$19,000 in one day. That is crazy and it just shows the power of the stock market and the ability and the
opportunity it gives you if you have a strategy,
if you have the knowledge to make things happen,
but at the forefront here, I wanna get this out of the way. I am not trying to imply that
this member, Dan is his name, that Dan, oh yeah, he
just signed up last week and he's make $19,000. No, no, no. Dan has been around
since almost the start. I started this site in 2013 and he wasn't quite at the very beginning but he's been around for several years, so this is not a situation
where Dan signed up last week and he's using my magical system and he's using my hot stock picks.
Nothing like that. What you see here, and what's
going on behind the scenes is dedication, effort, hard work, and all the kind of
unpopular things to say that people don't really wanna
do, but it is worthwhile, and this is the end result
of where it can get you, and that's one of the issues
that I wanna talk about here is just to offer up some motivation. There's many other
little issues and topics that I wanna tackle too, that this will help open
your eyes to, hopefully, and also I'm gonna try to answer
some questions that I get.
So like I said, I'm
gonna use this as a way to talk about several different
topics around the market, and also answer some
common questions that I get from kind of the
claytrader.com perspective. But the first thing I wanna point out is that this all happened
on ticker symbol BYND, which is significant
because that's a stock that's up over $100. And for many traders they say, well I can't afford to trade that. My account's not big enough. It's too expensive. And that's the powerful
thing about how Dan operated within the stock market itself, and one of the branches
of the stock market is the options market. Now don't go freakin' out. I know options, some people make 'em sound way more complicated than what they are 'cause they wanna, I guess, sound smart, but I mean, Dan, he went
through the training and stuff like that and I promise, I can make that stuff simplified and just make all that
lingo a lot more easier.
But my point is, is that
when you learn options, when you consider the options market, you can get involved
with stocks such as BYND that are up over $100. And most people,
especially when you're new and just getting started, they see the numbers, and rightfully so, it's a logical thought to have,
is oh, I can't afford that. So that's one of the first topics is this was all being
done with options trading which allow you to get
involved with stocks that are much higher,
because you're not actually buying the stock itself. Now I'm not gonna go down the
rabbit hole of options here, but just understand that. Dan was getting involved on a stock that really anybody can get involved with. Now if you have a $10 account, that's not gonna be quite big
enough, but you do not need some sort of multiple
thousand dollar account to get involved with stocks over 100. And then the other thing I
wanna set up with some context is I'm gonna take you
to and show you a clip, part of, and this helps kinda answer one of the questions I get all the time, is hey Clay, I know you
offer this training program, coaching program, how does
that work, what's included? There's a bunch of classes, but just the one thing that is included is a weekly live coaching
session, as I like to say it.
So what I'm gonna show
you here on the screen is a snippet from a live
coaching session that I did the night before this
trade actually happened. So to offer context
again on Tuesday night, I did this webinar, which
you're about to see. Just like a minute clip from it. And then the next day is
when Dan used these areas that I talk about in the
video to do quite well, and you're gonna see
why he did quite well.
So after that video, then I'm
gonna go right to my desktop and I'm gonna walk you through it and then I'll meet you back here. But that's all perspective, right? If you're some sort of
big picture investor then, well Clay, look at that 50 period. It's so beautifully up trending. That's true. But for me, from my perspective,
the way I'm looking at it, this thing is in a down trend right now and there is a whole lotta
nervous people out there, and those nervous people,
I think they're gonna lose their edge at 115.
I don't know, I have a really bad feeling that this thing, well, the
other side of things would be if it does gap down below
and open up below 115, then you can always play the back test. So if it opens up right here, I could see it coming up here and then getting rejected back downwards, but I'd rather do kind of
the, just hammer that bid. If it looks like it's gonna
get down through there, hammer the bid. But we'll have to see
what happens with that. But I wanted to share that setup with you 'cause I saw it and I thought, wow, this has got some
opportunity on it tomorrow.
It's bullish on the daily. See I disagree. I don't think it's bullish
on the daily right now. On the daily, I believe this is a very bearish chart right now. Now it might only remain bearish for the next couple of days, but I think this is a very
bearish chart, as of right now. That's my opinion. All right, welcome to my desktop here. Now the number here, as you
just heard me talk about, going into the new day. So again, that video that you
saw was from a Tuesday night, and then the very next day
going into that Wednesday, 115 was the key level, marked
out there by that green line. And this is what myself
and many others use as a reference point to build
some trade plans around. Now I'm not saying that
Dan played it exactly as I'm gonna illustrate here. There's many ways you can approach it, but the point here is that everybody was watching that 115 mark, and everybody was well
aware that, you know what, that level was a significant area. That level carried importance with it and that there certainly could be some potentially profitable trade plans built around that area at there, at 115.
And as you're gonna see,
the market did gap down below that 115 mark. And then from there you'll
see how it all played out. So the first candle, which shows the first 15 minutes of the day right there, again if you're not
familiar with candle sticks, the price opened up right there. So after the price opened up, the price actually spent,
essentially the first 15 minutes going up and up and up, and look, right where it got rejected. Now technically speaking it hit $115.24. So did it get rejected at 115 exactly? No, but hopefully you're
willing to cut a little slack and say, you know, on a
stock that's this volatile, within 24 cents, that's pretty solid. But like he said, gap down, so that's where the whole idea of a back test came into play. Went up there, hit the 115 mark, and you can see right there, once again, the high of that candle got
right up there just shy of 115. So basically two times got
right up around that area, and then from that point,
and I'll speed things up, you can see that the
price ultimately dropped quite significantly on the day.
