Hey friends today, we are hanging out at Dutch Wonderland in Lancaster, Pennsylvania This theme park has 34 Attractions and shows including three roller coasters and it pays homage to that beautiful Pennsylvania Dutch culture so we're gonna ride some rides eat some food and have a beautiful Dutch Wonderland kind of day Anyhoo, let's go do this Dutch Wonderland has been around since the 1960s and has a reputation for being one of the best amusement parks for families And I love the entrance here because you have to go through a castle and it has a moat surrounding it And then of course you've got Duke the dragon over here and a monorail that circles the whole entire park So it's gonna be fun to go and explore and ride some fun rides. I Have been traveling around visiting some amazing theme parks amusement parks and this is number 21 So I've been to 21 different theme parks and amusement parks all around the country I've been in Florida California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and I'm just loving it. This has been amazing. I Really do appreciate this castle though I mean, it's not like you know a Cinderella castle or sleeping beauty, but it's got its own little charm to it It's got a nice little moat there So we have to cross the bridge to actually get into the park and it's it's pretty it's a it's a Dutch Wonderland castle Bon Bon's gonna be hanging out with me today. You're wearing a universal studio shirt to Dutch Wonderland Look at you and yeah, we're gonna ride rides and just have fun and enjoy maybe get something to eat I mean, there's a lot of great things to do around here, especially being in Lancaster They even have a cartoon network hotel right next to Dutch Wonderland that maybe we'll check out at the end of the video and Yeah, let's head on in Look at how cool this is a little drawbridge. We've got Duke up there Here's the moat that surrounds it And we're heading into the castle My mom is actually with us today, but she didn't want to come into Dutch Wonderland She wanted to go out and shop over at the Tanger outlets So she dropped me and bon bon off and I kind of feel like a kid again She dropped us off and she's gonna pick us up later Tickets to get into the park are 6499 that's when you pay at the gate, but you should always look online You'll probably save a little bit of money and we're ready to go I just seen over there that this was awarded by the golden ticket society for the best family park in 2019 He got a little sign right there and I love it. I see a train already. I see a roller coaster. Oh, I can hear a roller coaster Yeah, you can hear it The last time we were here it was 2021 we were here last year actually and it was just as the pandemic was ending So it's gonna be great to see the park open its full capacity Here is a look at the map and you can see it's actually a pretty decent size park They have exploration island over there. You have a train the monorail a couple of roller coasters Oh, and here is the cartoon network hotel. That's like right outside the park So I think we're gonna actually head down in this general direction Actually before we actually embark into the park I think we should do the dragon's lair which was the ride we kind of seen from the outside of the park Where you see the gigantic dragon animatronic duke and it's a lagoon style boat ride and it's really fun It's good for you know kids, but I love it. It's actually one of my favorite rides here in the park Here we go. We're gonna get into our little boat. Oh boy One of duke's favorite things to do is play hide and seek with his friends There we go, we're off. We got bonbon back there somewhere. I said get your own boat. I like this It's so peaceful. Can you find a gd of wana? He is green and likes to hide on the mountain This is so much fun. Actually, I love it and they have like this medieval like music actually playing You've got a turtle over there and an rb's right there It's actually a really really peaceful ride like I'm just sitting back relaxing Going for a nice little boat ride on a lagoon with the dragon Look at bonbon right here What's your name? Keep your eye out for alley the alligator Or tucker the tortoise Oh, I think we're coming up on a closer look at duke There he is I don't think he's moving. He usually moves. Let's see if we can catch him catch him in motion Thanks for visiting the dragon's lair. We hope you have a dutch wonderful day. I should have used that a dutch wonderful day The dragon's lair is such a fun ride like It makes me happy. I like little boat rides like that It's kind of like a dark ride because you go into a cave there And it's great to see duke up there and just kind of sit back and relax Now we have to move along. Here is one of the roller coasters that I was talking about. I think that's merlin's mayhem And uh, that was a fun ride. We did it last year. We'll try to do all of them Also, I want to go in that wonderhouse. Oh, yeah, what was that? I don't know what it was called Yeah, it's kind of like the houdini house at uh six flags That was so trippy and I loved it and then maybe a train ride too. I do like myself a little train ride Another really cool thing they have here is bubba bear and the badland band show And it looks like they have a couple showings per day So we're gonna try to catch that five o'clock one But this is a great animatronic show and I love it. I I'm really hoping we're gonna be able to catch it We're gonna have to probably backtrack a little bit, but it's gonna be well worth it Since we started off with the dragon's lair, I think we might head on over to the kingdom coaster Which is a big gigantic purple wooden roller coaster and I love wooden roller coasters. They scare me They scare youtube on but we're gonna we're gonna go there next Like I said in the beginning of the video They pay homage to a lot of the beautiful pennsylvania dutch Culture and also amish and men and knights and it's really awesome And they have tons of different little theater boxes all around where you can actually see some Little mini tiny shows. Look at this I love this make me happy maybe next time You just don't like all the chipping and goxing all the time The kingdom coaster is 55 feet tall and has a top speed of 40 miles per hour That's actually pretty decent for a wooden roller coaster And here it comes the kingdom coaster.  Can we ride the bumper cars? So I think today's the day we're gonna do some bumper cars here at dutch wonderland But it's like can we do bumper cars? Why do you want to do bumper cars so bad? I don't know. We always like to duke it out on the bumper. Oh, you do. Oh, we're gonna duke it out, huh? As we're making our way over to actually do the bumper cars they have a gigantic pretzel opportunity like a photo opportunity I'm not too sure why but I do love pretzels What's this pretzel for the pretzel is to eat if you eat pretzels You won't be hungry That's that's that's a life quote right there.  You won't be hungry But you don't just wonder why there was this gigantic pretzel and that's why because if you eat them It won't be hungry Enough of the pretzel business now it's time for the bumper cars now bond's excited. Look at our These bumper cars don't joke around they're coming in pretty hot Look at this All right, we got to pick ourselves a bumper car. I'm gonna take the white one over here I see her she's back there. Look at her. She's creeping up on me.  She's just driving around in circles. This isn't mario Oh no There we go. I'm coming in I'm coming in. Oh, no, we're drifting. We're drifting Ah, we're drifting there you go It just ended That's so funny I got stuck for a long period of time and I just saw no I saw you just driving around in a circle Like you were doing laps. I was actually stuck stuck and then I came after you but I was coming I was coming for it Now it's time to make our way over to exploration island and they have some gondolas over here Nice little casual Boat ride kind of want to do that not without Duke the dragon. Just kind of a nice little boat ride on its own They also have a little like speedway. Look at this Bonnie want to do the speedway or you want to do the gondolas Bonnie wants to do the cars so we're heading to the turnpike the good old dutch wonderland turnpike I remember coming here with my mom last year and she got stuck in this with her E.C.V. And there's a bunch of animatronic dinosaurs back there in the woods We're actually going to drive by them But I think we'll have to stop in there and take a look at them because I like dinosaurs These cars are no bumping bond No bumping bond it says it right there That one has Duke's lagoon as the pennsylvania license plate. I think they all had different license plates Oh, yeah, this one's car 15. Just random car 15 This one gets Duke's lagoon. This one gets car 15 Looks like here's your trusty steed for this this evening Oh, and I got that one. See you later, mr. Toad Here we go Stay in car Oh, these ones are so smooth like you can control them really good and it's very beautiful out here We got a curve ahead Oh, and it also smells like Smells like a farm That beautiful Lancaster air right there. I love it Kalmanur and gasoline crossing There's Bonnie up there. We're gonna try to catch up to our oh with a gondola boat ride looks really nice Look at that very peaceful relaxing. You see some of the dinosaurs. Is that blue looks like a velociraptor over there Get your motor running Head out on the highway Little things in life that make you happy Like these little cars. I love it Like, you know, you could drive all day long on an actual turnpike But for some reason you hop on a fake one and you just instantly smile I just realized you can basically ride in a boat ride in a car and then also Ride in a monorail because there's a monorail track all right there right here all together Looks like we've got food at the next exit.  You got a smile Let this moment pass you by check out your turnpike photo There we go slow and steady slow and steady excellent Now since we're still over in this area, let's go check out some of the prehistoric predators Little dinosaur animatronics. I love animatronics. And like I said, they have an animatronic band here Kind of like Chuck E cheese, but I like it a lot Welcome to Jurassic Park Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo Haha Triceratops not rdino Does move Look at this guy. Oh, I remember this one. It was scary Listen to that Wait, I think they're motion like sensors I remember this being terrifying Bon, yeah, they're motion sensors. Come on, you gotta set it off. Maybe you have to walk away and then come back to it. We're approaching. That is horrifying, isn't it? See, we got another big dino coming up on our scope. This one's a vegetarian though. Very good, Bon. Thank you. I think the sensors broke on this one because they're just screaming over here. Look at this little paw right here. Oh, he's shaking a little bit. All jokes aside, this is amazing back here. Like, if I was a kid, I would love to come hang out here. I could probably spend hours in here as an adult. What are you doing? Are you hypnotizing it? Like, it's, the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Oh, his eyes actually close. Look at that. Oh, his poor little hand is broken though. His bone is protruding. Do you see that? Poor little guy. It's okay. Yes! It is actually very rainy in Pennsylvania. So these things are actually outside all year round. There's no coverage. I mean, you have a little tree coverage, but they're basically at the mercy of the Pennsylvania air. Thanks for exploring with us. Wait, that doesn't say thanks for exploring with us. I'll just add that on there. That's okay. Like we saw when we were doing the cars, next exit was the food. So I think we're gonna get something to eat. And since we saw that big gigantic pretzel, maybe a pretzel. They've got a nice little spot here called the Penley's Pub, little pub area here. They've got, of course, the good old yingling, some pretzels, everything you need. I've been having such a great time in this park today. Like there was no waits for any attractions. We basically just walk right on it and it's very quiet, very peaceful. Dutch Wonderland's a nice spot. Like I said, it's a great family park. Looks like they've got a whole bunch of different pretzels.  Lots of good stuff. I think we're just gonna stick to the giant pretzel though, right? Just a giant pretzel, we're good. And holy moly, take a look at this. Here is the pretzel. Isn't that huge? That's a gigantic pretzel. That's a giant pretzel, just like they said. And I love it. It's got lots of butter on it, salt, comes with mustard and cheese. I'm all in. All right, Bonnie, wishbone it. Wait, wait, you gotta take it from this side. There we go. Let's see who's gonna get the bigger side. It's hot. And a kind of three-pole. I won. Look at that. Oh, it's so hot. It is hot. I mean, at least it's a fresh pretzel though. Look at this. We're going in. I'm cheesing it. That's a good pretzel. Bonnie's going all in on that cheese. Look at that. Seriously, this is a really good pretzel. $13. It's bigger than any of the pretzels at Disney, I think.  The pangu-pangu pretzel that's over in the Valley of Mora and Animal Kingdom, I think it's a little bit bigger than this, but I like it. What do you think? It's a really good pretzel. Yeah? Yeah. Do you like the cheese? Yeah. As we were sitting here snacking down on a pretzel, realized that it's almost five o'clock and we gotta get back to the bear show. The bear show? It's like Dutch Wonderland's version of Country Bearers. And then we're gonna ride Merlin's Mayhem. But first, this is important. This is important stuff to me. Oh no, and it actually looks like the Dutch Wonderhouse is closed today, but that's the house that I said is like Houdini's Escape over at Six Flags Great Adventure. Looks like we're just in time for the show and it's a sold out show, only high class stuff here. The Bubba Bear in the Badland Band Show. Woo wee. You ready? Are you excited? Yep. Get up close, Bonnie. I'm close, yeah. There we go. This is the one. Oh? It's sure good to see ya. We're here to do our best to please ya. We've sung to sing and tell to tell them. I got box and bands as well and sneak a look where your room it is and buck keep marnum. You're supposed to be doing the introduction. Gee, that's right. Err, now what was I saying? Oh yes, we've sung to sing and tell to tell them. No one does it happen as well with Bubba and the Badland Band.  Oh no. Oh ho ho. We just got off the floor and didn't listen and watch the fire and the cobwebs build us a gal down the road for grandmas. And her band has salt boats and down each hip. We've had a lot of fun. I sure never had that much fun at my grandmas. Hmm, feathers for putting on head. My grandma taught me to play poker. Your grandma was a gambler, right? Grandma, she struck more gold than a prospector. Oh, this tale's starting to smell fishy. How come she didn't teach you how to win? No one wants. I remember it well. It was July 9, 1990. Oh ho ho ho. These are good for a professional riverboat. Well, life on the farm is kind of laid back.  Certainly the rise is pretty in the sand. Thank God I'm a country boy. Don't fiddle when the sun's coming up. I got kicks on the grillo.  Thank God I'm a country boy. When the work's all done. Having a great time here today. This here is gonna be a request show. I like to have on the radio. Yeah, that's right Homer. I've done received so many requests to play something special for someone special. Then we decided to go out with a special show. We heap nice guys. Hi, I'm Jim. Our first, this number is the big mama from Tuts. Here we go. Bubba Bear and the Badland Band was amazing. Do you love them? Yes, I do. I couldn't stop, I couldn't look away. I was so captivated by them. And like I said, kind of reminded me of the Country Bear Jamboree a little bit. A little mix there with Chuck E. Cheese Band, you know? And it's so much fun and it's just automatic. Like it just goes on. Maybe if there's somebody that hits a switch, but that is so awesome. Now it's time for Merlin's Mayhem. There it is, Merlin's Mayhem. This is the newest ride here. And I don't think we could film on here so I'll use some stock footage. Look at that. Glad right through the air there. I actually love the queue for Merlin's Mayhem too.  Oh, there's Merlin himself. Come on in, right through here. All right. Glad you came. Thank you. I'm glad I came too. We head right on in. Public notice. Mayhem is missing if he has seen Contact Merlin. All right, cameras have to go away, but it is time. Kind of like in between like kid and like teen. Like honestly, that's like a really good first steel coaster for a lot of kids. Like it's not so bad. It's really quick. I think it's like less than a minute or maybe it's like a minute 30, but it's really smooth, not too bad at all. I like it. Like I said, it's a perfect family park. I also like how they have these little storybook houses.  My Rebecca has the first time with hers. Brad, she begs like her mom and grandma, but the shoe flat pies don't make for her still. So squiggly. I would have loved to take a ride on the railroad, but it looks like the railroad is kind of closed at the moment. It's not running today. So it might be down for technical difficulties, but yeah, so far I've had a great day at the park. And now I think we're gonna start making our way out. As you make your way out, you actually get to go back through the castle. And this is the gift shop. So we're actually gonna be able to kind of browse around a little bit. Maybe grab Marcel a Duke. Oh, what's your favorite character? They have Duke the Dragon, Princess Brooke, Sir Brandon, and the Night Merlin. Look at that. There's all the characters there. I like Duke. Who's your favorite? I like Duke. You like Duke too? Yeah. Well, there's Duke right there. Should we get Mama Duke? Mama Duke. Should we get Mama Duke? Let's get Mama Duke. Mama Duke.  And I think we're gonna be leaving with a Duke for my mom. A little Mama Duke. A little Mama Duke. On my way out, I ran into my friend Kent and he works here, he's security here and he gave me some pins from some defunct rides here. Dutch Wonderland, they had a space shuttle there. Oh, and then they had the, Skyline, this is still actually here. Here, Mom, we got you a Mama Duke. Oh my God. It's Duke. It's Duke the Dragon. You see him right here? Look, you see him there? That's Duke. Before we leave Dutch Wonderland, which is right here, I wanted to just hop over to show you guys the Cartoon Network Hotel. This is it right here. I mean, this looks really, really fancy. I love the Cartoon Network and it has a little bit of everything in there. They even have some dining experience, a Cartoon Network themed pool. And then it's kind of like a Motile style layout there, but I'd love to come back and check this out, especially because it's right next to Dutch Wonderland. Say goodbye, Dutch Wonderland. Hi. We didn't even get to ride the monorail. Oh. Oh. And with that, I think we are done here today at Dutch Wonderland. It's time to go. Mom came to pick me and bomb on him. Like I said, I feel so funny. Like it's a kid. I feel like a kid again.  And she had fun. The Tangor outlets are down here and very popular outlets since she went shopping. And yeah, had a lot of fun at Dutch Wonderland. A lot of the things I wanted to do today, the park, they weren't open. So like the Dutch Wonderland house, that was so fun. That wasn't open or the train. So we'll definitely have to come back, but this is a perfect park for kids and families to come. And it's a lot of fun. I just kind of like the nostalgic feeling of it. So I hope you guys enjoyed the video. I enjoyed making it. We'll see you again next time. Bye. They see me rolling. As we were actually leaving Lancaster, I came across a homemade root beer stand. And this is actually like right on the side of the roads here. And all you have to do, they kinda, it's on an honor system, but you put your money in the box right here. And then here is the different prices for $1.75 to get a small and then a large is $5.50. You get a refund for jars you return and no Sunday sales. It's all inside here. So I think we're gonna try some cold homemade root beer. Here it is. Old fashioned root beer on the side of the road. Gonna crack it open and give it a sip. Nothing like some good old sasperilla. Well, this isn't sasperilla, but it's a good old root beer. It's good.


