Hey, it's Clay at ClayTrader.com,
and in this video,
I want to show you a great
trading platform to help you
get started trading stocks,
and not even necessarily get started.
Maybe you already trade stocks.
You're just looking for a more
budget friendly way to go about it.
So that's going to be
the focus of this video,
now right up front to set context,
this platform will cost you $2 per month.
If you hear $2 per month
and you're thinking, Oh,
that's just too much.
That puts too much stress
and strain on my finances
then with all due respect,
and I'm not trying to be mean,
go clean up your personal finances first
and then come back to trading.
But if you're hearing
about somebody that hears
$2 per month and you think, okay, well,
I mean spending $2 per
month in order to get access
to tools and such that can make me
way more than $2 per month,
that would be a great return
on your, my, you know,
your investment then perfect,
you have the right mindset.
And then also it's
gonna be for people that
use technical charts and level
twos within their trading.
So whether you're a day
trader or a swing trader,
this is a platform that would be for you.
So that's the context.
Now overall, what really
spurred all of this on was,
let me take a step back.
Who is the actual platform?
Maybe you already looked
ahead on the screen
and you can see that
right up here is Webull.
And maybe you're already starting to
read through the email as I
talk, but this is all recent,
but sent out an email and
they are now decreasing.
So decreasing the pricing,
never gonna complain about that.
but going from 24.99 to a
$1.99 per month, I mean,
even at $25, when you
stop and think about it,
the financial markets do billions
upon billions of dollars.
So I mean, even $25 per month
should be a drop in the bucket,
but at definitely at $2, right?
There is no excuses there.
So that's the context,
new pricing structure,
a new platform.
They just read it a whole bunch of stuff.
So it's kind of a, almost
a new unveiling of things.
And that's what I want to show you
and let you decide whether or not
you think it would fit into your context
of what you're trying to do as a trader.
And everything that you'll see,
great technical charts, fantastic
level twos, like I said,
you'll get for $2 per
month, but also $0 fees,
$0 commissions, and they also
offer options trading $0.
So that'll be the overarching
context here is everything
you'll get for $2 a month.
And then on top of that,
you know, the cherry on top,
$0 in fees and commissions,
and then really quickly, I
am an affiliate of Webull.
So if you sign up using the
link, that's part of this video,
then you know, you'll get
a stock or a couple stocks,
whatever their promotion is that you know,
they're running at the time
you're watching this video,
but I'll also get something too,
and quickly cause I can see, Oh, Clay.
So you're only recommending Webull
because they're an affiliate.
Nope, absolutely not.
Robinhood also offers
an affiliate program.
And if you're familiar
with the channel, you know,
I've never recommended Robinhood.
And I guess this was kind of good timing,
but hot off the press right here.
And this is not, you know,
this is from right here,
the Wall Street Journal.
So a legitimate source, Robinhood
faces SEC investigation.
Now to be fair, I don't know
what will come out of it,
but I mean, when you're
facing SEC investigations
you know, not necessarily the
place that you want to be.
So that's just one of the
reasons why I don't recommend
Robinhood and I never have.
So the point here being I'm
recommending them because
for $2 a month,
I think they give fantastic
a beautiful platform,
great looking charts, the ability to have
real time level twos,
but I'll let you decide.
So let's go to my desktop
and I'll show you how it all works.
I should also note that this assumes
that you fund your account
with a hundred dollars.
Now, when I say a hundred
dollars, that's not the cost,
that's just the funding requirement.
And then you'll get access
to the real time data,
the charts, everything you see here,
but you can use that $100 to trade with.
So I just want to
reemphasize that you do need
to deposit the hundred dollars,
but that $100 is not a cost.
It's just, you need to
put it in the account,
but then you can go and
use that a hundred dollars
to start to buy stocks
and stuff like that.
So just keep that in mind
too, also going forward,
but here is the platform
and here is just one of
their default settings.
And I wanna make this very clear.
The idea of this video is not, hey,
this is what you have to use.
This is how you have to
set up your platform.
No, I just want you to see it.
I want you to visualize it
so that you can get an idea
of whether or not you like
what you see, if you don't,
that's fine.
