I am only interested in trends. Think about it. Trading like gambling is a game of percentages. If the odds favor you (positive expectation), you have a trading edge and will make monies. Where to enter? You have your choice of pullbacks, breakouts, support or resistance, etc. If you have a...

I trade those too, buying calls and puts. The options give it an added boost in returns. DBC call options, I got 155.76% return in 10 days holding the past month. That is on the 2% of capital I risked on that trade. Take note, the big winners does not happen as often as the the smaller returns...

Stop trading forex then. Move to stock options. Leverage maybe, 3/1-5/1 which is pretty good. If you earn 50% in one month, that is 600% annualized. Of course, you have to be buying calls and puts. Selling premium, you will make much, much less. Also, can you accept win rates of 30-40%? Risk...

You are really that stupid if you think Brandon is any good at all? Wide open borders, war on US oil companies, China first policies, globalization, US economy in huge shambles. This idiot doesn't have a clue at all. His sanction cutting off Russian oil only raised fuel prices and inflation...

It is not the filthy rich billionaires who should fear the fascism because they are part of the elite clique that decides what happens to the rest of us. Oh, it is the average Americans too dumb to see fascism happening right before their very eyes and giving the government a high five for...

The same thing is happening in the US as well to be fair. Only difference is we have the 2nd amendment and Americans have a lot of guns. That sort of tempers some of the extreme liberals but, it will not stop them. Look, they pitted the vaccinated Americans versus unvaccinated Americans who they...

Confiscating assets is the tool of a fascist government. Just look at Canada and Justin Trudeau. You have Canadians egging on Justin Trudeau as he froze the bank accounts of Canadian truckers who were just protesting. These extreme liberal idiots forget how Hitler, took all the properties of the...

If the Russians intent was to weaponize those nuclear reactors, they would have done so already. And here is the dumb thing. Once, radiation is released in high doses and you have intense radiation, wouldn't it kill all the Russian troops in its vicinity? Extreme liberal media pushing this...

Strange trading day today. What changed? Oil supplies did not increase overnight, Russian oil to US barred, Putin barred exports of commodities to some countries yet, the stockmarket rallied and oil prices suddenly, tanked? Some attribute it to possible peace talks but, top Ukraine official...

Blinken and NATO idiots first said it was okay for Poland to give the fighter jets to Ukraine. So, Ukraine pilots fly those jets from Poland airspace to Ukrainian airspace and now, that is an act of war. You think Russia will just tolerate it? Chances are good Russia fires a hypersonic missile...

Russia already fired a hypersonic missile in their nuclear drill with Belarus before the invasion. Fox News even showed a video of it. A retired US general said, on Fox that the US is behind both Russia and China in hypersonic missile technology. If there is an escalation with threats from NATO...

High volatility is where the monies are. I am looking to exit by then.

The green energy special interests got Biden by the balls. They will make billions from the subsidies Joe Biden and Democrats will give them. He will do squat as US consumers pay for higher gas, higher food prices and higher taxes on top of it. Practically, everything will go up in price and by...

In other news, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates leaders will not even take a telephone call from Joe Biden. Apparently, it has something to do with arms contracts they had with the US that Joe Biden froze. Hilarious.

I want high volatility when I am already in a trade position. Not before. Why would anyone want to pay high prices? Low volatility is where you get better price fills and able to enter trades at fair prices.

Russia has finally, banned exports to hostile countries of its commodities. This is a huge plus for commodities as Russia and Ukraine produce a lot of the commodities consumed by the US and Europe to manufacture a lot of things...

I am also, guessing you ignored risk management and traded a larger size, instead of limiting that trade to 2% risk? Had you limited yourself to 2% risk per trade, losing this trade would not have had a huge impact on your capital. There is another guy in another thread who traded in too high a...

Profits are not guaranteed in the stockmarket. When you place a trade, there is no guarantee that trade will work out. That is why you have stop losses (hard stops or mental stops) to exit your trade and minimize your losses if you are wrong. Limiting your losses to 2% per trade is a step in the...

The obvious lesson here is you bought a Russian equity fund just because it has fallen so much? Trends do matter and cheap stocks, cheap funds can only go lower. That alone could have saved you from making the mistake. You want stock and funds trending higher, setting new 52 week highs. Why...

If you are trading against the trend, you are getting the worst of it. The big boys (hedge funds, mutual funds, banks, brokers) dictate the trend. Like running towards a tsunami. You will get wiped out. Common sense dictates, you align your trades with the major trend. That way, you are trading...
