That last trade shows how real it is to trade live, the emotions get overwhelming but I like how you kept going back to the original trade idea and sticking to the plan. Love the recap man!
This format of your videos will grow this channel. This is brilliant commentary. Explained the process especially how you keep explaining the psychology to each areas of concern
I had problem comprehending trading in general. I tried watching other TH-cam trading channels, but they made the concepts more complicated. I was almost giving up until when i discovered content and explain everything in detail. The videos are easy to follow
Please continue these recaps. I'm not going to lie, this was absolutely one of the best videos overall I've seen regarding, "some" ICT concepts, live trades, real and authentic reactions. I don't know where I've been but it's a blessing to have discovered you. Also appreciate your humility and in-depth explanations. Your advice on mindset and how to think when approaching a trade is hands down one of the best I've seen. Blessings!
@@TheTravelingTrader You're more than welcome king! 💪🏾🙏🏾I've spent the last 2 hours writing down all the info explained in this video, transferred it to a PDF to refer back to as I prepare for this challenge. I'll be practicing in the demo with the same risk management and concepts in mind. I'm nervous, but excited. Definitely going back through your videos now lol 😂
lol ur being so scammed you dont even know... the bankers around the world never trader FVG... Please doint be scammed... Learn to trade on your own... How? Thru observations and thru seeing... thru losses... Think bro if this moron proclaims to understyand it why cant the big traders do the same... bc its a scam... ur being scammed bro...
You did not follow your strategy on that last trade by not following your risk management plan. However, I appreciated your honesty as we sometimes let our emotions take over. The fact that you showed that vulnerability says a lot about your integrity. Thank you very much, I'm currently going through your list of videos as I am interested in your discord.
@@TheTravelingTrader You bet Z, I don't have time to watch all your videos, but I appreciate them when I do. Lately have had more interest in day trading, so will definitely appreciate more of these in the future. Cheers!
first time seeing your channel... i like how you broke it down it was hilarious because i was in these same trades thinking the exact same hoping those equal lows got ran lol. great vid
Enjoyed your video! Question; can I go into TopTrade practice mode and go back in time and practice with the market replaying itself as it you were trading live? If so, how?
I wouldn’t really worry about that. Just learn to trade first. Personally I just want to use my own money. I don’t want investors and have to mentor people and have people bugging me about losing trades. You need a trading system where you only need to be right about 25-30% of the time and still make lots of money so in this case it’s normal to have lots of losing trades. Being dependent on a high win rate is actually a huge problem for trading systems.
This is a great trade walkthrough! I wonder if this is an ICT trading concepts you are using or just purely price action sir? Also what is an OTE and do you have a video showing how to plot it using fibs? New subs here by the way. Also, may I know what are the content details of your monthly whop membership? Thank you sir!! Really appreciate you and more like this kind of video.
I want to get into trading and don’t have much money to get a good training program. What would you say is the best way to get started before trying to get an account funded?
I really appreciate your efforts! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Thanks for the analysis! 🔍 Need some advice: 🙏 I only have these words 🤔. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). Not sure how to use them, would appreciate help. 🙏
Why do you have to pay monthly for an account on topstep and a one time fee when u pass surely u just pay once for the account and the one time fee why pay monthly or is that just how it is you have to pay monthly?
Also that third trade you already secured a bag and cushion to be able to afford to have a wider stop. If you hadnt been up and that was your first trade of the day it would have been much better to not move your stop
New to futures, and never used a stop loss, but ive seen it done. - Why would you take out 2 contracts rather than leave them in, and simply move your stop loss down?
how is the spreads and commissions i am currently trading forex with lower time frames exaclty like you but the spreads and commisssions eat almost all of the profit especially in the long run....maybe i should look into futures but i dont know the fees and spreads would be amazing if someone would tell me....appreciate it
I lost over $80k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits monthly . Thanks Alex for letting me know imbalance , stay consistent my friends
If u look at the bottom right it’s says Tradovate and it had a green light indicating the he is “live” instead of finding excuses why not take the info and use it to make money for your self

As experienced trader, I have to tell you that you made so many mistakes on your last trade. Praying and eating nails is no way of professional trading.
this person will throw to alll beginners pathetic terms like fair value gap and buy side lq .... theyre pathetic... if youre a new trader look at where his fair value gap is... its at a level opf support or demand. LET ME TELL YOU ... U can find all of this for free... dont be bother by these people.... Fair value gap lol... buyside liquidity lol... those are the most pathetic terms...

do you show brokerage statements over the years? to show that you are profitable?
Yeah they don't normally show full trade history as most of these guys loose money. Its easy to show your winners
@@dannyslifeandtravel i suspect he's making most of the money from his mastermind class
@kitsonang7943 yeah...when everyone wants to dig holes you sell shovels
Great video Z. I really liked the last trade and seeing all the emotions and decision making you discuss. And the "trade music" was great!
🙏🏽❤️
Yes please keep the live going. Good stuff
😎
I just listened to your podcast with Rizz today. Good stuff bro definitely got you another follower
Welcome aboard!
Awesome! Please carry on doing these videos:))
you got it!
very interesting. Keep showing trades when possible. !!
That's the plan!
This was so good, thanks for sharing. I have been curious about Futures for some time, I'm going to check it out.

