He sets strict risk management rules, analyzes multiple coin charts, and struggles with emotional control and market manipulation. ### Key Points - **Risk rules defined** [02:02] — Sets $100 risk per trade and $500 daily loss limit. Will stop trading for the day if losses exceed $500. - **DASH trade entry** [03:40] — Enters long on DASH based on daily chart bottom, stop at 1.2% below recent low, take profit at $39 (3.7% gain). Volume selection for $100 risk. - **LAB trade analysis** [06:51] — Considers LAB for long but notes it's risky due to potential scam. Later enters short expecting a dump. - **MRV missed entry** [09:20] — Identifies a good setup on MRV but enters too late; decides to leave it for observation. - **SIREN trade logic** [10:00] — Analyses SIREN as a pump-and-dump coin, enters long but gets stopped out. Later the coin reverses up. - **Another trade enters** [12:58] — Enters a long on another instrument (BLS or similar) with 1:4 risk/reward, but gets stopped out. - **Final loss tally** [22:28] — All six trades closed at a loss, total -$540. Blames market manipulation and changed market conditions. ### Conclusion The trader ends the day with six consecutive losses, questioning his strategy and noting that past successful setups no longer work in the current manipulated market. He plans to continue but with caution. ## Transcript This will be the first day that I will be able to trade normally, adequately, and beautifully. Hope. Let's see what comes out of all this. I will show you all my Before opening a position, first explain everything completely. The video might be a bit drawn out, a bit conversational. I just want to add a little, so to speak, clarity to the previous video . I also want to thank you very much for your comments. You have written a lot of them. This really motivates me to sit down, take my trades, and not sit in silence. By the way, many people were in favor of the community, that it was worth creating it, that it was worth leading some kind of community. But again, guys, I think that if I start creating a community, imagine how many people will flock there who just want to hang out there for free, and it will turn out to be nonsense, it will turn out to be some kind of scam. To be honest, I don’t have any desire to make it paid yet. Yes, and plus I'll see for myself. If I still can’t control my emotions, community. And so, in general, I want to say a big thank you to you, because I see that many people have problems like mine. The fact is that many people also have problems and don’t open the terminal. Again, please understand that to motivate you to return to trading. I'm just showing my path, that right now I'm trying to get back into this niche and step on the gas. Someone even wrote that you are Morgenstern, but in the world of rating. nice. , but nevertheless, we’ll prepare ourselves for the worst, and then we’ll see how it goes still need to think positively, but nevertheless, we look at reality, because I can let myself fly in the clouds somewhere, but if I am initially set up, so to speak, not particularly, yes, then in general, even if I lose this deposit, it will not be scary. The second important point. I told you yesterday that I will have 100 dollars per risk per transaction until I reach at least 10,000 dollars from the balance that I have right now . I haven't had any deals yet. In the end, I'll need to include TMmmM in the diary , because I don't really like Tiger's diary, so that everything would be nice to show you. Eh, but nevertheless, the second point is the risk per day. If I lose $500 in one day, that's it, I'm not trading. I'm not interested in trading. If I try to sit it out, wait it out, there was a funny comment somewhere, like, the first day we trade, eh, we don’t trade, the second day we don’t trade, on the third day oh, like, damn, that comment. Well, let's see if this person's predictions come true. But nevertheless, thank you all so much for writing comments, guys. This is very, in short, motivating. But now that I've already told you what my risk is per transaction, my risk per day, we need to add a third point - some kind of income that will insure us. Income - it would be possible to create a real community, get some subscriptions from there and that would be nice. And everyone benefits from this, because deals are posted, people control each other , everyone watches each other, there are some briefings, streams, it's all cool. But for now, let's move away from this , and see if we can get going without some kind of, so to speak, passive component, which we will have on the side, namely in the monitors, uh, get going. Well, now let's move on to trades, because today I found quite a lot of situations that can be traded. I like das, I probably want to try it. What is the logic here? This tool was heavily leaked. On the daily chart it just looks like some kind of absolute bottom. But nevertheless, on the daily candles we see what we bought. They stabbed the very bottom, uh, bought it off. On the watch we see