I would like very much to thank ILO for hosting this event and also for the participation of UNCTAD. We and myself are from WIDA in Helsinki. WIDA has quite a long name. It stands for the World Institute for Development Economics Research and it is part of the United Nations University. WIDA was created nearly 30 years ago. We celebrate our 30th anniversary in 2015. The name WIDA itself actually comes from Amarchya Sen. We owe Amarchya this wonderful name because Amarchya was on the founding mission of WIDA and of course the issues of poverty, inequality and human development have been in our DNA as a research institute for 30 years. As indeed have these issues been of great concern to ILO and to UNCTAD. So today to discuss the issues we have a very distinguished panel. We have Isabel Waters. Isabel is director of social protection at ILO. She was previously director of the global social justice program in Joe Stiglett's initiative for policy dialogue at Columbia University. She was earlier an associate director of policy and strategy in UNICEF and a senior advisor in UNDESSA. To my right is Richard Cosall Wright. Richard is director of the Globalization and Development Strategies Division in UNCTAD. He's had extensive experience in the UN both in New York and Geneva. Richard is a Cambridge economist. He's published extensively including a book called The Resistible Rise of Market Fundamentalism which I think is an excellent title with Paul Raymore as well as other work. And then on our very far right, although not far right politically, is our good friend Andrea Cornir. Andrea is professor at the University of Florence. He's been professor of development economics since 2000. He's held positions, visiting positions at several universities including Clermont-Ferrand, Bavir, Cambridge, the European University Institute and Oxford. Andrea has many years of UN experience. I first met Andrea in the 1980s when we were working on adjustment with the human face with Francis Stewart and Richard Jolly. Andrea has also worked for CEPAL, the UN Economic Commission for Europe and so forth. But I especially remember Andrea from 1995 to 1999 when he was director of WIDER and my boss and when he recruited me for the first time into WIDER, which has been a wonderful experience for me ever since. I'm by the way deputy director and chief economist of WIDER. So I think you'll agree that we have a very good panel today to debate with you and we would like your active engagement. The issues around inequality. We'll have a series of presentations first by Isabel, then by Richard and then by Andrea. Andrea will be very much speaking to some of the results from his new book for WIDER, which is on the Latin American experience and equality. It's over there as you came in the door. OK, so without further ado, if I could introduce Isabel, we are by the way in this modern age of technology, videoing this meeting and also will be tweeting it. So as you make your bold statements, they will be preserved for some posterity at least. OK, thank you.


Welcome everybody to today's session, our next instalments in our online education series. If you can hear me loud and clear, could you type a Y in the chat box and you should be able to see a welcome screen to mail. We want traders to succeed. Okay, great stuff. Let's get going. First of all, as always, we're going to quickly review the disclaimer as we're all probably aware by now foreign exchange trading does carry a certain degree of risk. But as I say to you each week, you're helping to mitigate that risk by participating in these educational sessions. So just before we get started with today's content, for those of you who haven't been in the session with me before, my name is Patrick Munley. I am a fund manager, a mentor and a market commentator. I haven't always been involved in the markets. After graduating from university, I joined a city consulting firm. I subsequently left that firm and did a startup with a couple of guys from the business. And that business experienced some rapid growth. After four to five years, I exited the company where we merged with a business and I cashed in my shares. And then I decided to pursue my passion for markets. I'd always been interested in markets. I'd had pretty much a front row seat to the dot com boom and bust. I was in the consulting arena. I was a headhunter for technology startups. And so I'd really seen how people could make and lose a fortune in the markets pretty much overnight. And so I started to day trade the E-mini S&P futures. The market was predominantly trending north. I caught some lucky early breaks. And as is often the case, had some good success, made some solid gains, but that beginner's luck ran out and I quickly gave back those gains and then some. It was then that I decided I had to really make a conscious decision to either approach the markets and trading as I had done with other commercial endeavors and really get serious about it, or I'd walk away. And so I sought out a mentor myself, worked with him, and not just really on the technical aspects of trading. And this is very important and something I allude to continually and have done throughout these sessions. But more importantly, the mental game, because there's a finite amount of technical knowledge you really need to be able to trade the markets. But your ultimate success is really defined by your mental performance to my mind anyway. And that's something I worked on rigorously. And so by the end of 2007, going into 2008, I had a fully documented business and trade plan underpinned by a rigorous risk management strategy. And I really set about executing that plan. And since 2008, I have delivered positive annual returns. So year over year basis. I'm someone who has learned over time that the outcome of an independent trade or a single trade is really totally irrelevant to me. Because what I'm looking at is, is I'm looking at an extended series of outcomes to demonstrate my edge. So I don't know if the next trade I put on is going to be a winner or loser. And the great thing is, I don't need to know that to be successful. What I have to know is that do I have a definable edge in the market that's been back-tested and forward-tested? And if that's the case, then I have sufficient conviction to trade through any periods of drawdown, through to new equity highs. So like I say, profitable on an annual basis since 2008. In 2010, I started mentoring other traders who were struggling to turn a profit. I'm really working with guys who, from complete novices to some guys who had left the trading pits in Chicago and were making the move to the screens. Working with those guys to really develop and tighten up any trading plan that they did have. And then working around execution strategies and really also getting focused in on that mental aspect. Since 2013, I've been managing external investor capital through a managed account service that I run. And again, fortunately, that's been, on an annual basis, has delivered positive annual returns and continues to perform very well. So that really brings me up to today. I've pulled past six months. I have been a mentor, resident market expert, sorry, for Tick Mill, delivering daily market analysis and chart analysis. I'm also the head of trading and trader education for an online education firm called fxcareers.com, whereby we actually work with, bear with me one second guys, I just need to send off this little bit. Folks for the current fiscal year. Me one second. We're just going to hear the discussions. No formal decision has been made with the next rig review nearly two weeks away. A roger source to OPEC ministers agreeing to oil cut up one and a half million miles per day. Can't repeat that. Roger sourced his OPEC ministers agreeing in oil cuts. Sorry about that guys. Let's continue with me and just get the slide back up. I've lost the slides. Give me one second guys. Let me just find this. Okay, let's try that again. Sorry about that. Can you see my screen again with my LinkedIn profile on there? Why on the chat box if you can. Okay, so great. Like I say, that brings me up to today. So I provide market analysis for Tick Mill and I'm the head of trader education for a company called FX Chris, whereby we work with traders developing them on from an education perspective and then working through to actually funding retail trading talents. But what I want to do now is just bring you to speed with respect to what I want to cover today, which is another trading strategy, a quite a well-known market phenomenon, but people struggle to trade this phenomenon profitably. And that's at the core of the trading strategy is the pin bar. Now, some of you may or may not be familiar with the pin bar. The pin bar takes its name from the character Pinocchio. Due to the tail or the nose of the candle prints on the charts, it's considered to be a signal of a false move. So where a bullish pin bar will have a long tail or a long nose, which is basically a move that's suggesting exhaustion in the market. So what we're seeing is that the market moves down to make new lows after opening. And then we ultimately close back at the highs of the candle. So that's a bullish pin bar, a bearish pin bar. Obviously we have the opposite effect whereby we open, we run much higher and then we get a sharp reversal and we close back towards the lows of the candle. So again, if we think back to some of the earlier education content that we covered with respect to the idea of the market is constantly seeking liquidity. So what it's trying to do is find supply and demand balances. What these candles represent is a supply or a demand imbalance. So with the bullish pin bar price opens for whatever data period you're using. For me, it's mainly the daily candle. So we open and then price moves much lower on the day. So we're moving significantly lower. Yet once we trade down to a certain level of demand in the market, the demand that exists at this level is outweighing the supply. And that's what causes this rapid reversal in price action. And then we close back up towards the highs of the day suggesting that's where the balance is between the buyers and the sellers. So the information we're getting from the bullish pin bar is that the buyers at this stage are over or the demand in the market is overwhelming the supply. Equally then with the bearish pin bar we open, we trade much higher on the day and then we see an intraday reversal that causes us to trade back down into levels close to or at where we opened or even below where we opened for an even stronger indication of reversal. And so again, what we're seeing there from a market perspective is that the day has opened, bids have come into the market and we moved up through various price levels seeking adequate supply. And what's happened is we've reached a certain level and there has been overwhelming supply. And that overwhelming supply takes prices back down into the opening range and potentially closing below where we open on the day. So from a price discovery perspective, what we're being told here by the market is that there's less likelihood of making new highs here because there is such overwhelming demand, such overwhelming supply. So what we're going to have to do is try to lower prices to find sufficient demand to generate the fuel for another run at those highs. So let's just take a look at how we can use the pin bar as a trading signal. So for a bullish pin bar when we close we enter, we can either enter on the close or we can enter just at the break of the candle and then we're going to place a stock just below the lower of the candle. So that allows a certain degree of risk that's logical and