    Execution of trades

    And since you are interested in how your trades are being executed, read about order routing as well, it’s a whole new universe. You know… trading is not just reading financial statements, you can upgrade on that and optimize what you are doing in many ways ;).

    What is your favorite timeframe ?

    Whatever the market environment fits. During high volatility, the shorter the time-frame, the better, because sentiment changes faster and you can't have a strong opinion for the long run based on those fast changes. That is based on the traded instrument as well, through experience or...

    Execution of trades

    It should be mentioned somewhere that you are being charged for that by your services provider… Other than that you should be seeing something like this somewhere in the panel from which you are sending your orders. Or like this Simply put, those are the exchanges to which your order is...

    Execution of trades

    I’m not an expert myself, but I think it’s a good obvious evidence that your orders are being handled the right way if you have direct market access, at least on that level of thinking about the topic.

    Catching a falling knife

    It probably is. But then again, your sarcasm might not be that good :D

    Catching a falling knife

    There comes a point where you have to stop looking for validation from others for your trades. You've constructed a market thesis based on vague concepts presented as facts - - 30% is enough for a bear market - is not statistics; - Market makers are losing money, they must buy now - is not...

    Stock News

    I personally haven’t researched more about the RSS, just a while back found something that works for me and stuck with it, look around the businesswire website and you will find what you need. You can google search the trading platform as well, I like it and I get lots of bang for my buck with it.

    Stock News

    Well, personally I’m using a carefully curated twitter feed(I use tweetdeck) and I branch out from that… For my long term trading I read seekingalpha, for my everyday research I use a customized RSS feed with businesswire and I do read zerohedge, although it gets harder to get around the...

    Stock News

    Bro… what are you talking about : )? First, what do you need that information for? Do you want it to be news you can trade on or news for research and preparation or what? Have you made up your mind on that?

    Why the heck is even GOLD going down?!

    Does anyone even count gold as an investment vehicle anymore? I think gold just lost the popularity contest. On the other hand, what are gold prices doing different from riskier growth assets, cryptocurrencies and fixed-income assets, directly affected by rising interest rates? It's a tough time...

    Ha-ha, I was stopped out of my longs, but was worth a try. Risk management is key after all. :)

    SPX call for tomorrow, Wed., Sept 28, 2022

    SPY rallied to 430 on mere hopes and now that BOE has put some logical legs on a bullish movement a corrective wave up to 380-ish is a strong possibility for me. But that's my personal process.

    Celsius gets a little more woke...

    I also watch this guy Coffeezilla, the channel is a good summary of Ponzi schemes, scams and anything surrounding them... also - Celsius are just obscene.

    The Wall of Shame

    My point exactly. Every time I ponder on these things Japan crosses my mind. In my head the phrase is "a dead decade" but it's actually 3 decades before even coming close to a new historical high, ha-ha... One should strive to learn how to spot and take advantage of bull trends in a multi-year...

    Is there an edge in social trading ?

    "Guaranteed", "Double digit" - if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is... What is the highest yield on a dividend paying equity? What is the highest yield on a fixed-income investment grade instrument? What is the highest yield on a junk bond? And the final question you have to ask...

    Putin Announces ‘Partial Mobilization,’ Stepping Up Ukraine War

    Putin doubles down on his worst decision..... In my mind humanity had learned that lesson after WW2. Obviously I've been deceived. All military actions in the past decades all over the globe haven't been outliers, but forerunners of what is to come which is... that by nature we are bound to end...

    Advice on how I should Raise Trading Capital?

    Man, sounds like you want to operate your life on an even thinner margin....... Trading is hard enough and all those financial gymnastics that you mention wouldn't make it easier on your psyche. About your question though - I think a prop firm is worth it if you find one that lets you exploit...

    Mark Minervini...Legit or Not?

    If I may add my two cents - he's just a person after all and all people have a sense of financial self worth. No matter how he presents himself to the world, he may have his own limitations that stand between him and this "billionaire status". Isn't it enough for a person though, to be good at...

    Mark Minervini...Legit or Not?

    Why not make up your own mind about Minervini? Personally, I'm a big fan, although those investing championships could be a hoax - you can have another account that "supports" your trades in your official account and this way you would be paying with your losses and that would be the price of...
