Yes we are lone wolfs unless you are in a trading room with other traders we trade in solitary

Yes, trading from home is an isolated profession where emotions of being alone play a major part. But this doesn't mean you are alone. You can see through chat rooms that there are many traders who sailing in the same boat.

With ECYT you bought the first green candle to make a new high but not the true breakout. Or just buy when its proven to hold support not when it reached it.

@IceMan14 it wasn't the true breakout but 10.30 was still a resistance break pm. It was still a 2.5:1 r/r but I wanted more. The true breakout was 10.40 which should've the first breakout at the open not 10.20 which was too much of a drop.

@IceMan14 Hi man. They v'been charging me around £24 commissions (2tickets/£12each)thats like $30 both ways +the fills are pretty slow, but hey they maybe changed (i doubt, unless they experiment with options now). also the software was pretty expensive then. now been with suretrader for some time and they even lowered my commission to $3.80 2tickets 1.90 each way, so I'm literally not going back to TD-UK now

Sorry, I was away last week. But too thin for me to trade

I generally find shorts by just looking at a lot of charts.... Also stocks making new lows.

This is hugely helpful, I was using USAA up until I realized the same thing. I was getting shellacked!

So how do I trade with an ECN, any websites and do they accept UK customers?

@IceMan14 I'm sorry, I guess I should've been clearer. When you trade on Nasdaq for example, the exchange is essentially an ECN. So when you trade through it ECN fees apply + your broker fees. I hope this clarifies things a bit!

Yes, they announced a $40 million financing in the low $8.00 range. So the market will have to digest that before heading higher.

Sometimes the calculation down by the different websites are not the same. It is frustrating sometimes for sure. I would go with the 6 days.

Hello Bob, when you talk about what industries are up and down where do you get this data from?

Turbobob
Turbobob Jan 31, 18 9:31 AM

@Kody Yes just get the $150 one. DAS actually has a decent scanner for listed stocks too. It doesn’t catch them all but it does a decent job.

finviz pro and thinkorswim. STT is not for everyone even though on here there is propaganda everywhere for STT.
