    Mark Minervini like trades

    Let me comment on this because I'm actually in the competition first time this year. I'm not going to take away Minervini's skill during the times that he won (2x). He 's basically a momentum trader that leverages on trends. But this post on his X makes me question him too: Even with the...

    Took all the live trades I've made (on QT and MT5) since 2/20/23 and removed positive outliers (algo malfunction). Did some basic stats: Not sure if this is the right risk of ruin.

    Micro Natural Gas Futures and Options on their way!

    OMG I can't believe this fallacy still exists in trading!

    Dude, here are the main points of the article: 1. stocks go down, so what do you do? sell or hold? 2. it goes over simple math of percentage recovery needed when stocks drop at different amount (simple math) 3. it even confirms the fact that stocks do recover: "This isn't to say that rebounds...