who you may have seen on Fox News, Fox Business Network, RT America, Cheddar TV and CVS News. She's an expert stock market analyst and the founder and owner of an international education company where she teaches people how to successfully trade the stock market. Her trading methodology is based on one strategy called Golden Gaps, which pinpoint institutional money in the stock market here to present, make fast profits trading 30 minutes a day is Ms. Melissa Armo of the Stock Swoosh. Welcome back to Trader's Corner, Melissa.  Let me move the mic closer. Can you hear me now? Much better. Great. Thanks so much for having me, Rob. Thanks so much for having me on today. Welcome everyone. Very interesting day today in the market. Lots of earnings right now. It's currently earnings season. I'm seeing everybody's chats. If you have questions, you can plop them in the room and we're going to get started. So today I'm going to talk about how you can make fast profits trading 30 minutes a day. What we did today was we actually traded eBay and Love. They were two earnings trades. They were short. If you want to take a look at the charts, you can look at them. I didn't have time to plop them in today's presentation, but they were both earnings gaps.  I do day trades on margin. I also do options and I'm taking options using momentum. So the whole theme of today's lecture is going to be about, excuse me, is going to be about trading momentum because that is how you can make money. And if you pull up, like I said, eBay, for example, is a great example today of momentum to the downside. This is me. If you have questions, you can email me on the list at thestockswitch.com. You can also call me at 9 to 9, 3200 gap. You can follow me on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, or Skype, and as Rob said, I do appear on TV everywhere. I try to put when I'm on TV on my Twitter or Facebook, so you can follow me there. And then I put the clips on my YouTube channel as well.  Never give up. If your dream is truly to be a successful trader, then you have to keep going, okay? Because you can be successful. Many times people are not successful because they don't have a good strategy. They may have other things that they do that they make mistakes, maybe they get their sizing wrong or something like that. But overall, if you have more winners than losers, you will be successful. And how do you get that? You have to have a good strategy, okay? So I developed this strategy that I trade for myself, never to teach anyone, and then it ended up developing where I had a voice to talk on TV and YouTube, and then I started a business. But I spent three years putting my system together for myself. And so, you know, the fact is that I've been teaching people now for 11 years as well, and you can be successful. So think about that, stay positive, if you've been trying to do this, never, never give up until you get to the point where you've made it. So how do you make money fast? Trading momentum. So if you'd like to learn how to trade momentum, you've come to the right place today. Also I prefer to short, even though I am going to talk about a couple of longs today that we did. But like I said, today we did eBay and Love, which were both nice shorts. One of the reasons I prefer to short is because short moves, moves to the downside happen faster than moves to the upside most of the time, I'd say 99% of the time. And again, shorting can be profitable and fun because of the fact that panic comes into the stock. So, for example, if you short 2,000 shares of a stock and it drops to a dollar, you make what? $2,000. And that can happen sometimes in one minute, two minutes, five minutes. And that's it. Then you have the rest of the day to yourself, and you can do whatever you want.  And I'm talking to you, and it's almost one o'clock here, Eastern time, after this I have the rest of the day to myself. So it is a nice career if you trade and you learn how to do it and you develop a way to go into the market or learn mine that you can make money as quickly as possible so that you can be done in 30 minutes. But time is money. And so the idea of training is to make it as fast as you can and you also want to get in and out of trades fast so they are not affected by things that could hurt your trades. For example, the market, our economic data, or something like where the Fed raises interest rates, that can hurt your trades.  I'm going to show you the results here today. I didn't have the last week in here, but year to date through what is July 18th, I'll update this and put a video on YouTube sometime in the next couple of days. For 2023, year to date, $349,794 are the stats this year. So far, this has been a good year. We are mostly short, like I said. These are all day trades on margin. So again, how do you make it? How do you become successful trading? You have to be consistent. You have to have more wins than losses. And on top of that, you have to have some very large wins. The market can be a magical thing if you know what to do. And what do I mean by that? What do I mean by magical? You're not really working.  OK, so it's almost like the smartest people are the ones that win, OK? So we always want to develop our skill set. So my skill set is that I can predict price action in something before it happens. That is a skill set that I've developed over 15 years. And I see it in the gap. If you come and learn from me, you're going to learn my skill set. But once you develop those skills, it's magical because you're really not going to work and slaving or toiling away for 40 hours a week or more at a job to make this kind of money. And it also sometimes is very, very magical because of the fact that you can make an astounding amount of money with very little risk very, very quickly. Do I get trades with the dream target every day? No. Do I sometimes get trades to what I call the dream target? Yes. And every time that happens, I'm reminded why I love to do this, why trading is so fun. And then, of course, the people that are with me that are getting my calls recognize that, too. So I'm going to get over what has been a trade that we did last week. It was the biggest trade of the year so far. It doesn't mean that we won't have another trade like this this year, but we might. It was an options trade. And I'm going to go over here advanced risk that I talk a little bit later about our beginner risk for this trade, too. We went long Microsoft. We did Microsoft calls at the very, very moment. I was tapping this day at my desk and I called on the options news that are Microsoft calls and it went and it went big and it went fast. And we're talking today about making money fast. And we're also talking about momentum. If you saw the news on Microsoft that hit last week on this particular day, it was about a week ago, then you know exactly what I'm talking about. It had earnings this week. Actually, it was the night of the 25th down the 26th. And we actually shorted Microsoft here. But back in here on the 18th of July, we did a trade that so far was the biggest trade of the year because of the return and investment of the train for every single person that did it. It was a huge trade. It was minimal cost and it went very big, very fast and very quick. And we're going to go over it. So what happened here, Microsoft? This was a gap up. Okay. So again, the date was July 18th. So we did the Microsoft 360 calls on the 18th that expired on the Friday. So I trade options. Like I said, I'm trading options very different than a lot of people because I'm trading options based on momentum. What does that mean? It means I win or lose in the trades. I'm not worried about deltas or this thing or that thing or fancy dancing kinds of things to do. I see the momentum is going to come into the stock and I take it and I get in and I get out. So again, how fast it goes or how big it goes, I have an idea. You know, I have my targets and see it. Sometimes things go bigger than we think. This did go. So the cost was 50 cents. Somebody on the newsletter actually paid 30 cents for this. It was ridiculous. So this is an advanced trader risk. This is a lot of risk. $9,000 for the contract position of total 180 contracts. You could have bought more. You could have bought less. The point is, you got a very low risk, low cost option that went huge. This was 1,700%. This wasn't even the high of the options chain with an exit. It almost got to 10. This was a trade that I helped people through. I sent like 10 emails on this for the time I sent the call up until the point that it ran up. This was a momentum trade and I'm going to show you the one minute in a little bit. But the newsletter, if you want to trade options with me, I sent it out with the strength, the expiration date, the call, this went out right when I saw it, right when I saw the news, right when it hit. So let's take a look at this chart. Here it is. So this is it. It ran up. See ya? So this ran all the way up. Dream targeting this was 365 and it happened to go there within an hour. So again, while that was not necessarily planned, as soon as it happened, I realized that it was going. If you had risked $1,000 on this trade, you would have made 17 grand. So this trade made everybody's week, made everybody's month. Okay, this was the biggest trade of the year. The only way you wouldn't have made that much money in this trade is if you didn't do it. And I'm funny enough, there was a couple people in the newsletter that missed it, you know, that they were in meetings or whatever because it was a late trade. Typically I trade in the morning, but in this case here, I did do this trade when I saw it, which was, you know, close to the lunch. That's not always the case. This is an example though of momentum. It's awesome example of what? It's an example of institutional buying, okay? Institutional money coming in and buying the stock. So while that doesn't happen all the time, okay, this can happen and it can happen like that. And again, this is what I'm talking about, about the magic of trading. So while people should never blow up their accounts and risk all their money in a trade, I know that people are very often frustrated, particularly people that have smaller accounts, they get frustrated when they are not seeing the results that they want. You can't push it in the market. For example, if you have $5,000 in a trading account and an options account, you should be risking probably for around $500 per trade. That would have made you money in this, still well over 1,000%. Sometimes what I see is people that have small accounts and they want to risk half their account because they have a small account. You can't do that. When you get the big ones is when you will have the opportunity to grow a small account and then with consistency, meaning having consistent wins and having more wins than losses, which again is a whole point. This was an awesome call. This was an awesome trade. Ironically, we did Microsoft as well this week too. We did it yesterday and we shorted it but this was an options trade. And again, I have an options newsletter but the way that I trade options is the same way similar that I'm doing day trades is I'm trading momentum. The benefit of doing options is