Morning Routine Before Trading November 27, 2022 || ICT Inner Circle Trader Twitter Spaces
Oh my goodness. Two, two Twitter spaces in the same weekend. The end is near. That's the only, that's the only explanation. The end must be near . Well, good morning. Good morning everyone. So you're probably asking yourself, how on earth did he find a way back on the airways? Well, my wife decided to go with her family members to, to the outlets for shopping. So, , that's, uh, that's what's given me the opportunity. I asked, I said, well, you're getting to do what you wanna do. Can I, uh, can I get on there and ramble? Ramble on i c t? So, Ramblers, let's get rambling. So we are looking at a topic that, uh, many times I've been asked either in my private mentorship or people in Twitter, or people in the comment section of my videos, when I open up the comment section, they'll ask me, you know, what's my routine? And I've shared my routine on Twitter. I, I said pretty much what I do, what I eat, how I eat my meal plans, and what I do throughout the day, uh, that has been thrown into disarray with this whole house move here. There's been things that have challenged that schedule. So I've had to augment and change things. But the painters are done and we are waiting on the final pieces of furniture, which will be months away from now. But, uh, for the time being, we have pretty much everything that's gonna be here, at least through the holidays. So it's allowing a little bit of normalcy. I have to put everything together in my trading room, which is all sitting in the middle of the room under a sheet. So once that gets put together this week, I'll give you a tour. . So the, the routine in the morning, I think really what everyone's asking, cuz they really didn't care about, you know, the calories and the meals I eat and how I exercise and what stretching routines I do and all these types of things. That's, that's the boring thing. Nobody's interested in that. But I did share, it's on Twitter, but I think what they're asking for is what's my trading morning routine like, what do I do in the morning, like when I'm, before I sit down the charts, like what is going through my mind? What do I consider, what are things that are important to me as an analyst? What do I look for as a, a supportive structure, um, a resource? What resources do I use? Those types of things. And I, I kinda like, wanna talk a little bit about that today. And I know I'd like to be facetious and say, you know, I. Have a short one here.

How To Study ICT Properly November 26 2022 || ICT Inner Circle Trader Twitter Space
Transcript: Well, good morning folks. Good morning, . We've made it through the holiday of Thanksgiving and ICT keeps bringing gifts, gifts after the gift of the slow exit. . I'm the master of the long game, even with saying goodbye. No, but this really, honestly, this is gonna be my last discussion space for the year, and I want to kind of close things out with perspective, give you all a, uh, opportunity to go into a new year of studying. Prepare yourself for new experience. With me in live charting on my YouTube channel. So we'll be looking at uh, some pretty neat times ahead in 2023, we'll be rolling out some new concepts for the public and even for my private Mentorship that have never been taught. And you'll see some results that you haven't ever seen before as well. And I do so hope that the people that have been talking all this year and last year that we were gonna step, they're really gonna step cuz I'm waiting for it. So the topic of this space, while it will absolutely be brief, it must be brief cuz I'm under a time limit. My wife is absolutely insured that I will be shortened to the point today I wanted to cover how to properly study ICT. So my content obviously, Is enormous. It, it's a huge library of things that could easily intimidate the new startup. And while that's not my intention, it's not meant to keep you bogged down in continuous study. Uh, the 2022. This is the proper order. Okay? This is the definitive order that ends all requests for it. Okay. . I'll include it in my very first presentation in 2023 as well in video format. But basically, I'm gonna say it here in short, well, right to the point terms. If you have never really studied or if you were a casual viewer of my YouTube channel and you kinda like picked cherry picked moves and to. Video series or grab a video off of a, a suggested timeline from the YouTube Algorithm. That's the worst way to do it. Okay? That's the absolute worst way to do it. You need to sit down, number one, and come up with a mission statement. Why would you even wanna look at me or anyone else? Why would you wanna study? What brought you to me? Okay? There's a lot of things that people can say about me as a person and that person's flawed. I'm a human just like the rest of you, but my content is me being distilled into the essence of a trader, an analyst, an educator, a mentor. So your mission statement needs to be written out in a study. Now do this with whoever you go and you know, become a mentee under, okay. If you choose someone else as a mentor, you need to do the same thing. Okay? But you need to come up with a mission statement as to why you're even investing your time and energy into any, any individual. What brings value? Where's the value? Where's