objective because we know from a supply and demand perspective with this bullish set up that there has been overwhelming demand at those lower levels. So from a risk reward perspective when we're thinking about this set up, we're going to use the break of the high to signal continuing demand and then we're going to put our protective stock just below the low of where we know there was overwhelming demand on the last test. Now again, incredibly important here as always, there is no strategy set up or signal that is going to deliver a winning trade every time. And like I said at the beginning, talking about my own trading, I've reached the stage where I really don't care about the outcome of the next trade. I don't care about the outcome of the next 10 trades. I care about the outcome or I care about my edge demonstrating itself over the next month, three months, six months. But what I know is that if I apply excellence in terms of my process, then those outcomes will ultimately take care of themselves. So this signal, this pin bar signal is just a signal generated by the market that suggests a higher probability of one outcome over another. Even if the pin bar is only successful as a signal, let's say four times out of 10, if you've got the right risk reward, and more often than not with these pin bars what we're looking for is two times our risk reward, then that strategy can be fantastically profitable. So you could really want to move away from the idea of focusing as you will often see documented all over the internet, this fantastically high win percentage. Because the win percentage is actually irrelevant. What you want is, what you want to be looking for is profit factor. So you want to be getting that 1.5, two times risk. Because then what that allows is, it allows for your strategy really to only be successful 40% of the time and you're still profitable. So it takes all the stress out of thinking about what's going to happen in this next trade.  That stress is gone once you accept or once you move to a probabilistic mindset. So once I accept that I only need to win four out of the next 10 trades to continue to demonstrate profitability, then the outcome of the next trade is neither here nor there. What I'm looking to do is get my signal and execute it flawlessly and then manage my trade according to my trading plan. So with the bearish pin bar we do the opposite. We get the signal, we enter on the break of the load of the candle getting some additional confirmation from the market that prices are moving in our favor or moving in a favorable fashion to the trade that we're putting on. And then again, where are we going to place a stop? Well, we're going to use a logical and objective level. We're not going to think, right, I can only risk 10 pounds or 100 pounds on this trade. So I can only risk just half the candle or anything like that. What we're going to do is we're going to think the logical, rational, objective perspective where we're going to place our stop. Well, above the high of the candle where we've witnessed on the last test overwhelming supply in the market. Does that make sense guys in terms of what the signal is, what we're looking for on the chart, the candle, the makeup of the candle, the DNA, and then how we're going to use that candle to execute a trade. Why in the chat box if you're awake and listening to this? Good stuff. Okay, right. Let's just move in. Here's a couple of things we're going to look at now with the pin bar, because what happens is once people see this pin bar, and this is where most traders come and start with this approach or this strategy, is that once you know what a pin bar is, you see them everywhere on the chart. And if you trade every pin bar, you will liquidate your account. Give them absolute fact. The pin bar in and of itself, whilst it is an excellent signal, you need some other confirming factors to make that signal profitable over time. Because if you just take every pin bar, like I say, you'll see them all over the charts now that you're aware of them. And it is a great signal, and you may see a streak of a lot of winning pin bars on the chart, and then just saying, right, the next one that comes up, I'm taking, that will be an error. Because streaks in terms of success of these patterns are well known. What we're looking to do is increase the probabilistic outcome of taking a pin bar as a trade. So one of the things that people do is, like I just said, is that people think that every pin bar is their next lottery ticket. Where in reality, what you've got to do is you've got to become quite picky about the ones you take. And you've got to learn to be able to differentiate between a strong signal and a weak signal. On the screen at the moment, we can see a couple of examples. Well, we've got two strong examples. Well, we've got three pin bar examples on the screen. Two of them meet the criteria of being a strong signal. The third one is weak and has a lower probability outcome. So in this first instance on the left hand side here, we have a candle, a bearish candle that closes at the lows.  So that shows that once again, we tested it into the lower range versus the prior days candle, and some buyers have emerged. And then on this following day where we get the pin bar, we break the two-day range, we seek lower prices, and then intraday, if these are daily candles, intraday, the buyers have stepped back in. Big demand could be a news event, whatever. But big demand has come into the market, and we close back within the prior range. So to me now, if I'm looking at a chart, where are the stops that are likely to be run at this point that will act as fuel for a move? Well, I would say that they're above the inside day candle. And as such, we'd be taking a trade there with the entry at the close of the candle or just a tick above the high. And then where logically do we want to fix our stops? Well, we know now just below the low of that big demand spike we saw. Then the next example, two bearish days, we close at the lows, testing the lows of the range. And once again, we break down through those lows, and then big demand comes into the market. And then we actually take out on the close the prior days high. Very bullish signal. So we're going to put our stops below the low of that demand spike. That's the rational, objective, logical place. Because price could test back down into that low, but because we've seen such a scale of demand there, we're going to bet that it's going to hold on the next test. But probabilistically, that's a fair assumption. We don't know, but probabilistically, fair assumption. And we're going to enter on the break for the highs. Now, let's look at the third example, because here's where you come unstuck. We get that bearish close, we get the bullish inside day, we open up, we trade down. And yeah, demand certainly comes into the market. We trade back up to retest the prior days low. But we are rejected, the sufficient supply there to mean that we close below the low of that prior day. So from a technical perspective again, in terms of closes, we're making, we're getting lower closes, and then we're getting lower highs. So technically, the trend to the downside is still pretty much intact. That makes sense. So it's important that we understand that not every pin bar is made equally, whether we're seeking to really identify the DNA of the candle, and we're working to develop the technical scorecards whereby we know that some pin bars offer a higher probability outcome than others. Okay. Now, one of the things that you, that is important to look for in a pin bar, in terms of suggesting, again, if we're working on that idea of overwhelming demand or overwhelming supply, the length of the tail. Because what does that tell us? Well, a couple of pieces of information from that. As we've traded down during the day, we've tested much lower prices. The scale of the demand that was put into the market meant that we've had to trade so much, we've traded quickly back through those prices, and tested back up towards the highs of the day. So what we're getting when we see that the bigger the tail, the bigger the demand shock or supply shock to the market. Okay. And then again, that idea closing back within the range of the previous candle adds extra confluence to the trade. And again, what we're always trying to do as traders is trying to build a case pretty much like a lawyer. We're looking for evidence in the market, and we're looking to put that evidence into a thesis that gives us a trading signal. So the more we can stack in our favor in terms of positives, technical positives for the trades, the higher our conviction is going to be in the trade. But again, as is the reality of trading, we can do everything right.  And it's important, incredibly important that we accept the risk when we put the trade on. Because what that's going to mean is that we're not going to be there sitting on our phone sweating every uptick and down tick. It means that we accept the risk. We put our trade on and we'll see what happens. Okay. Let's look at a bearish example. We can see here price moves up into a swing high. We get some selling, but we don't take out the prior days loads. So that gives us that bearish candle, and we get bulls retesting the highs. And then we get that upside breakout. And what happens?  Splakens into the market, puts back within the prior days range. We've run all the stops above the market. So the natural progression from this stage, given normal market conditions will be that we'll rotate lower to test demand at lower levels. And that's what happens. Now, what we've talked about so far is using the pin bar as a reversal signal. Okay. What we're going to talk about now is using the pin bar as a continuation scene. We go back to this prior slide. You can see that we had that big move up just prior to two candles prior to the one that I've highlighted. We've got that big bearish candle. So price is tested higher. Some sort of demand shock came into the market, but the trend, the overriding trend at that stage being to the downside, meant it would close back at the lows. And that's what we call a pin bar continuation setup. Okay. We'll look at another one that I've marked up here. You can see we're in a down trend. Price is moving down, testing lower levels, normal rotations.  