    market weakness

    Buy the dips then if no data "triggered it". Surely that means we'll get a monster rally on Monday :p Seriously, as a stock "trader" you should be trading the action, not questioning why it's happening.

    Are there full-time position traders?

    I was being somewhat facetious, of course long term position trading can work. I just prefer to trade intraday and end each day flat. Personally, I don't like to expose myself to overnight risk and the instrument(s) I trade are very thick so I can trade sizeable positions intra-day and be...

    Is Jeff Bezos the world's most successful con artist?

    The key to ordering a lot and not paying for shipping each time. If I can avoid going out and buying from stores I do. I order dog food and other normal household stuff all the time. I cant speak for the streaming, I really only have it for free 2 day delivery.

    Is trading worth it in my situation?

    Does a kid who is just about to start medical school ask how many brain surgeries he will be performing on people in his first year? You should know that most everyone struggles for the first two years (or more) to make anything, let alone not blow their account up. If you are breakeven...

    Finding Work after Quitting Daytrading

    I'm sorry but this just cannot be true. Every strat, on every asset class on every time frame? So you've used the 337 second chart for the QQQQ? Or the 37 min chart on the SPY? I don't know, I believe you tried to work many different angles but not sure you are being honest with yourself...

    Why not enroll in some kind of technology school or program where you won't need to lean on your network or connections. You'll come out with a real skill that will be in demand and probably pay pretty well.
