    Pro Trader vs Amateur Trader

    Hello, Could you elaborate on that statement? From what I've read by you over the years I've had the impression that you're mostly into price action (Al Brooks?), but I think I saw another post of yours recently where you stated you're were now into algorithmic trading? Did something change...

    Possibility on selling unique TA on ES futures.

    Without going into great detail, surely you can tell the expected daily frequency / profit targets? I.e., are you attempting to capture a few of the larger daily swings or is this a scalping method taking out a few ticks per trade? Or something in between? I'd say if you've developed something...

    New sponsor - Deals & Discounts on funded trader evaluations

    Thank you for clarifying that. I'd say it's misleading, though. Wouldn't it be more accurate to say 10 people passed the $300K Combine? It does give gullible newbies (which I think are the main source of income for these firms) the impression that this company are seriously staking traders...

    Interesting. Been looking for something to better track performance and this might be it.

    Pro Trader vs Amateur Trader

    Funny video. I'd agree that I wouldn't characterize the so called 'pro' a professional trader. Considering that he's running a YT channel with affiliate advertisement I'd say he's more of a salesman, but it's possible he does both. Regardless. Impressive results in just one single week of...

    Cathie Wood's fund is losing money and this is how she describes the loss

    Everyone's a genius in a bull market...? :) That's what troubles me the most about this bull market to be honest. So many clueless people who've been rewarded massively and on top of that considers themselves master investors/traders. Usually long only and condescending towards anyone who...

    Cathie Wood's fund is losing money and this is how she describes the loss

    Reminds me of a sell-side big shot turned money manager and how-to-trade author in my neck of the woods. Great talker and salesman. Trader? Not so much.

    Should see a test of 4720 now, IMO. If that doesn't reverse this - 4730?

    Scalpers market. So far correct on ES bottoming out in this zone, but NQ is still looking heavy here. Not a good sign. I'll be more confident in buying above 4710.

    Higher time frames are heavy both on ES/NQ, but I would be slightly surprised if we roll over today. But who knows. Yesterday's was an odd day, anyhow.

    4700 should be a good entry with a tight stop - at least for a scalp. We'll either roll over here or bottom out in this zone (4700).

    New sponsor - Deals & Discounts on funded trader evaluations

    Hello, Having looked into various of these firms I firmly believe that the only serious alternative is Earn2Trade and I'm still undecided on if it's a worthwhile pursuit. My main complaint is that these firms have zero interest in funding traders, but collecting sign-up fees. So, let's just be...

    Wow. That was one incredible move. Puts the prior FOMC days this year to shame by a wide margin. Not often the market moves 50 points without even a 5 point retrace on the way. I haven't listened to any FED speak, but I suppose the market's pleased. Even at 0.9% at the end of next year that's...

    Point is it sounded like rates were actually rising, but when the rates are effectively zero that ain't much anyhow. LOL. 6 hours ahead of New York. Still wide awake. :)

    0.9 % one year from now.

    4660 - 70 if this get legs, but the day is still young. Too early to celebrate.

    ES Journal - 2021/2022

    Buyers showed up! :) Let's see if we can trade above 4620 and next take out the HOD from here. If not, possibly stuck in this range until FOMC. Momentum stalled as I was typing this. Range bound action still...

    Not a buyer in sight so far. If yesterday's LOD doesn't hold - watch out below. We can easily see a good drop today.

    Trading today's Fed.... the Powell reaction trade

    I expect yesterday's range to be taken out in either direction. Possibly both. That's all for today. :)

    Hence my question. It can be a bit confusing, although I don't object to how people measure what they share. Just good to have it clarified. 24 points on 3 contracts today. So, 8 points per contract. Not a good result considering the daily range and what's on offer, but at least it's not a...
