Previously on Crypto Combat. >> All right, everybody. Welcome back to Crypto Combat. >> Unlimited leverage. Real pressure. >> Love always wins, guys. Except for in this show. It's all about recctor rich. All right. I'm $800 in the money right now. >> Let's go back to Barrett Soloway. I love it. >> You're going to go and burn the account again. Bullish, bullish, bullish. Let me just check the win. >> Do you know what UST stands for? US dollar today. >> I love it. >> I went on a streak where I didn't lose a trade for like an entire month. I wore the same pants every single day. I did not wash them. I did not change them. >> Thank you again to our sponsor weeks for today and for sponsoring this show as a whole. >> Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Listen, dude. What the heck? What is that? >> Are you telling me I should short this right now? cuz I will >> pull that thing all the way. Slide that over. He liquidated. >> Oh no. [laughter] >> That I call BS. I think the exchange did that on purpose. >> I predict that Drew will win. >> Let's go. Let's go. That's the wrong way, brother. >> Audience, those are clean pants. Don't worry. >> Should have worn the other pants slot. >> How about that? >> All my supporters in the chat, guys. So, we're going to do whatever we can to repeat this next week and we can tackle that challenge all together. Awesome stuff. Welcome to Crypto Combat, Wrecked or Rich, where pro traders throw real money into real time crypto chaos for cash, [music] glory, and eternal bragging rights. Real money, real trades, and real consequences. You're about to learn some serious trading lessons between the trash talk. Let's find out who has the best trading skills or who is getting wrecked. >> Welcome back everybody to Crypto Combat Wrecked or Rich. And as as Crypto A to Z said in the chat, it is party time. And we also already have people chanting for Drew as the Drew Crew. How are you doing, Nick? >> The Drew Crew. I haven't heard that one before. I thought that was a clothing brand. Uh folks, it is Friday, 1:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. So that's right. It is time for wrecked or rich where these traders are going to try to not get liquidated and strike it big by sometimes going up to 200x leverage. >> Yes, it is. And the chat is already also asking for the junk cam to come back. So, uh sorry folks, we have fixed those technical difficulties. So, uh sorry to disappoint you today, but >> yeah. And uh today's going to be a great episode. We have a new traitor entering the arena and thankfully it's not a real arena because he's he's pretty swole. I I wouldn't want to go against him in the Roman coliseum. My gosh, that is right. We got Jake Sweeney coming in with us as a new contender. Really excited to see how he does in the arena. >> Yeah, and also we're going to have Lton and Drew. And if you have any questions about Lton's pants, make sure you put it in the chat, everybody. >> That was right. We did hear some wonderful stories about his pants last week. So, uh, that just tells you guys that Crypto Combat, you never know what you're getting into, but it is entertaining and that's what we're here. >> And just to recap a little bit, last week's winner was Drew. I guess the Drew crew, they're ready for a twopiece. >> Drew crew. >> Yes, Drew. They're already rooting for Drew. And it seemed like in the in the poll as well that was already put out, Drew is already in the lead. >> And folks, we're going to have some trivia. We're going to look at some awesome trades. And again, you know, wrecked or rich. Uh let us know what you think is going to happen down in the comments section. But let's go ahead and kick it off to our first trader. Speaking of Drew, the Drew crew is probably going to get mad at us if we don't lead with him. Drew, how are you doing today? >> Doing great. I'm going to channel all that love and energy into what we just had, the World Cup, and we're getting that crew row from the Nordic nation. Come on, guys. We're going to go ahead and crew our way to that victory circle today in the arena. Let's go. Let's get it on. >> Drew, are you wearing J Crew? I'm just curious. >> Uh, it's a step up. It's a step up from J Crew. That would be ABCDF hij. That's K crew, my man. K crew. [laughter] [clears throat] >> All right. Also, we're going to have uh we'll end with Jake here, but we also have Lton. Lton, he only had two hours of sleep, but some are going to say that's going to be an advantage actually because now he's going to be even more easily uh accessible into his DJ mode. Yeah, listen guys, last week was a fluke. Listen, I don't lose two in a row. I might lose one in a row. I'm not losing two in a row, dude. This thing the I swear to God I did nothing. The junk cam. >> I I don't know. I know people were asking for it. I I literally >> I lied. >> Anyways, >> I'm here to win today. >> I don't know what's going on. >> Now, Lton, do you think the the fans made that happen just by willing it to existence? I I I see a lot of comments asking for the junk cam, so I had to give the people what they wanted, I guess. >> All right. Well, uh, let's just say that was an interesting development. And we haven't even got started yet, folks. So, I can already tell this this episode is going to be off the rails. But, let's go to our third trader coming in and he's going to try to be rookie of the year, get a victory out the gate, Jake Sweeney. Jake, Jake the Snake, how are you doing today? >> Good afternoon, everyone. I am thrilled to be here. First time I've watched a few of these shows and you know, I was just waiting for the moment to be on here to get a trade along with L and Andrew. I'm stoked. It's going to be killer. But guys, I am not an adviser. This is not financial advice. This is a fight card. So, let's go bring them up and woo. Let's go. Are you saying don't follow you into 200x leverage trades, Jake? >> We shall see. We shall see. >> Now, if they go successfully, then we'll say, "Well, of course we told you to do that, you know." >> Yeah, of course. And like what Jake said, this is we do have a warning that we put out there if you didn't [music] see it. Don't follow what we're doing because this is just for fun and entertainment. This is all just like emotional trading which is you know not really the way that we teach here at verify but this is for fun. So >> well revenge trading is the best trading. That's where you lose a position maybe sometimes get liquidated and then you just double down and just keep going in for the same position. I also call it catching a falling knife. It just it'll keep cutting you the whole way down. >> Oh wow. But let's folks, uh, we do have some rules and we're going to go over those [music] briefly here and just kind of let you know, uh, the parameters of what we're looking at today. [music] >> Let's talk rules and scoring. Each trader starts with $10,000, which resets every episode. 