📣 New Video: The TCT Method on ES + Your Free Checklist

Three consecutive payouts. One funded account. One trading process.

In this walkthrough, I break down the First Light Beacon TCT method behind my $5,500 in payouts—from daily bias to the final entry confirmation, including when I wait instead of forcing a trade.

▶️ **Watch the full walkthrough on YouTube**

📋 **Download the free TCT strategy guide and checklist**

Keep the checklist beside you as we work through:

• Daily bias: Reading value on ES and NQ.

• Price and value: Waiting for both to close beyond the same Cascade boundary.

• Market confirmations: Checking Real Flow, SPY, and inverted VIX3M.

• Trade planning: Defining your entry, stop, target, and risk.

🔥 The Final Confluence: Order-Flow Aggression

The other confirmations set up the trade. Bookmap is where I look for aggressive buying or selling in the intended direction at my planned entry location.

If that aggression is missing, I wait.

Important Announcement: My Availability Next Week & Something New Coming!

Next week, I’ll be traveling with my family to celebrate my stepson’s graduation from the United States Navy.

We’ve rented an Airbnb for the trip, and I’ll be bringing my trading PC so I can continue trading during the morning sessions.

However, my availability for support will be limited throughout the week. If you need assistance, please use our new support ticket system, which was implemented yesterday. This will ensure your requests are properly documented and addressed as efficiently as possible.

Now, for something I've been thinking about...

I've decided to put together a video breaking down a particular trading setup that Beth has affectionately named "The Cowboy Trade."

I'll walk through the setup, explain what I'm looking for, and demonstrate how I approach the trade so everyone can better understand the process.

But before I release the video, I think this setup deserves an official name!

Beth calls it The Cowboy Trade, but I'm open to suggestions. Let's hear some creative ideas. Maybe we'll come up with something that sticks!

Thank you for your understanding while I take some time to celebrate this important family milestone. I'm looking forward to sharing the video with everyone.

Three Payouts. $5,500 Total. One Tradeify Account.

I’ve now secured three completed payouts from the Tradeify account I opened specifically to document the approach I’ll be sharing with you on October 26.

The payout record:

• ✅ September 29: $1,500

• ✅ October 12: $2,000

• ✅ October 20: $2,000

That’s $5,500 in completed payouts—all from the same account.

I started this account with a clear purpose: to back what I’m going to show you with documented results from my own trading.

During this live Zoom seminar, I’ll walk you through the approach behind these payouts and explain how I’m putting it into practice with First Light Beacon.

If you’ve been following my progress and waiting to see how it all comes together, make this seminar a priority. I want you there to see the process firsthand and understand what I’ve been working toward.