That's at least you saved
yourself having to sign up
for the entire platform and get, you know,
all that, fund the
account and then say oh,
I don't really like this.
The goal here is not tell you
what you need to be using,
but just show you some of the,
the areas that I like about it.
And that I think, you know,
why it's a very budget friendly, you know,
opportunity for those people
that are just getting started
in day trading and, you know,
getting their feet wet
within the stock market.
But let's just say, for example,
that you don't want this.
You, you don't exactly like this setup.
So what I really like,
and what's fantastic is
if you come over here
and when I say over here,
I'm going to move to that area
right there on the screen.
But you go over there and
you click on customize
and then you can do, now they
have other platforms for you
or layouts that will get you started.
Or you can just go right
over here to blank layout.
And I mean, you can quite literally start
right from the get go.
And like I said,
I'm not going to show you
how to set up a layout.
My point here is that I just
want to show you how quick
and easy it can be.
So right now you have
a totally blank slate.
And also remember,
all you see is a little section
of recording on my screen,
but you can make this as vast as you want.
So if you have multiple monitors,
then you can open up window upon window
and move these things all around.
So things may look a little
scrunched up here, but again,
that's just because from
the logistics standpoint
where I'm recording, you know,
I only have so much real estate.
But like I said, the
way to get this set up
and what I love, and
one of the newest things
is you go over there and you click there
and it just gives you
pictures of everything
that you can put in.
So you put this here and you
can see up here at the top,
you have quote, trade,
stocks, general, market,
and each of those, you have
a whole bunch of pictures.
And like I said, I'm just
totally making this up,
but let's start with the
things that to me matter.
And the thing of everything
that matters is this right here,
the technical chart,
I'm a technical trader.
I love technical charts.
I need to have good charts.
And as far as I'm concerned,
Webull offers some very,
very respectable charts.
Again, under the context of $2 per month.
I do not use Webull charts,
I use E-signal and you are welcome
to use E-signal if you want.
But just as a, you know,
E-signal charts cost over,
I think right around $1,200 per year.
So per year at $1,200 for
the charts that I use.
But, and the main reason I do use them
is more for the business purposes,
my teaching side of the business,
it just makes teaching all
that a little bit easier.
But like I said, if you're
just getting started,
if you don't have $1,200
per year to spend on charts,
Hey, you're not alone.
These are very, very respectable.
They're a very, very budget friendly way
to approach the market.
But like I said, so here are the charts.
Like I said, I think they're fantastic.
They look great.
And there's all sorts of various,
I mean, you can do all
sorts of drawings on them.
You have, you know,
so draw a trend line, you know,
you can do all sorts of stuff.
And if you want, you can change the color
of that trend line.
So you can change it right there.
You can change the thickness of it.
You can change, you know,
the, you can make it an arrow,
you can make it dotted.
So right there all sorts of customization,
as far as the technical
chart is concerned,
but then it goes, well, what time periods?
And down here,
you can see all sorts of
the various time periods
that they have.
So multiple timeframe
analysis, very important.
And you know, so your
five minute and all these,
and then something else
are the indicators.
And for me, a indicator that
I believe you should use.
And I think because there is so much of
a self fulfilling prophecy with it is,
ah, let's see here,
The VWAP right there.
So VWAP, you get that added in
and I have a whole video
on what the VWAP is,
but that's one of those
indicators where I think
you should definitely have it.
You should definitely use it.
And you know, they have moving averages.
They have all the other
different types of indicators.
Again, I'm not going to go through each,
every section or else it's
going to be like an hour
or two hour long video.
My point here is that there's
a lot of customization.
There's a lot of choices
and stuff that when you,
when you get it and you
start to just click around,
it's very intuitive.
You'll have all sorts
of different choices,
but just from a good old
foundational backbone of trading,
backbone of a decision making process.
Cause that's what we as traders do, right?
We need to make decisions.
We needed to make good decisions,
not guaranteed decisions, but
high probability decisions.
And a big part of that is the chart,
is technical analysis and
they have great charts.
And like I said, you can have
as many of these as you want.
