Ticks..

Didnt trade today as there wasn't much movement. Christmas this week and end of year so im not sure how NG will move. Will post updates this week if there is something notable (hopefully not my account getting blown!) hahaha

Hehe, I figured as much on the tick thing.

I didn't trade today either as the equity action was just froth. But that is Feb NG is back down to 2.21xish. I keep having this nagging feeling that it is too darn low. Maybe the inventory report on Friday will give it a kick in the bum of movement.

Whats up everyone. Hope you all had a nice Holiday. It rained alot where I live, and I had to work 8 hrs on Christmas Day, occasionally getting soaked in the rain whenever I need to go out to throw away the restaurant trash. THIS IS REALITY for all you wannabe traders out there wanting to get rich quick - fail, and it won't be too pleasant.

Not much movement in NG today. -$15 for the day. Hope to finish 2019 with a positive day tomorrow! Cheers!

Whats up everyone! Stockfather here. Last trading day of 2019. Ended green +$146!!! POUND IT

2019 was another consistent trading year that i've always had. Hopefully 2020 will be different and I will actually make money from the markets. Will not be trading tomorrow for New Years but will be back on Thursday for more.

YEA!!!!! and still no youtube videos. Fail.

Happy New Years to you all. May you all succeed in everything and anything you do. You get-goers are the winners out there.
+$25 today. Thought NG was going to do a nice easy bounce to 2.160 level which would get me a nice ~400 profit but it just wouldn't go up. Just exited towards the end of day after having the position in for half the day. 2020 winning streak

A full time day trader is like someone opening a small business to run full time. A small business ALWAYS fails when it is opened without a detailed business plan and is severely under capitalized.

Never understood the need to spend lots of time on detailed business plans for small businesses, time might be better used hustling to make money for that business and learning more about the business while running it.A small business is usually not a complex piece of engineering.

But yeah, being severely under capitalized on top of that is definitely a serious hurdle, although getting into a business where suppliers easily offer credit line can help quite a bit

Made a good profit today. Rode NG up the first half of the market, exited; rode it again the mini bump in the latter half. Calm and steady, no big risks today so very pleased.

New years tip: when writing dates in forms, don't write 1/3/20; make sure you write out the full 2020! Crooks may try something with the dates: 1/3/20(19)