the source of interest? Where's the proof that there's someone that is worth listening to? Okay? So there was a long time where folks to something cuz I would deny them, I would, I would deny them live trading. I would deny that. And I did that for a very particular reason. Number one in the United States, I, I have the luxury of being protected by demo account education and the folks that would learn under. That can see through that and say, okay, if I can see it in a demo account and that's price, then it should work in a live account. And that invitation for you to test it was built in. So I don't, I don't want any of you to believe me. I want you to test what I said and teach. So that's what your mission statement should be for any mentor. Okay. You've seen enough to be inspired or inquisitive enough to go in to see what it is that makes that person worthy. Okay? So obviously this year you've seen lots of people step forward all around the world, different walks of life. They're doing it, they're proving that they're getting funded, they're proving they're taking money out of the marketplace, and they're crediting what they learned from me, and I'm very thankful and appreciative.

Final ICT Shotgun Saturday 2022 - November 19, 2022 | The Inner Circle Trader Twitter Space
Hello folks. Happy Saturday. This is gonna be the final i c t rant, , I'm, it's probably not gonna be a rant today. This is gonna be like a closing thoughts discussion and, and I don't have the time to do like questions and such as, I just wanna leave you with something before I go off into the, the sunset. Closing out 2022. I will be doing these again in 2023. So I guess in February, 2023, we'll be doing Saturday I c t shotgun Saturdays, whatever. But I wanted to talk a little bit about some of the things that you're gonna wanna lean on going forward and what you learned this year and what you'll learn in 2023 and what the future looks like going forward with our community. So obviously, you know, there was a lot of information laid in your hands this year. I gave you a really, a beautiful model and I regret that my daughter was not still interested in utilizing it. I just think , I just think she doesn't wanna do it no matter what it was I would've made for her to do it. I just think, you know, she's, her personality's not into it, you know, she's. She's a, a millennial , and she, uh, she likes the things, the way she likes 'em, and it's real hard to, to convert her mindset about things. So unfortunately, college has indoctrinated her into the thought processes, unfortunately, that I don't agree with in the majority of today's society. So still my daughter, half a lover and , but I wish that she would've been more inclined to learning how to use the model like all of you have. I'm proud of my son, Caleb. He's come a long way this year, and we're working towards getting him prepared to do his own live YouTube thing. Uh, there may be a lot of trial and error going forward with, uh, with that in 2023. I'm not promising that he'll be out there solo. Obviously he's, you know, he's just finding his footing and. I'm very proud of what he was able to accomplish this year. I'm thankful that his interest is still peaked and he's still chugging away at it and I believe that his success is rubbing off on the other ones. Okay. I think that, uh, my other sons, the younger ones that are with me still in the house, I think they're interested more now because they're like, you know, I wanna, I wanna do what Caleb is doing. I just wanna do that, that I don't wanna, I don't wanna go to college, I don't wanna do what everybody else is doing. So it's working. keep your prayers in for them. Okay. Caden and Cameron are, uh, slowly coming around. No, they've always, obviously they told their friends growing up when they were little, I'm gonna do what my dad does, but they really never had an act of interest in it cuz it's video games and kids and things like that. Anyone with children, you know what I'm talking about, but they're entering that age where they want to impress. They're significant. Others, they're girlfriends and their peers, their friends. And while they don't go to school publicly, they still have their little circles that they pal around with. And my, I don't generally like for them to talk about, you know, who I am and what I do. Uh, invariably it always creeps in because their appearance will ask you, what do you do? You know? And, uh, you know, I just gotta tell him I'm a superhero and I can't tell you everything . So anyway, this year's been wonderful. I've had so much fun. I've been able to, uh, cut loose a little bit and be, uh, foot loose and fancy and free in front of all of you. And I've enjoyed that. I've seen some posts saying that they may be shutting Twitter down, and I mentioned the other day on Twitter and, and being facetious obviously, um, that. Should Twitter go the way of, uh, the dinosaurs? I don't know if that's gonna happen. Okay. I was just reading some of the, the posts and some of the things that Elon was doing, and if by chance, you know, this app goes, you know, see you later and close it down or whatever, I don't, I don't think it will, but in the event that it does, I'll just go right back over to the YouTube community post and I'll open up the comment sections for that area.

