    I'm not going beyond 9 contracts on MNQ. Once I hit the next level, I'll just trade 1 NQ. Thanks for the offer, but I have the bot running jsut fine for now. I'll keep you in mind if I need anything. I'm currently taking udemy course on mql5.

    Who are some LEGIT Retails that "made it"?

    I dont think anybody would make a +40min video just to troll someone. The guy had audio recordings and screenshots of all the communications/charts to prove his points. COme on maaan (Biden's voice) I think the theme for a lot of of these trainers is that they teach you patterns that work...

    I am changing gears and going to focus on MQL5/C/C++ programming since I have a functional bot with it. Then move to Python for data visualization and statistical analysis.

    Price TA... Trade What You See!

    Just for the record, I believe TA is mostly bullshit. I have another thread showing price action can be randomized and people would still justify TA on that made up price action! But, I'm always upfront about trading. It's hard as shit! It's NOT simple. I tell people it's better to just quit...

    Price TA... Trade What You See!

    Just saying, when someone put up multiple threads praising TA, talking about all you need to do is just follow the price ; why even bother asking "WHY something moved"? Just follow the damn price right? and draw up trendlines, s/r, etc. Unless of course TA is 50/50. In that case, how about we...

    Price TA... Trade What You See!

    I feel like these two threads contradict each other. On one hand it's "TA! KISS BABY!" https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/price-ta-trade-what-you-see.376447/ And in the same breath "But wait...why did price move like that?"...

    Yesterday was "interesting". But it still works as intended. Actually I was able to witness different ways the positions were executed last couple of weeks and I'm glad that the algo didn't fail.

    Just been running one algo on MT5. Used Quantower for a while and issues started coming up and so i'm back on MT5, until I can figure out how to recode it. You use NT8? how's the platform for auto trading?

    Follow the money man, don't dwell on a market just because you like it. If NQ shows it's profitable, go with that.

    Why are options so expensive compared to home insurance?

    Where I live, insurance premium on $500k home would be about $4000. Lets say I just buy shortest expiration on AAPL for Oct6, which is $113. x 4 (4 different purchaes s i need to cover the month? assuming all are equal) = about $500 premium. So it's cheaper for to insure your shares than your...

    Why are options so expensive compared to home insurance?

    Yea, I don't understand the calculation either. If I had 500k shares in AAPL, that would mean 86.5 mil in value. But let's keep it simple. 100 shares of AAPL is about $17100 I want to insure any downside, so I would buy ATM put right? Which is currently $13.83 or $1383 premium So that...
