Alright, so we're continuing with football on the Sports Snacks Zone. Trinidad and Tobago and their soca warriors will host the Jamaica's reggae boys in two friendly matches. The first will be played at the Hazley Crawford Stadium on Friday, while the second will be on Sunday at the Larry Gones Stadium. But both teams are utilizing mostly local-based players. Let's take a look at the squads now. So for Trinidad and Tobago, we have Denzel Smith, Adrian Fonsette, Christopher Biggett as goalkeepers for the defenders, Alvin Jones, Jamal Jack, Robert Primus, Justin Garcia, Josiah Trimmingham, Chavones Hamilton, and Ross Russell Jr. What about in the midfield? Dwayne Moquette, John Paul Rocheford, Justin Sadu, Kele Overe, Kai Moose, Kevon Goddard, Liam Burns, Nathaniel Garcia, Mitchell Poon Angaron, Kai Gavi, Rondell Gibson, and Keheen Thomas. And the forwards, Nathaniel James, Michael Jem Gordon, Michael Chavez, and Justin Obiku. What about Jamaica now? In the midfield, they have Alex Marshall, Shamir Smith, Joshan Anglin, Romeo Cossery, and Jameon Shepard. The forwards are Kahim Dixon, Fabian Reed, Shniel Thomas, Jason Wright, Justin Dunne, Andrew Fletcher, and Steve Bante Campbell. What about the so-called Warriors' head coach, that's Angus Eve? He spoke on the importance of giving the local-based players opportunities, such as these. Looking at the league, you know, I said from the outset that when the league first started, we probably wouldn't see the fruits immediately. But I think it's time for us to look at the league and see what we can do. You know, I said from the outset that when the league first started, we probably wouldn't see the fruits immediately. And this second season, we started to see no players come until the four. And you know, young burns and these young, these players Gibson, who played for Eagles. So we looked at them, and we thought we even saw some senior players, like Primus, you know, he's playing really well for the police FC. So you know, Fonset, he's saving excellent also. The new players, we have some new players. Unfortunately, some of them got injured in the last couple of games in the pro league matches, and so they're not here right now. Likaku, I think he's gone to Army now from AC Port of Spain. He's been doing very, very well, but has a knee injury. David from Rangers, he was doing really well. We wanted him in. We had him in the camp. He has a knee injury. Isaiah Lee, who's been playing very well for Rangers. He's also injured and so can't be in the group now. So there's a number of players that we wanted to be here and can't be here because of injury and then the other ones that we have them here and fully hope that they participate and do well so that we could go for the best impossible. Yeah. Well, the sole foreign base, the rugby boy, goalkeeper, Jaden Hebert, who was picked at number 19 in the 2024 MLS Superdraft, says he's delighted to be named in this squad. Yeah, I was a static man. I mean, you know, a national team for any country is amazing to represent. My family back home couldn't be happier for me. So it's a great opportunity. I hope it continues in the future. All right. So our very own Brent Sancho is still with us. And Brent, of course, we're getting ready for this international friendly. Very important that two Caribbean football powerhouses are going to be up against each other. I'll start by asking you one about what Angus Eve had to say about, you know, the importance of including the local base to players. Let me start by saying that I don't think they're more friendly and a game between Trinidad and Jamaica goes hand in hand from even from my recollection. Oh, Brent, no. There is no such thing as friendly because of course of the rivalry and the history of the rivalry. I mean, I've played in games and CSC games where it was, as they said, everything was left on that pitch. And even when we go on and we went on to the quarterfinals, the same Jamaica team that we fought with, they were there cheering us on against Benisweila. But it shows you the type of rivalry that's about to be found when it comes to football. This is not good. Let me tell you. It is. Listen, it's about bragging rights. It's about everything that comes with the Caribbean king of the Caribbean, the best footballing team in the Caribbean. And so when you try to, of course, put together friendly and trying to make it versus Jamaica, it never really comes up because there's so much at stake. And that's the point I'm making. Of course, we talk about the fact that a lot of these kids have an opportunity to maybe get and force their way into the set the game against Canada and USA, respectively, because there is a situation where teams, as Angus rightfully mentioned, from the respective domestically having an opportunity to play. But again, as I said, there's so much at stake when I turn it out, and to be able to make a game comes about, that it brings it to life. And I'm very sure in both games on Friday and Sunday, that despite the fact that the world friendliest star next to it, the end result is going to be very important for both nations. Brent, did you listen, did you watch at the top of the show, Brent? I watched very well, and I stand by my statement. There is no such, for my history of playing, I know, listen, it's the same thing you could say in a preseason friendly between Manchester United and Man City, the USA, Japan, China, or anywhere else. They're still going, all Manchester United against Liverpool, they're still going to be a lot to play for, because again, the history that these teams have, similarly to Canada and Jamaica, have the similar sort of history when it comes to rivalry. I expect the game to be played at a frantic pace, and also with some sort of passion and cause behind it. Oh no, Brent, I was trying to make a case for myself, and I was explaining to them that both coaches have a really good relationship, and they're actually using these matches to of course benefit the teams moving forward. No, look, there is a lot of benefit for it, and you know, Lance asked me a question a couple of weeks back about, of course, the U-20s and why we're a little bit behind, because these sorts of games are lacking, that you don't see out of the window, out of the FIFA window friendlies, a lot of the countries don't play, and to be able to play a game like this outside of the FIFA window is critical for these countries, because the Trinidad versus Grinidad, Trinidad, Guyana, those sorts of games that played during the week outside the windows was very important for the development of young players, but you don't see it anymore, and I have to give credit to the Boat Association to put together this game, because how important is it? Because at the end of the day, a lot of these guys, and I believe Jamaica has 14 uncapped players, and within the squad Trinidad has a whole list as well of players that have not been capped at that level, so it gives them a chance to experience international football in a competitive environment, and that's exactly what this game brings. It really helps both sets of camps in their preparation towards, although a lot of the kids that are participating in this picture may not feature in the game later on in March for either country, the fact of the matter is they're getting international experience, which helps in their development. Well, since all the men on the team think that it's some big rivalries, I'll use this. The question is, who walks away with the win in this rivalry? Well, I think it's going to be a game for, you know, to look at there's different subplots in it. I think for Trinidad, Tobago, the likes of Aubrey and James, they're now playing their trade at Mount Pleasant, who are on the cusp of a national team set up and started in a couple of games during the nation's league. They would be wanting to, of course, impress their coach, so they would be on that trip. When you look at Josiah Trinidad, Trinidad who's now playing at Montego Bay and having a decent season there for Montego Bay, he would want to try to impress, because that's an area of the pitch where they try to be used a bit deficient defensively. So there are no subplots. And for Jamaica, of course, Young Heming, who we just highlighted, Young Man has been just recruited by Atlanta United. He would want to impress. We already know the spoils of riches that Jamaica has as it relates to their selection of the overseas players. He would try to one of five forces win, of course, the evergreen Fabian Reed. He would certainly want to try to impress. And of course, Kamal Foster, the goalkeeper, who I think is having an exceptional season, I think will also try to squeeze in. So there are a lot of subplots within there where players would be looking at this as an opportunity to impress their respective coaches and force their way into the final record. And I think that in itself is what's going to make, as well as, as I mentioned, the rivalry will make this game very, very competitive and very hard to call. Yeah, but admittedly, Brent, a small percentage of the players who will be seeing on the weekend would be likely to be in those Nations League and Copa America playing matches that TNT and the Jamaicans have on their table in the coming weeks. Yeah, and that's a factor. And again, it's always good. And I think for any nation to have a big pool of players that have been bloodied at the international level, as you know, Lance football is an unpredictable sport and players, as Angus mentioned, a couple of players already injured who would have been called into the sport, moving forward to March. You don't know what can happen between now and the selection of the sport to go to play against Canada. What could transpire? Same thing for Jamaica. What happens before they play the U.S.? If players are hurt and injured. And a good performance. I've seen players, and a very good example of this is a young man called Evans Wise that played with me in the 2006 World Cup. Didn't play one minute of World Cup qualifiers, leading up to the World Cup, but had a very impressive friendly game. I believe it was against Grenada here in Toronto-Bigo and forced himself into the final pool of players that went to Germany back in 2006. So at the end of the day, it's extremely important for these players to have a good showing. Yes, it may seem now that the huge percentage is not possibly in the reckoning, but with a good showing and of course, situations happening, they can find themselves on the plane heading towards these fixtures. Yeah, okay, we're going to leave it there. We will continue to monitor what happens over the weekend because as you mentioned, it's a very important fixture for both these teams as they get ready for Canada and the USA, respectively. Thanks, Brent. All right, guys, have a good one. Yeah, we'll be back with more on the sports night zone after this.


