    Not enough natural gas to calm a global price rally

    It made me look at the position and do 5 minutes of digging. The weekly chart looks favorable too. It's not a large position, 283 shares at $4.23 trade price.

    Not enough natural gas to calm a global price rally

    Thanks for posting that. I've been long FCG since late March 2020 and was thinking about cashing out. Looks like I'll be holding it for awhile longer.

    Does trendline work?

    Nobody knows but with reading the price action and with proper risk management, you can make favorable trades. I'll gladly wipe off the fairy dust from that money I made on that magical trendline. Thumbs up on the Spinal Tap

    Does trendline work?

    You're correct. Trendlines work until they don't. Make money when they work. Have your stop in place for when they don't. This was from $ATOS today. That trendline was drawn from Wednesday and it continued into the future.

    Trader P/L 2021

    There are a handful of reasons, but mostly because I am spending too much screen time babysitting the equities trades. And there are thousands of stocks to look at. Yeah that means more opportunities but it takes time to find the ones that align with my strategy. Of course I have the go-to one's...

    TDA: I realized some gains today and will be rotating profits into a Roth. I will probably have less high % days going forward. AMP: made a bonehead mistake last night while testing a trade out on my phone and woke up to a huge loss. Account is now around $250. I will play some micro lots with...

    Totally agree with being efficient with time. I started studying successful people at 15 years old and over the past couple of decades I have tried to emulate their habits. Between spending time with family, exercising, rental properties, 3 vehicles, DIY everything, social life, I am booked for...

    I need to learn options. I can't put the time in to learn now but probably in 1-2 years. Although I've been reading and understanding options this year, I don't feel comfortable yet using them. It's going to be a great hedging tool when I fully grasp them.

    There is a negative outcome but I didn't mention it. Stock goes down to $1.50 or further like it did a couple of months ago and I have to ride it out for months, missing out on other opportunities since capital will be tied up in it. I'm swaying towards a trailing stop and then re-entering at a...

    My position in ATOS is now representing a large position of my stock trading account and my account reflects it with large swings based on its performance. It might be time to take some profit. I really believe in the company and think the guy behind it, Dr. Quay, is on his way to making an...

    TDA: AMP: No trades. Bought a new laptop and getting used to platform. It might be a couple weeks before I am comfortable enough to trade since I don't have much room for error.

    From the newbie desk: oversold shares

    I've done the same thing in TOS. I wish the last share #'s traded for the specific stock were saved/cached in the DOM so when you change the chart and applicable DOM it reverts back to the prior # of shares used for that stock. To check if a stock is short-able in TOS, check the upper left hand...

    I wish I was more patient with SCR. Sold it for a $2 or $3 gain from $16. I was in the hole early on so I was happy to get out with profit. I knew this bill was going to pass but I got shaken out. Good call on this one. Van's call on ELYS will benefit too.

    TDA: Most of the profits were from $ATOS which was up over 20% at some point. AMP: no trades today as my salary job took priority. I still need to get comfortable with the platform.

    Good point. You're correct about the deposit in February. I deposited around $15,000. The increase in April was a huge up day for me, I don't recall which trade it was but it was a large loss which finally turned positive.