45 minutes on the game clock. All trades must be closed when the timer hits zero. No limits on position size or leverage. The trader with the highest profit plus bonuses wins. Here are the extra bonuses our traders will be competing for. [music] Dun mode, roastmaster, the yolo, hail mary, braveheart, and they can also be assessed penalties, folks. And if you like watching the traders, well, now is your chance to do the same. We're going to have a link down below for weeks. Uh they're nice enough to sponsor this episode. The winner is going to get 500 USDT and we are putting on a campaign 10K [music] total. First place in this trading contest is going to get 5K. >> It's going to be awesome. You can be just like our traders here battling it out and see who gets the lead. [music] >> Mhm. Mhm. And if you lose, you could go run a 2K and then, you know, maybe uh burn off some of that anger. I I would say >> that's a great way to burn off anger. Do do some workouts. >> And there might be some angry traders today because like we said, there's going to be some insane leverage. They might get wrecked or maybe they're going to get rich. >> All right. Should we uh go ahead and get started and do that? Do the bell. >> Let's get it going. >> Ding [clears throat] ding ding. Let's start. >> All right folks. Now this is going to be a 45minute clock. I don't know if any traders are looking at a trade or if they're ready to jump in. Drew, I can start with you. Drew, I see I see you doing the the Rodan's thinking man over there. I am putting the thinking [laughter] cap on right here. >> We were getting into some peculiar levels. We've got the crypto market under pressure. You can see hype here on my chart is is dropping. You can see here that what we've got going on. We're coming right into this consolidation. So, I may stick my neck out here and start dipping my toe in the water. Let's see if we can't get a fill here. We go long $50,000. And it looks like I did get filled. at $80 in N. Actually, no, wait. It hasn't gotten triggered yet. Right here, one penny away. Looking to go long on hype. And this is just a very much of a nearterm play. Let's see if we can't get it pushed up just a little bit more. I'm at $80.91 sitting right on top of a fill. Just was filled right there. Now, the issue is you see here, we've got an inclining trend line where price has broken down from. [music] Now, generally, this is bearish, but again, we've got a very short time frame. prices come right back into this top of the consolidation. We should be due for a little bounce and [music] thus I went very very light on this play. Plus, we're getting a little oversold near term. My other angle could be on Bitcoin coming up soon. Um, but at least for now, started $50,000 there at $80.91. Out of the money ever so slightly. I'll expand this up so we can get a bigger area. You can see we can get into the money very very quickly with a move up here right to this consolidation spot right here about $81.52. We just need a little bit of a pop [music] for that retrace to that inclining trend line. >> All right, guys. I may have >> now Hyperlid actually one of my favorite altcoins. Hopefully it's not hyperlquidated. Oh, what do you got, Jake? Sorry. >> No worries. Yeah. Uh, if you pan to my screen, I'm looking at Trumpcoin and it is doing a head and shoulders pattern here on the one minute and this blue line is the neckline. I'm going to put my limit order just a little below if we can get a a retrace back up above this high. Um, I'm going to go 100,000 short with 75x leverage. See if we can get a fill here. All right. And if there's anyone in the chat that knows Baron Trump, tell him to sell out of his private wallet. >> Yeah, we'll make the show really entertaining then. >> Guys, I entered a longion [music] 300x leverage. Long. [clears throat] I'm long Bitcoin. [music] uh million 300x leverage right here at 777 67 [music] or 69. Basically, my break even price is about 100 bucks higher, but I think if we can break up, we should be good. I'm about I just had to sneeze really quick. The reason why I like this is because of a potential inverse head and shoulders pattern. >> Thank you so much. That was a very intense [clears throat] sneeze. I feel like I [music] just sneezed out three generations of bad juju. Um, but I'm watching this inverse head and shoulders neckline. If it breaks to the upside, we should be off to the races. But also, we did end up breaking this nice up slipping trend line. Maybe a retrace to that, even though we maybe look like we're bare flagging. We'll see. >> All right, guys. We did get filled on our leverage. Shout out to Weeks for giving me the ability. >> Jake, are you in [music] the money? Um, not yet. It's all good. See, we may get a retrace full to this neckline. All right, the [music] guys are in. We have begun. We're just about 10 minutes in, everybody. And again, thank you to Weeks, our sponsor. In chat, we see your um questions and concerns in the chat. Don't worry, we will find a way to address that soon. But so just stick with us. What's going on? Somebody just had something. >> Uh yeah, me. Um looks like it's going the opposite way. All right. Good thing we did [laughter] isolated leverage on this. We may get liquidated from our Trump short, but that is all right. We have plenty of resources to tilt trade other. But we'll see. We'll see. This could be a fake retrace to this pivot top here. Would still give us breathing room for this. So let's see. You must be patient. >> Yeah. And if you're in America, I mean, I've I've traded on it. I I I can't speak for everybody. So, I haven't had any issues, at least here