that we flew out beautifully from this lower side. Now they have become a trading place. Let's look at the trade. The trading situation here is quite beautiful , in principle, it’s what I used to trade before. In principle, it’s more or less the same, but I’ll explain it nonetheless. There are resistance levels, active, long and, roughly speaking, trend. Here we don't have updated minimums, as you can see. I could even try to take a risk and put a stop behind the lowest minimum, but it might get knocked down, so I want to put a stop behind this minimum. It would be possible, of course, to do it for the trade, , they will most likely demolish the ones below as well. Let's see how it all works out risk management, it turns out to be very, I would say, cool, because for the dash, my stop is 1.2%, and the take is at least 3.7. Here, even with the naked eye, the ratio of e is visible to be greater than 1 kt. Therefore, we need to select the volume right now. We take 1.2, take into account the commission, this average stop will be 1.4. According to my calculations, if I did everything correctly calculations, if I did everything correctly , I should come in at $7,000. I click on the first [music] position, I click twice, that's it, I'm hooked, I've I get stopped out, my stop should be a maximum of $100. This is what I need. Yes, of course, it wo n’t be possible to earn much here, even n’t be possible to earn much here, even if it works out, but nevertheless, we will count on a good outcome. This is the first trade I'm opening in a long time. I plan to exit at around $38-39. That is, in fact, an exit from a trading pattern plus some other upward movement. However, the potential of this situation, in principle, is the width of this roughly estimate, the potential here is about $40. But we won't be greedy, so I would close the position at $39. However, I will do it differently. I'll take it straight away for the high. I'll high. I'll throw off about half of the position and also throw off about half of the position and also throw off the rest of this position by three tenths. So somewhere around here I’ll put myself, uh, even here I’ll put myself, and I’m actually looking at the market and it seems like there are a lot of beautiful situations for trading. The same thing with ytcoin, it basically looks like crap, so I chose dasш. Hey , this coin looks interesting. There are just so many coins that I want to somehow get into and trade. The same Pepin. Eh, but here the risk is 5%, the potential, I don’t know, 30. Whether he will fly out like that, I don’t know, it’s doubtful. I was looking at this tool yesterday, and it basically crashed. That is, it seems as if there is a lot to trade, but it is not clear how. The same lab. Right now I'm considering it for long. I might even get into that position now, but it's a really scary tool because at any moment it could just flow like one stick and start scamming. It's possible, even from this point, I don't know from what point he will start his scam right at the bottom, but I would probably like to try to langauge in the lab at least with an over-high for some local maximum. Why? The instrument grows as a whole. There was a fall here, it was bought off. The fall was bought off again. And overall, there seems to be a not yet been collected. Too many stops. I would honestly like to short this instrument myself, even with the first or second leverage, without a stop, and just stand there and wait for it to finally scam. This will happen sooner or later. But I don't know if there will be a shot before everyone gets scammed . However, I'm betting on it . Plus, it has pretty good potential. ? I want to stop at the beginning of this impulse. impulse. We have an even more detailed exit, there is a trading situation where we have highs above that have not yet been updated. Perhaps it would be worthwhile to simply short with a stop behind this maximum, but then the potential would have to be expected to be much greater. But I'm not sure about this, but it seems to me that it's more logical to take a small stack. We fought our way to this market for the sake of the market, but we still ended up returning to it. Yes, we're not holding up very well yet, but nevertheless, the risk and profit here, in my opinion, are much greater and it's worth a try. Here our risk is 1.8, almost 2 million percent, so we can enter with approximately 5,000 dollars, and this will be more or less what we need in terms of risk. So, I'll immediately go ahead and set a So, I'll immediately go ahead and set a stop-loss here. And the potential, well, at least here I see 10%, that is, you see, 2% risk, take. Well, at least nine. But again, I will look at everything depending on the situation. For now I'll just take it, throw it, I don't know, here randomly stop, because I can now move somewhere, I won't watch the position, it will remain, and we'll see what comes of it. In fact, we enter a position not even on one shoulder. That is, we entered the lab one shoulder. That is, we entered