    Any advice for a soon to be full-time trader?

    Sometimes you have to start walking even if you don’t see the whole journey. Putting myself in a sink or swim situation with so much on the line sure makes me motivated to succeed.

    Is The Lack Of Service/Product A Major Hurdle To Becoming Successful Trading?

    It seems to me that it is easier to generate income by investing in something that provides a good or service than it is by trading on your own. Note that i said easier, not better. I have been taking trading serious as a way to generate income for only a short time now but would like to here...

    Genesis From The View Point Of a Clinical Psychologist - Jordan Peterson

    Literal translations are for small minds...not everything that exists is obvious. Dont judge him from one paragraph...instead you should consider reading, watching, or listening to everything around it before passing judgement. The video posted above should answer your question nicely.

    Genesis From The View Point Of a Clinical Psychologist - Jordan Peterson

    Who exactly is calling him the professor of piffle? Uber Leftist politically correct trans genders that are more than willing to slander anyone who doesnt have the latest list of nonbinary gender identities memorized. Another good video on this subject worth watching.

    Have you actually listened to what he has to say? Asking because I have listened to dozens of hours of him and couldn’t disagree with what you say more.

    When Selling Options, What Delta & Expiration Date Do YOU Like?

    IV is nearly always higher than historical volatility correct? So it is my understanding that one should screen for high IV rank to select what to short as the premium will be inflated.

    When Selling Options, What Delta & Expiration Date Do YOU Like?

    Assume for this question that Delta and Prob ITM are the same thing. I have been watching the educational courses at Option Alpha and (when selling/shorting) he sticks with a delta of around 0.3 giving him a 70% chance the options will expire worthless...and 25-45 days till expiration as that...

    How Melatonin Helps With Fat Loss and Muscle Gain

    sounds good if you are a postmenopausal woman. The study on trained athletes at 100mg/day didnt mention anything about changes in body composition...did they not test that? or did they test it and results werent good enough to share? Seems like the benefits wouldnt justify the cost...there are...

    Why choose options trading

    You are right that i have (so far) only messed with short term options and that is probably one of my biggest mistakes as i am not a good short term trader. As mentioned earlier my entry points are never great and short term day trades turn into week long trades before bearing fruit. Im sure...