Shotgun Saturday With ICT - November 13, 2022 | The Inner Circle Trader Twitter Space
Well, good afternoon. Welcome back to another Saturday shotgun with I C T. This one probably won't be that long. I'm a little uncomfortable today, but, and you'll probably hear all kinds of banging about above, but it is what, it's things can't get done without breaking some eggs, I guess. Huh? So yesterday morning, , I told myself all week, Don't lift anything. Don't do anything. You know, let them do everything. Nope. I had to be helpful, , and I helped them throw in my back out. So I'm in a little bit of discomfort today. So trying not to do too many things. Even sitting in one place is painful. Standing is hurting, it's a mess. But anyway, I wanna talk to you about the, this past week and what might be, On the horizon and now that might affect the markets going into the close of the year. So we've seen the dollar index, it's dropped off a lot. And I mentioned, I'm not sure if it was the last Twitter space or the one before. It was within the last two that I did. I mentioned how Saudi Arabia was, uh, lining up with, uh, the, the Bricks Nation you coalition, if you wanna call it that, where they're, uh, basically, you know, telling the US pound sand , you, everybody's gonna gonna get a good price. But, uh, I c t I mean, not I t but America, they're not getting, uh, a good deal on, on fuel or oil when we don't really need their oil anyway. You know, we have plenty of oil here and we could tell everyone you. See you later. And we can actually go into the export business and do very well as well. But it just goes to show you how corrupt everything is. But because our dollar is a pet is a petro dollar, it is backed by nothing. And years ago, our nation went to Saudi Arabia and said, Hey look, you know, we're gonna protect you . Nobody was threatening him at the time, but we're gonna, we're gonna protect you from threats. All you gotta do is sell your oil in dollars. So anybody wants to buy your oil, they must convert it to the US dollar. So when we were taking off the gold standard, our currency was worthless, Like it was literally nothing. And then now it's backed by the oil market through Saudi Arabia. A lot of people don't realize that or understand that, but now we are in a position where the perfect storm is brewing. The. And my private mentorship has known about this for a while. I've, I've talked about it publicly as well in the last year. They have obviously weaponized food and the production of food. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, just do a little research and homework. And a lot of people denied me, you know, the stage talking about early on when nobody else was talking about it, they thought it was lunacy.

