    This is a great question. I know one broker who sets a deadline of 4 pm for day trading margins. Then from 4-5 pm they set them to full CME margins, and then from 6 pm till 8 am, they set it to overnight margins. Don't ask me why they do it this way. BTW: my software platform allows me to...

    Trump just seemed to have given his victory speech 10 minutes ago.....and maybe deservedly so having won FL and TX and having a lead in PA - my state.

    Of course the most ridiculous market to trade right now is crude oil. SaudiAramco, OPEC+, and the Russians just control the market for the most part. The fundies really indicate crude should be below 30. And what about a Biden victory ? No more "dirty" energy....LOL. We'll all be driving around...

    Yeah, right....so just go with the EMini Micro contracts where the commissions are anywhere from 50 to 200% higher than the "full" contracts for the same leverage. I just completed a comparative analysis. Man, the brokers are just cleaning up with them. Who once said "Greed is good" ? LOL.

    I want to dedicate this post to all of the perma-bulls and long-only traders out there. This includes: 1) Robinhood traders (see attached article) 2) Jim Cramer - never, ever recommends a short position 3) Jon and Pete Najarian with their stupid "unusual option activity" segments on CNBC. They...

    From Micros to Millions: 2% per day

    Indeed, this sounds so familar. I was uber-bearish this summer, but I was wrong. Then in early September, the last short finally covered and we FINALLY went down...especially NQ. So with that bearish bias in the summer, I made little to no profits.....naturally. From you what you said, it...

    That would be those Robinhooders who were long call options. Man, the big hedgies are cleaning up this week with their short tech positions. However, they had to take the heat for weeks.

    From Micros to Millions: 2% per day

    Just for perspective and to demonstrate the potential of swing trading, there was a 200+ pt move down in NQ today within 30 minutes. That was a $20k winner on a 5 lot short trade.
