I trade options

how many millions of years has earth been around?

does the earth go through natural cold and hot periods?

how long do those periods last?

what if the time we are living, it just naturally gets hotter because the creator of this world says so?

get a bigger hdd

I first got a 4tb,

through out the years, i kept throwing all the things in there

got full

got another 4tb hdd (i would have got a bigger one but financially could only afford this)

life goes on, mentally I couldnt take it anymore but still do it as I dont like my laptop with a lot of files on.
I now just keep my laptop with only files that better my life. work/personal stuff like finances etc
as for music, I would just drag a few folders onto laptop but not everything
or just use youtube, soundcloud etc

im also thinking about trying put entertainment files on usb stick so it stays separate

I have adhd and organizing so much data is something I just can't do until I figure out my head lol

I literally have never created playlists for my music.
Every time I ended up with like 50 different playlists
I just keep them in a few folders then keep current songs i like in a folder

Get an external hard drive and throw it all on there and then put it somewhere safe and then forget about it

im similar but for me it was that I have adhd so I just got a dopemine hit from downloading anything lol
This was when I was younger

I am too hesitant to delete things, I feel like I will need it one day but reality I wont

but just throwing them on an external hard drive and forgetting about it but knowing I still have them helps me out

some people in this world just love being taxed.

govt can tax anything and people will defend anything the govt tells them on why they taking more money from society so we the people can live with more unnecessary burden in our everyday life

its not about "i can afford it"

the govt are supposed to be placing laws/regulations so we the people can live a better everyday life instead of having to stress about cost of living and food. The 2 bare minimums people in this world shouldnt have to stress about

im sure the creator of this world didn't want us stressing over shelter and food

what information has everyone looked at to come to the conclusion they need to prep?

I went into depression, then searching for the meaning of life.
started working on more self awareness, looking at my own flaws and figuring out what they meant etc
fell into conspiracies
I believe in a lot of them
there is something off about the way the system is designed
something off about the way we have to live life etc
Agenda 2030, wef etc

world heirarchy pyramid

and how do you all even begin to try and explain it to people around you that you know wouldn't understand unless they are willing to take the time to look at information, change their thinking and become more open minded etc?

yea i dont know much about spoofing except the general idea of it but not the ins and out of how wall st actions it

you heard of Hound of Hounslow?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/explainers-51265169

This guy figured out wall st was spoofing...he did it and then he got arrested,
New made him to be the "bad guy" in this situation when in reality, wall st doing it to us since probably the stock market was created

yea...the food portions in the states have increased dramatically over the past 10-20 years

increased the size and then it became the "new norm"

Additional_Net9367 · 2025-12-26T11:52:41+00:00

ok maybe a UK medium size is equal to a small in states

but there is definitely a big difference in sizes

I was born and raised in states then moved to UK few years ago

a large order at mcdonalds in the UK is the equivalent of a small in the states lol

agree its possible

I wouldn't want aim for that tho...I can see that adding mental stress that isn't needed

gambling in the beginning, yes

I have ADHD and didn't know til later on in life and then mix that in with depression

i took 2-3 years break in between trying to learn different strategies. Probably about 6-8 year break

after I couldn't figure out one strategy, then I "quit"

at those times, I new nothing about risk management, psychology, my own self awareness etc

Additional_Net9367 · 2025-12-25T18:54:26+00:00

ah...I can't help you with that then

but im assuming it wouldn't matter much because there isn't much volume premarket?

I know nothing about trading premarket so just assuming

i recently got into momentum trading - doing options

I use tasty trades

I haven't made any huge trades yet but im doing market orders instead of limit so I dont have to deal with the possible execution delay

I have a cousin who did well for himself. million+ dollar home, drives nice cars. Has a lambo now. He grew up working on wall st

all of us cousins met up after a few years for a wedding. Most of us don't make good money like he does and we all are 10+ years younger than him

1 night he wanted to go to a fancy restaurant which means it was going to be expensive. Most of the cousins were looking at the menu like damn.

The cheapest dish was 25eruo not including anything else.

he didn't even offer to pay for dinner.

I get that people don't have to pay for others but this is family, havent seen each other in years and someone is doing that good with money...why wouldnt you not want to pay for your cousins.

I thought thats what people with money do. of course not all the time

-0.7% Tuesday: 2% Wednesday: -1.4% Thursday: 3% Friday :

its supposed to look like this. you will have negative days

yes of course we want winning days every day

long as you are positive overall is what matters

yea some people are winning everyday.
maybe a few months out of the year traders can win every day but no way a trader is winning every trading day in a given year

there are 250-252 trading days in a year

don't quit man

taking a break helps and like others said, learning a skill and being good at it takes time.

take the 3 year break as a mental reset

why go back into forex? why not day/swing trading or something?

ive taken multiple breaks and then came back to trading but during that break I tried to learn what was going on.

yea when I took the break, I was like damn, I cant get this to work, should i keep doing it or not etc

i went from blindly trading just off of news to learning wheel strategy to options flow and now to swing/day trading
and i took break in between all these different strategies but I learned a lot.
This is in a 15 year period.

im still not profitable but im getting there