Shotgun Saturday Beneath The Surface October 15 2022 || ICT Inner Circle Trader Twitter Space
Hi folks. Sorry for my tardiness, but I do know that you can't fire me. So , I c t does, but I c t does. So anyway, this is also the reason why I didn't do well working one of the people because, uh, having a boss that told me I had to show up at a specific time, I can go home at a specific time. I can have off a particular week for vacation competing with Carl What's this guy talking about? Carl? Who's Carl? Just somebody I just pulled out of the thin air being facetious. And now here I am. There's another deer. Good grief. See that Santa Claus, you can't be Santa Claus without reindeer. Okay, I need chocolate chip cookies and milk and we're we're set then. So anyway, why was I late? Cause I'm sure inquiring minds wanna know. Well, the boss who I introduced you to this morning, last minute said, uh, we have to take our boxers for a ride. So I could not object. It was the way it was and I thought I had my cell phone with me to tell you. I says, well, I'll let 'em know. I'll send out a tweet and let 'em know I'll be a little bit late. But, you know, the boss said, let's go. So I had to leave and I left my phone on the ottoman at home. So we got back a little bit ago when I got on Twitter, and now here I am. So yes, my dogs are very spoiled. Uh, we took 'em out in, uh, The back of the pickup truck and we just drive around with them and let 'em look at the cows and the scenery. They love it. So I wanted to talk a little bit about what you saw this past week and what we're probably gonna see over the next coming weeks. So I'm sitting here thinking about what some of you probably didn't understand in regards to the quote unquote liquidity void. Uh, I kind of like wanna clear some rumors up a little bit in this conversation as well. And you're probably gonna hear an ambulance here in a second, or maybe not. It's always drama on these things when I'm going live road rage reindeer coming outta nowhere. So the liquidity. That I drew your attention to on the ES when we had that real big sharp displacement lower, uh, the other day. That is an actual liquidity void. Okay. Um, over the years, because I've made mention of liquidity void, uh, it was a term that people brought up when I was on Baby Pips and Baby Pips members over there mentioned that, uh, you know, that's a term that, uh, Chris Laurie uses. So back then, because I was teaching, I understood what they were trying to draw attention to, but I had every intentions of talking about it like you recently saw this week. And in fact, what you don't realize is, is that actually was taught for the very first time to even my private members, like they don't really understand. The imbalance to the degree like that lesson was shown. I mean, they know there's sell side delivery, buy side delivery and imbalance, A sibi busy. But what is actually going on inside that that you don't see without having a very, very short timeframe, like a second chart or a 15 second chart, something to that effect. You won't really see those gaps because a one minute chart and a one minute candle will smooth all that out. So it looks just simply like, well, just a down candle or an up candle. And you have probably looked at these things for a long time and never really seen any kind of relevance to the insight behind it. And just beneath the surface, there's the very things that's been hidden from you. So when you hear these folks out there talk about time charts are useless, Well, if you're going to try to use time charts in your particular model that doesn't use time charts, then that would probably be a true statement. But time charts, time-based charts are very influential in terms of teaching what it is I teach that is algorithmic. Because the first principle with price delivery is what time, then price. So everything has to work around the element of time, certain times of the day, certain timeframes, time of the month, time of the year, you know, all those time influences have a major impact on what price is doing. And it has absolutely nothing to do with fundamentals because we're talking about price delivery on a very short term timeframe.

Volatility Romance, October 14 2022 || ICT Inner Circle Trader Twitter Space
Well, well, well finally, , finally ICTs come back to ict, uh, ICTs Twitter spaces. They were trying to keep me from signing on with you fine folks tonight. This is a third time. The third fucking time, man. It takes three times. They don't want me talking to you. They don't want me tickling your ears with all this goodness. I see the goodness . Anyway, what the hell is going on in the markets? That is amazing. That's amazing. Volatility today. And let me just tell you, I mentioned earlier in the year, I said that we would see some pretty insane volatility. And when you look at a daily chart of the e, s and P. You, you really can't appreciate how much insanity took place today. Okay, 30 years folks. 