    What do you think matters most in trading?

    As I told you, there is no gambling in what I do. But of course, if you like to see it as a "gamble", you are welcome to see it that way :) It will not change anything for me :) To me, "gambling" is when for instance one uses some TA signal to trade. Or when one uses just his own sentiment to...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    The fact that the sun has been there for four and a half billion years, will not give you any "certainty" about tomorrow :) (After all, it must die sooner or later anyway, like each one of us.) I am not against gambling. (It's just not what I do with investors' $$$, unless I am told to.) But...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    I am afraid to inform the readers, that there is no legit system generating "a profit every day". Apart from those backtested by clueless cranks (or created by money launderers) :) ["Realized" or "unrealized" are merely accounting terms (with quite arbitrary definitions, as they depend on the...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    Certainty, in human activities, does not exist in an "absolute" sense. It's just one of the many abstract concepts the human mind is capable of :) When you wake up and go to work every morning, are you certain you will be back ? Probably you are not "certain", but normally you come back. Every...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    "Small", and "large" are adjectives that are obviously meaningless out of context. What might be a large amount for me might be considered negligible by Jeff Bezos. Now, we must deal with facts and reality. A fact, for me, is that I would not be able to trade, with my approach, accounts that...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    It is just what I observe, in real trading, with my approach and strategy. Of course, if you think it "should" not be so you are free to continue having your opinion. I am just reporting what for me is a fact (I repeat, for the specific approach I use, which relies on portfolio margin). It...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    yes, deaddog, we have different perspectives. I deal exclusively with automation, and for me, it would make no sense to deal with relatively small accounts. It would be like shooting a mosquito with a big cannon. I would not even have a suitable strategy for those. Stocks also would not even...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    Yes deaddog, as I mentioned, it strongly depends on the strategy used, and the casino analogy may not apply. For some approaches, it may be not true. In my own approach, it is true. This happens because my automated system tries to "overload" its activity when it sees some larger or extreme...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    Sure deaddog. Some most important reasons I can think of now are: - suitable instruments have significant margin requirements - you need enough "slack" to weather drawdowns - traded funds must represent an almost insignificant part of your wealth so that you do not panic and start messing with...

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    Capital is just a prerequisite. Do not believe in quick-rich stories. Also, think about all the infinite $$$ that needs to be laundered, and you will have the explanation of many "phenoms" out there. It's not by gambling that one can make a consistent return. Gambling is entertainment that can...

    I have been censored and kicked out of LinkedIn after decades :-)

    "discussion" appears to be a big word for Linked↓ , Overnight It's more like a tam-tam and idiotic brainwashing and propaganda attempt from the owner and the advertisers immersed in some retardTown, populated by desperados. Lately, it seems they are really afraid of people freely discussing...

    Do not trust me too much, remember the 99.9%. I did not say I do not belong to it :-)

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    Use common sense. Most (99.9%) of the things you (think to) see or hear in the "trading world" are plain BS or covers up for other stuff :-)

    What do you think matters most in trading?

    It does not matter what one "feels" if he does not know what he is doing in the mkt, and if lacks capitals :-)

    Common sense. Almost impossible to find. :-)

    Building a new social (or a "chain" of them): your suggestions

    These emojis are really a mess, as the codes are scattered all over the place :) What I will do is select just a few of them to be placed on the editor menu for quick selection, and many others of them put into a selector. Something like this (I still need to select the few to put in the menu...

    Building a new social (or a "chain" of them): your suggestions