It could be a news event again, some new material information came into the market, which meant that traders looked to cover their short positions quickly. We've got that spike higher. Lo and behold, the sellers were waiting and we close at the lows of the day. Now, in that instance, what we're seeking to do with the pin bar here is to use the pin bar as a signal of continuation within the trends. Okay. And we're going to trade in the direction of the pin bar and also in the direction of the trends. But as with all things, certainly in life, certainly in house something, it's a very common phrase, location, location, location. Same is true in trading. We've always got, we've always wanted to be thinking about our location because here, if we look at this chart, we have three continuation pin bars, which have occurred in an uptrend. But because of the location and that overhead resistance, the pin bars have failed. So what we want to be thinking about when we're looking at our pin bar setups is really a couple of things. We're looking at the DNA of the candle and then we're thinking about the location of the candle within the current price action. And we want to see that these candles with the tails we know are giving us better trading information because they suggest a bigger shock in terms of supply or demand has occurred in the market. The smaller candles within dominant trends tend to fail. And there is an additional strategy. We're not going to have time to cover it today, but you can actually play pin bar failures once you're able to identify trends and those also work. But for the purposes of today, what we're going to look at now is I'm going to walk you through some examples of the pin bar reversal strategy and the pin bar continuation strategy. Hopefully, you can see my charts on the screen at the moment. This goes to this euro chart here. Now, as with last week and hopefully you'll either have time to watch the video or you're in the session, I have a core template, a technical overlay for my charts. And it's premised around on the actual charts are these volume weighted average price bands and volume weighted average prices overlaid onto the candles. My candles are coloured not whether or not they're bearish or bullish on the day. This is a daily chart. All the charts I use are daily. Whether or not we close up or down on the day, it's whether or not we close above or below the near term volume weighted average price. Now, why do I use that? Well, what I know is that if we close above the near term volume weighted average price, and this is that I use a five period look back to give me and then to identify the near term money flow in the market. So, if we're closing above the volume weighted average price, that tells me that over the past five days, there have been more up ticks in the market than down ticks. Now, we can't use the volume weighted average prices you would do if we were using an exchange traded product like E-mini S&P futures or equities, but we can use it in terms of through our broker, whoever our broker is. In this instance, if you're using TickMill, what we're looking at is their data feed in terms of the amount of buyers they've had in an instrument versus the sellers. So, when we look back at the last five days, if my candle closes above the five period, what it's telling me is over the last five days, there have been more buyers in the market than there have been sellers. So, that's why I use this, that the volume weighted average price gives me a reliable read on money flow and then the volatility bands, these bigger bands you can see here above and below the market, they give me a statistical edge because what we know is that when we test up into the volatility resistance bands, these are two to three standard deviations away from the mean which is the 20-period lookback. From a statistical perspective, 80 to 90% of the time when we test these levels, price will pause. It's not necessarily going to reverse, but if we test these levels and sellers step into the market, then we've got a statistical edge in a mean reversion setup whereby we should test the central tendency, which is the 20-period here, and if we break through there, then we've got a high probability of testing the alternative side of the bands, which is the two to three standard deviation support or two to three standard deviation resistance. So, that's what I've got on my screen here. This bigger, thicker line running through gives me an idea, bearing my name, trading the daily charts. I want to be aware of the trend on the higher time frame and for me, the higher time frame is the monthly chart, and this tells me the volume weighted average price, what it's been doing on a monthly scale over the past five months has been more buying or selling pressure in the market. So, that's what we've got on the main screen here. I've also got a pin bar indicator. Now, as you're probably aware now, I have these indicators have been developed for me for specific settings that I want, so they're proprietary. You can separately acquire them, but I'm not here to tell you any cases. What I'm saying is that there are a bunch of pin bar indicators out there, so this isn't ending special. That's my point. So, I'm sure you can independently search the internet and you'll find a myriad of pin bar indicators. And again, I'm not suggesting that mine is the be all and end all. It just works for me because I've got specific settings I wanted in there. And one of the things it does for me is it allows me to identify the ratio of the body to tail. So, if we think about the candle, let's just blow one up here and you'll see exactly what I mean when you go here. So, with this candle here, what my indicator is telling me immediately, so I don't have to scour through and measure each candle, it's all done automatically for me, is it telling me that the body of this candle has a ratio to the tail that exceeds 2 to 1. I'm looking at a minimum of 2 to 1. Remember, we were saying that the bigger the tail, the higher probability the outcome is. For me, statistically going back through, backtesting thousands of these, a minimum requirement for me in terms of taking a trade is a 2 to 1 ratio. So, the indicator basically plots for me, automatically will pop up on the screen if I've got a pin bar that has a ratio of 2 to 1. Then all it does gives me specific trade levels, gives me an entry point, which is the close of the candle. For me, that's how I trade them. Some people prefer a bit more price information, premium in terms of playing the break of the candle, but I've found over time just trading the close is fine. I've got to stop just below the low of the candle because this candle is a little bit smaller, the X that marks the spot, the stop, sorry, is touching the end of the candle, but you can see here, I just use a few pits below the low of the candle basically. So, automatically plots that, then gives me one times my risk, which is the first green dot, and then two times my risk, which is the second green dot. So, as always, what I'm looking to do is once I put my position on, once the trade moves in my favor, one times my initial risk, I'm not going to let that trade come back and stop me out for a loss. It's just bad business. So, once the trade moves in my favor, one times my risk, I'm not going to allow that trade to turn into a loser. It worked from both a financial and a psychological capital perspective. You know, I don't want to see a trade running my favor, and then, lo and behold, it'll come back a few hours later, and I've taken a full hit on it, just bad business, and it's not good psychologically on an ongoing basis to see that happen. So, that's why I have that rule. So, once you trade, one times my risk, once the market has validated my position, by moving the amount I've risked in my favor, I'm going to take my risk off the table. And then I've got a risk-free position. It's either going to run to two times my risk, or it's going to move back and stop me out at break even. So, that's the basic rule that I'm applying here. So, that's the pin bar indicator. As most of you know, the momentum studies to the downside here on the lower panel, sorry, to the downside, are the RSI stochastic available on pretty much any platform. And then I have something called a psych indicator, fancy name really for something quite simple. It's an enhanced version really of the RSI, okay? It just has a few tweaks which make it more effective for me. It's colored, and the reason why I call it psych is that when this goes down through these levels and turns red, more often than not, counter trend traders will be going in the opposite direction. They'll be immediately trying to trade against this developing trend.  It's all done for me here. It's color coded. Again, proprietary indicators, they are available if at some point you wanted to try them out for yourselves. But there are other indicators out there that do pretty much the same thing. But this is just something that has worked for me over the past 15 years. And so it's all color coded, makes it nice and simple for me, because I want an easy life. So that's the technical setup of the chart. Now what I'm going to do is we're just going to walk through, let's go, we'll just take this last year, basically. This is the Eurodollar daily chart. And we're just going to look, first of all, I'm going to look at the reversal signal. Now, what for me qualifies as a Pinbar reversal? Because it is not just the Pinbar. I have a couple of other criteria I use. I want price to at least be up testing into this two to three standard deviation, or from a support perspective, testing two to three standard deviations. So that's important because that, as I've just mentioned, gives me a statistical edge. But also, it gives, more often than not, will give a good trade location, a good entry point. So I'm looking for a test of the two to three standard deviation. And all, if we don't quite make the two to three standard deviation, then I want the pinbar to be in the direction of the higher timeframe trends. So in this instance, as we come into 2019, first piece of information I've got is that the monthly trend is down, bearish. So what I'm looking for is a pinbar that tests the two to three standard deviation. And what I've also got here are these dots. These dots just basically tell me, have I got a bearish pinbar or a bullish pinbar printing on the chart? So price rotates, we trade through in January. We get into February and we make a low trade down into the two to three standard deviation. And in this instance, I get some extra confirmation. I don't require this, but certainly when I get all of these factors sink up, then I'll probably increase my position size. And that extra piece of confirmation here is that the pinbar that tests the two to three standard deviation supports coincides with the close back above the near-term volume wasted average price. So not just am I getting the technical signal of the pinbar, I'm also getting this sense that the money flow is starting to shift in the market. So I'm getting that, that's my, those are my first pieces of confirmation here that, you know, are telling me this sector has got merits. Next to our, that's the, on this test from a sentiment perspective, looking at the side, we had some divergence as we've traded into this low. I'm going to cover divergence in more detail next week, but just that's one piece, that's another piece of information. And then we also have the RSI stochastic positively diverging to the upside after testing below that 20 percentile level, which, if we think back to the swing strategy we covered last week, suggests stretch in the market. Okay.  