Let's go that way. Okay. It's okay. Hey, buddy Max. Welcome to a very lovely edition of Ask I You. Let's get started. So who are your celebrity valentines? I would say Namer, Junior.

I had a lovely time interviewing some Mighty Max today. I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day. Spread the love. I'll see you later.


Coach is welcome back to our channel. Now today I'm going to show you the difference between doing one-on-one sessions and group training. And I have this chart here. I have other videos on our channel where we've broken down the benefits of group training and how you can scale your business with working less hours with that model. But I really want to show you here on the whiteboard. And after you get done watching this video, if you have any questions for me, text me at this number right here. You're going to see my number pop up on the screen. Send me a text. I'd love to talk to you specifically about your business, about your model. You're doing a lot of one-on-one training and you want to get away from one-on-one training, go into groups. I'd be happy to help you. And you might be doing one-on-one training and you want to charge more. Our program is designed to help you charge more for your one-on-one services or your group training. But I'm going to use this number here, 100. And the reason why I'm using $100 is at this point, I've talked to so many people that do one-on-one training. Some people charge $40 an hour. Some people charge $100 an hour. Some people charge $150 an hour. Some people charge $200 an hour. I'm using this number here as just a simple number to work with. And it doesn't matter if you charge $100 or less or more. Just follow along with me because I'm going to use simple numbers here that you can understand. So let's say Monday through Friday, you have sessions from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. So you have three sessions per day. And let's say with one-on-one training, you're training one player, one athlete per hour. So based off this $100 per hour, with these three hours, you're going to make $300 per day. Now, a lot of people would be thrilled making $300 per day. Here's what I've noticed though. If you're a coach that's making $300 per day and you're doing that daily, you might get to a point where you're really comfortable with your business and you feel good because you're making $1,500 per week if you're working five days out of seven at that rate, making $1,500 a week, which is like six grand per month. A lot of coaches would be very happy with that. But here's the thing. The only way to make more money with this model is if you start adding more hours. So adding a 7 p.m. slot, adding a 3 p.m. slot or adding morning slots. And the problem with that is now you're having to work more hours personally to make more money. And what happens is you end up getting capped with your time unless you bring on coaches that are doing this work for you without you physically fulfilling the sessions. And there are coaches that we help. They do that. They'll have a staff that runs these sessions. They'll run multiple of these sessions per hour at the same location. Right? But the true way to scale is to eventually get away from trading one hour of your time with one client to having it set up where you have set days, set time, set commitment with clients in group training. So here I have a group of six. Now, I figured out just by looking at the numbers, looking at the math with coaches at this point all over the world who want to make instead of $300 per day, they want to make $300 per hour. Okay? There's a big difference here. Instead of making, working three hours here to make 300 bucks, you're working one hour here to make 300 bucks. All right? And so with this model here, we're making three times the amount of income if you have it set up properly. And I'm going to break down how this is set up. So this is if you have a group of six here, a group of six here, a group of six here. So six, 12, 18 clients that are coming in one day to me with you. All right? And the way I have these numbers set up is if each client is paying $200 per month. All right? So if we take $200 per month times six clients, that is $1,200 per group. All right? We take $1,200 divided by four sessions. That's $300 per hour. So with one group, you make $300 per hour, one group of six with this model. All right? Now, the crazy thing about this model is in one night, you can make $900 in one day. All right? Working three sessions. All right? So you can go and crunch the numbers. This is not a typo. You made $900 in one day. Now, if we multiply that out times five days, in one week, you're making $4,500 per week. All right? If we multiply that times four weeks, you're making $18,000 per month, $18,000 per month with this model. All right? That's assuming at that point, you have groups, and the goal is to fill each group with six kids. All right? Now, here's the thing. You would be working equally as hard with this model as you would with this model. You're spending the same amount of time, but you're making three times the amount of income. All right? And this is why with one-on-one training, there's going to be a cap with how far you can go unless you want to just grind it out and work more hours. I know a lot of people who do that, they're happy with their business, but they always get to a point of burnout. And I don't want you to get to a point of burnout with your business. I'd rather you move into this model. This model here, you can impact more clients in one hour, and you make 3x the amount of income in that hour. And that same hour that you'd be spending here, making three times the amount of income here. Now, if you're a coach watching this and you want step-by-step guidance on how to do this with your business, how to make this business easier and more scalable and obviously more flexible for you. All I want you to do is reach me at this number right here, text me there, and that's how you can first get connected with me and then I'll set up a Zoom call with you and I'll see if we are a good fit to help you. We have helped coaches do this at this point daily. And if you're tired of doing one-on-one training, or maybe you want to have a high-end one-on-one training, we're charging way more than this, and you want to have group training set up this way. You have both models set up in one business. What we have would be a great fit for you. So again, reach me at the number that popped up on the screen, and that's the first way of getting to me. You text me there. I'll text you back within the day. That's it. I hope you have a great day.


Okay, so welcome to part two of the webinar series. We're going to go through the auction theory, volume profile, and microstructure and add that on top of what we learned in part one. Risk disclaimer, trading, equities and futures involves substantial risk of loss, is not suitable for all investors, past performance is not indicative of future results.

The DX feed is for equities, bookmap now works with equities. Other resources here, subscribe or follow us on Twitter and then you will get the most updated information and for those of you interested in the recordings of the webinar, well you can see here on our YouTube page you can subscribe to it and you will get the latest alert when the webinars are uploaded here and let me show you where it is in the playlist as well. So this is for yesterday's webinar, there is a new playlist for bookmap education course, click on that and you can see yesterday's here and today's will be in there as well. You can also see it in recorded webinars playlist here but we will probably take that out in the near future. All right, well let's jump in and get going with auction theory, volume profile and microstructure with bookmap and a bit about me, 10 years of trading in a variety of markets, product specialist at bookmap, leading the trading education at bookmap and expert in order flow and market microstructure, I just showed you the Twitter, etc. So let's go over the goals today, what are we looking at, it's an intro to auction theory, volume profile, microstructure, we will look at the historical order flow and its applications, we started to get into that a little bit yesterday and then we are going to look at two simple structures here, range bound and trending and we are going to also touch on the fractal natures of the markets and then we are going to end up with some training exercises. Let's see, questions, I am going to answer questions at the end, so just input them now when you have the thought and I will get to them at the end of the presentation. So yesterday we went over the dome but we are going to move beyond that traditional dome or price ladder because it only displays the current market data which is great. You get your real-time bid and offer, your current price, last traded volume and the spread, however it is fleeting, it displays only for a moment and then it is hard to recall those areas. The historical dome however has these distinct advantages, all of that current data is recorded and plotted onto the chart which allows you to easily see that data and how it unfolded in detail. So you can easily understand the current data and the context within the previous periods and that is a real advantage over the competition. It gives you a lot of insight to the potential of the future behavior here. So a quick review, here is a regular traditional dome, you can see the depth here on the offer, the depth on the bid and then your last traded price here and best bid and offer. So this is the current dome in book map as we reviewed yesterday but the point I am trying to make here is all of this activity in that current dome is recorded and then it is transposed onto the chart historically. So for example we can just look at this very simple example, you can see that they were bidding here previously then they pulled that liquidity as price is coming down and then they started to add back in. Recording or understanding that in your mind within a dome is going to be a lot more challenging and you are going to have to note that area as well as the other areas up here. Lowering the offer with higher liquidity here, it is all here in book map recorded for you so you have a very quick and easy reference and understanding to the behavior in that auction. So let's apply that, now we looked at it yesterday but now we are going to apply it in a structure. We are going to get a bigger picture structural context and we have that record of that intent to trade in those previous areas, easy to compare to the traditional dome, easy to see compared to that traditional dome and then applies to this microstructure. We want to understand the context of that auction and how they previously behaved, currently behaving and then in the advanced lesson we are going to add some additional studies and filters. Again leads to that insight to that future auction activity in anticipated behavior. So let's look at the structure and microstructure here, applying auction theory, volume profile in the context of that auction and the transactions. So a review from yesterday of part one, the historical dome data, let's take a look at what we covered yesterday here just very quickly. We looked at imbalances in the auction. We looked at sweeping activity in the book, absorption and exhaustion and let's take a look here. We are just going to use a simple chart and we are going to take it further from here. So first thing, identify very quickly the sweeping activity that we covered yesterday. We see the sweeping of the price book here to the downside, a rejection, trades right back into the middle. Same action occurred here with this sweep. This sweep was a little different. We can see the sweep down here and we remain below a micro range. You can see one more sweep down here and this rejected and in fact is swept to the opposite side to the opposite side of