Good morning. Good evening. Good afternoon, everybody Welcome back to another stream. Hope you guys are doing great Finally got some good amount of sleep yesterday woke up a decent amount of time So I'm raring to go if you can't tell by the enthusiasm in my voice So let's get started yesterday pretty much went ahead pretty fast I mean, I thought it was a bank holiday and I was mistaken and gain mistakes Everyone's fallible to mistakes like I said US market was actually open yesterday. They just think I had a being Holy in different outs he was I don't know but either it was open so pretty much Last half what I said was in terms of expecting quiet day Stuff in the middle what I said in terms of target wise praying for downward movements pretty much came came in and here we are Now made a link and coming back up. So if you just I just wrote here and just woke up. You're like, ah, I missed everything. Oh, what do I do? Okay, none There's another sort of marketing stuff again. It always stands off the balance already Nice little tap here and you can see this is this is what you want from this nice little tap run away There's your sort of bias for the day already come in a bit bullish which is nice Monday already created a nice little uh high and low for us. So we've got our weekly high Which is uh, we'll be here There you go. There's our weekly high uh You need to go ahead and mark our weekly low Monday's weekly lows here I just want to be here. There you go. Right variation again Monday and Tuesday have different lows, but because like again people like to mark things differently. I like to have Monday marked as as your primary then you have each Monday and Tuesday for your uh T. S. Sherry sort of range Okay, yeah Yeah, I still have your question in terms of congestion zones. Yeah, go ahead talk about those now if you want Uh congestion zones areas like this where you have uh areas of bars And in terms of trying to identify them the easiest way to possibly do that is probably to do If you're struggling, uh Switch up call them something different Uh Thing is uh, what was it? Smith The strat the strat numbers just click click on that. There you go Uh Uncheck everything. So the strat is like another sort of bar counting measure. It's just It's actually like super nice uh to sort of uh This gets really early, but essentially what you're looking for is is the ones So one is in inside bar And as you can see you have this coming in nice little one Your two one two nice little patterns you learn but That's neither here or there but in terms of these bars you can see this entire sort of range here coming in You've got a nice little consolidation with these bars coming in Inside and closing inside the previous sort of wick. So this would be a nice little congestion zone here So it's nice like I said, we waited you can identify this area here And you can see how we come back and we have this entire area here as soon as we leave away We come back we treat this as support we push away That's sort of what congestion zones are if you're looking for inside Uh inside actual things and if you want to visualize it a nice way to again visualize it is using the strap Being awesome I'm not trying to think of Rob Barker Who's Rob Barker? Why is that name in my head?  Uh, if you're sort of uh Going on again. He does make the chart a bit noisy. So Uh, just find ones that show the numbers and we'll start learning sort of what inside bar looks like These closes are inside a previous high and low This closes with inside high and low. You can see these inside this high and low Got this wick and Another way to sort of visualize it is just looking at orders and you can see Uh trap liquid. Yes. Essentially. That's all it is. It's understanding where trap liquidity and Trap places will be you can see they started creating this level and let Trap liquidity at this sort of drop here And that'll be the large drop. You've got your wicks coming up on your drop and you Time was much later on live Yeah, there we go. Yeah, it is about this. I mean, well, yeah, it is this area here as you can see three CPI two two pimentos. Yeah Uh, it's coming into a bearish point anyway, but I think I think generally today might be a nice, uh Nice range bound day. Hopefully not not too aggressive Like always, I don't have the correct 10 Right. Okay, uh, what was I gonna do? Yeah, go back to this. Uh, as you can see here We started creating this nice little ledge, uh, within sort of price here and you can see when they came back to it There you go, nice little orange as you can see this little area here they created most of the sort of, uh Drops here as you can see then you got this sort of amount of longs that generally if we started going below you'd sort of look at us as the inverse Are seeing this as traps So you can see as soon as they came down They were introducing too many longs into the system. So they like, okay, you know, this is very counterintuitive. Let's let's move Let's move the gold posts away, uh from from this, uh, let's move it away And you've seen the same thing happen here where you're introducing longs into it But you're introducing it at a higher point. You can see the previous sort of area here where we had have Rather the area of longs entered in Point here Soon back out coming to yesterday Get rid of these there we go Move it out Uh, let's go over yesterday because we haven't gone over it. Uh, in terms of timing wise you can see, uh The sort of test that the daily imbalance yesterday was pretty much the highest Uh point for the new york session and you can see as soon as we hit 10 o'clock EST We got we got the one shift change to break people's legs Then you could have entered exactly on that Uh here and they dropped starts dropping down hit cell sort of first target area and And you can see this start thinning out as soon as it starts thinning out here, you know to let up Uh on this sort of wall that we're sort of looking at for primary as primary wall, uh It's not the next you can see it starts pulling up. So it's okay. We need to reel it back We need to we introduced a lot of shorts in the system We need to liquidate them and they liquidated them uh here and here Which is surprising looks like as soon as this went down here a lot of people entered short And in some liquidations Something you see there Then it pulls down as you can see and then just starts giving a nice little choo choo train here nice little choo choo train Go, I don't know. Maybe it's just my science going bad. Uh, but there you go. Uh, nice little choo choo train Nice little stack where we stack up high Introduce that Then we move away Don't allow The stack to be free And we drop and then the train leaves the station Expands downloads You can see it within the charts, I think I don't I don't know but it's much easier to see like this I think If you think this is easier finding it in the charts is easier Probably in the charts might be easier Here's what, there you go choo choo train Leave the station Get the stack upwards All the station sidewards and then it leaves off And there we go We said we said like wait for 10 o'clock and then you can see the 10 o'clock gave you two bars to enter in on So you wouldn't you got your confirmation much later. I'm sure you miss out on This entry but at the same time It's safer I mean come on It won't pay for safety Safety so you could have entered in on this bar here and you would have been instantly sort of rewarded And the whole day actually even up until sort of the morning time Which is nice. It's always nice. As for today what we're sort of looking at in the charts is you can see Maybe we see this area here. This is an area look for We have the tops of this area I don't want to box We have the top of the area which also sort of coincides with potential 50% Here See sort of just below That becomes the highest point within the sort of chart we sort of say after you know what There's 50% if we sort of pull down during this During this time Awesome even move sideways and pull down. We'll see what happens I think we've connected enough. Let's see how these orders are Heavy stacks here, but as you can see this is sort of a large sort of bar area It's what news outlets was on today Oh, we had we had several news unemployment rate for the uk actual went down, which is nice. I think that sort of caused a nice little reaction Uh Let's see CRB ECB actually CRB Uh, um, brazil, oh brazil is doing good. Yeah Uh, it's just a lot of china stuff. We don't really care for china Fed speakers interesting midday seems like a nice little turning point. Uh, depending on what we have, uh happen In the current sort of market That was nice to see what they say bank of england are coming in at the tail end Session as well. We'll see what they do to the market, but Generally speaking, I don't think they have much power and they don't have much Even no power over us. Thank you. They do, uh, but I mean we've got a nice little pump off this we're looking we're potentially looking for this to hold if we do come back Retest it, uh, I think that's the most ideal case if we sort of come back retest it and hold here Uh, even if we sort of dilly dally and I think dilly dallying is It's a burden. I don't think most people, uh But uh, if we dilly dally, uh, that's sort of much better because it gives us time because we're waiting on time elements So today just because we know that uh, 12 o'clock seems like a nice little turning point. So we're waiting for 12 to see what happens and maybe even that too, uh Three years or even maybe even that too. So we see what happens within these in these sort of session It's in this sort of time and in the build