take a short like this.
At least tight risk. This tight risk for for something that I'm willing to try just because it's like 11 points. 11 points in this market is like is chump change.
The potential is a little bit better though. Um there's just a lot of things where I wanted to do first but yep nothing.
ES could also present something.
I had this is confirmation. Now if you're asking if I'm in this I have to wait for the retrace unless you enter on the inversion closure which is 302. I I typically wait for the break to confirm first. The first stop is my entry.
I'm not gonna ask for too much on this trade. If you think I'm going to like go for the moon, it's not going to happen.
your entry should be inside the breaker.
Stop above the wick high. That's the gist right now.
Okay. Um scalping opportunity right now. Go even at this wick glow. This is already plus one but this be like three if we can hit this.
Let's see how this plays.
pretty tight counter trend scalp that I do think plays.
If it doesn't play, we just wait for the next opportunity.
The five minute is also aligning with the one. I I do think we can get one more tap in, but you know, we could take two two shots at this if we wanted to.
Let me put this mic a little bit closer.
We're in this stop is the high like I showed. If if Oh, my battery is low.
If we get basically 320, you'll see me stop out.
I'm going to actually set this with you guys, too.
Hang on. I'm going to take I haven't took this in a while. I feel like this has helped my cough, but I haven't took this in like a week or so.
So, this is a scalp. I might take one off here at the bottom. What do we had 10 already, but come on. Just just slam the wick and then I'll let the last one run.
still after this if we can push down lower we we might be able to find a long after it's um get a good push.
So for those who don't like the short you're you know abstaining from this you might get um the long after this if we can get some delivery downside.
I'm not going for like a 200 push. I'm just looking to see maybe if we can take out this internal low would be great. If we can get inside the hourly that would be great and then we could start planning for um the long opportunity.
This is the the main low that I want to see happen. This and the hourly.
All right. I I'm not going to break even. Uh, what I'm going to do is most likely lower the stock as it drops. But if this comes back to my stop, it it will get me close to um giving back what I earned just now.
Let's see if this closes first. I I want to see closure. If this pushes through and leaves a wick and come back up, it's most likely going to return back to the breaker.
Okay, that's a good closure. That's nice.
ES is not moving. What the heck was that? You guys see NQ NQ just gave like such a beautiful like one minute candle and ES just still in the range.
I I need to put this aside. I need to look at where I'm going to try to target here. I think my target was this hourly, right? So, we want to see if price can draw all the way down here.
for potentially a long opportunity.
I think it's thinking about trying to come back up right now.
This is like the first real dip that we got in the whole morning basically.
How many you guys are in short with this?
This is um I'm pretty sure there's two, right? Yeah. 10 point stop, right guys?
20 points up in the positive.
Absolutely. Like I wouldn't say like one point of draw down at the very most.
Um, this is going to probably become a 3R.
You got your limit at 010. You want you want to be careful at this because keep in mind you have this inversion, right?
You have this breaker. Let's say this is like the main defense here. If you're trying to go too far above, then you're like, if you ignore the breaker, you're trying to target at the top of the inversion when we don't need to refill the whole thing. We can just go at the very bottom of it. So, I think for me, the overlapping is like, let's just try to get at least inside the breaker.
That's like halfway of the inversion.
Um, just so I don't miss it, right?
ES is like a tank right now. What the heck is this?
Oh, we're about to blitz this. Um, I want to commentate good on this, but I think price action is so bullish that it doesn't really matter.
So, we got like one good push. It's coming straight back up.
I don't know if it wants to go down to the hourly.
Can it do that when ES is still holding this line right now?
Your stream has been super glitchy. Can you can you guys elaborate in what way is like laggy or what is the glitch here?
Maybe should have took the two 2.5R instead of aiming for the turtle low.
Yeah, I mean it's a scalp, right? So that's why we took the first CP already.
Anything else is gravy. You manage however you want.
Sometimes though I want to see follow through long right now. Um, do we have a formation to flip our bias to trying to hunt for longs? I know you you see this drive in we can sweep some internal lows. This is so bullish that it might be the right idea.
Um, just how aggressive it is. Like that one candle that I was talking about just got completely reciprocated.
So, this is what I was afraid of. Once we were able to flip this, I was like, are we going to actually just run it all the way back up? Well, let's just see.
The price action is interesting today.
Just a little bit lower would have been awesome, though.
I'm not sure we would have even considered trying to get inside this hourly, but I'm sure we could have took some of the 15-minute wick lows here first.
Like, you see, you see what I have here?
If ES could actually just get a quick sweep here, we might had a good opportunity to flip longs afterwards.
That's the thing.
But the way that ES held like a tank here, they said, "No, I'm I'm going to I'm going to hold the line and you have triple wicks here. A unmitigated BPR would be actually a good draw if you can see that long setup.
