    What are the most common used oscillators and their settings for day trading?

    there's no one answer that fits everything. most people will tell you to find a setting that works well with the instrument/time frame you're trading. Other people will say "indicators are worthless; learn price action."

    most consistent oscillator

    CCI just shows you how far away price is from a simple moving average. I never saw how this was useful for trading. What's that? I loaded it on my chart and got nothing. Then I loaded something called McClellan Summation Index and got like a super slow MA looking thing. Where do I...

    Hi, explain to me how adding to a WINNING position is profitable?

    that makes sense. I've never actually averaged up. I just always read about it. I tried it today in a demo account and realized that it was messing with my stops.

    Hi, explain to me how adding to a WINNING position is profitable?

    Hi, explain to me how adding to a WINNING position is profitable?

    Honestly, averaging into losers a preset number of times seems way more profitable to me. A PRESET NUMBER OF TIMES. Not martingaling until you blow your account. Averaging down gives you MORE wiggle room. In fact, averaging down lets you profit from "noise" in that wiggle room...

    Hi, explain to me how adding to a WINNING position is profitable?

    I know everyone is all "don't martingale, it's bad, booo, only losers average losers, etc." htf do you average INTO a winner? It kills your trailing stops. Go long at 100. Price is now 105. You are winning! You think this trend is going to run long so you buy another @ 105! Now...

    What happens if you're short a stock and it goes to zero?
