Hello and welcome back to the craft box. My name is Brent and today we are on episode 96 of the completionist craft this series today We are in a crocodile talking to will it young it's been a long time since I've done this and today We are crafting the tapestry to the balance school, which is cool. I thought we should start with tapestries I don't have everything, but that's because it's kind of like a two-in-one episode But yeah, we need a dagger of absolution as always everything you need is on screen. Just that I should mention that But yes, we need a dagger of absolution first, which we're going to create really quickly This is for this was used in one of the crafting things. I think the first Crafting quest that she gives or will young gives. I can't remember if it's he or she Is for this here recipe. So one of these two sapphire for black black coal Mistwood cat tails really simple these two you can get the sapphire and the coal you can get from reagent vendors Mistwood is everywhere cat tails again really really easy So yeah, we just need one of those which is dope and we can head over to the housing crafting station and Craft up the tapestry to The school of balance which needs 19 elemental blade TC's which you can get from I believe the Crocatopia library, but you can also go to the bizarre and there's generally a whole bunch of them Mainstream decoys five of those days are very very easy to get balance rank one Super-duper easy. Just yeah, you'll get them really well Well, if you're going for other tapestries in the area, you'll get them pretty easily Dagger of absolution one We've obviously just craft that so you know how to do that citron you can get from any reagent vendor 30 of them quite a bit Mistwood 60 again quite a lot these tapestries are very involved. I have a video on mistwood I recommend farming in molly bone for that acorn again You can get that from mistwood through transmute and frost flower. I have a video on that. I recommend grizzle home And yeah, let's create that boy where boy noise tapestry to balance school.  It looks pretty cool. I can tell you that already Yeah, we are we are gonna place it in here here that is tapestry to the school of balance Very balancey and if you press X by it you can go straight to Alhazred Right here in the balance school, which is pretty cool. Um, so yeah, this is where it takes you amazing Um, but yeah, that is all I have time for today Thank you for watching remember to leave a like and subscribe for a subscribe press the with the balls You know exactly when I post another video and remember to craft outside the box


Okay. Do you hear me? No. Merci aux organisateurs. The past two years, in northern half of France, a team of in-rep researchers is carrying out an inventory of textile furniture from a typological or chronological perspective. My personal work is complementary. My purpose is to help understand the contextual data related to textile craftmanship. My interest in the spindle world on loom weights led me to work on the time of the representation of this craft in the Photo-Historic Society. That is, how to testify to your belonging to textile universe by wearing a specific set or how this universe is described in the graphic image of Photo-Historic. My aim today is to convince you that there is a close link between the human impendance and textile production. I will illustrate these hypotheses with two examples. So, the first concerns a range of ornaments that can be described as looms. The most obvious models come from Italy and serve as a starting point for this work. In this case, this is the case of Carnavaggio di Opino, which seems to indicate the desire to represent textile craftsmen on clothes. On this slide, the same color code is used to describe the loom with blue for the warp beam bar on the second bar. The green for the woven work, the orange for weights. At the bottom, the same color code is adapted to the object and terminology of parts constituting them, the hook, the intermediate pieces, the chains or other connecting system, a possible additional bar on the pendants. By analogy with Italian furniture, the same hypothesis can be made for similar sets of furniture. We have chosen to consider all those with pendants. These pendants are identified in various categories of objects, which are themselves separated into two political classes. There is a parallel between the disc-shaped weight of Central Europe and of Mediterranean. Similarly, the Alstatian pyramidal weights, which find their equivalence in contemporary ornaments. One is represented flat and made of metal. The other being made in volume and in clay. The hypothesis I propose is that the articulated belts of the continental final bronze age match the same kind of representation. In France, the typology of loom weights is parallel to the same hypothesis in the case of belts. Cylindrical weights are replaced by peripheral weights with soft edges. Then pyramidal and more angular and finally triangular shapes could trace an evolution of objects or associated techniques. The general design of the belts can evoke the weaver's work through the weaving of the metal elements. The end decoration can represent an evocation of a narrow loom that can be used to make borders decorated on either side of a wide loom. Many belts have this element at both ends, which could refer to the weaving of the strips. In my opinion, it is an additional argument in favor of this interpretation in relation to weaving. Other older forms are identified with the earthy form ornaments of the beginning of the final bronze age. The same type of hypothesis can be considered to interpret the French and German examples so-called earthy form ornaments from La Colobine, La Solzotte or Karlsruhe. This object incorporates in their design an idea comparable to that of the Fieblers or belts mentioned before. Due to their dating, this object could constitute older forms of weaver's craft pendant. The small group of bronzes considered here at first sight a group of heterogeneous artefacts, but it is surprising to recognize many common characters. These are metal parts, the particularity of which is to be used to connect several parts of a complex set. We can assume a common origin of these different parts from the same matrix, whose general aspect is characterized by an open work treatment, a simple complex or sometimes closed and reduced to a simple geometrically shaped plate. This rigid support has a simple binding function in the assembly of complex sets. The general design is summarized here in the form of a diagram. The some typical composition sometimes incorporates in its shape the motif of a solar boat, a sun boat. Or a simple geometric shape that is more difficult to interpret, whether or not loaded by an ideology, it is this piece that supports the loom like a warm beam bar. At the base of the object, a larger number of rings are distributed over the entire white. In this lower part, there are sometimes other arrangements such as simple voids or openings used at a point of attachment to a series of chains. Roads or braiding of metal wires, which symbolically reproduce the wooden structure stretched by the weights. The second example of an arrangement concerned pins. I hypothesize the existence of a link between the spindle walls on some pins in the middle and final bronze age. The hypothesis would be that we are trying to represent in the finery this tool used for spinning. The conical shape of the head suggests a similar shape between these two categorized tools. The presence on the pins of a belly that can imitate the bobbins of trade on the spindle. On other pins, such as the Picardie pin, it is possible to recognize a pattern comparable to those woven. The hypothesis is to recognize the representation of the work product and therefore a symbolic association between the pin and the spindle. It should be noted that other forms do not seem to work in this interpretation. There is an example of vasiform head. It means like vessel. This ad led to an interest in other form of pins, first with a form of disappointment in the Alftone results, but not so long. This is a lively debate among Italian researchers about spindle walls on vessels. Giovanni Leonardo Fuscioli in Forma di Vaso. It shows strong formal links between spindle walls in red and vessels in blue. Quickly comparable profiles can be highlighted with an example one, a position of digital decor or in example four, the figuration of horns. In example two, above right, another high profile with a narrow opening and regular decorative bounds. A dish decorated in example three, other details such as presence of overfoot in six. A very simple question naturally emerged, is this hypothesis valid for the collection of the bronze edge in northern France? The complete copies found in excavation are often in little worm, but comparison is possible. Some characteristics can be observed such as the presence of digitized decoration on the shoulder or in median parts. The profile of the conical spindle wall, their decoration on the slightly received edge seems to us very similar to the clothes with digitized decoration. This set can be compared to horns well present in a final regional bronze. The specimen of spindle wall stone here on the right is dug as if they want to represent the inside of the vessel. This is not real or untier, that may correspond to its use. In the end, this first test on the regional collection seems relevant to us and seems to cover a good part of the categories of non-vessels, bowl or boats. On the left, a slightly provocative image for those interested in object technology. This is an example from the beginning of the Latin in Picardie. In my opinion, the perfect image of a situla. On the right, what is the link between the three objects? In my opinion, it is necessary to study each type of thing to verify the continuity between these objects. Is it just the same fashion at the moment? It could be explained with the way of considering materials at a particular time in the same area. More surely, it is the sign of an underlying concept. For example, these two proposals concerning ornaments may be merged into one. The vessels can symbolically provide a life trade. In this example of vortuvancian meteorutes presented here, like they were discovered in the beginning of the 20th century, the tube could constitute a form of amalgam between the threads and the weights in the basal part. The methods of representation of the same idea can be very different from one region to another. So to conclude, it is a summary of this idea. There are more to study about vessels which represent lume. We find many in hostile culture on some abstract versions in the west of Europe. I have no time to discuss this specific topic here. So few points that I want to bring to the community of specialists in textile studies. For the European region under consideration, this phenomenon is in my opinion a massive phenomenon. This observation does not mean that each region has a similar history or custom on habits. However, the similarity may reflect a common origin or aspiration. It may be a current of fact or trend, but these points are very difficult to verify. In some specific cases, they reflect really contact that show that the elites meet from region to region. They reveal also that certain regions are influential through the diffusion of the form they generate. These sets are the expression of a relative plurality of form within this religious framework which offers a common matrix. It is also a form of mimicry that reminds us of the Cousin Wood of prestigious objects in Europe and beyond. Almost in a female version, this object evokes such as shallots, sword on children, a cauldron, that is often mentioned. Something like must have. Thanks for listening.


