I know you can make a lot of money doing it, but you can also get your face ripped off. I see some of these youtubers making 50k a day on small caps. I don't know why people don't start trading the index funds first. I'd start with the SPY and the QQQ.

I found that out the hard way last Summer. Best to paper trade than do it with real money for sure. I remember when I first started trading high volatility low cap names, I made 40k in an hour. I was in such a daze, I didn't realize it sold off until hours later. I won't touch names under...

I never have a problem during the day, but I'm not in super volatile names. If you are in the small cap and spec names, that's where you can get destroyed.

There is no guarantee your price will be filled, especially on a hard open. If you want to protect yourself, don't hold overnight.

Goldman Sachs downgraded the sector, but that is near term. Mid to long term, they say the sector is good. First issue was business travel. We know that already. Second is fuel. Remains to be seen what gas prices do. Covid counts are down by half in the last month, so I guess I'm a...

mr stark I don't feel so good

Closing a short position in the premarket. Reopened my short on FB, after the whistleblower told Congress to look for the secret files on kids and gave them the label. Not good for business. It's better to be short than long right now.

Anyone take that NFLX trade I mentioned at 575? I wish I took more of it. I'm actually getting a little nauseas that I didn't buy more. 10% profit in a few weeks. I'm feeling quite distressed right now.

Yup, I switched from the QQQs, where I was making money, to this. I made instant money on FB and then they started buying it up as they said Zuck knew he was killing kids, but wouldn't give up a hundredth of a percent of engagement. Closed the short for a loss of 370. 110 gain on the QQQ...

My short isn't going very well. Somehow, this is positive news. She just said FB knows its promoting hate and suicidal thoughts, but will not let up the slightest lowering of engagements to do it, even hundredths of a percent.

Sad thing is, I knew a nurse in a hospital that told me that Pfizer and BNTX were doing well. It was super volatile then, and I cut my position. In general, I don't touch experimental drugs any more...too binary.

Opened up a short position on FB, during the Capitol Hill meeting. We'll see how it goes. I need her to say they are mass murdering teenagers to make some bank.

Anyone ever had a price show on their dashboard that never happened? It's weird. JETS is showing I bought at 25.2, and I haven't bought it in the 25s yet. Doesn't show in my history, just in my dashboard.

Suicide ideation, but you know what the media is running with.

Shorts are feasting, it's just too easy to make money shorting right now. "Citadel’s multistrategy flagship fund Wellington gained 7.8% in September, bringing its year-to-date performance to 18.5%, according to a person familiar with the returns."...

Goldman Sachs says airline stocks will plummet if gas stays this high. So be wary. I may not be playing JETS as much as I have.

I sold my Facebook stock today...their own research shows they cause up to 5% of hate and 6% of suicide in teenage girls? Yuck. That's not good for business, or my portfolio. Been a long time shareholder, but I'm out...

So NASDAQ is in correction territory, yes? Still not there on the S&P.

That's what she said

Jeez BABA. Will they take it down to 100?

I've been eyeing Apple too

welp, out of Facebook after being on it long term. This may be the one time they don't duck the government.

Irrational, especially since MA benefits so much from covid being lower and the Merck news.

A good day to be short.

I'm not buying anything not travel and leisure oriented right now. Screw tech.

And if I held my short another hour or so, it would have been another 1k on MRNA. That's fine, they are so irrational on that stock that it could've gone the other way. You never go broke taking a profit.

Closed my overnight shorts of ZM and MRNA, made 34 and 423 respectively. I sold my NVDA at 220.

Just now, closed my overnight shorts of ZM and MRNA, made 39 and 373 respectively. 412 profit. I opened a position end of the day on Friday in MRNA that lost 50. Closed the positions in the premarket, not wanting to hold them going into the open. MRNA has been overpriced, but that doesn't...

Let a guy go this week, even in the face of this labor market. He got into two car accidents, almost let a log roll onto himself (breaking both legs), and almost had a few near death accidents. You can't stand underneath a tree and let a log come near your head. He's standing underneath trees...

Trade ideas for the week? I'll be playing JETS. Any sort of dip, I'll hop back on. I am going to short ZM and MRNA (for small periods of time, not overnight). So more of the pairs trade I did end of last week. Looking to grab AMZN under 3,200. I keep missing it. Swing trading MA, NCLH and...

I'm open to anyone that is killing it right now. I'll look him up. The traders I've watched are ClayTrader, Warrior Trading and Humbled Trader.

I'm def open to people you think I should be watching. I feel like I should be mailing you some money with those book suggestions. You def made me a few percent this last month.

Yeah, I def don't have patience for any sort of trolling any more. We shall not speak again. Take your ass onto screenshots, we are MAKING money here.

Whenever you are negative to someone else's success, you hurt your own success. Karma is a thing. You will never be more than mediocre at anything. I hope that everyone one in this thread is prospering. I hope everyone I come into contact with does better. Wealthy people get wealthier by...

Is it that bad over there? I'm purposefully ignoring it, even though I have a little bitcoin.

Stop being so negative. Nobody is sitting here clutching their pearls hoping for the best. My account represents 1/30 of my net worth, and I don't trade it all. If you are waiting for an account implosion, you'll be waiting a long time motherfucker. My trading rules don't allow for me to...

I didn't learn TA from him. I learned mentality. 1- Less is better. I frequently have made 1% in my first 15 minutes of trading, then I give it back in the next hour. Make your money and get out. 2- Dealing with loss and how to get back on track 3- A few hundred in an hour is enough...

This is what I want... When you see some of the massive gains that guys like warrior trading posts every day, I'm more along the lines of Clay. You see guys like warrior trading posting $60,000 profit days. Not my cup. I can get by on 500 a day...and the goal is for later, and not now.

Claytrader on youtube helped me out in the beginning a lot. I don't agree with everything he does, but with all successful traders, you take a piece of what they say and tailor it to yourself. And this is how I day trade, pretty much.

Except the casino is rigged in its favor, and most of the time in the market, you are the one hurting yourself. Those books that Jysin recommended on trader mentality, they are beyond awesome.