Dig it! Thanks man!
No problem!
I really appreciate the breakdown. Very few show live trades and the mindset behind trade win or loss!
My pleasure! Glad it was helpful.
Love your video format. Very educational.
Glad you enjoyed it!
As always, GREAT WORK Z
Appreciate that
Love the recaps!
Yeeee ♥️🔥
Love this breakdown!
thanks!
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO. I LIKE WATCHING LIVE TRADES. I WANT TO GET INTO TRADING FUTURES.
Any time!
Great, really great, when you consider the total amount for the entire duration of your trading, not just the last trade as being not so good.
thanks fam

the video is helpful, live with emotions/ psychology trading .. keep them coming and thanks
Love the recaps Z!
Great recap. Better than live so you can get to the executions. I'll be waiting on the next one! 👍
Enjoyed your video! Question; can I go into TopTrade practice mode and go back in time and practice with the market replaying itself as it you were trading live? If so, how?
Thanks. No idea what TopTrade is, sorry
You are the GOAT on TH-cam!
Great stuff Z.
Thanks brother
This is gold brother need a few more of these not too much
Very real and helpful. Thank you for sharing.
Im coming over from forex. I don't at all understand the contract limit portion of prop firms. Hw do I determine that?
I wouldn’t really worry about that. Just learn to trade first. Personally I just want to use my own money. I don’t want investors and have to mentor people and have people bugging me about losing trades.

Which subscription of tradingview do you have?
Good video, subscribed.
Awesome, thank you!
love the recap!
🙏🏽
Question: is that CFD futures trading? Does your trading involve leverage? Thank you. Great video. Just subscribed.
futures like the title says. CFDs are illegal in the US
@@TheTravelingTrader I see. I didn´t know that. I´m European. Your channel is awesome! Congrats!

Sorry, Im new. So Buy Stop is where you stop losses and Buy Limit is where you take profit?
If you’re shorting yes
Ok what if you're long? What are those called?
@@bestmlmcompanies would be the same but sell orders
@10:10 what's my favorite word? lol great vid fam locked in

Google, TH-cam, paper trade

Supply and Demand the best strategy
Thanks for the content!
5:49 "When we trade, the main question we should ask ourselves is, 'Which direction is it going?' 😂 You can't make this stuff up! 😂"
What account size would I need to make these exact trades. I’ve traded options but want to get into futures
this is a $50K TopStep account. cost me $49 for the evaluation. i passed it and was given this account thereafter
Thanks for the analysis! 🔍 Need some advice: 🙏 I only have these words 🤔. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). Not sure how to use them, would appreciate help. 🙏
Do you always use Tradingview chart trading for futures trading ?
yes
I can I use that platform in south africa?
yes. you can also easily google this
Good stuff
Appreciate it
Why do you have to pay monthly for an account on topstep and a one time fee when u pass surely u just pay once for the account and the one time fee why pay monthly or is that just how it is you have to pay monthly?
Very nicely explained ..thank you Z
Glad it was helpful!
what platform do you use while traveling outside the USA?
Same
@@TheTravelingTrader which is?☺
Also that third trade you already secured a bag and cushion to be able to afford to have a wider stop. If you hadnt been up and that was your first trade of the day it would have been much better to not move your stop
For sure 💯
New to futures, and never used a stop loss, but ive seen it done.
- Why would you take out 2 contracts rather than leave them in, and simply move your stop loss down?
love it
A 10 point stop loss would be 500 per contract. 50x10 = 500 * 3 contracts = 1500 of risk
Not on NQ
how is the spreads and commissions i am currently trading forex with lower time frames exaclty like you but the spreads and commisssions eat almost all of the profit especially in the long run....maybe i should look into futures but i dont know the fees and spreads would be amazing if someone would tell me....appreciate it
Probably you should just stop trading all together. If you haven‘t backtested your strategy then there is absolutely zero reason to be trading.
Hey z. How is your topstep progress man i been waiting on an update bro please 🙏
Is he using ibkr connected to trading view
Great explanations, good info. Editing needs some serious help.
Precision Funding is the best prop firm out there
Precision funding is the best futures prop firm out right now
Precision funding is the best futures prop firm out, you can trade up to 25 accounts at one time
😂
Hi Z @thetravellingtrader ! What trading platform did you choose for your TopStep trading account? Thanks!
tradovate
Precision funding is the best futures prop firm in the industry
So, you are teaching ICT?
I’m teaching how I trade which incorporates ICT
Consolidation before manipulation before paydaytion... 😅
Can you trade NQ or any futures with $1k?
If you go the prop firm route, yes
I lost over $80k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits monthly . Thanks Alex for letting me know imbalance , stay consistent my friends
i wanna venture into the future market due to the propfirms .. im still collecting infos
Now, where's the real account you're supposed to be trading from? Tradingview is not the account, you could be trading from a demo account.
If u look at the bottom right it’s says Tradovate and it had a green light indicating the he is “live” instead of finding excuses why not take the info and use it to make money for your self
what are the up and down arrows
Orders
Lambo Raul Daddy 🎉🎉
Precision Funding is the best prop firm they don’t don’t do that bs. They’re 90% off no DCA penalties. Trades by Matt is a bum
What are DCA penalties
good

this guy went short last week lol
No dumbass. I sold some stock last week. Also what does that have to do with a day trade?
too many indicators too confusing didn't understand anything
I don’t have any indicators lol
Demo Fun...🤣
You don’t even know you have to close your positions before market close, you are not teaching, you have to learn first
Idiot. You don’t have to close your position before market close unless your prop form rules dictate it
As experienced trader, I have to tell you that you made so many mistakes on your last trade. Praying and eating nails is no way of professional trading.

oh i'm sorry, i meant 2k in 3 minutes
lol Fair value gap??? are you joking ? look at the pattern youre trading ... what a joke ... Hes gonna delete my comments..
This guy is a total scam. TRADING IS NOT EASY! Is a combination of mental edge, technical edge, risk management and position management.
Is this a bot? lol. I reiterate how hard trading is every chance I get. No need to get your panties in a bunch.
1800 usd huh? do you ever show how much you lost? THIS IS FAKE GURU.. DONT BELEIVE HIM...