in Florida. I do know New York State sometimes will put some uh some limitations on what you can and cannot trade. So, that might be a state-by-state basis there. >> Yeah, I was I was on weeks yesterday and I was it was working fine for me. [music] So, I'm not sure. We'll just keep uh troubleshooting that issue for you or maybe just check your own. >> All right, we're in the money, guys. Let's see. >> Now, lot you were sneezing earlier. Were you sneezing after those who don't know, he was >> Guys, we are also in the money here with this retrace play. >> And guys, I am actually looking to take profit pretty soon. I'm going to go ahead and put some money in the bank account. Come on. Just a little bit more of a push. There we go. Just filled, guys. >> [music] >> I am out of this position. Up $234. >> All right, Drew. >> Already got one in the bank. [music] >> In the lead. >> Ooh. All right, guys. We did get liquidated on our >> short more. I'll be chilling. Look at that unrealized P&L right there, baby. Look [music] at that. Rookie numbers. >> All right, let's see if you can close it. might be getting out of this position. [laughter] >> I had a problem with that last week. >> Well, I have a stop loss in place. Okay, I am out. I have made $750 after fees. 750. [music] >> Nice. >> All right. >> After fees. >> What was that? About 500. [laughter] >> That was a bit cocoinius. [music] They don't call me Bitcoinius Dominus Rex Latonius. Yeah, I did end up paying like a thousand bucks in fees. That's why I only made $750. But [music] it is what it is. >> That's that's one of my routes today. I only went with 50x leverage and only went with $50,000. Had a very minimal amount of fees. So, I was in the money just like that. So, it's kind of nice on this particular play. This is a bounce retrace play that's honestly in a bearish consolidation manner. So, we should be heading lower on both [music] Bitcoin and Hype. But both Lton and I saw that breakdown and had an opportunity for that bounce at least to squeeze out a little bit of profit. Now we've got a little bit of a V-shaped recovery on hype and also a cup and handle pattern on Bitcoin on the one minute chart. So it looks like Bitcoin actually is going to continue pushing up a little bit more. Same thing with Hype. And if both do uh depending upon the time left on the clock, we likely are going to be initiating some shorts. I know I probably will. Only got $500 to catch up on. That's just a little bit of amount as you can see here. That amount stacks very quickly with about 10 20 cents of movement on these cryptocurrencies. [music] >> Yeah, with the 100x trade, Drew, that's like 90 seconds. You can go ahead and make that back. And uh if you're wondering about the clock, about 37 minutes left. And so folks, there's still plenty of time for people to get rich or maybe get wrecked. We're going to find out. We got Lton in the lead right now, but according to the poll, everybody is voting mostly for [music] Drew to win with 40% in the lead. Then in second place, Lton and then Jake. But I think it's just cuz Jake is is a new contender and people are new to him. My money's >> Hey, that's No worries. No worries, guys. We're going to come from behind. [music] >> I did enter another arena you were just stepping out of there, Jake. >> That was the dungeon. the gym. We did enter another trade on Ethereum. >> That's a high-tech gym. >> Oh, the American Gladiators uh train at >> who just gotten in on Ethereum. Was that you, Jake? [music] >> Yeah, I got on Ethereum. $150,000 199x [music] leverage long on Ethereum. We're seeing this nice bullish consolidation here. [music] Still hovering around this the top of the flag pattern here. Let's see if we can get a push up to the [music] upside. We're about a thousand in the hole. Let's see if we can recover from [music] this. >> And you can recover from that. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> That That's light work. Light work. That's what he says. Uh in the gym every day. Light work, baby. That's just light light. >> Lifting. >> 250 lbs. No problem. [music] >> Now, jeez, look how jacked he is there. Now, I do have a quick question. Do we have a uh a trivia question for the chat here? This my one of my favorite parts of the show here is the trivia. >> We do have trivia. [music] >> All right, our first trivia question is which newspapers headline is is embedded in Bitcoin's uh Genesis block. >> It's a great question. >> The Daily Huddle. >> Some say this is a clue into Satoshi's identity. >> Oh, so options are A. A the Wall Street Journal, B the Daily Huddle, C The Times, or D The Guardian. >> Chat, put in your answers as well. See what you guys think. >> Drew voted for D. >> Double D, baby. >> Double D dose. They call him D. >> It's got a double dose of the of the trading. >> Yes, sir. [music] >> What other answer you got? Jake, you have a guess for us? Uh, B, the Daily Huddle. That is my guess. >> The Daily Huddle. And I see chat. Someone voted for Wall Street Journal. >> All right. We'll let some more uh answers come in. And if you're wondering what that was, that was that was Lton's agent. Yeah. That's his That's his secret secret weapon, I like to call it. >> The answer is C. The Times. It's the one answer nobody said. >> Yeah. So it's it's based out of England. It's some would call it the London Times because if we have the New York Times, it's the London Times. And some say that gives us a clue that Satoshi might have been British. >> Why? >> You really don't know. >> We're all Satoshi. >> We're all [music] Satoshi. >> If you own at least one dollar of Bitcoin, you are Satoshi. Well, >> but if you have 99 cents, get out of here. >> All right. Lton is still in the [music] lead and we got about 33 minutes left on [music] the clock. And CryptoAZ putting out a good clue there. Hodddle came later actually. >> Oh, right. Now 33 minutes left on the clock. 333. [music] Everybody there. Do you own any Bitcoin? >> I I actually do right now. I'm long on Bitcoin right now. Um with my practice money. I'm new to this everybody. So [music] I'm I've got >> So you're leverage trading it. But do you own any like you know to not trade with? >> Oh no. I think I'm all in Salana. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Okay. That's >> Salana's probably going to be a good coin. And I would say, you know, 5 years from now, I could see it being $500. But, you know, who knows? Who knows, folks? This is crypto. >> This is crypto. We have a new poll up, everybody. Who do you think has the worst poker face? [laughter] Lton, Drew, or Jake? I'm going to put my vote in right now. [music] I'm in my secret YouTube account, so >> I'm curious about this cuz one of us may or may not have played poker >> as a big-time hobby. really >> one of us. >> Now, Jude, do you have any tournament wins or was this you like to play online back in the day? >> Yes. Yes. And yes. >> Now, some of the older viewers will remember there was a period in America where [music] Texas Holdem swept the nation. It was like it was like Pokemon Go did, >> but it was poker instead. My whole family got really into it around like 2008. [music] >> Mhm. Sounds about right. >> Yeah. 200, what was that, Nick? 2002, 2001. Chris Money Maker on ESPN. It just >> something like that. Yeah. You would have like celebrities on ESPN oo playing. >> Yep. Yep. And then it just swept us all by storm. No doubt about it. When I was in college, um computers at that time too for it's hard to even imagine. They weren't really accessible. Not everybody had computers at their house. But when I went into school at college at NC State, I saw that computer lab [music] and I can log into party poker right there in between classes. When I got done with my homework, of course, and uh was certainly playing some party poker back then. Have had several uh tournament wins in Tampa Bay and Vegas, you name it. It's been a lot of fun. So, I I love poker. I love the mathematics. It's a lot of transition into um uh trading as well because you you don't make money unless you put your money at risk. The same thing's true with poker. the those poker chips, the way I looked at them, they were kind of like soldiers and I needed to put them into battle in order for me to conquer and win more armies and get those chips back. So, it's the same sort of concept with investing. Scared money does not make money. >> Drew, you might have been a good Magic the Gathering player if you're good at poker. There is a good translation of those skills. >> Really awesome. Well, hey, I want to follow in your footsteps then, sir. have not yet played. And knowing that you were a pro in that manner, too, man, there's no better else, no better no better person for me to learn from than you. So, that would [music] be awesome. >> Good thing you're in finances cuz as soon as you get into Magic, uh, you start buying more cards and more cards and more cards and more cards. >> Next thing you know, you have tens of thousands of dollars worth of cardboard. >> That happened to me at least. >> Uh, yeah. Hey, let's go to Jake and talk and let's just get You're new to this uh crypto thing with you. Some of our viewers normally see you doing stocks. So, like what's different here for you? >> Yeah. How are your trades going? >> Um, trades aren't going the best right now. So, [music] I'm looking to reshort Trumpcoin as this uh downs sloping trend line from these top [music] of these pivots here. Uh, if price pushes back to the top of this trend line, I will write [music] and write and uh reshort it here. Just Ethereum just continues to consolidate in this bullishlike flag. So, I'm I'm still patient on that for a move to the upside there. >> All right. Now, Jake, do you remember when Magcoin came out? >> Uh, I do not. Uh, did did everyone pile into that? >> So, Magacoin came out before the official Trump memecoin. And so the whole Trump community went into MAGAcoin, but then when Trump launched his own memecoin, MAGA plummeted cuz they're like, "Well, why am I going to be in this coin if there's an official coin?" >> Yeah. >> And it definitely own his own rug. >> We just passed the 30 minute mark, so we still got 30 minutes, guys. You got plenty of time [music] to see who can make it to the top. There's Yeah. So, [music] let's uh >> All right, guys. I'm get I'm looking to get into another trade. Got about $20 away before I get into [music] drum roll, please. Uh Bitcoin. I'm going to get back into Bitcoin. Pick up where Lton left off. >> Say $20. >> Yeah. So, it's not it's not uh it's not Pepe. [laughter] You can rule that one out. But yeah, looking to get back into Bitcoin. What I got going on this chart? [music] Um, yes, we did have a breakdown as Lton and I already explained. However, this breakdown has now bounced back up and is starting to put in a little bit of consolidation as you can see here. Just very much near-term analysis. [music] We have a pivot high back here. Connect that pivot high with the next pivot high and you can see we have broken out from that near-term. I'm looking to get just a little bit more of a dip down here. $77,800. Wanted to see price retrace all the way to this trend line, but very well may not get there. And if it does, I can simply add as well. [music] All right. So, we have a situation price coming back in. The ultimate bearish signal though for Bitcoin is this break. [music] So, I'm really kind of taking a risk trying to go long again. But I do see this cup and handle pattern that looks like it's already starting to elevate ever so slightly. We've got moving averages on Bitcoin as well [music] that is trying to support this range in the one minute time frame. So, um this this is an interesting area. If we get a break here, we end up could come straight down to this declining trend line, in which case would get us a great fill and hopefully a pending bounce to go along with that. Lton, are you just hitting the snooze button just wanting to watch >> and see what other blood baths can occur? >> Listen, I need to give you guys a [music] a little bit of a help. In fact, I've just been chilling. I actually restarted my computer. So, in that time, I just I'm curious to see in the time it took me to restart my computer, connect to the internet, fix everything, log back into my exchange. [music] Uh, what progress have you guys made? Drew, any new trades? Jake, any uh how's your trade going? >> I've dug my hole a little deeper, but we're still trying. >> Ah, I see. So, basically is still in the lead. >> Same exact thing. [music] >> I see. However, the poll is back and 74% of