that you can open an options account with a list of $2,000 and you don't need a margin account to do options. And people want to get moves in stocks like NVIDIA, like Microsoft, like the QQQs and not have to worry about taking the trades on margin where you can do them as options. So how can you make that much money that fast? Again, trading momentum and getting the timing right. Being able to predict what it was going to do which I did and then taking it, no hesitation, getting in and getting out. So I also put this in here, this is NVIDIA and I'm just letting you know right now we just did this today. So I called on the options newsletter, NVIDIA calls, the 470 calls, this trade is up, this trade is working. This is a nice call. Again, how do I take trades based on momentum in the gap? So what happened in NVIDIA? NVIDIA closed here yesterday, gapped up this morning, rally and is rally, okay? So again, this is a long, this is a call similar to Microsoft. It is not going within an hour like Microsoft. Not every trade goes like that but this is a nice solid momentum trade in an option, okay, in NVIDIA. So here I'm giving you a free idea right now here today if you happen to be listening to me right now, okay? This is a good trade. So again, for options for me, it's about the idea of being able to get cash or move overnight if I want to hold it to get a bigger move or just the low cost of doing an option versus doing a trade on margin. Something like NVIDIA, for example, over $470 a share is expensive to do a margin. While I'll do it, it's a heck of a lot cheaper to do it as an options trade. So how do you get these kinds of results? How do I make these picks? I have the checklist. I have a system that I use to trade and I go through and apply it each and every day. When before I take a trade, I go through the checklist, most of the work I do in the pre-market in the morning, I will go through, I will see what is moving, I will look at the gap ups, I'll have a look at the gap downs and I will make a choice of what to do and what to trade. And I prefer to short just because of the speed of execution of moves to the downside. But like I showed you here today, NVIDIA is a good long, Microsoft was a good long, I will go long too, okay? But I qualify my picks using a checklist. I think it's important for people to get clear where their financial goals, if you are not meeting your financial goals trading, you may be wasting your time. If you're back and forth for the first seven months of the year, we're almost at the end of July. Next week is August, on the Tuesday is August 1st. If you're not meeting your goals so far this year, it's a good time to just step back because you still have five more months left in the air that you can meet your goals, you can achieve your goals, you can get there, but you've got to change course. And if you're not on the right course to make the money that you wanna make in the market, chances are whatever you're doing, whatever strategy you're using isn't working. And you have time to still pull out a year, okay? You can turn your year around in a week, in a month, but it doesn't make any sense to continue trading a system that isn't working if you're losing. But if you're gonna trade and be profitable, you need a system to pick the best trade daily that will capture the largest move. Just like I showed you with the Microsoft and today with the new media, you can't trade everything every day even in a trend or even with the market. And look how tricky the market can be too. You need a system that produces results in order to make money. Trading, you need a system that produces results in a volatile market, which I still think we're in, even though we're in a bullish market. I still think this market is volatile, okay? Meaning it could break off at a moment's notice in any second for many, many reasons. Could be Ukraine, Russia, could be they continue raising rates, which everyone today's convinced that they're not gonna do, but I disagree. I think they will raise rates at least one more time this year. So again, all of this creates a volatile environment to trade, but that is opportunity for you to trade as a trader, okay? So my system and what I do, how I make the picks, like I said, is based on gaps. So again, what is a gap? Here's an example of what we did yesterday. This was Microsoft. Stock closed here, gap down, fell, boom. We shorted it and we also bought puts in it, okay? It fell. So again, a put is a short. Just as an options trade, we also shorted this as a trade on margin, the day trade broke. I like to short, I prefer to short, but like again, sometimes I will go long. That was the long back from the other week. Now, what is a gap? A gap is a break in continuity, a difference, a divergent, a disparity. What is a gap? It's stock gaps from the opening price today is different from the closing price of the previous day's trading. A gap is a break in the price action from one day to the next, simple.  Something rarely closes at 3202 and then opens the next day at 3202, okay? But do I trade every gap in the world? Is every single gap that happens predictable? No. No, so I'm looking for the good ones, okay? So I'm looking for the good ones. And that's where the rating system that I developed over the course of three years comes in. If anyone has any questions, I'm just looking under the question section. You can plop them in the room as I'm going on as well. But getting back to what I'm saying, the importance of a system is that is what you will follow each and every day. That tells you that it has a high odds of working. So while I know that my system sometimes will result in some trades losing, like I showed you the stats for the year we had losses in there, the ones of parentheses or losses, the trades lost. We do have trades that lose, but I know if I follow the system, I will have more winners and losers. So that is why a system's important. Otherwise what I find most people doing is trying to trend trade by the dip or people are trying to go with the news of something. And many, many times what happens is the reflection of the news or whatever the news was is already built into the price. It's too late. Too late to take the trade, too late to do the eBay or whatever it happens to be. And then people don't get the momentum either. So I developed a system called the golden gap, which pinpoints the direction that a stock is gonna go. The golden gap trading system looks at 26 points to examine and rate the stock, that is gapping. This is how you can find which gap is the best one to trade each day. I do focus on shorting, but the reason I point out the longs that I did recently is because the longs that I did recently, again, the video's on, that has a huge potential. And Microsoft was a huge trade. So because I focus so much on shorting, I very easily can see then when an excellent bullish move happens because I'm so used to reading weakness. So I've become very good at reading strength because I know how to read weakness so well. And I rarely go long, okay? And when I happen to go long, it's usually a phenomenal trade. So again, we're not going long every day. We're mostly shorting, but I showed you two nice longs one is on, the new video play. Anyways, why deal I like to short? Just because of the fact that I can get in that quickly. Fast trades are the best in this market or any market. You know, I mean, again, if someone could say, well, you can make $2,000 in five minutes, or you can make $2,000 in two days, you'll take the two minutes, okay? And again, the money is in yours until the fat lady sings and you're out of the trade and you book it. I mean, so again, holding, holding, holding is buying and sell mentality and holding trades really doesn't work in any market, right? And you know, not in this environment, didn't work in 2022. And even though the trend of the market is up, even though it's bullish, things slosh around a lot. But shorting, again, shorting what I love about shorting and selling, particularly selling pressure like we saw recently in Netflix, Tessa, we shorted those stocks last week. Those were earnings trades. It's like a pressure cooker, like a fire, like an emergency where people wanna exit and sell their positions, okay? And so that's why stocks go very, very, very, very quickly. There's, it's rare that you see something called panic buying coming into stock. Actually that is what happened in Microsoft. So Microsoft went so big, so fast, so quick because it was panic buying. In fact, let me just go back to this woman and just show you. This is so rare. It almost never happens, but this is what happened here. Again, we cashed as quickly as we could, but down here was around 345-ish. The news came out and it ran up more than 20 points. It was like 21 points. And that happened within a little over an hour. So what happened in Microsoft was something called panic buying. That is very, very rare. Panic selling, okay, is not that rare. It actually happens a lot, like all the time, okay? And that is what I'm looking for in most of the moves and most of the things that I wanted to do. So again, it's the whole concept of being able to make money fast that is important and why I veer to the downside first. Now let's talk about last week's trades. So Microsoft was one of the trades from last week. Again, I have an options newsletter. The trades gets emailed to you in my time if you want to do them. I'm using a beginner risk here to show people if you had risked $1,000 on average and all the trades I called for last week's expiration what would you have made? This again included the Microsoft trade but even if you take the Microsoft trade out which was one that we did, it still was a great wing. So the average ROI for last week was 333%. We're gonna go over all of the trades, okay? This was the expiration date for 721. It was 100% win ratio. There were eight trades, zero break even, zero losers last wing. And this is an average risk of $1,000. You would have had to be able to take all the trades and you would have had to do all the trades. So first we did BABA. So I called this on the 14th, it expired on the 21st. I'm usually doing the weeklies, okay? Like today's Thursday. Then the video that we did today is out till next Friday, August 4th. I did not do an expiration date of tomorrow. Anyways, the cost is pretty reasonable. 215 contracts, again, average risk of debt you take should be close to the same every day. $5,075 sold at foreign profit $925. That's a good solid trade. Return of investment was 86%. So let's take a look at it. Again, I called a put in this on the Friday the 14th. So let's take a look at it. This is BABA.  