📅 **EXCEL Saturday Practice — Saturday, October 3, 2026** 🎤 Presenter: Samuel Strong — Visionary ⏰ 09:00 – 10:30 Eastern Time (EST) 🔗 Zoom: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/l_O258mqTh61bL02p8W3mw 🎯 Today's Focus: Position Sizing 📊 Instrument: ES 12-26 💻 Platform: NinjaTrader 📆 Playback / Download Date: Monday, September 21, 2026 ⬇️ Download Window: 9:15 AM – 12:00 PM ▶️ Replay Start: 9:29 AM ⚡ Replay Speed: 3X 📝 Description: Today we are focusing on position sizing to protect your account and build discipline. You will learn how to calculate your trade size based on your specific stop loss distance on the ES futures market. During our replay session, pay close attention to how your sizing changes when market volatility shifts. Our goal is to ensure you never risk too much on a single trade so you can stay in the game for the long term. 🎓 Brief Training: Know Your Size Before You Trade 1. Understanding the Topic • Position sizing is simply choosing the right number of ES contracts to trade based on your risk tolerance. • You measure the distance from your entry to your stop loss and adjust your contract count to keep risk steady. • When the market moves faster and requires a wider stop loss you must trade fewer contracts to stay safe. • A trader experiences this as a calm decision making process instead of an emotional reaction to potential losses. • Correct sizing means you do not panic when the trade goes against you because the dollar loss is controlled. 2. Why This Matters • Consistent sizing prevents a single losing trade from causing significant drawdown that damages your long term trading account. • Using variable sizes based on stop distance enforces strict discipline by preventing you from over leveraging in volatile conditions. • Proper risk management simplifies decision making by removing the fear of a large loss during your live trade entries. • Calculating your position size beforehand ensures your trade quality remains high regardless of how much the ES fluctuates. 3. What to Look For • Watch for wider stop distances during high volatility periods that require you to decrease your total contract count. • Look for the trader who maintains a consistent dollar amount at risk rather than trading the same contract count regardless of stops. • Notice if your emotional stress increases when a trade hits your stop which often signals an oversized position. • Observe if your NinjaTrader order flow shows smaller position sizes when the market creates large unpredictable bar ranges. 4. Step by Step Practice • Identify your total dollar risk limit per trade before opening the NinjaTrader platform. • Locate your intended entry price and your technical stop loss level on the ES chart. • Calculate the point difference between your entry and stop loss and convert that into total dollar risk per contract. • Divide your total dollar risk limit by the dollar risk per contract to determine your maximum contract size. • Round your resulting contract count down to the nearest whole number to ensure you stay under your risk threshold. • Enter your calculated contract size into the NinjaTrader order entry panel before clicking the buy or sell button. • Observe the trade outcome and record whether your calculated position size kept your loss within your predefined dollar limit. 5. Common Mistakes • Traders often trade a fixed number of contracts even when volatility increases which makes their risk inconsistent. • Many participants fail to account for the stop loss distance and instead guess their position size based on current mood. • Entering trades without pre calculating the position size often leads to panic exits when a trade moves against the plan. • Ignoring the tick value of the ES when calculating risk results in a position size that is far larger than intended. 6. Today's Practice Challenge • You must document the stop loss distance and contract size for every single trade in your log and ensure no trade risks more than your designated dollar limit. 📋 Agenda: 1. Welcome and session housekeeping 2. Review of the weekly mission 3. Overview of risk management basics 4. Understanding ES point values 5. Calculating risk per trade 6. Defining maximum loss per day 7. Demo of position sizing tools 8. Replay session for practice trades 9. Analyze group trade results 10. Discuss risk management mistakes 11. Open floor for questions 12. Announce the weekly assignment 13. Final thoughts and closing 📌 Weekly Assignment: Calculate the exact contract size for your personal account balance before every trade. Log your risk percentage for each trade in your journal. Limit yourself to one contract size until you hit three profitable days in a row. Review your past ten trades to see if you would have stayed profitable with smaller sizing.