out. So 10 o'clock. We have two hours See what happens from 10 o'clock to 12 o'clock Then from 12 o'clock we can sort of either carry on moving We won't carry on moving in the same direction. We might break some out ankles Then we might just start reversing the direction From the 10 o'clock direction. So it might be an interesting day today That's what usually happens. I mean news days are are usually very brutal A little choke happening here. It's nice. I mean They are thickening. Uh, as you can see the color changes. So it's only adding to that Uh, I don't know why it's not Showing that It might be pretty much too high for it Okay, that's fine So you see that area of shorts here that might be able to drive price higher based on those shorts You know selling here, uh, it was mostly liquidations I dropped that price here and we already targeted a lot of short liquidations So well, I think we're waiting for new people to try and to short. Uh, we'll see if we can get them entered into this Into this area here To maybe try to drive price higher If we can we can sort of try push Higher prices, but that's the only way we can push for higher prices On the current sort of day But generally speaking, uh, not a bad day Yesterday doesn't look like it's gonna be a bad day today. We have our sort of lows and highs in place Slanted and hit back into this, uh, I think the lowest we try try for today is this area here I think, uh, we don't get to it In terms of tomorrow, hopefully We sort of look for this we try to create some Sort of destructive sort of nature Because as you can see, we zoomed out this entire sort of region. We have a lot of shorts A lot of short sellers, uh, in this entire sort of range here And without sort of uh, after the price movement Most of these have been liquidated here and there, but I think some of these are still within, uh, within sort of market Especially considering, uh, the amount of time it's passed Uh, but the longs I think are all all about dried up, uh, the ones closer to sort of, uh Current sort of price within here Every sort of longs out of the market. So I think upwards of movement introducing longs into this sort of, uh, current sort of spheres Uh, what, uh, timeframe you recommend to create market bias, uh, depends on Uh, depends on, uh, the How long you want to go for If you're a scalper, I mean, you can trade, trade as low as you can If you're sort of day trading 15 minutes It's nice if you're sort of looking for, uh, daily biases, uh, for your 15 minutes trades a one hour chart, uh, if you're So, I mean, it is the timeframes in terms of looking at, you know, I'd recommend in order of going out is, uh, Is look at how you start out the one year You've got 12 months Three months, which is a quarter And you've got a monthly chart And it's understanding weekly Daily then and this is even prior to actually entering into a trade Because this is where your larger trader is and this is where understanding Longer term pictures instead of looking in, uh, at the dealer and for intraday is that, uh, I mean one hour leads Leads the 15 minute The 15 minute Part is usually where most people, most people trade it to where you can get like a lot of information And I think it's one of the better better timeframes And if you want to go lower, you probably go want to go down to three minutes If it's sort of, uh, if it's sort of tradable Because there are some charts and if I go over to like icp and this is not tradable Three minutes is not tradable. It's uh one minutes is abysmal. It's not tradable as you can see This 15 minutes is just about tradable and even I would argue at this area here These are not tradable time frame Not a tradable time frame just about a tradable time frame Uh, so it's it's understanding Yeah, you want to go lower go as low as you possibly can to to a tradable time frame Like one hour four hours for this seems like the lowest time frame you can feasibly manage without losing Or without sort of uh going into any untradable sort of Untradable time frame And even within a dot as you can see some areas here where it gets blocky It's sort of cases where you might avoid and you can even go lower and you can see okay You get really blocky and this this becomes untradable So you now you know, okay, that's four hours seems like the lowest time frames that feasibly tradable for me So this is trying to just go to the lowest time frame that you can manage and if you can't manage If it doesn't look if it doesn't look tradable just don't force any information I mean for Bitcoin you can go 15 minutes tradable one minute is tradable I mean three minutes tradable one minute is tradable. I mean, it's a lot of buyer variety in terms of candle wise So this is just understanding that you can just eyeball things. It's just like Do you have a variety of candles? Yeah, cool. I do I do is is there Are you dealing with spread issues on those time frames? No, I'm not Then it's tradable And most all coins can't can't do low time frames just as a product of not having enough liquidity period Uh crude oil interesting. Why is it interesting october? That's why Do you remember? 20 Uh, yeah, October season the uh pretty pretty so bad Yes, we do only two years. Oh come on man. Come on. Come on. Only two years Only two years data, so not much to go on for seasonality, but uh in terms of two years It's such a short sample size. Uh, it's it starts it's 50-50 So like I said, it's it's not information. It's non-information basically and this is why you want loads of data points And then that's why I say oh if you can get historic data Without paying for it. You oh you're living life Uh But that's not how life works, but as you can see we're trading uh oil and into sort of this area here, uh Coming in just falling shy of Equilibrium of this bar trading sure, but we're trading between here could present a nice little consolidation area Why would it control the end? It's just sort of try a print off lag if it goes high It would uh if it goes high, uh, we're probably looking at a nice little stop run Of this previous level here to drop or we just drop That's sort of two things you can Oil generally I think it will normally want to go down I know that's a lot of word string salads There we go Oh gee, there's there's your resistance for crude oil I get that Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do It's like seems pretty steep but 71 was this uh support On like especially on the day that I mean you probably have a nice intraday support somewhere around 84, but Uh, we might see a long term slide was hopefully To 71 if anything I doubt we go to 71, but you know what fingers cross What what what Man can pray Man can pray, but seasonally it's pretty sort of a nice season to pray for downfall as you can see this is a nice set of consolidation, a nice set of blue here so we already treat this as a resistor. This here in terms of trap we're seeing a lot of trapped here so that if you can climb up back into this bar start consolidating and just then then drop I think or consolidate spike run the stops on this candle will be the most satisfying I think see that now we have sort of other lines it's sort of oh yeah that makes sense now yeah I can I can see it without these lines but you guys need lines as a cocaddox sorry bad joke they're already hitting into 50% which is nice probably overhanging into this territory we'll see where our bid so I think we're starting to bid slowly starting to bid into this more closer I go we'll change this to session that's like three days worth of data but as you can see we're targeting these tops slowly entering into and thickening into these walls here see if these holes and you can see the new shorts are entering in uh not too much liquidations as the liquidations went off here so we'll see that sort of new shorts entering into the market which is what we want uh if we're idealizing a potential long scenario uh out of this at least uh for the short term run and spots sort of try degrees with us see see so much easier to see out here this is do you just buy this like they didn't support here they supported here everyone sold here massive massive sort of effort why are Americans so scared of the effort I don't understand I just have school shootings I mean come on it's just a word I don't know I don't know but you can see a lot of selling you know it's just very much all of this is just mountains and mountains of people just fearful and just induced uh induced sellers or or faithful sellers however you want to call them so generally not too many points other than thickening of this or not too many intermediate intermediate points we can take uh from spot in terms of the numbers other than uh the 1900 which is all I think all about gone I think these guys are no longer with us maybe the rest in peace as you can see they slide into that but oh they remove that which is interesting get into that see if they want to read it down more again not too much liquidations but at the same time some liquidations coming in uh into the market it's into the top of this so if anything this is a decent point we can call to try and uh reverse awful so nice we can create a nice little high every sort of extend the high spike it up 10 o'clock comes we hit a nice little 10 o'clock high here run the stops here on maybe here if you're greedy uh but mostly here I mean this was in a sort of marking nose this would have been another consolidation of another congestion zone the area here and you can just eyeball these this is an area where you have very small bars or bars and hide each other they're like oh yeah like an orgy I can say words that you can say on the public's indicator tv but