Just to clarify, you are NOT talking about well recognized TA patters (like H&S), but rather your proprietary patterns you've uncovered, right? Back-testing TA patterns (on daily and higher time frame) outside of the context (bull/bear mkt, trend/sideways, volatility, etc) is something I can't...

These are just my thoughts ... have no experience trading ICs(or options in general). You are only setting up IC for 30-50 days, right? So you don't need to guess overall trend, just that there will be no significant movement within that time period. Maybe right after a significant move? To...

Alright, here we go ... let's paper trade this. Not really a falling knife, but will do. Bot 100 AAPL $144.80 Opened Feb 15 spread for $1,110 debit If $149.80 (+5) reached, close spread, put hard stop at BE Else close spread after max of two weeks (~1/19) and decide what to do based on where...

I really didn't even see any attacks. You kind of asked for it saying you don't use stops where in reality you use different kind of stops, no? Unless you found a way to hedge for free?

So what may I ask you do you do with losers ... move the to "long term" portfolio?

I predict @Overnight will go live ... will do better than sim ... Will be pissed about trading sim in 2018 :) Good luck to everyone in 2019! Appreciate you all being here.

@Polygon.io, if it's not a secret, who is your US equities data provider?

I thought the whole idea of IC is it's best used in a non trending environment? Rolling is a defensive adjustment when things go contrary to what was anticipated, no?

As soon as PM becomes popular, move money elsewhere?

That's how people blow up. It's not how much you make but how much risk you took to get there. Happy New and hopefully volatile Year to all!!!

While we are having fun with handles ... I keep thinking of this guy when I see yours, @ironchef :) Looks like a cool dude.

Time 6:47 "I don't understand why would non marketable limit order would be sold to a market maker when it can be posted on exchange."

Ha ha ... Now I have someone on this forum to blame for my addiction :)

I stand corrected ... Confused him with Curtis Faith (whose books councidently got me into trading). Agreed!

Funny, isn't your handle implying reverse of the same strategy? :)

Milk the market? I don't think anyone can. By your logic, retired athletes have nothing useful to share? Covel was the most successful of all the Turtles (if I remember correctly). So you don't think he had something "special" that others lacked? His performance was documented unlike yours or...

What do you mean by this? You want to write a stand alone program that will use your platform API to receive data and send orders? If you don't know coding, definitely #2. For example, I don't think any platform has a way to provide you RSI readings via api. You would need to calculate...
