    Preferred days in the week for day traders

    Yes, I've analyzed this stuff (days of week) extensively. And for the strategy/model I am using, Tuesdays are clearly not profitable (on average). I can understand that for others strategy/model, there are no differences.

    Preferred days in the week for day traders

    I've never seen a 7 foot Chinese guy, so it doesn't exist. I've never found any edge doing this or that, so it doesn't exist. It's not because you haven't found something, that it doesn't exist. Some make money using TA, some others say it's useless. Some make money using Elliot waves, some...

    Preferred days in the week for day traders

    It depends on the strategy/model that you are using. For me, the best days are Thursday & Friday. The worst, Tuesday.

    overtrading

    Like @schizo said, if you are profitable, overtrading might not be a problem. Chances are, you're not, and overtrading just make you lose more. There is not silver bullet. 1) Have a plan. 2) Stick to it. 3) Rinse and repeat.

    Can price predict it's own future?

    When? Today, tomorrow, next week, next month, next year? And until then, how far can it goes down?

    Binance order matching algo - limit skipped (unfilled)?

    Can you get the time and sales at the time you think you were supposed to be filled? If you see trades below your order price, then there's a problem.

    I've seen block trades of that size. It's not that uncommon. But for a retail trader? No way Jose. A big quantitative trading firm used to trade Complex Orders of that size using a specific schema when the underlying was going ex-div. The ratio of profit vs number of traded option contract was...

    Can price predict it's own future?

    How come so many 'profitable' traders here trade so small position? Do they spend all theirs small profits as soon as they close a profitable position? I mean, if you make money, at one point, your position will increase! Seems that it's not the case as many trade a couple of micros at a...

    Why does Interactive Brokers impose such restrictive limits for options trading?

    Lol....no. There are position limits that would prevent you to do so. And it's not related to IB but to the US Option market.

    Should I sue my real estate agent? or do I have a case.

    Depends on the local rules. Where I live, seller agents cannot disclose other offer prices. It's simply against the law. They just gather all the offers (prices and conditions) and guide the seller. In your case, you made an offer blindly in the same condition as for others who were also blind...

    So you want to be a rock n roll star or a day trader. No Problemo. ymmv

    She has 50M views on her channel (since end of 2018). So that comes out to about 250k$ in total since then. That's not counting her 1870$/year service subscription. So, no, she doesn't need to trade in order to make a living.