generally we're trying to be long biased today I like just a nice little kiss here if we're going short we have to break uh London have to break the London pretty aggressively then pull pull down so it all have to be very aggressive on the day I doubt we have that much steam to pull it down especially considering most this area is sort of short and a lot of cells so it would make no sense in terms of uh managing books to try and go down here uh copium copium copium look at where we are with our sort of support lines I see where we've pretty much got what we wanted out yesterday as you can see we said this cold it hails retest decides ah you know what forget about that let's go down now usually solve uh makeup of these bars and it's pretty pretty much everywhere you can say and we've got some split here and you can see when we decide to hold this area after this sort of larger area of selling there you go there's our little key that we held off of uh this bar just pretty much nearly ended even in terms of uh bike link uh and we can't even look at that as you can see so I mean but that is they went a long up they went short down decided that yeah what are you gonna do interesting enough and they're coming back down they're still sort of holding this area so I'll only see if they just just decided to uh introduce shorts to run them uh it'll be nice to say hopefully that comes out uh look at your theorem since we've it's not broken anymore I didn't break it today as I did yesterday as I do every other day uh and this is another reason why I don't like theorems if you sort of drop the other things out as you can see these it just has a lot of noise surrounding a lot of sort of uh chatter like like imagine you're in a forum and you just have a bunch of trolls just uh just like trying to whisper in your ear this is what that is it's just it's just irritant uh so it just just makes for an unpleasant experience especially if you're trying to just trying to find out uh where the actual walls are that's where you might have to introduce like a lot more noise than you have to which starts to uh starts to sort of get there but it's just like uh improves it but at the same time you'll have to go in and uh run everything out and get make sure you have no smoothing uh and then this on point five I believe it's actually some point it's on one it's on one tick uh so it's every sort of uh tick is one price probably point five will make these walls appear further away but at the same time introduces to uh a lot especially if you start zooming out these just start condenses together and just creates rotisserie but when you get these walls here the these are nice ringers that's what you're looking for but and you see once I introduce that noise back in and this is why you have to sort of play with that cut off uh this just comes comes up if I reduce it you can see it's very faint so you might not see it comes in goes out but for a theorem I think we're already at our support area for at least for today you can see this entire area is just short it's just very much image I'm sorry but it's very short uh it's it's sort of and you can see it's a nice little shelf and we like shelves like volume shelves and the reason why we like them they have a large point and all it means is they went fishing and they reeled it back in because uh they got what they want and they were introducing too much uh too many lungs rather uh into the system so they said you know what this is where the dean of uh is um in the most amount of uh lungs will get as short as we'll get so let's pull it back up uh this just illustrates that here even if we're going up a lot of people are just still shorting even when price is going higher which is a nice little divergent diverging price which is always a lot of telling and this could be very aggressive and sort of bouncing you can sort of hold up uh this wall here as soon as we started clearing this away and price started moving away let's let's ignore the noise and try focusing on this cleaner cleaner sort of wall at 13 uh 13 20 for a theorem we have a small uh one here again small targets first but we have a sort of larger picture target at 13 20 at least uh if everything behaves it's just ugly okay and this is spot by the way and then this is the spots this ugly future is even ugly uh spots should like usually it's usually uh more often much better you can see like bitcoin has been getting worse and uh as little price has been getting low has been getting lower in terms of these these bids here they've been more controlling which is which is both a good and bad sign that means a lot more uh algos are in the market now than they were uh let's say a year ago that means there are more retail uh investors and the retail traders trading this uh which means hey uh it's probably here to stay but at the same time it's just introducing more noise like bookmap uh one year ago for bitcoin it was a lot a lot easier and a lot telling a lot more telling to trade and it's just like it's like something ah yeah you see it you can exploit it it's there's no noise there's nothing it's just like uh then they started like okay the algos started coming in they started seeping and like haha they started becoming noisy but uh it just means those things are getting serious now but lots of talking you can see the larger sort of long into this area here don't like that they even move this here on the earth wise upwards but they just sort of being counterproductive going down people are sort of buying interesting see if they will run these longs out or or let me stay in as you can see there are points here here and here uh someone's averaging down and even bids uh and then pulling up so probably uh smarter to say price might try shaking things up uh if anything shaking these out going get out of here or even get out of here coming to the vwap then pulling up but generally it does look good uh for what we're sort of saying and what we're sort of uh attributing to it you know uh in terms of there we go we stopped here i'm introducing some mix we already sort of uh got rid of those areas here didn't close off this entire sort of uh entire sort of a point here i don't know why you copied that there we go uh so closing it off we'll just spike it down a bit more uh then pull it up that's what that'll close off this entire sort of inefficiency uh in that bar with uh a couple of ticks depending on the exchange that's already closed uh do you know what i don't know that's interesting uh see we can probably have a look at some old claims we'll see what how they're doing in life that was eating and then we'll hit that daily level that we're looking at um that we talked about a while back uh in terms of you short it down to that daily level who broke this you can see tapped it once twice i said oh just exhaustion zone here i can't even exhaustion or congestion here just says oh these bars just trading inside this sort of uh trap liquidity here uh as you can see just looked at that trap liquidity and just said you know what that's my highest point let's go from this highest point back into this area here and this is sort of the area we said would would ideally want to long back into you can see it also coincides with the previous sort of area sort of highest liquidity point manukin of even uh said i mean this bar but this bar was around here as you can see uh that's where we had the volume come back in at the same time this is where the initial sort of spike down was so that i think was taking out liquidity volume was introduced back at the same area here i didn't even have to look at that it was not the start but generally holding uh which is nice uh it's always interesting uh we can remove this and then i think our resistance will be uh 12.7 uh about 0.6 higher no it's not too bad if we can reach this i mean even if we short throw it slightly at 0.7 i think round number here this is not too bad uh if we if we do something like this uh we sort of trade down from there we can see if it does that and so if it does that i'm not too too fast especially if you got long here generally four hours not it's not four hours on here it's not too sort of beard but zoom out to where we started and then where we ending uh we're happy there we go we started here just say oh yeah we're looking for 12 we've got 12 and nice little daily sort of resistance at 13.7 i think uh 12.7 comes to before 13 uh who'd have thought uh but we'll see if we can trade a past 0.7 before going down uh but think we can't for the first swing it's for the first swing we can't but maybe we get a nice little bar spike it and pull it down we'll see what happens uh it's anybody's game uh but generally not a bad uh position to be in uh long especially considering uh this is just the top of the previous sort of high comes in between the variance of of these two areas here nice little stop in the internal sort of range if we drop we'll probably see 11.4 we'll see if we can hold 11.4 i think uh this is just an area where you start entering into sort of uh position especially tomorrow we might get a swipe we might get this down here then pull it up we'll see what happens from with bitcoins uh sort of tendency but it's not a bad area to look at create a nice little second leg uh w here however you want to draw it polka dot uh polka dot traded at 6 oh even uh sixth round number this doesn't look nice if it's sort of pulling out or like this i think it's trying to run out liquidity at the most part see if it raids the 0.6 uh i mean or a retest point uh six even then pulls up uh sniper consolidation nice little sort of area we can say consolidation even trap pull it up hey bob young solana