    Does trendline work?

    Yes, they work but chances are the average trader will go bust attempting to trade trendlines. It is not as easy as it looks. There will so many days where it doesn't respect trendlines or they're extremely difficult to plot correctly. Anyone can connect the dots in hindsight.

    How can you tell when the trend is over?

    Users here are more reluctant in spoonfeeding strategies. That's a million dollar question. You will have better luck on reddit, youtube, google etc.

    How can you tell when the trend is over?

    When it breaks the trend. Stops making higher highs lower lows.

    Analyst forecasts are worthless

    Anaylst upgrades/downgrades are very often used for manipulation of a stock. That's all their really good for.

    Crazy paper trading day

    A drawdown is a peak-to-trough decline during a specific period for an investment, trading account, or fund. A drawdown is usually quoted as the percentage between the peak and the subsequent trough. If a trading account has $10,000 in it, and the funds drop to $9,000 before moving back above...

    Crazy paper trading day

    Today was an easy day. Went only short after 10 am and still made a killing. Much easier to trade on paper though. For some reason, when I trade in a real account either things don't go my way or I mess up. I only trade 10 ES contracts. 100 contracts is crazy and if you were trading in a prop...

    Scammers Scamming Scammers

    video games and trading

    He used one life sample size from a Japanese local shop to determine there was a universal law in all games at the age of 6? Simpleminded genius? Video seems a bit contrived tbh. (Not doubting he made 33 million trade profit tho.)

    S&P 500 going to 4100 again?

    Today was the mother of all chops. Big middle finger to all those expecting it to go in any direction.

    Daytrading ES

    I guess what I wanted to articulate more precisely is I like to ride trends so on days the market chops up like that is beyond frustrating. I haven't adapted my strategy completely in these type markets but I basically figured the gist of it.

    Daytrading ES

    I am well aware the market ranges 75% of the time but knowing something doesn't mean you can apply the knowledge. Just as I know smoking is bad it doesn't stop me from doing it anyways. Yes, I really need to work on my discipline and get my shit together.

    Daytrading ES

    Well easy for me but that may not be the case for everyone. But for certain it's easier to post winners than trade winners in a real money account. I know after 4 years of discord.

    Daytrading ES

    I really don't waste my time trying to predict the market anymore after transitioning to futures. With options it makes more sense since your holding for longer periods. Just trade price action and go off the 5m, 1m charts.

    Daytrading ES

    As I said above posts. Giving out calls means shiet. There is no emotion or the fear of loss. No matter how much your calls are fire for others when it comes to your own trading it's a completely different story. Giving out profitable callouts is easy, it's trading that is hard. If you think I...

    Daytrading ES

    Bruh I have given countless callouts that were right on target and that isn't even 1% on discord where I use to be a top analyst but you don't see me acting all high & almighty. If it's one thing I've learned as an analyst on the discord giving out profitable callouts/predictions is way easier...

    Daytrading ES

    You laid out 2 scenarios. That's not very difficult to do considering there are only 3 possible outcomes of the market either moving higher, lower or consolidating. 1) Inside Day mostly moving higher, i.e., a positive consolidation day 2) Continuation lower below 3920.

    Everything is predictable with hindsight. :rolleyes:

    Daytrading ES

    My biggest issue with trading the ES are the Algo's constantly hunting your stops & chopping the market in a range instead of breaking out on one side. Makes it worse when I overtrade and after noon when the Algo's take over. Force of habit!