Well, welcome to a new week and another episode of VG News. We got four big stories. We're gonna be going over a few today on this wonderful day of, well, April 8th, 2024. And the funny thing is, well, we're on our road to 150,000 subscribers and I would appreciate if you would subscribe to the channel. The first story we're gonna start out with is one that's gonna make us remember today specifically in infamy because today is the day that Nintendo is shutting down online services for the Wii U and the Nintendo 3DS. Oh, man. This isn't really how we'd like to start our week, but you know what, Nintendo? We got you. Thanks for the biggest story of the day about something that nobody wants to happen in the first place. Let's dive in to this here. So going through some stuff today, there's actually many games that are only gonna be playable through questionable emulation means. We mean questionable, we're talking about those legally gray areas. Some examples include Mario Kart 8's original online multiplayer mode that was only available still on Wii U. You, Mario Kart 7, of course, 3DS only, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS, Wii Sports Club, Super Mario Maker, Animal Crossing, New Leaf, and Splatoon 1, among many other games, of course. These are just some of the most notable ones that will no longer be able to be played at all, really, on a Wii U or 3DS. When I say at all, it's a bit of a hyperbolic statement. You can still obviously play the games, but losing the online functionality, fundamentally, changes what you can do with them. Like Splatoon 1, look, there's only so much in single player you can do. The game was really about multiplayer. We won't be able to do that anymore. Now, as sad as it seems that these services are being shut down, or not seems are being shut down, what's worse is actually being reminded of the current state of the video game industry. We have technically never owned our games in terms of just legally gray, mumbo-jumbo terms of service, gobbledygook that none of us ever read. But despite this, we've never really had to worry about losing access to our games as Nintendo fans until this Wii U and 3DS online server shut down. Now, the biggest reasons for that being, well, hey, Nintendo kind of had a really crappy online service and online functionality. In the first place all these years, other platforms have had to worry about this for a while. The funny thing is, Sony was even gonna shut down the PlayStation 3 servers all the way back in 2021, but the fan backlash was so humongous against doing that that you could still access all those online services to this very day. Unfortunately, this didn't really happen with Nintendo.  They stopped letting you buy games as well. So Nintendo's been kind of slowly shutting down these services, and the Wii U is Nintendo's least successful mainstream platform, same mainstream, we all know that the virtual boy exists. And we also have to talk about how 3DS, despite its popularity, is actually the least popular Nintendo handheld ever made. So you combine those two together, and you can kind of see where maybe there just isn't a lot of people still rocking it, which for Wii U, that never really was that many people rocking it. So the backlash isn't gonna be as large as it is for 80 plus million PlayStation 3 potential owners out there, so I understand that. Also, online functionality was still not even the core or center point behind both of these platforms. I mean, we talked about a handful of games where it was like PlayStation get to argue like half the damn library might not work without online access. So I kind of understand where the backlash was a bit harder for PlayStation than Nintendo, but this does get us into a grander conversation around the Nintendo Switch, because see, someday they're gonna wanna try to shut down the servers on this system, and not only do we have a paid online service that literally has games like the entire NES N64, Genesis, Accenture Libraries stuck behind it, you also have a lot more online games from Nintendo in general this generation, let alone third party games and indie titles. So this is one of those things where it might not seem like a huge deal at the moment for Wii U and 3DS, although it's very sad. This still talks about game access moving forward in this modern age where things are increasingly more online and online and going digital only. And we're getting to this point where people are just kind of realizing, especially in the Nintendo universe that hey, we are probably gonna survive this one and be okay, but when they try to do this again in like a decade to the Nintendo Switch, I don't know that it's gonna be quite as easy, or maybe by then it won't matter because the world's come to an end. God forbid that happens. All right, we are gonna do this next story because it also deals with the future of the industry in a little bit. But this time coming from Xbox. And we're talking about Xbox president, Sarah Bond. Not to be confused with CEO of Microsoft Gaming, Phil Spencer, yes, they're both super high positions, but like Phil used to be head of Xbox, he's now in a position higher than that and now manages all of Microsoft Gaming, which includes their PC side and everything. Of course, then again, Microsoft is a PC company. So whatever, anyways, we also know that he's also a member of the actual overall board at Microsoft. So he's a pretty high up and he still has a lot to say, more say than Sarah Bond. But Sarah Bond probably manages more of the day-to-day stuff with Xbox. And what's really funny about this is she had to talk about some stuff over the weekend that she probably didn't mean to. I don't know, we don't know if this was intentionally leaked but an internal email from Sarah Bond got leaked over the weekend that talked about game preservation and their plans for the future. And yes, they were reached out to to comment on this and well, they didn't leave a comment. They really just said they confirmed that this is a real email. So Microsoft has confirmed this is a legit leak. And that's fine, probably because everything in this, it looks positive for Microsoft and Microsoft could use all the positive news they could at the moment. So let's get into all this because Windows Central is the one who obtained the letter and it was sent by Sarah to Xbox team members. Now, Xbox fans probably want to hear a lot of the stuff that this has to say but also maybe not exactly the thing that they want to hear. Now, what is that thing exactly? Well, Microsoft is clearly been toying around with providing a large swath of their games to PlayStation 5, Switch and even Nintendo's next platform. And this has led to several Xbox loyalists being extremely mad and this letter doesn't address any of that. It's kind of weird in hindsight, of course, when you think about it because the reason such moves are being made is due to how small the Xbox community is and I'm sorry, we're not trying to insult you. These are just like facts, okay? Well, Nintendo has certainly had failures like the 3DS, Wii U, GameCube and others. They have always bounced back from those low sales with something more significant. Xbox, unfortunately, has never been able to really recapture that magic of the 80 million plus sales they had with the Xbox 360. I mean, these are just facts, guys. I'm not trying to insult Xbox community. I'm a part of the Xbox community. I know it says Nintendo Prime but I literally have an Xbox Series S just off camera and Xbox Series X over there hooked up to my TV. I'm just as much a part of this community as the rest of you. So I've been supporting with my wallet. I just don't really know what you could say when there aren't that many others. I mean, look, Nintendo Switch is in its eighth year and still outselling the Xbox Series. It's kind of crazy if you think about that. So just put in some context. Anyways, let's get into what Sarah Bond had to say in a leaked letter about the future of Xbox consoles because again, this is something that you might be really interested in. It's been nearly six months since we came together as an organization. She's just talking about her role in the organization. Our collective achievements in that timeframe are tremendous. Everyone should feel incredibly proud of what we've achieved and excited about the opportunities ahead. We are moving full speed ahead with our next generation hardware focused on delivering the biggest technological leap ever in a generation, which is an extremely bold claim. There's been some pretty big technological leaps in certain generations. So very curious what they're gonna do there and what are they gonna charge for it? They've also been like rumors rolling around handheld. So is that gonna be part of this? Is it gonna be a handheld console thing? Are they gonna cross barrier or something to go into what Nintendo did? I don't know, there's a lot that we could dive into with this, but she did then go into maybe something you do care about, game preservation. I think all gamers care about that. Here's what she had to say on that front. We have formed a new team dedicated to game preservation important to all of us at Xbox and the industry itself. We are building on our strong history of delivering backwards compatibility to our players and we remain committed to bringing forward the amazing library of Xbox games for future generation of players to enjoy. Now, the Xbox Series X is actually one of the best backwards compatibility capable machines, takes physical disks, in fact takes physical disks from the original Xbox era. Now not every single game, but a lot of them are there. Also a huge chunk of their back catalogs available