Nice job Dustin. I still make those mistakes damn near every day. But as long as those mistakes still fit into a positive expected return, trading life is good. Say hi to Corey and Szeven for me.

SOXL was my second choice.

I'm kinda with you. I've been averaging into FNGU in my ROTH on an embarrassingly small scale. Completely different product, but still a leveraged ETF. Average entry is 34.15. Sort of an oops, but not really. It's more of just a fun experiment using a little algebra with very small size...

Good question. From what I know about Monte Carlo, wouldn't you have to do an MC simulation on every stock (while using the exact same strategy on each one), take the worst possible outcome for each one, combine them, and calculate your risk using that result? Just throwing my 2 cents out...

Shit, sorry. The Cliff notes were wrong. It was actually the morning after Christmas, when the Hessians were nice and hung over. Perhaps this is why this wee lad don't drink no mo.

Regardless of what others think.

Well, Washington does this improbable thing on Christmas morning and gets all kinds of cool stuff from the Hessians. Story ends. Cliff enough for ya?

Been there, done that...

I know exactly what you mean. I was a UPS driver back in 2012 and 2013 after a really bad year because of a lack of discipline/effort. I will never take trading for granted again. To answer your question, I use my scanner to add/subtract stocks from my watchlist. Then to repeat what someone...

No kidding. My firm is in NYC. I have my 57, they give me more leverage than I would ever use, and I trade in my sweats and a hoodie every day from my home in Wisconsin. I don't get it.

Just to be clear, I am only looking at the current day on all time frames. 1 min, 5, 15, etc.

I get a different POC level in different time frames. I've played with the settings, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. What am I missing? TIA

Have you looked into Trade Ideas? I can't trade without it. I've been with them for many years, so I'm Grandfathered in at $99 per month for the pro version, so I don't know how much it is now. But to be clear this is a real time scanner with an incredible amount of back testing capabilities...

One of the many reasons I still live in the country. I always have a large bottle of tap water by my desk. I can definitely tell the difference between tap and bottled. Not to mention the local city water is disgusting.

I went with this for awhile many years ago because I was desperate and just wanted to trade. Bad idea. I got a track record together, got my 57, and started making money. My firm takes 5%.

There's a simple algebra equation I can share. You won't make huge money, but it works in my TDA Roth with zero commissions.

Weight loss takes serious motivation. I lost 40 pounds in 6 months because of a girl. I never got her back, but I lost the weight. I'm still at 195, but after hurting my back, I just look like a flabby old bastard.

Is this a joke, or do you really have no idea when it comes to basic risk management? Not to mention Monte Carlo, etc?

Also with obesity in the US, I know that diabetes will continue and legs will have to come off. We will also see more strokes (obesity and baby boomers)...Hence MYO technology. Hate to see it, but it will be a reality. This is why I am 54 years old 6' 0" and 195 pounds in Wisconsin. (OK, maybe...