So I'm happy from a probabilistic perspective, I ticked enough boxes to put the position on. Okay. Enter the trade at the close, trade higher, bit of rotation, bit of supplies we trade back into the highs. Ultimately we test up into two times, sorry, one times my risk reward. So what do I do at that point? Risk off the table. Risk free trade and I'm happy just to watch what happens next. We trade up, we move up into coming up towards the profit taking zone, but we don't quite achieve it. So I'm watching the market and what do I get? Well, I get a pinbar reversal, a bearish pinbar. Okay. So what do I do? Well, this trade is risk free. So I can put another trade on quite comfortably without exceeding my risk profile. And what's going against this? Well, we didn't quite test the two to three standard deviation resistance. We have got a bearish crossover using our momentum indicator and psych is still saying this market is bearish as denoted by this red line. Okay. So I can't actually call the boxes, but the candle size, the location works. And so I can put that trade on. Okay. And then what happens on the next day? Well, come in and we test higher and then we get another pinbar. Now, this one has come considerably closer to testing two, three standard deviation, but what we have in favour now is that we're getting that money flow signal. We're closing below the five period moving average. Okay. And then we, so we have the opportunity here to put another position on, if it fits within our risk reward profile. And we watch them wait. Trade down, both trades get risk free. And ultimately, then we trade lower and straight into our profit target of two times risk reward. By the way, we did get stopped out of this first trade, but it was a risk free break even exit with two winners here at two times our risk reward. Then what are we doing? Well, we're back to watching the market see where we're going to signal price test two, three standard deviation, no pinbar, two, three standard deviation, no pinbar. So two, three standard deviation. Some people would have called that pinbar here, but it didn't meet my minimum criteria. So no trades, nothing for me to do. Up into these high testing up towards two, three standard deviation. And we get a pinbar here, but it's a, it's a bearish pinbar against bullish money flow. And we're quite a way away from that five period look back. That's a pass from me, those trades. I'll take it, I don't mind if we close at sort of near five period volume, weight, average price in terms of looking at looking at the short set up. But in this instance, we don't. So I'm back to watching the market and then we get a bearish pinbar reversal. We get the RSI stochastic rolling over bearish sentiments from psych bearish monthly signal close to two, three standard deviation back close down towards the money towards the five period. And so that ticks the boxes or ticks enough boxes for me to take the risk, trade moves down one times my risk and also be two times my risk. Yeah, following along. So we're back to watching the market. We're now in April, price moves down, we test watching, watching the volatility bands for price tests. We see multiple tests, but we don't get any pinbar signals. I haven't got any green or red dots. The next signal we actually get is we were waiting now until August. Okay.  We're testing into the two to three standard deviation. We've got some divergence in sight. We've got positive divergence in terms of the RSI stochastic close to the money flow. But we've picked another box here, which is testing well into that two, three standard deviation. And we've got some other signals confirming here. So that's sufficient for me to pull the trigger on this one. Trade up one times the risk, two times the risk out of the market, watching for the next set. Bullish pinbar, two, three standard deviation, positive divergence here on the RSI stochastic. And so again, ticks enough boxes for me to pull the trigger on it. And again, we've got one times risk, two times risk. And we're watching for our next signal. Remember this is the daily chart. This is just the euro. And that takes us up into December and here. Now, good example. So bullish now, the monthly momentum has flew into the two to three standard deviations. So for me, technically, that bearing in mind that we've got the RSI stochastic rolling over, that would qualify as a signal. Don't get two times risk reward. And ultimately, would be swapped out in that trade. So we've had like six or seven trades there. Yeah, we've had one winner, one loser, sorry, we've had four winners, one loser, and one breaking even. But the beauty of the strategy is because our risk reward is two to one. That means that we're going to come out on top in the end. And that's just one chart. You've got 28 forex instruments, you've got the indices, you've got commodities. This strategy works on all of those instruments. And it's very, very effective because I'm not just looking for any old pin bar to put a position on. But I've got a specific criteria that is helping me identify the higher probability pin bars in the market. Just checking the time, I've been running here for nearly an hour, guys. I think what I'm going to do is I'm going to complete this session today. And what we'll do at the beginning of the next session is we'll cover divergence and the pin bar continuation strategy. Are there any questions on anything we've discussed or I've discussed with you here today? I've got a couple of minutes here. If anyone has a question they'd like to ask regarding the pin bars, how I trade them, what it is I'm looking for, now's the time to speak if you do have a question. I would also like to say that we're coming to the end of these online education sessions. What I want to tell you is that starting once we finish in two weeks the education sessions, whereby I've shown you my strategies, starting then on Thursdays, what we're actually going to do is we're going to do live market analysis sessions. So I'm going to be reviewing the markets. I'm going to be showing you how I use the strategies I've been demonstrating to you to trade these markets in real time. So we'll be looking at setups and trades that I'm in, trades that I'm looking at and how I actually use these strategies to successfully navigate the markets. That's coming towards the end of March or middle of March let's say, but we'll be doing that on these Thursdays at 11 once we complete the education. So hopefully you guys will be able to join me for that. Okay, any questions about what we've talked about today? Okay, I shall take a silence and suggest that I've done an excellent job on explaining this to you. Ah, sorry Adele, when it comes to voice I seem not to understand.  Yeah, listen, what I suggest you do is review the education. There's a link, a YouTube link that you can find, or sorry, if you search my name on YouTube with Tick Mill, you'll come across the education sessions. We've done I think 12, 16 maybe of these in total once we've finished. And if you go through each of those videos, they should help bring you up to speed in terms of giving you a base level of understanding, moving up to this more complex stuff that we're doing now, which is looking at actual strategies, but the videos in totality will give you a good graphing, sorry. Do I add to positions? That depends whether or not I'm trading with a higher time frame. It also depends if we go back to thinking about, am I able to identify whether we're in an impulsive phase or a corrective phase in the markets? So once we move into these weekly strategy sessions, you'll see how I identify the market phase we're in. At each shot I open, I want to immediately know what sort of phase the market is in. Because if I'm building a pin bar setup, and I think we've just completed a major correction, then yeah, I'd certainly hold that trade and add to it on pullbacks if I believe that we have another impulsive leg developing. Does that make sense, Arun? If you think back to the impulse and corrective technical analysis work that we did, if I believe that we've just completed a correction, or I believe we're starting a new impulse leg, or we're in the first correction in a potentially new impulsive phase, then yeah, certainly I would add to positions. But what I also say, and the guys I work with is that I think about my trading in two ways. I've got my transactional trades, the bread and butter stuff, this pin bar strategy, the swing strategy, that deliver an edge over giving enough series of outcomes. Then I have the structural approach to markets. So am I able to, you know, if I've identified that, if I can identify an impulse, I shared a chart yesterday with the sterling dollar. Let me just see, I might be able to bring it up and this will hopefully be a reasonable example. Let's see, can you see my tick mill thing here? Let's go here and show you now. So this is a pattern that I'd identified. This is the sterling dollar. This was yesterday, had a bullish setup developing. We popped higher this morning. And so structurally, I personally don't think from a technical perspective that this is going to be the low in sterling before the next major leg to the upside. I think it's too obvious, is the first thing. But I think we do have the potential here for carving out what I believe could be a very significant inverse head and shoulders in sterling. And what I believe is that if that pattern is going to play out, then the move that we saw from the lows prior to Brexit to the post-election highs, that leg should replicate over here. So it should take us much higher in sterling dollar. So this is where I'm talking about the structural stuff, is that I have that level of understanding so that I can think to myself, if this pattern starts to develop, then I know that the scope for the upside is significant. So what I'd start doing is not just, I've maybe put on a couple of positions, I've put on one for the transactional trade to just deliver that two times risk reward, which is going to keep my account ticking over. Then what I also might start to think is, I'm going to put something on here to try and build a position over weeks, if not months. Does that make sense, Runa? If you haven't done, I suggest you sign up here, you can get email alerts for my analysis, the charts of the day and the daily market outlook, which will give you a good feel for how I approach the markets. And that starts to produce daily. So if you're going to follow along, you're going to join in the strategy sessions, live market analysis that we're going to be doing in over the coming months, then it's worth being up to date with my perspective on the markets as we stand. Okay guys, we've touched now there. I'm going to wrap this one up here. Thanks very much for your time and your patience with the technical issues we had yesterday. Apologies for that. Hopefully they have been fully rectified now, we won't have any more issues. Like I said, next week, we're going to look at the PINBAR continuation and we'll also start to think about divergence in terms of some of these PINBAR reversals. And in terms of the swing strategy, I'll walk you through what divergence is, how it works, what its function in the market is, and how we can use it to profit. And then, like I said, we'll cover off the PINBAR continuation as well. Thanks very much for your time, everyone. I hope this helps.


Mark Esper. Ukraine has to gain ATACM's long-range missiles. Mark Esper, former US Secretary of Defense, has called for the provision of ATACMS long-range missiles and aircraft to Ukraine. Esper believes that the policy of Western countries towards Ukraine is correct but too slow. He stated that in order to be successful, Ukraine should have received tanks in the autumn. He urges the White House and allies to be proactive and not delay decisions on ATACMS missiles and fighter jets. Instead of reacting to the threat of a Russian offensive, I'd rather see the Ukrainians go on the offensive now, while the Russians are still trying to train, equip and organize their military, defeat them and push them out of Ukrainian territory. But now we're lagging behind. Tanks should have been handed over to the Ukrainians in September or October, a former high-ranking official said to VOA. We should have approved giving them aircraft that would have given them an advantage. If they are going to engage in combined arms combat, you need to have not only direct fire but also air fire, he adds. We should send them ATACMS so the Ukrainians could reach deep into eastern Ukraine, deep into Crimea, to destroy the launch pads of Shahead's Iranian-made kamikaze drones, to disable the launch pads for launching missiles, to destroy warehouses of material and technical support, barracks, whatever. You need to have accurate long-range weapons, Esper said. He is convinced that military aid to Ukraine will not lead to escalation, as the Russians say. He calls on the White House to make bolder, faster and larger decisions regarding military aid to Ukraine.