on Xbox Game Pass. Now, the biggest thing here is, while we wanna talk about game preservation, all that means is making sure games are available doesn't necessarily mean that she has to make sure that your games are available. That's right, let's say you own a physical copy of some Xbox 360 game, Microsoft doesn't need to for game preservation reasons, make sure you can still play that particular copy that you own on the next Xbox, they would just have to make sure that game is playable in some form on the next Xbox, even if they resell it to you, or they put it in a service. None of that's really addressed here. This is just one of those things where you have to consider that what she is saying may not mean that you can maintain access to what you already own, just that the games that were there will be available in some form in the future. So that is probably a promise Microsoft will keep in some form, although promises are made to be broken. But still, I just wanted to note here that this doesn't guarantee access to what you currently own on all your Xbox systems, the way it works on Xbox Series X. We don't even know if there's gonna be a physical drive on the next system, right? So just pointing that out, but in terms of game preservation purposes, technically that just means the game's available in some form, not necessarily your copy. Now, that being said, you really should check out the Windows Central article in general because there's a lot of great stuff in there. We're not covering here because I don't feel like it's super relevant to the two big points that we brought up, but will be really relevant to some people, and plus it just gives you further context, so I really do encourage you to go check that out. Now, we need to dive into something here that I think is really fascinating, and that is headlines that popped up on Friday, heading into the weekend, kind of big news, but maybe not what you think, big news in a different way. There's a story out there that Apple is about to allow video game emulators officially in their app store, and this is huge news that actually this came up in a guidelines policy change that is real. It's very much real. In fact, let's read what that policy change says because this isn't as simple as it seems. According to Apple's updated guidelines, many apps, many games, streaming games, chatbots, plugins, and game emulators are allowed, but there's caveats to this. Those include ensuring the software adheres to additional rules that follow 4.7.1 and 4.7.5. This means using in-app purchases to offer digital goods is required. This is key because it notes for game emulator specifically, you can offer downloads of games, but you are responsible for the software offered. If you offer something you don't own, they will remove your application. Now, this could kill some of these emulator apps before they even get started in the app store, as Apple doesn't allow for a way for users to sideload content. Now, you can in Europe, I want to be clear. This is just speaking strictly in the United States. Europe does allow sideloading of apps. The government forced it. They can go to websites in Europe and download apps on your Apple device. That is absolutely a thing. So in theory, you could sideload ROMs in, but we're talking about Apple App Store availability, and this is where we need to get serious because what Apple is saying here is that your emulator could be on their store so long as it offers the ability to purchase things within the app. So they want to make money off you. They don't want it just to be a free app and that it includes things that you can download and use. So I find this fascinating because it seems like what Apple's trying to do is actually saying we don't want just random fan-made emulators going up on our app store officially because we don't want to deal with the legal gray area of that allowing sideloading of ROMs that people don't own. I think this is likely something to encourage Nintendo, Sega even, right? Sony, Xbox to create applications specific for iPhone that allow access to their games in some significant way. As an example, Nintendo could drop say a NES Classic application on there. Within that application, maybe you buy individual Nintendo Entertainment System games from Nintendo. Apple takes their 30% cut Bing bang boom, everyone wins. Billions of people get access to Nintendo's stuff through that app. Nintendo makes some money, Apple makes some money, it's a win-win-win. This essentially is just a change in policy that would now enable that where in the past you could not have game emulators or software emulators or platform emulators of any kind in the Apple app store. Now you can and I think they're trying to encourage these official ones where all the license holders are actually involved with the software. That seems to be what they're trying to do. We'll have to wait and see if that's what actually ends up happening. But hey, for now, this is just my current interpretation. We'll link to the policy down below and you can go ahead and check it out for yourself. Now this last story, forgive me, it's gonna be a bit long-winded. I apologize, but there's a lot to go through here because Good Morning America broke a story last week, late last week Thursday about a mother and father whose eight-year-old son spent $4,000 on video games. Remember, eight years old, doesn't have a job, can't make money. Money had to come from somewhere, right? Now look, these stories seem to be a dime a dozen, but it is notable the couple here was fully refunded, they're all their money. So in the end, no real financial harm, just maybe a scare for a little bit. But we have to dive into this because what we're not gonna show the kid on screen is I don't think it's right to do that. They were pictured at one point during the video portion of the story on Good Morning America, the actual kid, playing games on a tablet, which sort of infers that tablet mobile games is where a lot of this stuff was happening. And the parents had this to say about the situation. I think sometimes it's confusing as to what's real money and what's fake money. And they're talking about in terms of children understanding this. Now the kid was just eight years old, but they got access to one or multiple of their credit cards, which, okay, the story kind of glosses over the exact details here on how the kid got access and spent all that money without their parents even knowing. What they do do, however, is bring in a financial expert from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to make a few statements of which are the following. We want to make sure it's not a haven for fraud, scams, and abuse, talking about video games. What's pretty obvious is that video game companies financial incentives are for players to spend as much as possible. When we have a fraudulent charge on our credit card, we can fight it. Many times you see on these gaming platforms, but they're really just finger pointing or not really taking accountability. I think we shouldn't think of this as traditional video games. It's an immersive world with its own economy. But what we want to make sure of is that it's not just a sidestep to the existing rules. Now one comment quote that I forgot to actually put in my script from this same person was that these video game companies aren't as secure as banks, which I don't really understand why you're bringing banks into the equation here. Banks manage not just your direct access to all of your funds, instead of a single plastic card, they also manage your social security number, oftentimes your driver's license number. They weren't done because they reached out to the ESRB for comment. And here's what the ESRB had to say, we are committed to providing players and parents with transparent information and tools to make appropriate choices for themselves and their families, including the ability to manage in-game purchases, limit or block communication with other players and manage when and for how long their children can play. Now, while that's the story as it stands, I mentioned earlier my issue is with how everything is framed, okay? I have a real big problem with this. Yes, video games has some pretty scummy practices in ways that they make money. No doubt, especially in the mobile space, but it's happening kind of all over.  Now, I don't know this couple, nor their child. And what I do see is how this situation is being framed where it says child spent a lot of parents' money, they should be protected from this, even be impossible, ergo, it's video games fault. That's kind of the way all this read to me. If I'm misinterpreting this, let me know. But this to me is where personal accountability comes into place with the parents themselves and I'm a parent myself, so I'm speaking from a place of experience with this.  