So I mean, you can customize it.
And as you see here, change in all sorts
of different time periods on things.
And again, this is just a
very small part of my screen,
but if I wanted to, I could
click right here and you know,
it will remove it,
And then there's the chart settings there,
but I can move this all over the place.
I can move it to any monitor that I want.
So a whole lot of customization there.
So I guess we'll just put
that up here and I'm, again,
this is not how you
have to set up to trade.
But another thing for those of
you that want to do options.
So there is an options chain.
If you're just curious how
that looks, then again,
we could be here for a long time,
but there's all sorts of
different customizations.
I mean, you can have all the
different available items
and all that.
So things all over the place,
and let's remove that out of the way.
We won't leave that one up.
But now level twos, right?
I think that's probably why a
lot of you are watching this.
You're thinking, I do want level twos.
I do need level twos, but I'm an,
I don't want to be paying lots
of money every single month
for these level twos.
But again, two dollars.
So for this, you come down
here to let's see stocks,
where did level twos go?
Where did level twos go?
Where, Oh, where?
I was just looking at them.
So much stuff.
Well, there we go.
We have a learning lesson here.
It was sitting in front
of me the entire time,
but order book, order
book is what they call it.
So if you do sign up for
Webull, just realize that they,
I mean, they call them level
two as you're going to see here.
But if you do it this way,
that's going to be order book.
So you click right there and
there is the actual level two
you're going to have to
look very, very closely,
but right up there, it does say level two.
So I they're there.
They were sitting there the entire time,
in fact, right down there,
call them level two.
So I'm not quite sure why
they go with order book.
Now I've heard that before.
And maybe that is technically speaking,
you know, the, the cool lingo to say it,
but maybe I'm just not that cool.
But regardless, so there
are the level twos.
That's what it looks like.
Now I would say, and again,
I'm not saying you have to do this,
but what I would recommend
for sure is to, whoops,
so you can see here a couple of charts.
Let me just get rid of that one.
But what I would definitely recommend is
having time and sales too.
So not just level twos,
but you want to see the
orders or quote unquote,
the tape and lingo.
And the tape is what is
known as time and sales.
So time and sales tape,
they're the same exact thing.
Maybe you've heard people say,
you got to get good at reading the tape.
So the tape is right here.
So time and sales,
that's also something that you would want.
And again, you can get this
set up, however you want.
So, I mean, for me personally,
the way I have mine set up
on, you know, my main broker,
I always have it right
next to the level twos.
Some people might have them
down below, but I just like,
so if we get, actually,
let's just remove that out
of there so that we can,
so we can move this over here
and then just be focused right on this.
So there that is, you know
how you could set it up as a,
as a place on your screen.
Of course you could put
whatever you want over here.
You could then have a
chart, what I do for mine.
And, you know, I always have the,
if you've ever watched any
of my live trade videos,
then down here, I have
the order entry area.
So that's another thing which
I really do like about the
platform, but right there,
if you're curious, okay,
what do the level twos look like?
I mean, pretty much just
like any other level twos.
I'm not, I'll be fully honest,
I'm not quite sure what that's telling you
or what that's supposed
to be representing.
Maybe that's the greatest
thing ever, I don't know.
That's something that
my platform, I guess,
I don't know if they don't
have it, but I don't use it.
It's looking like, it's just
telling you the order flows.
I'm curious though.
I wonder if, can you get that to go away.
Order book one, I think remove widget,
that would just be for everything.
So again, I'm not quite sure what that is.
And again, that could very
well be super helpful.
So I'm not saying that in a
well that's stupid type of way.
I'm just saying it in a very honest,
I'm not quite sure what
necessarily that is
and how you would use it.
It's looking like it just
telling you the orders that are
coming in as far as buy and
sells within the bid and ask.
But anyways, so that's
how the level twos work.
And again, you can customize
this as much as you want.
So I mean, you can tell
it how many, you know,
what sort of depth you want
to see, everything like that.
So data select, like I said,
all sorts of different things.
I'm not here to show you everything,
but that's just kind of one of the,
it's almost like a kid in a candy store.
You can start clicking around
and setting things up looking.
