May PnL: $30,547.87
My best trading execution I’ve ever had.
I did all of this by swinging/selling options while being a full-time commodities trader.
“I pay myself as the market makes money available to me”.
Withdrew 1/2 profits for summer vacations.
Had the worst day of my trading career today. I was overly bearish. I went to bed too late. I overtraded. I’m holding myself accountable here and I will bounce back from this and learn. Trading is not easy and I’m here to be transparent about it.

My Grandma passed away last night.
She’s been battling a rare form of Cancer since 2017. She wasn’t supposed to make it past 6 months. She lived an additional 6 years.
Life is short. Tell you’re loved ones that you love them. Don’t take anything for granted.
I’m going to post a thread tomorrow 🧵
“How to be consistently profitable?” 📈
I’ve had 18 Green Day’s in a row ✅
This thread will discuss my strategies on how I’ve stayed green regularly 💪🏻
If you’re interested let me know 🥊
Learned this trick from my Dad.
If there’s a price target upgrade, that means firms more than likely want to offload and sell that stock.
If there’s a price target downgrade, that means firms more than likely want to accumulate more shares.
$AMD perfect example…
Never forget what you started with and never forget where you came from.
When I first started trading all I had was my phone, an old iPad, & an old MacBook.
Now I have an awesome setup with my greatest achievements.
Hard work, passion, and ambition takes you places.
$AAPL
#RockyRecap
🍎🐻
My Dad taught me this.
When stocks get price target upgrades, they want to offload the stock.
When stocks get price target downgrades, they want to buy the stock.
I entered $AAPL puts yesterday, the day of the $GS upgrade. I'm up 50% so far.
April was my 2nd biggest month ever 📈
+$34,719.47 💰
My last red day was April 4th
I stuck to what works and remained disciplined 🥊📰
Can’t wait for May!
Unpopular opinion: Trading at least 1DTE or next week contracts on $SPY is way less stressful than trading 0DTE’s.
You can still get a nice % gain, but you’re not freaking out over every tick.
October of 2020 was when my trading journey started. I was down to my last $583 as a Senior in College. I was broke. I turned that $583 to $20k in 4 months going into 2021. I restarted a WeBull account with $5k. I wanted to change my life through options trading.
Perspective is everything. I came up in November, 2020 with $583 in my trading account. I still remember going to college, trading, and doing DoorDash for 8 hours. Now I’m able to make that $583 times 10 in a day. Why not work your ass off? If I can do this so can you.
I made $3,000 today in the Stock Market.
It’s crazy 2 years ago when I graduated college, $3,000 is the amount employers were offering me for a month of work.
I used that as motivation.
The market can change your life.
It changed mine. Bet on yourself.
Since the news is out, I’m doxxed! I guess I can’t be Rocky forever!
My name is Vincent. I’ve been day-trading for ~2 years full-time.
I studied Finance/Economics. I’m 23.
I like to travel and go to the gym!
🧵The How to be Consistently Profitable Thread 🧵
These are the tips and tricks that I use every day that have increased my chances of having a green day consistently ✅
*What works me might not work for you*
Lets get to it 🥊
If you’re not reviewing your trades…
If you’re not back-testing your strategies…
If you’re not sticking to your rules…
Then how bad do you really want it? If you put in the work the odds will increase in your favor.
I’m going to do a short thread today on how to calculate the implied move on any stock that has earnings. This way you can predict what the % and $ move should be on that stock before the earnings are dropped. (I talked to my Dad who worked on Wall St.) Anyone interested? 📈📉
+$24,159.23 on the month for me.
My 4th best month of all time. I will take it, but I need to work on limiting my red days.
16/23 Green Day’s = 69.5%.
I want 80%+ in September and better risk management.
It’s surreal getting to do this everyday.
I press buttons for a living. I buy and sell stuff. I’m my own boss. I have no ceiling. I’ve made so many friends on here.
I’m so glad I found my passion. The stock market is life changing.
I’ve seen this story too many times…
Powell speaks, $SPY squeezes for the rest of the day.
And then we have an epic dump in the following trading sessions.
Let’s see if history repeats itself or not.
Started March in a poor way
Risk management was out of line $-2,320 on 3/3 📉
I learned my lesson and I have practiced proper risk management and the result has been more consistency 🔑
Looking to carry this momentum into April 📈🥊
I’m excited to announce that today I’m officially launching Rocky’s Ring!
This has been a project I’ve been working on for a long time now.
My mission has always been to educate, inspire, and help others in the Stock Market.
Let's get to work!
Just a quick reflection of today’s trading.
Do it for all of the times you only had yourself.
If you want to be great at something, people may think you’re crazy.
I literally had $583 in my trading account in 2020. Today I made $7k.
Give it all you got, I believe in you.
Options Selling is going to change my life.
I’ve been doing it for the last 6-8 weeks or so.
I love it.
You don’t have to micromanage it 24/7 like a day trade.