30 years I've been doing this and I have never seen such monstrous volatility. Now, I would be lying to you if I said I'm not trying to cowboy up in this environment, cuz I am absolutely , I am absolutely fighting that urge. Like today I was trying to do things that would otherwise be frowned upon by me as a mentor. Obviously I'm kind of glad in a lot of ways that I wasn't able to pull it off cuz if I would've done it and pulled down a, a pretty big win. It would've probably inspired some of you young guys in here to try to do something like that too. And that would be the worst thing I could have done. So just know that because I felt those impulses. And don't worry, I'm gonna send a, a screenshot and short little recording. You can see I didn't do any other additional trades. There's people in the inner webs saying that, uh, I hid the rest of my trading day and I probably blew out. You guys never, never end, just keep doing stupid stuff. But anyway, I didn't do anything more than the 28 75 that you saw today. And I'm so thankful, and I mentioned this in the short, little did, I'm so thankful that the Lord allowed me to get out because what you don't know is I was sitting with Caleb and I explained to him, I said, listen, you know, I'm gonna go long here and I wanna see these buy stops taken out. And I had my limit order at 45 and a quarter. Initially and something was nudging on me saying, you know, just, just wait. Bring it down, take about a thousand dollars out of it, actually try to get out before the high's taken out that I was showing you. And then to see if you can nail the, the short. And I was like, nah, I'm not gonna do that. But this time I rolled the limit back up and I literally just, just by a little bit went below the previous time. So I was below 45. I don't think I would've gotten out. Now, I don't think personally that I would've been able to hold on to the point where it was too late, cuz it did gimme a few, you know, a minute or so before this, a monstrous, you know, gap where there was a real liquidity void where I showed you today. But, uh, that would've been painful. You know, not that much money. I mean, money's money, but it would've been a bruise to my ego cuz my son was sitting next to me and I, I was literally telling him, watch, this is what's gonna happen. It's gonna go up here. I'm gonna buy it, I'm gonna sell short, and I'm gonna write it down to the 35 70 I talked about on Monday. Okay. So, um, that was our objective for the week. That was what we were looking for, and it hit it and went through it a lot. And that's fine. So again, we, we had the bias right for the week. We had the draw on liquidity. We wanted that lower, low on the daily, it ripped its throat out, shook it until there was nothing left in terms of life. The fair value got that I showed you on the weekly chart was just brilliant in terms of offering a discount array. Now, which brings me to the million dollar question, which is, Everybody wants to know, is this the bottom? Is this the low I C t? I don't personally believe so. Now, the reason why is because we had relative equal lows on the daily chart. Those relative equal lows needed. It needed to be taken out. Now it doesn't mean it's gonna run through them and just keep on going lower. See, these are perfect little traps. These are opportunities for these market makers that are sitting in here right now that are absolutely in there manually intervening because there's lots of money right now.

Friday Night ICT & Chill, September 24 2022 || The Inner Circle Trader Twitter Space
Everybody's doing well. I just realized I didn't capitalize the c and t in my I C t's flaring, and it's not starting off on a good foot, is it? So obviously we've had, uh, a pretty eventful week. So we've seen several large trades this week and we've seen people come in and claim that's, you know, and you've seen me put that to bed too. And you also now seen proof of what I talked about in my private mentorship. I said, if you start running up big, like consistent days and, and you start really smashing it, they're gonna step in front of you, okay? They're gonna do things to keep you from being consistent. And I shared the first account of it where I was in the trade and I tried to put the stop on and the target on and it wouldn't do it. So, I just elected to, you know, just close the trade below the recent loan. You saw that this week it went lower, even though I went to where I was calling it, I just couldn't focus. So last night and all through today, I took, uh, a pretty good amount of trades and I would've had an enormous windfall day. Today I planned on peacocking and running around , showing my, uh, myself out real well tonight. But, uh, obviously you can see the Tom Fuller, that amp and the boys in Chinatown were pulling on good o i c t. So it's hard to argue with that kind of stuff when you see it. Like I'm literally trying to do everything I can to close that position. I try to do partials all the way down, and there's more to that, more trades as well, but, you know, just for the sake of not having to sit down and edit all the times where I was toggling through, um, different monitors and I have pictures of my family and as you know, backgrounds on some of 'em. So I just made it easy to show you the heart of the, the trade where it was going down and I was trying to take eight of the contracts off of the 10 and all the bullshit that, uh, their, their customer service dude, I don't think that guy was even reading the email, correct. Like when I was reporting it to their, uh, I guess it's their trade desk management, I guess I thought it was a person TDM amp Futures or amp clearing.com. I got some guy named Charles. I got back. So Charles was not in charge today. , he had no help for me whatsoever. Uh, his email responses gave me the impression that he was thinking that I was trying to trade more contracts than I should have been allowed. Where I'm above 