uh after sort of the entry so we said here pulls up it's this sides to come up here that's like in these blue lines always nice and it's considered a nice little area of we hit this decided to go fishing trapped liquidity next day decided to liquidate the early shorts into this system as you can see as soon as we hit that liquidation you see that sort of large spike here then we saw then we peeled away retest back into this took out the stops here a nice little raid on stops so if we hold this sort of hold this area here it generally looks wrong so definitely could be a make or break for solana especially i think that's true for more things at this current sort of price range because most things are like lined up to where the fact that trade they trade together and as they trade together they'll start looking similar in terms of where they are in the current sort of chart uh there um not much to say it's okay it's okay same thing looks looks like every other old coin nice little fair flag as long as we can spike down take your quiz see how we can easy uh uh easy spike this on the opposite side but i mean we're already really short on the day i mean really short on the week in terms of uh bitcoin wise so i think we create some mess in the intro day before swiping out create some more long to drive the price to go down but that's what we're expecting some sort of short-term we want high mid-term we want low longer term we want high again it's sort of painting pictures is what we're trying to do now we'll see if our painting becomes Mona Lisa if it becomes Mr Bean's interpretation of Mona Lisa we'll see what it then says we'll see if our ideas come into fruition but it might not often be the case haha any questions so far we've got about 15 minutes like did i decide to say no mass etc okay cool yeah we're sure again if you're looking at future data of a spot data you'll get different results uh i mean because different traders in there i don't know if i have a spot marked with this mark but generally you always just want to look at the one with the highest equity uh that's why i use binance there we go i have this mark uh it's been a while since i looked at this again probably since here uh but you can see how like i'm not even monitoring the charts and these just and it just plays with the size of range it's beautiful it's bootiful man uh yeah i think we talked about it uh i don't know if i have but yeah it's generally not too bad here again most it's already sort of ran out these errors here and i'm sort of uh shown that i'm also dropping i think these traders trade this high i'm not sure how how the retail traders trade anymore it's been so long i've traded like them but it's already sort of induced the sort of traders to break short i've come into here and i think uh they're not already out they're looking to be out soon so we'll see if we reel them back in and start pulling it higher uh so most things are at support okay now uh i know it's uh it's late good time to start looking bullish yeah it's a decent decent time to sort of uh shift bullish uh definitely considering how uh so with seasonality wise we go on speed up we'll see what speed is doing in terms of seasonal seasonal wise week of year change and i know i can get more data points out of this it's gone all the way to august again uh october uh as i said before it's october seasonally it's not too bad for for it we're in the 42 uh yeah we're in the 42 week of the year as you can see the next three weeks are generally good uh it's only after that it starts sort of shifting away from it but again data points never lie in terms of seasonal tendency as you can see uh the 39 week 39 weeks jesus uh what happens here i mean no you won't never know but seasonally wise and historically not too bad uh not too bad to sort of say okay generally was sort of even with our variance uh i mean it's the so the variance is higher and more to the higher point here there are some sort of outlier points where we have been really bad but as you can see the sort of average out in terms of saying your median uh is a positive change of anything uh for the uh week start to the weekend so i think we've sort of especially considering how we've we've come into a sort of a lower point here uh damn and that's damn man what happened i know what happened uh by them that's why i'm joking it's not political we're not a political channel we are we try hide it so i mean larger time frame wise got a nice little long long w and we've already created a nice little second leg within that sort of a larger w uh here and the reason why i dragged it out here and this becomes the midpoint is because it doesn't make sense that this would be a midpoint and this would be higher in some cases yes it does but i mean we're looking at higher time things we can just collate this entire move because it's moving in the same direction uh it's moving in one direction haha uh i'm so bad uh but yeah we're already sort of creating volume sort of over here we're seeing that seasonal tendency where we've dropped down we're currently average out here in terms of like looking at sort of economical factors that might affect this i mean we should be on the more bearish side but if we need to renew interest into uh for traders i think we do it now uh at least those i think uh if we start dropping any more traders become uh this that's the word i'm looking for uh yeah why don't i think of that word that's the word i was looking for and like i can't seem to find it but uh i think all of correct ustc oh you mean stocks you want to you want to renew us real estate holdings normally we don't look at that but i mean if you want it we can have this cool coin uh i was saying oh we're on weekly i would say uh looks pretty new not enough data points i mean we've got some we're looking at already uh ugly it looks ugly uh that's all i can say like just look at this it just looks ugly going for both but and what i mean by looks ugly i can i can tell just without even going actually you know what let's go to the happy candles look there we go uh you can tell the candles look ugly here uh it's it's sort of it's just thin here and a lot of pumps a lot of pumps and dumps on this uh and each side called slower so i'll probably pump it dump it uh this this is the variation here it's just it's just not it's not pretty enough to trade i mean if anything you're probably looking for something like this and if you're looking to trade it but probably coming back into here i think wait for it to develop price action it's going to be either going to be a pump or dump coin see they make enough so much new coins that i can't even keep up that's why just keep to the standard just bitcoin there is no second best and uh and just trade those because i like i like data you don't already know i like i like data i like data i eat data for breakfast i am in 2000s men old reference uh but yeah looks like they're trying to fit it out but i think looking at these bars uh generally you can say uh normally uh with how things are uh and seeing these time and time again this normally goes higher it goes higher we're on the risk of spiking at 12 and 12 we drop so that's the only sort of risk it's just this becomes a very short lived uh sort of a climb higher and just becomes the second leg where we just run out the higher sort of liquidity so i i'm interested to see how high the goal to target this liquidity points but uh we'll see uh generally speaking that's what we're looking for today and i think i can cut it here uh i already run this sort of stream dry uh any questions any final questions we've got about seven minutes so before we leave off for today i pack my suitcases and i go i go buy some cigarettes and milk and i never come back like your father and his father before him i don't know it looks interesting oh god damn since it fell out this sort of area here it's just been it's how like a nice and weekly sort of stuff see see if it uh does anything interesting here i would be uh i would be looking at it and just saying because it's it's really low it's at a very historical point here in terms of low wise it's it's uh it's pretty downtrodden i think if anything you don't have too much in terms of uh lead potential and and any way you have to stop there'll be a pretty tight relative to uh how much you can gain out of it if it if it does end up uh pulling out or pulling a pretty sort of we said 30 20 or the first sort of target of ethereum looks really close but i mean at the same time looks very far away and again 1450 1450 for a higher sort of target area and sort of like if you can sort of run that uh and again uh we'll probably might spike it low take out some stops uh let the let the flag traders uh trade this and say oh you know what there we go they'll trade short as soon as we break this we can go high we'll see if that comes out and i think we're on it there and uh if you if you joined in late remember just watching youtube uh just watch uh uh watching youtube in terms of go back replay it the bud will be up and rendered later on in terms of industry we are always on the same time at say seven thirty years yeah i don't know what time we start eight thirty years to uh yeah start pretty early uh make sure like be awake uh because it's it's just a nice little casual hour not nothing too serious uh it's always nice to sort of chill out and with that i will say good bye good good afternoon afternoon yeah good afternoon i never know how to end these uh peace

This one still had the original packaging and I sold this for $18 and the buyer page shipping. Let me make sure my screen sharing is working. Yes, it is. Okay. It was a bulk buy.