It was fairly easy. Silva, even though he's manic and in your face, he's also kind of very smart and calculated when he's in combat. So I didn't have to do that much, you know? I mean, I did a lot of stuff with the weapons, had a couple of fight scenes in the bakery, and then in the building. But for me, it was easier, you know? Eco was the one who had to do all the tough stuff in most of the fighting and Lauren. So, you know, you'd have to ask them. For me, it was a more of a walk in the park. The dialogue and the energy and the intensity that was really kind of that I had to focus on every day.   So that was, that was the trying thing for me. Because by the time I worked out, played golf, went to work, I was already tired. I think our training was really fun. I remember that yesterday, when you said about the hotel, because we got to go into an abandoned hotel to practice and, you know, like ground to standing, to transitioning between all this different gear, and then being in the film, learning to run with just like huge heavy backpacks, jumping in and out of cars. I realized I'm not picking one scene. That's basically why. The fire, they said everything on fire. It was great. Real fire. We had so many practical effects in the film. Yeah. I don't know if there's any CGI, to be honest. I spend most of the time with Flavor Tartar in my hair. We like completely sweat through. We had to get to a point in the day where you couldn't tell that we were sweaty because we sweat all the way through our outfits. We changed the color of our clothing. Yeah. And we're talking like jeans. Like it looked like we jumped out of a pool. Oh, we're always doing all kinds of terrible stuff to each other. Leaving nasty things in our trailers, throwing stuff at people, dressing people up in crazy outfits, shaving my friend's eyebrows, making them run through this, this entire building with bare feet and carrying a small goat and acting like we were filming it, but the camera was never rolling. Painting his teeth, pitch black. Maybe we didn't even know there were pranks. Oh, eco. I'm just kidding. It's eco. Eco and his team, there were some great pranksters. Yeah. But he had a thing of like, like surprising me all the time. Like he would sneak up on me and like get me to jump and like, yeah, that was. I forgot about that. Like legit Booskaz. Like, really? Booskaz. Booskaz. Oh, you're MTV UK. So I guess that's Booskaz happens all the time. It's new for me. Well, every day we're cutting up and laughing and playing pranks on each other. You know, Pete and I, there were a couple of days, you know, I think Columbia, as much as I loved being there, it was tough because I never went more than a week without seeing my family. And that was three weeks and we were shooting six day weeks. So I was starting to get annoyed. I was like, Pete was like, Oh God, I better get him out of here. No, well, six billion element. But that's a guy who is chosen to be in this program, not his choice. And that's something we've been developing. Hopefully we're shooting that in the UK in the spring. About 50,000% if that's a thing, didn't even, that's why it was so fun to watch the finished product. Because we were like, wow, the remaining footage could make, you know, the quadril, whatever you call when it's for movies. Yeah, for movies. I got to serenade. Serenade you. Oh, the singing. I had to learn a song and sing and I'm terrible at singing, but I sang for her. And that was sweet. And it's not in the movie. No, because it wasn't intense enough. I was swing low, sweet chariot. I know, I like the words. Yeah. Because it's like, everything's happening. All the things happening. Time for a song. And then we're going again, you know, like, I wouldn't have. You should have been singing while shooting. That's right. Dang. Next one, the sequel.


Welcome to the show, everybody. This is Psychic Medium, Tony G, airing live on blog talk, WSCS, Rude Rangers TV, and a number of podcast stations. So I'm extremely excited. I'm going to get a little comfortable. I should have probably done that before the show started, but why would I? I never do, so I'm going to get a little comfortable, and we are going to get right into it. There's so many amazing things going on right now, and I want to share them with you. First and foremost, Rude Rangers Entertainment, Rude Rangers TV has taken on Psychic Medium, Tony G, so it will now be airing on their stations, and they're on Amazon Fire and Roku and Apple TV. You can go to Rude Rangers TV and see their whole lineup and also my show. You can go to RudeRangers.net and download the app and watch it live stream on any of your devices then. I will be airing Mondays at 6pm on Rude Rangers. I'm also on WSCS, and I think I air on WSCS this show Mondays at 11am, and Create A Life You Love, which is my other show, airs also on WSCS, okay, and all the podcasts, podcasting stations. Alrighty, next. Tomorrow, which is Tuesday, May, I was going to say April, May 18th. I will be at White Pearl Spa for an event. They have invited me to be a guest at this event. I'll be doing readings from 4 until 8pm. White Pearl Spa is in Des Moines, Illinois, so if you are in the area or you want to be in the area, please join me there. So, that's going to be very exciting too. This is my first time there, but it's a Med-Eye Spa and a nail lounge, and they're going to have a lot of giveaways and specials. I'll have copies of my books, which I have seven books that I've authored. I'm working on my eighth book, so I'm so super excited about all of that. Let's see. I also have another show, Create A Life You Love, which I'll be recording this week via YouTube, and then it will be uploaded to WSCS and a number of other areas. That show basically just talks about where do you want to be in life and how do you get there.  It's a thought process. It's what's in your mind because we can't achieve what we don't believe. There has to be some part of us that has a small belief that this is available and it's available to us, so I do a lot of clearing work, a lot of healing work, a lot of communicating about the process of getting to where you need to be in your mind and in reality then. All right, so okay, so I'm going to be taking callers on blog talk, from blog talk. If you are on blog talk and I call your area code, please have one question, one exact question, or one connection, one exact connection available. When I call your area code please take me off of speakerphone and speak directly into your phone for the audio purposes of all the shows that are, for all the stations that are airing the show. Okay, hi Genevieve, how are you today? I'm going to first go to the very first caller who is 856. Hello 856, how are you today? Hi, I'm good, how are you? This is Laura. Hi Laura, how can, where are you calling from? I'm in New Jersey. Awesome, how can I help you today? I'd like to know what you see from me around getting another job. I'm looking for something more stable. Okay, so the first thing I hear, well I heard March, April, May, so I feel like you probably have been putting stuff out for this long. You have been applying for this long. I'm going, or at least this long, and I'm going to say June because that's the next thing I hear and then it goes into July. So I feel like something is going to come in possibly in June as far as interviews and being in that space where another company is looking at you very seriously. And I feel like in July the final decision will be made and it should be made in your favor. Now the final decision may be made in June, however you might start in July because I get a very soft July which tells me it would either be the very beginning of July or you're going to start in July. Now this position is going to be your choice. There are going to be things you like about this position but there are also going to be things you do not like that they're putting on the table. If you take the position, it will... What are the things I don't like? Let me finish please. If you take the position, it will be fine. It will work out. If you keep looking in August, see I want to point something out right there. Thank you for saying that by the way. Right away in our mind when we hear there might be things you don't like. Right away in our mind we're like, what are they? Can I live with them? And not the question. The question should be right? Isn't that so true? We all do that. I'm willing to compromise. How much am I willing to compromise? The question should be, is there a better offer coming? If I hold out a little longer, will I be in a better place? I've noticed especially since the whole thing started, I won't... We have become very desperate as a world. We've become so desperate for a sense of safety even if it's a false sense of safety. We've become so desperate for money and work and we're in such a place, some of us are in such a place of fear. We're willing to compromise anything and it goes the same with relationships. If I say, well, there's somebody coming in but there are going to be things you don't like. Well, what are those things? Maybe I can deal with them. No, long term, we can never deal with them. Long term, we know it too but we're willing to make that sacrifice out of desperation for love or whatever we want to call it just for a change. Well, it's not as bad as the last one, the last job, the last person. So here's what I'm going to say. If you can hold off and this goes for relationships, for jobs, for anything. If we can just be patient and know the right one, the good one, the best one is right around the corner. If we can have that knowing for ourselves and that willingness to hold out for it, we do so much better. August, August, August. So if you can hold out and not be afraid, something better won't come along because isn't that what we do? We're so nervous that we think, well, this might be the best I get. Really? Because that's not how the universe works. That's not how angels work. If we can hold out and we're really clear about what we want, we're going to get it. So I want to take that desperation away from you. Excuse me. Anybody listening? Anybody re-listening? So we're in a state of desperation and I'm not going to say with work, with finding work, with relationships, just in that state of desperation. And I'm clearing this now. So you may, everybody listening, re-listening may feel something. You may feel something. If you do, that's perfect. If you don't, it doesn't mean it's not working. It just means you might not feel it. I cannot tell you, and this is just one small example. The number of people who stay with someone or a job because they feel like something better won't be there. But if they knew, if they had that guarantee, which again is going from a place of, it's going, that's coming from a place of fear, not faith. If they had that guarantee that there is somebody better, they would be willing to let go of what they had right now and go into something better. Now the one thing I can say, and it's really, this is just an example of it. I cannot tell you the number of people who are willing to do things just to make their life easier. Something that might even compromise their health just to make their life easier just so they can have their