10 contracts, I've done more than 10 contracts. So that's bullshit that, that doesn't fit this, uh, issue. The issue was, is I couldn't close open positions and I seen some of you in the responses saying that you had similar situations like that and you rectified it by doing the cancellation of the pending orders. Like take the stop off, take the limit off, and then you can do partials.I did all that and remember I was doing these all night long and it had nothing to do with the brackets, even though they put that little disclaimer saying, oh, the brackets might not work. Okay. It didn't work Even when it was just a position, like I couldn't close it at all and I had several positions. I was up and down all night long. I was all over that market and every time it would give me a position that was really, really in my. It just would not let me out of it. Wouldn't let me out of it. So I went down into the ledger and tried to close it that way, where you just go to the far right of the, the trade that's open, there's a little X there. You click that neck and close the position. Nope, wasn't having that either. So it's some bullshit. That's what it is. And that's fine. You know I don't give a fuck these people . I'm already fucking rich. Now I don't need your fucking little Mickey Mouse fucking trading accounts. I don't need. I don't need all that stuff. I've done all this just to prove to you all. And the boy down in Texas keeps on talking to his bullshit, Mr. I'm gonna try to use five fucking accounts and Robin's cop, Vinny, let's make it very plain. While everybody's attention is at the highest point, I will do one contract account, period. I will show you my full account, the fucking opening balance, and I expect you to do the same thing you said.

September 2022 FOMC discussion, September 22 2022 | ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Twitter Space
All right. So anyway, today we had fmc and as a reminder, I know a lot of you are coming in at different times finding this community and discovering who I am and wondering who the hell I am, , why am I doing all this? And it's easy to get caught up into thinking, well, you know, he's probably trading FMC today and doing the morning session and trading this and trading that. Uh, actually I wasn't, I didn't do anything this morning. FMC is a high impact news driver that you can get caught up real easy. And as I alluded to on my tweets a little while ago, before coming onto the live stream here, that in 1993 I blew out a few accounts that year. That was my second year of trading. I had just a single day event of trading in 1992, my very first, so into, uh, trading, these old 50 year old bones are cracking. And I took a few months off and then started in 1993 and came to. A shocking discovery that certain days of the month weren't that good for what I was trying to do, which was guess . So as a young 20 year old, I was baptized in the fires of manipulation and I got really interested in trying to figure out what that day was going to do. And I subscribed to all kinds of things back then. You know, I bought books, I signed up the services 900 numbers that were gonna tell you what that report was gonna do the, the night before and it never pan down. It was always a resulting blown account or major draw down or just simply never getting the fill. Early on, I didn't have any experience where it was positive trading these types of days. But I got caught up with thinking I was gonna figure it out, you know, and I wanted to try to capture all the moves, like the up the down and know exactly what was gonna happen. And years later I discovered that I didn't need to do those trading days at all. And later on, I'm talking like 10 years later, I discovered how these algorithms that are utilized in these marketplaces, how they implement certain things that I've made, you know, discussions about over the years in recent time, so we can kind of like see what it is that they do and how they behave. And it's not important for me to try to trade in the morning. I mean I can, it had a really nice fair value gap and it performed very well. And there's gonna be times where it simply does that. And that's also what caught me off guard when I was first starting how to, you know, learn how to trade and like to 19 19, 19 93, I believed that I could trade every swing high in love if I just figured out what those other guys knew. And the other guys at the time I was thinking were the people that were writing books. The same books that we're selling for $20 and $25. They were gonna give me the secrets to the marketplace, making it so accessible for a low, low price of what would cost really for two litter, bottle of soda and a large pizza from Papa John's. Now, that's not a plug for Papa John's, by the way. . Oh, he's got ads now. He's got, he's doing ads now and, and it's Twitter space. The, um, the move today, I didn't get back into a house until, good grief. It was like minute or two, right before two o'clock, my local time, New York time. And I sat down with my youngest son. I told him to watch what happens and I was expecting it to drop down, which it did. And then I told him, I said, look, it's gonna run up air and take out their other eagle highs and go back to a bearish breaker. Now he doesn't know what a breaker is, and I didn't have the time to point to it, but if you look at your five minute chart, you'll see that the rally up, it went right into that bears breaker.