I bought all of their Longenberger items and she gave me one price and I don't remember what that one price was. So this hand came from the same sale as the mask that I showed you first. So I'm guessing I have about a dollar in it. It did have some issues. You can see here the foam is showing but people that are using these as props, you know, they don't really care. It's still function properly. I think yeah, I have a video that tells how it works and it shows basically just that the item is in working order and what exactly it does. I sold this for ten dollars and ten cents in the buyer paid shipping. So definitely major bread and butter. If it would have been in better condition, I could have gotten a lot more because vintage Halloween is definitely a great bolo. This item I sold to a subscriber, which is awesome. Thank you so much. She messaged me on my YouTube channel after she watched one of my unboxings for one of my jewelry videos and she asked me to list it and I listed it and I sent her the link and there were actually two or three of them and I wasn't sure which one she wanted.

I picked these up at a good will and It was like there was no box But it was a bag of Legos and they were in the individual box or it bags like this and there was one instructions manual so that is how I knew which set it went to and I think I sold three or four bags of our Russian income because the Heartland Grand Hotel is definitely a bolo But I'm not doing too shabby with the the individual bags This bag sold for twenty two dollars plus shipping The next item is this Barbie twist and turn stand This I sold for eleven dollars and eighty eight cents plus shipping and this was a bulk buy just a bunch of Barbie stuff I can't even remember so I didn't have much in this at all All right, this Shrek came from a thrift store I think I paid five for him and I sold him for twenty six dollars and forty cents plus shipping He's pretty big so the shipping was kind of high and he did have some dirt honestly Which I think it's just where he fell on to the ground at the thrift store, but I Didn't clean it.  I took a best offer on this one for twenty dollars and the buyer paid shipping Here are some of the mirrors from that I got it free garage sale if you guys haven't seen that video Go check out what I got free at this garage sale. They just wanted everything gone. So I sold two for twenty To the same person and they paid the shipping Typically what I do for shipping on most items dip as long as it's not a heavy item I'll do if you purchase two or more items. It's a flat rate of five dollars shipping So that applies to like my jewelry most of my clothing lighter weight items so The next item are these Stella and Dot earrings these came from the I bought it on eBay to sell on eBay bulk by 350 pounds and I think right here is where it says Stella and Dot I like the brand Stella and Dot to resell.

This is definitely a bread and butter item, but This came from a garage sale a while back I bought a big tote of Burger King McDonald's toys and They were already labeled the bags were labeled with like the year and where they were from So it was really easy to list them. This one. It took a while to sell. I I knew this was bread and butter I sold it for seven dollars plus shipping And you know, I didn't make a lot of money But the buyer sent me great feedback and they were really excited to have this item So that's kind of cool. The next item is this four-strand necklace and clip-on earrings.

I bought a a set and I took the paints out because I Don't know if it was incomplete. I can't remember why I did it, but I Was hoping it was gonna be like going it up speed a bread butter item, but that's okay. I still made money I think I paid five dollars for the whole set and I sold this for fifteen dollars plus shipping Okay, so these I picked up at a thrift store. I think there was like eight of them in the lot I cannot remember what the price was maybe eight dollars or twelve dollars and then I think I had a discount Acupon So I decided instead of selling them as a lot to sell them individually, which ended up It's paying off doing them individually I am having to wait longer for the items to sell But I think I've sold three or four of them and I took nope This sold for full asking price of twenty two dollars and the buyer paid the shipping The next item is this transformers game.

So I got $30 for us and The buyer paid the shipping So I still made money, but not as much as I'd hoped the next item is this casino chip Okay, so this is one of those where it just came with a bunch of stuff I got and I'm like, you know what I'm just gonna list it and see and I think I might have auctioned it first And I didn't get any bids so I just threw it up there for a low price And you know surprisingly it sold for four dollars and seventy four cents plus shipping Major bread and butter, but you guys I have like nothing in it and it's a learning experience You know some of those casino chips are big money The next item is this red lines hot wheels Poor poor poor condition. It's awful I can't believe it sold, but I sold it for five dollars and fifty cents and the buyer paid the shipping So I I don't understand it, but I thought I would try it So it sold kind of exciting The next item is this vintage batat surfer toss water toy and I thought this was gonna be a bolo But it ended up being a bread and butter and I was just happy to see it find a home It was sold for ten dollars and the buyer paid the shipping The next item is one of my cats meow village Ornaments and I took a best offer of eight dollars and ninety nine cents and the buyer paid shipping these aren't very big They're just little I Think I've posted the garage sale video where I got all of these I got Tons and I've listed quite a few and I've sold a few and I have so many to list And I'm not sure what I'm gonna do I may just start putting them in lots because I'm getting lazy So definitely will make more money selling them Individually, but I just don't know if I have the patience.

Welcome back. Hi, society. How are y'all doing today? Super excited to continue our family bank conversation. You know, we had just spoken about some tips on how to start your family bank. And now we are actually going to focus on the Rockefellers in this conversation and a separate conversation. We will talk about the Vanderbilt. All right. So let's get started. And of course, I will drop the links in the description so that we can follow along on your own. But let's talk about the Rockefellers because we did mention them in our previous video. So the Rockefeller family is one of the most well-known families in US history. You may have heard of institutions such as the Rockefeller Center, Rockefeller University, you know, or maybe the Rockefeller Foundation. So they have a very long, sustained legacy.  They're really more concerned about their last name, what type of impact they have left on this earth before they leave. And I think we all should be thinking like that no matter if we don't have billions of dollars or not. Right. What are we really doing for others? You know, we should be we should have the mindset of service. And so what is something that we have accomplished on earth that is going to, you know, do something for the better good right for humanity. And so I think that's just something we should all just start thinking about outside of just working every day to make money. Okay. So how did it all start? Wow, the Rockefeller fortune began when John D. Rockefeller, again, it all starts with one person. So this one person can be you founded the standard oil company in 1870. The company would then go on to control 90% of US refineries and pipelines. According to the World Scholarship Forum, and of course, you can click on these links, Rockefeller became the richest man in the world. And one of the first to make billions. Okay, the family fortune was valued at over $600 billion in today's dollars. And the standard oil company would later evolve into ExxonMobil. So we all know ExxonMobil. Okay. These are the broad corporations that everyone knows today. The Rockefellers also developed one of the first major business trust keywords business trust, which controlled Chase Manhattan Bank, now known as Chase Bank. We all know Chase Bank. Okay. So a lot of institutions that they started then are still here today. They've been on to establish themselves as industrialists and philanthropists throughout the US history. So yes, they are definitely well known globally. So of course, how is it going? You know, the Rockefellers family network is currently valued at $8.4 billion, which is spread amongst over 70 heirs. Now, in the previous video when we talked about their family bank is stated that their family bank includes between 150 to 200 people. So maybe the 150 to 200 people or maybe the children of some of these 70. Okay, very possible. That would be that's an excellent question, right? So maybe ask somebody from the Rockefellers. Why is there a disparity in those numbers there? But Rockefellers himself is said to have gifted over $500 million in charities. Okay. And again, he's a big philanthropist, and they have funded projects ranging from the arts, the conversation, healthcare, international trade. You know, I just like how they're very diverse. And they specialize in many things, not just one area. So I like that. So if you are also that diverse person, I know I am. I love many things, right?  I just think it's fun. You know, I think it's very fun.  