the lab there - on shoulder 07. Here we have entered one shoulder, and we still have a lot of free space. I lot of free space. I also liked this situation regarding the MRV coin. However, here I wanted to enter at this very point, but while I started recording the video , as you can see, the instrument flew away. And now I'm going to enter with a 5% risk, with a potential of 16. Although, maybe it's even worth trying one in three, but as if I don't know. That is, I’ll just leave it for observation, because I’d like to go in, but my hands are itching. We still need to find something more adequate. One more coin. This is the Siren coin, also extremely incomprehensible. He just goes pump-tamp, pump-pump. And if you haven't guessed how this person thinks, uh, who moves this whole coin, then, in principle, you won't be able to make money on it . But what I personally see is that . But what I personally see is that since the coin was launched mm upwards, uh, even lifted from such a low, it was accelerated, perhaps they will accelerate it even higher, but most likely it has one outcome, uh, about the same as the coin of paws - that it will be scammed right to the very bottom. It's just, I don't know, well, it's just a terrible flood. Will it be from this point? Maybe. However, this very moment is a little alarming and makes it clear to me personally that, most likely, we will still have a move higher, because here we were in a trading range, in principle, we could have gone higher, but then some sales happen, everyone is knocked down, they return back to this range, we move back away from this range and it seems that’s it . That is, short, place a stop behind these highs and just wait for a fall. Personally, I see that it is possible to go long here now. I don’t know, perhaps with a stop at least beyond this minimum. And I also potentially see a good situation. This is where I keep this tool. Here it is open. There is a stop here . Wow, such a big stop, 3.5% . Yes, the stop is 3.5%, but . Yes, the stop is 3.5%, but the potential in this situation is 15%. That is, approximately 1 to five. And this is the minimum, most likely, yes, there will be a loss. But again, right now, looking at the market, this is the probably want to enter, because even there was a low, they repricked it, and bought it off sharply. And now is a pretty good point to stop by. Therefore, I will still go for 3%. This means we need to go to about 3 s500. So, we entered 1,000. For three. And let's load some more. 500. Loaded to capacity. That's it, we've entered 3s too. We immediately put a stop sign somewhere right here. And that's basically it. By the way, we even have some volume in support . Although this is not such a large volume, there are 877,000, but looking at the glass, this is at least some more or less volume. It seems like I chose the best tools. Perhaps I would also like to go to Pipin , but I won’t go here . I don’t like the situation here at all, because if you open the daily chart, it’s the very bottom, and there at the bottom, uh, trying to langauge something, I don’t know. In short, I have no desire to enter the pip, but nevertheless, the deal would be plus or minus the same as for all other instruments. It is what it is . Here's another one about glitter, by the way, maybe I should open another glitter. Although no, here the stop turns out to be very large. If it approaches the lower limit, maybe I'll look for some point. Unfortunately, the first deal closed at a loss. True, it closed more than I expected, by as much as $117. Why the extra 17 bucks? Where did they go? In short, it’s not clear. Now I have found another interesting position. This will probably be the last deal, I think, for today, because nothing is clear about these positions yet , but in general, the situation seems cool. That is, here we see some kind of long-term downward trend. The instrument keeps falling. And now on the watch we see as if it has already settled somewhere below. Plus, if you take into account that Bitcoin, in principle, is also turning around in a similar way. Look here. I'll just show you for comparison that Bitcoin was also falling and falling. Here he came out abruptly, that is, even bitcoins. Plus, there's this situation with Ethereum, this situation with Link, in short, there's already a similar story with many coins . But in terms of the instrument, it was as if we simply fell, although we didn’t fall that hard . Nevertheless, they put it in the side. And I would probably like to see some kind of breakout from the sideways trend. I'm planning to go in for now. Stop, that makes I'm planning to go in for now. Stop, that makes 15%. Let's go here, I think, for thousands, probably, but why? But for the market you need to click on it from above. You see, I just have n't traded for a long time, I'm so cuckoo. In short, that's it, I've reached 6,000. In principle, in terms of risk, this should be plus or minus exactly what I don’t need. But nevertheless , in short, that's how it is. Why did you put a stop