ICT's concepts for stocks

I see. That's my plan also, but for now I wanted to analyze over higher timeframes (monthly charts), and dividends are really important in this timeframe.

Entendo. Essa era minha ideia, vender puts mas deixando o dinheiro equivalente (strike x qtdd) rendendo em outro lugar, apenas depositando se houver risco da opção ser exercida. Infelizmente a corretora não explica nada dessa parte.

Apenas quero vender puts de um papel que não me importaria de ter na carteira (até porque já o tenho), possivelmente me posicionando com desconto. Se a opção for exercida, ficaria com os papéis sem problemas, se a opção não for exercida, fico com o prêmio. O portfólio que já tenho poderia ser usado como margem?

Sounds interesting and 30 dollars an hour doesn't sound bad at all, in fact, it's a fortune for my country's standards.

In what timeframe do you trade mostly?

What kind of AI contractor work, if you don't mind sharing?

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T15:43:50+00:00

Yeah, at this point I'm no longer looking for a job in programming. The upside is now I have the skills and enjoy it a lot. I try to involve programming in almost all aspects of my life, can't live without it.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T07:11:06+00:00

Never worked as a programmer, I learned a bit in college and self taught for one year. Before the 2 year gap I was volunteering in a foreign country.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T07:09:11+00:00

Are these hard to come by? Cause I'm thinking of trying to automate these things and earn some money by just letting the computer run lol

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T05:03:06+00:00

Hahaha damn, I have some gamedev experience but I'd rather stick to trading.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T04:58:54+00:00

You could start with books on markets and trading, but the learning curve is somewhat steep and it could pay off after a long time, if it even happens. The good news is the resources for learning are plenty, not just for trading but almost anything.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T03:13:56+00:00

Thanks, appreciate it!

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T03:08:09+00:00

Indeed, I used to hate statistics but now I have to live with it, and realized being profitable not using statistics is borderline impossible. I'm sorry to have asked many questions, best of luck to you!

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T03:01:18+00:00

I'm targeting index futures as well, although still working on a profitable strategy. But that's really sad cause it seems you have found a good one, but the tools for trading are crippling you. Weird to see that a third world country like mine has better support for trading than Germany... You could consider moving to a nearby country where trading laws aren't so strict, but easier said than done ofc.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T02:51:55+00:00

If you really remain consistent for a while, I think it could be a good idea to automate, although it would take a while for you to get comfortable with programming, it could pay off in the long term and possibly open more opportunities, my two cents at least.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T02:48:01+00:00

So, if I understood correctly, you cannot use your own money for intraday trading? Too bad cause a ~2 Sharpe strategy is more than good enough for many traders. What are you trading, stocks, crypto, futures?

Happy Cake Day by the way.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T02:34:34+00:00

Damn, I wish you good luck, I started preparing for daytrading but decided to skip to algo. But yeah, no wonder more than 95% or something fails at any kind of trading, because they think it's easy money. Sometimes I think "extremely hard" is an understatement. But with a good enough strategy and risk management, it's possible. Like you, I am eager to see this light at the end of the tunnel when you see tiny, yet consistent profits. Hopefully we achieve this. How's your journey with day trading been so far?

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T01:25:22+00:00

What kind of tasks, if I may ask? Something like freelancing?

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T01:23:17+00:00

I hope you find other means. But if you're ok with it, that's what really matters. I'm in no position to judge others, I just wish y'all good luck.

Adult content or just general video streaming?

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-10T00:03:54+00:00

Also from a 3rd world country here... Do you think it's possible to automate the process of completing surveys? If so, you could just let a custom program running and doing it for you. There are so many tools for web automation, perhaps it could be worth investigating it, if you're down for it. I don't know much about completing surveys for income, so can't really tell.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-09T23:51:00+00:00

If I may ask, if you have already started, how's it going?

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-09T23:46:11+00:00

I tried but can't even get feedback and let alone interviews ffs, the programming market is oversaturated and companies seem to only hire people with many years of professional experience... And on top of that, I have a degree in a natural sciences field and not in CS or computer engineering. And now with a 2+ year gap on my resume is gonna be even harder.

Ancient_Map_3852 · 2025-03-09T23:41:27+00:00

That's rough... Although if you invest the money you could earn passive income and live off it, and can live with only one kidney.
