    3 trades for +15 ticks: 2 win one BE. Missing the big moves, which is the next piece of code to add: "see some big moves and then adjust out of scalp-chop mode". A bit tricky to write though.... Back to Open line now. Testing it on volume. This seems significant. Gotta hammer 16 to break...

    It is not raining $$$ everyday. Probably the loss days tell way more about your abilites than win days. Just like they say, when things are bad is when you can tell what people are made up. @schizo==true grit

    Price Action Swing Trading Futures on Sim Journal

    With due respect, consider NOT crippling yourself so much with: So little capital in a SIM account. Give yourself 20K. Enough to make some, lose more, make some back, lose even more, and then make it all back and then loose more, then make back into the green. That is your most likely...

    Don't take it too seriously either way. I think what you encountered is the difference in this thread and most, but not all of the threads. We are for the most part seasoned traders. We are so beyond, and done, trying to "prove" anything. Most unseasoned people are not traders at all. Yes...

    EOD Results: Not sure about the exact amount except, the worse case scenario occurred: Up about $1700 single contract at 9AM PT, then takes a long and sits on it until the bottom and then goes long: Net -1200. Notes: It hit the -2K stop loss. This was a safety valve. Good to know it works...

    how much do you get actually lending out short if you own shares?

    I just got my IB statement: There were two pages of loans. This is the very end. So yes there is real $ to be had if you have the stocks they need. The page shows a list of the ones I have and they loaned. They did not touch HOOD nor SBUX.

    Positive expectations are required for positive outcomes. It is a basic rule of life. Just like the rule of abundance. The more your give the more you receive. WRT the latter, think about it. You want to hang out with people who are generous and get some synergy or hang out with people...

    Risk management, where to start?

    Seeing as you are a beginner, it might be better to start, bottom up. There are MUCH MUCH more sophisticated models and what follows is VERY basic. That being said, it seems many retail traders don't even do these basic calculations. The priority is to not destroy your account so you can...

    Supports, Resistances, and Doji

    Not sure what you are trying to show since there is not context or even text, but some things: 1) There are far more than outlined AFTER the fact. 2) Realtime is the only actionable value 3) Even after the fact, you missed the actual ones that were tradable, like the 5000 level. 4) Do you know...

    Thinking about starting a small hedge fund

    No Offense intended, but this read like someone thinking about a new business and brainstorming catchy names for the LP. Short on the details, a bit of logistics, and not much else there. I am sure Chat GPT could come up with a better outline of the logistics, at that. Just remember you are...

    EOD 13 trades 84% net about +190 ticks after comms. Too bad on sim, but I found a couple of bugs that were Sim versus Backtest. Next week will probably go live and work on the "FOMC" day code for a sim run mid sept.