this range. So the auction imbalances that we recognized yesterday occurred in some of these small areas here as you can see. Points of exhaustion where there is a lack of trading activity. We can see here, here and here as well as these other areas. Now we are going to use all of this information here within the structure. So we just went over that and reviewed lessons from part one but now we are going to extrapolate this data into the micro structure and context with auction theory and a bigger picture understanding of this auction activity and we are going to cover shorter term high liquidity and longer term high liquidity. So let's take a step back in auction theory. What is it? The price at which an asset is traded represented by the highest price a buyer is willing to pay and the lowest price a seller is willing to sell. Buyers enter competitive bids and sellers enter competitive offers. These orders are matched and executed with the aggressor within the auction process. Sounds simple enough. Let's take a look here and our simple example again and we will cover longer term liquidity. So if we take a look here at what is going on in this chart we are first going to identify where the participants are in this auction. Based on this auction theory here the buyers and the sellers where are they and we are looking for the majority of them and we can find them here. Very simple to identify in book map in this historical dome because you can see it. Here is their behavior. They are staying in the book. They want to be sellers up in these areas. They want to be buyers down in these areas. We are looking for the majority of these participants and you can see we are channeling right in between those two. That is the current auction on a bigger scale here. The structural scale we are looking at. Yesterday we are looking at just basic mechanics and now we are applying those basic mechanics to the bigger structure, the bigger picture within this historical limit order book. We can start to identify imbalances in that auction like we did previously. We see high liquidity here. Very short term though. It is in the book for only a short period and then it is pulled. What is this behavior? You can see and we understand from yesterday's lesson how it affects price. We are going to make a distinction between two different types of liquidity. Longer term high liquidity and shorter term high liquidity. The shorter term high liquidity is high liquidity but is briefly in the book. It creates a large auction imbalance. This is new information for the auction participants. It skews that auction and repels price away. Price reacts to the difference in the supply and demand. That imbalance. Understand the context of the area. Are we near areas of longer term liquidity? What are the relationships in the swings in that microstructure and the relationship with volume? We are going to use an analogy here to define this a little bit better here. Let's move on to longer term high liquidity. This is high liquidity that remains in the book. It defines the auction like we are just looking at. This has already been digested, this information, by the auction participants. It knows where the market can trade. It knows that it can trade by finding that higher liquidity that has been in the book for a long time. Usually what is occurring is we have channeling between those longer term areas of liquidity. This kind of liquidity can act as a magnet. It doesn't repel price. It can attract price. It's because it's been in there for a while. It's already understood and comprehended. The market knows that it can trade there. The market needs liquidity to trade. If there's no imbalance in that, it understands where it can go to trade. It's always seeking that higher liquidity. Then understand the context of that longer term high liquidity. Is there more or less liquidity around the area? Or do they have the tendency to pull that high liquidity as price nears that area? Let's take a look at the bigger picture here. We have our longer term liquidity. These auction imbalances are the shorter term high liquidity. We can see how it works. We can see how we have an imbalance here in the auction is pressing price up into these areas up here in that longer term liquidity. We can also start to gauge the context of this liquidity. This is pretty insightful data to take a look at here because they're providing high liquidity here on the offer, but they're pulling that liquidity here. Take a point higher here at 67, they're waiting here. We don't go up and test these areas, but maybe they'll pull liquidity here. Buyers will charge up into these areas and then maybe we'll get a rejection and come back down. You can see that they're doing that on both sides here. We have higher liquidity here and then down here as well. We're getting context of that area as well. You can see how these areas define that auction and then you can see the imbalances in the skews and how that affects price within that higher time frame auction. Let's get into more about the auction theory and balance within a range. The value of the asset is determined within a balance of a range. When price goes outside of that range value, that's where if it's too high, usually what occurs is you find responsive sellers. If price goes too low outside of that range, you find responsive buyers. Price will return back into its value range balance. On a candlestick chart, this is a classic auction theory here. Responsive sellers at the top here, responsive buyers down at these areas. You can see a lot of wicks here, buying and selling at the extent of the ranges. In book map or in that historical limit order book, here they are. The willing sellers up here outside of the range, this is the same example we were looking at. These are the responsive sellers and the willing buyers or responsive buyers down here outside of the range. Why does price return back into that range? We'll use a simple analogy here within an auction for basically anything, looking at a computer, a car, a painting, whatever it might be. Let's understand the higher price scenario here in that auction behavior. Well, we're at a higher price, there's less buying. Value is overpriced. People are going to wait for lower prices. That's going to be the behavior normally in this auction. You're going to find more selling. You're going to find profit taking. You're going to find anyone who was holding inventory is going to be distributing it out. They're looking to get a good price for selling at higher areas. What about with lower price? What's the auction behavior there? Well, you find more buying. Value is on sale. What you usually find is inventory accumulation. You'll find buyers and you'll find less selling. People that are already holding that inventory are going to wait for higher prices. In general, this is very in general here, but you will usually see price return back into a statistical average value. For traders, it's fading the outside edges back into value. Let's take a look at a volume profile and we're going to look at the transaction balance within a range. Balanced single distribution of volume. I'm sure a lot of you are very familiar with this and then we're going to look at time and price acceptance within this range. Here's our same chart. Our same example and we can see time and acceptance within this range here, price acceptance. Our higher liquidity here and our responsive sellers up in these areas and the buyers down here. Let's take a look at a volume profile now. Very balanced single distribution of volume. This is your typical bell-shaped profile curve. You can see the majority of the trading takes place right in the middle here. Here's our longer term liquidity channeling between it. Now let's take a look at the profile, the components here. The VWAP, the POC, the high volume node, the low volume node. James is already talking about value area, high value area, low. I'm not going to go into that, James, but that's a statistical, it's a detail on this information here. If you guys want to look at it, you're more than welcome. There's plenty of information on the web about that. Just looking at the simple components here of a volume profile. The low volume node, we're looking at low volume nodes at the edges here. We see there's no selling up in these areas or no buying. There's basically no volume or very little at the edges. Our high volume node and POC is right here in the middle. This is the most traded price here of this range. We also have the VWAP here, and you can see that's this white line here. That's the evaluated average price. The VWAP is different from the high volume node or POC. Just going to look at some skewed volume profiles as well since we're recovering the volume profile. This gives insight to the price action within that range. We're going to talk about B-shaped profiles and P-shaped profiles. In the B-shaped, it's more transactions occurring at lower areas, and then P-shaped, more transactions at higher areas. The insights it can give, well, we have transaction interest in a skewed area. It depends. This is all contextual. Higher time frames make a difference here, but is it going to be trap volume at those lower areas or higher areas, or are you going to see reversal? Or will there be price discovery outside of that range, and then we start to get in a trending environment? It's all contextual within that bigger picture. Here's our skewed, our B-shaped here, almost a double distribution basically, but you can see that there's more volume trading at the lower areas down here. You can see it very clearly here with the volume dots as well. If more transactions are taking place at a lower area, well, maybe you would start to anticipate more trading to the downside and price discovery. If you take also a look at some of the volume and what kind of volume it is, and this is where this matters in that context, as you can see, there's a lot of buying volume down here compared to selling. Maybe some accumulation and then continuation to the upside. But note again, the high liquidity here. We're channeling between areas of high liquidity here on the bid and then here on the offer. Some absorption up into this area as you can see, and some absorption down here as well. Let's take a look at a P-shaped profile. The skewed distribution now is on the upside, and it makes this kind of P-shaped profile. You can take a look at the majority of the volume, so these clusters of volume within the range. You can see again the range here, our higher liquidity is down in some of the lower areas, longer term liquidity, and then you can see it up here on the offer up in some of these areas here and channeling in between those areas. Let's take a look at advanced analysis within the range. The single distribution example, because there's all sorts of things that you can see within this price action, exhaustion, absorption, stop runs, traps, price rejection, return back to value. There's a fractal nature of these markets. We can see patterns within patterns, and then we're going to apply what we learned in lesson one yesterday, some of the order flow examples. Put this all into context, read it, and we can anticipate future price activity. Here's our example, our longer term liquidity. We see our imbalances here with that shorter term liquidity. Let's just take a look here. Our points of exhaustion here, and we see that sweep of the book here to the upside, a complete rejection of this area, price comes right back down into the range, so this is going to be your stop run. Why? Because we already have areas of exhaustion here. It looks like traders might be gearing toward the return back to the mean. Maybe they're starting to position themselves, looking for a return back to that mean, and then you can see that we go up outside of that area and then return right back in. And then the same activity occurs down here. We see our points of exhaustion down here. We have