EXCEL Saturday Practice — Sep 26

📅 **EXCEL Saturday Practice — Saturday, September 26, 2026** 🎤 Presenter: Samuel Strong — Visionary ⏰ 09:00 – 10:30 Eastern Time (EST) 🔗 Zoom: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/l_O258mqTh61bL02p8W3mw 🎯 Today's Focus: Consistency Rule Practice 📊 Instrument: ES 09-26 💻 Platform: NinjaTrader 📆 Playback / Download Date: Monday, August 10, 2026 ⬇️ Download Window: 9:15 AM – 12:00 PM ▶️ Replay Start: 9:29 AM ⚡ Replay Speed: 3X 📝 Description: Welcome to our Saturday session focused on getting you ready for professional trading accounts. Today we will practice following strict rules to keep your equity curve steady and protect your capital. You will learn how to avoid common mistakes that lead to account failure and how to keep your emotions in check. By the end of this practice on the ES futures contract, you will have a clear plan to maintain the consistency needed to pass your evaluation. 🎓 Brief Training: Mastering Consistency Rules for Prop Firm Evaluation Success 1. Understanding the Topic • Consistency rules mean you cannot make a single huge winning trade that accounts for most of your profit. • Prop firms want to see that you can make steady gains over many days of trading instead. • You experience this when you feel tempted to overtrade after a loss to make your money back quickly. • A consistent trader treats every single trade on the ES as just another small part of a larger plan. • If you rely on one lucky trade to pass, you will likely fail because you are taking too much risk. 2. Why This Matters • Strict consistency rules protect your account capital by preventing reckless bets that lead to massive drawdowns. • Following these rules builds the necessary discipline to avoid the common trap of chasing trades after a loss. • High quality entries are prioritized when you are forced to spread your profit goals across many separate sessions. • Your decision making improves significantly when you stop focusing on instant wealth and start focusing on repeatable processes. 3. What to Look For • Watch for a trade that returns more than thirty percent of your total profit target in a single session. • Identify the urge to add size to a losing trade just to force the account balance back into recovery. • Notice if your chart shows you taking wide entries because you are trying to capture a massive market swing. 4. Step by Step Practice • Open your NinjaTrader Market Replay tool and select a random date from the last three months for ES. • Define your daily profit target and set a hard stop for your maximum allowable loss for the session. • Execute your trades using only your established strategy while ignoring the urge to increase position size for faster gains. • Record the profit or loss for every single trade in a simple spreadsheet to track your daily progress. • Calculate the percentage of your total profit that came from your single best trade of the session. • Adjust your trade management if that single trade result exceeds your prop firm consistency rule limit. • End the replay session immediately once you reach your daily profit target to avoid unnecessary overtrading risks. 5. Common Mistakes • Traders often ignore the daily profit limits and keep trading until they accidentally break the consistency rule threshold. • Many people try to force a winning streak by overtrading during slow market conditions just to hit a number. • You might fail by taking a oversized position that makes a single move count for too much of your total. 6. Today's Practice Challenge • During your replay session, ensure no single trade contributes more than twenty five percent of your total daily profit goal. 📋 Agenda: 1. Welcome and session check in 2. Review current prop firm rules 3. Setting up NinjaTrader replay mode 4. Identify target daily loss limits 5. Practice strict entry signal identification 6. Executing trades with discipline 7. Managing risk during drawdown periods 8. Group discussion on emotional control 9. Reviewing sample trades for consistency 10. Solving common technical trading problems 11. Open question and answer session 12. Assigning the weekly practice tasks 13. Closing remarks and session wrap 📌 Weekly Assignment: Record at least five simulated trades in NinjaTrader using the specific prop firm rule set. Log your daily profit and loss for three consecutive days of market replay. Document every time you felt the urge to break a rule and how you handled it. Complete a post market review for every session to track your consistency score. Submit your trading journal to the group thread before next Saturday. ✅ Member Checklist: ☐ Register for Zoom. ☐ Download replay data. ☐ Verify playback date. ☐ Verify trading platform. ☐ Verify instrument. ☐ Verify contract month. ☐ Verify replay download window. ☐ Verify replay start time. ☐ Set replay speed to 3X. ☐ Open trading platform. ☐ Open trading journal. ☐ Join Zoom five minutes before the meeting begins.