our viewers said that Lton has the worst poker face. [music] [laughter] >> I listen, I wear my heart on my sleeve. What can I say? I've been doing it my >> If you if you don't mind telling the story, I heard you saw Zoron Mdani in New York City this weekend. Was this in the free grocery store or was this walking around? Was this in the subway? >> Two days ago. Yeah, we um I was actually going to the World Trade Center to um [cough and clears throat] there's like a mall underneath it and they sell like different arts and crafts. So, my girlfriend wanted to go check something out [music] and it's actually right nearby city hall. So, we were almost there and we were in a in [music] a cab. I was like sleeping. She goes, "Lorn, wake up. I smoked." I was like, "What?" I was like like what a crazy thing. And he was just walking down the street. I guess he [music] had finished, you know, some business at city hall. So he was there. I didn't say anything to >> I think he was flying paper airplanes at the site. >> Oh, I shouldn't have said [music] too much. That's too far. [laughter] >> We're alive, everybody. We're alive. And remember, we the the do not follow what is happening today for your normal trading endeavors because what we're doing is quite chaotic and quite abnormal and [music] just mainly for uh entertainment purposes. >> Yeah, 100% 100%. Do not, you know, jump in 200x leverage. But if you do want to trade with, you know, maybe more of the verified investing mindset where you can also see my trades on my show Monday through Thursday at the same time slot on this channel, I do want to highly recommend Weeks. Uh, and again, there's going to be a 10K prize pool, 5K to first place, but for the BI members only. >> For BI members only. Again, Weeks is our sponsor of Crypto Combat. And because of them, our winner gets to take away 500 USDT today, which is really exciting. But again, you got that QR code down below. Don't forget to check that out. >> 100% 100%. Now, Drew, second place can't feel good to you. Are are you eyeing uh another position? Are you thinking about adding? What do you got going on over there? >> Well, yeah, I'm still waiting on this fill on Bitcoin. Now, on this chart, we did actually make a run up to this other secondary declining trend line and got rejected. So, it's actually not making me as keen as to want to go long on Bitcoin. The thing is is that we're just losing a little bit of volatility on this chart. As you can see here, when Lton and I first got into our longs, had a [music] great push up higher. Since then, price consolidated, came down, was looking to get into an entry if price came straight down. We in turn [music] bounced up and retested this declining trend line. The good news is if we get a continued dip, the next attempt is likely to break through that declining trend line. But I'm starting to stack a lot of um probabilities against me to go long since we have this narrow time frame. You know, if I I ideally, if I had more time, I'd short this. I'd short Bitcoin. We're due for a little bit more of a pullback. We've been in a consolidation range for a while. But that's the fun of this game. And that's why it's fun to play it as well because again, it's just kind of you got to push yourself to the limit. Like where can [music] we make some money in just the next 10 minutes, not the next hour, not the next 3 hours, just the next 10 minutes. [music] where can I make $1,000? And it looks like Bitcoin is starting to push back up into that trend line and start to break out a little bit. So, what I'm going to do, I'm going to move my order back up. And I haven't let go of the trigger yet. I want to see where this candle can close. You can see that was an attempted breakout and it did so very quickly from the last hit that was made. So, let's see if uh price action can close up above this trend line. And if we do that, I'll just go ahead and jump in long for uh a quick ride of that wave and see if we can't push up to this next um target, >> which would be right up here. This pivot high 78,96 bucks. >> We love always providing that technical analysis even during the craziness of crypto combat. He always >> keeps it pure. >> Yes. >> Collected like like his poker face, you know, kind of. >> He he did win for having one of the best. Him and Jake actually tied for the best poker face. So >> nice. Now, which one is the bigger? >> I don't even I wasn't even there. >> You had this competition while I was gone. [music] >> What are you talking? >> We about 22. >> You had the worst poker face, Slottton. >> All right, whatever. Jake, how's your trade going? >> Um, not the best. Uh, Ethereum, as Drew was saying, kind of [music] following Bitcoin, just straight consolidating on this bull flag. Now, >> wait, I thought you were in Trumpcoin. >> Well, uh, I wasn't that, but I got liquidated. I did still put another uh, order out on Trumpcoin. If we're to [laughter] if we were to come back to So, right here, I have this downs sloping trend line from the top of these pivots and then now price is already making a bull. Oh man, look at that. We missed the move on that. What a bummer. >> Our Ethereum >> for another trivia everybody. >> Our second trivia question is H O DL [music] started as what? A a misspelling of hold in a 2013 forum post. B a Norwegian word for vault. Hey, >> see Gareth Soloway typo allegedly [music] or D an acronym for hold on for dear life. >> I like [music] D. >> What? >> I thought it was a Gareth typo. [laughter] >> I heard some people throw out some answers. Traders, what did you guys say? >> Uh Drew and I said A and Jake said B. [music] >> Right in the chat. I'm seeing you chat. We got a lot of people voting for A. [music] Two people voted for D so far, an acronym for hold on for dear life. It says, "Huddle your Bitcoin." The correct answer is A. A misspelling of hold in a 2013 forum post. [music] I learned something new today. >> Yeah. There you go. There you go, folks. And then they turned it into hold on for dear life later, actually. >> Oh, really? Okay. So, that's like a tricky tricky question almost. Yeah, it is a little bit of a trick question, but we do have the smartest chat in all of YouTube >> and a lot of them did get that question correct. >> Yeah, they technically they only voted for