I was bored. I took a small trade right before the market unexpectedly closed out on me. Thought it was gonna be one of those half days. :banghead:

Pics or it didn't happen...:rolleyes:

Hmm seems like IB should hold some responbility for not attuning their software for the unexpected to occur but what do I know.

Reddit is more like a place to inverse potential users for massive gains. :banghead:

ES/NQ down more than 1% and it hardly budged. It will def go down at some point and it won't be pretty but I don't like the idea of guessing tops & bottoms.

Tell everyone the market is gonna peak & crash then proceeds to buy the dip on Thursday.

The market is just one big p&d. Powell was just an excuse.

I didn't bother cause the charts is too small to make out.

I don't even think he is that bad but the fact he has a huge following of dumb money which creates liquidity for the banks & hedge funds.

It's a bit more common in poker due to it having more of gambling aspect but it's not bound to only poker or trading. Can happen in any competitive sport, career or even video games.

Sounds like something many poker players experience in their career. I got no solution for it. I just know it is likely linked to dopamine exhaustion which then leads to complacency right after a huge win or streak.

Banks & instituitons will intentionally drop prices just to prop it back up for liquidity purposes idk how companies doing a buyback work.

I think your wasting your time with unorthodox methods. If it was that easy to spot everyone will be rich buying OTM options on BBBY. Companies like doing buybacks when shares are cheap so it's impossible to tell whether their secretly buying back or institutions/retail buying the dip until...

How do you think the richest countries in the world all have their own stock market. Do you really think the fed is ignoring the stock market that generates billions each year to banks and institutions? No, most likely they already have a clue what the numbers are gonna look like before each...

Lets face reality 99% of retail lose money and have to face all sorts of negative emotions like fear, greed, anger, ego, anxiety, depression, stress etc. I'd hardly call that routine enjoyable. Anyone who says so otherwise is either still new (less than 5 years of trading) or miraculously...

It can be a counterproductive strat at times. Plenty of instrance where I kept averaging down on the NQ and it just kept retracing. Ofc, it goes back in the direction eventually but not until it stophunted my position.

Makes sense with their out of fashion brand.

It's easier to manipulate a move during low volume or after retail takes notice right before market opens. That's a lowkey pointless question.

I can see them going out of business in the not so distant future. When is the last time you heard someone say "I want a Ford". Most likely never even heard the phrase in your life.

As someone has mentioned the market can move a thousand ways depending on instrument, sentiment, market conditions etc. So waiting for a pullback may not always be the right choice from a non-risk management point of view at least. It's just the general consensus is it's always better to wait...