That's a claim of the parents. Doesn't know what a plastic card is. Now, they didn't say that themselves, there's no quotes on that, but that's one way that you teach your kid real money, that those plastic cards we have contain real money. You should be teaching them about that, but let's set aside the whole teaching your kid of all real money and virtual currency. A lot of parents probably don't do that. I know I have, but I'm a bit more tech savvy than some other parents, I understand that. So here's what I don't get. The statements are made by the associated people. First, the CFPB, saying that games have financial incentives to make money and they lack the security protections of traditional banks, which they say leaves them vulnerable to hacking. One, the child wasn't hacked in the first place, at least according to the story, and they were freely using their parents' cards. So that's not what's in play here. Two, video games aren't actually banks, nor is the store you used your credit card at yesterday, or most websites that accept credit cards, or most other non-gaming apps as well that also take your payment information. None of them are banks and none of them have the same protection as banks. Banks who get hacked quite frequently, by the way, because banks have your social security number, often your driver's license information as well, and obviously all of your financial accounts and information. A video game application website, any app that just gets access to a plastic card of information that you willfully gave them, a card you can cancel and often get refunded to if it does end up leaking. So you're pretty protected with those plastic cards and that's probably how this family got their $4,000 back in the first place. But it doesn't and shouldn't need the same security measures as a bank because it's not a bank. But the ESRB stated actually really makes me more upset. And it's not because they're wrong. It's actually because it points out something that already exists. You see, as a parent of three kids myself, I have the ability to lock everything down, all right? Every device in my house is kicked off the internet at a set time, even some of my devices, just in case they got access to them. Every device my children can even access is set up as a child device with zero access to make in purchases, even if they did take my credit card. My own devices where purchases can be made have two factor authentication to even access them and then a new password to access buying that is texted to my phone every time I want to make a purchase. Is it annoying for me? Absolutely, but necessary? Probably. I am protecting them and myself. My kids also have limited time with their devices to boot. The point I am making is all of these parental access tools exist, whether it's an Android tablet or phone, Windows, Chrome, Apple. Parents have all the ability to lock all this stuff down and control the access. I even control the internet from the router level. That's how convenient this stuff is right on my phone. I can block, I can set limits, I can kick devices off. It's crazy. So all the purchasing ability, and yes, even applications that are allowed to access are controlled by me. All of this is at everyone's fingertips. This isn't some exclusive tool I'm using. If you only care enough to enable it.  The point is, this eight-year-old kid spent four grand and they blame the video game for having digital currency. A child can't understand the difference between. Meanwhile, said child has access to make purchases in the first place. And that's where I have a problem with the parents' skirting responsibility. Eight is pretty young, but what I see here is a couple of parents trying to pass off blame of their own mistakes. What a surprise, a lot of us try to do this. And everyone kind of trying to back them up and point fingers at the big, bad video game industry for wanting to make money, which is what every industry in a capitalist society, aka America, is trying to do. The game companies can be better. I'm not pretending that they, of all this stuff that they do to make money, is a good thing. It's not. I hate loot boxes and stuff like it. Some of you guys love it. I'm not here to judge. Just a personal preference. Here's the thing, us parents are the ones that really need to shape up. It's a scary world out there, digitally and physically.  I'm pretty passionate about this as a parent. So this story really bothers me and it bothers me probably so much that we probably should end the video here because I just, I see this as a systemic failure of parenting more than a systemic failure of bad video games. Video games are evil. We need to regulate them the way we do banks. I just, guys, this makes no sense to me. Be wise out there. These parental applications aren't even new. Most of them have been around for over a decade. All right, guys, thank you so much for being here. I appreciate your time. That's VG News. We'll catch you in the next episode.


Good morning Cybertraders, happy Wednesday everybody. Nine o'clock in the morning, another exciting earnings week. Good to see you all. Good news of hope. Everyone see what happened with Netflix yesterday? That's what we wanna see. It looks like we have a nice little rally too. We're up about, I don't know, breaking all the time high, we're up about 149 points, over at 38,200. So a lot of it looks like fabulous sevens are gonna be coming out starting next week. The fabulous seven stocks, you know, the apples, the Googles, the Amazons, a lot of earnings week and we're gonna see what's gonna happen with the holidays and everything else. But I think, I'm not more concerned about this quarter. I'm worried about the next quarter and see how that reacts. But listen, a lot of good news, we're gonna check them out and we'll see how it plays off and a couple of the good stocks moving, like the SMCI, you know, Bank of, we got Boeing, got Eli Lilly, we got all these good stocks and moving pretty well. And the video is back up there over 600. Couple of good stocks. But anyway, with that said, let's just go right into it and talk about what is moving this morning. Anyway, yesterday was a really good morning. I mean, we had some unbelievable stocks that did really, really well. And you know, that's what trading is all about. Now listen, we deal with expensive stocks, we deal with cheap stocks, we deal, you know, but it's all about what is the flavor of the day and that's why we always use our top gainers and losers. And just to really quick, if you're watching the channel right now, just don't forget, take your phone, scan that QR code on top left hand corner. If you wanna join our channel, we're live all day in our trading room. And once again, make sure you subscribe to the channel, give us a thumbs up and make sure you ring that bell, all right? If you're on YouTube. Now, in the meantime, let's talk about what some of you guys missed yesterday because yesterday was a really, really good day. I mean, overall there was a lot of good stocks that are moving. Are you am? Great, not only a good day trade, but a great swing trade now it started to become. You could see here just a couple of days ago, the stock was at 330. And by the way, if you logged into our Instagram, I don't know if anyone's here, a lot of Instagram, I'm gonna start taking, I'm gonna start posting not only on our Twitter, but if you're on Instagram, I'll post that on too of the watch, our morning watch list, our day trading watch list and swing trading list. So you guys can get to see that too also that we're finding them. So if you're not around, if you're not getting all alerts in our cyber group room, you know, at least you'll get it somewhere, but you better make sure you subscribe to all social media. We're trying to do the best we can to kind of give you all that access. But ROM was a great moving stock yesterday. Look at this gorgeous thing, at 10 o'clock it was at 520, ran to $7, had great pre-market early in the morning, great, great run up, cheap little stock, unbelievable. DWACC also, stock has not only been a good day trade, but it became a good swing trade. It's down today, you know, but that's irrelevant. It's not being what it's down, but this thing went from $17 all the way to $60 in less than a week. So, hey, Trump, love Trump, we talk about it. Does it matter? What matters is, you know, buy a rumor, sell a news. Listen, what's the rumor? He was gonna win last night. He did win, and they made, that's why it's down. You know what I mean? That's what it's all about with New Hampshire and all these primaries. Just like getting back to Coinbase, remember, rumor went out, gonna get the ETF approval, what happened to all those stocks? Like Coin and everything, they got crushed and went from 190 down to 120, okay? Which, by the way, I'm still considering, I think it's building some support levels here around 20, so it might be here, it could be a little bit of the bottom right here, but we'll talk about that later. iRobot, great little stock right there. The stock got destroyed. I still can't believe that the stock was at, was over like $60.  Went from 40 down to 15. It started not only to become a good day trade, but the day trade became a swing trade. Yesterday, $17, all the way to 1950, great, great day trade. Say, got crushed with the breakup of the JetBlue deal that was not gonna happen, went from 16 down to $4. Well, you know what? Four, it's at eight, it's already at, went as high as almost nine yesterday. That's a double, 100%. Nice little mover. Stock's also moving up pretty well due to being ETF on, you know, NVIDIA and AMD, they also have done very well. Netflix, you know what? This thing's on a different animal on its own. You could see it still hasn't broke all-time highs. You go back in 2021, 700 was it? And this thing went all the way down. This is the only thing that scares me about expensive stocks. You know, I have some people like, well, why are you dealing with cheap stocks? I don't deal with anything under $30. You know, it's gotta be above 40. You know what? I like the $100, $200 stocks. You know what? Netflix got crushed. You know, and if you didn't know how to take a loss right here, this thing dropped all the way down there. And believe me, I know some people that did own that stock back there and it got destroyed.  