a swing low down here as well. And look how we just tap below that area here, grab the liquidity, and then trade back actually to the other side of where it finds liquidity here on the offer. So again, very, very trappy activity. You would think that looking at this very simple profile here that this is going to be pretty easy fading outside edges and returns back into the norm. This is actually, there's a lot going on, and it can be very tricky to trade. In fact, this higher liquidity as previously noted, you can see how they're pulling here. There's potential here for the buyers to continue on up, but they'll run right into higher liquidity at a higher level. And then if those guys are wrong and we see a lot of selling, responsive sellers return right back down and probably hit the other side of the range. I think what the statistic is, I've heard from many traders, if you get a price that goes outside of the trading range, rejects and comes back into the middle that there is an 80% chance of it returning and testing the other side of that range. And that's exactly what occurred here twice in this example. Here's one example outside, and then the return back down and makes a lower low here. And then look at this example here. We have a lower low, it tests this area, and we come right back up and test the other side and actually make a higher high within the range. And that's just from identifying some of the market mechanics that we were looking at yesterday and starting to apply that within this bigger structural range. But we can also see here the fractal ranges within that larger range. So again, we can start to apply what we learned yesterday with the basic mechanics. We have our stop run or our sweep here, it's rejected, comes back into the middle, but we have a fractal here. We are now accepting at a higher level here outside of this little range here. And you can see that it's starting to, there's time and acceptance in this microstructural range. Well, what occurs here? We have, again, a sweep of the book. We sweep down and we accept below in a new range here, a range within a range. Nice points of exhaustion up here, more selling to the downside. We get that bit of extension here and reject and come right back up and trade outside of this micro range into a new micro range here on the upside. Very trappy environment and a lot of things going on here. All right. So let's now take a look at some imbalance, not balance, but imbalance in the auction theory. And we're going to apply this to a trend. So in imbalance, it's an upset within the balanced auction range environment. Price breaks out of that range. In the breakouts, what you start to see is large initiated buying. Not responsive buying, it's initiated buying. And it redefines value to the upside. On the breakdowns, you have large initiated selling. And it redefines value to the downside. The reevaluation price accepts outside of that original value range. All right, that price discovery, usually we see continuation and price discovery in the move of the initiated buyers or sellers. This reevaluation, it'll repeat. And then you'll have a trend beginning. So like in this example here, that trend never got started. We see the values change here, but we don't see a trending environment. Simple candlestick chart and uptrend. This is where we can find our initiated buyers in this trending environment. Price moves outside of the range. Initiated buyers here at some of these levels, as you can see. And we break outside of the range and we have time and acceptance above it. We actually get a nice retest into a micro range here. And we find again, initiated buying right around this area here that presses price up through this small range here. And now we're in a new range. Again, we find initiated buying here at this area. And we see a nice move to the upside. And there's a lot of structures within structures here. But looking at the bigger picture, this range here, our initiated buying starts to occur in this area here. And we break through up outside of that range, except you can see the pullback to it and then the continuation. What does that look like in book map? We can very clearly identify that initiated buying. It's just very much like a footprint chart. You're going to start to see large volume dots in these areas. This one's a little suspect down here. This is the initial break. But you can see there's some buying here, a pull of liquidity. And then we see a lot of buying start to take here as well. And a pulling price upwards, we can see the acceptance here. We do get our retest. And then look at the initiated buying here, large volume dots. This is what we're looking for. It's going to pull price up outside of this trading range. And that's exactly what it did. Very aggressive move here, up into higher liquidity. And it happens yet again here. More initiated buying, outside of a range, break through, and continuation to the upside. We see it in one more time here, yet again, and break through to the upside. So that's what pulls price up outside of the ranges. And let's start to identify the auction. That longer term liquidity, how is it behaving in some of these areas? Well, we can see that the longer term liquidity, it was initially down here. And then we see this break to the upside. But where's that liquidity? That longer term liquidity is still down here. But this initiated buying here is what we get that pulls us up into that longer term liquidity that's waiting here on the offer. You can very clearly see it. These areas are targets for that reevaluation of price. In that trending environment, you usually don't see liquidity follow to the upside. You might get the shorter term imbalances, and we're going to go through that here. So that shorter term high liquidity, you might see in some of these little areas here that just kind of press this price into maybe excuse that auction a bit to initiate buyers to jump in. We see it all the time, just that shorter term liquidity. It doesn't stay in the book for very long. Just excuse it a little bit and gives it a little bit of a push to the upside. And now we can see how this auction imbalance, how it reacts within the bigger picture here of that longer term liquidity in a trend. So why does price accept a higher in that uptrend? What's the reevaluation of the asset? Usually, the repricing occurs after a geopolitical or economic event. It could be some sort of news or economic data. We see continuation of that bigger trend. That's possible as well. So there's already a bigger picture supply and demand and balance, or it might be very simply that auction and balance and or large initiated buying together. And that alone will allow price to trade and accept above or below a defined range. And let's just apply this understanding within the analogy here that we used before, buying or selling anything, a computer, a car, a painting, whatever it might be. We're at a higher price, for example. There's demand. There's auction demand behavior here. There's buying interest at higher levels. And there's a lack of selling at lower levels. And price revalues at the higher levels. So it's that imbalance here that we're talking about. And let's just take a look here. Probably be easier to explain here by looking at the chart. So we see our initiated buying in balances in some of these areas here. And it pulls price up outside of those areas. And we see buyers here, they look at all of the buying here. That's where the re-evaluation occurs. If this does not auction properly within this area here and you don't really find the buyers to support it, this will be a rejection of that breakout and a return back into value. But this is where the re-evaluation occurs here with an initiated buying and continuation of that buying. And then we have the lack of selling here. Our exhaustive points in a trend. This is very typical. On our retest to the downside, we have higher lows in this environment. We have very few sellers. And we can see that here in the transactions. We have some selling up here. But compared to the big green volume dots here and here as well, this is a lack of selling in reference to these other areas. And this is important. It's seeking re-evaluation price. And where is it going to find it? Well, it's going to find it with the higher liquidity is, that higher liquidity that remains in the book. That's what's revaluing price right now. That's exactly where it's going, is hitting those areas. You can start to understand and drill in to the micro levels to understand what exactly is occurring here. But usually what you get is a lot of absorption up in these areas. And then we trickle back down. We get exhaustion. And then price just charges through. The aggressive sellers or buyers, the buyers in this case, charge right through these areas of high liquidity. They take it all. They sweep the book. So now we're starting to comprehend that sweeping activity outside of ranges and understanding time and acceptance above in a new range. So let's cover the volume profile and the transactions within this uptrend. We have a multiple distribution of volume. There are multiple high volume nodes and low volume nodes. Very typical of that trending environment. Breakout is established out of the range, time and acceptance in that new range and break into a new range. So here is our multiple volume profile in a trend. Very, very typical. See one profile here, another profile, another, another, and another. It is trending higher. And start to extrapolate some of the lessons from yesterday, understanding the sweep of the book, and that you're going to get your low volume and high volume nodes in some of these areas here. Usually where we break from, although we see big initiated buying in some of these areas, compared to the volume in the range, this is your low volume node. So you can see here. It's a little bit higher here in this case. Our low volume node is here, though. And we come right back down to test it. And here's our low volume node, just maybe a tick or two off to the upside here. But you can see that the sweeping activity to the upside and now actually pretty aggressive sweep that our low volume node is a bit higher here, in this case as well. One more here, our low volume node here as well. Breaking outside of that range and establishing that time and acceptance above the previous range. Look at our high volume nodes in some of these areas here as well. And I usually can align that just right in the middle of these ranges, more or less. You can see a P-shaped here. Maybe a little bit of a P-shaped here. But these are pretty nicely distributed. What about the value within a trend? We're going to look at balance within that trending environment. I mean, we originally spoke about it being an imbalance. But there is something to this. That's how you have your trend lines. It gives a structure to that reevaluation process of the asset. Absorption at the higher highs, we have our profit taking. And then exhaustion at the lower highs, followed by more initiated buying. What does that look like here? Well, this is where you get your trend lines and channeling. Your diagonal balance within established trend. And you can see here that really this imbalance here re-establishes that trend. So we were trending upwards. And you can see how nicely it came right back down into some of these areas. But this large amount of buying re-established that trend. And you can see how nicely these work out together. Well, let's get into some advanced analysis of that trend. And high liquidity and large transactions, absorption at the higher highs, low liquidity and fewer transactions, exhaustion at the lower lows. We've been covering that. But let's look also at the strength of the trend. We just looked at that in the diagonal moves. But we're going to look at some measured moves here. And let's jump in here. And let me show you the measured moves. Fractal nature in that trend. We