EXCEL Saturday Practice — Sep 19

📅 **EXCEL Saturday Practice — Saturday, September 19, 2026** 🎤 Presenter: Samuel Strong — Visionary ⏰ 09:00 – 10:30 Eastern Time (EST) 🔗 Zoom: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/l_O258mqTh61bL02p8W3mw 🎯 Today's Focus: Build Your Own Trading Rulebook 📊 Instrument: MNQ 09-26 💻 Platform: NinjaTrader 📆 Playback / Download Date: Thursday, August 6, 2026 ⬇️ Download Window: 9:15 AM – 12:00 PM ▶️ Replay Start: 9:29 AM ⚡ Replay Speed: 3X 📝 Description: Today we are building your own personal trading rulebook for the MNQ futures market. You will learn how to create specific guidelines that keep your money safe when you trade on the NinjaTrader platform. During our replay session, focus on how your rules prevent you from taking unnecessary risks. By the end of this session, you will have a clear plan to help you stay disciplined and confident. 🎓 Brief Training: Building Your Personal Rulebook for MNQ Risk Management 1. Understanding the Topic • A trading rulebook is a simple written list of guidelines that tell you exactly when to enter or exit a trade. • When the MNQ market moves fast you can feel stressed and start making bad choices based on your current emotions. • Your rulebook acts like a map that keeps you focused so you do not gamble with your trading account money. • Having these rules ready means you can follow a clear plan instead of reacting to every single tick on your screen. 2. Why This Matters • Written rules remove the need to make difficult split-second decisions while the volatile MNQ price is moving against your position. • Strict adherence to your plan prevents large drawdowns by forcing you to accept small losses before they become major account problems. • Consistency is only possible when you follow the exact same entry and exit criteria every single time you trade the market. • A clear plan improves your entry quality by ensuring you only take setups that meet your personal requirements for high probability. 3. What to Look For • Watch for the urge to enter an MNQ trade because of fear of missing out rather than a confirmed signal. • Observe if your heart rate increases or if you feel the need to move your stop loss order further away. • Check if you are looking at your profit and loss column instead of following the technical setup on the chart. 4. Step by Step Practice • Open a blank document and write down the exact price action signal that must appear before you click the buy button. • Define the maximum number of MNQ contracts you are allowed to trade at one time based on your current account size. • List the exact dollar amount of loss that will trigger an automatic close of your trade and a walk away from the computer. • Write down the maximum number of losing trades you will allow yourself to take in a single session before stopping for the day. • Place this printed rulebook directly on your desk so you can physically touch it during every single trade you take today. • Read your list of rules aloud before you execute any market order to ensure your intent matches your written trading plan. 5. Common Mistakes • Traders often ignore their written stop loss rules because they hope the market will turn around and save their losing trade. • Adding extra contracts to a losing trade to try and make back money quickly is a fast way to blow an account. • Failure to document rules leads to changing your strategy every time you lose money rather than sticking to a proven method. 6. Today's Practice Challenge • During this replay session you must execute no more than three trades and you must verbally state your rule compliance before every entry. 📋 Agenda: 1. Welcome and member introductions 2. Housekeeping and platform announcements 3. Session goals and expectations 4. Introduction to risk management basics 5. Defining your personal risk tolerance 6. Drafting your entry and exit rules 7. Establishing daily loss limits 8. Building your trade sizing plan 9. Analyzing MNQ charts for practice 10. Group discussion on rule discipline 11. Reviewing sample trade setups 12. Member Q&A and troubleshooting 13. Summary of weekly assignments 14. Closing remarks and final motivation 📌 Weekly Assignment: Write down five rules for entering a trade in your notebook. Create a strict rule for the maximum loss you will accept per day. Post your finalized rulebook in the member discord channel. Review five losing trades from your past and explain which rule you broke. Test your new rules using the market replay feature for one hour each day. ✅ Member Checklist: ☐ Register for Zoom. ☐ Download replay data. ☐ Verify playback date. ☐ Verify trading platform. ☐ Verify instrument. ☐ Verify contract month. ☐ Verify replay download window. ☐ Verify replay start time. ☐ Set replay speed to 3X. ☐ Open trading platform. ☐ Open trading journal. ☐ Join Zoom five minutes before the meeting begins.

