12 Traders. 15 Screenshots. Michael Scharf Went 10 From 12 In His First Week. The Wall Had No Notes.

Michael S. Joined Saturday. Started Trading Monday. Closed Week 1 At 10 Wins, 2 Losses, 83% WR, $360 Net.

Ahoy there, Trader! ‍‍⚓️

It’s Phil…

This was a week where the market threw everything it had – a 15-point peace plan, Tehran calling it non-viable, the Nasdaq’s worst session since the war began, IV jumping around with every Iran headline, nearly a full-tilt RUT session on Thursday, and a deadline that moved to April 6 without resolving a single thing.

The Premium Poppers community noticed none of it.

Twelve traders. Fifteen screenshots. Four newcomers on the Wall for the first time. And a standout newcomer story that is going to be hard to top this year.

Michael S. joined the group on Saturday. Started trading Monday. Went 7 from 7 in his first two days. Closed week one at ten winners, two losers, 83% win rate, $360 net on one contract each. His take: “Easy to implement, easy to manage.” That is not luck. That is the system working exactly as it is designed to work from day one.

Rob O. has been quietly building a 10-1 record since March 11. Now scaling up – two contracts, waiting for the next loss before going to three. Renamed the Lazy Popper the “Lazy Pooper Popper.” Approved.

Duncan G. was the week’s most active trader with six entries logged, including a 5 from 5 VWAP session and a bearish BWB from Monday that he held all week and closed at 95% on Friday. His observation that the 2-day VWAP is a much stronger level than the 1-day is the kind of insight that comes from weeks of obsessive chart watching. Filed accordingly.

Chris T. posted another full transparency week. Two max losses wiped out three wins for -$121.40 on the week. Running total: +$496 over 75 trades at 80% WR. He also noted that Friday is his strongest day of the week across 55 ORB30 trades. That is serious data-driven self-analysis and it belongs on this Wall.

And Eddy IR makes a first-ever Wall appearance with a first-ever premium popper trade. 50% profit at 15:25. One to watch.

12 traders. The chaos was real. The process didn’t get the memo. Done by lunch. As always.

Notable Highlights

Michael S. is the newcomer story of the week – and possibly the year so far. Joined the group on Saturday. Started trading Monday. Went 7 for 7 across his first two days. Closed week one at ten winners, two losers, 83% win rate, $360 net on one contract each. His quote sums up the system better than any marketing material: “Easy to implement, easy to manage. SPX almost was a loss but it turned just in time.” That is not a lucky week. That is the system doing exactly what it is built to do from day one.

Rob O. has been quietly building something since March 11. A 10-1 record. Now scaling up the right way – two contracts locked in, not going to three until the next loss arrives first. The process-driven approach to scaling is textbook. He also renamed the Lazy Popper the “Lazy Pooper Popper.” This has been noted. And approved.

Duncan G. put in the week’s highest volume – six entries across five sessions, including a 5 from 5 run on VWAP setups and a bearish BWB from Monday that he held with patience through the entire Iran chaos week and closed at 95% on Friday. His observation that the 2-day VWAP is a much stronger level than the 1-day is the kind of thing that only comes from watching it happen over weeks. That goes in the file.

Chris T. posted a full transparency week again. Two max assignment losses on ORB30 wiped three wins for a net -$121.40. He filed it anyway. Running total: +$496 over 75 trades at 80% WR. He also spotted that Friday is his best-performing day of the week across 55 trades of sample data. That is serious self-analysis and it belongs on this Wall as much as any 100% ROC post.

Bill H. doubled his contracts and got out on the exact same bar right before Trump started speaking. “Almost went badly if I hadn’t gotten out quick, because it reversed completely since!” Right result, right reasoning, right timing. He will take it. So will we.

Eddy IR makes a first Wall appearance with a first-ever premium popper trade. 50% profit. One to watch from here.