Did we ever retrace inside the gap that created No, we didn't. So, this is the gap I'm looking at.
Um, I'm going have to delete a lot of arrows here. Jeez. This is Memorial Day.
Um, Memorial Day gap up. We never retrace down here. We got very close a few times.
Um I want to see it eventually fill that gap. But when is the Oh, ES did. What?
That that happened last night.
Oh jeez.
This is good though. ES filling this gap is like pretty pretty key here for more upside. Um I actually did not know they did this 7.
Yeah, 720. Didn't break sound of Islander though and Q nowhere close.
So, I mean, the short trade, short scalp, I wasn't going for like a whole big flip that played out well. Um, I it was just so aggressive that this was like this only meant to be a quick turn before we slam it. Anyways, what we should be paying attention for now is this five minute here. closure above the five minute. We're going to take out this next high and then most likely keep on pushing with NQ.
I wanted to be able to read the price action a little bit clearer. Uh but some of the moves were not giving what I was anticipating.
There's a crazy echo.
Anyone's game right now.
Was it half gap or any tap in the gap is considered valid? Um, you got to be more specific with what gaps you're referring to. I I've kind of talked about so many gaps. Unless you're talking about the Memorial Day Sunday gap, just getting any retrace inside of it is is is very good for it.
We would likely refill it in a later date.
We have a bullish breaker now too.
This could be a long now. Um the inversion that we took here that would have been pretty interesting to flip.
It would have. Yeah, this is the kind of second scalp opportune that you can see.
It's not no longer short. It'll be a long.
Yeah, this whole week has been pretty big, right? No wick here. ES gave a wick, but still just gigantic.
Did So, how's this work? Does Spy Spy were able to recapture, too? Okay, that's good. Um, it's just NQ that is leaving such a big gap right now.
How big is this push now, guys? From here to here, you're saying this is 32%.
Is that accurate?
32% in one month? This is end of end of March. So, this is two months basically.
How fast did we move here?
Two months later, we would take alltime highs.
We're just kind of accelerating what we did last year.
And I guess who knows how far we could push from here. Last, last year we took alltime highs. We ran another 15%.
This year, uh, we ran alltime highs.
We're at the 13% mark already.
So maybe 500s if we want to repeat everything.
Let's see for ES kind of waiting while see where we can go with alltime highs.
Um alltime high let's see this is going to measure this from alltime highs here from the previous one we went 10 basically 10%.
See from this alltime highs we're at seven. So, we definitely have more room. Maybe we want to even repeat what we did.
So, 10. This would be 7,800. Very close to 8,000. Wow.
Along with that inversion, took a quick one. That's nice. That was freakishly um bullish in the way that we just immediately ate that up.
That dip was like not even existent.
still pushing here. I don't think we can do anything.
Just watch it run.
We have the long opportunity, but I don't think it's going to retrace for now.
It's pushing Wasn't the 1236 6 candle bullish breaker. Um 1236.
How far is 1236?
Are you talking about Are you on a different time zone? 1236 is like all the way here. Maybe you're talking about 136.
I don't see anything.
You took 3 on that short. Was hoping to see our bullish bullish breaker get tapped. Yeah, I mean that would have been a round trip. We would have took the short and then we took the long right after that spike.
What's up? What's up?
Here's the high of the day, guys.
I really wanted to be able to capture a good long if we could have it. It never gave a good opportunity to frame up a long other than not for sure. NQ, if you were able to flip your position on the inversion, that would have been probably the only real opportunity that we could have taken. After that, we just ran. Um, pretty impressive how we did that.
guys. Um, I have a question. I I bought Alpha Futures account with no activation fee. I tried to pass I passed them. It's showing me activation fee yet. I don't know how to contact support. It's like being complicated. I feel like why is it so difficult for me to find things?
You don't need to pay it.
Just Oh. Oh, wait. Okay. So, if I connect, would I already have the counts?
Oh, it's already there. Okay, never mind. Never mind. One, two, three. Wait, there's only four counts. I need I need one more.
Oh, I Okay, I I I remember now. They activated the four accounts. I have five. But here's the thing, though. I I actually purchased one without activation fee or or or with activation fee. So, I don't know which one I need to pay for.
This is too complicated for me.
How do I know?
>> Yeah, I was muted for to take a call real quick.
We're just waiting. We're just waiting.
Just be patient here.
They They don't not make it easy for sure, though. I can't even tell which one I need to pass.
I have four accounts that's already funded. One that has activation fee. I don't know which one to pay for because I'm I'm betting if I pay for the wrong one, they're just going to make me keep on going for it.
I'm going to stand still.
just contact support. How do you even contact the support? Like I'm looking at it. I can't even find the support chat.
This is this is something I need to tell Alpha they need to up the bottom right does not have like a ticket maybe maybe I have idea Do they email you showing you your purchases?
