So today I kept it very laid back, with 300 shares CCL, made a modest no-stress profit, and I will be holding it at least until Tuesday. TSLA was looking good coming out of that bottom reversal but I didn't buy because I wouldn't be able to sell and I didn't think it was looking like a good...

Long CCL here. Made a nice little win. Thought about some SQQQ but then TQQQ put on a rally and I was glad I waited. I really think we will see the NASDAQ retrace the dip, or most of it, by the end of Tuesday. TSLA? I think it will be driving the move. So if you want to sell something short...

So yeah I lost a bunch in TSLA. False buy signals and I really wanted to ride that thing up to $600. Anyway so finally I soid off for the last time and bought a small stake in CCL to hold for a bit. I am going to let the Alpaca account settle now, so I can empty it out and put it all into my IB...

Yes now that I think on it, you may be right. Monday will be flat. Good day to finally spend some time configuring TWS on what is supposed to be my trading computer. I think maybe I was right about support for TSLA at $400, though. It is just too tempting at that "cheap" price and just a...

I'm in, CCL, long 400 shares. Looks promising between now and the holidays, and maybe after the new year through Easter.

Well played. I should have bought SQQQ this morning but I was all neggy over losing "some" money in TSLA. I think it is maybe gonna find support at $400 but I won't bet on it just yet. Anyway the last couple days, probably today, and maybe tomorrow it is picnic day for bears, especially in...

That wasn't to help you. That was to help traderking007. And I am sure he is fine, now. But I have really given all the advice I can give that could be helpful, without writing a book for you. Speaking of which, Amazon has lots of them. You can't possibly have actually studied any "How to Day...

Why so touchy? Toothache? Too much caffeine? Don't let the internet mess up your digestion. It's just the internet.

Finviz is good. TradingView is good, too. TradeIdeas is great but pricey for a noob with a small account.

You should ALWAYS set a stop, ideally at the same time that you buy the stock. Look for a firm level of support. Imagine your stop there. Now look at the price. It is really nice to have your buy-in price just above that. The idea is if the stock falls below support, it is likely to keep falling...

Now you done it. They will probably increase the limit to $100k, now.

Upgrading to Linux in one of the more popular flavors doesn't require technical savvy. Properly securing a WinDOHs system is actually a lot more technical than installing Ubuntu or Mint. From there, just use good computing practices, especially on your trading computer. The only real problem is...

Linux is technically and theoretically not totally immune, but with intelligent computing it is as close as it gets. One reason is that it is an open source operating system. There are a million nerds out there poring over every line of code and looking for exploits, and though very very few are...

A nice article on CNBC Pro.

Meh. I thought it would give me at least a little profit. Maybe it will gap up tonight. Pretty sure it will start moving on up, tomorrow. It was just way overextended on the day chart and had to take a correction. The trend continues. Alpaca is really being hardassed about turning loose of my...

Hmmmmmm.... well, maybe it won't... today. I'm down a good bit, at the moment. But the day is not yet over, as Worf would say.

Do you have a stop? Without a stop, yeah you kinda have to keep watching it, unless it is a buy & hold or a long term swing trade. But I have a feeling you will learn this on your own, even if you forget what I have just said. Why don't you spend a few bucks on a couple of good books on day...

100k millenials all got stopped out this morning and now TSLA is probably going to retrace to the overnight high, around $538. So around $60/share if you buy now!!!!! I'm in for 40 shares!

Back in shortly after the bell. Long TSLA, 20 shares in each account. I was expecting a bit of a dip at the open and that's just what I got. Unfortunately I bought too early. Stock went down a lot more after I bought at $492. So I start out with a big loss. That's okay, I am looking for $540 or...

5:1 split. I made $2215 today, long TSLA. It didn't actually go down, just got divided into smaller shares.
