It's definitely a suckers game if you trade manually without a strict mechanical decision making system.

Coding strategies IS writing a software program. Profitable or not is a different story. Programmers have a lot of $ to donate to the market. Wall street welcomes them with open arms. IE: TechLead from youtube

They didn't lie, the bug is their server can only parse raw text file instead of a properly formatted JSON. Anyways, only programmers can understand the difference.

IF monetaryValue(current skills) > monetaryValue(coding) { hire someone to code for you } else { learn to code }

I figured it out, turns out I need to pass raw text instead of JSON for the params IE: { "acctId": "12345", "conid": 346577750, "secType": "FUT", "cOID": "test003", "orderType": "MKT", "listingExchange": "GLOBEX", "outsideRTH": false, "side": "BUY", "price": 7000, "ticker": "NQ", "tif": "GTC"...

Hi everyone, I am building an app running on Mac OS that needs to connect to my IB paper account to place orders. However the "place order" endpoint doesn't seem to work, always getting {"error":"You currently do not have trading permission for this instrument type. Update Trading Permissions...

He is not trying to make $ off investing but off his YouTube channel. I used to follow an guy called Financial Education back in 2017 when I was a noob. Total failure at the time, had me buying GoPro at $15 all the way down to sub $10 with him. Then I realized none of these guys know what the...

Invest in a systematic trading strategy with proven backtesting and live test on a paper trading account until one gains the confidence to use it live.

I would say anybody who has to post and ask for advice or even discuss their fundamental ideas on a public forum, doesn’t know what the heck they are doing. People who really figured out the key data/fiscal policies that forecast the market’s near future, won’t say anything about it publicly and...

If you trade off fundamentals you better know what you are looking at. No it’s not mainstream media economics or zerohedge.

Health is overrated. $ can buy health

I found a way to export my chart and signals into a text file. I can make a parser that turns it into object oriented programming classes that I can perform logic on. I can create a desktop app that constantly monitors the latest price/signals data and replace orders real time using REST API...

Problem is poor infrastructure. We only have one lousy highway from east to west and a couple from south to north. Other cities have rings of highway. Toronto is stuck in the 60s. 20 years living here and I don’t see any difference. Old buildings, same old roads, worse traffic year to year due...

That’s right I quit last month and am in the process of training to be a full time day trader.

I misread the signals at one point, I have a set of indicators that must all agree on 3 timeframes(1,2,3 min), I pulled the trigger on a trade that only had 1 and 3 min signals line up thinking it was going to work. Turns out the price reversed and stopped me out. Bad luck and shouldn't have...

I don’t want to be a shill for the guy and his opinions aren’t popular with the public... until the public is proven wrong but they will keep mocking his new predictions. He uses MMT(modern monetary theory) and applies it to trading.

I lived in Toronto for 20 years old and getting out of the rat race was one of the best things I have done this year. This city’s transportation is terrible. Very few subway lines and highways. The drive to work is 1 hour each way(20 km)and I don’t live outside the city. All the big companies...

If you want to swing trade/invest in the market, you need to know the fundamentals. And no you do not get the the correction info from mainstream media. Talk to me privately and I’ll share someone I follow who makes sense and been tell me to buy the dip every time since last December.

Haha it’s not real and relies on perfect execution. I started on a micro live trading today and broke even. It was a choppy day so even my system only managed 13 points, 8 trades. I did slightly worse live because of a losing rogue trade. Recent low volatility days are excellent for practicing...

I know that if my trading is successful and I am making $5k+ a day. The last thing I want to do at night is post on a trading forum, unless I am there to sell something. If i want to brag/troll, there are better places to do that. I have never posted on a software development forum in my 6 years...
