Hey, it's Clay.

And I'm starting at the end.

I've done this before,

but I like to try and do this every now and then,

if there's learning lessons that play out

with the live trading.

And in this one,

there definitely was some learning lessons that did unfold.

And a couple things to just kinda keep focus on, is,

first off, as you I'm sure can tell by the title,

I did make some mistakes.

And mistakes happen.

You can never quite be perfect.

But you just have to accept the fact and keep on trading.

Now, don't go on start breaking a bunch of rules.

And start shooting from the hip, I'm not saying that.

But just stick with the system, stick with the strategy,

and, you know, let the market play out.

And the second part, I made a comment.

And you'll see that I missed out on a trade

because I was making an alert

to the private community that I offer.

And I made the comment, kinda joking around.

Hey, you know what, I missed the trade here.

But hopefully, other members made money from it.

But you know what?

There will be times, because there always is another time,

I mean the community's been around since 2013,

but there's gonna be a time where I'll benefit

from somebody else's alert.

So, yeah, it's a bummer.

But it is what it is.

You know, and within the big picture,

I will benefit from somebody else's alert.

And did I know it was gonna necessarily happen

a couple hours later?

No, I can't say I knew that.

But a couple hours, though, a fellow member,

and as I talk about in the video,

I had to go and do some videos and such.

So, when I did that, I lost track of AGTC completely.

Shame on me.

But, like I said, because of the way the community works,

because I'm surrounded with other quality traders

and other educated traders that understand what to look for,

how to trade, and all that good stuff,

Darth here brought AGTC back to my attention.

And then you can see down here,

what AGTC ended up trading at.

And made, you know, over 500 dollars on it.

So, yeah, I missed out on that alert earlier,

like you'll see.

But on the same exact day,

just because that's how the community works.

You surround yourself with other quality traders,

other people that know what they're doing.

And, you know, right here,

I made more than all my other trades combined.

And finishing the day up by 922 dollars.

So, I'm not, you know, complaining about that.

So, those are the two things that, yeah,

just because you make some mistakes, that's okay.

You're human, you're normal, you're not gonna be perfect.

But just stick with the system.

Keep on going.

And sure I'd love to have you join the community

that I offer.

But if you've been kind of thinking about,

and on the fence,

"I don't know, do I really wanna join that community?"

Then I'd encourage you, yeah, join the community.

Again, hopefully its mine.

But if not, that's cool, too.

I want you to do what you feel most comfortable with.

But these are the benefits of a community.

Ideally, my community.

But if you feel most comfortable with somebody else's,

then definitely go and join their community.

'Cause there are certainly benefits.

As you know, I benefited from it here today.

So, with all that being said,

now you'll see how these opening trades all played out.

But yeah, there's some great learning lessons

coming your way.

So, sit tight and hopefully you do learn something.

Hey, it's Clay at claytrader.com.

This'll be a live trade video where I try to capture

some of my trades as they play out live.

Market opens up here in about ten minutes.

Pretty sure I'm gonna watch Tesla out of the opening gates.

Looking for a break of potentially 498.

And if that can occur,

I'm not gonna say it's gonna for sure gonna go up to 500,

but I like the chances that at least test 500.

So, if it can break at 498 and then get,

you know, head up to 4, or excuse me, 500,

that is a potential two dollar move.

So, there's definitely some profitable opportunity

within that two dollar range.

And then, of course, if it can break above 500,

you know, the potential is theoretically unlimited.

But, we'll see what happens with it.

Like I said, market opens up here in about ten minutes.

All right, the markets are now open.

So, let's see what T--

oh.

Wants to do this first opening minute.

Getting a pullback here.

Big pullback.

As expected, Tesla all over the place.

You can see the high right there, 497, 98.

I was looking for a break of 498,

and that's why I didn't wanna get it at that point.

But now that it's working its way back upwards,

that 498 mark becoming much, much more attractive.

But what I wanna see is if the price can kinda recover

from that pullback, which (gasps) which it did.

And, wow, that happened fast.

There was a 498 break.

And it absolutely left me in its dust.

Wow.

Well, pulling back below it but still there was a good,

almost dollar move.

But needless to say, Tesla is all over the place.

So, I'll keep an eye on it.

