Okay, so this video will be a little bit different. It's one of those spontaneous moments where, um, I'm in another room, I'm working out, I'm doing my fight camp workout, I'm watching the news and the feds are talking about the tapering. And I know that news drives the market, so I said to myself, let me— in between rounds, I said, let me go take a quick look and see what's happening in the market. And boy, as soon as I sat down, I see the market was pushing. So this is just piggybacking off earlier's trade where I got $935 and Now let's go take a look what happened. And so right now, if you look, I'm up $2,145. So let's go take a— let's take a look at what happened, right? So basically I took— I was in between my rounds, came in because I heard the news. I know that the news drives information. So from 11:04 to 11:06, in 2 minutes, I picked up another $1,210. Imagine that. So my— I was at $935 this morning, now I'm at $2,145 simply because this candle right here. And sometimes it's just, it's just timing. So if you're at the house and you just want to keep your charts up because you never know, look what's happening. My earlier trade happened here, okay, to put in perspective. This is where I got the $935. Then you can see for the rest of the day the market was kind of just chilling. Not going any particular direction, but I think as people were anticipating, waiting to see what the feds are going to say, as the news came in, it started to curb up and boom, whatever reason, the buyers decided that they wanted to get active. And you can see from 2146 up to 2165 right now, that's 20 points. I got in on this candle right here and captured what's there now. Could I get back in? I could, but I'm not. I just wanted to get that quick lick because I know news drives the market. I think that was a good lesson in terms of how opportunity can present itself if you tuned into the market. Now, if you happen to be somewhere where you got— I like to keep my laptop up even though I'll be done for the day, but I do keep the news on every chance I get, especially if I'm working out. Anytime I got the TV on, I'm paying attention to the markets because I know that news drives the markets. And when I heard the Fed's making decisions, I said, that's going to push the market one way or another. I didn't know which way it would be going, but I was right about one thing, that there was going to be some activity. So you see me jump in, 2 minutes, added $1,210 to today's profits. So now I'm up $2,145. It was 14 minutes earlier. 2 minutes today, 16 minutes, 21:45. This is why I'm talking about the EI Day Trader is the way to live. No fluff, no hype, just straight skill and executing. Catch you on the next one. Peace.
