Still hope?

I’m currently 9DPO my cycle is between 26-28 days. Glow has me projected to start my period October 5 which would be day 29. I’m thinking I’m going to get it October 2, 3 or 4. I had a dream last night I got 3 positive pregnancy tests and it ended up being a girl. It was so surreal. So waking up this morning I took it as a sign and decided to test.. BFN 😞 I also used those cheaply amazon stick pregnancy tests. Do those require more HCG? Is there still hope for me??
