    Do you use any cryptocurrency tax software to simplify the process? Why or why not?

    I wrote a crypto bot in 2018 and I've been using https://bitcoin.tax the last couple of years for many thousands of resulting trades. They support all the exchanges I care about and using (read-only!!!) api credentials from each exchange, the site pulls in trade data automatically. TurboTax...

    Cramer selling some bitcoin.

    It didn't seem notable at the time so I didn't post about it. I have a decent amount of crypto but it takes a back burner since most of my active trading is in leveraged ETF options and futures. The upshot is even when I make a larger than usual crypto trade (for me) it doesn't feel as...

    Cramer selling some bitcoin.

    I sold about a quarter of my stack when it hit 64500 on Kraken a few days ago. Even in a meteoric rise, bitcoin regularly retraces 30% or so before taking back off. Happened multiple times in 2013, 2017, 2019 preceding the eventual big dump, and it happened in January 2021 though the next big...

    At the risk of being insensitive, how fcking stupid do you have to be.

    VIX Volatility Adventures: UVXY revisited

    It's gonna be glorious when UVIX and SVIX finally start trading. Like the good old days of XIV and TVIX but with much less chance of catastrophic failure due to changes in how the rebalancing works. Details: https://www.sec.gov/rules/sro/cboebzx/2021/34-91264.pdf and...

    Negative reactions from relatives II

    I think the administrators closed the original thread. Maybe it veered off topic or something. For what it's worth, I get the same notice "insufficient privileges". Maybe @Baron can fill us in.

    Buffett’s ‘Tone Deaf’ Annual Letter Skirts Major Controversies

    "Buffett’s ‘Tone Deaf’ Annual Letter Skirts Major Controversies" Waaaaah, he didn't tell me what I wanted to hear. Maybe he isn't saying less here but was saying too much in previous years and has nothing left to prove. At any rate colorful shareholder letters are atypical. Maybe his successor...

    Anyone ever try the nibble nibble, dribble dribble trading (investing?) strategy?

    The market goes up a lot more than it goes down so you're almost always better off going all in with your lump sum than dollar cost averaging over any length of time. The main exception is if you know for a fact a crash is imminent and you wait to get in at the bottom. But then if you knew that..

    Family of Robinhood user who died by suicide sues company

    Jordan Peterson says this a lot. If you just gotta kill yourself why not wait till tomorrow. Then tomorrow maybe wait till the next day. You don't have to do it today.

    How often have tax cuts for the rich trickled down? Never.

    The ever growing consensus that the population's existence revolves merely around government's ability and whim to maximize revenue can't end well.

    Time to stop ignoring Crypto...which trading platform?

    Kraken https://www.kraken.com/ is a reputable US based exchange that trades lots of different coins and offers leverage as well as shorting to US users which is something a lot of other exchanges don't.

    The S&P 500 topped at 3481

    If you're going to pattern match, you're almost always wrong calling any specific moment a top. The S&P 500 has closed within 5% of its all-time high 32% of days for its entirety. 1 out of every 15 days the market closes at an all time high. And the vast, vast majority of those don't end up...

    Cannot find an API that allows me to redistribute price of Dow, S&P500 and Nasdaq

    Oanda has contracts for difference that follow the major indices, the upshot being the prices for the respective CFD's are practically identical to the real thing (check the screenshot for the SPX500USD example). The terms for redistribution from Oanda are probably a lot more agreeable if you...

    I opened an investment account with 20k USD, zero stock experience, and a dream

    WSBGod was banned from wallstreetbets a while back when it was discovered he was just a sock puppet for the original wsb founder Jaime Rogozinski who was using the WSBGod account to drum up forum subscribers and media attention in an attempt to sell books, courses, and cash in on the popularity...

    Billionaire Melvin Capital fund manager is amazing talent or not so much?

    You may be right but I imagine it's a little easier if unbeknownst to you you're taking the kind of risks that work most of the time but then end up losing 50% of that 10 billion in less than a month.

    2020 in $$$- how did you perform

    I decided to do something really stupid so went and bought 1000 shares of SOXL in April. I'm still holding. That along with a nice /NQ long, swing trades in my other stock account, and a long term hold of Bitcoin and Ethereum and, hey, I'm not complaining. Hopefully 2021 is even better.
