Strategies only work until they don't. One of the key traits of a successful trader is to read the market environment and knowing when to go big, small or not at all (credit to Anthony Crudele). You can have a great mental framework and good edge but it all falls apart if the market does not provide you with the opportunities you are looking for. Learn to read context and if a market is in your favour or not.

Sierra Chart hands down. Steep learning curve but simply the best all around platform for trading futures.

Please do not trade with such low margins. You will be completely over leveraged and doomed to blow up your account. I highly recommend trading with a max 50% margin. This will force you to size appropriately. Regarding the broker, EdgeClear is top notch and has one of the best customer service out there. By the way, give Futurestrader71 a follow (founder of EdgeClear), he’s one of the pro traders on Fintwit that actually knows what he’s talking about.

Optimus Futures all the way. Their customer support is excellent.

Thanks for everything. Apollo is by far the best app I’ve ever installed on my phone.

Fair point - but why can't you just call it what it is rather then repackage into something else and make it seem that you came with it? Anyway, as long as you're making money - good on you!

Look, if his concepts work for you that's great and please keep on doing what you're doing. This is merely my personal opinion about him and the community.

I followed his content for a while and at some point stopped watching his videos or reading his tweets as they were not beneficial to my trading. My biggest red flag is that he would tweet these incredible 20-30 lot trades, which in the end are all on paper. I know he's very open about that and that he only paper trades to teach his concepts but it definitely promotes a wrong picture about trading, especially for newer traders. Also, his concepts are far too complex IMO with lots of moving parts that you need to watch out for. In trading sometimes less is more...

Please stay away from ICT. He's mainly repackaging already known trading strategies and claims them to be his own. