hi my name is tamas Rollo and welcome to
[82]
my youtube channel where we talk all
[84]
things money finance and trading I've
[86]
been trading for a couple of hours and
[88]
it is 9:40 a.m. currently and I've had
[93]
two trades one was I stopped out with -
[96]
32 points in the second entry ended up
[99]
being plus 154 points so in total I'm in
[103]
plus six hundred and twenty euros so far
[106]
this was the trade number one false
[109]
break of this trunky market level and
[111]
then I traded a fall to break in the
[113]
other direction since we had a really
[115]
strong powerful trend going up named
[117]
longer time frame so I'm not gonna be
[120]
going in depth on what I'm doing
[121]
precisely I'm just saying in general key
[124]
market level this key market level that
[125]
this rule that rule but there are quite
[128]
of many things that you have to keep on
[131]
what in mind when you're trading now
[133]
I've been trading for the past seven
[135]
years so there are a lot of things that
[137]
I'm using all the things that I'm
[139]
looking at I'm also keeping an eye on
[142]
the news since the market volatility is
[144]
crazy
[144]
so I need to keep an eye on that as well
[147]
because the a lot of trading right now
[148]
is done on the news so fundamentals not
[151]
just the technical analysis but because
[154]
of huge volatility it is very very easy
[157]
in general these very easy to make a lot
[159]
of money very fast 1026 a.m. and another
[163]
update on trading today some really nice
[166]
news came out that European Central Bank
[169]
will be supporting the market
[171]
limitlessly and of course that gave some
[174]
positivity to the price movement and I
[178]
did find a really nice key market level
[180]
that I traded quite a few times
[184]
here is the key market level right here
[185]
and I've traded it once falls break
[188]
going down and that's was my - I made
[191]
money on this one then I made money on
[193]
this one then some money on this one and
[196]
finally a nice amount of money on this
[198]
move so today I had about let me see
[201]
five trades in total and only one was in
[205]
- now five trades the losing trade was -
[210]
thirty-two points which is 160 euros or
[213]
about 180 or a bit more dollars the next
[216]
one was plus 156 points so about 800
[219]
euros for $900 then the next one was
[222]
plus 46 points around 250 euros and 280
[226]
or so dollars then I really small one
[229]
plus 21 points which was a hundred euros
[231]
or 120 or 110 I'm sorry dollars and the
[236]
last one was plus 101 points which is
[239]
around 500 euros or around 550 dollars
[243]
so today in total in just two hours of
[247]
trading I am up 1450 Europe
[255]
[Music]
[265]
two hours and that's what is possible in
[268]
day trading however you need to be
[270]
properly educated and you need to have a
[272]
lot of experience and before you start
[274]
money trading you need to practice quite
[276]
a lot this is day trading and this is
[278]
what is possible all right this is not
[280]
the end of hopefully of this trading day
[283]
I will probably take a nap celebrate the
[286]
success and I'll return to the trading
[289]
desk in a couple of hours and hopefully
[290]
maybe I'll make even more today so the
[293]
next update it's been quite a few hours
[295]
and unfortunately I did not find a nice
[298]
enough entry now the market has gone
[301]
into a consolidation and perhaps a big
[304]
position is being gathered so we will
[307]
shoot either up or down at some point
[309]
but I don't really like the shape that
[312]
I'm looking at and if we look at the
[315]
5-minute chart then that's the shape
[318]
beyond the level right there and it
[320]
starts to look like a little bit of
[322]
faith it starts to look like a squeezing
[326]
model however I am out of breath I was
[329]
doing some Fitness here with the
[331]
dumbbells so that I can stay in shape
[332]
and trade and that's actually the beauty
[334]
of trading you're staying at home
[335]
trading and working out at the same time
[337]
now and because of that I'm still at
[341]
fourteen hundred and fifty euros in
[343]
profit today and I decided you know it's
[346]
a super beautiful weather outside so I
[350]
think it's about time we've taken a
[353]
break from trading
[356]
[Music]
[382]
so a small training tip for you guys
[384]
when you're trading professionally
[386]
meaning you're trading full-time now
[388]
there is a big difference between
[390]
professional trading and retail trading
[392]
and I am a retail trader so I'm
[394]
considered to be an unprofessional
[395]
trader which is also a day trader now I
[399]
do personally think that there can be a
[401]
professional day trader it's the one who
[404]
is making consistent profits and I would
[406]
perhaps consider myself being a
[408]
professional day trader now the table I
[411]
want to give you is how to avoid over
[413]
trading it's a very common problem and
[416]