I need to know which one I have activation fee for.
Oh, they shut it off. I see. I see. That makes sense.
Well, I'll just trade with four accounts. The fifth one would be in the void.
How do you guys like Alpha now though?
Alpha is like besides their support, it's actually becoming one of the top um I think future firms now in size.
So, it's pretty it's pretty good to see them grow so well.
They're a top firm. No, I I think they're they might I want to say they're bigger than My Futures now in volume especially.
I feel like my future has been falling off.
So, alltime highs, guys.
Oh, no, not the alltime highs on ES and Q just took the highs. Um, we could still be looking for more longs. I think scalper mentality works a lot here.
What happened to the competition? If you're talking about the Grand Cup, um I got beat. I was up I was leading by $1,500 with one hour left. And I was telling my chat, "Do I make more or do I stop here?" Everyone said, "Just stop."
They messaged me saying, "You lost." And then Trade File was like, "Yeah, your opponent had a Hail Mary trade."
So, it's tough.
Hell, Mary, are you kidding me?
You blame chat? I don't blame chat. Um, it's hard though. Like, you could be up like 3K and you're like, "Okay, I'm done." Then the the last hour they could just go ham with it.
I wanted to win. I heard Desi, he said, you know, don't worry, I'm going to take down the I'm going to take the win for you. And then today, he's like down 12,000 from just shorting gold. I would pull up the gold chart, guys. I think he shorted gold overnight.
Maybe he made some money. Who knows? Um, and then basically at 8:30 it just zoom zoom zoom.
So he's in the ditches right now.
Zash kind of funny.
By how much did you lose? It was only $700. I was up 1,500.
He basically made another 2.2k. So I lost by seven, which is like it's not that much. It's like 700 would be what?
35 points. I could have got that.
Blame chat. Yeah, I think it's easier to just blame chat. I don't I don't want to take responsibility for this loss.
That's what I was I was telling um Traify. I'm like, it would be nice not to share like the exact number that you're up because like that's like the whole point of the mystery. But what, this is why I said, what if like the last hour, 3 to 4 p.m., the very last hour of trading, if it's like really close, like within like a few $500, there's like a heating up um animation.
And then the more close it gets, let's say he crosses me like it's like 400, 300, it's like more fire flaming. And then like once we're break even or like even evenly match, it will just be like scorching lava.
Um, if I saw that, if I was watching the last hour and I saw that, I'm like, "Okay, I need to make more money.
But I think Brett just wants to do like kind of like a poker system where you can make a bluff. You don't know anything psychology.
going jab in on NQ at 325 for for what short.
You saying ES is extremely weak. I feel like ES is not even trying to move.
ES is like a tank right now.
Hasn't moved an inch.
What's What seems to be driving up the markets though?
Oh, you know what? It's probably Nvidia.
Nvidia probably made a big comeback. It was like red, really red today. Yeah, it's climbing.
So, like the last 20 minutes here, it kind of helped push it up a lot.
See like AMD for sure. Let me see. AMD is up 4.3%. That's big. Microsoft finally made a big move. Jeez, took so long though. Um Tesla's flat.
What else do I have?
Micron. I need to see Micron just hit 1,000. I think it's going to burn afterwards.
We're getting like 750 or not 950.
Sandis is up big.
Oil is starting to tumble.
I don't know if it's a short yet, guys.
I think it's a long war or no touching.
If this is going to be the entire session, We only took one good trade.
After that, we're just going to be tied down to nothing.
How do you trade aggressively on 50k eval? Do you play safe? How many contracts do you normally go? If it's eval, my model right now, since um I'm the type to who's been trading profit for so many times, so many years already that I don't want to waste time going through the evaluation process. For new traders, you should take it seriously, take it slow. But after you, you know, trade so many times with prop firms, try to see if you can pass the eval process as fast as you can. Don't waste your mental power, mental capacity on going through the hoops with evals. If it's one day pass, try to pass it in one day, one trade even if you can.
We're using this five minute inversion and OB as a launch pad right now.
Yeah, I was not in favor of shorting here. Just just too bullish right now.
Maybe we get a strong five minute closure through this. I could consider it. I could really consider it.
Damn. I think I saw Yeah, you were taking a short at somewhere. Take a 10point loss.
It was a I think premature for me, but like I mean tight stop. You were probably hoping to see set it lower.
Even a better long area down here would have been better.
But we we've been doing pretty good in patience. Um so far we waited for every move before taking the entry.
Am I seeing this right? Are people calling the update with a live program for Apex and then like the bundle and save Apex 4.0?
Is that is that already four?
Damn. Every every upgrade is like 3.0, 2.0, 4.0 Oh, it's getting just worse and worse.
How many upgrades do you need to do?
You got short on silver. Silver is like peaking right now.
