    Bears back finally? Dow futs-200

    There's both long and short bias ETFs, I trade both to hedge. Right re short term instruments, I day trade them as well as short term swings. The neat thing about them is there's opposite directions to be traded, see TNA/TZA SCO/UCO SPXS/SPXL etc I sold roughly half my inverses premkt...

    Does anyone else Test your trading ideas with Small size?

    Dest sez "The problem is that you never show the scale into size. It’s always this absurd piker odd lots" I start very small with odd lots to minimize my stop loss costs for trades that don't work.. I understand your point and agree I should be trading larger size. And I agree it would be...

    Thanks... you kept me out of trouble last week re your reminder to avoid chop, sincere thx. I usually avoid trading Monday chop, this time I'll wait til Tuesday to scale into inverses if they run so I've got more unrealized profit to play with in case headfake. Tip: note last week Wednesday...

    Bears back finally? Dow futs-200

    As we know, futures down now doesn't mean down tomorrow morning, but still... If markets crash next week, how are you going to trade? Good thread to post your thoughts. I'm in several k inverses as usual overnight. I also bought some long bias TNA to hedge, so of course markets will gap...

    Glad to be of help with ideas, your post made my day. The key is scaling out to lock in gains, I'm still in PENN etc too but plan on going cash at first sign of trouble, eg loss of 2day lows in my long positions. Markets are way overbought here imo and may finally sell next week

    Sounds valuable, that's one thing I never learned how to do. Especially useful I'd think for testing position sizing techniques, testing in trending vs choppy markets by sector

    Good idea, if you have discipline to trade sim identically to how you trade live. But you miss the emotions etc with sim vs real, and personally I can't resist sim trading much bigger size eg in IB demo vs live trades. :p

    Right, the main thing to test is trade management strategies, eg scaling, stop size, exit criteria

    So many more are going to perish, it's a shame. I wish the low IQ morons would realize the horrifying reality of what has just begun. Millions worldwide will die within a year. Will someone read up on Spanish flu, this is a RNA morphing worse virus

    Completely correct, I require minimum volume 15k/minute for daytrading and 1m or better for swings. Also key is volatility, trading ranges

    Last Night We Saw Why Americans Own 16+ Million AR-15s

    The AR15 is a decent weapon but not safe for home defense, because rounds can go through walls and strike innocents in next door houses... ask any cop. I prefer my tactical Remington 12ga pump or my glock 40cal or sig226 9mm (used by swat & navy seals). I'm not a gun nut but I'm very well...

    Testing trade setups and trade management strategies is useful. I'm curious, how do you approach live tests in your trades? With free stock and ETF commissions for USA traders now, its the perfect time to test using small size.. I typically test using just 20 or 30 shares at a time, then...

    President Trump's Executive Order on Preventing Online Censorship

    I completely agree with your points, free speech must be protected 110%. I fiercely believe in that. The question I suppose is practical implementation.... what venues are appropriate for various content? Eg look at the extensive YouTube tos updated content guidelines. Politicizing the...