so-called freedoms. And that goes into another area. But when we're in that state of fear, when we're in that state of fear, or lack, or desperation, we end up with those situations. And we really need to be in that place of knowing that there is better. Now I can't, I don't know about your area, but in my area and in many other areas, they can't get employees. So I always say, if there isn't the position you want where you are, be willing to relocate, be willing to start your whole life over if you can. Even if that relocation is a little relocation, you never know where it's going to take you and what it's going to offer you. Now I don't feel like you're going to have to relocate to get this really good position in August. I feel like that position is local. I do feel like it's going to come in strong for you. And I do feel like you're really going to love it. You're going to enjoy this position. You're going to have, it's going to almost be like kindred spirits that you work with. It's going to feel familiar once you get there. So even though the first offer may be coming through a little sooner, there will be things that you don't appreciate and you are going to have a better offer coming in in August. Okay. Now maybe this job pops up in July and then by August you have it or it pops up in August and by the end of August you have it. Okay. Okay. Wonderful. Thank you so much, Tony. I really appreciate that. Oh, it's always, always my pleasure and I hope that this was helpful and please do keep me posted. Okay. I will. Thank you so much for the wonderful words of advice. I really needed to hear it. Oh, absolutely. My pleasure. Absolutely. I am going to go to caller 860860. How are you today? Absolutely. My pleasure. What's your name? Where are you calling from? This is Lisa Marie. I'm calling from Connecticut. Another East Coaster. How are you today? God, thank you for asking. How can I help you? I've been told in my life that I have gifts and that I have a book in me and nothing ever happens and I'm just wondering if that's the truth. Okay.  That's not my job. My job is to be exact and honest and say the tough things sometimes. Sometimes I have to say things that people don't love and it's okay. I don't mind that if you don't like what I say. You know what? It comes from the angels argue with them. In order for something to happen, you have to do something. Okay.  I do whatever. If somebody told you there's a book in you, have you started writing the book? Have you started doing the outline? Have you sat down with pen and paper and computer? Have you or are you waiting for somebody to drop a book deal in your lap? Now I don't mean to sound harsh or to sound like you're whatever. Sometimes we need to hear that it's a matter of making a move in order to get the move. So if you want a new house or a new apartment, you're not going to go, well, I've been told I'm supposed to move, but nobody walked up to me and offered me an apartment.  I can hear it in your voice. But sometimes even as kind, loving, sweet people need to hear, get on it. Start moving. Do it. Don't make me shake you. What I'm getting for you is they just keep repeating the same thing. Sweet girl, they keep saying, if you want it, you've got to take that action. You've got to make that move. Now I have a lot of people that come. I am, I don't like to brag or sound braggy. I don't like to put things out there. But I have a tremendous number of psychics that come to me, people who are extremely intuitive. And I have a bigger number of people who bring their intuitive children to me. Okay. And some of these people are actually psychics or intuitives that do it for work and do it as work. And others, they just have their gifts. And they're like, Well, I think I'm, I'm intuitive. I'm like, and then their question to me is, well, what am I supposed to do with this? And my answer to them is always the same. What do you want to do with it? Now, here's something I'm so happy you called. And I'm pleased. No, I'm not lecturing you. This is information not only for you, but for anybody listening, because there are so many people in your shoes right now. First and foremost, you know, if you have gifts and we all every single one of us are born with gifts, it's something inside of us. It's not something that's dropped into us. It's something inside of us. It's like a muscle. Either we use it or we don't either we practice or we don't. And if we are going to practice, we practice to the extent that we feel safe and comfortable. And then we have to decide, Okay, if I have this, where am I going to go with it? What am I going to use it for? Am I going to use it for my own guidance? And we do instinctively every day, use it for our own guidance, whether we know this or not, whether we acknowledge it or not, we're using it for our own guidance. The other thing is, excuse my voice there, the other thing is, do we want to take it further? Do we want to use it for guidance for others? Do we want to put ourselves out there and have people coming to us and helping other people with the guidance that we can give them? So here's the biggest thing I'm getting for you is if you want something to move, you might have to push it a little bit. Again, they're not letting that go.  You have to decide how do you want to do it? Where do you want to take it? And why do you want to do that? Just because somebody said there's a book in you, maybe you don't want to put that information out there. Maybe you don't want to write a book, but there is a book in you. And not to take away from your personal story, there's a book in everybody. We've all, every single person has had very interesting, very complicated, very who lives, but not everybody's going to want to write about that. Now you do have at least two books in you. You could do three if you wanted to, and those books have to be determined upon what you want to let out of you, what you want to share with the world, and your gifts. You have to decide what do you want to use them for? What do you want to open up inside of you? And that's for every single person. The one thing I am going to caution you and anybody else on, don't put titles on it. Not, of course, put a title on your book. The further you stay from ego, the further you can go with your gifts. Now, what do I mean by that? I watch, this is my life. I love watching a lot of different aspects of psychic abilities, channeling to row all of it. And the one thing that will make me turn something off very quickly is when somebody talks about them saying, oh, I'm on the 5D level. Okay, you're coming from ego. We're done. We're all on the same level. We're just getting there in different ways. Oh, my, you know, stay away from titles.  Just go on your journey. Make it your journey. Your journey should be personal to you while you're taking it. And you shouldn't have to blow your trumpet about it when you're done because it will speak for itself. If you have to blow your trumpet about who, what, where, why, where, you aren't there.  Okay, love. So my very, very, very long answer for you is that, but I'm going to do, I'm going to do a clearing right now, a healing, a clearing that says we are going to clear, you are stuck. I'm going to clear that. You're in faith about being able to move forward with this. I'm going to clear that because I get to know. And this is for you, anybody listening and re listening. And I want you to know they do want you to move forward in these areas and use these gifts because they're important for you and they're important to you, but they're also important for others. Whatever you put out there will help another person if it's put out there correctly. I hope this was helpful love. You are so welcome. I'm going to go directly to the next caller and the next caller is 415. Hey 415. How are you today? Where are you calling from? What's your name? Hi, Tony. This is Kate and I'm calling from Washington State. Excellent. How can I help you today? Well, a lot of the things, of course, have applied to me. I just landed here from moving two days ago and I had a great trip up driving for a couple of days and but I feel kind of out of balance. So just any advice on how to gain my footing and then just kind of feel exhausted all the time. Okay. Yeah. You know what this at the first I'm getting three things immediately. This was very emotional for you. And I think anytime we relocate, even if it's from one house to another, it's just emotionally exhausting. So you're emotionally exhausted. And I think a lot of us are. So I'm just doing a clearing on that right now for you. The other thing I'm hearing, and it sounds so bizarre, but I love it. You are acclimating to a new energy. So every geographic area has their own frequency or energy and you are acclimating to the frequency you're getting ready to acclimate to the frequency that you're in. And I just want to ask a few questions of them upstairs. Is this frequency higher than hers?  And I think you know what I mean. I don't think I have to go into great detail about that. I think you can know what that means.  And you're typically a very just a solid person, like balance. Yeah. Yes. So I'm going to use your term. She is balanced or in balance. And I get a no. So we're going to clear that and that's for you, everybody listening and re listening. Give this two to three days and you should be fully acclimated and ready to go. But by the end of today, you should feel much, much better. Now for you, everybody listening, everybody listening, re listening, I'm going to do a quick they are clear. I get a no. So I'm going to clear that they are unclear. We're going to fix that also. And for anybody listening, re listening, the most important thing is to be like in that really solid, clear state. So we're going to do that. We're going to see where that takes us. And we are going to allow all of this to clear for everybody. I think by I want to say within an hour or two, you should feel much, much better. And then you should get stronger and stronger from there. I do feel like this was a really good move for you. You're going to I just like see the cornucopia thing. And I hear the door to prosperity is opening for you. So whatever this means for you, I'm very happy and excited for you. Yeah, that's wonderful. Thank you. I really felt that in all the lower chakra. Oh, really, it feels more aligned already. And you know, they're all rolling around. I love that. Thank you for sharing that with me. I'm going to tell you when we do relocate, it is that lower chakra area of safety security home that really gets thrown off just for a second. And has has us in that place where we are sometimes not feeling as safe and secure as where we came from. So I want to thank you so much for calling in. I'm so grateful for your for you letting me know that. And I just took my phone off of speaker for a moment because we're almost at the 30 minute mark for blog talk, blog talk, folks, please don't go any place. I'm not done with you yet. But that show I always do for 30 minutes for WSCS. So I'm going to thank everybody on WSCS for watching this show today. If you would like to see the rest of this show, please visit my YouTube channel. And you can just, you get to watch the show in its entirety.


