    Help needed - I overtrade after 11am

    Ken, your Fidelity account offers free trades, so I'm guessing they sell your order flow. That said, I think the major ETFs, including the triple ETFs and UVXY, are all likely dominated by smart money, and it's easier for them to trade against your order flow and you lose. Conversely, your...

    What do you value most in a Trading Chatroom?

    Ken, I thought you were getting free trades at Fidelity. Your image here shows that you paid $26,728 in commissions this year. So which is it? Are you getting free trades, or paying $26,000 per year in commissions? Lol.

    The stocks in your portfolio are all sized differently, ranging from $100 all the way up to $2800 and everything in between. How do you position size, Ken?

    Advantage of looking at your trades as a Sequence vs one shots

    Advantage of looking at your trades as a Sequence vs one shots

    Wow, backwards from what I would have guessed, haha. I thought second entries would be smaller due to seemingly larger risk. But if the stock is moving in your favor, perhaps you are right to enter with larger size on your second and third tiers. We move on to stops. Would you use trailing...

    Advantage of looking at your trades as a Sequence vs one shots

    Can you describe your thought process as you are about to add to a winning position, Ken? There are so many possibilities for "how to add to a winning position", such as: 1. SPXL has moved .25 in my favor, I will double up immediately. 2. SPXL has moved .25 in my favor, I will wait for a...

    Undertrading vs Overtrading.. your thoughts?

    How do you position size Ken, when trading 10 symbols, some of which are 2x, 3x, 4x ETFs, while other stocks might have a beta of 1 or 1.5? (Side note: I jovially refer to UVXY as a 4x ETF, lol). Please give an example. For example, if you had a $100,000 account coming into today, and you...

    ES momentum trendline sloping down as ES hits new highs.

    I hear what you are saying about price rules momentum, but on the other hand, without momentum, I would have to disagree with your speeding train analogy. I'm in with a 25% position at 502, looking to add another 25% tomorrow if it breaks today's low. Looking to increase further next week...