have our measured moves within the pullback. This is exactly 10 ticks here. This is a stronger move and break outside of this range. It's actually 12 ticks. And that repeats again here. And then we have finally one more to the upside here, which is 10 ticks. It's referenced to the one that began that trend, that this trend is starting to wane potentially at this point. It's only a few ticks difference, but they're more or less the same as well. But you're going to see that. And you can relate that to this diagonal balance within that established trend. OK. All right, that's the fractal nature. I kind of jumped ahead here. But all right, the strength of that trend, the measured moves and the stop runs and liquidity grabs. So let's take a look here. In that strong trend, we get our pullback to our low volume node or that last big flurry of volume or activity. So when you have the very strong trend move here, as you can see, we moved very aggressively to the upside. We'll look at the pullback. We didn't even come back. Actually, I think we came very close to the low volume node here. But this is where that initiated bind, yet again, occurred here. So the pullback is meager. The move out of here was very strong. So you won't get a pullback into some of this area down here. And with that strong trending environment, the same occurred here. Very, very strong trending move. The pullbacks are very shallow. Now, in this initial move here, to the upside, though, as well as this last move here, we get a pullback to where we broke from. So pullback to that low volume node here, as well as here. Just basically to the tick. So you can start to understand the strength of these moves and start to anticipate pullbacks. And this is all you can see where we're all going with this. Tomorrow, we're going to put this together into strategies and setups, where we covered the measured moves. But all right, let's go through some of the training exercises here. That's it for part two, understanding the structures and order flow, historical order flow, and transactions and volume profile within this auction process. So next step, go through these microstructures. Apply that auction theory and volume profile concepts to it. And then mark up several examples in the chart. You can use the book map replay mode. If you have book map, it's an excellent way to review all of this data. And study the price movements within these structures. Start with one example. Focus on one chart. Understand the details of that auction and the transaction behavior within that example. And then move on to the next. And note the variations in the next example. You go through this. The more that you're going to start to piece together this environment and then start to anticipate maybe the deepness of the pullback and where initiated buyers might yet again jump in and anticipate maybe continuation here in that trend. All right. And then tomorrow, just a preview here, we're going to get into the practical applications of this information. We're going to go through the context of the auction and the transaction. This is very important. We want to understand not just one white line of high liquidity. We want to understand the context of it historically and how it behaved previously. Or are they adding more in an area? Where are they adding in? Are they adding in, let's say, they're on the offer. Are they lowering the offer with more liquidity? Or are they pulling it and adding it above? This is going to give us a lot of context and a lot of understanding to the anticipated move. And then we're going to put that together with traditional tape reading and where those transactions occur. And then we're going to anticipate that price move with a strategy or a setup. And we're going to cover that tomorrow. All right. OK, let's get to some of these questions. Let's see here. DX is only for stocks. Yes, it is. Guido, I don't know if that'll work for other platforms. We have a deal with DX feed. You can talk to us support about that on the price. OK. Yep, Francisco price will go up and up until it finds that seller. Yeah, exactly. OK, now Francisco went over the initiated buying and selling as well. Well, usually you're going to see kind of a battle at them right in the middle of value. And look at those areas of the POC. And then you'll see that initiated buying or selling. Charging up and gaining momentum out of that area. That's where that re-evaluation, a lot of the times it'll reoccur. And you can see it, Francisco. I mean, that's why I really implore you to take a look at some of these charts, mark them up. And you'll see the behavior here. And I think that focusing on one example and then I think it's going to give you a lot of insight to the anticipated move. Thanks, Mauricio. Maurice, OK. All right. Ken, there is some data that a book map can be fed into. The time and sales data information can go directly into, you can export it into Excel. OK. Siddhar, that also answers your question. SJ, in the midst of a trend, is there a way to anticipate the amount of a pullback example? Yeah. No, I just went over that as well. So those strong moves here, and we're going to get more into that in the setups. But you can see the shallow pullback here. But in this initial move here, this isn't a lot of volume. And because of this initiated buying in these areas up here, you get a much deeper pullback. Now, it's contextual. I mean, what if we run into really high liquidity here? And they're very, very aggressive. And then you see a lot of initiated selling outside of this small range here. Well, then you can anticipate maybe a move back into this range here. But we didn't get that here. Now, you can see that there's not much selling. OK. All right, guys. That ends the lesson two. And let me know if you have any questions. But we will continue on tomorrow with part three. Yeah, you're welcome, Guido. Siddhar, let's see. Any sorts of deals on Bookmap for the month of July? Not that I know of. But reach out to support at bookmap.com. And we can take a look there for you, OK? All right. OK. All right, guys. Yeah, thanks for coming. And we'll call it a day. And we'll catch up tomorrow with part three and look at some of the context of this auction and the transactions, and then start to apply strategies and setups to it, OK? And take advantage of the education that we've already covered for the last two days. All right, thanks for coming. We'll see you tomorrow.

Today we will be discussing the second lecture on charging and discharging of capacitors. In fact, in all the DC accelerators the basic principle of these accelerators is based on charging and discharging of capacitors and therefore it is necessary that we understand this aspect of accelerators very well. Now one of the things which we have to know is that how the capacitors are formed in DC accelerators and the basic equation which governs these DC accelerators is voltage generated on the capacitor V is given by the charge transferred to the capacitor divided by the capacitance value of that capacitor. So V is equal to Q upon C and depending upon the various geometries of the capacitors their values can be calculated. You can see here various geometries used for the capacitors here or the condensers and you can see that first one is the parallel plates, different geometries for example you can have two plates they will also form a capacitor and there will be a certain value of capacitance if that one or it could be a spherical there can be a sphere concentric sphere it can be surrounded by another sphere. So this will also form a capacitor, third one is hemisphere that it is not fully sphere but there is a hemisphere and then it is surrounded by another hemisphere also. In the case of Vandy graph tandem accelerators which you see in a little while from now is that this whole system is enclosed inside a pressure vessel and that acts like a second electrode which is so this becomes like as if it is two plates but they are hemisphere. Another geometry which is possible and which is used for example in the case of tandem accelerators and paletrons is cylindrical so that means there is a high voltage terminal like this and this whole thing is put inside a tank which is a continuous one. So this center portion which is the high voltage terminal acts like a capacitor so these are various geometries which are used and the capacitor values which is capacitance they are different for different geometries. In the case of Coq Coq Walton we are directly using capacitors and those capacitors are charged through diodes they can be charged through resistors also but charging through diodes is the advantages and that you will be in subsequent slides and these are some of the things which we have to understand before going to the accelerators. So now you can see here this first one is a Coq Coq Walton and it is a picture of one million volt Coq Coq Walton at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research which was set up in the late 50s then there is a line diagram of Vendigraph and you can see that the top portion is a high voltage terminal which here is a hemisphere surrounded by a pressure vessel and that pressure vessel is used to increase the increase the dielectric constant of the media so it is filled up with the gas insulating gas so that this high voltage terminal can be raised to higher voltages as I mentioned in the last lecture that in the case of Coq Coq Walton whichever open air type there the maximum voltage which could be raised to was about 1.25 to about 1.5 million volts that was because it was an open air type and there was a corona formation or the breakdown of the voltage because of high gradients and the gas surrounding was at one atmosphere air which has a certain dielectric constant and that is why the voltage was leaking sparking was taking place and we could not go to more than 1.5 million volt in the case of Coq Walton type of accelerators in the case of Vendigraph accelerator the whole thing is enclosed in a pressure vessel which is filled up with the insulating gas a mixture of nitrogen and carbon dioxide but later on a much improved gas like SF6 and that is used to fill up this whole system and as a consequence of that in the case of Vendigraph the voltage could be raised to about 10 million volts our later on there was an improvement and in the accelerator technology and going to the pelatrons where the charging was done using pelated chain and all that and voltage could be could be raised to the terminal to about up to 30 35 million volts the accelerators were designed for 35 million volts that was because the manufacturing accuracies of the terminal and of course the purities of SF6 and removal of sharp points so these are some of the things so you can see here that the first one is 1 million volt Coq Walton second is a line diagram of Vendigraph accelerator then the third one on the upper half is a 2 million volt tandem accelerator this was also modified in the late 90s and early 2000 2 is 6 million volt folded tandem ion accelerator and with a 6 million volt as the terminal so it could be improved and one of the improvement was because of the change of the insulating gas the nitrogen plus carbon dioxide decision was replaced by SF6 gas and of course the improvement in the manufacturing technologies later on then we also had a 14 million volt pelaton accelerator at TFR and this could go even to 15 million volts and these things will be discussed later on in some other lecture so basic principle which is important in the case of DC accelerators is that the voltage is equal to q by c q is the charge transferred to the capacitor having a capacitance value of c and so geometries may be different the capacitance value of the capacitor could be different and they can be calculated very nicely and the kinetic energy which is of gain by seeing the voltage difference of V or a charge state of n and total charge of q is given by q V and where it