    What do you think about that??

    Interesting how Nav being a scalper by day on the ES, was holding up to 200 DAX contracts overnight - dang, he had to have been using a hard stop loss.

    Say what you learn after start using Interactive Brokers

    IBs nightly hour reset is a real pain! They should at least give a warning/countdown prior to the resets. The blurb on their web site about the resets is very inadequate - no other futures brokers do such a thing - I am sure many customer's are upset about this.

    TSLA is toast? <--- epic selloff

    Elon musk mentions an alternate to Twitter & many fools went long on the wrong symbol thinking it's a competitor to Tweeter when it's an electronic company. This stock gained gained almost 4,800% from these foolish traders. The people that work for this company would be smart to sell their...

    The best investor is the dead investor (Investing beats trading part 2.)

    The way I see it , the person who gets to spend the most time doing what they really enjoy wins the game. In big cities they are always finding deceased people that turn out to be ultra rich misers/hoarders living in slums. Many investors & those that held good jobs forever have a lot more $...

    What should a successful Trader's day/week look like?

    I have to say, investing beats trading

    Every trader will have to wrangle how to avoid eating dirt in bull markets while the buy & hold crowd has it made in the shade. I deal with this by trading across shorter & longer time frame. Also trading against a few core positions. History has not been kind to markets turbo charged by...

    ES vs NQ

    When you have rotation like we are having now into the small(RTY) & midcaps(EMD), your stand to make far more following the relative strength. Holding one contract ES from open to close today you would net approx $3,186, RTY $6,000, EMD $13,000. I trade just about anything liquid that can...

    BTC - who still laughs about it?!

    Bitcon is a play on the global narco trafficking trade which is booming. I wish it was legal to buy/trade where I live but it isn't.

    Buying Index funds on portfolio margin

    When you have a single position with IB PM it is considered a highly concentrated position which requires a 30% margin - at least that's the way I understand it. https://www.interactivebrokers.ca/en/trading/marginRequirements/PortfolioMargin.php?ib_entity=fr

    Trade Halt Question on ACY.

    Penny stocks can be halted for weeks, sometimes months & it's not a matter of if, but when, if your trade them long enough. Position sizing is everything to avoid ruin. I will not use more than 5% of my capital on the garbage stocks- besides they don't scale well with larger trade sizes.

    Index Spread Traders

    Spread trading with futures sure looks appealing with the low margin. With spreads you can be close to market neutral & make large profits when relative strength changes. This is a hypothetical spread trade long +3 RTY & short -2 NQ.