That's the word I'm looking for the sampler, where you get to get a taste of different islands for like eight hours, you know, any like, oh, you know, actually I do like the Grand Cayman, I'm going to come back and fly here. You know, so I like that too, that's just kind of fits my style. All right. But actually, David Rockefeller, you know, lived to the age 101. And he amassed over $3.3 billion. And then his son David junior now chairs the family foundation. Okay. So let's get into the Rockefeller estate plan. This is what we came here today to discuss. The majority of the family fortune was held into trust. Notice that it's more than one. So yes, you can have more than one trust. Okay, they have the 1934 family trust. And then in 1952 trust managed by Chase Bank. Both of these trust hold interest in the descendants of the standard oil company, plus other investments such as real estate. So I love this again you can incorporate everything to put them into this trust. The fortune amassed was so large that the family founded Rockefeller financial services, which enlist professional money managers to oversee the holding company. So of course they had to do this when we're talking about billions of dollars. But just like we just stated in a previous video, you can do the same thing to maybe on a lower scale if need be. Hey, I may have some billionaires in my audience. So you may not have to do that. That's totally awesome. But if you are maybe a millionaire and not the billionaire, maybe your family, you know, the, your foundation or holding company I should say, maybe a little bit smaller. Okay. And then or if you're maybe a six figure maybe your financial services company may be a little bit smaller, or maybe you have to outsource individuals to create that team like we spoke about in a previous video to be able to do some of the same things that they have here. So whatever we have to do, let's go ahead and do that to make it work. Okay, so we're talking about the Rockefeller financial services entity. Okay, this entity has five separate arms, each of them overseeing various wealth building keyword their wealth building activities such as investments venture capital family business family liability insurance and risk management. I love the keyword wealth building activities, because just because he made all this amount of money right. And then also, you know, the banking industry he just didn't stop there he could have been like you know I'm good, you know, but he didn't stop there he was like hey look I can venture off into other things so what are some other wealth building activities that I can get into. Okay, so this is something that is ongoing for them and this is what I really want us to start looking at when it comes to our lives, you know what are those areas in our lives that are going to be ongoing I think we have been taught since birth really to just specialize in one thing and be good at that one thing only it's like who limited us like that you know I don't know about you but when I read the Bible and they talk about you know the you know the talents you know the man with the 10 talents the one the five the 10 talents, you know the person who had the one he went and hit it. And they gave it to the guy who had the 10 you know what I'm saying so if you have many talents, you need to use all of those talents you don't have to just do one thing good and that's it for your whole life you know that what they have taught us is a way for us to be excellent employees right at a company, so we'll never leave so we can fit that function and do it well, you know for people like the Rockefellers to be successful in what they do, and I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with that strategy, if that works for you, but I want us to think big, just like the Rockefellers okay because this is very impressive here. So, if you are great at many things figure out how to do them all well if you need to get assistance in order to have help with that like they needed assistance right they're very talented very skilled, however, they still had to solicit assistance. You need to do that as well too. Okay, so you can therefore create more wealth building activities for you and your family for you and your heirs. Okay, so again going back into the first one was investments and investments can cover so much you know the stock market now crypto do not shy away from crypto. The whole language before on crypto was. Oh my gosh it's so bad it's so evil is money laundering assistance that it never was those things of course you're always going to have a bad element to anything right. But it was never those things but they just didn't want you in crypto at that time now that everything that they needed to put in place behind the scenes is in place. Now their communication about crypto their language towards crypto is more accepting is more welcoming is more like hey yes you need to get into it this is something for you because why they're about to roll out the CBD sees that they need for you to sign up for they need your buy in to participate in that system. Okay, so that's investments and venture capital this is really good to you know maybe you want to invest in some companies again. Right now we are in the greatest world transfer of our lifetime we're also in the great reset. And so maybe I should say the GR I don't know if I can say that online. But I don't know why because it's everywhere online okay and is they talk about it very openly so I don't think that's a bad word, but we are definitely in this particular GR.   And I think it's okay to be able to fulfill this new prophecy, if you will, for the people who are doing this for what's to come because it's going to look completely different as day and night by the year 2030 from what you see today. It's going to be one of these people who are just like, Oh, it's always been this way. It's always going to be this way. You know, we've had a 401 401k for a minute, and it's always looked this way. We've always been able to buy a house and have home ownership. It's always going to be this way. We've always had access to clean water. It's always going to be this way. I need for you to start thinking ahead, be futuristic, see what's being created to see what is coming. Okay, there's many laws that's coming down a pipeline really they're already here. I mean, seriously, they're already here. And so we'll talk about that as we continue with our videos. Again, family businesses. This is again, again, being your own bank, you can start to invest in family businesses.  Okay, so guess what they don't have to go to anyone else to give them permission or give them a yay or nay if they're going to invest in them, you can actually invest in them how amazing is that to be able to invest, you know, and your children and your nephews and your cousins, you know. And for their future, I think that's, I think it's wonderful. And then also the family liability insurance. Okay, insurance, you know, this is an insurance pays. So we're really big on that. And then risk management. This is something that I think a lot of people just don't even consider. Many people just see all the good things, you know, but they don't really consider the risk about any action that they take and because of the Rockefellers have such a massive wealth they have to consider the risk they have to, because again, this is a family bank so it's more than just one person, you know, who's on the line here. So again, they're thinking about an empire like 100 years from now, not just, you know, this year. Okay, and that's how we need to be to, you know, I know that when we were younger they would always ask you about your five year plan. But the Rockefellers are not talking about five year plans. Okay, I'm sorry to say this for peons and for employees. But that's just what it is. You know, these individuals are talking about 100 year plans. Okay. So this is what we need to be talking about to and how will you even be able to discuss 100 year plan, unless you know where the world is headed in 100 years. So this is why it's going to require more effort on your part. You can't sit back in place of play sports or watch sports or play games or just go on concerts and travel and all this stuff or whatever as fun as those things are that they have us trapped in. Right. You have to do those things to like how we talked about in a previous video, you can still go on vacation if you are doing business as well right now as the tax write off we need to be smart and wise like these individuals here. So if you are thinking about this, if you truly care about your family's future. Alright, so let's keep going. The Rockefeller method of the state planning has exceeded for over six generations. And if anyone has listened to any of my insurance presentations we talk about the third generational curse right as in the Bible and I also have it to when it comes to the Asian community as well. And there's is the fourth generational curse with them. Okay, but basically what we're talking about in the Bible. Or any either one it doesn't matter really it's that first generation, they have come from nothing. And they want a better life. So they are the hardest working people you will see working up from sun up to sundown have the best customer service. They are on it with their financials. They are the success stories. They are who you want everyone to model after. All right, they've had their children their children may even be participating with them and their family stores on their family farm. Right. They see the struggles that their parents have gone through in order to amass the fortune that they have. And guess what they are the recipients of it now. So, you know, sometimes like I just said, sometimes they will go into the family business sometimes they don't they may feel like is beneath them or they're just not interested in it. And so with the wealth that they have their dwindling that well so by the third generation is shirtless shirtless right there having to start from ground zero again. And guess what the Rockefeller said no to that plan. And so they actually created their family trust, you know their dynasty trust so that way they don't have that problem they make sure everyone is on board with their Constitution and this is what it says here. They're able to do this by carefully