How To Remove Lipstick From Your Collar September 10, 2022 || ICT Inner Circle Trader Twitter Space
Can you come on my live stream? Can you come on my show? Can I do this? Can I do that? And most of the time I just ignore it. There's a gentleman out there, Aaron Corbs. I've been pushing, trying to get him to grow an audience. Cause I think what he's been trying to do, which has been admittedly of a struggle for him, and he's admitted that, but it's also something that I can relate to because I have obsessive compulsive disorder. Once I have something that's on my mind, it's like that piece of meat stuck between your teeth, your tongue just keeps going back to it. So if it's the good thing, it's, that's not a problem. But if it's a bad thing, then I feel like I gotta at least keep going back and keep packing and just do what I did this year. Everything you can do, I can do better, and I can prove it with cash. Live accounts, precision, perfect highs and lows. Weekly highs and lows, daily highs and lows, undeniable. And amongst all those things, in the few seconds that it takes me to treat Twitter, like you are all one of my closest friends and I share something like it takes you just a second out of your day, some friend, some family member, an employee, a boss, send you a text message, is your day completely upside down and come to a complete halt because you stopped and responded with a text? No, your day just keeps on going. So many of you don't realize it, but you're in my pocket all day long and if something comes up, if I see something that's been tweeted, either gets a wild hair up my ass about something I see. Or if I just wanna encourage someone or give 'em a high five saying, you know, keep doing what you're doing. Or if I point to something, I think it's gonna unfold in the marketplace. I pick up the phone, I type it out, I'll snap a chart and share it. But this week has been, uh, it was hard. This is a difficult week for me. I had been trying to be a good husband to my wife, which is a normal thing, but we're trying to land this property. I've been working on it since July when he first listed it, and I had an signed offer in July. And then I pulled outta that offer because we found out that it had a conservation easement and the septic system was encroaching upon that. And I wanted to have some surveys done and inspections done, and I didn't trust that the, the property would have those things. In my favor because our listing, or not our listing, our buying agent recommended that we didn't buy it because I have a class a RV and, uh, rv not, it's not a cheap one, it's not like a Winnebago type thing. It's a pretty high end unit, and I wanted to be able to bring that to that property. And she said that it's probably not a good idea to get the property cuz it doesn't look like they allow that. So there is no HOA there. But we were made to believe that there was because of the paperwork. Long story short, you're probably all getting bored already with this, but I ended up outbidding another buyer and $2 million property in this kind of climate. There's not a lot of people out there trying to do that. At least not in, uh, har County. The property sat there for a little while and I put a second offer in. Now I knew they were entertaining another offer, so I went in a little bit higher than I was. Originally offering, they wanted $1,975,000 as their lowest one. I, I contacted them privately and said, listen, what's your lowest to take and seal the deal up? That was the number they gave me. So that went in with that offer. The only other offer they had was coming in with no inspections, all cash. Well, I was all cash anyway, so to beat them out, to make sure they didn't need to entertain them anymore.

CFTC RULE 4.41 – HYPOTHETICAL OR SIMULATED PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE CERTAIN LIMITATIONS. UNLIKE AN ACTUAL PERFORMANCE RECORD, SIMULATED RESULTS DO NOT REPRESENT ACTUAL TRADING. ALSO, SINCE THE TRADES HAVE NOT BEEN EXECUTED, THE RESULTS MAY HAVE UNDER-OR-OVER COMPENSATED FOR THE IMPACT, IF ANY, OF CERTAIN MARKET FACTORS, SUCH AS LACK OF LIQUIDITY. SIMULATED TRADING PROGRAMS IN GENERAL ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE DESIGNED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFIT OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN
Trading performance displayed herein is hypothetical. Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance trading results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. This can occur, for example, when the market makes a “limit move.” The placement of contingent orders by you, such as a “stop-loss” or “stop-limit” order, will not necessarily limit your losses to the intended amounts, since market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders.