But look, they come back. They do come back. Just gotta know how to when to jump in and just be patient because everything will back off. AMD doing really well at 172. That wasn't a really good day trade yesterday. The other ones were a little bit better. SMCI, that was that stock. I did that swing trade. I sold it. Shoot, I was gonna buy it back yesterday. It just got too volatile. It got too volatile. Earnings are coming out I think in the next week or so on it. You know, they made an announcement that they said they were gonna blow out earnings and they wanted to kind of be in front of the line, but that stock went from 300 up to almost $500. And you know what's almost back up there, a 480. That one doing well. The video doing well, that's another animal. Chip, obviously very slow moving stock. Charge point, that one came back a little bit. BFRG was pretty good, but this stock went up way too fast. I'm looking, I think it's probably a short squeeze and then obviously plug another stock. Very cheap little stock came back. For all the fans, you know, plug power and charge point and all the EVs. You know what?  It's pretty cheap when you're looking at it right now. But once again, it's not the research. It's what's what the street is thinking. Now let's get back to what's going on this morning because I think to today we got a lot of crap that's going on. Listen, a lot of earnings. Tesla's coming out after the close, looking forward to that. We'll see how that works out. But let's look at some of the stocks that we got right now. EVEX, nice little stock right here. Moving up pretty well. Going back, now let me just change my slide right here and let me just get back to the level for a book viewer. Okay, because remember, we need to see where the orders are. And you know what? I just want to just say, I've been getting an overwhelming email response of everyone here is telling me, Fausto, how do I get the book viewer? How do I get the, how do I find these orders? If you screw these indicators, how do I find it? Listen, I gave you my email. I'll post it up in there again in social media. Everyone here in the cyber group room, you already have my email. Feel how to reach me. Fausto PSETU court, just post that up there. If you guys want to know how to get it, there's my email. All right, let's go see what's going on the market. So anyway, we got this EVEX, right? So EVEX, if you look over here, it's got a great push 650, it's up to nine. Only issue is, you know, it's an ETF. It's not trading on the NASDAQ, okay? Now, when I look at level four, on the other hand, I'm not really seeing that much out there. It's very messy, very messy. So even though it's the biggest percentage gainer, I'll put it on the B list and it won't be on the A list. So EVEX is out there and I have to put it there because it's up 75%. But I'm just not seeing a lot of orders. This one looks a little bit better. So this one right here, we got some big orders. It doesn't have a lot of iceberg orders, okay? So once again, nice moving stock, cheap, up 69%. But when I go over here, I forgot to do my filters. When I check over here and see what's going on, SPRC, okay? You could see that there's not really that much. There's a couple of 5,000 share cells, not the big 10, 20, 50,000 I'm looking for. Put this on the B list, okay? SPRC. Listen, program trading kicks in at 9.30. You see it when we start trading live in a cybergroup room. That's what we have to put a pause on and see how that works out. This one, a 40%, another stock, very, tier sizes, very, very small, not a lot of buyers and sellers out there. And you know that half of the people fail in trading because some stocks are not that tradable because of, you can't get in and out of it. The spread alone right now is over 20 cents and that's only by 100. Now, when we look at this stock right here, NXU, this one we got some good volume on, all right? NXU, all right? Now, the thing about NXU is that we do got some nice iceberg orders. I'm seeing some big ones here. Look at, you can see here around $2. Got 19,000, 11,000. So yeah, now we got some decent iceberg orders that we're looking for. If you look over here at the resistance levels at two, kind of makes sense. Do I see support levels? It looks like it's holding right around here. And listen, it's a cheap stock. Listen, the stock was $100. It was $100 back in July. This thing got destroyed. Maybe it's a dead cap bounce. You know what fans of that? You know how I love dead cap bounces, all right? You know how I love bottom fishing, even though I do love fishing in general, okay? Especially the summer flounder, which is a bottom feeder, all right? I don't know, maybe that's what it is, but no. Hey, you know what? Everybody's looking to get a good deal. Maybe this is it. We don't know if it's a swing trade, but as a day trade, that's going on our watch list. CYTO is another one that looks like it's moving up pretty decent here. All right, CYTO doesn't have the biggest iceberg orders, all right? CYTO, but it does got some, it just started moving just about now. Volume is just starting to pick up. So it's the, what I liked about this stock is some of you will remember, we did trade this stock back in December. Remember the stock ran from $2, ran it to 16. So that's why this one's going back on our watch list, CYTO. All right, so could make a good move. I got some orders here hovering between 350 and 260, all right? Right now we're at a pretty big support level. So that's not terrible. Listen, we're at 17%, we're at number six on the list. Little too cheap, not really nothing going out there. This one doesn't kind of flat, flat Netflix. I mean, I got to put it on there because I don't want to sound like I'm anti, you know, $500 stock. I mean, the only reason I like to put these stocks on there because I bet if you go on anyone's watch list, they all have, ooh, Netflix, Netflix is on there. Netflix is on there, you know what I mean? That's the only reason why like, we know Netflix. People want to know, well, what about the other ones? What about the other 20,000 that are not out there that I need to hear about that were up there pretty big? Bet so, everyone remembers BETS, right? But it's moving up, ah, it's garbage right now. Let's go hop on the losers list. All right, so a D-wack is on there, we know why it's down, okay? We already just talked about that earlier. These are all garbage, not moving anything. Now, the Chinese stocks are moving, EDU's moving, TAL's moving, TAL's a little bit cheaper. They don't really have the greatest iceberg orders of these stocks right here, but when they, TAL does a little bit, not EDU, and EDU's a little expensive, EDU. These are the Chinese education stocks, so we're gonna put them on there. So you have EDU and TAL. All right, we're gonna keep an eye on those two. Is there anything going on with TAL? So TAL's got a pretty decent seller out there. He's more in New York on the, he's on a different exchange. You could see it right there, is $19,000 at $13, and you got $16,000 at 1160, so we kind of already know where the resistance level is on that on TAL. I'll bring this up here. You don't see it here on the intraday chart, but I do see her on program trading charts, okay? So that's what we're looking at. Here's another ETF, and MPU is moving up pretty decently, but not really that much. Got you, we've done really well with Got You. Remember that day that, that was in December, ramping $2 to $5. She's up a little bit right now, but not really that much volume. DuPont is getting crushed. DuPont is getting hammered. So obviously whatever, they must have earnings and it wasn't that good, all right? So looking at here on DuPont, we'll put that on our watches because we could short it.  This is an option play. Shorting is options, right? Not that much orders out there, so not really super crazy about it, but I'm gonna put it on my watches. Blackberry is also getting hit. By the way, I just saw the movie on Blackberry.  I was one of those guys in that movie in Blackberry. I loved it. I was one of the last Bohigians that went over before I went to Apple, but unfortunately we can't short it. Might get a dead cat bounce, but definitely get, watch that movie, you'll like it. But I'm gonna put BB on the watch list. So there's a lot of stocks that obviously get crushed due to their earnings. And you know, you might not know about it, but they're really showing up here. There are showing up on the list. Now, pretty decent, pretty decent list right there. Pretty decent. I'll go out there and I'll put this on our watch list. Anything we're missing, I did not call out. Any other stocks? Yes. And that's another thing too. Phase one is today also. So we'll get, Josh's gonna go over journaling.  You know we're gonna review your journals with you. It's always nice to somebody, like almost like a doctor looking at your chart and well, we do that here at Cybertree University. That's why I've been doing this for 30 years. But we're gonna do it in class. We're gonna do it in the group. So if you wanna know how to get into that class, talk to education advisor. If you're watching social media, grab your phone, scan that QR code, and you'll be able to get in there. We'll show you how we do that. Cause remember, you gotta learn before you could earn. Market's opening up in less than 15 minutes. Let's get ready for the market fellow traders. Listen, I am going to be out for the next two days. I have a conference to go down in Florida. The staff CTU, Josh Rich and John and Debbie and Greg and Alex, all these guys will be here to help you out. But we'll still be here. And remember, we're live every morning at 9 a.m. and at 2 30 here on all social media. So guys, let's get ready for the market open up. Get ready for class two right after. And let's just make our money and get ready for class. All right, good luck everybody. Happy trading and be safe.