DNA. So, yeah, they're both [music] I guess technically correct. >> All right, guys. I did just get filled on another position. >> We do have the liquidation over there in Jake's corner. >> Uh Jake, how is that trade going? >> Uh we're going good. I mean, we got liquidated from one trade, but we still got half of our balance to still trade. So, we're far from far from being over. >> Really wishin do something. >> I am. >> Yep. I did get filled on another trade. You can see that the volume or at least the the total value of my account up and down. We did have price have a nice plunge back down into this. You can see the small area of consolidation. It's a very much a near-term play hoping to get a bounce to reattack this declining trend line. If we end up pushing through lower, we got a double bottom near-term on the one minute time frame that could correspond with this declining trend line and then provide us a bounce at that opportunity. It's likely going to be around 77,670. Uh where I will add to the position and I I went in with $300,000. So if we take a profit up here, what's this going to give us? Take profit. So, what do I need? About 400 bucks to get lot. [music] So, that's doable right up here near this trend line if we can get a if we can get a nice push up here on Bitcoin. >> But does that [music] count fees though? >> I basically have very little fees. I'm I'm doing 100x leverage. I'm not going with 250. So the fees and my break even are are basically right at my entry because I don't even see a break even >> on weeks. The higher the leverage, the higher the fees. >> Correct. [music] >> And we do have a new poll out. Chat, where were you on October 6th, 2025 when Bitcoin printed $126,000? 19. Well, $126,000. [music] I can't read. Where were you? where you sold the top. Sold nothing. I let it go down. [music] Bought the top or I wasn't in yet. I missed out. I missed out personally cuz I I didn't I I didn't know anything about crypto back [music] then. But now >> I made a prediction two years prior that the top was going to happen September 27th and then it happened on October 6th. So I was about 10 days away. However, because we weren't topping in Euphoria, I thought we were going to go higher. >> Didn't sell any. I put a stop loss in. So that did just take me out. >> What? The stop What? The stop loss was in the money, but it knocked me down 213 bucks. I was in the money. 50 bucks. All right. So now we got to press it. >> Now we got to press it. >> Those are freeze, baby. >> That was No, it just slung my stop out here. All right. >> It's It's because the way it works is if you have a stopout, it's uh market orders your stopout. Not limit order your stuff. [music] >> Yeah. Now we got Bitcoin coming down. Nice. This could give us the opportunity we were looking for. Let me see a little bit more of a flush. A little bit more of a flush. Oh, just missed me. Oh, no. Wait. It should fill me then. [music] All right. Yeah, I should be in. I'm in. >> I'm sure you're in Bitcoin. I'm in half a million bucks Bitcoin long >> and then we'll add to this position. >> Can Can we leave that that chart [music] full screen for a second? I just want to bring Jake into this. Jake, look at that chart. What pattern do you see on that chart? [music] Is that a chart you'd go long? >> Um, no. I'd rather short that to be honest. >> Why is that? Um [music] maybe like a head and shoulders like pattern something like that. >> Exactly. That's a perfect head and shoulders pattern on the one minute chart [music] pretty much. >> So I don't know. >> Yeah. One that hasn't dangerous. >> Sometimes you get the double shoulder. >> Why not two heads? >> You do >> like a conjoined twin situation. >> Yeah. Uh what what's their name? They're married now. They're teachers. Uh >> I'm just not going to touch that one. I didn't mean it like that. They're not. I'm just going to move on. >> One of them's married. The other one isn't. That is actually >> bounce on Bitcoin. Drew, are you killing it right now? >> Not doing too bad, my man. >> Let's see. >> All right, let's see where that poll. It looks like 50% of people said they sold at the top at Bitcoin in October of last year. >> You know, they're listening to Gare. He did say sell. >> They were. [music] And hey, I didn't know anything about about Bitcoin or crypto then, but after watching uh Lton 0 to 60 crypto edition trader, that actually like really helped me a lot and got me to where I am now. So, thanks, L. >> Oh, you're very welcome. I'm so glad I can enable you to [music] trump uh trade uh Fartcoin better. >> That's the >> That's the dream, everybody. [music] >> It's a generational buying opportunity on Fcoin, everybody. Hm. >> Let's make fartcoin [music] a thing again. I was going to say great again. Um, >> but you need a red hat for that. >> I just want to make fart. [laughter] >> Brown. It would have to be brown. Yeah, >> it it matched the shirt. It matched [music] the shirt. >> Yeah. >> Now, Drew, are you catching up to Lotton? Lton, are you thinking about entering a trade? How how are you two uh fellas doing? >> Listen, [music] Drew hates being in second place, >> right? So, I think with this trade, he will move out of second place. [music] [laughter] >> Is it third or first? >> Oh, he's going to third. This is a head and shoulders is coming down. It looks like it's it looks like [music] it's going to fall here if it breaks. It hasn't broken yet to be fair, but it's close. All >> [music] >> right, chat. We do have a trash talk bonuses and right now Lton's in the lead. Until I hear Jake and Drew, you know, maybe come with some verbal barbs. He might get a 10% bonus. >> Here's the thing. Drew is too nice to Drew's too nice and Jake is busy fighting God knows what coin. This guy, you've you've literally just brought a lamb to slaughter. This guy is woken up and he's surrounded by [music] these insane individuals. He doesn't have the mental, you know, the lack of the the the degeneracy to succeed in cryptocurrency yet. I think he can get there with a couple more, you know, loss of brain cells. He he [laughter] could get there, but he's not there yet. >> We are going to we are continuing to try. We're still in that Ethereum as that just continues to chop. It's [music] It's bringing us down uh 500 bucks right