    Poker player moving to trade/advise please

    Flattery will get you nowhere. I'm still keeping my $7.

    I'm back in, tomorrow

    Crap on a cracker. I was up well over +$200 and then TQQQ dropped like a prom dress. In the red. No big worries, the trend is my friend, but this is disappointing. The upslope in the morning session was way shallower than yesterdays, and I was pretty much resigned to only making maybe $300 by...

    Poker player moving to trade/advise please

    The main difference between trading and poker is you can't study your opponents individually for tells, etc. Bluffing is not really a thing, either. You can't really misrepresent what you hold, or represent what you hold when you got the nuts. You can't scare the market like you can scare a...

    I'm back in, tomorrow

    I'm in, TQQQ again. I was going to max out on the position size with 141 shares but I like nice round numbers like 100. Stock goes up a penny, I go up a buck. Stock goes up a buck, I go up $100. Easy to count my money before I got it. My pre-market starts at 0900 and I bought at 0900 for $12.80...

    Day trading profit target

    My target today was $500. I made $511, on just TQQQ, nothing else, one buy and one sale. Not bad for a micro-size account, right? But it was a logical expectation, one that relied on price and volume action and patterns. My target, or my P/L goal I should say, depends on my expectations from...

    Are there any Trading firms to get around the PDT USA citizens

    CMEG is one of the better offshore brokers. Of course that isn't saying much. If you make lots of trades, or small ones. commish will eat you alive. OTOH margin rules are a lot more liberal. But that can bite you in the butt too. I traded last year with a 50k account. I got out. This year I am...

    Pre-Marital Trading Accounts. No money ever entered from marriage. 50/50 in divorce or not?

    Hit the nail on the head. POW. Need to see a lawyer. SEE him. In person, in your state. Most internet advice is worth exactly what you pay for it. Nothing. Internet legal advice is worth less than that. You can easily screw yourself badly with misinformation in divorce proceedings. I am no...

    I'm back in, tomorrow

    Yeah I know, right? And I actually caught the entry and the stop/exit not too bad, in retrospect, though I was at the time disappointed with how my entry worked out. Then after lunch TQQQ went up some more. Meh. I was thinking about buying at the close for the overnight but now that I have had...

    I'm back in, tomorrow

    Stopped out. That's okay. I made my goal. I increased my account over $500 to over $9000 so for me it has been a pretty good morning for me and my micro-account. I only bought 100 shares and I could have bought 141 shares. So I might have just as well made $700 profit. It seemed like a good...

    I'm back in, tomorrow

    bought 100 shares TQQQ in the premarket. On the day chart it definitely looks ready for a surge of mean regression action. On the 15 minute chart, meh. But I am expecting a good push at the opening bell that should last until about 1130. Maybe a dip and more upwardness. Right now as I wait for...

    Where do you get your News?

    I don't trade the news. I don't watch the news. I don't read the news. Just a bunch of idiots running around screwing up the world. I don't need it. It just pisses me off, anyway.

    Well looky there. TQQQ down to $118. Nice. Maybe it will go down some more and I can pick it all back up again cheaper.

    I'm back in, tomorrow

    Bought 100 shares TQQQ, with 2 daytrades available. I will probably be using one of them at the closing bell today. I am currently using over $3k margin and I don't like to have any margin overnight. The bulk of this position is probably going to be held at least 3 or 4 days, maybe a lot longer...

    Ideas For Now-

    Here in New Orleans there are traffic cams all over the place. However they are not generating any tickets. You see the little blue and red light required by law here, but nobody slows down anymore. That doesn't mean nobody is watching or that they can't replay the tape. (actually a file)

    I'm back in, tomorrow

    Well, everything I held over the weekend got sold at a profit. I am out, clean, clear. Back up to $8127.90. I would have been better but I bought 50 shares TQQQ just before the bell and it did good until it did bad. Stopped out, $70 loss. I should have held SRNE longer. I failed to fully...

    Am I Wasting My Time?

    Yeah you are probably wasting your time and money. Statistically speaking. Unless: 1. You are one of the 10% or so who actually get good at this eventually, or 2. You enjoy it and the money you lose or could lose is expendable. Sorry. It's just money. You can always get more if you put a...

    TQQQ. How much higher can it go?

    Well I guess I will stay long on Nasdaq stuff for now. I wasn't gonna short anything until I had definite signal anyway. Rather just stay out of equities until things resolve one way or the other, than start shorting stuff before I got to. Honestly I don't like being on the short side anyway but...

    Help with VWAP parameters

    Okay thanks everyone. HLC3 it is. I used VWAP often in TWS but I have been doing something a little different in TradingView. I was going through a couple of books and reviewing a few strats to try out or to retry now, two years in to trading. In TradingView I have been using a similar...

    Well, whether statistically right or wrong, you are playing up a stereotype. Why not just drop all racial or ethnic references except where they are actually on topic? That would be the safe path, I think.
