@Torkers yeah the education is there but you just don't get the emotional rollercoaster. Thanks for the support :) good luck to you as well!

@Scott_PaperTrader_legit thanks you too!

hey there, nice IDXG trade! even at school youre making time for the market. good luck.

@Ebogey thanks man will do

@Deep and right back at you 😁

@karubin1224 Gotta have priorities hahah

It will. Good job tho!

Thanks :)

Strong closers with good news are usually your best bet with overnight longs. Personally I like to see breakouts that can hold like $CYCC today is a very good example. For overnight shorts if you are confident with shorting, first red day on a hot stock seems to work the best right now. Hope this helps. Watch Tim's videos and you will learn a lot about holding overnight and intraday both.

@SJTrades yeah I'm analyzing plays like CYCC and other strong o/n plays and finding similarities so I can be ready for the next time it happens. Thanks for the advice it really helps :)

good job man

@Jason_Raposo appreciate it :)

GD luck!

@Jonk87 thanks Stephen :)

I made $194 since Yesterday... Bough .12 and 245 shares @t 0.85 TP..Yay!!!!

I look the largest % gainers using Interactive Brokers in house screen, same with Sure Trader. I also use finviz. With STT, first thing in the morning I have volume set for 10,000 on stocks priced between $1 and $20 and an 8% move. When the market opens I change the volume parameter to 500,000 and then 1,000,000.

thank you @Turbobob much appreciate it

Thanks Bob

Thanks Bob

Thanks for the advise, It's always welcomed.

@bigman Thats honestly how I felt a couple weeks ago. I thought studying my ass off was bullshit. I mean it's obvious, you can only take in so much knowledge before getting plateaued. But it's about continuously studying and finding what works for YOU. For some, they might catch on quick, and for others it might take a shit ton of studying. Either way, studying is required or you're going to just lose like I did my first couple months trading.

@PassionInvestor That's awesome man. Best of luck to you in the future! We got this.

Yea, studying is the way to go.

@DeeSniper my strategy has been pretty straight forward. Find stocks that are getting the shit kicked out of them, and get a couple lickings in myself.

@DeeSniper In particular I look for beat down stocks to have a morning spike, then I short into the lower high while risking off the high. Check out CLF for the past couple weeks. You'll see what I mean.

HRB was another one I've been watching the last two days. Unfortunately, I didn't get to play because I was out of day trades. You can see how that chart follows this pattern too.

Thanks was curious. I've never shorted. Decided to go long 1 yr before I try shorts. But I'm learning about it.

69% win rate? sounds sketchy. 69. What about 420% win rate?

Deep how many sausages a day do you consume? I usually consume 7.

Gotta love stock market porn right? Tim says to always study, so Im always studying the good stuff *wink wink* right right???

Stop paper trading, that is BS. Use your own $$ and work on your trading skill.