You would get out of mid to the trade on the Monday into the gap down. It was up a tiny bit here on this day. And again, do you see where it opened, where it dropped through the strike? And again, it put is a short, okay? So you would have taken the trade on the Friday, exited it on a Monday. Now, if that had gone more on Friday, it would have gotten out of it Friday. It started to go late, nice trade either way. And actually, again, you could have held it a little bit longer, all right? So that was a good one. Again, this is momentum. In the case of BABA, instead of having it one day, okay, it happened in the gaps.  This was cheap too, I thought. $1.76 contracts cost 10.20, sold at three. You could have made $780. This was a 76% ratio on investment. So let's look at the 135 Amazons that expired last week. So here was the gap. So Amazon, again, this was a call. So this was a long, okay?  Again, this ran up through the strength. Again, you're playing the momentum. And you're always exiting a trade into the momentum, not against the momentum. That's a stinky exit, okay? In other words, you would not get out of Amazon here. It'll be bad. You want to get out of a call when it's moving up. Same thing with NVIDIA, if you do the NVIDIAs today. Here we did NVIDIA this week too. We did the 450 NVIDIAs. Again, these are a little prancing. Cross was 10.75, one contract cost 10.75. This was a really, really good trade too. Sold at 31 profit, 2025 return on investment for this NVIDIA was 188%. Let's take a look at it. The 450s, again, here, show closed here, gapped up, rallied, had the pop, out, done. Again, this gapped up here ran up, boom. And again, this is momentum. The momentum is moving higher. So here we bought the 450s on the day that I called it. Then it moved up, gapped up, moved up, you're out. And again, if you can't watch trains, I do have targets on the newsletter. If you can't watch trains, what you can do is put a sell order, a sell order at trades at 50%, 100%, 75%, and just go look at it or check it. We also did the spy 450s. Again, it expired on the 21st. This was a call, interestingly enough. 220, five cost 1100, sold at 340. Again, this was 55%. Let's take a look at it. This is the spy 450s. So this feels like a long time ago here. The 13th was here. Closed here, gapped up, ran up, boom, boom, boom, popped. Actually, I got out of this before the last day. If I had held this, I would have made more money. I did not hold this into the very last day. I like to get out of things before the last day, but this did actually make more on the day of when it continued up here. The QQQs, the 378s calls. Cost was three, four, risk was 1200, 125%. This was a good move. This was the 378s on the 13th. Again, stack closed here, gapped up, rallying, had the pop. Boom. Again, this actually kept going. You couldn't have even held this right up until the very last point if you had wanted to. But again, every trade I look at, 100%, 75%, that's money. Take it, book it, take it, book it, take it, book it. You chunk it out. That's how you put together a day. That's how you put together a week. And you could have actually done all these trades and got out of all of them at the same time, all the calls. We did the Google 130 calls. Profit was 660. Again, this was the same day, the 13th. Let's take a look at it. Here we are. Closed here, gapped up, rallied, boom. So again, this was Google, ran up, it's a call, it's a long. And this was the Microsoft that we just talked about, but this is with a lot less of a risk. So $0.50, if you pay it again, somebody paid $0.30 for the other one. 20 contracts, it was $1,000, sold at $9, $17,000 you could have made. And so this was just a phenomenal trade. 1,700%, you would have taken the trade here. You would have gotten a run up and you would have gotten out. And again, you're exiting the trade into momentum. You were still up the next day, but this was a terrible, terrible, terrible exit because of the fact that you were up so much money so quick to be able to get Microsoft at $0.50 is insane too, quite frankly. But again, at the time I called it, it was very, very, very far away from the 360s, which is kind of ironic. And I did have $365 and the letter is the dream target. It basically got there. It got to $366 in change. A golden gap is a gap that rates 26 points or more per my 26-point rating system. So a golden gap is my strategy that I teach in my class. So that's what I was talking about earlier, whoever was asking that. It's a gap that is predictable, that has a big move, and that has a momentum move, and that has a move in the same direction of the gap. For example, we went long and did calls in Microsoft because it had a gap up. We shorted it and did a put in Microsoft here because it was a gap down. I've never gone against the gap, especially if it rates per the 26-point system. So it is a gap that is considered like finding gold in the market. Actually, a friend of mine years and years ago when I started developing the system was the one that coined the term. He said, Melissa, this is like finding gold, and now I'm getting my system back. So things kind of develop and happen in your life where you don't expect them, and all of a sudden you're doing it. When I started trading, I was day trading. I wasn't doing options at all, and I had made an enormous amount of money doing options, adding to my day trade, simply because of the fact that many times I get blues like Microsoft, or I get something like an overnight trade that is a big trade that I capture overnight by holding the gap. Again, NVIDIA was a good trade, but we've done some this year where some have gone so big in holding them overnight. Many times they happen really from a Friday to a Monday, which is kind of interesting too, holding something over the weekend. That was like that. That was a good drop, that gap down overnight from the Friday to the Monday. So then JPM, we did, this was a little one. Again, I think I got out of this a little bit too early. This kept going. We did the 147s, I dig it out of this too early. What day did I do this? I did this on Tuesday. I definitely got out of this too early. Here was this, called the 147 calls and I got out of it in the pushup and it kept going. Look, it kept going. So again, I booked profit in that JPM, but theoretically it went 10 points through the strike. I did not hold that all the way through there. The 21st is here. Even the last day of you were still in it. It was nine points through the strike. So again, I'm more of a get-out-and-book-it kind of girl, but a couple of these you could have held longer. So someone's asking about the system. The system is called the Golden Gap. The Golden Gap is a 26-point rating system that I used to find what to stock to trade each day. How to make the pick? How did I know that the right one today was eBay? The right one was love. We also looked at EW. You could look at it. I didn't do it. I thought it was thin and spready, but that one worked too. And so again, I'm looking at hundreds and hundreds of thousands of things every morning and then I make a small launch list that I rate. I'm not rating thousands of gaps. There's no need to, okay? Very quickly, I can scan through lots and lots of stuff in the morning and then I make a small list and those are the ones that I rate. But if I could come up with 126 points in order to never ever get anything wrong that I would do it. But I do get very good results using the 26 points and then I wait until they open to get the setup. So if I don't get the setup, I'm not taking the train. That's another thing too. So my system teaches you how to find stocks that have a high probability of directional bias for the entire day in the gap. Again, I just showed you in a video. That's going right now. Big moves on the day. Obviously you want a big move so that you can take a trade position for 500 shares, 1000 shares, even 3000 shares and make money without having to borrow an excess of amount of money to train. Early confirmation of bias and the move quickly in the morning, out of the gate and precise entries will follow through which I'm taking on the one minute chart. And again, I teach that in the class too. Now, this was a short that we did. This was a while back. I didn't have time to put the eBay in here. This was CCL. This was a short close to your gap down. We did this at the end of June. This was a day trade. So I shorted this on margin. This is pretty cheap. You have to have a margin account to do day trades. I call the trades live in the room. So in the room, I say 45 by 80. You gotta know we're new in CCL. So you say, okay, and you know exactly when you're doing this, whether the stop's 35 cents, 45 cents, 55 cents, that's how much times the share quantity that you're taking that you're at risk. So 5,000 shares times the stop, the difference between the bid and the entry and the stop is the position size times the risk. So if you wanna risk a thousand, $1,000, then you would take less than 5,000 shares. Now we did an ad with this because it was going in our favor, cost average debt, 14.62 cost average it up. 14 was a target, broke 14, got out, great trade. Again, $6,700 and something like that, you could have done an option in that too if you wanted to. But in this case here, I don't know how much cheaper it really would have been. You just would have done it as an option if you didn't have a margin account. Then we did buy-do. Buy-do has had a lot of moves. The day we did the buy-do was 6.29. We shorted it at 1.3655. Then we did the ad. And let's take a look at the 6.29 buy-do. Stock puts your gap down. We shorted it. Get the drop. Again, you could have bought a put. This is a day trade. Again, the idea of getting in and out quick is that you make the money fast. You do need a margin account to do this. And again, $136 a share could have taken 1,000 shares. Still made good money. But these are all trades that happen very fast. They're all trades that happen in momentum. They're all trades mostly that are short except for the few that I'm talking about because shorting and selling pressure happens. It comes in quickly and fast. If the market decides to break off, if it decides to go and move to the downside, it's gonna happen quick. It's gonna happen fast. And it's not gonna give any warning whatsoever at all. And that could happen. Even though people don't think it could, it could. And when it does, I'll be all over it. So we did not go along the market today. The market gapped up