Hey this is Brian with Razorback Offroad. Today we're going to be going over the install of the Sherpa Rack for the 21 and up Canyon Commander. All right just to give an overview of the things we need for this job we have our commander basket and then we have both of our side pieces. Moving forward we have some specialty hardware we have these brackets we'll use later and then some backing plates. We have 12 core 20 bolts and 12 flange nuts of that size. We have six larger fender washers and then two smaller washers. Going forward we have six of our five sixteenths bolts. You're going to need a half inch, a seven sixteenths, and a three eighths wrench to complete this job and I'm going to be using an impact just to make it a little bit faster in some of these areas. We're going to start out by removing the side panels. What you're going to do is you're going to drop this tailgate. Here's some Zeus screws right here we're going to remove those all you got to do is twist those out have those ready put those aside and do your other side all right have those ready for later and then all you got to do is slide these panels off just like that we're going to put those aside and repeat the other side. All right now that we have those panels removed next thing we're going to do is we're going to pre-drill the holes for the mounting hardware. We're going to be drilling two spots there are pre-made dimples for the manufacturer that we're going to be following with our first drill bit which is a quarter inch and then after that we're going to step it up to one size larger than the five sixteenths. I'm going to go ahead and do that and just be careful there's some wiring down here but you should be clear of it there's a metal plate in here for extra strength when you're putting the hardware on so just be mindful of that nice easy like that.  All right we're going to go ahead and grab the hardware beneath the side so we're going to grab one large fender washer one five sixteenths bolt one small washer and then a five sixteenths flange nut. Go ahead and grab our socket and a half inch and then our half inch ratcheting wrench so we're going to put that larger fender washer on top and just feed it on through and we're going to start by just hand tightening this flange nut on the back it's kind of a reach but you should be able to get it up in there it also helps to have very long hands. You're going to want to use the socket on the bottom because it's recessed. Just want to keep your finger on top. All right nice and snug now and now we can rotate that up after we do the other side. So I'm going to put that left side up there just like last time grab another five sixteenths bolt large fender small washer and flange nut. I'm just going to repeat that same process. All right now that's tight go ahead and pull up jewels down raise the tailgate and the KM commander is equipped with this little handle right here for lowering the bed. So we're going to go ahead and do that. It's all right the pieces will move a little bit they're not going to go anywhere. Next we're going to grab our backing plates another five sixteenths bolt and fender washer. You don't need a nut because you actually have a weld nut on the back of them. We're going to go to this top one here put that bolt through and then we're going to put our backing plate up with a weld nut going through the bed. Just want to make sure we get it nice and tight start out you feel the resistance with the weld nut and that way it's not going anywhere. All right we're going to go ahead and repeat that process with the right side of the machine. I'm going to go ahead and use an impact makes it a little faster but this can be done with hand tools. Repeat for the right side you want these to be pretty tight. So next we're going to use this piece of hardware to mount the center part of the side. You're going to put your hand in with this and you're going to be able to drive the bolt through that and it's actually inside the machine. Just get a hand tight so that piece of hardware doesn't fall down. All right we're going to repeat the process for the other side and a little tip is that this piece can go all the way against that hard top in the bed and that way it goes straight in with the bolt. Kind of go ahead and grab our half inch socket and ratchet and tighten these guys down. You want these to be very tight. I'm going to go back and tighten these up now. Cool. Go ahead and put that away for now. Next we can actually put the bed back up. We're going to go ahead and put the basket in. So luckily I'm 6'5", so I can do this by myself but if you are not 6'5", you might have to have someone help you with this. Just going to slide that basket just in like that. Next we just want to make sure that all the holes line up with the basket and the sides. Looks like they do. So I'm going to go ahead and grab six of the core 20 flange bolts. I'm going to go ahead and grab the step sole behind the machine. You just want to line up each bolt with a slot and there are six on each side. Got this one in the front too as well. All right go ahead and move this step ladder over to the other side. We're going to grab our other six bolts. You might have to space out the basket and the side and then last for one. Now we can take all 12 of our flange nuts to get those started and then we'll come back and hammer them home with the impact. You want to hold these bolts down while you start these nuts that way it just doesn't slip on you. So now we have those nuts all started. We're going to go ahead and grab our impact and our ratcheting wrench. So we're going to use a 3 eighths on the impact and then 7 sixteenths wrench for the nuts. So we're actually going to start in this bottom flange here. We're going to do these three first and then we're going to work our way from the back to the front. Now these will be pretty tight. We're going to repeat that for the other side. Okay those are all tightened down now. So the last thing we have to do is drop that tailgate again. Go ahead and put our core panel back on. Make sure that overlaps there. Just slide forward. Go ahead and repeat for the other side. Grab the hardware that came with it. Put those guys back in. All right let's now wrap up the installation of our K&M Commander Sherpa Rack on 2021 to current. Thank you guys and we'll see you out in the trail.


Hello everyone, this is Shila Ratna Banshwade from Walshchan Institute of Technology, Solabor. As a part of machine drawing curriculum, we are going to see the basics of machine drawing. What are the basics, what conventions do we need to follow, what rules do we need to follow, we will be dealing with in this video. Let us move further, learning outcomes. At the end of this session, students will be able to classify the drawings. What kind of different drawings are available as far as engineering is concerned. Also students will be able to correctly dimension the given drawings. So, two conditions that what are the types of drawings and how to dimension these types of drawings, we will see into detail. Moving further, as we all know, drawing is a language that engineers used to convey their idea or to convey any diagram to a third person. So, it is a graphical language, language of engineers. Drawing displays the exact picture of an object. As we all know, if you want to convey the thing in a short manner, we go for drawings or signs. The symbols that you see on roads, the symbols that you see on automobiles like lights symbol, horn symbol, these are all drawings that convey the exact picture of the object. They convey the exact idea without the use of words and they convey very easily. And as we all know, there are no barriers to use these kind of symbols, these kind of drawings throughout the world. A horn symbol and a slash over it clearly indicates that there should not be blowing a horn in this area or a symbol of a mobile, a diagram of a mobile and a slash over it indicates that use of mobiles is prohibited. So, around the world, across the world diagrams can be used, drawings can be used to convey the ideas. You can say that it is a universal language of all engineers. Not only engineers, but drawing conveys the ideas very easily. As far as engineering drawing is concerned, it is a universal language. As we have certain standards, we have certain rules, we have certain principles on the basis of which we go on drawings, we will move further. Now what is the need for correct drawing? The drawing is a thing prepared by technical persons and it needs to be very clear, there should not be any mistakes into it and there should not be more than one idea being conveyed. It should convey the exact idea without any mistakes and clearly. Also drawing forms an official document and thus the success or failure of that particular product or that particular idea depends on how clearly the idea is being put forth through the drawing. A slight minor mistake in the drawing can lead to a bigger manufacturing defect if the drawing is provided to any production unit. So, clear, correct and accurate drawings have made the possibilities to manufacture big machines and automobiles that too on a mass scale. Correct and precise drawing conveys the correct idea that helps in the manufacturing of accurate product with accurate dimensions. Thus it is very much important to understand, to get know the principles and conventions of drawings that are being used or that are being needed. Let us see further how drawings are classified. The first and the very most type of drawing is the machine drawing. This is the machine drawing, this indicates a component of a machine element. This is a simple machine element drawing and here is a component being represented by the drawing. This gives you sectional area where