Had a good run right now. Um I guess very minor run still.
major sell though like this is if you see this correctly playing from the bottom here to the retracement that's 6% right there so we completely erase all um the draw down here same thing with ES honestly ESNQ we just erased it u this didn't happen anymore more.
Did you have a chance to talk about the new Apex bundle? No activation costs.
Currently make these are the cheapest accounts by far. I I get the sentiment with that, but they you got to consider they have the live program that's not trader friendly at all. It's like really um against you because let's say you do the the bundle, you you buy five accounts, they move you live whenever they want. No clear path.
Um because they're also considering lifetime payout, so not that fun. Um even with five accounts, some people are probably going to buy 20. You get one payout. That's good. you know, I think it's like 35k and then they move you live to start with 3K. That would literally kill your whole momentum and no forfeiting profits sounds cool, but it's it's locked away as a gimmick.
Similar to top step, honestly, it makes top plan top live program highlight a lot more because top step also do not forfeit profits, but they start you with 10,000 minimum versus 3,000.
So, if you're asking me personally, like without bias, um I would give Apex more props if they can raise up the starting balance to like 15,000, 20,000, something more standardized.
Like if you have 20 accounts, you get moved live, you can't be moved with 3,000.
When other firms are moving with five accounts, they already give you 20K, 22.
Let's say I take a max payout with Apex and blow them out the first payout. Will that make it worth it?
So, I feel like that's already something that people they would consider because they they do this all the time. Um, you're going to do that and guess what's going to happen? They're going to uh move you live before you take the next payout. That's where it's going to trap you. So, you're like, "Okay, I took my first payout. I purposely blew it. I'm gonna buy 20 more accounts. I'm gonna get another payout. Right when you're about to request that movie live and then potentially a 40k payout or 35k payout just becomes 3k draw down. That that becomes like the tricky side of things.
When will you be giving the prop counts for the comments on the recent podcast?
It's just going to be Friday. Tomorrow.
Today we're going to do the alpha one. I missed it yesterday. Uh, and then tomorrow we'll do the podcast and we should wrap things up there.
Why would they do that? They're already doing it. There's so many people that are commenting. Like I I was right about to request a payout and they moved me live and I'm stuck with a 3K payout or 33k draw down account.
I'm telling you. Um, well, if you don't heed the advice that I'm sharing, then you know, feel free to trade and let me know after a month when you're about to request pay. Let's see what happens.
Lucid did it. Move your lie when you're about to get a big payout. They they don't do it that way. Um they consider lifetime payouts more aggressively. So if you um there's some cases that people make a big spiel out of there's like um someone who like you know kept on getting payouts and then blow up the account. Rerun it, get like a few more payouts, blow the account and then he took like 80,000 payouts. he tried to do another set and they move him live. That should be more justified.
Um because it's pretty clear what's happening.
But Apex is um from what I've seen already. Um there's there's some there's some influencers too. Like I think AW was the one who presented it, she has like 150,000 profits. She took one singular payout in her lifetime and they already moved her live.
No other firm would do that. Like if it's Lucid, Lucid would give you like four more payouts before they move you.
So it's not exactly the same. Five minute enclosure here would be interesting for us to again open the door for a short scout blower. Now that we took the highs, um I the draw should be alltime high on N.
You have to think where do you want to take the entry. We're watching this five minute right now and see how well it holds.
Apex ban you when I start making this payout. I can no longer buy accounts.
Good news is you might get unbanned because I've seen people um plenty of people get unbanned, but they already mastered it. Um they're going to let you buy accounts and they're going to let you take one payout before they unban they ban um not ban you again, but they move you live.
It's a it's a master class. Unban everyone.
The people who were banned already are the good traders, they get one shot at payout. After that, they get directly moved live because they're like, "Oh, we we seen your history. You you made a lot of money already.
Do you think it's weird that I've been moved to Pro Plus with TPT with only two $250 payoffs lifetime?"
How much are you getting moved live with what draw down?
Cuz that that is like unheard of. $250 or I actually heard that case before but it's like very very rare because would you get moved live with 250 minutes close The next short scalp might actually hit pretty hard here. Let's see. Cuz I think we could actually drive to the hourly.
We're already at 2 p.m. New 4hour candle. It's a It's a It's a big boy candle. um makes you want to really take the hourly low and then eventually get inside this hourly for maybe another like a hour. That could be the case here.
What's the point of having 20 counts if they move everyone live? Everyone live with one account. That's the thing. If you're if you want to trade Apex, just trade like one or two counts. Um that that would kind of pair counter it.
So, we're in the bullish breaker territory on the lower time frame, but this is this is so back forth where like the next move would likely signal the move for the next hour.
Guys, Lucid merch has dropped, too.
Let's let's let's take a look together.
Um, the Lucid store in high demand. Yo, this beanie looks I don't wear beanies though. But this hoodie though in installments [ __ ] I'll add it. Um, let's see what else I got. I think they already gave me this, but I I'll get a second hoodie.
Are these the only things?
Is it a notebook? It's a mug. You know what? I'll take a I'll take a mug.
Take a white one.
I'll take a beanie just for the hell of it, too.
Apparel. Let's see. Apparel.
Trademaxing. Oh, this looks clean.
Can I see the back?
We'll take one.
What do you guys think of it?
How much is my total now?
I got $108. You know what? That's not too bad.
Yeah. Wait, I I think I'm missing one. I was trying to add something. Oh, sleeve or hoodie. Oh, it didn't give me my sleeve. Okay, there we go. Now we're talking.
This is $90. How is a long sleeve more expensive than the hoodie? Usually the hoodies are much more expensive, right?
I got to just buy some more stuff. I'll take the I'll take the other hoodie, too.
We're at 250. We're going to donate them.
I need a more definitive closure here.
ES is not showing that definitive closure. It's still anyone's game whether it's long or short.
It's just so choppy that I can't even pinpoint where Oh, I have two long sleeves added. Oh [ __ ] This is where I get robbed.
Dude, where did I have the page? Oh, I see now.
Did they deliver to Puerto Rico, guys?
Oh, citing a source close to the negotiating team. The text of the potential MOU has not yet been finalized or confir What?
Yo, that is so trippy.
is like rejecting it now.
Oh, no.
It doesn't ship to Puerto Rico, guys. I think we play the short now.
Once we get more invalidation on the fiveminute structure, I think we slam the short.
What do you guys think? to play here.
Will you live tomorrow? Yes. Is there is there something going to be on tomorrow?
This the most choppy PM session that we had in a while. Can't even decide where to go.
Yo, what guys? Rips is live with Rampage.
What is this?
a UFC fighter that I am aware of is going to be live with Rips.
Oh, you know they they're both kick streamers now. That makes sense. I wonder if that's like why they did that.
That is that is a little bit random, but I I I can see it making sense, though.
You take anything? Yeah, we took one short that short here and we ran it down. That's it. So far, we're It's really choppy to find a second trade right now.
Iran rejects today's report claiming a US Iran has been reached saying this is fake news.
Dude, who's the who's the one with fake news right now?
Fox News is saying, "Oh, they agree on the 60-day ceasefire, extended ceasefire."
Who's the one that's doing the fake news, guys?
You know what the funny thing is though?
Like it's another ceasefire. It's not really an agreement. I mean, this is closer that they're working on the agreement, but they should more clarify that it's not a deal being reached. It's just a agreement to extend the ceasefire to continue working on a deal.
New pro plus transition is crap. I need to see that. I I I'm like not really following what this exactly means. Um, I I saw the post they did, but I need to see more info on it because I'm still confused because they Oh, there's a there's graphic here. Um, the Pro Plus development includes three different three differences from Pro Plus accounts. So is it a whole different pro plus traders are moved to pro plus development after review of trading performance strategy and risk behavior.
Common risk behaviors include aggressive sizing, rapid draw down, blow through loss limits or large single session losses.
So it's two different profiles, the regular one and develop one.
Reduce contra sizing, daily loss limit, smaller innovative draw down. I'm not even sure why this is even here because if you're not doing good then why would you be moved alive in the first place?
I like how you have that black shirt button all the way to the top. There's there's a lot of people that point that out. They're like um some people like it, some people dislike it. Like you can't trust someone who who has that button up like that.
This is pretty slow now.
I I might play the short now.
We hit something.
I think I I'm leaning more on the short right now just because it's been consolidating, but we haven't really tooken the lows yet. The longs I want for lower expecting to get moved live with Lucid as I just locked fifth payout. What happens to your funds when you get moved live? Max pay out every time with excess above 160 on 150k account. So their live program on um it's a very good question. We should have this ready um I want to say this weekend, but it's going to be a dedicated page only for the live program. So you want to see Apex Live program, you want to see it with Lucid, you want to see with Tradeify, you'll see what it is. Live capital. Yes. Upfront balance. Um let me just compare it with like Topep. Let's say TopSep is not $0. It's um they actually give you a static balance. So it's static, not in draw down. They don't give you draw down. They give you money, which is positive. So 10,000.
Um, oh, this is wrong or kind of right. The max is 15,000, but if you start with three, I guess that's the main thing here. Um, l said you start with 22.5 as max. If depending your account size. So if your account size is 150k, that's 4,500 per account. If it's like 25k, it would be 1k per account. As you can see what this would look like if you have it with um the max 15,000 on Apex, which is I want to change that.
Honestly, that's not the max. That's what you can scale up to. It should be 3,000.
Um yeah.
So why I would say Lucid is better than tops up because you know you you start with 10K versus 22.5K you lose 10,000 is blown. You still have 11,000 left on Lucid.
And this is live program details. So we we'll have this out very very soon.
Hopefully that answers that live program question.
Does not everyone see yet? It's like kind of beta right now. Um, but you could see you could still see it. If you we're going to we want everything to be easy to reach.
So, if you see Lucid here, click Lucid and then go to detail rules. You'll see the live program here too, which is this amount.
So, everything's listed. Um, h I hope I hope it's not messing with me. If I feel like if I short this and it just completely buys it back up, I'm going to get somewhat annoyed with this price action.
Oh, we got Dono in the build. I haven't seen Dono in like ages.
I I was contemplating shorting off this version. Stop at the high. I didn't end up doing it just because it was so back and forth.
But I I do think short is the opportune area, especially with this five enclosure.
Guys, you guys like shorts?
Five minute closure. I'm going to smack this. I'm going to smack it. And hopefully this brings me glory.
It'll be like the second trade of the day.
Oh, 28.3 R. Are are you How is it 28.3?
Do you have like the most tiniest stop-loss?
I need I need to see this. If you were to do like I don't know something like that.
How would you do 28? 28 is like impossible unless you just did like this. This is hilarious.
This is still nine even though I'm doing like Oh, I'm I'm geeked.
You posted your trade. Oh, let me see here.
Yo, you did the tiniest stop in the world, man. You're talking about like three ticks.
If you actually hit this and it didn't take you out, I'm actually like surprised.
The question is where do we short? I I want to say back up here.
This makes it more of an even split.
If I'm enclosure already on ES, we could actually look something like this.
Oh, what am I doing?
Like I would not be mad at something like this on ES2.
We get a retrace like that. If I'm in a gap, that's like most likely the area that I would join in now if I could.
My straight guys.
Is there a reason you did not long the fiveminute version? Yes.
Here. No way you said that. I would be long a high of day.
U I need to see where else you're talking about. This is a fivem minutee gap here though. I would play this.
We I need to see which one I want to play though. And here ES.
Let's do ES. Let's do ES. ES has been slightly weaker for good amount of the day. I will try something like this most likely.
It did not even get there. Okay, 7980s entry. We're going to try to take it down to PM lows and hopefully through it.
That's the trade right now.
NQ is similar. I think ES I'm I like doing tighter stops in that case. If you're trying to do an N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N Q, this could also work here too. Either one, your choice.
Let's see how we play.
One more spike here. Ideally get inside the five minutes so ES can get in there too.
Is there a reason you haven't bet on Arsenal winning the Championship League?
Maybe because I don't watch soccer or football and he's getting [ __ ] on right now.
I think it's about dump here guys. I didn't get any entry on ES but uh for NQ we did get inside the five minute. I think we should already play for lower here.
This is also line with a inversion retap.
I want to leave this open still. I still like this if it wants to re tap in. As long as the PM lows are still intact.
Last trade of the stream, guys.
Here's here's a drive in.
Will you make it or you break it?
Silver, you're really going that drop for that 28R was it?
It's incredible.
I'm in an NQ. I'm going to try to leave this open for ES.
Come on. You either drop it or you give me a ES entry so I can double it.
We move around 10 15 points and then we stop moving. That's what we do. That's what PM likes to do, guys.
I have NQ guys. I'm just waiting to see if I can get in ES. ES is the original trade and Q is a five minute retrace.
I only have a very small size on Q. ES is like the main focus right now.
Come on, man. Do something. This is like stuck.
I'm just flipping through the one and five to see if it wants to climb back up.
is the bold move to average in NQ and let it slam through these lows.
Think is that's the bold move right now.
My average is going to be so stinky because I only have one contract from here. I had three uh blit orders just didn't get filled sadly.
We're driving down. Yeah, ES did not get filled for me. Um, I'm going to leave this open for now unless until we get PM lows, then I'm I'm not sure if I'm going to leave that open still. Um, I took the jab on NQ here. I took one more aggressively just see if it can slam down just because I don't think we have hopes of come back up. So, my average is like cooked right now, but I am still liking lower. We're just not going to get this trade. I try to alert the trade on ESU, but you know, our luck is just this bad where I'm putting this alert up.
Short this five minute gap, we just get right there.
One more tick inside, I would have got filled.
That's just fun. Fun with price action.
PM lows taking on NQ. We should still see more flow.
I I don't know if we get an entry gun on ES. And I'm not sure where I would hunt for lower right now.
I'll be surprised if this comes back above 300 now without slamming down a little bit more. This is the original trade here for ES. Like I want to see past PM and try to get through this.
Yeah, this would have been a banger. We both were also in a Yes.
I can see this flooring down now.
What was that?
We're We're basically I want to say we're countering the whole entire day because we took two shorts. We didn't take a single long yet. Guys, what are we doing on NQ here, but I just added more um no field on ES. So, we're just playing this through.
I am still open with this. As long as PM lows aren't taken 74s on ES, I'm still optimistic on playing the short on ES here. This is a tight stop here at this three points.
We just need a drive in and then let's see this is it's going to come here.
Looks like Here we go.
Get a spike. We're two points away from this fivem minute gap now.
And if we just blow past this, what a day.
Would not be the most fun day.
Here we go.
Okay, time get filled here.
Let's see what happens. chat stop is at 83s basically.
There we go.
We're good.
Everyone's in, I bet. Um, now just to let this play out and see what we can do with it. And you got to spike through this.
Flipping the fivem minutee gap would not be good anymore. Basically the whole point if we flip this five minute get a closure above 80 like 81.25 the trade is not going to look nice.
You have a horrible fill. I mean this is still here. We haven't really gone too far.
That food's here too, guys. Let's Let's see this either stop us out very quickly or give us a trade.
This is tech right now. Sandis and Micron just going nuts.
Yo, Microsoft making a comeback. They were the laughingstock for a while.
Hello. Yes.
All right.
Here's ES, guys.
We're going to watch very closely if we how well we maneuver around this fivem minutee gap here. Hard stop is set at Ely 83 right now. So, it's like a 31 stop.
Um, yeah, now the real show begins.
Whether we make glory or we get ran through.
Are you sure? Should I make it more clear? Am I I'll make it more clear for you guys.
There. Does that answer your question now?
Still sitting at the entry.
was a setup. What I'm looking for right now is ES is a tight stop off this trade. We got the fivem minute closure to invalidate all the five minute structure. We left the fiveminute gap. I want to see this retrace. Do not get a closure above and target all these lows here.
That's that's like the the setup itself.
if you are like a permable like you know just ignore this but um I'm just looking for PM lows and hopefully even a little bit lower.
This is like pretty classic 2R trade right now. Very tight stop, very easy target. If we even hit this, like the first TP would like be pretty classic.
Rumor has it that Ston can beat ICT. Is that true, Chad? Is that true? Someone tell me that's true.
We made it. All right. Not going to celebrate until we get under 74s and then try low 70s would be better.
One slight rejection. Cool. We're going for the bacon though. A little bit lower.
Going for the bacon. Going for the bacon.
Oh, Obius is disconnecting, guys. Is my power out?
Show me the pig. Show me the pig. Show me the pig.
Um, break even. Um, break even's only after we take PM lows.
Then you could do whatever you want with it.
Bring it home to sweet Alabama.
Sweet.
Sweet Alabama.
Guys, this is like no no like draw down on this is like kind of crazy.
I think we're if we hit the M lows here, break even should be set.
We did take the internal low. Um, I'm not really asking for too much past that. Like, I'm just asking for PM lows so I can protect myself. But if it comes back up to our entry, I'm actually not going to be that happy because we're just going to give up so much for like a two for a few ticks.
PW and rips are exactly right about you.
What was that?
Is that a mean? Is that a compliment or is that just I can't even tell.
Bro, you don't know how much I need this short T. Bro, that sounds a little bit too like you were in red and then you slammed with the sides and you're like finally.
Um jeez guys, don't freaking do this.
This invert. I might just take two off.
I I really hate price action if it comes back up and not get any single delivery.
Like this is so many resting that I'm actually surprised I even want to think about trying to come back up.
Let me check the one.
I'm just going to be careful on the one minute flip here.
Um, closure above 78. Gota take it.
I'll show you guys what I'm going to do real time here. If this get a closer 78, I'm going kill two of them for minor profits and just hold one for break even.
Tough, tough, tough. It's copy traded.
Tory trend line too powerful. It is, man. It's like a tank right now.
Is he like stuck?
Where did the giveaway tonight, guys? I missed yesterday. I was busy.
So feel free to enter if you haven't already.
Such a beautiful entry. We got the internal low that's like already like past one R, but I'm I'm actually aiming for these lows down here. For some reason, we cannot get them. Not yet. Chat, what is stopping us from getting through these lows? I do not understand.
I'm about to give back profits.
NQ is like already ripping back up, man.
This is some [ __ ] on delivery today.
Wait, is what do you guys call Israel?
Something happened?
All right, I'm going to take this closed above. I might have to take um some off so I can feel better about it.
It's so sad to say.
I have three right now. I'm going to take two off if I can.
Is stopping stopping me from taking my TP targets. Are you guys serious? We should be blaming Israel right now.
I should have just took it off at the internal low and been happy with it.
Just wanted a little bit more aggressive booms honestly because if we take out 75s, I could imagine we slam lower.
