A good trade is one where the probabilities are stacked in your favor. And even though the immediate outcome might not be favorable, it's a trade you would be willing and ready to take again in a heartbeat.
70% expectancy rate with proper SL placement.

{quote} You sure? Range charts create a bar when price moves a certain number. for example 1 point setting on ES would mean that a bar would create every time price moves up or down 1 point. it clears up the ticks if it is an instrument with a lot of ticks per session. Damian mentioned that one of his buddies trades the ES using range bars due to the high volume
Yes, am sure. I’ve used range bars in order flow charts. So long as the ticks are within the range bar setting you’ll only see one bar for as long as it takes to trade out of the range bar setting. I’ve never set a 1 range but I imagine it would create a new bar every tick that trades beyond the 1 range bar. I can’t remember if the range bar is one more tick longer than the setting. So a range of five may show a length of 6 ticks. It’s been a while. I’ve got a friend that trades the range bars with order flow and 5 tick stops. He does very well.

Sorry I’ve been saying points instead of ticks when I talk about s&p 500. Although I’m aware that it’s measured in .25 I just say 4 points instead of 4 ticks when it shows price moves from say 2875 to 2876

it just makes it less confusing to others to not get ticks in price confused with transaction ticks.

Good day, Damian.

Thank you for another session review. Unfortunately the mic volume is very very low.

I've gone through some older videos of yours and found some live streams in 1080p. Changing the resolution back to 1080p would increase the quality of your future videos immensly because small numbers and candles will be easier to see for us.
It looks like you are using different software for your live stream and for the recorded videos so it will be hard to match sound levels and overall quality.
Therefore I'd recommend using OBS which can record videos with the same settings as your stream and would solve this issue if set up correctly.

To change the resolution you have to go to video settings and change the output resolution to 1920x1080.
Since you are not streaming fast paced gameplay or video 30 fps should be enough.

I recommend following output settings:

This will offer live streams in high quality and recordings with the exact same quality without having to set up another program. The only thing left now would be adjusting the mic volume with the slider at the bottom right and/or adding a Gain filter as necessary.
What's important is that while you are talking the lines for your mic in your mixer don't go into the red region and for the most part stay in the yellow region.

All the best to you and your family, and thank you for all the time and effort you're putting into this!

The volume for me is always fine and I never had any problems with Damian's live streams or any other videos of his.. so instead of everyone making such a big fuss about it maybe just turn up the volume a bit. It won't kill you I promise.

I always have the volume to max, and still have problem with hearing it, as many others.
No big deal, as I put a pair of head phone on.

One can understand, if one likes to give a solution to the technical sound issues.

I'm offering a solution to a technical problem a lot of people seem to have issues with. If turning up the volume a bit does the job for you that's great. Apparently it doesn't for a lot of other people.

I know, it's great that you are trying to help, i'm just bothered that Damian is doing SOOO MUCH to help everyone and people are just lazy to pick up a pair of headphones... my PC isn't anything fancy..my headphones are worth 10$ and I don't have problems with the sound so I'm pretty sure the problem is on your end not Damian's.

While waiting for the market to open.. My wife wanted to share this joke with me.

Wife: Do you think I look fat?

Husband: No, I think you look just right. I like it.

Wife: In that case, carry me to the refrigerator. I'm hungry.

Husband: Uhhh.. On second thought, let me just bring the refrigerator over for you.
Luck has no place in trading. Leave that for the poker table.

I also notice the low volume during the streams, videos are fine. It's not that big of a problem, but if a lot of people experience it, why not suggest Damian how to get it louder. The same applies regarding the streaming quality. Damian could easily stream in 1080p so one could see numbers etc without pixelation. Don't get me wrong, that's no complaint at all and definitely not out of lazyness. Damian is already doing more than enough for us and I think every person taking this thread seriously knows that. Since he's a grown man, he will let us know if those changes are applicable for him or not.

In short, it's a few settings; one-time-setup for streaming and recording taking a few minutes. Volume would be fixed and quality improved following Kayjay2011's suggestions. No headset or volume adjustment on the viewer's side while having better quality.

Great trading day to everyone today! Special thanks to Damian for doing all this!
