Lol 🎰


i left lightspeed after seeing 3k in commissions and transaction fees in just over 3 months. i tried to limit down to just a few option trades a day too, but i never realized how quickly they add up. just insane. could have bought fg LOL

i swear their software is so good and the fast exec times are bcz they want to buy/sell more solely to get fee %s lol. shit was addicting and super fun but holy hell it raked my wallet. the trade times were so damn fast it's almost impossible not to make $ if doing limit/market orders by a few cents, but even if you do make $, the fees annihilate you anyway

i was crafting up a little fun TSLA day trading project since i'm super bored. it would be with a commission free broker and a non-pdt account. 21 shares per trade ($5k), and just do several .40.-60 cent scalps (roughly $10 @ 21 shares)

profit target would be really low, like $40-50 a day, and stop. if on lightspeed, this wouldn't be possible because of minimum share fees. keep risk low, and profit target low (as they are tied hand in hand)

it seems silly, but the true power of this would come from staying disciplined and doing it every single day for a few months and no other perfect time to start than the new year. might start next week and cook up a google sheet to track profit/losses

edit: it would really scratch my trading itch too. also make me stay the fck away from options :rofl:
