youtube.com/watch?v=6UAkx8tS… Trading NQ with GEX Profiles provided by @quantedOptions. I’ve tested several different GEX tools and add-ons over the years, but this one is honestly incredible. Extremely useful and after using it, I don’t think I’ll ever trade without it again.

After finishing the day on my personal account, we’ll do some scalping on a prop account. Scalping ES with the best CBOE DATA licensed Options add-on for Sierra Chart, ATAS, and Bookmap that I’ve ever tested. @quantedOptions . Game changer for anyone who wants live levels directly inside their trading platform. --------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer CFTC Rule 4.41 Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations.

I’m currently working with two young traders. One of them passed his first $25K prop account and has already taken a payout. The other had blown several accounts before he started studying order flow. Now, starting again from the bottom with a $25K account, he has already taken his first payout and is on track for his second. I hear way too many people bragging about making millions and millions, but when it comes down to it, it’s mostly just talk. I’d much rather see young traders trying to master their emotions, starting from the bottom with a $25K account instead of jumping straight into $150K accounts, and learning to control their instincts. You’re going to have bad days. Sometimes really bad days. That’s part of trading. At its core, trading is a binary game because if one person makes money, someone else has to lose it. There is no such thing as a winning strategy, don’t let anyone fool you into thinking they have the secret solution. I i dont trust in the strategy... for me me the strategies don’t exist. What exists are operating plans, rules, and good practices. Basically, the same principles you should be following in everyday life. You can have an argument with someone without completely destroying them. You can exceed the speed limit? No. But if you do it by a few kilometers per hour, the mistake is still relatively contained. It’s obviously still a mistake, but it’s a hell of a lot better than doing 200 km/h in a 50 zone, that same principle should apply to trading. If you don’t have a routine in your everyday life, if you have no order in the small things, a messy office, a terrible diet, no attention to your health, no respect for other people, I honestly believe it will be very difficult for you to find consistency on the charts. Of course, having a huge amount of capital gives you a significant advantage, but I’ve seen millionaire traders become broke, and sometimes it happened while they were still excellent traders. In many cases the problem started when the order and discipline in their lives began to disappear. Take care of yourself, take care of the people around you, keep some order in your life, and maybe, just maybe, trading can become another source of satisfaction within an otherwise balanced and organized life. Get a job and do it well. Learn what sacrifice actually means and to be responsible for something. I genuinely believe all of that will make you a better trader. And please, don’t trade for money because In 90% of cases, that mindset will make sure the money leaves you instead. The bigger your appetite, the higher the chances you end up eating nothing. 😂 I’m not trying to lecture anyone or give moral lessons. This is just a two-cent reflection from someone who, many years ago when I started, would have loved for somebody to tell me the same thing.

and back to low Incredibly slow and range bound day. 😂 But sometimes changing setups on the tools, knowing the market, following the option flow, and putting everything together can actually work… especially when you throw in a little bit of luck. 😅 --------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer CFTC Rule 4.41 Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations.

On the sell-off leg to the left, the profile concentrates the highest volumes in the upper part of the move: from there price keeps falling, but with declining participation. At the lows, instead, the biggest volume node of the entire chart builds up, heavy trading and zero downside progress. A signature consistent with absorption, though honestly the confirmation only came from the reversal that started there. The interesting part is what happens next. The pullback doesn't go back to test the lows but stalls in the box between 29,710 and 29,840 and stays there: tight rotations, time spent, volume distributing across prices that were previously rejected quickly. Behavior consistent with acceptance of the higher levels, as long as the box holds. That said, the box still sits below a lower high and inside the descending trendline from the tops, so this exact same consolidation could turn out to be distribution under resistance. The break will decide that, not the profile. Meanwhile, price has squeezed itself into the apex between the two trendlines, and the way out of there is an expansion. In which direction, nobody can say beforehand. So: above 29,899.50, if the level holds on the retest as support, it's long possibly toward 30,100 and beyond. Below 29,662.75, if the retest rejects it as resistance, acceptance is negated and the path opens toward 29,360 and 29,400. The volume picture leans to the long side, but that remains a bias, not a forecast. You trade the breakers, with clear invalidation on both sides, and that's it.

London on Monday, fresh cash Monday 😏 It wasn’t the best entry on a potentially “elastic” area that could have hurt me more than the stop I had set because of the spread. But the timing was right, and with a little bit of luck… this one worked out too. --------------------------------------------------- CFTC Rule 4.41 Disclaimer Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations.

Short trade on the NQ during the London session. The first target was reached quickly. The runner, placed at the top base of the buying tail from August 4, 2026, missed execution by just a few points, and the trailing stop was hit around the 35% retracement of the swing range. Unfortunately, that's part of trading. Sometimes price comes within just a few points or ticks of your final target without ever filling your order. What matters most is the overall process. The runner, for me, is always considered a bonus contract. My positions are always structured with the first take profit as the primary objective. Of course, I would have been much happier with a 90 point runner than a 30 point one. :-P --------------------------------------------------- CFTC Rule 4.41 Disclaimer Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations.

Interesting divergence between ES and NQ during the period from 4:33 AM to 7:30 AM New York time. ES is showing greater relative strength throughout the observed interval, but I believe NQ is likely to make an attempt to reclaim Friday's settlement around 28,404. I don't know whether it will actually happen, but shorting at these levels isn't for me.

Generally, I avoid shorting moves that have already been partially exhausted, as they don't fit my trading approach. In this case, however, I decided to take the trade despite it being slightly outside my usual setup. I deliberately broke one of my standard rules, using a small position size and relying on several key levels identified by my custom Sierra Chart indicator. The trade reached its full target, with a position size of three Micro contracts. --------------------------------------------------- CFTC Rule 4.41 Disclaimer Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations.
