    What do you think matters most in trading?

    Not be in your 40s or 50s and still figuring this shit out. If you can't do it in your 20s or 30s, just give up. Take some coursera/udemy certifications and make something out of the rest of your short life. The end.

    I never share execution in my journals, just the results.

    If you are a gambling person, there's good likelihood that market will bounce. At least judging by how my equity provide support for the NDX

    “Don’t care money” seems to me to be a useful concept for retail traders learning to trade.

    I think if you have a friend like that, listen to EVERYTHING he has to say. That is a wise friend.

    Index futures automation

    Thanks. QT is free so I just pay the typical AMP comms, CQG routing and CME fees. Honestly, I haven't really manually trade with QT much, so I can't really compare it with SC. When I switched over to QT, I went straight to algo trading. But I'm NOT a programmer so I can't give you any opinion...

    The Impact of Unions

    We should unionize against CME's commission hikes. One more hike and we all strike lol. Maybe we can drop the liquidity by 50%.

    What are the most valuable lessons you have learned?

    What's a vol trader exactly? Volatility or volume based? Am I a vol trader if I only trade at around the open and the only way I can make money is if range expands from volatility?

    Thanks. QT uses c#, just under 700 lines of code. I used MT5 initially with real money. So many issues popped up, from spoofing, lagging, and just plain bugging out that I had to actually trade manually sometimes. I'm so glad I switched over to QT. I had maybe 1 or 2 issues since switching...

    QYLD, RYLD, JEPI, XYLD

    I bought JEPI few months back.. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/jepi-vs-xylg-for-cc-approach.372395/ Currently.. Cost basis increases from the monthly payout. JEPI is actually actively managed vs the globalx etfs where it's pretty much automated. Much lower expense ratio as well...

    Trader-Dale reviews?

    The reality is if you're good at trading you do one of two things: 1. trade for yourself 2. leverage your talent and manage OPM No way in the world someone will teach you a specific edge. What they will teach you is generalities that some people have mentioned already that you can get for FREE...

    Who is the Top Trader at Topstep & similar firms?

    That is a good damn point. Most people probably go through 4-5 rounds of resets. I think I read somewhere people end up spending like 2-3k before giving up completely

    This is why you need bitcoin...

    You know what the irony is, bitcoiners gives bankers the idea of creating their cryptos in the first place. Before that we were just fine with fiat. If bitcoiners would just shut their trap and not go on twitter and whine like biatches, maybe the bankers wouldn't know/care about it...