today. I did not think it was a good gap up to go along, but we did theoretically gap up today in the market. In fact, you could have shorted the gap up in the market today and made money in the morning. We did not do that. I do not go against the gap. But how I look at everything is based on this checklist. This is the rating system, which I named the golden gap because it is like finding gold in the market because you can get big, big, big moves and big trades. You have to have the right pick. You're screwed without the right pick anyways. You're losing more than you're winning. And then the losers, the winners, since you have never covered the losses in full because you don't get big moves. And so the whole point of trading is to trade momentum. We don't trade petty stocks. We don't trade low float stocks. I don't trade anything. It's something that you don't even know what it is. If I'm saying that we're doing Amazon, you know exactly what. I'm talking about. So everything that I'm looking to trade is something that has volume, has the capability of having a big move in the first place. And that is all based on how the stock moves and also the price point. But it's based on looking for institutional money in the chart, in the gap. That's the philosophy, the cornerstone of the philosophy behind everything that I do. I'm looking for institutional money. Microsoft was a great example of that. Ebay today, to sell off an Ebay was a great example of that. NVIDIA today is along as a call. It's a great example of institutional money. Institutional money is buying NVIDIA. Why do you think it's going up? So institutional money is big money and big positions in stocks in the market. Large professional traders, hedge funds, investment banks all take positions in stocks in the market. If you are with these big position players, it will be a lot easier for you to profit versus going against them. Learn how to trade with institutional money. They're not the enemy. They're not the enemy. And a lot of people say, oh, you know, do, do, do, do, do. No. You wanna trade with this big money, okay? And if you can do that, you're gonna be successful and you're gonna make a lot of money. We did an effort last week. We shorted this last week. We did puts, this closer gap down fell. Actually, again, I could have held this trade longer. It fell again yesterday and see what this was doing today. But momentum means right now because the faster you can make the money, the better. And again, it's big movement. If you have a big movement, whether you have a hundred shares, a thousand shares or 10,000 shares, you're gonna get the biggest bang for your buck no matter how much size you can take. The size of your account is the size of your account. Okay, you have five grand in an options account. That's it. That's what you got, okay? You gotta work with what you got. People always say, well, let's say about to have more money, have more money, no. If you were trading and you knew what you were doing, you could take a $5,000 account and turn it into a $10,000 account in a month. If you don't know what you're doing, it doesn't matter if you have 25 grand or 100 grand, you'll lose it all in a month. So it's not about how much you have. It's taking what you have and taking good strains and then moving forward and doing it. Not waiting until you have a million dollars, which most people don't and can't. But if you knew what to do in five years from now, you'd be way ahead of the game if you just start with what you have. This was another example of momentum we shorted Tesla. We did puts in Tesla that fell that was last week. So momentum traders take positions in stocks in anticipation that the stock will have an explosive move. You saw that in Tesla. Yes, I see. I know I started five minutes late, but I am watching the time so that the next person can start on time, Rob. I do see that. The stock will have an explosive move after the big money comes in. So the big money buys it or the big money sells it, okay? This enormous move in one direction is what you wanna play on, okay? And it's a very, very profitable way to make money. Again, momentum trading in shorts, for me really is the best because they happen so fast. I'm just gonna fast forward here to the end so the next presenter can begin on time. But my system is called the Golden Gap. It is a 26 point Golden Gap rating system. It will give you an edge if you want to trade it. And again, if you're not doing well, then the point is change what you're doing. My success rate is around 80%. Sometimes it's a little higher than that, like we had no losers last week, but I would say on the average 80% over the course of the year. So if this is something that you are interested in, if this is something that you wanna learn, it is a complete system. I teach the entries, the exits. I teach the rating system in the class. It will teach you how to rate pick and play bearish professional gaps. The purpose of this system is to help you evaluate which gap to trade each morning using a checklist. And since there are so many stocks each day, that gap using a system is significant to your success. And again, this is very, very unique. It seems like a lot of things, but the reality is that it really doesn't take you that long once you learn how to do it. Again, I'm calling the trades in the room. I'm giving the picks in the room. I'm sending out the options, newsletters. You can go over your rating with my rating to see if you get the same thing. Did you rate eBay today as well as I did? And that's the whole point of learning it. If you learn what to do, you're gonna do a lot better than just taking the trains, the options newsletter. There are no prerequisites. You can sign up for that without having taken the class. The class itself, you must take the class to join the live trading room because the day trades in the room happen very quick and very fast and people need to understand how to do those for trading in the one minute. But the class is called a full two-day course on how to strategically find, pick, and play stocks that are professional bearish gaps. Class is online, you can be anywhere in the world and the class is in August. The next class I do once a month is August 19th and 20th. Class tuition is $69.99, class is online. You can be anywhere in the world and take it. I'm doing a Shark Week special. I don't know if you love Shark Week, I do. I've been watching Shark Week and Discovery Channel all week. It started last weekend and I'm doing a Shark Week special, which is $1,000 off the class. It's normally $69.99. This ends tomorrow. And as a bonus, you get the trading room and the newsletter free through the end of 2023. So that's the rest of this year to get all my calls and you save $1,000 on the class. This ends tomorrow. Any questions? Let me just see if there's any other questions from anybody. The success rate is about 80%. I think I answered that question. Good presentation, thank you. Anyways, again, just, I was rushing through here the last couple of minutes, but again, going back, gaps are a very, very specific way to look at something to see how it's trading. Right now it's earnings season. Why is earnings season a good time to trade and make money because most stocks do gap during their earnings. They could gap up, they could gap down. I don't know how they're gonna gap. I'm not taking the trade before the earnings or into the earnings. So I wait until I see the gap. Then I see it in a pre-market or the post-market and then I make a determination how I'm going to play it. For example, Meta was last night. It blew out their earnings. We did not trade it today. We didn't do anything with it today. It wasn't good enough to go long. I will assess that and look at that later today, this afternoon or tomorrow, but we did not go along that stock. So you cannot go along every bullish gap up. You cannot short every gap down. That's why you gotta know the 26 points and how to do it. Someone's asked about options. I provide the newsletter comes to your email in real time. So that's the alert whoever is asking about the options. You're gonna get to trade your email the second that I send it. So if I was doing a trade right now, if I wanted to go long Meta right now, which I'm not, but it's 1.30, I would send it out right now. You do it when you get it.

On behalf of the astronomy and physics departments at Berkeley, it's my pleasure to welcome you to the second of three Hitchcock lectures to be delivered by Stephen Hawking, Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University. Professor Hawking is universally regarded as the world's foremost authority on gravitational physics, the inheritor of the legacy handed down by Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. An illustrious career in which he has elucidated surprising and beautiful relationships between gravitation, thermodynamics, and quantum physics. Professor Hawking has won many scientific awards and honors, including the Adams Prize, the Eddington Medal, the Heinemann Prize, the Maxwell Medal, the Hughes Medal, the Einstein Medal, and most recently the Wolf Prize for Physics. In 1982, he was made a commander of the British Empire. His numerous scientific achievements are all the more remarkable for having been achieved in the face of great personal adversity. Few profiles of courage surpass in heroism and valor that of our speaker. To commemorate his inspirational visit to our campus, I call upon Dr. Forbes Norris, Vice President and Clinical Director of the San Francisco ALS Research Foundation and a member of the Scientific Advisory Board of the International ALS Foundation. Dr. Norris will make a presentation to Dr. Glenn Seaboard representing the Lawrence Hall of Science. The ALS Foundation for research on this disease in San Francisco is terribly pleased to share with you the great honor of the presence in the Bay Area of Stephen Hawking. And in commemoration of his visit, we would like to present to the university for the Lawrence Hall of Science a bust of Professor Hawking by the noted Irish sculptorist Marjorie Fitzgibbon. Thank you very much. I'm very proud to accept on behalf of the Lawrence Hall of Science this bust of Sir Stephen Hawking on this heartwarming occasion. I also want to express my gratitude to Dr. Norris and the ALS Research Foundation for their generosity in making this bust available. I think it's very appropriate that this go to the Lawrence Hall of Science. Sir Stephen Hawking symbolizes the best in our attempts to effect the public understanding of science to help us understand our place in the universe and the nature of things. And the Lawrence Hall of Science is dedicated to just these ideas, the public understanding of science and of its place in today's world. I invite you all, and not all at the same time, to come up to the Lawrence Hall of Science and see this bust of Professor Stephen Hawking on display. Thank you very much. Well, without further ado, I now call on Professor Stephen Hawking to give us his Hitchcock lecture. The title of his talk has been changed from the one that was originally announced. The new title is Baby Universes, Children of Black Holes. Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming once more Professor Stephen Hawking. Can you hear me? In this lecture, I want to talk about Black Holes and their offspring, Baby Universes. Calling into a black hole has become one of the horrors of science fiction. In fact, black holes can now be said to be really matters of science fact rather than science fiction. As I shall describe, there are good reasons for predicting that black holes should exist. On the observational evidence points strongly to the presence of a number of black holes in our own galaxy and more in other galaxies. Of course, where the science fiction writers really go to town is on what happens if you do fall in a black hole. The common suggestion is that if the black hole is rotating, you can fall through a little hole in space time and out into another region of the universe. This obviously raises great possibilities for space travel. Indeed, we need something like this. If travel to other stars, let alone other galaxies, there's to be a practical proposition in the future. Otherwise, the fact that nothing can travel faster than light means that the round trip to the nearest star would take at least eight years. So much for a weekend break on Alpha Centauri. On the other hand, if one could pass through a black hole, one might reemerge anywhere in the universe. Quite how you choose your destination is not clear. You might set out for a holiday in Virgo and end up in the crab nebula. I am sorry to disappoint prospective galactic tourists, but this scenario doesn't work.  However, there is a sense in which the particles that make up your body do carry on into another universe. I don't know if it would be much consolation to someone being made into spaghetti in a black hole to know that his particles might survive. Pied the slightly flippant tone I have adopted, this talk will be based on hard science. Most of what I shall say is now agreed by other scientists working in this field, though this acceptance has come only fairly recently. The last part of the lecture, however, is based on very recent work on which there is, as yet, no general consensus. But this work is arousing great interest and excitement.  It was a stroke of genius. The name ensured that black holes entered the mythology of science fiction. It also stimulated scientific research by providing a definite name for something that previously had not had a satisfactory title. The importance in science of a good name should not be underestimated. The first person, as far as I know, the distressed black holes was the Cambridge man called John Mitchell, who wrote a paper about them in 1783. His idea was this.  As it goes up, it will be slowed down by the effect of gravity. Eventually, it will stop going up and will fall back to earth. However, if it had more than a certain critical speed, it would never stop and fall back but would continue to move away. This critical speed is called the escape velocity. It is about seven miles a second for the earth and about 100 miles a second for the sun. Both of these velocities are higher than the speed of a real cannon ball but they are much smaller than the velocity of light, which is 186,000 miles a second. This means that gravity doesn't have much effect on light. And light can escape without difficulty from the earth or the sun. However, Mitchell reasoned that it would be possible to have a star that was sufficiently massive and sufficiently small in size that its escape velocity would be greater than the velocity of light. We would not be able to see such a star because light from its surface would not reach us but would be dragged back by its gravitational field. However, we might be able to detect the presence of the star by the effect that its gravitational field would have on nearby matter. It is not really consistent to treat light like cannon balls because according to an experiment carried out in 1897, light always travels at the same constant velocity. So how then can gravity slow down light? A fully consistent theory of how gravity affects light came in 1915 when Einstein formulated the general theory of relativity. Even so, the implications of this theory for old stars, another massive bodies were not generally realized until the 1960s. According to general relativity, space and time together can be regarded as forming a four-dimensional space called spacetime. The space is not flat, but it is distorted or curved by the matter and energy in it. Objects try to move on straight lines through spacetime but because it is curved, they move on paths called geodesics which are the nearest thing to a straight line in the curved space. Thus, the earth tries to move on a straight line but because spacetime is bent by the mass of the sun it follows the spiral path going in a circle around the sun while advancing in time. Similarly, light tries to move on a straight line but because spacetime is curved, it appears to follow a path that is bent. We can actually observe this bending of light during an eclipse. The moon blocks out the sun and allows us to observe stars that are in almost the same direction as the sun. We find that the stars appear to be in slightly different positions because the light from them is bent by the curved spacetime near the sun. In the case of light passing near the sun, the bending is very small. However, if the sun were to shrink until it was only a few miles across, the bending would be so great that light leaving the sun would not get away but would be dragged back by the gravitational field. According to the theory of relativity, nothing can travel faster than light. So there would be a region from which it would be impossible for anything to escape. This region is called a black hole. Its boundary is called the event horizon. It is formed by the light that just fails to get away from the black hole but stays hovering on the edge. It might sound ridiculous to suggest that the sun could shrink. Sorry about that. It might sound ridiculous to suggest that the sun could shrink to being only a few miles across. Surely matter cannot be compressed so far. The answer is it can. The sun is the size it is because it is so hot. It is burning hydrogen into helium like a controlled H-bomb. The heat released in this process generates a pressure that enables the sun to resist the attraction of its own gravity which is trying to make it smaller. Eventually, however, the sun will run out of nuclear fuel. This will not happen for about another five billion years so there's no great rush to book your flight to another star. However, more massive stars will bring up their fuel much more rapidly. When they finish their fuel, they will start to lose heat under contract. If they are less than about twice the mass of the sun, they will eventually stop contracting and will settle down to a stable state. This state can be what is called a white dwarf. These have radii of a few thousand miles and densities of hundreds of tons per cubic inch. Earth can be a neutron star. These have a radius of about 10 miles and densities of millions of tons per cubic inch. We observe large numbers of white dwarfs in our immediate neighborhood in the galaxy. Neutron stars, however, were not observed until 1967 when Jocelyn Bell and Tony Ish at Cambridge discovered objects called pulsars which were emitting regular pulses of radio waves. At first, they wondered whether they had made contact with an alien civilization. Indeed, I remember that the seminar room in which they announced their discovery was decorated with figures of little green men. In the end, however, they and everyone else came to the less romantic conclusion that they were rotating neutron stars. This was bad news for riders of space westerns, but good news for the small number of us who believed in black holes at that time. If stars could shrink as small as 10 or 20 miles across to become neutron stars, one might expect that other stars could shrink even further to become black holes. Star with a mass more than about twice that of the sun cannot settle down as a white dwarf or neutron star. In some cases, the star may explode and grow of enough matter to bring its mass below the limit. But this won't happen in all the cases. Some stars will shrink so small that their gravitational fields will bend light so much that it comes back towards the star. No further light or anything else will be able to escape. The stars will have become black holes. We now have fairly good observational evidence for a number of black holes. One of the best cases is Cygnus X1. This is a system consisting of a normal star orbiting around an unseen companion. Matter seems to be being blown off the normal star and falling on the companion. As it falls towards the companion, it develops a spiral motion, like water running out of a bath. It will get very hot and will give off the x-rays that are observed. The unseen companion must be very small, a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole. However, one can show that the mass of the companion must be at least six times that of the sun.  I once met Kip Thorne of the California Institute of Technology that Cygnus X1 does not contain a black hole. This was not because I didn't believe that there really was a black hole in Cygnus X1. Rather, it was an insurance policy. I had done a lot of work on black holes and it all would have been wasted if it had turned out that black holes didn't exist. But then, at least, I would have had the consolation of winning my bet. However, I now consider the evidence for black holes so compelling that I'm going to concede a bet. I will give Kip Thorne a subscription to Penthouse. Anything that falls into a black hole comes into a region of spacetime in which light is bent so much that it cannot get out. Since nothing can travel faster than light, this means that nothing else can get out either.  