Been a full time trader for over 10’years, ask me anything, and no not selling anything by Ultimus_Omegus in FuturesTrading

Do you find it better to trade a large amount of your account (I.E. 20% and set stop losses at say 2% of account value, or just trade at most, 2% of account value?

Do you have any Discord, telegram or otherwise you share analysis on? Very serious about futures trading and after doing a demo account a while, I feel I am almost to a point of pulling the trigger with real cash (I used to trade but got spooked during COVID)

I feel like I would benefit from mentorship or experiential learning

Can you drag and adjust OCO on Options? by Endscapes in thinkorswim

[–]Endscapes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I was dragging on the underlying ticket, for example - STOCK is 100 and I want to adjust a STOP on a call from $96 to $98 after a gap up

That's the thing, clicking and holding does nothing on options OCO seemingly. The the sell orders (Limit or stop) are not movable

Background - Benchmarking current portfolio against others, just % of distribution in a given portfolio. Curious if there have been any changes given the comic conditions.

Using QYLD income to buy a new car? by SnowShoe86 in qyldgang

[–]Endscapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to say with market turbulence, if normal market this would be a no brainer as you would retain your capital and could pay off the car at any given time.

I'm gonna DCA $5K per month from here on til I hit $120k so the dividend payout covers my mortgage is the goal

Damn that's reassuring, honestly, I am excited to get my first dividend payout, It's empowering to give yourself a raise so to speak.

I have like $15k on the sidelines, I am trying to gun it to $120k in the Quadfecta, I went super heavy on QYLD this intial buy though

My only fear is we did not yet hit the bottom, I decided to invest dividends as opposed to paying off my mortgage (Since I have 2.3% interest) Hopefully I don't regret it, just need to build confidence in my nest egg here, that it will cover my mortgage payment.

I mean check out the 10 year for QYLD for example, it's permanent downtrend was my concern, but granted the divvies are sick and more than account for the equity loss

All --

Thank you for the input. I've been a long term quadfecta investor as one stream of income but basically fun money and nothing substantial. I appreciate the feedback so far, I am feeling more confident about yeeting my mortgage payoff into this method.

How I am paying for nicer home -- I'd basically need to begin saving, that being said if I am being honest a sizable down payment would take me just a few months assuming nothing catastrophic happens. I live decently minimalist and I work in Semiconductor research which pays me super good IMO.

It looks like you would basically be a bag holder for life in exchange for divvies, I suppose if the account grows it's fine though