having a wonderful family Constitution, the key word here with irrevocable trust so you just can have, you know, some cousin come up and say hey I want to change this this this net. No, no, no, it doesn't work like that. Okay. In addition to family ensure that the trust remain well funded using the proceeds of life insurance policies for each passing family member. You know, this is something that sometimes I feel we don't want to talk about in our community which is death. And we always say, what is let's always guarantee death and taxes, right. And we want to say tax guarantee with some people rather be homeless and pay taxes you know what I mean so the only thing that's really guaranteed is death. And so since we know that that's guaranteed. It's like why not use that as a wealth building opportunity for your family. You know it's not more of it to talk about these things to me it's a beautiful thing to be able to talk about a full generation to show your appreciation to show your love I always say that insurance is love, because it's something. Most times that you're not able to tap into, but you're leaving it for those that you love you don't want them starting off with zero every generation, we have to get out of that negative cycle because you know once you do something repetitively over so many times, it just becomes a part of your character it becomes of who you are. And sadly that has become a part of who our families are of what are who our last names are, and we're just passing these bad traditions down. And we have to it just takes one person just like the Rockefeller just takes one person to say no to that plan. And I don't know about you but I'm not with that plan. And so my thing is I want you or those who are interested and not being a part of that plan to start your journey into life insurance. I know I was reading power now mix. And Dr Claude Anderson who's the author of power now makes a wonderful author, who's very passionate about the black community, one of our living legends absolutely respect him love him. And the Ford I believe of the book is stated that one way the black community has been kept out of well is due to not having access to life insurance policies, because that's another video that I've already covered about our history or complicated history with life insurance policies okay or we're just life insurance in general. And so now there's no excuse you have access to life insurance. Okay. So now it's your responsibility to go ahead and put that in place. So that way you're not locked out from creating generational wealth. So of course, a mutual is here to help you to be able to do that. Now we're going to skip the Vanderbilt's here because we're just covering the Rockefellers at this time. Okay, because their story is not so positive so I want to show you the downfalls as well we want to cover the good bad and ugly, right. I'm just going to talk about, see a story of success and a tell of caution. But going back to the success of the Rockefellers. The Rockefeller succeeded by having a strong essential family constitution, plus several, you can have more than one several irrevocable trust that cannot be touched, nor reverse that is so important and they understood that that's what we were talking about generations ago. See, again, they're very forward thinking people they know that the world does not say the same now sometimes people say yes, it's a circle so eventually it's going to come back we've seen it with the fashion right. So maybe one era had bell bottoms and then we go through all these other different fashions and then we come right back to the bottom so I'm not saying that, you know it's not cyclical right but but they know that things do change, you know, our attitude toward a lot of maybe systems or anything everything changes however they know what works, and they're very conservative they're very, they're very classic so they're like hey look we're going to continue to do this and I have to admit what they're doing is working. Okay, so I know everyone's trying to try to 50 million different ways to do what they want to do. But you know why, you know, try to fix something that's not broke, and clearly what they are doing has worked for over six generations. They're all still billionaires, they're not shirtless to shirtless so this is definitely a great case study to review, and definitely read this on your own time because you may be seeing things that I didn't see and if you do, please put those in the comments. Okay, I would love to see that and I'm sure other people love to see that as well. In addition they essentially created a business devoted to the management of their families financial affairs and ventures. Again, this is amazing, starting to think of your family as a business. Alright, and when I think of the family constitution to me this kind of like a business plan. And so of course, again they hired an outside firm to be able to manage your family's financial affairs and ventures. These elements have helped to ensure that generational wealth is preserved in the long run. Okay, so we're not going to talk about the Vanderbilt's on this one. All right, but control your own outcomes through a state planning yes, the EP estate planning which many people do not do and it's very sad that people pass away including celebrities including people with high net worth. Who is that we just read about was that a Rita Franklin, I think we just read about where they finally finalized the case because the son found a will that was in the cushions of a couch to have a will there something is so important and the cushions of a couch. So that's very interesting and very questionable but hey whatever it was in a couch. Okay, they did find something and so that's not where you want, want it to be for the people that you love you don't want to have to send them through probate. And they're already sad and mourning the loss of your life. And they're stressed behind that you don't want them to have to be stressed financially, you know, it's very taxing having to go through litigation. There's a lot of assets on the line, you know, and you don't want to have families being broken up because of that. Again, what I respect about the Rockefellers is that everyone knows what is their role, you know what's the role of the family what's to come, you know, what's expected of them. And even if they had certain items that they had to abide by, I'm just saying this because I don't know what's what their rules are. But let's just say they stated hey you have to, you know, get buried, right. Before you have a child, in order to get X amount of dollars well if they didn't do it that way.  The entire family understands this so they have to abide by those principles to keep it fair, right. So I just think is very amazing how they have everything set up. So then let's continue here and you have to have the state plan and of course legal shield we can help you with that just for 2995 very easy to do you don't have to be a multimillionaire right or pay millions of dollars in order to get your state documents the order we will take care that for you with your will, your power of attorney for health care and your power of attorney for finance, we can get that started for you this week.

Alright, and then of course am usual we can always assist you with your life insurance policies. So I'm very excited again right here just goes back into the documentation for the for your state plans, things that you will need. All right. So when we have another another video, please go through all the videos that we have. They're really great we have one about the will. And you know this is something that's very important to you this is your last, you know, testament, you know if you will. How you want to be remember it so we have a really great video on things that you need to seriously think about your life and get in place now. Okay, so things are in order. Not very funeral, but for all of your assets that you're leaving to the next generation. And when I tell you right now, again, is the greatest transfer of wealth. Please make sure you have everything documented, or else your children will not receive your assets, it will go back to the state. Okay, and this is not the time for your children not to have ownership and property, or in other assets that you will not receive because again the GR is happening right now. And the goal that is being restated over and over again is that you will own nothing and be happy. So they are taking ownership off the table for your ears they've already made that decision for you. You have to make the decision that no, I say no to that. And I want my heirs to be owners, I want them to have generational wealth, and that all starts with what you decide to do today. Now this right here is pretty awesome. It says, because our wealth was immense these families likely took advantage of sophisticated estate planning and tax strategies to preserve their wealth as much as possible so they're letting you know kind of like there's there's one estate company for the regular people and then there's a sophisticated one, you know, for the echelon right same with the tax strategies so. But this is because transferring wealth in the US is highly taxed. And it is, it is very highly taxed. So there are several strategies to protect your family from certain taxes again on your own time definitely click these links to research this. So your family from certain taxes such as estate tax, give tax this is perfect because it's a holiday time right now inheritance tax, and the generation skipping transfer attacks. Oh, this is nice. Okay, definitely read that one. The use of a dynasty trust. I love that word dynasty. Okay, that used to be a soap opera I think back in a day. I'm telling my age there but that used to be a soap opera okay. But yes, the use of a dynasty trust is just one of the many strategies available through estate planning.

