    ES Journal - 2021/2022

    Any details on this run? Just from 15K to 100K is very impressive. You mentioned that he's now taking 1 point on 100 contracts. Did he do something similar starting out? Obviously with less contracts of course. As for luck, I agree that it doesn't work over time, but we can't ignore that luck...

    I'm brand new to crypto. Tell me where to learn about it.

    No time for education. Cryptocurrencies are headed to the moon while we're studying up.

    Is BTC Reloading?

    As someone who wants to establish a basic cryptoportfolio for HODLING - I definitely feel the FOMO now. Wait for a pullback or just get on the train?

    Scalping is Risky?

    Personally, I'm with Tiddly on this one when it comes to day trading at least. A small unleveraged swing or position trade shouldn't cause much stress either, but I tend to want to check my positions more when I have a trade on. Today and Friday's catch (trade duration less than 5 minutes on...

    Shorting the Crypto market

    Good comment. Working on the research part - slowly making progress. RedDuke may want to clarify his own stance on the subject. I had a different impression than the one you put forth. Even if the market (as a whole or just part of it) would collapse at some point does not mean the end of...

    Shorting the Crypto market

    I don't know, but that's a separate issue. If tether is indeed being printed out of thin air it goes without saying that this could artificially inflate the market. But I don't know enough about this issue to say anything meaningful about it. I'm actually listening through a podcast where this...

    Shorting the Crypto market

    Very interesting. And you know all this for a fact, i.e., tether being 70% of daily crypto volume? And not just bidding the market higher, but supporting it? With the latter I mean - would crypto collapse without this support like you suggest? Or would it simply become less manipulated (higher)...

    Could you expand on this mechanism? Kind regards from a salty no-coiner.

    Shorting the Crypto market

    Why? Me and my friends are looking to buy/increase our exposure to crypto, but I'll wait for lower prices if you know something I don't. :)

    Feel free to share details about your current firm if it's not a secret. You can keep their name off the boards if you want to. Just curious how it all works. Are you trading equities or futures?

    please share your thought process when you are looking at charts

    And how many mall cops are still working as mall cops...? :) I don't know anything about the guy and those returns sure make him worth looking into, but without knowing how those returns are generated it's hard to say how much is skill and how much is luck.

    Prop Trading Business Model

    I'm already utilizing the same leverage they would offer on my own, yes, but I can't (and usually don't need to anyway) hold overnight. With this firm - you have to deposit your own first loss capital, so it doesn't seem to make sense to me unless: 1. The lower commissions/fees make it...

    T3 Capital. Contact them if you're interested. They seem serious. For equity trading it might be worthwhile, but as mentioned in my prior post I don't see the great value for a futures trader.

    Prop Trading Business Model

    Right. I imagine the value of such a firm would be relevant mostly to equity traders who may not have access to the same leverage. While I could utilize the same leverage on my own - they would offer me to use the same leverage overnight. So that could be an additional benefit. In addition to...

    Have to stay bullish medium term in this environment, but prepared for some weakness early next week. Someone became a bag holder on Friday.

    Prop Trading Business Model

    I talked to another firm which seems legitimate, but they require you to put up a first loss capital and where they're typically not interested in anything less than 20K. Now, on those 20K - they're not really offering any more BP than you would have on your own as a retail trader with intraday...

    This is news to me. Maybe some of the companies does this, but certainly not E2T or TopStep. I don't know anything about FTMO, but most of these companies aren't viable alternatives for serious funding. If you're a good trader you're pretty much always better off by funding an account of your...
