    Techniques for Day Trading the ES, NQ, YM, MES, MNQ, and MYM

    I use limit orders exclusively, but my trade manager is coded to place the order +/- 1 tick from current price to allow a little wiggle room.

    Volatility vs Risk

    If you have the funds it would take for SPY, and you are using money you don't need to pay the bills, and don't mind your money being tied up for a potentially long period of time should you end up fully invested, I see nothing wrong with the way @wxytrader approaches this. SPY will always...

    Why so many angry people using &%$*^&^, **** words in ET forum?

    Like it or not, this place is a reflection of the real world -- did you really come in here in an attempt to escape reality? And if you're looking for a place that will protect your delicate social sensibilities, you need to move to the "other" forum where you will be coddled and wrapped in a...

    I hear you. Before I got on Ambien, I suffered with severe, chronic sleep deprivation for many, many years. It was a nightmare trying to get through the day after only two or three hours of sleep, and then slept damn near the entire weekend trying to catch up. It was a vicious roller coaster I...

    Sleeping issue with day trading, Should I continue?

    Back in late-2006, I started taking Ambien and was on it for 3 1/2 years. That stuff will knock you out quick. Then I moved and couldn't get it anymore. I really don't think it's addictive; however, after three years, I noticed I started to forget things. It was very noticeable, so I wasn't too...

    @Quanto Hey @Moderator, this @Quanto idiot who has no clue of what he really is talking about is violating the forums rules, the Terms of Use, by unfairly publicly insulting other members by recently calling @taowave a POS in front of the whole forum! Such an asocial user such as @Quanto -- who...

    Learn To Take Losses

    Better yet, don't eat anything that comes out of the water -- fresh or salt -- because it's all polluted. And now they're finding microplastics embedded in the walls of blood vessels. :(

    Learn To Take Losses

    All sounds good. Well, except for "super brushing" your teeth -- bad for your gums! :sneaky: And I follow the boring-ass keto diet, but it works. :)

    Learn To Take Losses

    1. Go to the bank and withdraw a few hundred dollars in small bills 2. Walk outside, throw it up in the air, and watch the wind blow it all away When you can do that, and not get sick at your stomach, you've got the losing part down. :D

    Jumped over to the Lenovo workstation world RIP Dell

    Absolutely agree. I built my Win-10 Pro system back in April/2016 using all high quality components at a cost just shy of $3k. Originally built it to edit videos using Adobe's suite of products. I don't edit videos anymore, just use it for trading. Next month will be eight years and it's still...
