    Swing Trading QQQ

    The NQ is right at the upper descending trend line on the daily. The market has some decision making to do in the next day or two. I hope your short works out, but I'm just hanging out and waiting for now.

    Anyone else self-sabotage?

    Great subject. Great responses. I'm in my 28th year of stock trading, but I've recently had to deal with this since I started trading the NQs, which was originally based on my stock trading entry and exit tactics. Now it is tightly correlated with my stock trading strategy, but the tactics...

    A big rally by Monday close?

    Of course it could bounce 1%. That's not much considering the NQs are down 7% since the 11th. Anything could happen in this volatile environment.

    The Bear is in charge

    Well, I completely f...ed this day up. I've been getting much better at adding to winning positions lately. But even though I caught the beginning of the 10:05 AND the 12:15 moves in the NQ, I covered way too early on both trades, and I missed the 1:15 move completely. Tom Hougard's book says...

    Live trading attempt

    I hope it goes well for you. Is it automated? Doesn't matter if it is or isn't. Just curious.

    The Bear is in charge

    That kind of guessing is beyond my pay grade. I just trade here.

    The Bear is in charge

    There was basically a liquidity vacuum on Wednesday morning after the pre-market inflation data, as well as the sell off on the 4th after interest rates comments in the afternoon. But today was a pretty classic solid sell off. I wonder how many stops are set below 18,000 on the NQs...

    passed the SIE exam, now studying for Series 57

    Yes, I thought the 57 was harder than the SIE, but I passed on the first try. I used Kaplan, but you'll be fine with STC. Both have a good rep.

    Is Trading a Team Sport?

    I've had a couple of people express interest in seeing what I do, and I would have no problem showing them the ropes. Even if it means having them trade along with me in their own account while sitting in the same room. And I wouldn't charge them a dime. But I would never show my trades on...

    Think or Swim for scalping stocks. ...what am I missing?

    I have a Roth with TOS and will occasionally take a swing trade or a longer term investment, but I will never actively "trade" through them. But I've found it to be the most versatile charting platform out there for my style of active day trading. Maybe that's what others are referring to when...

    Stops

    I know you can get an alert when a trendline is touched or broken on Tradingview. Not sure about an actual stop while trading live.

    Emotional reset after every trade?

    In Tom Hougaard's book, he talks about the time he sat next to Luke Donald at a tennis tournament. Tom asked him if Tiger is a better golfer. Donald said "I don't think Tiger is a better golfer than me, if you measure it in how well we putt, or how far we hit the ball, but Tiger Woods does...

    THIS STRATEGY, ???

    I don't pay commissions in my Roth, but I always assumed it was because I don't trade much in it, and Schwab (I used to be with TDA) makes their money from advisory services. Maybe I'll start trading more actively in my IRA, LOL.

    Option Buying before Earnings ?

    Please show me an option where I can get filled at a penny just before earnings. Why would anyone sell it to me for that? But what the hell. Give it a shot and keep us posted.

    Kenny Glick's holy grail VWAP strategy that never loses

    That's what he wants you to think. I watched another video of his and he said his service is free until he gives you a winning trade. Oh my. What a bargain. VWAP has been around forever. I bet Geronimo was using it while interpreting his enemy's smoke signals. And anyone can customize it...

    Kenny Glick's holy grail VWAP strategy that never loses

    I watched for 10 seconds. I thought I was going to have an anxiety attack, so I had to turn it off. That's how he only has 6.7k subs.

    FINRA SIE Exam ... need study materials

    I used STC for my SIE and my 57. Passed both on the first try. And yes, the practice exams are critical. I think I used Kaplan for my 7 about 100 years ago. That didn't go so well on the first attempt. I think I got a 76 on my second try. (I'm not sure why, but I didn't see my final scores...