Wow, that didn't last very long either.

Still, from a scalpable opportunity,

which is what I'm looking to do,

that was a great move, right there.

But now maybe potentially interested to play

some sort of pullback here.

Like I said, not wanting to commit either way right now,

as Tesla trying to make up its mind

what direction it actually wants to go.

All right, well, I missed the break here of the lows.

But I'm gonna put an order out at 45.85,

to try to play the back test here.

'Cause you don't wanna chase it down, but...

It came back up, but didn't give me anything.

All right, well...

Actually, that move bounced back up,

it hit 45.85 but never filled me.

Yeah, here was...

So, if you're also wondering,

"Hey, how does the chatroom work?"

Here's the alert that, as I was typing up,

by the time I got back over...

So, that was obviously before it was at those lows

and before the breakdown here occurred.

But, you know, just question,

hey, is there a test of lows coming?

And, I was getting ready to hop in,

but by the time I got over here,

not only did the test of the lows occur,

as you've seen, it went way lower than that.

So, oh, well.

Well, hopefully, a member of the community

made some money on it

from the alert,

'cause I didn't, but that's okay.

There'll be more opportunities.

We're only three minutes into the day.

Update here on KSS, it just gets more and more painful.

So, I'm glad I made the alert

so some other people had the opportunity

to make some money on it.

Because this thing just keeps on

bleeding, bleeding, bleeding.

And you saw the alert, so, yeah.

That's how the chatroom works.

I make alerts and sometimes I don't make money.

That's all right.

That was my choice to type it up.

So, I feel, I'll take the moral victory here, right?

The moral victory, other people made money.

But I'll also be honest,

I'm a little bitter that I chose the moral victory

over actually making some money on it.

But, that's all right.

Somebody else will make an alert to me,

at some point in the future.

And they may miss out on a trade.

But I know I'll be able to benefit from it.

So, it's like the circle of life.

All right, LK going again.

So, let's pull up LKC.

All right.

41.

55.

Oh, no share?

Well, yesterday I was able to short shares on this.

Now, you look up here, and not able to short.

So, nevermind on the short sided trade for LK.

I should've noted, if I was able to short, this here,

this is what it looks like if you're able to short.

I'll bring up Tesla.

See how it's, the green E is there.

So, that means I would've been able to short.

But you look back here with LK,

and you see the E is not green.

So, unfortunately, can't short, all of a sudden.

Okay, AGTC just broke above 7,

looking to get short here at 7.25.

Went up as high as 7.15.

So, kinda close.

But we'll see if it can move its way up to, again, 7.25.

For my entry point, I'll keep an eye on it.

All right, Tesla is approaching this 488 point.

Which, I think, it wants to at least back test,

if not break.

So, 488 very important level.

Like I said, I think it'll at least wanna test it.

Ideally, it breaks down through it.

So, it's approaching it, there's the break.

And all out there for 209.

Like I said, didn't have full confidence

that it would get continuation.

But, at least test it.

And you can see right there, it got out at 488.

Well, a very costly screw up.

I don't like shorting stuff like this.

I have no problem saying that.

I'd much rather make is appear as though

I'm some sort of flawless trader, but whatever, I'm not.

And this was, I got way, way too trigger happy.

And I got too stubborn in my trade plan.

I mean, you heard me saying it,

"Well, it's gonna at least retest 488,

"it's gonna at least retest 488."

And it did, and I got out.

So, I mean, I followed my trade plan.

But, you know, I knew better than that.

And I'll show proof of why I knew better than that,

here in just a second.

But, yeah, I messed that up pretty big.

I got too stubborn in my idea, and then, you know,

I got out at 488.

And that thing went another four dollars in my favor.

Now, not that I would've played it perfectly,

but even I'd gotten, I don't know,

let's call it two dollars out of it, like I said,

it went four dollars in my favor.

So, if even if I'd still screwed up half more or it,

I mean, that'd been what?

2,000 dollars?

No, excuse me, 1,000 dollars, instead of 208.

So, don't get me wrong, I'm not a greedy savage.

I'm very happy with 200 dollars in the one minute I made it.

But wow.

So, what do I mean by, you know, kind of,

'cause we'll turn this, well, we'll come back to that.

'Cause right now,