now on our Ethereum play. A uh we're still trying to play long uh Trump throw it [music] Trumpcoin. If we can drop down to this 2.54 consolidation level, [music] we will go long there. >> Guys, we got about 12 minutes left on the clock. >> I was very close to getting that $700, too. >> Oh, what was that? True. >> I was very, very close to getting that $700, too. Bitcoin has since uh turned back around on the charts. We got up to $77,814. I was $30 away from getting that $700 price tag. And you can see price action has now broken the neckline of the head and shoulders pattern. [music] We know crypto can be um crypto can be hard to get along with from time to time on following some of these patterns. Sometimes it can take a little bit longer for them to play out. So, let's see if we can't meander right here on this neckline, get a bounce up. It's not far away. Even if we dip a little bit further, I've got a buy level on the lower right armpit of this head and shoulders pattern to see if we can't at least retrace to the scene of the crime of that neckline and then potentially break to go higher. U but as I've said before, this was a bearish pattern. So, I am going against the grain. I knew I was, but I wanted to just get a little bit of a quick score out there. Um, looking like this so far is putting me against the wall. Pretty tough situation here. Hype also declining. Got other cryptos that are falling. S&P 500 has been under pressure today and is forming a bare flag this afternoon. So, not a lot of investors are super excited about piling back into some risk-on uh opportunities mainly in crypto, >> man. All right, let's get on with this trivia that we have. Number three, who received [music] the very first Bitcoin transaction from Satoshi Nakamoto? Was it A. Nick Zabo, B. A [music] guy named Steve, C. Adam Back, or D. Hal Finny. >> Tiny [music] Finny. >> Finny. >> All right. >> D. >> Any any guesses? All right. >> B Steve. >> D. >> Steve. I like that. I like B. Steve. Looks [music] like the chat knows their stuff. [music] And the correct answer is D. Hal Finny. Good job, chat. >> Now, fun fact about how Finny, little side turn here. There were posts on a Bitcoin forum by Satoshi Nakamoto. A lot of people thought Hal Finny was Satoshi, but Howal Finny was photographed [music] running a marathon while some of these posts were posted on the forum. So they're able to determine he was not Satoshi. But then people would go another step further and say, "Well, what if he had a, you know, some sort of al [music] or you know, he coded it this way to have a delayed message?" >> I mean, he could. Wait, does nobody know who Satoshi is? >> No. >> Really? [music] >> Correct. >> It's me. >> We just know his name. >> And he has a variety of wallets with a million Bitcoin in it. >> Oh my gosh, that is super interesting. Oh. >> Oh, wow. Look at that popping Bitcoinius. >> Yeah. Now, I did get filled on an ad, too, guys. And oddly enough, I did get filled basically right at the low. We need to see this base and start pushing up towards the high-end range. I will take a little bit off the table if we do that. This is allowing me to go ahead and adjust with two different positions in here. Pretty interesting. This first leg up, as you can see, >> potentially pushing to $670.95. All we got to do is get up to $77,810. All we need, guys, is about 4050 bucks push on Bitcoin. >> It's not that much to ask. Oh, and then now it's turning right back around. Oh, man. Stealing the >> 9 minutes, too. >> I can't see. Do you have a liquidation price, Drew, or No, [music] I can't see it. Uh, I don't know. That doesn't concern you, sir. [music] [laughter] >> All I All I went in with I have 900,000 on it. >> I got a,000 uh USDT left. >> So, I'm basically 90% of my portfolio >> is is in this trade. [music] >> What a bounce in rejection here. >> Your position have any kind of movement on there? Are you is it looking better? Is it looking worse? >> Um, our Ethereum play is looking worse. We're down another $500 and we're trying to get position uh short here on the sharp move up here on Magma USDT. If we can get another pop up to this pivot top here. [clears throat] >> Oh, Drew. >> Yeah. Not looking good. >> Hilarious to you over there. >> No way. I'm just [music] my heart is out for Jake because like first he goes on the Trump coin immediately got liquidated and then when you check on him now he's like well no Ethereum's gotten worse ever. >> This guy's trying to trade magma. Listen next next episode I got you. You could trade like >> [music] >> uh junk cam coin >> junk. [laughter] >> Somebody make it >> or like that just so we can trade it next time. >> Wait, Drew. Drew, are you not liquidated yet? >> Not yet. No, >> it's getting close though cuz I see zero uh 96 bucks over here on the right hand side. >> So, one more. >> All right, there we go. I look at that one green candle of hope. >> All it takes is one minute. Come on. Come on. >> Come on. Just another little push to go down anymore. You're [music] getting cooked. >> It's pretty close. >> Oh, Drew. Come on, >> guys. This is why >> the technical patterns. That's why Head and Shoulders patterns. [music] >> Hey, he was calling before it even triggered. Dude, that doesn't even mean anything. You're You're like looking into the future on something that could >> What is this, [laughter] >> bro? >> There it is. >> I got to move my potato [music] chips. I >> We got a new poll. Will Jake use the Hail Mary? it. Uh, >> you're the last about >> Did you get liquidated? >> It doesn't say it. No, I'm still I still got numbers ticking around. >> Get off of that view, guys. Can we get [music] off? Dude, this thing is tanking. There's no way you're not liquidated. It's impossible. >> Well, I guess put put him in the machine. Let's see what Lton can say. I think it did 50x. So, a little bit more wiggle rooms. There's 0% chance. There's no percent chance. Hey, I'm still in the game. Obviously, Lton's lying over here because stuff is still moving on my chart. To his charts right now, producer. >> Yeah, >> throw it to his charts. I want to see this. Get this out of here. >> Let me see Drew's charts. The crazy thing is, too, this one candle put price up over $300. Now, here's our last chance for any sort of return >> is a bounce right