Still feel this way? Today was a pretty big up day. :)

I was thinking the same thing. Not sure if I can spot a single chick in any of those pics. Indian dudes must be some kind of weird... but I'm not judging so whatever.

So, I know nothing about this subject matter, but is Biden lifting patent protection that will hurt U.S. companies and benefit Indians?

Well, I think this strategy WOULD constitute a simple trend following system. You are basically selling the ones trending down or trending up less, holding the ones that are trending up the most! Let those profits run!!!

1 and 2 - See how I put all those things in brackets? That's because I'm not sure what the best numbers are, just throwing some out there for discussion. All ears as to any tweaks anyone wants to suggest, numbers or otherwise! 3 - you sell and buy mechanically as I've described, nothing more...

LOLOL!!!

Commissions/trading costs are almost nothing. I think they can literally be nothing if you are using Robinhood or IB light or other free shops. Taxes can be a bunch, but since you are selling your losers and letting your winners run you will be showing tax losses or small gains, at least early...

I was thinking about how I tend to try and buy stocks "on sale" and how I bet if I went back and calculated every time I did that I bet my results would suck. So, why not do the opposite? What about an investment/trading (whatever you want to call it) strategy, where you start with [30]...

I've not studied it, but those California (maybe other jurisdictions) decision(s) that Uber drivers are employees sound dumb as hell. As I understand it Uber drivers typically drive their own car and take whatever passengers whenever they want, and don't have to take any passangers if they...

LOL, perfect!

All I know is if they have adds on youtube that play all the time over and over again then they must know their shit because they had to have successfully traded to generate all that money to pay for all those adds...

Ohhhh, I see. You were saying that you were not witnessing any foul play to get you out of the trade, hence your conclusion, which conclusion was a good conclusion, not a bad one. Thanks.

Thanks Snuskpelle. I was really getting at the part where you said you did notice Oanda trying to keep you in trades as long as possible - what were they doing in particular?

Thanks Snuskpelle! Same question for you as I asked JSOP above. Also, you said "it's clear Oanda is keeping me in the trade as long as possible" - that sounds kind of scary. What are they doing to to try and keep you in the trade? I don't like the sounds of that one bit. Thanks!

Thanks JSOP. I asked this a long time ago in another thread that has been lost to me in time, so I don't know if anyone answered - but since there is no central market for foreign currencies, how do you KNOW you are getting a fair price? Is there not some central price reporting agency or site...

I dunno what it is, but when I see stocks off a lot I just cannot resist buying a little bit. Like COUR today. Apparently their results pleased analysists, but disappointed investors, and its off like 9 freaking percent right now. Had to buy me some. Just a wee little bit, I always like to...

Fuk market orders. I use the "MID" order on IB where it is supposed to get a price between the bid and ask (it will wait until it can), that seems to work very well. Have not seen a bad fill to date.

Garbage, pure and simple.

200k? You are being WAY too generous. Since I have no idea about FX trading, think more like 20k lol. Slowly. Over time. :)

Relatively new to U.S. I mean. But I think you knew that and were just making a funny. :p Thanks!