in this place? If we open the hourly time frame, I simply placed it behind the hourly candle, behind the body of the hourly candle. This may be stupid, but as I understand it, if we still lower the body of the candle on the hourly chart, this is still with some candlestick patterns, with all this nonsense, then there is no point in standing there. four o'clock. The fact that we are hiding because of the four-hour delay. We hide from behind the sentry, from behind the body. This could be partly called absorption patterns there could be partly called absorption patterns there , but in fact, it’s just, technically, a very nice position in terms of breaking out the slope. I don’t really trade the inclinations themselves, but nevertheless, I just look at this position, I look at Bitcoin on Ethereum, I see how everything has already grown there and looks really beautiful. Where will it go? Well, I don't know. Well, at least it should update, I think, the nearest one. Hey yo-moyo, the dog is running here and there. He thought all day about whether to go and buy a plot of land or not. That's it, I think, it's time to start building a house. I don’t know, I don’t need this, I don’t need to get into this topic, I don’t need to get into it . Is this topic profitable? So, in short, let's take a look. Our stop loss was something like one and a half percent, and our take profit was 3 percent, but it seemed like it was not enough. One to two. Well then we'll see how things play out . But at a minimum we need to . But at a minimum we need to set 4.5% so that it would be at least one to three. That is, for now I’ll stop somewhere in this place, and then we’ll see what happens depending on the first level I would have gone into breakeven and would have looked at the actual situation to see what would happen next. I found two more interesting situations with the Bles instrument, but I had been watching it for a long time, from the very beginning of the day. I'll get into position right now . 2.5%. I need to throw in about 5,000, right? That's it, they threw in the volume. We immediately set it to 100s the instrument is simply growing. Constantly growing. I also wanted to take a stop at this point at growing. I also wanted to take a stop at this point at flown away a lot. For me, of course, this is already a wake-up call, yes, the fact that I am now trying to enter the last hijacking, but nevertheless, it looks good. resistance levels, uh, levels at the round 01. And basically, it's like this last correction before it starts to go up. on risk management. Now we've seen 2 with pono, potentially I see here, well, at least 10 percent. That is, one in four here at least. Whether four here at least. Whether this will happen or not, I don’t know. But judging by today's trading, things are just not going well for me at all. Now they'll also not going well for me at all. Now they'll also close my paws, because I went long. And let me show you the losses that have already occurred. I had five trades open today. It turns out that the siren knocked me out and the instrument went up. Well, that is to say, they took it out, yes, not vlogs, but nevertheless, roughly speaking, they came for me. Now the instrument has turned around and moved further higher. I don't know where he'll go next. The next tool is Ena, who knocked me out. They knocked out the same thing, removed my stop, and turned around. And now, in principle, again, it looks good. I don't know if there will be a continuation of the lab. Yes, I see, I already have Ilab closed 112 dollars in minus. I just don't understand. It seems like I'm going in to get a stop of $100. For some reason my stop is more than 100 dollars. I don't understand what the joke is. Either I'm simply calculating the volume incorrectly, or something. But this is already the second position where my stop is $10 more than necessary. Although, if there is no commission, then, in principle, it is, well, plus or minus the same numbers. You see, I pay a lot in commission and get cashback from the commission. Therefore, the link to Tiger and the exchanges where I trade will be in the description. Well, that's it, basically, I have two positions left. Everything is based on mistakes. These are the mistakes I made. None at all . If there had been, let's say, the same market phase that existed earlier, say, a year ago, when I was trading, then all these year ago, when I was trading, then all these transactions would have worked out. But now you just come in, they film the barks, re-film them 10 times, re-film them and only then they go. That is, you would have gone long here, you would have waited for the highs to update, it would not have updated the highs, you would have, well, not gone out here, maybe you would have only put in a loss, but then you would have been called, knocked out. You've re-logged in here, it's logical to re-log in, you've been stabbed, you've been knocked out. Go into the halls after stabbing. Well, then they will re-stab or even give such a stick or something