This sounds perfect to wrap up this stream.
freaking [ __ ] market because again like this is if we're talking one R this would be here this is already like one and a half R at this low but when I'm scalping like this tight stops I actually want some pretty big delivery I don't understand what Price Action wants us to do now.
But yeah, uh for those asking the alpha giveaway 20 counts, we're going to do that tonight.
So feel free to tune into that. Enter if you haven't already.
Um, we're going to most likely wrap this up.
Every delivery, man, I get I get such a good short uh and then it comes down and just comes right back up. I feel like it' be the same thing if I long, but at least longs I would hit the objective and then my green stop and said for the short so far it's like missing the objective very clearly. NQ we did take another low. I appreciate that. I really do. But that's about it.
How to enter? It's the It's the one that's on SPF Twitter. I I'll post it real quick.
It's this one that was kind of here days ago.
This one 20 counts. Um, we should have done it yesterday, but we I want to give a week. We didn't do it yet. So, if you haven't done it, you also can do it on Instagram here and then get another entry.
So very good odds. 22 250 entries.
There's 20 counts. That's almost 10%.
Much better odds than you'll get here.
But but but but We'll just see what happens with this trade, man.
Kyle still going for the silver drop.
Yo, maybe if silver can dump the index could also follow suit. Let's see if we if we can get some smooth delivery on gold and silver. Right now, we just need to see a nice candle.
It's for Instagram and Twitter, guys.
It's a entry per Don't know what to say to this.
This is the most stuck PM price action in a long time, right?
Is yesterday PM we actually got a very good delivery.
This one we had very smooth delivery.
This one we had a good sell delivery.
Um this one we had kind of both sides.
Good delivery there. Upside delivery downside. And then fast forward today.
What is this? I I need to know what this is because this is not delivery.
I still like this as optimistic trade.
If you took TP and you feel like the short is still good, it's not that big of a stop, guys. Your your risk wars in your favor and this is a second attempt where we didn't really take any of the targets yet. So, I it should be fair game to me still. Um, that's going to be up to you if you like the trade. I want to stick through it a little bit longer so I can, you know, watch with you guys.
I'm gonna give it a little bit more time, but if we uh, don't move anytime soon. We're going have to wrap this up.
Here we go. Show me the money.
Close your eyes and just pray to the markets. Matter of fact, I'll do something better. I'll create my own candles. This is where I have to pull out a top secret strategy that very little of you guys seen me do. Some of you guys have, but I have to I have to pull it out.
So, what we're doing is basically manifesting the next candle. The next five minute candle is going to look something like this.
If we put it next to it, the marker makers is going to resonate with it and they're going to be able to see like, okay, this is the next projected candle.
Let's move like how we projected and we should get a delivery straight to 75, 72, 71.
Just wait. Watch this.
Next five minute candle closes in a minute and 30.
Watch guys. You guys think I'm joking too.
We got to manifest this. This is this is it. The next five and then we're going to close this no matter what. at 320.
Okay, 30 seconds left.
Okay, guys. Here we go. Here's the next candle. I got to move it a little bit higher so we can be right next to it.
There it is. We're going to block out the next candle and it's going to do what we got to do.
Catch you the next one. You have to wait for the next five minutes before we wrap this up. You're going to see some magic happen here. Hopefully, it's not the inverse. I chose the black candles, not the blue candles.
No. Come on. We got four more minutes to make some magic happen.
Did we Did we do it wrong? Did we summit the the bullish kettle set? I I hope not.
Wait, what? How's NQ already doing it?
Should I You know what? I have to I have to do the same thing for NQ.
He is actually a tank, guys. That's that's the one thing that you got to remember.
We're messing the wrong one.
should have just kept it on NQ. I actually closed the NQ um on this draw.
I was holding ES, which is good, but like we should just smack it on ENQ and just call it a day.
Maybe ENQ can help ES drag it down too, though.
Now we wait.
The one hour gap is what I've been targeting for like the longest time, but then I pivoted to like let's just do a short scalp to pick up enter a low instead.
Show me the bread.
Yep.
Might be time to close up shop, guys. I have I had my food delivery came in like 40 minutes ago and I should have ended it 20 minutes ago.
Um, this is the trade. I guess I'll hold through it. Um, I'll hold one. We had 80 entry.
I'm just going to take another one off here and then break even the last one basically and let this play out. This is all copy traded so I'll have one left just to enjoy the ride. If it hits break even, I'm not mad anymore.
Just already giving up on a day, let's say.
Okay. Yeah. Um, we're gonna just do the giveaway tomorrow for our YouTube giveaway. But if you haven't entered already, join the Smart Prop Firm one where we're doing 20 accounts. We're going to draw winners today. Just look at the Twitter, look at the Instagram.
It's the alpha one. We're giving 20 alpha accounts.
So, I'll see you guys tomorrow.