And in fact, went down as
low as that area right there at basically let's just call it 106. So from 115 down to 106,
and that's a $9 move. Not too bad. $9 in one day. And here's the part where Dan could have actually made
more than the $19,000 because he decided to hold
a portion of his position, so he decided to hold some of his options, and you can see the next day, which is represented by this, there was actually a gap up. So he was looking for it to
potentially go down even more, it did not, so like I said, now this is all hindsight and I'm not saying, I'd
say Dan played it right. I mean at that point,
when you're up that much, why not just hang on to something and just see how it works out. In this case, it just
didn't work out for him. The price ultimately gapped
up, went against him, so that's what makes
this all the more crazy is that $19,000 could
have been even bigger had this gapped down, or just at least not gapped so much against him. But it is what it is.
He still walked away with $19,000. But that's how it worked out. You saw everything being talked about. Obviously I was very bearish
going into the next day, and there's a lot of
downward pressure, and yeah. The downwards pressure, without doubt, showed up quite a bit, but that is just one little example there of the power of knowledge and investing in yourself to learn. So we'll go back to me now at the desk. $115. That was the magical number
and the power of charts. The power of technical analysis,
which is the other topic that I wanna just really drive home. They're a tool that needs to be learned. Are they perfect? No, nothing is perfect. Nothing can predict the future other than inside information. But I don't want you to go to jail, so I'm not gonna say go
get inside information. But yeah, technical charts. Amazing how that played out. 115, 115, watch for the back test, and that is exactly what
happened, as you see there, and then the price went all
the way down to where it was.
And for me, to offer up context, I made $1,000 in 12 minutes. In fact, we'll put up a
screen shot on the screen from social media that I posted. But yeah, so for me it was a great day. Now of course Dan makes me
look silly with $19,000. But yeah, I'm happy. $1,000, 12 minutes. And there was a lot of
other members that were trading that one, too. But I mean, yeah, it was a beautiful setup and it was all documented for those people that attended the coaching session.
So if you are actually a member of a coaching program already and you're not on the
Tuesday night webinars, come on, let's go, get there. Get there, I'm telling you,
there's some good stuff in there and it'll really help you out. So that is how it all works. That's how Dan did it. He got the knowledge,
he worked really hard, he had a strategy, and what
really still motivates me as somebody that is
quote unquote, the coach or the teacher, whatever
you wanna call me, is that like I say way back
at the beginning of the video, Dan has been around not quite since 2013 as part of the program, but very close from then, and he makes, I mean he does very, very well. If you follow social media,
you've seen other big days. But here is the thing that
really motivates me about Dan and it serves as a great lesson and hopefully motivation and inspiration.
Is not the amounts of money that he makes, but he's still showing up to these Tuesday night coaching sessions. He's one of these guys that
he's pulling in big numbers but he's still there,
learning, sharpening, you know, iron sharpens iron. He's staying on his A game. He's trying to get his
A game that much better. And to me, that is really
the, in my opinion at least, the moral of the story here is you have somebody that's doing so well, yet they're still investing their time into learning and honing their skills, and just kind of keeping themselves aware.
It's like an athlete, right? You gotta keep yourself conditioned. You gotta keep running. You gotta just make sure that your body stays in tune and your mind stays in tune, and that's what Dan's doing. So just remember that, is you
can never really get too good to just keep your ax sharpened
and just keep on learning, or at least maintaining all
the knowledge that you have. And I think that's, like I
said, what Dan really serves up as the best example here. But yeah, that's how Dan made the $19,000. BYND. He used options. He used technical charts. He invested into himself,
he invested in the program.
He's still showing up
like we just talked about. So that's how you do it. And anybody can do it, but again, it doesn't happen overnight. It doesn't happen within a week. It doesn't happen within months. It's gonna take time and
effort, but it is possible. So hopefully I can offer
you up some motivation. If you enjoyed this video, I do have a question for you though. If you enjoy kind of these videos where I talk about more so members, 'cause I don't know, I don't mind showing, talking about me, but at some points maybe you find it interesting to see how other members are doing, so if you found that motivational or if you like these kind of videos where I'm talking about other
members' real-life results, leave me down a comment in
the comment section below and let me know your thoughts on that.
I'm always curious if these videos, should I make more of them or
is this just kind of something that's no but, I don't know, in my mind, this was a very important one because of that lesson about
somebody doing very well, yet still investing in themselves and investing in their time
to keep that ax sharpened. So like I said, let me know
down in the comment section. And then also just hit that like button. If you check out the channel,

Whatever you decide, I
wish you all the best. Point here, remember, you
can never get too good. You can never have too much success to wanna keep on learning and keeping your ax nice and sharpened. First off, thanks so much for
watching the entire video. Real quick, before you go, I wanna invite you to a
live webinar, web class, training, workshop, online event, whatever you wanna call it, but it will be me, live, revealing to you what I've discovered that has allowed me to transform myself from being an employee to being my own boss, including how I had only one losing day out
of 73 days in total. I'm gonna cover three
keys that have helped me unlock profitable consistency
within the markets. The first key is super weird, but in a productive type of way. The second key is super awesome
because it quite literally is wired into our DNA as humans, making it very easy to use, but in a cruel way, this becomes
a pitfall for many traders.
I'll explain it all though, including how to avoid the
pitfall that it creates for some. And yeah, the third key, when you hear it, sounds way too good to be true, but it's not, and I'll
show you how it all works. Then at the end I open it up for a question and answer session that is, again, totally live. Even if you can't make the live session, please still sign up,
as it will be recorded, and you can go back and watch the replay that I will send you. Click the image on the screen or click the link down
in the description box so you can get the date and
time and claim your spot, which I should note, is limited, due to the fact that this
truly is a live event. If you have any questions, let me know. If not, I'll be seeing you soon.
