Hi there, I've been trading regular US stocks for a while. Intraday, holding between 5min and up to 2h max. Buy low sell high, or shorting. (not gambling, indicator based strategy) Just wondering if it's possible to trade common US stocks intraday as above - using options ? Is it possible...

It's mainly Hedge funds trading against each other (heard from a hedge fund manager), not the retail guys. The big players are each trying to get in low, and sell high, then short back down...

Is there a quick way to add an StopLoss to a order on IB ??? I mean, without choosing 'advanced', choose the SL box, set the SL price, press OK. Just a normal bar or case on the order entry window, to add the SL price ? Like IB has on the trading portal on the website... Automatic bracket...

Yeah, a friend of mine used the same strategy, and blew his account twice.... automated can't replace the human mind (maybe AI...) Thanks for the detailed answer. Yes, I enjoy meditating, but I need some different ideas, will google your suggestions.

Don't think TradingView has audible alert on the screener....

Hi everyone, as a intra-day-trader, I often find myself staring an hour at my scanner, waiting for a stock to fit my very tight filter criteria. I generally hate wasting time, and also going out of my mind like that. I find it difficult to read a book etc meanwhile, as I can't focus 100% on...

The hilarious is, this "wealthy people" who funded a trader which just blew up his 20th account, never asking for an audit.... How did such stupid people get wealthy ??

Sound you never experienced hard working !!! (like sitting on boring charts for months, backtesting, paper trading, etc) [just took a IQ-test now, to check if I'm worthwhile interacting with you :-))]

According to my indicator, BTC will climb back to 26800 sooner than you expect....

Do yourself a favor, and stop trading 'the trend' when the trend is already nearly over. If you don't use any indicators to analyze if the downtrend will continue, why should the trend continue ?! Typical beginner mistake, which will blow your account. (sounds like it's doing already) I know...

Maybe dumb question, but what undue risk could IB be exposed to with a regular order? they just buy the stock from NASDAQ at the current price, and store it on my behalf. If current price not available, the the order will not go through on NASDAQ, what has IB 'risk' to do with my order ?

Look into Tradezero.com or Tradezero.co

Hi everyone, In the country I'm residing know, TradeZero & IB are the best options (regulated, tax form etc). I'm trading common stocks and EFTs only, on NASDAQ & NYSE (arca as well) only. As I intra day trade, speed and liquidity are no.1 Easy layout for fast decisions no.2 Low fees no.3...

What way is market behavior different tuesday than thursday ?

You don't have an edge. That's why you're broke. And you're not even looking for one. I am, that's why I research....

Could you please specify in what way you find these days are better ? less volatile, more consistent gains, better TA ?

I'm day trading, mainly the daily top gainers and top looser (fitting my strategy). Are there specific preferred days, where price moves more significantly during the session ? Looks to me like Friday is a great day for day traders, had recently a few stocks which moved 10-60% after open on...

As a new trader, that will not help you. If your order dosn't get filled, and the price continues moving up, you will close position with even higher loss...

Why is the chart not so bad then ? I mean BBBY price now is (after dump) is still higher than any day of past 14 days ?

Yeah, got that as well, and the listed state of my current funds on the CEX is accurate. But as FTX got hacked with a lot of malware flying around, I would check it with the Bankruptcy Court. Personally, I've withdraw all my $ prior crash, when FUD started. Just some locked LUNA left lol...
