If you are scalping and take small profits when it is your plan to go for the larger targets you need to look into your mindset. Need to be right, or fear of a loss are the two most common things when people are scalping or taking small winners. To overcome this, you need to be willing to...

Most brokers support oco orders and bracket orders. Look in to that.

It depends on what logic your trades are based. I have a hard fixed stop, but if it doesn't do what I like to see, I just get out and do not wait until it hit my stop.

You need to stick with windows. I like mac too, but I always got stuck migrating from windows to mac, if it comes to trading software and/or applications. Excel version for the mac is absolutely a different animal than the version for windows.

I have several, but Interactive Brokers is pretty good for what I need.

I will never say trading is easy. It can be simple, but easy is the wrong word for it. It can be effortless, when you are experienced and know what you are doing, but getting there does take some commitment to see it through.

I respect your opinion but I see it differently. It is not OR. After trading for a long period I have made a decision to share what it takes to become a consistently profitable trader. The reasons for doing this are not monetary but to have some other needs that have to be filled. Recognition...

I live in Europe and do two time slots trading, every trading day. The Europe open session and the Us open session. This is how my day looks: I wake up around 7 am. I take a shower, get dressed and eat my breakfast. I fire up the computer and leave it. I take my kid to school and in the car on...

Reits, wheel strategies, or making capital available for lending company's that do not want to use banks.

Where is the time they fell over when they want to go up a stair?

Thanks for sharing, I will look into it.

I believe it is a choice if you go for an income or compound and it should not be dependent on your strategy. Your strategy should depend on your choice of income or compounding. So if it is a choice, what do you prefer? Do you have an example of a strategy that is negatively skewed that...

What do you prefer? I know a lot of people that want to trade for an income and a very few that trade for a compound return on their investments. Or do you do both? Do you think you have another skill set needed for income trading and/or going for compound returns?

I would go in it with 1:2:8:4:1. Reason: not putting the highest commitment on the top of your scale in. If after 3 scale in you still have a loss possible because of added size, I would wait after the second scale in for a move that would set you up to engage a larger scale in and set the stop...

Indeed, I described the naked call. Good that there are others on the forum to correct it.

Because TSLA is at record highs, he lost money on the put he sold. Short a put option. Put sold = you pay the difference between the strike and the close if it is above the strike price of the put you have sold.

Although I do often buy the low of the day or sell the high, I also have more than one 'try' because it is not always really clear, even with orderflow. There is a shift and then a 'push'. That push comes later after the turn 'spike' and is not ready visible at the moment the low or high is...

I have plenty of people coming to me with years of experiences and frustrations that they are not profitable. They are very knowledgeable about almost every system out there but they do not know how they feel about them self's or even know why they behave in a particular way. I would almost say...

Are the key support levels you trade, key support levels? Support should act as a support, which means that if your stock gets to that level your change of holding should be greater than 50%, otherwise it is not key level support. Besides the fact, everything can happen on a support/resistance...