sectional cutting plane and this is the sectional view all dimensions and nodes are being provided over it. Any drawing of a machine component is called as machine drawing. Next we have production drawing. In production drawing you can see there are certain additional elements being added like here geometrical tolerance is added, surface roughness what kind of surface roughness is required is added, there are certain tolerance is being added. So, this drawing is given for production unit with all manufacturing details. Here you can see the machining symbol, what kind of machining to what allowance it needs to be machined, every manufacturing detail is being mentioned on this. So, this is called as production drawing. Then we have assembly drawing. Assembly drawing is a drawing of all the assembled components, a single unit, all the components that are being assembled and then the drawing is drawn. For assembly drawing you provide a table, a table is provided over here. Then we have catalogue drawing, catalogue drawing is provided with the product. When you buy a product there the catalogue drawing is provided. Then we have assembly drawing for instruction manuals. When you buy a new automobile you have a manual and in that you can find these kind of drawings where each parts are being numbered and the description of each part is given in this side. So, this is assembly drawing for instruction manuals. Then we have exploded drawing. Exploded drawings are also provided with the products where you need to assemble the products. So, how each part fits into it or how each parts can be removed is shown in this exploded view and each part is being numbered and the name for each part is given in side. Then we have schematic assembly lines or schematic assembly diagrams. Schematic assembly diagrams are used where very detailed drawing is not possible and you want to convey how power is being transmitted or how the flow of energy is going to take place to the drawing. As you can see here it is a prime ore and this is how the power is being transmitted with the help of gears. So, this is a line diagram, a simple line diagram is called a schematic assembly diagram. Then coming to dimensions. As we all know dimensions are the number values that expressed that are expressed with the help of appropriate units. In the previous drawing also you can see there are certain dimensions being provided. So, these are dimensions. See it is indicated on drawing using lines or symbols and nodes. Going back see these are represented with the help of symbols, these are represented with the help of nodes and number values. Depending upon what you want to convey the dimensions can be used. They completely define the feature. What kind of size, what kind of shape, what kind of machining is required is conveyed with the help of dimensions. Then elements of dimensions. Now this is the origin of dimension where you start the dimension for this particular product or this particular component. This is where you start the dimensions.  So, this is called as the origin, this is called as the origin. Then the dimension is terminated with the help of arrow head. Here is the termination of the dimensions. This is called as leader line, this is called as leader line where you mention a note over it. Now, these are projection lines that you project from the object. These are projection lines, lines of projections. Then this is the value of dimension. This is the value of dimension. So, these are some of the elements. Some of the elements this is called as the dimension line that are used during dimensions. Now, coming to types of dimensions, here you see on screen are aligned dimensions. As the shape or inclination of the boundary of object goes on, you incline the dimension value also. See here it is inclined, here it is straight, so it is straight, here it is exactly vertical, so exactly vertical. Now, here in different angles you can see the value 20 is been inclined in different directions. Here also in different directions, the value 60 is inclined. So, these are called as aligned dimension. They align themselves to the boundary of the objects. Then we have unidirectional dimensions. No doubt or without any consideration of the inclination of the boundary of the object, the dimensions are given exactly vertical as you can see on screen. So, irrespective of the inclination of the boundary of the object, here exactly 60, exactly vertical the value 60 is mentioned. Then we have arrangement of dimensions, how the dimensions are arranged or how the dimensions can be arranged on a diagram or on a drawing. Here you can see the dimensions are in line one after the other, one after the other, here also one after the other. So, they form a chain like pattern and hence called as chain dimensions. Chain like pattern hence called as chain dimensions. Then we have parallel dimensions next to each other, next to each one below the other, one above the other, exactly here. We have a single point of origin over here. From this reference the dimensions are measured. In a drawing you can use a combination of both, chain dimension as well as parallel dimensions. Then we have dimensioning methods for diameters. As you can see on screen, these are some of the dimensioning methods that you can use for diameters or dimensioning diameters. Here you can use a symbol phi, phi here, see for an arc you use radius.  So, phi represents diameter, phi represents diameter, r represents the radius. Then dimensioning of thread and tapers as you can see on screen. Here taper on both the side, so triangle is used. Here trapper on one side, so only this triangle, right angle triangle is used. Here you both side you have a triangle, single taper. Here it is thread both side taper. Then these are certain points to be remembered which indicates that dimension should not be given on the drawing. They should be represent on left and right or right hand side of the drawing. Two dimensions should not cross each other, they should be separately aligned. Now I suggest you to kindly go through pause the video and go through these points. So all what are the principles, what are the basic rules that we follow during dimension are mentioned over here on the screen. As far as possible dimension should not be given on the drawing. It should be side of the drawing. It should be on the side of the drawings. These are the references. Thank you.

Welcome to another edition of the AccessToTrader.com nightly wrap up show. Hope everybody is doing well. Hope everybody had a good day of trading market. Again, does this thing, right? Continues do its thing. First and foremost, before we get started, let me be the first person to wish you guys an early, happy, and healthy Thanksgiving. I know slowly but surely as the week starts to prolong, more people are going to be traveling. We're taking some days off for enjoying yourselves, enjoying the early festivities, so I just want to wish you guys a happy and healthy. For the rest of you, the generates, just like me and everybody else that is listening to the broadcast, welcome aboard, guys. If you are brand new, guys, the only thing we ask is like, right? Like, share, subscribe to the channel, and we will hopefully continue to provide good value. Let me know if you heard this before. Market is strong, right? Market is strong. The analogy that you hear on social media, and again, granted, this could be from random people, the idea that the market sucks is very, very tough to digest. The cues are up nearly 47% for the year. Okay, I guess that statement holds some order depending what you are trading or how you trade. But if you're focused in the NASDAQ 100, it doesn't suck. It doesn't suck. Not even close to sucking. And matter of fact, again, 47% year to date is kind of a big deal. And when you see the leadership, the leadership keeps on going higher, getting aggressive, more speculation monies coming in, further out of the money call buyers are coming in. Really, really aggressive institutional contribution to this tape. You have to really, really like what we are. Again, I always try to remind, especially the new traders, this could go away on a snap of a finger. Just again, all you need to do is go back into history. But for now, let's just enjoy it. Let's just absolutely enjoy it every single day. We come in prepared to make sure we don't get caught off guard, to make sure kind of a blow off rounding scenario doesn't start to form. That's why we're always ready on both sides of the market. But going into especially the Thanksgiving holiday, it's a wonderful, wonderful thing to see. People are just happy, right? People are happy, investors happy, traders are happy. It's a greater feeling. It's a much better, good-hearted feeling when holiday time, everybody's in a good mood versus last year when 2022, people wanted to carve out their own eyeballs instead of the turkey of the dismantling that the market was having. Going into 2023, nobody knew what to expect after a 36% debacle on the queues, and we're getting it. We made back everything from last year, another 10% above it, and now we have what? Another month left of the year, so pretty damn cool. Absolutely cool. If you watched last night's video or the weekend video, I gave you guys a couple of levels on the queues. We were watching for potential back test below this 383. Again, all you have to do is just go look at a weekend video from yesterday on 383 to the downside. We talked about 387.75 to the upside. As you can see, the queues confirmed 387.75, confirmed last week's highs, and we basically closed within 50 cents of euphoria. Euphoria, and if you look at the weekly view, we look at the weekly view. The market took out the July 2023 highs. This is now the highest close in this whole formation since July. If you look at the monthly chart, we're not that far off from all-time highs. Again, all-time highs are 408.71 on the queues. Can they muster enough juice to get there? We'll see. Right now, the same formula keeps on working. Strong stocks, if they dip in the morning, continue to buy them into rising 60-minute support. That's what we did today with Amazon and wait for tight channels to break. That's what we did today with NVIDIA. We'll talk about NVIDIA in a second. Overall, pretty cool. Pretty cool. Hopefully, all you guys who are watching this broadcast continue to get great value from our broadcast. If you want to learn pivots, I know there's a lot of people supposedly showing the PS60 theory online. I'm not sure how, but we are the only ones who trade the PS60 theory, at least the proper way. If you are interested in pivots and you're stuck in that neutral space in your career, starting your career, again, I've had this conversation with a number of people that joined the webinar. You guys were talking to me on Twitter for 10-12 years. Why did it take so long? I'm lazy. Guys, don't be lazy. Take 30 days. See how these pivots work. See if it's a right fit for you. Believe me, you'll never look at the market the same way again. It's a completely proprietary way of looking at the market. It's pretty darn good. It's pretty darn good. Let's talk about the tape. Obviously, blah, blah, blah. Cues are higher. That's great. The focus going into tomorrow is NVIDIA. We talked about a potential run-up for the last two, three days, potential run-up into their earnings. Yeah, they ran today. They ran today, and not only did they run today, they took out some pretty big levels. They took out the 499.60 that was last week's highs, and they also took out the 502.66. Those are the highs from August that we talked about, and this is now the highest close in this whole formation. I think this is the all-time high close in the regular session. I know it traded last quarter to 520 after hours into earnings, but I think this is the all-time high on a closing basis. What's crazy about what we're seeing on NVIDIA today after this now, keep this in mind, the stock has run from the 1031 lows from 392 to 505. Right now, it's trading almost 506 after hours. But the crazy part about it is after this three-week move, guys, if you guys don't have an option scanner, if they were coming for the 550 calls today with size going into tomorrow's earnings, it was the last day. It was padded buying. It was the last day to buy calls. It was absolutely amazing. We even saw some, I think we even saw 600 call being bet, but I'll tell you one thing, with all the money flow going into the NVIDIA, we don't know, and I said this on the weekend video, we don't know if the earnings are going to be baked into the next potential move, but boy, oh boy, those call buyers are really, really aggressive, and they're looking basically for another 10% move on earnings. We'll see if they're right. We'll absolutely see what they're right, but today was pretty awesome. NVIDIA closed out, confirmed, excuse me, a pretty big level to August highs, and we took it for a nice ride. I saw a little bit of a runner, very, very tiny little runner overnight. I'm trying to sell it by the time you guys see this broadcast. I'm hoping the stock is like 507, 508. I'd like to kind of get rid of it, but tomorrow night, they come out with earnings and we will see what their reaction is. Another name, right? Another name that is getting close, and this is the one I want to talk about, right? So Tesla, if you've been following this broadcast, again, you kind of know this is my favorite stock. It's had some pretty good orderly moves. It took out this whole range here. It had this big move here. It reclaimed the 50-day moving average, had another monster move, lost the 50-day moving average, had a nice short to the downside filling in this gap, and now we're kind of just straddling the 5-day moving average. Now, why is this coming into play? Why am I so gung-ho about the stock? Well, it's the options market, right? So pretty much every stock right now is in orbit, right? No matter what stock you're looking at. Guys, there were buyers coming in today. When the stock was like 232, 233, there were buyers coming in today to the 240s, the 245s, to the 250 weeklies, and then the 250 weeklies next week with a lot of size, right? With a lot of size. Considering the stock is still below the 50-day moving average, considering these bets were $10, $12, $15 out of the money, especially for this week, right? When the stock was at 232 today, 233, they were coming for the 245, 247, 50 weekly calls. Considering we are all fun Thursday and considering we only have a half-day on Friday, they're basically taking a 2.5-day rental for 10 to 13 points out of the money. Hey, again, as the old data says, does somebody know something? I don't know if somebody knows anything, but what we do know is the 50-day moving average is right over here, right, guys? It's right over here. We're not that far off, okay? This is the area that we want to see Tesla reclaim. If they could reclaim the 50-day moving average, I think it's going to start to stretch. Now, again, is there a guarantee to reclaim the 50-day? Of course not. This is actually one of the very few names that are still sitting below the 50-day moving average. But boy, oh boy, guys, watch Tesla in the next couple of days, especially if they continue to come with the 245, 250 weeklies with literally 2.5 days, 10, 12 points out of the money. Again, that gets my attention all the time, so we're going to watch it, right? We're definitely going to watch Tesla if it can reclaim the 50-day moving average in the next day or so, because if it does, guys, all you need to do it. And the 50-day moving average is a little light blue line here. Guys, look, I just want to give you guys several examples of what happens when a stock reclaims the 50-day, right? If all you guys are new, right? So the Qs reclaim the 50-day moving average on November the 2nd, okay? They went from 363 to 391, okay? This is just reclaiming the 50-day. Amazon reclaimed the 50-day moving average on October the 30th. It went from 133. The stock right now is at 146. Nvidia reclaimed the 50-day moving average right over here, okay? On November the 2nd, okay? It went from 428, and the stock right now is at 5, almost at 506 after hours. You get the picture? That's what we need Tesla to do, right? We need Tesla to reclaim this light blue line. If it can reclaim this light blue line, boy, oh, boy, I think this damn thing can start stretching, and that's definitely one you definitely want to keep an eye on. Other names we definitely want to watch for the next day or so. Some consolidation channels, which are pretty good here. Let's talk about some names here. Look at Target, right? Target came out with earnings last week. It's just going sideways, just a matter of time. Remember the DDOG chart, right? Guys remember the DDOG chart? Stock was just going sideways and then finally just erupted. Look at Target, same chart, right? Target's exactly the same chart, just a matter of time when it finally gets above earning size. But if it does, this thing looks pretty damn good. Look at Home Depot, right? Home Depot's another name. The stock gapped up. It's going sideways. If they could just get above this channel here, right? If they could just reclaim this linear regression line, this thing could wake up as well. Keep an eye on that. Look at a name like Letter U, right? Letter U as well. It reclaimed the 50-day moving average a couple of days ago, but never confirmed it. Guys, watch for the confirmation for the next couple of days on Letter U. If it could reclaim back the 50-day moving average, it could start its run as well. So that looks pretty good as well. As you guys know fully, guys, in the crypto space, Bitcoin is going nuts. All this crypto is going nuts. Guys, look at Mara, right? Look at Mara. If you guys remember, we talked about Coinbase on the weekend video, right? Coinbase, Coinbase went absolutely nuts. Look at Mara, right? Look how close Mara is from waking up here. Keep an eye on this thing as well. If the bulls start to continue this crypto charge, it looks very, very good. So tomorrow, again, obviously, Nvidia comes out with earnings. Is this move already priced in? We don't know. Is this move going to be solved after they come out with earnings? We don't know. It's all speculation.  Again, like I said a couple of days ago, I could literally be holding, right? Literally be holding Tesla in the video's earnings report in front of my face reading it and I still don't know how the stock is going to react after earnings and nobody does either. But the point is the move has been made. Hopefully, you know, hopefully, I want to, you know, if they can get the 507.508 today after the close, I'll be more than happy to get rid of it. But tomorrow, my attention is definitely on Tesla. I'm also watching AMD, see if it can kind of get above last week's range as well. So we have a lot of names. We are definitely watching, but keep this in mind, folks. It is our shortened holiday season. I'm guessing by tomorrow afternoon, maybe early Wednesday, you're going to start to see, you're going to start to see the volume really dry up because again, this is the busiest travel holiday season of the year. So again, guys, for all you guys who are not trading on Wednesday or Thursday, on Thursday, but you are trading tomorrow. Let me be, again, the first person to wish you guys a happy and healthy Thanksgiving and hopefully the wonderful world that we live in is gentle and kind and sweet to you and hopefully you can reciprocate back. Guys, God bless. Stay blessed. I will see you all tomorrow. Take care.
