    How to develop decisiveness and quick reaction time?

    We offer Hot Keys and Hot buttons but I would not say faster is always better. Know what you are looking for and be confident. Be prepared. Sometime a little lag to double check is OK. Bob

    To be 100% honest, for spreads that are not complex, you should be able to visualize that without help, or you are not ready to trade option spreads. As part of your learning process, i'd say it is fine. We have it built into Lightspeed Trader.

    Risk on a trade based on current PnL or quality of setup?

    If you were a blackjack player that counted cards, and the count was in your favor, and you were up money, would you drop your betting size?

    Risk on a trade based on current PnL or quality of setup?

    I like the idea of rating each trade before you enter them based on some expectancy. For many it will be very subjective, rating 1-10 with 1 being ignore it and 10, max allocation. If you keep very good records overtime, you can have ratings based on what did happen, and hopefully increase your...

    Incorporating as a personal day trader

    It is not a loophole. You or anyone can start an LLC. Register with your state, get an EIN from the IRS. Create an operating agreement. Single member LLCs are considered the same to the IRS and a sole prop. You should contact an accountant or Green Trader Tax to determine if for your situation...

    WHAT IF the S&P increases over the next decade

    I'd wish you luck, but I would not mean it. I don't benefit from a recession. I have reduced risk since August. That is enough for me.

    After the 1st leg up do you sell or hold?

    I find it easy to keep this discipline as I know it is a numbers game. I have little regrets from missed "home runs." I just move on from the good and bad ones and try not to repeat mistakes more than 100 times!

    After the 1st leg up do you sell or hold?

    I like to evaluate each trade at the time you are looking to exit. If you had no position, would you put one on at that point? If the response is no, I would exit. If the answer is yes, I would consider adding. If you don't want to add because of risk or lack of excess margin, just hold or place...

    nbbo vs. arca

    Speed Required (Dark Pools can have a delay) Cost Time of day(Open/Close should only go to primary-Post and premarket-no smart or dark) If you balance your cost of trading, will that extra action cause you to miss trades? If yes, might be work a default for all trades even if there is a higher cost.

    A 2-3% Correction Could Wipe Out Most VIX Short Sellers

    Two things are not clear to me here (Maybe because I just woke up :D): What does the actual portfolio look like? When do you enter and exit? Are the results from real trading? What do you do if the VIX were to spike 25%, 50%, 100%? How would the account owner deal with margin requirements...
