All is well, market shift interesting...watching closely for openings, not many and missed some! Learning everyday for the slow grind forward...

@asfricksrs what plays would you say you are most comfortable with?

I watch for morning panics, for db on previous runners. Tried swing for gap ups - not working too good with this trend in the market. Always watching for Vwap hug break late day...few past two weeks. Any CVC plays - am long biased with small accounts - have never shorted but it could change soon. Total of 13 trades thus far - shy trigger finger! Always waiting for the best setup before I risk giving to others.

I hear ya, it's good to be cautious

Congrats on that milestone Chopper! That was PaulDelgado that moved over the mark in chat. I like the serenity you exhibit about your trades now. FOMO was such a huge issue for me at the start also - now, as you said we wait for the next bus! Thank you my friend for always sharing your wisdom.

Yes It was PaulDelgado, great for him. I love when I see people successful. And thank you again for your kind words. How are you doing with your trading bro? hope all is going well.

Congrats on success bud!

Thanks Man

I just can't believe how things have played out but I'm here for the long haul.

we can actively hit the button to trade or keep our mindset ready for when we can - reason i study for that moment in the long haul! currently watching checklist again - valuable tool yielding more this time.

I know these patterns so well now that it will have to pay off eventually

@TimeFliesBuy IF you have free time between 3pm and 4pm, check out https://djellala.net for his swing trading strategy. No news, no indicators, no analysts opinions, just PRICE only. You scan for rising stocks using finviz.com and buy the bests according to his criterias before 4pm. You check daily before the close and let your winners run and cut short your losers. Yo u are basically looking for trends that can last for days,weeks, or months.

Mentor? Naw, I'm more of a guide really

But again thanks, @hacktheticker and now that I'm working days I have no time to really trade so my profit chart is going nowhere. I'll have to save up my vacation time to trade lol, I leave before premarket starts and get back during after-hours.

@TimeFliesBuy Why don't you swing trade then. You can make more $ with less time investment with Swing trading. Check out a great swing trading strategy from https://djellala.net/

Make stocks great again!

Yeah and i noticed you just leave a dot for your trades....why?

@TimeFliesBuy I have a personal spreadsheet where I detail why I make all my trades, I just didn't feel like copying and pasting all my notes

OK well as long as you have something!

don't try to compare yourself to million dollar traders. just remember the mediam salry in the US is under $50K per year. save ip enough money and shoot for $10k per month to get started. you have a great life that way and if you get to $200k, $500 k all the better. good luck.

Welcome back bud!

Welcome!!

Thank you for the welcoming. your stats are very impressive and I am hoping that I will learn from your future trades thank you.

I hope so as well, after having a rough life of my own, I love seeing people succeed!

Thank you!

ditto my friend, the job keeps the dream alive - missed your comments and trades

Damn that is some patience to hold through a unrealized P&L. Doesn't your broker have T+2 for borrows?

Excellent job Tim that’s the way to do it 2 trades for 30,000 in a month awesome

wow, how could you manage your potential loss when JBCT was at $13 in January? Have you considered that the broker could have asked you to close your position? Thanks!

Well done Tim... Thank you for sharing it.

Or maybe I've just been staring at charts for way too long!

but heres a secret about my background, I worked on the programming for weapons to lock on to moving targets and instead of a missile just firing and going straight to the target I had to make it lock on to areas around the targetwhile it got closer so the plane wouldn't recognize it was being locked onto until it was too late so I created patternson the way to the target, and now I do the same thing with algo's........

but im not this good lol
