Feel retarded but can't figure out how to show 100 and 200 DMA on Fidelity. I would LIKE to convert my standard account back to mostly all indexes and would like to set some buys at close to 200 in IVV or something.
Anyone know how to add that on tradingview, without messing up existing mods?

$640 on BABA in 80 minutes' trading. This was actually a tough day for me, at one point, I was down 1k. Even though the signals said short, if the stock got anywhere near support, I lost $500. Stock was pretty volatile with all the signal changes.

One thing that helped me out this weekend was reading "Trading in the Zone." There is a part in there where the traders ask why they didn't go in the reverse direction, in the face of confirmation. And the answer was that they had become so negative, that the option wasn't even there. Going reverse was not an option you even looked at. The book says this is what novice traders do. When I look at my blow up days, this is what I did. So today, when faced with a blow up day, I just went with confirmation and won out. Even if I had to change from long to short 4 or 5 times. All the while, you are experiencing emotional pain that blocks your flow. I become a sith lord pretty fast on a losing stretch, and then that ruins my day.

Humbling to be told that after eleven months of doing this, I'm still a novice. Book is worth its weight in gold.

Theyre being played with. Back down 1.5%.

When yields stop rising. But the Fed has already said theyre raising rates 3 times this year so.......
But you have some funds on CNBC just now calling for six rate hikes. Seems like the bears have taken over the narrative. J Powell needs to clarify.

Its always funny to see the hedge funds come out on CNBC. 75% of what they say is misdirect.

Altimeter Capital is calling for tech to drop another 10-15%. When does the selling stop?
Their crystal ball is likely the same guesswork as Mr. "everything rally" on CNBC you were posting on here the last 2 months.

Put in a full order of the NDAQ at 186.11
Just so we are all on the same page, you do know that NDAQ is not the Nasdaq 100 index, right? NDAQ is the actual NASDAQ company that owns the exchange.