like that. Well, in short, these are all the positions today. That is, in fact, it seems to be technically in fact, it seems to be technically correct, technically normal, but Perhaps I can look at it from the other side after some time, but for now it’s person, one participant, when he stupidly moves prices where he wants, simply draws these charts the way he wants. If I had gone into Pipin, I would have already been 40% in the plus. Here I had an entry point, well, 40% could have been taken. I thought it was a shitty situation. Well, how can you trade something like this when you just enter with the trend and for some low, I don’t know, it’s crazy. Well, that look technically, but it gives, it grows, but it’s impossible to trade something like that, like. Plus this coin, well, got screwed. There's some kind of scum coming from the bottom there. I don’t know, it’s really hard for me. Well, okay, what's the point of complaining? We'll try to continue trading somehow. So now you're going to go into longs in Pipin ? Well, where to go in longs? This is just a laugh. Well, it's just funny. Not much time passed there either. Bles. I also closed at a loss now. Minus $108. just closed it when I already saw minus 100 dollars there. That's it, here's minus 100 dollars there. That's it, here's another loss for your lab. I shorted 5,000 . The instrument must merge sooner or The instrument must merge sooner or later. Right there in the bottom. And it seems like something like that. Although I really don’t understand how you can just give a stop- loss order here and let everyone who wants to come in and short. I honestly don't understand this. But nevertheless, now, looking at the chart, looking at the tape, how it’s all happening, it’s as if they’re starting to pour this coin. That is, here I first took a long position, here I was closed, and here I have now taken a short position. I don’t know if this is the right decision, but update at least the loy, I will place a bet without a loss and that’s it. I poked it precisely because of the density when it appeared in I just noticed it at the moment and was like, "Damn, I need to point this out." And I clicked because I understand that most likely this deal will not result in a big loss. These are all excuses, of course. Yes, well of course, these are all excuses. Today the goal was achieved. Six minuses out of six deals. Clear, technical, as it should be. In short, minus 540 bucks. And with that, we will conclude trading today. Unfortunately, it didn't work out. This is the reality of our trading. I'm showing you these deals. You've all seen the deals. Well, I just closed it. Well, that's basically it. There's nothing to even explain here. Then, in the lab, this is a deal, partly, I would say, a tinkering one, you could call it that. She did n't have any good reasons for it, but nevertheless I thought that the instrument would start to merge and go. But again, the loss here is insignificant, so, roughly speaking, it doesn’t even need to be taken into account. All other deals, speaking, it doesn’t even need to be taken into account. All other deals, in my opinion, were correct. I did n't violate anything supernatural. I seemed to be acting according to the same plans that I had once had before. And so that you understand, if all this worked before, it doesn’t work now. No matter how hard we try to go about it, we can nevertheless draw some conclusions today. That yes, the levels are best decision. If you've found a position, well, you had a stop there, wait until your virtual stop is triggered, and then enter the position and set a new stop. Maybe it would have worked, I don't know. In short, we will look at the next few days. I don’t know if I’ll be decide on the area, whether to buy or not , whether to get involved in this topic or not, in short, it’s not clear yet. Nevertheless, these are the results we have today. This is the kind of cheerful start we have today. Mm, in short, something like that. Someone wrote in the comments: "Get auto trading, get swing trading." Guys, for example, I am the kind of person who is very used to scalping, and scalping was good for me because emotions are not undermined there, there the transactions were short, here the transactions are long. For me, this is already some kind of minus, a minus wipe, and it’s hard for me to cope with it. And the same, let's say, pig and But he won't suit me either. Your SmartMoney won't work for me either, . I am the kind of person who can’t do it any other way. The fact that I am now, let’s say, in such transactions and today the only transaction was on Labed. I screwed up a little. This is, in principle, already a success. In short, I'm finishing up targublya today. Watch the next video. Let's see where this all leads. spend 500 bucks every day, I will last for about 15 days. Well, that's already pretty strong. In short, we hope for the best, but we have to accept what we have. Good luck to everyone, profit to everyone, happiness, peace, kindness and bye to everyone.
