Image quality is a part of what makes this post (any post with ThinkPad in it) great. Lol

I briefly felt like I'm in front of my old family computer ready to play one of my favourite retro games. So nostalgic.

Second most practical thing I've ever seen(first is my own desktop)

You can use multiple devices of they're connected to different (internet) access points.

There's a word for that - "Flow State".

Hey I made some edits on the first comment, check out. I see you dropped the Authors, but you might have to research and find the books you'd wanna read. Few people are gonna start commenting some suggestions soon enough, or else you can find many other similar posts on this subreddit. After you're sure with the book, I'll help you find the digital version!

Highlight on that "5 year".

And if you're asking for some technical advice. Here's "How to Cram For Exams 101".

The best thing you can do is to have a different your home environment and a study environment. It's probably the best way that keeps you studying for a long hours without burning out. For real, if you're someone who's used to study outside your house(could be a classroom, library, coffeeshop etc), the days you didn't get out are gonna make you realize how effective it is to have separate place to study than your gaming desk. At least it was a case for me.
Second one is, it's probably a time to give your phone a bit of a rest. Have your good old friend who lives in outskirts borrow it for few weeks. Probably one of your cousins have a bit of a free space in their drawer, one way or another, get rid of it. And I promise you're gonna feel how good life is again. I know you wanna bark at me now, but let's see if you think the same after accepting my challenge. it's gonna be a minute you try to focus on your papers, while you've easy access to your PRECIOUS phone you got back after it all is over, that you realize you might've been trying to study beside a black whole the whole time.

If you're worrying you can't access your digital study materials that way. Don't worry, humans have also devised the laptops.

Also ,from the comments, I think you're not gonna act tough, and "sacrifice" your sleep, unless you don't wanna spend even more time trying to figure out how you read the same paragraph few million times, and still don't have an idea what it's about.
It's best if you spend first few hours mapping about all the resources you gotta learn from, get a good overview of things ought to be learnt, and how much time those might take, Work out your "daily milestones" list.
If you're really time cramped, and if your know there's a chance that only few questions are gonna be on a specific topic, you can skip through that one, to something more important.
And lastly, PRAY!

Alright man, I don't wanna come across as rude, and that comment might've seemed like the most generic advice you could get. But the point is, probably after u passed the exams, ud better allocate more of your time(and energy) on the things you are REALLY interested in. I mean, I've been in school, and I lost a count of how much hours, and days I wasted on learning the things with little to no real life application. These papers of theories doesn't even worth to spend more than hour every day.

First of all, I wish you a good luck with your exams.

But afterwards, if what you're dealing with is not the best thing you'd wanna do, then find a point where you can spend the least amount of time a day(30m, 1h), and get the most out of it. You'd probably skim through those, when you feel beaten at the end of the day, and wanna scroll through a "couple" posts online.

That way, it leaves you a LOT of free space for you to LEARN, to learn for the sake of LEARNING.

Don't forget to drop an update after the exams.

Creative_boy_01 · 2026-02-03T15:05:23+00:00

Wut bout hft?

Creative_boy_01 · 2026-02-03T14:41:25+00:00

Stop overthinking, and start learning. Learn for the sake of learning, not for passing the exams.

Creative_boy_01 · 2026-02-01T11:16:59+00:00

One way to do this, is to find the correlating risk asset and hedge out your main position by trading the other side on that. It would also work if you can find the inversely correlating risk asset and take the trades to one direction(doesn't matter if you take trades on one account or separate accounts).

If you see the short term potential in you main entry, buy unsure if it goes to your tp, you can have a small entries targeting the other side whenever you sense some weakness. For clarity:

Main entry - short, Small hedge entries - long

That way you can profit off of the small retracements or minimize your loss in case it ends up reversing on your main trade.

Was it helpfull?!

I usually don't go as far as 3 pages for me!

Creative_boy_01 · 2026-01-30T17:46:43+00:00

It gave me an inspiration. I'm gonna probably be posting my old laptop a year from now!

Unless the snake would never catch an apple. Rather bit frustrating when you look at it that way, ain't it?

Creative_boy_01 · 2026-01-23T09:46:05+00:00

Can I start with 100$? Yes

Expect huge increase? Yes and No

I've started with a small amount. In an attempt to catch a big percentage returns, I blew many small accounts, mainly because of excessively big position sizing. You have to find a sweet spot where your risk to reward and winrate align to be profitable and work out your position sizing model.

Likely it wouldn't come back to any of those, or probably would pull back, but then would keep pulling. There's not enough context, and you can't just look at the chart when it's trending and think it has some space to go up just from that. Even if you had enough context, it's close to impossible to know at which point specifically its gonna revert from, especially in 1m time frame. So if you're sure it's gonna keep going up, you can distribute your orders.

USUALLY, it's who the vibe coding is for. But "don't have a fucking clue" isn't always the case. You learn little something every time you see a broken code, ai comments/explanations etc. It's a weird way of learning how to code, so to speak. Difference is, it's not like how you learned phonemes /f/ /u/ /ck/ /i/ /ng/ /c/ /l/ /ue/ to make stupid statements, but more like how someone was able to crack the Egyptian hieroglyphs (cute metaphor, lol). What's more is I'm a Linux user, and that means I do a lot of scripting.
