I may look into it again, those range breaks can have really good moves. My RL buddy trades them pretty well along with bull and bear flags for scalping momentum. He’s actually the one who told me to watch Matt Diamond’s content. I always ended up buying tops and selling bottoms. He had a good eye for the stuff, me not so much haha

Another d2 analogy that’s pretty good :lol:

Guess that makes my AMD holding finding a jah & ber in the first few hours of reset haha.


it truly is, make sure to perm those shares too! (realized profit) :rofl:

i love d2 man, so fun to intertwine it with everything in life

what broker do you use? you could honestly be being gimped out on terrible UI. when you're in your trades, do you see your % gained go in the green at any time? or is it always red? in matt diamond's videos, on some of his ORB trades he's 6-8% in profit and it'll go down to -3% in less than 5 seconds on a drop. and then he'll bite the bullet and get out at 10% loss.

maybe you can try using market order for entry, and a 0.20-0.30 cent price above your cost basis as a sell limit order. (or whatever value you think you can scalp from watching them fluctuate on the options chain)

I would get the Tesla roadster if it ever came to be

0-60 1 second

Fuck

He’s often late but delivers more than not


I have the model 3 performance not quite as fast but it's still like driving a freaking jet I would never buy another car besides tesla after owning/driving one I have a truck for pulling the toys though

It’s insane a model 3 can beat comfortable 99% of cars off the line including sports cars

I still own combustion but if roadster comes out in a timely fashion I’ll pop my cherry with that

I use think or swim for charting and fidelity's software for trades. I usually hide PNL during day trades so I focus on the chart and not stare at unrealized profit/loss. I noticed watching this makes me want to make emotional based decisions. I think it was me just having a bad read on the stock. Looking like it's going to orb one or the other jump in and it reverses on me.

I also wasn't to sure how much to risk so I would risk like .50c in premium and shoot for a full pt.

oh fidelity active trader pro. i've heard good things about their fills. saw some youtube vids on it as well and seems just as fast as lightspeed.

yeah i do the same. when i first started i had the profit & loss shown, but now it's all about looking at percentages or decimals..

yah got annihilated on an nvda put. i was going for downside ORB and that OTM put went from 1.82 to 1.09 in like 20 seconds

that's what happens when you're a doomer bear like me. your bias really messes with you. i should have left my biases at the door and simply bought a cheap OTM nvda call and alt-f4'd for an hour

What stocks you guys holding longterm mosty for the dividend return? Ford/STLA/SSRM looking good right now especially ssrm considering they're at a low right now due to recent news but they'll hold steady or recover from here on out (I think ofc) so stock should go up and in meantime 6.61% return. Any other stocks I should be looking at? Ik there's ones with a much higher return but a steady decrease in stock value over time, I'm looking for something that's on trajectory of long term steady growth with 5+% div return lmk if you guys dabble in this sort of thing any and all advice is always appreciated :)