EXCEL Saturday Practice — Sep 12

📅 **EXCEL Saturday Practice — Saturday, September 12, 2026** 🎤 Presenter: Samuel Strong — Visionary ⏰ 09:00 – 10:30 Eastern Time (EST) 🔗 Zoom: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/l_O258mqTh61bL02p8W3mw 🎯 Today's Focus: Chasing 📊 Instrument: MNQ 09-26 💻 Platform: NinjaTrader 📆 Playback / Download Date: Wednesday, August 5, 2026 ⬇️ Download Window: 9:15 AM – 12:00 PM ▶️ Replay Start: 9:29 AM ⚡ Replay Speed: 3X 📝 Description: Today we are focusing on trade execution for the MNQ futures market with a special look at how to avoid chasing price. Many traders lose money because they rush into a trade when the market has already moved away from their entry point. In this session, you will learn how to wait for the right setup instead of reacting to fear of missing out. During our replay study, you will practice keeping your emotions calm and following your plan. By the end of this session, you will have the confidence to pass on bad trades and wait for the best ones. 🎓 Brief Training: Chasing: When the Trade Has Already Left Without You 1. Understanding the Topic • Chasing happens when you jump into a trade after the best move has already started. • You feel like you are missing out on profits so you click buy or sell too late. • The market is moving fast and you feel a need to get in before it gets away. • It looks like you are running after a bus that has already left the stop. 2. Why This Matters • Chasing often puts your entry at the worst possible price for the current move. • Entering late forces you to take on larger risk because your protective stop must be wider. • Frequent chasing destroys your consistency and chips away at your trading account balance over time. • It prevents you from following your original trade plan and leads to emotional decision making. 3. What to Look For • You feel a strong physical urge to click the buy or sell button when the price is already moving fast. • The candles on your chart have already made a large, long move away from the recent consolidation area. • You realize your stop loss order would need to be much larger than your typical allowed risk amount. • You notice yourself staring at the price jumping higher or lower and worrying that you will get nothing. 4. Step by Step Practice • Open your NinjaTrader replay chart to a time when MNQ had a sharp price move. • Identify the exact moment the trend momentum started to accelerate on your chosen timeframe. • Press the play button and wait for the price to move significantly past the early entry point. • Pause the market replay once you feel the urge to chase the move after it has already gone. • Evaluate if you can still define a clear, tight risk level for a trade in that specific spot. • Click skip or reset if the trade does not fit your exact rules instead of forcing the execution. 5. Common Mistakes • Entering a trade simply because the price is moving quickly without checking if the reward potential is still there. • Widening your stop loss order just to fit into a trade that you are already late to enter. • Forgetting that there is always another trade opportunity coming later in the day if you miss this specific one. 6. Today's Practice Challenge • Successfully identify three separate instances during your replay session where you feel the urge to chase and choose to refrain from clicking trade. 📋 Agenda: 1. Welcome and session check in 2. Announcements and platform setup 3. Overview of chasing price 4. Defining rules for entry 5. Identifying ideal trade setups 6. Market replay start 7. Watching price action closely 8. Executing trades without chasing 9. Group discussion on trade results 10. Reviewing successful trade examples 11. Reviewing mistakes in execution 12. Open Q&A for all members 13. Assigning the weekly tasks 14. Final closing thoughts 📌 Weekly Assignment: Record at least three examples of yourself resisting the urge to chase a trade. Keep a written list of every time you felt the fear of missing out during your trading week. Mark each trade in your journal as either a planned entry or a chase entry. Practice your entry technique in the simulator for thirty minutes every single day. Review your recorded trades and note how many ticks you would have saved by waiting for a better price. ✅ Member Checklist: ☐ Register for Zoom. ☐ Download replay data. ☐ Verify playback date. ☐ Verify trading platform. ☐ Verify instrument. ☐ Verify contract month. ☐ Verify replay download window. ☐ Verify replay start time. ☐ Set replay speed to 3X. ☐ Open trading platform. ☐ Open trading journal. ☐ Join Zoom five minutes before the meeting begins.

The market doesn’t know your name, your history, or your struggle — and it doesn’t owe you anything. So show up prepared.

When you know your rules, you also know when you are breaking them. Today we focus on trading with integrity and making decisions you can confidently review after the session.

"Every trading day is a fresh opportunity to be excellent."

- Increasing position size after a mistake can turn a manageable loss into an unnecessary problem. Today we focus on respecting risk and refusing to use bigger trades to repair emotional frustration.

Most times the "win" is not in the PnL it is in the discipline, the discipline to stop trading when profit or loss limit are hit, the discipline to not move your stop, the discipline to not jump into a trade that is not your setup. We have to redefine what a "win" really is. Let's get to it!!!

Here are the additional details comparing Funded Futures Family (FFF) to Lucid. Both have pros/cons but by the looks of it FFF might edge Lucid out all things considered if you are someone that can hold onto your accounts. Larger potential payouts w/ FFF. Faster but smaller payouts w/ Lucid since the max payout is capped. If your gross payouts exceed $2K and you have no issues passing an eval in less than a month then FFF appears to be better long term. Screenshots speak for themselves.

TARGET FILLED!!!

Approach the charts with intention and execute with discipline. You’re not chasing the market—you’re mastering it

It’s Monday!🙏🏾

Happy Father's Day!!❤️❤️

Happy Juneteenth Family!!❤️

Good evening, everyone. Hopefully everybody is having an amazing day. To everyone who spent time with me today during the Ambassadors Program, asked questions, took initiative, created QR codes, and stepped up to help build and strengthen the community, thank you. It truly means a lot. It’s a blessing to be surrounded by people who are willing to invest their time, energy, support, and belief into something bigger than themselves. That kind of unity, effort, and commitment does not go unnoticed. I pray God continues to bless each of you in your personal life, your families, your businesses, and every opportunity connected to your hands. Thank you for helping push the vision forward and for bringing positive energy into the community. Let’s keep “EXCELLING”❤️