Hi everybody it's Sam at Mixed Up Craft, thank you for watching my tutorial today. I'm going to be showing you how to make this pyramid card or pyramid fold card, I'm not sure what to call it yet. It's completely come about by accident because of a card blank that I purchased, the shape of it which I'll show you in a moment. But basically I have stuck two together and this will fit into a 6x6 envelope. Well this one's actually slightly bigger because these are like I said a pre-made but it would all make sense in a moment but then you open it up and inside you have obviously lots of room there to write a message but the idea is then that it stands up like this, like a pyramid and it can go any you know way that you want so if you want to have you know something written on it, I haven't finished this yet so I was starting to do it and now I know it's going to work I thought I'll just go straight into the tutorial so I'm going to show you how to get this shape because like I said the ones I've used are slightly bigger and then I'm going to go around and finish decorating all of this and tell you about the mats and the layers but I really like how it's come together I like how it all folds nice and flat and it fits in your envelope and I just like that you have so many sides to be able to really you know go crazy with it but mine is just going to be covered in butterflies so once you finish it once you see this finish it should look really good. Okay so these are all of the ones that I purchased now these were in a pack for a pound from a charity shop they actually came like this in the diamond shape with the score line already on them they had no writing on them I don't know where they've come from but um yeah they you know they were all ready to go so I had them all and I thought I want to you know make a card with them I just thought that was just a little bit boring just having a you know a standard triangle card so I've had to play around with them now these ones here as I said they're slightly bigger and these ones are six and a half you know so I thought they're I will do a tutorial where you can make it from six by six because I think that would be better or to be fair you can do it as long as the triangle has equal sides okay so any size really you want but your triangle must have equal sides so I'm going to work on a six by six so I have gone ahead here and I've got a six by six card blank okay so make sure that all the sides are six by six because some shops if although it will say six by six on it it might be five and seven eights by five and three quarters or just slightly shy of it so please make sure you check your sides of your card blank first otherwise if you go to cut your mats and layers and then you stick them down they will be slightly too big and that's because that you didn't start with a six by six card blank and the reason I'm saying that is because some of the ones that I've purchased from well-known UK retailers are saying they're six by six and they are smaller so I've already sent an email to those companies because I wasn't very happy when I purchased 50 of them and yeah you can imagine anyway so this is your six by six card blank you want to have your fold at the top and along the bottom you want to mark the halfway mark so it will be at this point you will also see if yours is exactly six inches but like I said any once you know how to do it as long as all three sides are the same it'll be okay so three inches at the bottom three inches at the top and this is what you will do to you know whatever you say you use them five by five you want to mark the halfway point at the top and the bottom and then you want to draw a line through the middle so I'm doing this to show you how you can make this in any size you want okay so just put a faint pencil mark through there now because I know that this folded line here is six inches in order for me to get the same side on my other two sides of the triangle I've got my six inch marker here you want to line up the top of your ruler and make sure that the six inches comes in line with that pencil mark and that is right up to the top there so just spend a bit of time making sure you get it completely lined up and then you want to draw a pencil mark okay and then now I can just go from that pencil bottom of that pencil all the way up to the corner so now I know that I've got six inches six inches and six inches if straight away you know that you've got a six by six card blank all you actually need to do is come up from the bottom three quarters of an inch so just do that pencil mark just come up three quarters of an inch you don't need to do all of that just put across there next you're going to grab your trimmer or scissors and you want to cut it so I'm going to line this up in my trimmer making sure that I've got the top there the pencil line is running nice and straight and then I'm just going to trim like so and then again go to the other side like so so now I have a equal side triangle and you want to do that twice so there's one that I done earlier so now I have those two so the way that I've just done that no matter what size you're using so if you've got an eight by eight card blank you will do that same method with that size as well just to make sure your three sides are the same next what you're going to do is fold one um is stick one over the top just like so okay so I'm going to add some glue onto the back here okay so now you will have this shape so you can fold over any size you want mine's going to be opening up from the left so I'm going to fold the right hand side down and then that one over the top and they will open okay so that's what you will have now at the minute it's all really bouncy this isn't a particularly heavy card stock the one I've used is I think about 300 or 260 kind of it is a heavier weight so I would recommend that you do a heavier weight because the weight of the card is what kind of holds it in its shape so just make sure little tip that you burnish again all of your sides just so that it's always you know wanting to go towards itself because already now once we put the mats and layers down but it's it's staying in that shape which is what you want so now for the mats and the layers you want two pieces so you know on my one I've got my first mat is this gold card stock and then the one on top is this kind of lattice um foiled gold as well I'll show you the paper pack in a moment so imagine this is the gold this is the largest mat the same process but this time you want a piece of card stock that is five and a half by by four and seven eighths of an inch okay along the longer side you want to find the halfway marker again so this is five and a half so you're going to mark at two and three quarters okay and again along the top two and three quarters do a pencil mark all the way through the line and then again whatever your length is there so it's five and a half you're going to bring this down and make sure you've got the five and a half right down there it's a little bit shy but it's just there and do a pencil mark so because you're working with angles it's always a little bit more um I guess concentration is needed but you're just taking it looks like hardly anything you know you're almost going to the bottom but I've come up about quarter of an inch there from the bottom again trim that okay and you are going to want to do that six times if you want to have the same mat on all of your three sides here and three sides in the middle but you'll see now that that will fit perfectly inside if I flip it over so you haven't got the pencil mark you get a really nice even border okay so that's your mat then for your layer this is a piece that is five and a quarter by four and five eighths of an inch and you're going to do exactly the same again so along the five and a quarter side you're going to mark a pencil mark at two and five eighths and again at the top two and five eighths join them up and then come down five and a quarter in fact this one will join up perfectly so all you're doing here is you don't need to do the pencil right the way through the middle that one is actually going to give you three equal sides like so and then just cut that one out and still does come up a little bit from the bottom so and again now we've got our equal sided triangle and then that will go over the top there although that one seems a bit a little bit too big I'm going to take a little bit off that one I think you can afford to go off a little bit so on one of the sides I'm going to take about one eighth of an inch there we go you just want to make sure you get a nice border from the one below like so and again you want to do that however many times I actually done this one five times because the one in the middle I had in white so although I cut six of them still I done five in the color and then I done the middle one white where I done my message okay so that's what you want to have there so get that all stuck down and then that will bring you to this point okay so you can see what I mean they're the one in the middle I've done the white and I just used some silver although I've got gold gold and silver work nicely together so I've done a silver embossed sentiment there and that was from stamping up now the papers are from this what I'm calling vintage first edition paper pack it's botanical notes the reason I'm saying vintage it is I thought it was older than what it said but it's 2014 and I picked it up the other day in WH Smith in their clearance section and I did share that on my what did I get video so that's the one that I'm using there so when you go to do your decoration you want to bear in mind that this will fit in your envelopes you've got all this space free but you can only really go over the edges on the top one and on the back one the one inside you have to obviously be aware that it is going to be going inside so you wouldn't want to for example have a butterfly when it's open although it'll look nice coming right over because when you go to close it that butterfly is going to get completely squashed so I've gone over the edge with that one because that is my top now I'm not putting any message on the outside I'm just going to have it covered in butterflies and then that person would just open the inside and then straight away it just stands up perfectly because there's a lot of weight on it now so I'm going to lay this down I'm going to start doing my butterflies here now I fussy cut all these from one of the sheets they are pearlized you can probably see the shine on them there they're absolutely gorgeous so I'm just going to put the video on high speed and I'm going to get this all decorated so you can see how I've done it okay so I've decorated all of mine and then when you open it just make sure that none of your butterflies go over this side here so that none of them get all buckled and folded where they shouldn't and then I just finished it with some more butterflies in the middle there go ahead and reburnish it as well you know along there before you put it in the envelope it just means that by the time although if it's sat in an envelope it will be fine but the weight on this now these naturally want to close so when you do stand it up you can just push them in there I think my mats a little bit there we go I think it looks great really like this really unusual it's really decorative as well so you know that's why I've kind of left nothing on it because sometimes it's nice I think people to keep their cards out maybe even past the birthday a little bit longer so this one is just nice and you know just a nice decorative piece so it can also be a tent you could open that up even more and you know you could change this into a tent theme or something because it's obviously that style but I really like this card so you can have it anyway that you want the idea is that it kind of does go up together like that but yeah really like this guys so very unusual very different today but I wanted to use those triangular card blanks that I had and this is what I've come up with so um yeah I'm loving this really pleased with it so I hope you've enjoyed it I hope you give it a go please share anything that you make over on mixed up crafters if you like this tutorial give me a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel so you get to see more thanks for watching bye