This is how normal-sized people sit at the footy. And this is how I sit at the footy, at 6'10". Sorry, these seats are taken.


I'm an everyday woman, woman, woman In every way, yeah, yeah I'm living my life, life Living day by day Welcome to Every Way Woman, there are some major changes happening in the talk show world Live from Los Angeles, here's Every Way Woman There's the woman who just joined as one of the assistant coaches on a men's basketball team What do you think about that? If a woman's trying to be a coach on a man's basketball team, it's not that she isn't smart enough to understand strategy and all of that But there are physiological and psychological thought processes and things are going on in a man's body that a woman may not fully understand So yeah, I think you can cross boundaries sometimes where you take it too far, absolutely So do you think we've taken it too far? I think in some ways we have, not that because I'm saying women can't be everything they want to be, they're not smart enough It's just that sometimes it's like, no, actually you can't be a man, can you be a basketball player? Just be a proud woman, there's nothing about me that wants to be a man Why not coach women's basketball team? Why teach, you know, why go into men's sports?  There's so much work that needs to be done with women, I really wish that instead of competing to be a man We invested our time in supporting the growth and evolution of women I wish I could get up and kiss you right now because that's so true Because what happened to just being a plain old woman, sexy, vibrant, educated, nurturer of the family Why do we feel that? Because the man is moving here, we gotta do that because there's some reason we're gonna fall behind We're not equal, sorry people, men and women are not equal We're not equal We're not even designed the same way Yeah, well and on that note, I have friends who go to their jobs specifically not dressed feminine, not for practical reasons But because they feel in their office they won't earn the same respect as a man Yeah, that's true So they step into this role of almost dressing more manly Yeah, but you know, a little cleavage will get you a little... I want to wear a choo-choo in heels in between the same way, bring it on I don't want to have to do that and I think it's such a shame that so many women feel that way You know, instead of being dressed like this, they put on a suit to look like a man Look, if a man showed up in his Superman shirt, you know, and expected someone to take him seriously It would be hard to take him seriously There's a place for girl power and there's a place for man power It doesn't always cross I want to be girl power all the time and I know It doesn't work But when I was young, we come from a military background in history of military veterans in my family And I wanted to grow up and be in the military Right And I was going to be an officer in the military Were you trying to think like a man? You know, I didn't think of it that way But yes, I got out into the dirt and I did all the stuff with the boys I did what the boys did And I talked to a female officer and I'm trying to figure out where am I going to go Where am I going to go with this? And when I started talking to the female officers during that time They discouraged me from going into the military And I thought, well, are you jealous? I'm just younger. What's going on here? But the stories that they gave to me were like, no, that's not a place for women The type of abuse that we received during that time The type that you would be prepared to get defiled regularly Mentally, physically Sometimes it just doesn't make sense Why do we want to push ourselves to the point where we have to meet people? But I think there's a point in What does that look like? Think like a man Are we saying that women are subservient and they're thinking? Didn't What does that look like? Isn't there a book written by, I believe, Steve Harman that says Think like a man, act like a woman Exactly A lady Think like a man, act like a lady It's going to get you a lot farther If you understand the way a man thinks In the business world, in the romantic world You will get farther Because we're relating to men Because I didn't want to leave with women that We're sometimes, we're some dits because we don't think like men No, absolutely not No, but there is an art to being able to understand the mind of a man You can think like a woman and understand the mind of a man Okay, I have a question If there was a man sitting here talking to us about our menstrual cycle How real do you think that conversation would be? I can't stand that When you go to a gynecologist This is totally off topic No, but it's a man And he tries to tell you how it feels Right, yes, I understand It's like I don't Right, exactly So, yeah, there's that crossing where men at some point Are going to look at us and go Why am I having this conversation with you? Okay Because there are conversations that we don't have with men Because it doesn't make sense Not that a man can't be educated Right, I understand that Not that a man can't understand it I understand that But at some point we're like Do you bleed regularly? I don't know So you think we're disservicing women?  Ladies, should couples get married when they're broke? Is there a time financially when it's better to tie the knot? Broke is relative Right, yeah That's true That is so true I think it's good I think it's okay If a couple is ready to get married You don't have to have the big fancy Spend tens of thousand dollars on a wedding That's not why people get married It shouldn't be a reason why I don't think there should be some sort of financial stability Along with the emotional stability of the relationship Financial stability is something That you're always working towards Once you get to a place where you're comfortable You're always still looking to move to another place Where you can get more comfortable And look for a place So it's evolving You're financially I know my finances are evolving I don't know about evolving But to Madison's point I think in a marriage what happens You decide you should talk about it You should talk about Have that conversation before you get married Hey listen This is where we are financially Okay, yeah Enough with what you should What did you and your husband do? Tell me about that conversation We were broke We were broke We didn't have a house He was just getting out of graduate school I was working so he didn't have a job But we knew that picture going in So we got a little apartment Did he have a ring? When he pulled pearls to me We did not have a ring You did not afford to have a ring Really? Right So we didn't get one until 90 days Before we got married But we talked about it See that's the difference We knew our picture going in It wasn't like there was some expectation That he had a million dollars in the bank That he was hiding And I think that's what's missing People are not having the conversation But I think a lot of men Even you know guys I've been in relationships with them Past have said you know I love you But I've got to make a little more money Get myself financially stable Before we build a future And I'm wondering Is that an excuse Because he doesn't really Build a future Or is he really concerned About his finances I think for most men They are concerned about their finances Men think about it more than women do They want to see them They visualize and see themselves At least I think In a way where they are successful And they're doing this And then they got the ring And then they got the girl And so they have a different way Of visualizing what marriage Or weddings look like As opposed to women We'll just jump in Oh yeah It doesn't matter Where is my twisty tie For a ring I love my white men However I did meet a woman Who had said to A male friend of mine She pulled out this picture In Cosmopolitan Of this ring That was worth about $50,000 plus And she tore it out And she said Don't ask me to marry you Until you can get me this See There's a lot of women Out there who are like that Who want to make sure Their man can afford Their lifestyle That they want for themselves Absolutely Now at the time I was like Okay this is a bit shallow However at the same time Is it shallow Because she just knows What she wants Yes On the flip side She was honest She's honest She's honest I know This is the kind of life I want to live in If you can't give it to me Don't ask me to marry you That's true She should give it to herself Absolutely Well good that she was honest But also as women We have to identify potential Right Where my husband and I Are financially today We weren't 22 years ago But again We had the conversation Together Across the road So sometimes as women I'm a caution The $50,000 ring early Okay But also What your vision of marriage May be different From someone else's My vision of marriage When I got married Was and I remember saying This to my ex Saying you know what As long as we're happy I'm okay If we live in a In a trailer park Okay so Now years later I get that Repeated back to me As if I didn't know That you wanted me To buy the trailer park Well no I'm nervous I'm nervous to have That conversation About finances And Well I mean I really want to Share all of my secrets Well what My purchases are like I just For some reason It makes me very Very nervous And very hesitant To be quickly open No no Not necessarily secrets But I mean Debt I feel like a man Who wants to marry me Is like But I don't want to be Responsible for all Her baggage So you feel That he'll reach it Student loans Car payments Etc. Because I feel like That is Just kind of you are marrying. You're marrying.  