This is my Battle Station.
The setup where the magic happens.
I have my greatest accomplishments on my wall as well.
- My Bachelor’s Degrees in Finance and Economics.
- My largest trading month of my career.
I may change the setup soon, suggestions?
As I turn 23 today I have a lot to be thankful for. I just want to say thank you to everyone who’s helped me get to where I am now. I didn’t start with much. I was just a college kid who loves Rocky and trading & now I’m living out my dream. Big things ahead for the Jordan year!
At the end of the day, I’m always going to prioritize my health over making money.
Take care of your mental health. Speak up. Life gets tough sometimes and if you need to take a step back from the market that’s okay.
If you’re going through something, I’m here for you. ❤️🥊
Last April was the 2nd best month of my entire trading career.
This was also when I had < 5k followers here on Twitter.
News was my main strategy, but a good trader can make money without the noise.
I’m focusing more on $ES_F & $SPY in quarter 2.
Amazing day on the bus 🚌!
$5,432.20 on the day for me 🥊!
$BBBY, $IRNT, $XPEV, $CCJ, $F, $IBM.
So many opportunities to bank, August is going to be incredible 🏦!
To celebrate the launch of Rocky’s Ring!
I will CashApp $50 to 2 people 🏦
I will also be giving out 2 free spots in the Ring
All you have to do is ❤️ and RT this post below 👇🥊
*Must be following* I will pick Sunday!
I’m excited to announce that today I’m officially launching Rocky’s Ring!

Let's get to work!
I’m 24 years old today.
I just want to zoom out and say thank you to everyone that supports me.
I have nothing but gratitude.
I’ve met lifelong friends on here, I improved as a trader, and I’ve had the chance to participate in amazing opportunities.
I will make year 24 one
Talking to my mentor, my Dad who was a former Options Broker on Wall Street about options pricing.
Discussing straddles to find the implied move for a stock’s ER.
The more you know ✏️🧠
+$9,727.32 today.
A top 5 day in my career.
Had heavy conviction on $IWM and $LVS.
I loaded both and even got in $LVS before more smart money joined.
It’s a surreal feeling to see the grind paying off, but I’m just getting started.
I’m on a mission.
I feel like $PYPL is getting to levels where everyone hated it just like $META.
And then less than a year or so later, $META rallies back to $250 from $88.
Different companies, but the time to buy stocks is when everyone hates the company.
One feature I’d love to see trading brokerages add is if you could add a stop loss on your options based on the underlying price of the stock and not the price of the option premium.
Would anyone be interested if I posted some
#RockyRecaps
from trades I took on Friday? I took news trades on $PLTR & $BABA. I took a heavy volume trade on $UPST. News on 0dte is a money glitch. I’ll show the news, charts, & fills! I’ll post tonight.
Let me know 🥊!
My Mom told me that people who used to work on Wall Street with my Dad were sending him texts and calling him asking “Is that your son on WSJ”?
My Dad told them yeah that’s my son!
All I want to do is make my family proud and represent my last name well.
$ES_F I’m a funded trader!
I’m very close to passing on a $75k and $100k account.
Hard work, putting in the time, and sticking to an edge is working wonders for me.
Futures are the future.
$AMZN looks like an A+ setup this week!
Calls Above $116.60 looking for $118 then $120+.
Puts Below $113.70 looking for $112 then $110.
There's a "Prime Day" catalyst this week and there's an Inside Bar setup on the Daily & Weekly time frames.
I’m red on the day. It happens!
-$1,177.34 was the result.
I ran 3 miles outside this afternoon and I feel much better already.
I lost on $TWLO and $GOOGL.
I opened some new swings.
Bounce back tomorrow!
I went from a broke college kid to a multiple 6 figure trader. You can change your life if you sacrifice and give the market everything you've got. I am living proof that this is possible. Trading has changed my life and I'm blessed to be where I'm at.

Discord.
I have decided to take a step back and focus on myself and my own trading journey.
I appreciate the community and everyone that supports me.
I wish everyone the best going forward. I hope everyone has a great weekend.
I’m going to try something tomorrow.
I’m going to click the button to hide my account value.
I want to take all emotions out of trading if I can. I’m going to trade the chart/my edge and not the PnL.
I’ll check PnL at the end of the day.
"The most important rule of trading is to play great defense, not great offense. Every day I assume every position I have is wrong. I know where my stop risk points are going to be. I do that so I can define my maximum possible drawdown."

I’m the most locked in I’ve ever been arguably in my trading career.
The last time I was locked in like this was June, 2021 and April, 2022.
June I did $41.6k, April was $34.7k.
I’m not playing around. I’m in the zone.

5 months ago he gave me the opportunity to live trade with him everyday on the

He’s inspired me to get better in all ways because no one works harder. I’ve improved as a trader and a person.
Love ya bro 🐸❤️🥊
I’ve taken a step back from Rocky’s Ring.
I’m taking a small step back from social media as a whole. I’m posting less.
As a result, I’m trading in the zone.
I’m on pace for one of my best months ever because I’m focusing on my trading journey first.
I love you all ❤️🥊
Stay away from negative people.
This is the problem with social media.
Whenever I post $7k days or $30k months there’s no positivity.
Whenever I have 2 bad days in a row…
Someone is praying on your downfall.
Thanks for the fuel, it’ll raise my game.
The average daily $SPY volume is 120.52m
Today's $SPY volume is 68.25m with an hour til close
Very interesting low volume melt-up the day before FOMC
🚨🤔
July, 2023 in the books.
+$29,702.21 overall.
My 4th most profitable month of all time.
Top tickers were: $AAPL, $AMD, $DDOG, $SOFI, $RIVN and plenty of others.
Excited for the rest of this year!