But the other thing that I do
definitely want to point out
is what is important
in always stock entry.
Especially if you are a day trader,
you need to be able to operate quickly.
You need to be able to get
your orders into the market.
You need to be able to
type in your orders,
whatever they may be.
And that is where I really
like their order entry box.
It's very straightforward.
It's very streamlined.
So, I mean, if you want
to buy or sell, boom,
like just if you want to buy boom,
if you want to sell, I mean,
look how quick that is literally
just a click your mouse,
as far as the order type, you know,
you're just clicking the limit
or if you want those other ones,
but it's just everything, click, quantity.
What I like quite a bit.
And what's nice is you can
always change this to percentage
or the quantity.
But as far as that, I
want to quickly show this,
and this is the setting.
So you'll have frequently, you know,
quantities down here that you can change
to whatever you want.
And that's important because right here,
let's just say, well, I
don't want, I don't want 10.
You click right there and
you see these other entries,
but you can change these
to whatever you want.
So if you want this to be 10, 25, 50,
and then I don't know, 200,
for example, you can do that.
You just, again, whoops,
not there you come over
here to the trade settings.
And let's just say, you
want one of them to say,
let's just say, cause you're,
you're a roll high roller.
Let's just go a thousand.
So right there.
And then you can go
back and now if you want
to do a thousand right there,
boom, I want a thousand.
And that fast you get the order in,
you can get the price or, you
know, if you're, of course,
if you're doing a market,
you would click to that
and it doesn't care.
It's not going to ask you for the price,
cause you're not doing a limit.
And then, you know, the
rest is self explanatory,
but I just like how fast you can operate.
If you see something that's moving.
If you see something that's
going in your favor, again.
Now, if you're a swing trader,
if you're an investor,
then yes you're not,
the order entry box,
probably not that important.
But if you are a day trader,
then you definitely do
need to, like I said,
be able to operate quick on your feet.
And the trade entry box
definitely allows for that.
So another one of those things about
from a platform perspective, you know,
just those little things
that through experience
make a very big difference.
And you have all sorts
of different things,
positions, orders.
And now let's say you're
somebody that cares about,
you know, the fundamentals.
So maybe you care about news,
so you can bring up new
statements right there.
And again, you can make
this as much as you want.
So you can have, you know, streaming news.
And as somebody that,
I don't use a whole lot
of fundamental analysis,
but here you can see some fan,
well, let's actually bring
up a stock here because,
so Boeing, so right here, I mean,
you have the income statement,
you have the balance
sheet, you have cashflow.
And you know, you can see cashflow here.
On Boeing, I shouldn't laugh but Boeing,
that would make sense, right?
If you're not familiar,
at least at the time of this recording,
Boeing has been undergoing
some hardships and you can see
that very quickly with their cashflow.
Cashflow has been dropping a whole lot,
but point here being,
if you are somebody that's interested
in fundamental analysis and you want
a quick look at things, I mean,
they have all sorts of things.
You can just click around
and you can get all sorts of.
And that's just, you know,
the financial statements,
there's corporate actions.
There's, you know,
what other, so analysts right here.
Again we'll change that to Boeing here.
Which is pretty cool, actually.
So percentages of hold, underperform,
all that sort of stuff.
So, I mean, you have all that
right at your fingertips and you know,
whether or not you use it,
institutional holding, short
interest, and then, you know,
you just through go through all these
and they have all these things that again,
you click on them, you can
add them to your layout
and then wherever you want
to put them on your screen,
you can do all of that.
And then as far as, you
know, scanners and stuff,
you have top gainers and losers.
That's one of them that I definitely use.
I think you should use it.
You have most active, again.
You want, you want to
know what's most active.
You have, you know,
the hot ETFs out there.
You have all sorts of
different scanners and such.
Now you can set up your own scanners also.
I'm not going to go down that rabbit hole
or else we'll really be here a long time.
But the point here being,
you have access to all
this at your fingertips
for just $2 per month.
So again, from a budget
friendly perspective,
from somebody that, you know,
when I was new and getting started, right,
you don't have all sorts
of money to go out there
and get the greatest,
latest, expensive scanners.