can be given in MVV the energy if the voltage in million volts and charge is q V is the charge state now this is just a diagram for the comparison purpose and to demonstrate that how important is this equation that is V is equal to q by c so you can see here the first one is a copper Walton and how the charging of the capacitor takes place here second one is a upper half of the radiograph accelerator where only the high voltage terminal is shown and the third one is a two-stage two stages either tandem or the pelaton and the whole column section including the high voltage terminal is shown to be enclosed in a pressure now in all these three cases which are the main accelerators you can see that there is a there is a capacitor formed and geometries you can see in all the three cases are different in the first case they are like parallel plates shown to be parallel plates second case it is a combination of a cylinder up to for example up to this place and then it is a hemisphere third place it is a concentric cylindrical so the capacitance values of these three cases will be different and they can be very nicely and very accurately calculated now so it is important in the dc accelerators to know that how this charging of the capacitors take place and that is the that one has to understand very well as i mentioned earlier the energy gain is q times v and v is the voltage different q is the charge which is equal to n times e here the n is charge state and the kinetic energy will be n times v v is the voltage so this kinetic energy will be in m a v if v is in million volts and is a charge state and e is the unit charge now so i have here involved another parameter which is charge state so let me explain what is the meaning of charge state because that is so suppose we have a oxygen oxygen atom and oxygen atom has eight electrons now if you remove all the eight electrons from the oxygen then it becomes a bare atom and we call it o eight plus that means all all the electrons have been removed and it becomes eight plus positively charged ion now and if you subject this oxygen eight plus to a voltage of two million volts then the kinetic energy will be eight into two is equal to sixteen m v so you can see that in the case of heavy ions the same voltage can lead to much higher energies had it been proton which can have only h one plus the energy could have been only two m e v while for heavy ions where all the electrons can be removed the energy could be much higher and this property of the ions heavy ions has been exploited in the case of tandem and peloton accelerators and that is why there the much higher kinetic energies are possible now i have said that oxygen eight plus means that all the eight electrons have been removed here that is the meaning of epsilon eight blood so it's a positively charged and it is eight plus charge now if you consider me a very simple case of h plus that means hydrogen has only one electron and that only one electron can be removed because it has only one electron that means h plus means the only electron is available with hydrogen atom that has been removed and if we add then you will ask a question that can we add one electron to the hydrogen atom i think yes is it possible and that is what is required in the case of peloton or even tandem accelerator where the initially in the first half of the accelerator the negative ions are injected and accelerated so if you add one electron instead of removing it to the neutral atom then it becomes h minus h minus means that it is the one extra electron has been added to h pattern similarly in the case of oxygen suppose you have oxygen atom and you add one electron you attach one electron extra electron that will be called as a oxygen minus which means one electron extra electron has been added now if you take how the configuration will look like and now in the case of let's say hydrogen which has only one electron so it will be in the first cell which is s cell so it will be configuration or orbital configuration will be one s one because there is only one electron however if you remove that electron then it becomes h plus and the configuration will be one s zero because there is no electron now but if you add one extra electron then it becomes one s two s avatar can have only two electrons so it will so suppose there is heavy ions then you add one more electron then it will go to the next orbital so this is how the orbital configuration in the case of hydrogen will look like now coming back to charging and discharging which is responsible for voltage generation in the case of dc accelerators so all the dc accelerators and i am going to talk about mainly for coctrot valton wendigraf tandem and peloton they are all based on the voltage developed on the i voltage terminal and i voltage terminal is nothing but a like a capacitor and we have to charge so we have to transfer the charge to that capacitor and according to that equation which is given in the bottom v is equal to q by c the voltage will be generated so therefore it is very important that we should know well to calculate the value of capacitance as well as how charging takes place how efficiently charging is done charges transfer to this capacitor these things will define or determine the efficiency of the accelerator so if we take for example one capacitor and keep adding charge to this capacitor is potential will keep rising according to that equation so we can say effectively suppose there is a capacitor and its voltage is about v therefore that means you have transferred q amount of charge to that so you can write that charge q is proportional to the voltage generated on that capacitor this effectively means that the q is equal to c into v then c is nothing but a constant of proportionality and is called capacitance of the capacitor so you will see that the basic equation in all these accelerators is v is equal to q by c that is the basic relation which we have to remember and how accurately we can determine q value q is charged and the calculate the c value the voltage determination will be that much accurate so let me now see that how the charging takes place if you know the all the parameters so let us take a very simple simple circuit which consists of a capacitor c capacitance value of c and there is a resistance of value r and we put a battery with a electromagnetic force epsilon then if you close this close this circuit suppose I put a battery I put a key in between and close that key then the circuit will be closed and the current will start flowing and charge will be collected on the capacitor that means the energy will be stored so it effectively it will look like as if it will look like as so this let's say is resistance and this is a battery and I put a capacitor and I put a key here so as soon as I close this key that means it becomes like this it becomes like this then there is a current flowing now if you if you do that here epsilon is a emf that is electromagnetic force of the voltage source now you can see that in this case of cork trot valton kind of multiplier which is shown above and so first one and the second one are similar only details are given in the second one the voltage is basically a voltage multiplier and it's a circuit where the charging of capacitors takes place in parallel and discharging them in series and that is how the voltage across the across the capacitors are are generated and if you if you connect a accelerating tube accelerating tube is basically a set of electrodes where the gradient is formed and that can be used for acceleration of the charge particles here you can see that I have used instead of resistance we have used here the diodes and there is a reason for that because diode has a property that in one direction in one direction the diode you can see I'll explain diode normally in the beginning it was it was always shown like this that there is a electrode here and there is a cathode so there is a current passing through this so this was earlier was a diode circuit diode element but now this was when the vacuum tube was used but today the diode is shown like this which is a solid state device pn or now this has a property that if this is positive and this side is negative that means you have a you connect the battery like this then there will be awkward there will be resistance here then it will start current will start flowing in this one if it is positive now in this configuration if this is positive and this is negative so that means when this is positive and this is negative it is called forward that forward bias and in forward wise there will be current passing through that now the if suppose I reverse it that means either I make it negative and positive here that means in that case this will become negative and this will become positive then there will not be any current flowing in this circuit and that time it will be called reverse wise and this property is reverse bias and this property is very effectively used in generating the voltage in the case of cockroach valton type of accelerator now you can see here that in this if you see the complete circuit this is one unit and in the cockroach valton kind of thing you can have several units for example here two units are shown that a one unit means two capacitors and two diodes they form the one so here you can see that we are having four capacitors and four diodes so there are two units in this case also in this case you can see there are two diodes and two capacitors so it is a one unit it is a multiplier and when there is a here the transformer here which gives the voltage at the output which is V sin omega t let us say sinusoidal wave is given and like this okay so you can see that when this is positive then this will not conduct it will be in reverse bias but let's say this is negative and this is positive although it is grounded but so when this is negative and this is positive that means it is ground so this is negative then this diode will be in forward direction and there will be current flowing in this circuit so as a consequence of that it will be forward biased and there will be charging taking place of this capacitor and the voltage will be generated across this capacitor to a maximum of this sinusoidal wave that means if it is V sin omega t then V will be generated now in the in the reverse direction that means when the sinusoidal wave goes to the negative cycle then this will not be conducting because then this will be negative and this will be positive so this will not be conducting but in the first half negative half is already the voltage across this first capacitor is generated to a maximum value of V now when we go to the other half that means this is positive and this is negative this will not conduct so there will not be any current in this one but this will have this diode will start conducting so that means this is negative and this is positive so this will conduct and then this will be charged to 2v because this is one this is already charged to V and there will be addition of V sin omega sin omega t and the peak value is V so this second one is charged to 2v so this is how it is generated same thing you can see here that when this is ground and this is negative here then the charging of this capacitor will take place through this circuit that is nicely explained in another transparency also and when reverse takes place then this will charge through this capacitor so this will be charged twice so you can see that if you if you have n number of stages and each stage minded is having two capacitors and two diodes so if suppose you are having n number of units n number of stages and then the total voltage at the output here on the top will be two times n into V n is the number of stages but if when it is connected to a accelerating cube there will always be a current flowing this so the total voltage will be slightly reduced due to loading in the ion current which is passing through the accelerating cube.


People tend to only measure progress by the scale if the scale isn't moving. They're not progressing thus They're ignoring all of the other changes that are happening in their bodies like better mood better libido Better energy better sleep less joint pain like these are all signs of awesome progress that we tend to ignore Because all we do is pay attention to the scale so then because the scales not moving This isn't worth it I'm not gonna do it anymore pay attention to everything and you'll find that you're actually progressing not always gonna be on The scale but you're gonna be progressing in some very meaningful way Yeah, it's much like any of these new habits You got to build these like positive associations with it for you to really see all the benefits of it You're just looking at that one metrics. You're gonna get frustrated. You're gonna get discouraged It's gonna demotivate you whereas you build up all these other Accounts for different metrics of like what's going positively my strengths increasing I'm able to do more push-ups than I did before I'm outside more often. I'm getting fresh air I'm getting good sleep all of these things contribute towards your goal


If you don't get new clients, you will fail. Keep watching this video to figure out five ways to gain clients for any insurance business. Okay, I'm Cody Askins. I started when I was 19 as an intern, made 117K in my first eight months. I used several of these ways that I'm going to share with you, and I'm sharing with you right now. So don't go anywhere. The very first one to just jump right in on how to gain clients is face to face networking. Okay. There's several other ways. I believe that every way is actually going to get better the longer in the video that you stay. And it may have a special deal at the end of the video if you watch the entire video. So we'll stay tuned and wait for that. Okay. So face to face networking. What I'm talking about is there are a lot of local things that you can do that you can help. Okay. So like for instance, a lot of PNC agencies will network with car lots or take by popcorn or whatever so that they refer them business. All right. There's chambers. You can create your own networking group. My father created his own networking group a few years ago. He gets referrals weekly because of that specific group and the networking that takes part in that. Okay. Even if they're not looking for coverage just beginning out in networking and meeting with people. Let's other people know that it lets me know that you're serious about this business. Okay. And that you will be here a very long time.  I'm not part of the 92%. I'm part of the 8%. And face to face networking is a great way to get brand recognition, to meet people, to network with people. Okay. Coach Burke talking about right now about a top 25, you need a top 25 that you can network with in your market across the country or whatever. And face to face networking even though old fashioned can still work. So don't forget about the opportunities that come from actually getting out and face to face networking. Okay. The second one. Second one is cold calling. Now you can use this. You could say that we're talking about cold calling in door knocking. Okay. You could say cold calling as in actually making calls. You could talk about consumers. You could talk about businesses going B2B, okay. Or B2C. That's a way that a lot of insurance agents have built their agencies, their companies, their brands. When I was a brand new agent, okay, I used to bring over three to five college kids over to my office every Monday night. We would call from about 530 to 830, about three hours every Monday night and we would cold call for life insurance. And I would walk out of there with 8, 12, 16, sometimes even 20 appointments in my whole week was booked up because I was leveraging cold calling to gain clients. Now I bet 50, 60% didn't keep the appointment, but that's besides the point. It was activity. I was trying to gain clients. I was doing it in a creative approach without spending a much of money. Okay. There's a lot of different ways to succeed and cold calling, even though also old-fashioned can still work. You could say, well, you know what? I'm going to also call aged leads, all right? If they're a couple of years old, that thing is probably a freaking cold call. Right now, I'm going to treat it like a new lead. That's what I do with a script. Okay. However, doing that can still benefit you because the whole goal is to gain clients, typically activity and getting in front of people is what actually gains you clients. All right. Number three is current client referrals. What are some creative things that you can do in your business with your clients to get more referrals? Is it events? Is it marketing? Is it networking? Is it spending time with them? What does that look like in your business? Could you do, for instance, here in Springfield, Missouri, I know some agents that just put on a massive client appreciation event. Okay. I believe it was pro thing. Bass Pro down the road. Okay. And they had like 400 clients show up. Do you think they're going to get referrals from that? Do you think they're going to get repeat business from that? Do you think they're going to have a good retention rate with their client base because of that? Okay. So I want you to think outside the box for a second. Are you sending your clients? For instance, are you sending them a birthday card? And I'm not saying a birthday card that says, Hey, happy birthday. Thanks for your business. That's old school.  It's selfish. Right? I'm saying, Hey, happy birthday, Betty. Back in 1942 when you were born, you could buy a Coke for five cents. Today it may cost you a dollar. So have a Coke on me and throw a dollar bill in the freaking envelope or the freaking card and say, Hey, happy birthday. Don't mention your business, right? You can drop a business card in there if you want, but it isn't about that. It's about them focused, not you focused, right? Okay. So that's one way. Also, I used to send, I used to send newsletters every single month. Okay. It was a physical newsletter. It was probably about this size, right? And I would have, I would have recipes. I would have new updates. I would do trivia where if you call and you get a gift card, if you refer somebody, you know, I may give you something, right? I would release a new product. I would talk about, I would show a picture of me and my wife, maybe, you know, or our dog or whatever, right? And it would be a way for me to create this relationship with them, this custom bond of I'm not going to leave this dude because he's stepping outside the box and he's here and he's relevant and he's in front of me and he's serious. Okay. So I would send out monthly newsletter. I'll get to where I was sending out five or 600 of those handwriting them every freaking month. Okay. And when you're, when you're, when they're first doing business with you, are you sending them a thank you card? Okay. And get creative with the thank you card.  So get creative with that. Are you asking for referrals? Are you doing events? Right? Most of your clients, suppose there's a statistic out there that says that every one of your clients is worth five to six referrals and you don't even know it. Okay. If that's true, are we actually asking for referrals? Okay. So that's another one. Okay. Client referrals. Do more 20, 20 and beyond. Okay. Online marketing. What are you doing? Online marketing wise. Okay. We're, we're, we're doing our best to build a brand and help agents and, and get attention in the marketplace. What are you doing in your local market to get attention? Okay. Are you doing some online marketing?  Are you building, do you have a website? Are you present online? Do you have a website? Okay. And, and some of this is going to be like super elementary, but the average age of an interest age is 59 and a half and most don't have this stuff. Okay. Website. Do you have a Facebook page? Do you have a LinkedIn? Do you have an Instagram? Okay. Do you have a YouTube where your clients are putting up testimonials?  Do it yourself. Go to Google right now. Search yourself. Search your name. What would they find? Does it create a good first impression? A bad first impression?  I don't know. Right? The, at the end of the day, you need to be present online. Our world is shifting that way. You need to be present online. Online marketing is a great way to be present online.  Okay. The, the, what, what does, what does Cardone say? If I don't know you, I can't flow you. Okay. Online marketing is a good way to do that. The fifth way. Okay. Is you need, you can buy leads, right? If you don't get enough from networking, cold calling, referrals, marketing, et cetera, you can actually buy leads from someone. Okay. If you mention that Cody mentioned buying leads on that video from January the eighth of 2020. Okay. Deal. How big of a deal should we do? Maybe five bucks off the regular price per lead.  All right. Five bucks off. If you actually call in and take advantage right away, what we'll do is we'll do it, you know what? We may cap it once we get to about probably 40 people or so, which I could see happening pretty quick. But you know what? Call in. Try that.