Okay, but speaking with your emotional life, then if you're not as financially stable, does that cause more problems in your relationship? But I think it's where you put the emphasis. No, it doesn't. You're right. It's where you put the emphasis. Again, you ask me and I'll go back to it. We didn't have a lot. We didn't have a lot. But what we had, and don't dismiss this, ladies, is we talked about what our future was gonna look like together. And we said we only make X amount of money, and we've worked in those means. And I know people. And I didn't put pressure on him. I know couples who have had a lot of money and they spent that money ignoring each other. Right. And it didn't help them in their marriage. That's powerful. It's really relative. And I think I love, it's really relative. You have a million dollars, you don't love each other. You have a dollar for- Yeah, you can afford to spend more time away from each other. You can ignore problems. You're gonna talk about a burrito, but you're happy because you're looking each other's eyes. Mm-hmm. I'm not, no, we'll be back with more Every Way Woman. Stay tuned. I can buy my own trailer park now. Absolutely. I'll put them in. Stay with us, we'll be right back. Are you an Every Way Woman? Have you ever thought about making a career out of your passion for makeup? Well, keep watching, because we're gonna talk to Anna about just that. Next up on Every Way Woman. Welcome to Every Way Woman. So women are launching themselves into entrepreneurship. And today we're talking to Anna about just that. She turned her passion for makeup into her career. So tell me, what does it like to be a makeup artist? Girl, it's not all glam as it looks in the social media. What do you mean by that?  It is not all glam. You do put on a good face. It's long hours, a lot of driving. I mean, really my friends really know they hardly ever see me. And it's a workout. I don't have a life. I've seen the case. You are lugging. Yes. You're really in charge of all your own tools, your products. Yes, it's a lot of tools, a lot of products, you know. Searching for different type of brands that fit different types of people. Not the expensive kind too sometimes. So rewind. Take me back to the moment when you decided you wanted to become a makeup artist. Wow. Well, I never really wanted to become a makeup artist. It was more of a hobby. It just happened. You just what? It just happened. I mean, I literally had a full-time job. And doing makeup and hair was just a hobby. I would do it for prom. I started back when I was 16, girl. So how did you turn that into a business? It just naturally happened. People were calling me. I remember I ended up doing a friend that ended up with Gothic. And she ended up saying, you know, glamia for my wedding. She wore the whole red dress. No, she wore a red dress for her wedding with the YVL. But I ended up transforming her. It was a whole transformation that people were like, wow, you did that? And I think I was probably like 20 when I did that. How did that make you feel when you were able to transform someone? Well, in the beginning, it felt good. Now it's a different feeling because I end up helping organizations and our profits, where I end up transforming them, giving back. And it's different like cancer patients, you know, stuff like that.  It feels good. It feels good. It feels like I'm doing something. And even if it's for those couple of minutes that they're sitting in my chair, I'm happy that I touched a life in that way. To make someone feel beautiful is a true gift. And you really have it. Thank you. There must be a pressure to always feel beautiful yourself. Oh, to look beautiful. Oh, yeah. Every time I go into a job, I mean, all my ladies here probably know that when you go into a job, it's kind of hard to wake up every time, every morning, to put on your hair and put on your makeup. You know what I mean? So doing, being a makeup artist, you have to look presentable. You have to be the part. Oh, yeah. And especially me, I'm known for retro, so I've got to wear my red rose. But so how long have you been working as a makeup artist? 18 years. 18 years. You don't look old enough to do that. I hope nobody just said my age right now. Yeah. Nobody's doing math at home yet. I promise you that. So what's next for you as a makeup artist? Well, definitely, I want to do my own salon. I'm a type of person that anybody that knows me, I reach for the stars. And nothing's impossible for me. So right now, I have plans to be able to open up my own salon. But tell me about the networking. You have to network being a makeup artist. It's really important to network. A lot of people that I interact with, inspiring makeup artists, they always tell me, I don't like to work with other people or stuff like that. And I just look at them, and even though I shake my head, it's like, girl, you've got to learn to work with other people. It's all about networking. Well, yeah, what's the dynamic with your team? Oh, everybody in my team needs to know how to work with each other. That's why you're in my team. But definitely, when you network, you end up finding another job. A wedding could turn into a fashion show. The next person has maybe a connection to a celebrity. You know what I mean? It's all like, then you're working on movie sets. Then you're working, so it's impossible to do this. You're working on Everyway Woman, making us all look good and feel beautiful. Well, we're going to have more of your tips on a few more episodes of Everyway Woman. And of course, you can find tricks on everywaywoman.com more when we return. Stay tuned. Stay with us. We'll be right back. Are you an Everyway Woman? Up next, we have Manji from 88 Tequila, bringing you Slim 88. Salud. If you're already being naughty with a cocktail, then who needs all the calories? Manji is back, and she's talking about the Slim 88 today. But before we get to that, let's talk a little tequila.  Yes. You're proud of that? Of course I am. Who's not proud of drinking tequila? No, but not only do you drink tequila, you work tequila. I mean, is your day ever not tequila? No, tequila is an everyday work. It's our brand. Because when my night is tequila, my morning hurts. Let's just put it that way. And how do you avoid that? Tequila has such this kind of stigma. It depends on what kind of tequila you drink and also how you drink them. So for instance, ours is 100% blue agave. It's the good stuff. Obviously that's high end. The more it costs the better it is for you is pretty much how it works. Isn't that the story about life? Tell this to my father. Exactly. So it has to do with what it's made with. It has to do with the process. And then also what you're mixing it with. If you're going to take tequila and pour a bunch of sweet syrupy products into it, it's going to give you a hangover because of all the sugar. Sugar and alcohol are typically what would cause you to not feel so good the next day. So those multiple margaritas hurt? Depending on how they're made. I mean, it depends. So like the one we're going to do. Do you know how that family secret? I mean, if your life is always tequila, what's the family secret? What's the hangover secret? Tell us. I drink a lot of water and an Advol before I go to bed. That seems to help me. OK, come on. All right. But is tequila typically like a skinny liquor? It is. It's lower in fat. It's lower in calories overall, as well as it's actually good for your digestive system. It helps to. Tell that to my doctor. Actually, it. Is it really? Yeah, it's a known fact that it helps with digestion.  It's still in moderation. I'm not going to drink the whole bottle or anything like that. But definitely a little bit here and there. A little dose will do, yeah? Yeah. Absolutely. OK, so typically people think vodka is a skinny thing, but we can go to tequila as an option. And I love to host events. So having a non-margarita is thank you. Right, exactly. We like to do different things. So today, we're doing the Slim 88, which is lower in fat and lower in calories than your traditional margarita, because you're using all natural ingredients. And the first thing we're going to do is pour some tequila. Why the tequila? So this is the Blancone? Yes. So we use this one because you're using less intense flavors. And if you used a repulsador in Yeho, you could. You definitely could. But you're going to get more of the oakiness and the wood, whereas you want to enjoy the lemon and lime flavors with agave. Keep it light, fruity, eccentricity. Yeah, exactly. Keep it fresh. Sure. So let's do a shot. You could measure a two ounce shot, typically, in the shot glass. This is a test, so you don't measure. And I'll measure. You know what, bartenders usually do a three second pour. So I'll just go ahead. She's the pro here, obviously. And do that. And I'm just going to go ahead and. So let's hope I'm right. Yeah, I was going to say, let's see how good you are. Oh my gosh. See, now I just. OK, see, you just lost. That was my fault. That was my fault. All right, I'm just going to free pour it into your juice. Pour yours back in there. Pretend that you ever have it. And three, got it. OK, what's next? All right, so we're going to go ahead and do the agave nectar. I want to, you know, I always see people sniffing their liquor. What is what's that about?  You want to you want to inhale all the different ingredients and just enjoy it. And when you taste it, you'll be able to taste everything. It's important that you smell before you taste, isn't it? So then you taste more. If you actually you pick up on more of the flavor. OK, absolutely. What's next? So we're going to do agave nectar. And we'll just go ahead and squeeze a little bit in there. Agave nectar is very thick and very sweet. It's kind of like honey. Kind of like honey. Kind of like honey. But I personally think it's a little bit sweeter. Other people might. I mean, how much am I going? I would stop right there. I would just put a little bit. And then we're going to go ahead and squeeze some fresh lemon juice into this. And how fun are these glasses, too? I mean, one lady doesn't like a martini glass. It seems very sophisticado, if you will. OK, so we're going to go ahead and just squeeze the lemon. Talk about fresh lemon juice. Look at that. I love that. What is this? Lemon squeezer, I guess. I don't know what it technically called. Because this is how I usually squeeze my lemons. Let me show you. And then I get to squeeze. And you're more than welcome to. Yeah, well, but then I get to seeds. Exactly. And you get a lot more juice this way. OK, well, that's good to know. OK, yours is always going to be prettier than mine. That's just how it is. Now we've got some lime, too. Now we're going to do the lime as well. All right, I'm just free pouring free hand in this one. All right, that's fine. And most bartenders would make it that way. Sure, sure, sure. What else do we have? And then you can add a little ice if you want. Sure, sure, sure. Just to chill it a little bit. And then what we like to do to spice it up sometimes is just toss a few jalapenos in there. Well, talk about the jalapenos. Well, I don't know if I can handle those. I'm going to let Patsy try mine. And for this information, you can go to everywaywoman.com. Thanks so much, Maggie. Cheers.