to be honest even in my learning program
[419]
that I've designed to teach other people
[421]
how to trade I make a huge emphasis I
[423]
put a huge emphasis on trading
[426]
psychology because technical analysis
[429]
and fundamentals now there aren't that
[431]
really difficult the difficult part in
[433]
my personal opinion in my personal
[435]
experience in my seven years of trading
[438]
is the psychology and you must keep
[440]
yourself in check if you're getting
[442]
agitated
[443]
oh yeah those girls are funny well
[445]
that's the side effect of the
[446]
coronavirus so yeah these are the small
[449]
size so I can actually swim with them
[452]
so yeah when you are trading full-time
[456]
you must keep your emotions in check and
[458]
that is extremely important because if
[460]
you are getting upset very very quickly
[463]
trust me sooner or later it will lead to
[466]
many losses and if you feel all been
[468]
upset and agitated you should leave and
[470]
do something else maybe go to the city
[472]
center and enjoy a nice cup of coffee or
[475]
if you look at the market and you don't
[477]
really see anything of value like me
[479]
today then you should perhaps once again
[482]
take a break go enjoy the nice weather
[484]
the beautiful weather here in Northern
[487]
Europe and Latvia and that's me and my
[489]
girlfriend we are going to the city
[491]
center right now we will not be in any
[493]
crowds or cafes we'll just walk around
[495]
and enjoy the weather and beautiful
[497]
paradise of Northern Europe and that's
[501]
that's the key don't over trade when
[503]
you're sitting there and thinking that
[505]
you must be trading there is no such
[508]
concept as must be trading in trading
[511]
you must only choose and pick out the
[514]
best opportunities that the market is
[515]
offering and that's the biggest problem
[518]
one of the biggest problems that so many
[520]
beginner traders are making they're used
[522]
to nine-to-five jobs for example and
[524]
they're used to working for I don't know
[527]
five hours or 10 hours or whatever per
[529]
day and getting paid for each single
[530]
hour in trading it doesn't work this way
[533]
so when you don't see anything of value
[534]
just take a break
[536]
walk around and enjoy the sunshine and
[538]
that's the beauty of trading and that's
[540]
what you should be doing in your own
[542]
trading and that's what I'm doing
[543]
right now
[545]
[Music]
[574]
there is absolutely no one on the
[577]
streets
[578]
quite honestly saw that I don't like
[579]
people but I do enjoy this freedom just
[582]
like with trading
[583]
[Music]
[594]
so many people actually asked me Thomas
[596]
why do you live in Northern Europe it's
[598]
quite a poor place and there right but
[601]
at the same time it's a really beautiful
[603]
place and I was born here and I actually
[605]
love this place look at it it's
[607]
absolutely gorgeous so after walking
[609]
around for a little bit and enjoying the
[611]
sunshine and a beautiful day we returned
[613]
home and I did trade a little bit right
[618]
now it's half past ten o'clock in the
[622]
evening and the market is pretty much
[624]
dead already and I think I'm gonna call
[625]
it a day
[626]
and since our walk outside in the city
[630]
I had three last trades now they were
[634]
nothing special
[637]
number one was - 15 points so about - 75
[642]
euro or around 90 dollars or so a bit
[645]
less 85 dollars then a zero trade so I
[649]
opened it and I didn't really like how
[651]
the price behaved so I had some plus
[655]
about 200 euros and then the price
[657]
quickly returned so I closed it with a
[660]
zero so I didn't really believe it and
[663]
then the last one was a squeezing model
[666]
and the news were quite good - the news
[669]
were quite positive and therefore I
[672]
believed in the squeezing model beyond
[674]
the key market level which in turn would
[677]
result in the break of them of that
[680]
level and a really nice climb and I've
[683]
taken just 40 points which is still ok
[686]
it's 200 euros around 220 dollars and
[689]
that's pretty much it so in total today
[693]
I've had nine trades five of which were
[698]
a plus one was a complete zero an
[700]
absolute zero and three of which were a
[704]
minus so not a bad result a really
[706]
really really nice trading day today in
[709]
total in points I lost 53 points and I
[713]
gained three hundred and sixty four
[714]
points so think about that for a moment
[717]
one day of trading with just nine trades
[721]
and I took a really nice time off in the
[723]
city driving my favorite lovely car and
[725]
enjoying the sunshine and then coming
[727]
back and making even more money so in
[731]
total today fifteen hundred and eighty
[732]
euros which is around eighteen hundred
[735]
dollars or so maybe a bit less so this
[737]
video is coming to an end I'm quite
[739]
tired and it's about time I call it a
[740]
day and go to bed like that subscribe
