    Orca Taking Out Great White

    Not aggressive towards humans, in their wild/natural habitat (the whales, that is, that we know of, anyway).

    Palm Desert, Indian Wells, La Quinta

    These are big retirement areas. Lots of HOAs, country clubs, etc. Probably lots of investors, but not too many traders. Full disclosure ... my Dad is retired and living in Palm Desert. Anyway, try starting a golf or pickleball club :)

    If you use stop losses then you are essentially gambling

    I would think that using no stops is more akin to gambling.

    Half of the US can't afford to pay rents??? Hmm..tough to believe!.

    Here in NY (NJ) a landlord can't legally just throw out a tenant. There is an eviction process. Eviction easily takes months, possibly longer.

    Nearly scammed by a real pro ...

    I suspect that they've thought of that, and I'm not going to assume that I can be smarter than they are. Anyway, I've not lost anything yet, except maybe my pride. And I'd have to think like them, which is not how I'm wired. I just want to have nothing to do with them. What with all of the...

    Nearly scammed by a real pro ...

    I don't think that most of us become prudent until we've been greedy and lost. And that is what I worry about. Anyway, I think the best way to "scam" the scammers is to raise public awareness. Which is what I'm trying to do.

    Nearly scammed by a real pro ...

    Yea, apparently the Asian market is saturated with these scams, so there is a real awareness over there about them. And according to the youtube videos I've been watching, the UN estimates there are about 250K of these scammers in southeast asia alone (many human trafficked into it).

    Nearly scammed by a real pro ...

    Anyway, I count 16 unique users replying to this thread. Three of whom (myself included) have run across a similar scam (directly or indirectly). That's about 18%. 12% if you deduct me.

    Nearly scammed by a real pro ...

    Good luck with that. Anyway, yea, it seems they are good at English (somehow), and our norms, etc. "Daisy" would text me about going to the gym, meetings with clients, etc. And always a good morning text. I felt really comfortable in the "relationship" until the crypto investment suggestion...

    A software consultant who day trades stocks gained 805% in 2023

    "And Gajjiala could have saved a lot of time reinventing the wheel... had he just read about MACD." But how does MACD address volume? A key component of his strategy?

    Karen Carpenter---The Greatest Female Voice of All Time

    Her voice just wraps around you, like loving arms. It's really interesting that so many folks are just discovering her/them in the last couple of years (myself included) as evidenced by you tube reactions.

    Down to about $90k, where would you park it if your trading skills were trash?

    I agree, but most new traders don't expect to lose it. For them, the sky is the limit (we've all been there). Risk? What's that? It's only when you've lost it, that you understand.

    I forgot to mention GNOM, which is a big loser also :(

    Down to about $90k, where would you park it if your trading skills were trash?

    I like GlobalX ETFs. I'm in a couple that are doing fairly well now (BOTZ and AIQ), and in one that is not (POTX).
