The Tao of Minimalistic Trading: $300 Daily Profit

[dartmus]

pls explain? you saying 54 from here?

we take out 50, we take out 60

I did a quick in my head of your basis for 4 positions and it's $54.375. I believe there's value in understanding there's a lot of bulls under estimating their basis and that will have to unwind before bears will relent. It's not an edge, but it helps to grasp psychology. It adds a little signal strength.

Less work today (not flipping positions around) and making more points. Seems the way to go for the future. (nice thread)

on a day like today, it works.

on a narrow day, which are most days you'll get killed.

I'm looking at the chart from my phone, so not exactly a good view but looks like a H&S on the 5min setting up potentially. Somebody might want to verify that from a chart bigger than 2" lol.

I've gotten in an out 3 times. Flat right now. Up 1pt basically