<PHONE_NUMBER>. All right. So who are you buying leads from? How you could gain clients every single week? The top most successful agents in our industry are doing this weekly. I know an insurance agent right now that I just spoke to recently that I'm coaching that's spending $1,000 to $2,000 per week on leads. And when you buy leads, quick complain they don't work and just remember that maybe you don't work. Okay. And it may not always be the leads. And typically it isn't. A lead is only as valuable as the hands that they're put in. Okay. So when someone puts leads in your hands, how valuable are they? All right. So remember that when you're going out and you're looking at gaining clients, none of this matters. None of this matters if you don't actually sit down with people every single week. You're looking to help people. You have to, only reason I was successful, if you're a new agent and you're watching, the only reason I was successful my very first year is in an insurance business. As I said, I'm going to sit down with 10 people every single week. And if I do that, I'll be successful. So I did whatever it took, cold door knocking, cold calling, leads, warm market, et cetera, et cetera. I did whatever it took to get in front of people. And I always sat with 10. And when I sat with 10, I made a couple grand a week whoop-de-doo. I didn't even know how to spell insurance. I wasn't good at sales. I had no experience, et cetera. The whole goal to gain clients is to get in front of people. All right. Let's see if you know them. There are seven big time prospecting mistakes that you are probably making when you're trying to prospect with prospects and I'm going to cover them right now in depth. I promise you want to say to the end, okay, because I may have a special bonus for you at the end of the video. The number one, and I'm going to touch on these and I'm going to go through them in depth, right? They want to know everything. The organization, redo, low energy, won't invest, procrastinate, and they want to change it, right? What do those mean to you? And how can you avoid those? Because I'm telling you, if you can eliminate these seven, you will absolutely have better prospecting habits and things happen. If you think about this, if you get one extra deal, because 92% of agents fail, if you get one extra deal per week, simply by not making mistakes, that's pretty easy, right? That's an extra 50 deals, let's just say that you average $500 per sell, you just made an extra $25,000 in one year, simply by, and maybe more, right? I'm keeping it simple and low, and maybe you won't end up a statistic at a 92% or because guess what? You just made an extra 25 grand, and that's on the low end, right? So the first one, every insurance agent, they feel like they got to know everything and if you're this way, I need you to fix it, okay? They want to know everything before they do anything. That's a massive flaw that insurance agents have, is before I prospect, before I pick up the phone, it's a mistake, right? Before I pick it up, dude, I got to know everything, I got to read it all, I got to know everything, okay, this, I don't know it all yet, I can't make a call, you know? It's like, dude, that's not okay. You will never know everything. The sooner that you can understand that, the better, the more adaptive and flexible and coachable you are and the fact that you can realize that I'm never going to know everything. Like when it comes to insurance, I don't know everything. There's times where people see all my videos that I don't know everything, right? But I know how to make money and how to survive in the industry. And this is a big one. You want to get to where you don't have to know everything to be successful, right? That's a big one, big flaw most insurance agents think, dude, I have to know everything. I'm talking everything, the whole encyclopedia of the industry, impossible.  Hey, the second one, I feel like I need to get organized. Let me get my desk organized. Let me get everything in the perfect spot. Okay, is that ready? Will that do well when I make calls? Now I need to rearrange it again. It's like, dude, it's like I'm getting ready to get ready. I'm not organized yet. You know, my script's not in the right. It's in that spot. Water needs to be there. Okay, maybe I'm good, right? And they're like, look for reasons not to work. They look for reasons not to pick up the phone, right? I'm getting ready to get ready. You will never be ready if that's the case. You'll never be probably ready. Just pick up the phone and start dialing, right? Start prospecting. Big mistake. I feel like I need to get organized. Everything in the right spot, okay? Hopefully that's not you. If it is, I warned you, okay? Because again, I want you to be a part of the 8%, not the 92, organized. Who cares? Doesn't matter, okay? The next one is when their sales manager gives them a script. They want to redo everything, the whole system. Okay, he says I need to make 82 calls. I think if I make 28, it still has an eight and a two. I think it'll be fine, you know? Or hey, I've got this great script. They've been using it for 37 years and it works. I don't use that word. Let me take that out. Oh, let me put this word in. Let me spend two hours, because I had somebody do this in my office one time. I give them the script, follow this, do this. I'm coachable, Cody, I'm coachable. Listen, I'm ready. I promise I'll do what you say. I give them the script. I tell them what to do and guess what? They're over there retyping out the script and changing everything. Before they pick up the phone. If one of your agents are doing this, they will never survive. Get rid of them. If you're doing it yourself, man, I hope that you'll cut this out. Because again, because you're not coachable, if you won't listen and do what someone says, when they say, do this. And then they want to redo everything because their way is better. They've been in the industry for five minutes and their way is better than yours, right? Man, that one's just annoying, okay? The fourth one, low energy, right? Negative, whiny, complain a lot. They come in and they're like, you know, I don't know if I got it today. And I followed my wife and they bring on this drama to the office, you know? And couldn't sleep.  And my kid puked on me and, you know, the pool's leaking.   This probably won't be a good month because I had a good month last month. So probably won't have a good one this month. And I was like, what does that even mean? Like, if you had a good one this last month, you'd rather have a better chance of having a good one this month just because, right?   Like, they get on the call and they're like, before they know it, they're like, man, I'm gonna take that energy, that freaking sucky energy into this call. And before I know it, I'm gonna have a freaking bad call after bad call after bad call because I can't get my energy right. That's why I make my team twice a day. We do jumping jacks, push-ups, whatever.  We are not letting the morning affect the afternoon and the afternoon affect the next morning and et cetera. Or whatever happened before work. My dude, you walk through those doors, you change. You are ready to go. You're freaking, you're in a great mood. Check yourself at the door, right? That's what they say, okay? So low energy, that's a bad one.  I'm draining people. You're draining me through the video camera right now. We gotta cut that out. We have to absolutely cut that out. That's why I love conferences. That's why I love the CA Cell System because it allows you and your team to plug into positive content every single day to keep you from felling, okay? To keep you from felling specifically. Low energy, nobody likes bad energy, man. Don't do it, okay? Don't do it.  Next one, number five, won't invest any money in themselves, you know? Or when they do, if this doesn't work, I'm never investing again. Like dude, I've got $12 for leads, you know? $12. Or, you know, I spent $36 on that cold call list. I didn't set one appointment. That list vendor, they're garbage, man. They're horrible. Or I'm not gonna put any money into this, Cody, until it gives me money in return. It's never gonna give you any money until you give it some, right? You gotta put some gas in the freaking tank sometimes. You gotta fuel this rocket ship that you're on. The insurance industry is the number one career on planet Earth. It ain't the sexiest. You don't line up a career day begging to get in the industry, but 92% of insurance agents fail because it's the most difficult and there's more millionaires in it because it's freaking incredible, man. It's the absolute, I'm obsessed with it. It's an amazing career, but you have to invest into it. What does that mean? That means that we look at this like it's a business. You have a business opportunity right now. And the last thing you wanna do is screw it up, right? I heard a statistic the other day that less than 4% of businesses in the country earn seven figures. Less than 4% of all businesses in the US earn a million dollars a year. But there are more millionaires in this industry, than any other industry in the world. If it's so tough, if most businesses fail within the first couple of years, and if it's so tough to make a million bucks, but it's the number one career to do it is insurance, then you're in the right vehicle. And so remember, you've got to invest before it'll invest back.  This is reality, okay? This is reality. I'm gonna keep it real. I'm gonna be honest with you. I don't have to procrastination. A lot of agents love to procrastinate. They're like, dude, I'm ready, I'm excited. I'm gonna make a ton of money. This is gonna be unbelievable. I'm gonna start tomorrow. I love it when I talk to people and they're like, man, I'm getting on this new workout plan. I'm gonna get fit. I'm getting ready. I'm starting next week. What's wrong with starting now? What's wrong with starting tonight? You know? Like I'm doing this, I just did a half marathon and I set it up in a week and didn't train, right? Because you don't need to. Yeah, should you? Yeah, probably, but it doesn't mean that this should keep you from doing stuff, man. Like if you making calls right now is gonna help you to be more successful than making the calls tomorrow or next week than make them now. There's nothing that you want to do in the future that you can't do now, right? Most people want to naturally procrastinate. Like dude, I'm gonna work so hard next week is my week. I'm gonna get it. You know, dude, this week can be your week.  Procrastination drives me absolutely insane. It's a weak mindset. It's a habit.  Do it now. Don't do it later. Okay, if you can do it later, you can do it now. Change it, right? Most people are like, they get into it and they want to change the system. Okay, they're like, okay, this works. This is a system. Like, okay, Cody, I made $4,800 last week was great. Now, how do I do the same thing? How do I make the same amount of money if not more without having to work as hard? They're like, Cody, I wanna make the same amount of money but I wanna make no calls and I wanna work half as much. It's freaking impossible. What are you talking about? You know, that's insane. They wanna change the successful system that's worked for them and others and so many others in the past and they wanna change it all up and because they know that they've been in the industry 42 seconds and they know what's best, right? They know what's best. If it works, don't change it.   You know, don't redo it, trust it. Keep your energy up all the time, stay positive. Invest, don't do it later, do it now and don't try to change that. Just do stuff. All right, if you think these seven mistakes are good, you're gonna love the last video. How to present four insurance products at once in a bundle. It's right there, see you in there. Hey, who doesn't wanna sell four insurance products at once, right? You're thinking, dude, I'm selling one policy. Why don't I just sell four right now?
