You basically want to learn other peoples opinions but then share none of your own? If you're not discussing strategy what else would you be discussing? I can see this is a waste of time. Please don't post on my thread in the future.

There's being a contrarian and then being a toxic asshole who is counterproductive: Didn't really answer the question I asked earlier, which is if scalping is ticks or points on something like ES. You offered nothing of value and then insinuated I was stupid for asking such a question...

Why does everyone just advise someone quits if they say something you don't like? Maybe teach them, or tell them to look at it from another perspective? Why is the default 'you suck, just quit'? I guess people aren't allowed to improve? Did you come out of the womb knowing how to trade?

Why is everyone so toxic in this forum? Can't people ask a question they don't know the answer to and not get harassed? Did he do something to deserve all this hate? I tried fading myself. I realized it didn't work. Why didn't it work? The trading reverses and you end up making the same...

So why are you even here?

Why wouldn't you name them? Everyone is always so secretive in this industry. I'm willing to bet people could post their trading strategy, verbatim, and people would still mess it up and not be able to use it.

Thanks for the input. I actually tried Tom today during EU and he was having some sort of philosophical discussion on life. It was so weird I wasn't really sure what to make of it. The session lasted 54 minutes and then he abruptly left. Is this normal? I question his profitability. Very...

No kidding. I'm asking to define what scalping means to him, since this term gets thrown around a lot. Some people scalp for ticks, others points. What exactly does he mean by "don't scalp?". Not sure where the hostility is coming from, but if you're going to be toxic please leave.

What exactly do you mean by scalping? Are we talking the next few ticks, points, or the next 15 minutes to the next hour? If I'm trading ES are we talking 4 ticks, 4 points, or 12 points? I'm the guy trying to aim for 12 on some sort of large intraday swing between major areas of liquidity...

Why do failed traders teach? Don't they have any integrity? Is it incompetence or are they all just robber barons? I don't know if I could stomach knowingly selling someone else shit. Aren't they worried people will come after them? I would like to think they are just so moronic that they...

My question is: how do you know what is bullshit and what isn't? The barrier to entry for books, videos, and courses is so low it feels like anyone can put out something and sell it. Thanks Mike. Good to know. I'll check out Pax as well Sekiyo. Thanks for the heads up.

Larry Pesavento. I see he's got a bunch of books. I'll order some right now off Amazon. Thank you. NQ is a beast. I feel like I could do really well if I could tame it. You trade Extended Trading Hours at all or just the morning US session? I've also been looking into Eurex products since...

I have been noticing this a lot lately on NQ as well. Price seems to flip mid-morning and then run a bit. Multiple days I could have taken 100, but the entry with proper stop is key. It's almost like once the initial morning frenzy is over it finally finds its footing and then sets trend for...

Do yourself a favor. Learn Rust instead. It was designed to essentially be it's replacement (no more memory issues, and no garbage collection). Or if you really want to learn C++, buy this book. It covers C++ 20 and modern practices of the language: Professional C++ (5th Edition) by Marc...

Funny enough, I did too. The problem is that I don't know what I don't know, and while almost everything looks like a scam, and I am in desperate need to quality info, it sometimes makes me wonder... are there legit courses out there or is everything B.S.?

Not overnight. Mostly intraday swings. Trying to capture the bigger moves. I primarily trade NQ. Sometimes NG, CL, or bonds. I found that I get chopped out less if I aim for the bigger moves, but I don't have the margin to hold overnight or for many days. What would you recommend...

Dude's a piece of shit. Reads like a late-night infomercial: https://momentummonitor.substack.com/p/momentum-monitor-issue-3 Thanks guys, will definitely pass on this. Looks like he's running a bunch of websites, all of which sell different things.

Anyone here willing to teach me what they know for a cut of the profits for a certain length of time? Years? Or perhaps a "pay me when you get rich" type of thing? Not to sound juvenile, but if I can profit share with someone who will show me the ropes I'd be down for that. I'm at a point in...

That's a standard disclaimer that literally everybody uses. It raised red flags the first time I ever read it, but since this same, standard disclaimer is littered everywhere across the internet, I've begun to think it's standard practice to use it. Basically it's "we can't be held liable...

I looked him up. He's got a YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@landsharkcapital Dan Bustamante The problem is that when someone is new and starting out, almost no one will provide: tax returns, broker statements, 3rd party audit, or anything else. Every person I research won't...
