In this YouTube monologue, DB Bedford – the self‑styled “EI Guy” – demonstrates how he uses emotional intelligence (EI) to inform a 5‑minute futures scalping trade that generated $580 before 7 AM. He explains his scalping methodology (trading four $50 contracts, aiming for about five points a day, each point equating to $200), walks through the live bearish trade (entry at 23.45, first scalp at 44.9, second at 23.43, total profit $580), and discusses his risk‑management habits such as limiting trades to the first or second scalp of the day. Bedford deliberately withholds full instructional details, positioning the video as proof of concept and a teaser for a paid coaching program that will launch at the start of the new year. He frames day trading as an “EI trader” side‑hustle, emphasizing the current wealth‑transfer environment, the need for applied knowledge, and the benefits of leveraging money through futures contracts. Throughout, he urges viewers to subscribe, promises to teach a lifelong income skill, and stresses that his coaching will increase the probability of success without guaranteeing profits.

Peace, fam. DB Bedford here, the EI Guy, bringing you that emotional intelligence both personally and professionally. You know, I'm juiced because I done figured out a way how to leverage emotional intelligence into the financial markets. I'm gonna show you real quick how 5 minutes got me $580 before 7 AM. I can't help but to be excited about this and excited about the opportunity to teach you the exact same thing. Now there's a couple of things I want to address before I show you the trade. I know that a lot of people keep saying, I don't understand, like, when is the class? You know, what brokerage do I set up for? I am very intentional why I'm not giving you, uh, the information that you're asking for, because if I give it to you, you're gonna run off and try to do this on your own, and it's gonna cost you a lot of money. I've already paid what I like to call tuition to learn this stuff, right? I don't want you to do that. The only reason why I'm showing these videos is because I want to show you proof. A lot of people will tell you that they made this money in the stock market or in their businesses, but they won't show you how they did it. They'll tell you how you can do it, but they won't show you how they did it. So I'm going to show you how I'm doing it, then I'm going to show you how you can do it. I am going to be ready for coaching at the top of the year. I want you to get through the holidays. Trust me, I'm doing you a favor. I do not want to interrupt what you got going on for the rest of the year, because this is a money game, and a money game is going to require your attention and focus. So I don't want you distracted with anything else. So I know some of you will be like, forget that, put me in the game, Coach, I'm ready. Trust me, I'm doing you a favor. I've already been in this game long enough. I understand what it can do to you if you don't have the proper guidance and the coaching, and I want to make sure we get it right for you. So that is why you are only seeing how I'm doing it, because I want you to see how I do it. So when I show you how you can do it, you know, you get a better feel for it. And so for some of you, if you find it hard to believe, I get it. I'm not mad at you. But here's the thing that you got to pay attention to in life. One thing's for sure and two things for certain. Right now, the biggest wealth transfer is happening in our economy. And a lot of you are going to be sitting on the sideline. And whether you go crypto, whether you go stocks, Wherever you go with this, you got to get educated and you got to take your time with your education and you got to apply it. They say knowledge is power, but knowledge is only power when it's applied. I'm going to show you this quick trade. It took 5 minutes, $580, and I'm able to go about my business for the day. Go ahead, let's take a look at it. Okay, so today's trade is going to be a bearish trade. It's about 6:42. I'm in this trade. I came in at 2345. Right now you can see that it's at 2342. And so because we are scalpers, I want to go ahead and get that first point on the books. So I'm going to go down to 44.9 and get that first scalp. So you know that I go for 5 points a day. That'll be the first point of the day. A point represents a contract, right? We trade future contracts. Each one of my contracts are worth $50. I trade 4 contracts at a time, which means that every time I capture a point, that's going to be $200. So now I want to go for my second point because you see it's at 2342. So I'm going to come down to 2343 just because, again, we're scalpers and we want to follow the movement of the market. Okay, so that's the 2 points out of the 5 that I'm looking for for today. Basically, we're in a bearish, uh, trade right now, meaning the market is going down and selling off. That right there was my stop, right? I got stopped out because I scalped that point. So as you can see, that's $580 for the day. Now, uh, to me, that's a win. I like to try to get $1,000 for the day. I'll pay attention to see if this continues to go down, but in this moment I'm pretty much good. It's basically how the game go. It was a bearish run, it moved 10 points. I caught a couple of those 10 points on the way down. This looks like it's still going to be a bearish move, so I'm going to wait to see how these next few candles go. So basically what I learned in this game, I like to try to get my trades in my first or second trade. Uh, experience has taught me if you keep trading throughout the day, then you kind of increase your chances of losing. And so, you know our motto, we don't want to mess up our for-show money trying to get some more money. $580 from 6:38 to 6:43 is a win for me. That's 5 minutes of my time. It's not 7 o'clock yet. I can go on about my business for the day, and that's essentially what an EI trader is. Okay, so there you have it. Now again, becoming an EI day trader is something that I am encouraging you to consider. It is the ultimate side hustle. Starting a day trading business using future contracts is a very, very good way to start to grow your bank account. And what we're doing here is leveraging money. Now, if you've never leveraged money before, this is going to be a new concept to you. So that's why I need to take my time and break it down to you, is I'm going to show you how the money that you have right now, you can put it into a brokerage account and use that money as leverage to enter into the stock market, enter and exit a trade in short periods of time with the strategy that we call scalping. And so I need you to be patient with me, right? I need you to understand there's a reason why I am not giving you partial information, meaning like, go do this, go do that. I'm not giving you instructions because I'm not in teaching and coaching mode. I am in showing mode, but not showing to show off, showing you that it's real, that an everyday person like you and I can learn this. I know what it's doing for me, and so I want to give you real results and show you how I got those results so that when it's time for you to get in, you have a stronger belief about what we're doing. The financial markets have been here since day one, and most of us have not had an opportunity to benefit from it. I went out, got the information, baptism by fire, learned the ups and downs, the highs and lows. Now I'm packaging it up so that you don't have to go through the same thing that I went through. And if Follow my coaching is going to increase your chances of probability. I am not promising you that you're going to make a bunch of money. What I am promising you is that I'm going to teach you a skill that you probably didn't know that gives you an opportunity to earn additional income for the rest of your life from wherever you are. Please make sure you subscribe to the YouTube channel because the ultimate goal of AI Day Trader is to take small profits out the market and get on about your business for the day. I'll see you guys on the next one. Peace.
