Trump just destroyed any hope of a trade deal. Bears, get ready.

[Overnight]

Lol, you are the only buffoon here. Relax and take a deep breath. Enjoy your weekend. Nothing is gonna crash on Monday. Next time, if you can't take the heat then don't hold positions over the weekend. Or perhaps posting less might help you focus more on your trading. Your misread of this news is almost epic.

Will you trade that news? You are going to long that news? If so, you are as epically failed as my misstep on going long the night before Boeing and CAT posted terrible earnings and took the entire YM for a ride south.

Prove that you have faith that the bull market is in tact, by showing us your REAL MONEY TRADES. If I missed those posts of yours, I apologize in advance.

Why the YM of all things? Look at today. S&P up 0.75%, QQQ up over 1%, small-caps up strong, Dow only up 0.19%. The Dow isn't where things are moving...it's almost like Consumer Staples or something.

I mentioned why in my journal. It was all because of the DOJ probe news that scared me away. My bad

Yep.

Rule 1: Don't get emotional
Rule 2: Don't let your politics interfere with your trading (coming from someone who couldn't stand Obama)
Rule 3: There's no such thing as the Fight Club (maybe that's from the wrong list...)

I couldn't stand Obama either, but that didn't stop me from going all in all these years, because Obama was mostly a do-nothing.

I have posted many times, Trump Derangement Syndrome is very bad for trading:

- it gets the trader disconnected from reality, buying into the fake media bashing that some how a guy successful in biz/entertainment/politics is a mentally unstable idiot; a disconnected trader will inevitably have psychological issues in the market.

- secondly this trader would believe that Trump will f up the economy bad and hence have a wrong bias... this market is clearly going to DOW 40000 and if the bias is wrong, no short-term in and out acrobat is gonna save you.

Are you SURE about that? Do you have a plan in place in case of a black swan? I don't. Whoops.

Next time, if you can't take the heat then don't hold positions over the weekend...

I've taken a lot more heat than "a weekend." See my journal thread for details.

...Your misread of this news is almost epic.

Are you SURE about that? Last time Trump pulled something like this, the NQ pulled back 10%

I lost a lot of money on that pullback, because it looked like a repeat of Oct 2018. It turned out to be a repeat of Feb 2018, mostly.

What makes you so damned sure that this next pullback will not be a 10%, 30% or more pullbacker? Just a feeling? Or do you have stone cold fundamental data to back it up? If so, what was your data telling you in September 2018?

Nobody in the world understands why Q4 2018 happened, and why it recovered so quickly in Q1 2019. If they did, they'd be able to tell us when it will happen again.

You are groot, because that is kinda' what your nick looks like it sounds like.

Trade real money and get back to us, before you come down on ME the way you did. Un-Fing believable.

(BTW. The "heart-warming" thing I did with Vanz is something only people who trade REAL money know about. I can feel good about his insight and believe him, or I can shrug it off and take a big loss. It is up to me to decide. You are not in that club it seems.)

Actually, I give all the credit to the Fed keeping rates at zero for 7 years plus multiple rounds of QE. Obama threw a little stimulus in as well, but it was basically all Fed. My dog could be in the Oval Office and we'd still have double digit returns with a Fed that accommodating.

Day traders simply like President Trump.

He moves the market massively and provides tons of opportunities for traders.
His twitts are great.

It wasn't at zero, it was at 0.25%. They were getting their little piece of the pie through it all, hehe

dude slow down lol... I have just explained why Oct2018 happened... now these things start with a secret meeting among my pro boys, so we have no way of knowing when it would happen... but at the time my indicator was 50/50 long short... at the moment it's 27/73... my pro boys know this stuff, so they won't pull another one right now

we have no way of knowing when it would happen, but now that it's in the rear view mirror, it is still speaking very loudly, what the purpose was.

My responses were to Grulstrmnn thing. You want to get involved in the middle of my spat with him, that is fine.

I did not ask you why Oct 2018 happened, I asked Groot. But since you have offered an explanation, what is it? A secret meeting with your pro boys. Oh. *sniffs*

That is fascinating. Great help, thumbs up for effort!

Here, have a middle-of-summer vid as a thank you. It's hot here, man.

It was actually between 0% and 0.25%, whatever the heck that is (0.125%)?
