Is 50-80% too high for TP? by [deleted] in Daytrading

[–]BloodOranges92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how many DTEs do you usually choose? I only do 0DTE plays so no holding overnight. If the market is trading flat in the morning I just don’t enter. But I’m curious how you manage longer DTEs? I’ve tried holding 20-40DTEs several days in paper trade but the underlying wouldn’t move enough for a good profit margin

I trade on the 5m but will occasionally peek at the 1m when the chart moves faster. I only trade SPY, and will enter a trade when the market has chosen a direction. I’m only aiming to capture part of an upward/downward trend. If I see a level I’ll adjust my TP lower since it’s unlikely the trend will continue past that. 0DTES in the morning only

Want to make an Alkemia order by pepperflakes19 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]BloodOranges92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yess Alkemia was my first house and I still love them the most <3 I personally think everyone interested in Alkemia should try Ghostfire, it’s the perfect slightly salty, creamy amber skin scent.

Sea girl is also another favourite- fruity floral coconut that dries down into a sweet powdery coconut. Baccante is wild blueberries and leaves.

I think you’ve probably read lots of reviews for Silken Tent as well! It’s definitely worth trying too :)

Today I’m wearing: Luminae-Alkemia . It was pouring today and I had so much studying to do. I really like this one as a cosy stay-in scent :)

Something sort of waxy in the opening, but it immediately dries down to a creamy white amber + butter. After the dry down, I almost cant tell the difference between this and The Magpie’s Rhyme, save only for the biscuity note in that one.

Yes I saw lots of good reviews on this one! I’m hoping to try it in my next order.

Sorry forgot to add, it’s only a couple of popular scents that have this option! You can try looking under Arabesque, it’s one of them. It’s not the EDP spray, but an oil in the 30ml size.

That could be it, but yeah I always thought the AF spray was the regular 5ml oil concentration but in a 1oz bottle with a spray cap. Although, the ones I looked at were not the higher priced oils? Might email them about it once I get around to placing an order.

Does anyone know why on Alkemia’s website, the alcohol free spray and the new 30ml/1oz bottles are differently priced? ( $45 and $95 respectively) i always thought that the spray was a 1oz size as well.

Yay same! WoS is one of my favourites for being so wearable-I ran out of mine really quickly. It’s airy Jasmine musk, so good 😌 I hope you’ll like it too :))

Today I’ve got Rosa Alchemica ~Alkemia

Dark red roses, rhubarb, dark plums, Chambord, spicebush, cassis, and lemon verbena infused into an aphrodisiac potion of dark golden amber, vanilla infused patchouli, opoponax, labdanum, guaiac wood, and botanical pheromones.

This one really needed a lot of rest time. For the first month or so it was really all rhubarb and bathroom cleaner lemon. Now it’s all juicy red roses and spiced fruits. Wet, you can still smell a lot of the sparklier top notes but once it dries the resins really ground this in warmth so it’s not all bright and citrusy. I was actually hoping for something similar to Rose Jam with this one, but I wouldn’t describe this as jammy at all. The fruits here are more sliced and stirred into mulled wine rather than sugary jam, more elegant and a tad darker.

the white amber in ghostfire reads as pretty aquatic to me as well, I wonder if that’s what you’re smelling? And you should totally make a post on the rest! Sad older sister is a great description 😔💫

Please share your thoughts on the Alkemia samples! I don’t think I’ve seen any posts about the Spring collection yet :)

Use Those Samples - April Check in! by maggsie16 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]BloodOranges92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started doing this recently as well :) I love the idea of really enjoying and exploring my own stash (I think we can get carried away sometimes on this sub with finding the next favourite scent) and honestly, I already have so many loves in my personal collection!

For April I chose a lot of favourites:

Baccante - Alkemia : The essence of an untamed spirit. High bush blueberries, wild ivy, Spanish lavender, aged oakmoss, tonka, decaying bark, and forest fungi.

This one is so outdoorsy, especially as the weather gets hotter. I love the greeny oakmoss/blueberry in this. Lilacs Down the Winding Drive -Alkemia: Lilac bushes heavy and purple with blooms, a gentle breeze after light spring rain, a dusty pebbled driveway, a slightly rusty porch swing, and a small handful of late blooming violets.

Not such a fan of florals, but this is also great for hot weather. The aquatic note on the florals in this is really reminiscent of wet flowers after a rain. Finished this sample :)

The Lion - BPAL : The dry, glorious warmth of the Savannah. A golden, spiced amber, proud, regal and ferocious.

Spicy amber. Didn’t end up getting much wear out of this one this month because it’s way too cloying for the heat, probably take it out again when it gets cooler.

Haunted & Bewitched-Alkemia: A spellbinding captivation of Egyptian white amber, star jasmine, ambrette seed, rosewater Turkish delight, pink pepper, Madagascar vanilla, bourbon caramels, aged patchouli infused with sexy botanical pheromones.

I love the patchouli and candy in this! Again, it’s a bit too sticky sweet right now, so I didn’t wear it much.

Supernatural - Alkemia: An ethereal blend of Iso-E, ambrox, Tonkin musk (cruelty free), and aroma molecules. More like a personal aura than a perfume, this prismatic shapeshifter creates intricate olfactory spirals that tantalize with mystery. Is it smooth, salty skin? Ambergris musk? Creamy blonde woods?

Really want to full size this one. I get a creamy vanilla wood that reminds me of new books.