And I'm not saying anything
bad about those companies.
I'm not here to bad mouth anyone.
I'm just saying that from a
budget friendly perspective,
this is, it offers you so
much and quality tools,
especially going back
to the technical chart.
I mean, these are nice charts.
They are very respectable.
They're all real time.
So as the price fluctuates,
this thing is going to fluctuate.
So let's pull up a Boeing here,
and let's actually, so, you know,
Boeing right here, just, you can see it.
This is the one minute
timeframe zoom into it.
And there's all sorts of benefits.
But at the end of the day, for me,
there's two things as a
day trader that you need to
care about, the technical
charts and level twos.
You need to be able to use
both of those, but of course,
in order to use them, you
need to have them, right.
And you want to have
something that is going to be
pleasing to your eye.
Just because I'm not saying
that you have the charts,
or you have the level twos that you pay
a bunch of money for
it, that doesn't matter.
At the end of the day
it's what's going on between
your two ears, right?
What's your knowledge,
what's your strategy?
Do you understand what you're doing?
But part of that is going to be,
you want to find things that are
visually pleasing to your eye.
And these are visually pleasing to my eye,
especially when it's $2 a month,
but who knows if you don't
like it, that's fine.
My goal here is just to
show you and give you
a choice out there and
make you aware of this
that might help you out in your trading,
might help you kind of jumpstart into
overcoming that question of,
you know, I want to day trade stocks
or I want a day trader swing
trade options, but I don't,
I don't know, we're we're
we're should I start?
Where should I go?
What's a budget friendly
way to go about it.
And Webull would be my answer to that.
Now, down below the video,
I'll put a link to my affiliate link.
Again, I do get something
for full transparency sake,
but right now they're doing,
you'll get a free stock
if you use that link and
then, you know, deposit again,
fund your account with
the a hundred dollars,
which will open up access to everything.
But one final time, just to reiterate,
the a hundred dollars you
can use to trade with.
So it's not like that's
a cost towards anything,
but you can use that to trade.
But if you do that and use the link,
then you'll get a free stock
or whatever the current
promotion is at that point in time.
But I do get something too,
so do keep that in mind,
but overall, I would recommend
you at least look into them.
And hopefully this video
helped kind of show you
behind the scenes,
show you what is possible from
the customization standpoint.
In all actuality,
I probably just scratched
the surface of just how
customizable you can get it.
But like I said, putting
aside all the customizations
and all the different
various tools and stuff,
at the core, level twos
and the technical chart,
those are the things that
need to be visually pleasing
to your eye.
And I think, like I said, for the price,
these are a great budget
friendly way to get started.
So if you have any questions
or anything, let me know,
but Webull, I would say give them a look.
And like I said, if you want a free stock,
fund it with a hundred dollars,
click the link down below.
And like I said, let me know
if you have any questions.
Hopefully this helped out.
First off, thanks so much for
watching the entire video.
Real quick, before you go,
I want to invite you to a live webinar,
web class, training,
workshop, online event,
whatever you want to call it,
but it will be me, live, revealing to you
what I've discovered that has
allowed me to transform myself
from being an employee
to being my own boss,
including how I had only one losing day
out of 73 days in total.
I'm going to cover three
keys that have helped me
unlock profitable consistency
within the markets.
The first key is super weird,
but in a productive type of way.
The second key is super awesome
because it quite literally
is wired into our DNA as humans,
making it very easy to use,
but in a cruel way, this becomes
a pitfall for many traders.
I'll explain it all though,
including how to avoid the
pitfall that it creates for some.
And yeah, the third key,
when you hear it sounds way to
get way too good to be true,
but it's not, and I'll
show you how it all works.
Then at the end, I open it up
for question and answer session that is
again, totally live.
Even if you can't make the live session,
please still sign up
as it will be recorded.
And you can go back and watch the replay
that I will send you.
Click the image on the screen,
or click the link down
in the description box
so you can get the date and
time and claim your spot,
which I should note is limited
due to the fact that this
truly is a live event.
If you have any questions, let me know.
If not, I'll be seeing you soon.