You won't be able to change your mind if you don't like what you find inside. The laws of physics are time symmetric. If there are objects called black holes which things can fall into but not get out, there ought to be other objects that things can come out of but not fall into. One could call these white holes.  This would be the ideal method of long-distance spaced ravel mentioned earlier. All you would need would be to find a nearby black hole. At first, this form of spaced ravel seemed possible. There are solutions to Weinstein's general theory of relativity in which it is possible to fall into a black hole and come out of a white hole. However, later work showed that these solutions were all very unstable.  The spaceship would be torn apart by infinitely strong forces. Anyone care to buy a ticket for the Titanic? After that, it seemed hopeless. Black holes might be useful for getting rid of garbage or even some of one's friends. But they were a country from which no traveler returns. However, everything I have been saying so far has been based on calculations using Weinstein's general theory of relativity. This theory is an excellent agreement with all the observations we have made. But we know it cannot be quite right because it doesn't incorporate the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics. The uncertainty principle says that particles cannot have both a well-defined position and a well-defined velocity. The more precisely you measure the position of a particle, the less precisely you can measure its velocity and vice versa. In 1973, I started investigating what difference the uncertainty principle would make to black holes. To my great surprise and that of everyone else, I found that it meant that black holes are not completely black. They would be sending out radiation and particles at a steady rate. My results were received with general disbelief when I announced them at a conference near Oxford. The chairman of the session said they were nonsense and wrote a paper saying so. However, when other people repeated my calculations, they found the same effect. Please wait while I load the rest of my lecture.  How can anything get out through the event horizon of a black hole? The answer is the uncertainty principle allows particles to travel faster than light for a small distance. This enables particles and radiation to get out through the event horizon and escape from the black hole. Thus, it is possible for things to get out of a black hole. However, what comes out of a black hole will be different from what fell in. Only the energy will be the same. As the black hole gives off particles and radiation, it will lose mass.  Eventually, it will get down to zero mass and will disappear completely. What will happen then to the objects, including possible spaceships, that fell into the black hole? According to some recent work of mine, the answer is that they go off into a little baby universe of their own. A small, self-contained universe branches off from our region of the universe. This baby universe may join on again to our region of spacetime. If it does, it would appear to us to be another black hole, which formed and then evaporated.  This sounds just what is required to allow space travel through black holes. You just steer your spaceship into a suitable black hole. It better be a pretty big one, or the gravitational forces will tear you into spaghetti before you get inside. You would then hope to reappear out of some other hole, though you wouldn't be able to choose where. However, there's a snag in this intergalactic transportation scheme. The baby universes that take the particles that fell into the hole occur in what is called imaginary time. Imaginary time may sound like science fiction, but it is a well-defined mathematical concept that seems essential in order to formulate quantum mechanics and the uncertainty principle properly. However, it is not our subjective sense of time in which we feel ourselves as getting older with more gray hairs. Rather, it can be thought of as the direction of time that is at right angles to what we call real time. Thank you.  He would be touring a park by the difference between the gravitational force on his head and his feet. Even the particles that made up his body would not survive. Their histories, in real time, would come to an end at a singularity. However, the histories of the particles in imaginary time would continue. They would pass into the baby universe and would reemerge as the particles emitted by another black hole. Thus, in a sense, the astronaut would be transported to another region of the universe. However, the particles that emerged would not look much like the astronaut. Might it be much consolation to him as he ran into the singularity in real time to know that his particles will survive in imaginary time? The motto for anyone who falls into a black hole must be think imaginary, what determines where the particles reemerge. The number of particles in the baby universe will be equal to the number of particles that fell into the black hole plus the number of particles that the black hole emits during its evaporation. This means that the particles that fall into one black hole will come out of another hole of about the same mass. Thus, one might try to select where the particles would come out by creating a black hole of the same mass as that which the particles went down. However, the black hole would be equally likely to give off any other set of particles with the same total energy. Even if the black hole did emit the right kinds of particles, one could not tell if they were actually the same particles that went down the other hole. Particles do not carry identity cards. All particles of a given kind look alike. What all this means is that going through a black hole is unlikely to prove a popular and reliable method of space travel. First of all, you would have to get there by traveling in imaginary time and not care that your history in real time came to a sticky end. Second, you couldn't really choose your destination. It would be a bit like traveling on some airlines I could name, but won't, because I would be sued. Although baby universes may not be much used for space travel, they have important implications for our attempt to find a complete unified theory that will describe everything in the universe. Our present theories contain a number of quantities like the size of the electric charge on a particle. The values of these quantities cannot be predicted by our theories. Instead, they have to be chosen to agree with observations. However, most scientists believe that there is some underlying unified theory that will predict the values of all these quantities. May well be such an underlying theory. Many people think it is the theory of super strings. This does not contain any numbers whose values can be adjusted. One would therefore expect that this unified theory should be able to predict all the values of quantities like the electric charge on a particle that are left undetermined by our present theories. Even though we have not yet been able to predict any of these quantities from super string theory, many people believe that we will be able to do so eventually. However, if this picture of baby universes is correct, our ability to predict these quantities will be reduced. This is because we cannot observe how many baby universes exist out there waiting to join on to our region of the universe. There can be baby universes that contain only a few particles. These baby universes are so small that one would not notice them joining on or branching off. However, by joining on, they will alter the apparent values of quantities like the electric charge on a particle. Thus, we will not be able to predict what the apparent values of these quantities will be because we don't know how many baby universes are waiting out there. There could be a population explosion of baby universes. However, unlike the human case, there seem to be no limiting factors such as food supply or standing room. Baby universes exist in the realm of their own. It is a bit like casking. How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? For most quantities, maybe universes seem to introduce a definite, although fairly small, amount of uncertainty in the predicted values. However, they may provide an explanation of the observed value of one very important quantity, the so-called cosmological constant. This is a quantity that would give the universe an inbuilt tendency to expand or contract. On general grounds, one might expect it to be very large. Yet we can observe how the expansion of the universe is varying with time and determine that the cosmological constant is very small. Up to now, there has been no good explanation for why the observed value should be so small. However, having baby universes branching off and joining on will affect the apparent value of the cosmological constant. Because we don't know how many baby universes there are, there will be different possible values for the apparent cosmological constant. However, a nearly zero value will be by far the most probable. This is fortunate because it is only if the value of the cosmological constant is very small that the universe would be suitable for beings like us. To sum up, it seems that particles can fall into black holes which then evaporate and disappear from our region of the universe. The particles go off into baby universes which branch off from our universe. These baby universes can then join back on somewhere else. They may not be much good for space travel, but their presence means that we will be able to predict less than we expected even if we do find a complete unified theory. On the other hand, we now may be able to provide explanations for the measured values of some quantities like the cosmological constant. In the last year, this has become a very active and exciting area of research. I'm wishing to get on with it. Thank you. Well, sir, Hawking will be willing to take some questions. We do have some time. If you have a question, please speak loudly so that we can hear you. The question is, how can radiation escape from a black hole if light cannot? To get out of a black hole, you have to travel faster than light. But the uncertainty principle allows particles to travel faster than light for a short distance. I won't repeat the question. No. Does it need a creator? Maybe it just exists. Does it need a creator? Maybe it just exists. That's true. That's just one question. I'm afraid we are running out of time. So perhaps those of you who have urgent questions can say them to the next talk before next place on Thursday. Ben Gellibach at the same time. Thank you.