here. I'm still in. I'm still in. [music] >> How is that even possible if you're available to zero? >> Hey, I'm not arguing. I'm still in the game. But man, a fade from here was the play. Goodness gracious. That was the play. Now, what happens when we do have a head and shoulders trigger? We generally have price come right back up. The problem is I don't have any more to add down here to pull down my average. As you can see here, down uh totaling about $2,000 now on this trade. Um time is ticking, too. Not looking bueno. >> All right, folks. We're at the five minute mark. Five minutes left, everybody. [music] >> Five minutes and uh it's looking pretty good for Lton right now. So, >> it is. But Jake, I do have a little opportunity for you. If you go all in on one trade, you're going to get the Hail Mary and you're going to get a bonus for that if you [music] do. >> Yeah, I'm uh I'm trying to short Litecoin right now as it comes down into this area. 4869. We just put an >> Litecoin is a popular coin. Now everybody, next week, letting you know, next week we have a very special Crypto Combat episode. We are doing >> Are we going to have like a funeral like like it's a '90s sitcom? Like a very special episode? Oh, the neighbor kid does drugs and tries to get the TV off. >> We're doing stock pairs only. It's going to be even more intense cuz you know these guys in the stocks world. So be sure to check out next Friday, September 4th, right here. same place, same time for a very special [music] edition episode of doing stock pairs only. >> I do like this very special episode. It's on the 90s sitcom, by the way. [laughter] >> Wait for Crypto Combat, we're doing Stock Pairs. [music] >> Yes. >> Yeah. Next Friday. >> Nobody told me. >> Well, we're telling you now. >> You're hanging out with mom Donnie. >> That's true. >> There's This guy This guy has god mode on or something. There's no way Drew could still Dude, this thing keeps falling. >> Oh, [laughter] what a beautiful Head and Shoulders pattern. >> Dude, this guy literally has god mode. >> You know what it did? It turned out to be a wonderful head and shoulders. I was calling it the whole time. It was a bearish break. We went long, then we started bubbling up here. I got lured in by this nice declining trend line here. But, you know, the place to play that, folks, is likely down here. Um, I just got in a little bit too early. Trying to again get a little bit excited, get some more uh uh capital in that bank account. But you can see here price is trying to bounce right here on this declining trend line. Amazing how when you just draw these lines, how price reacts to it. And especially too with this neckline. Notice when price bounced up here, giving me a little bit of hope, broke it, gave me another little bit of hope here, but then that was simply a retest back down and and ended up selling. So, yeah, Bitcoin's not looking too rosy for this picture for me today. Looking like uh we're going to end up in the loser circle. Uh unfortunately, >> guys, I told you he was moving out of second place. >> He's moving out of second place, buddy. [music] Move over, Jake. >> All right, guys. We're going to we're going to have our last minute Hail Mary Curt Warner to Tory Halt in the 2010 Super Bowl. We're trying to send it. We're going to short AK. [music] >> All right, Jake, [music] let's go. >> All right, Jake. I think you just triggered a Hail Mary. >> He's not even able to get in. [laughter] He doesn't He can't get in. It doesn't count. It doesn't matter. >> After one day of working out with Jake, >> you [laughter] can't get in. >> And in space, >> it was [music] We rode up on a SpaceX rocket, you know, just up the road. >> Yeah, they they launch every like 5 hours. It's okay. We live in Florida. >> What's the time looking like for this Hail Mary for Jake? >> We a minute and 15 seconds. >> All right. All right. Come on. Let's go. >> Jake, did you get into it, though? >> I I'm not even in. He's not even in. [laughter] >> Jake, >> you got a minute. >> Oh, man. >> Just in and out. [music] In and out. >> He can't. He can't. >> Is Jake trying to trade Ache? >> Yes, I am. Jake Ache, short for Jake. >> Listen, if this was an options [laughter] combat show, Jake would smoke all of you guys. >> Unfortunately, it's not. I think Jake's 40 seconds. >> We can't even get a market order in here. Come on. >> It's cuz you're I think you're fully allocated, Jake. >> All right, 30 seconds, guys. >> Bitcoin is perking back up, [music] but >> I got too long to go. >> I've even closed one of my positions. I'm throwing in the towel, guys. This one's not looking good today. Thanks for the Drew crew. We're going to bring it back next week. No worries. No sweat off my back. You know, Lton's on two hours of sleep. Big deal. You know, heck, I'm on four hours of sleep. [laughter] >> Big deal. Maybe >> for next week. >> Ding ding ding. >> All right, close your positions, everybody. [music] >> Yeah, >> everybody close your positions. We are done. I >> think it's Jake. You got to close your ache. >> [music] >> Yeah, we never got in. So, we had the attempt for Hail Mary, but uh you know, our uh our margin did not allow that. >> Dude, did you close your positions? >> I'm trying to do it without the the the stop-loss so it doesn't just run away with my price. There we go. I'm out. >> Just that. Okay, let's see the final score. >> Boom. Boom. Boom. [music] >> All right. So, >> junk cam crew win. >> Yeah, I love that joke. >> Lton is wrong again. I am in second place. >> Yeah. So, so in third place, we've got Jake with a [music] negative 2,200. >> Nothing burger for today, guys. It's all good. We'll get him next time. >> It's all good. And in second place, we've got Drew >> with >> close to 1900. Lost 1891 there. >> All good. >> Thank you for the support, Drew. Crew, the Junk Cam boys. You guys are in trouble next week.

I'll trade stocks, cryptocurrency, your mom. I'll trade anything. >> Junk. >> No. Lot. Are you wearing the lucky pants? The chat is wondering. [music] >> I'm not. But do you want to see my pants? >> Nope. >> We We'll leave that to the junk cam. >> I'm good, bro. >> All right. >> That's [laughter] for the members only. >> I don't want to show you anything. >> I don't want I don't want to show you any fine. >> Yeah.
