Looks like MTTR bottomed out at $10.93 in the early trading.
NFLX cracked $400 before climbing back above it.
NVDA bottomed at $235 (the 200 DMA is $220)
AAPL bottomed at $162
MSFT at $301
TSLA at $982
QQQ $357
SPY at $443 (just a hair above the 200 DMA)
AMZN at $2998
Many of these bottoms are hitting support at the intermediate support lines. These really need to hold.

I wonder how funky it has to get before a lot of people start adjusting their contributions / fund allocations.
I thought about it the past few weeks, didnt want to time it etc. Chances are I would have jumped out, missed the last days of gains, then gone back in just in time for the drop.
There any data about 401k / TSP contributions during 2000-2010?

Something to note if you are pushing money in these days and you own both individual stocks and ETFs is to watch your portfolio weights with the changes. My adding heavy to FTEC the last two days has pumped up my stakes in AAPL and MSFT to levels I don't want to exceed. Always be aware of your weighting so one or two single stocks cant fuck your portfolio if they crash.
Here are my weightings as of this morning and adding the MTTR shares I will get assigned this weekend. I use data like this to give me a good visual of where my money is spread out and where I want to add/subtract. You can set this up in Excel and it will auto-adjust as you make changes. I also want to stress again an index ETF should really be the core holding in your portfolio. You have to have the diversity it provides.

Are most of you guys using the charting tools provided by your broker? I skipped a lot of that discussion because it seemed like you all usually talk about whether or not it will perform certain trades in certain ways, which is beyond what I need.
Asking because I do need to become more familiar with charts etc, mainly creating and monitoring them, might get trading (or similar program) for a year to learn with. Not sure what level of functionality is excessive, or if there is a stand out product to be recommended.

Who do you use as a broker? If Fidelity or TD they have very nice charting systems built in. Otherwise, free sites like Yahoo Finance and Marketwatch give you charting tools (usuallu under the "advanced charting" tab.
If Fidelity download Active Trader Pro.
If TD download Think or Swim.

You dont have to use the trading platform for charting you use to execute trades with. Most are free.
Really all you need is to figure out how to setup moving averages and how to setup how many days for each average.
For Webull its as simple as clicking the Indicator button on top of any chart.
Clicking Edit allows you to select what you see in the hotbar and any settings you wish to see for those indicators.

Just make TD Ameritrade account and buy 1 stock on it. Then you get full access to their platform.

I got approved for options trading yesterday.
Doing puts and potentially getting assigned shit I actually want at rock bottom prices as a worst case scenario seems like the way to live.
Options would've given me something to do in the downturn where I otherwise had zero...options.
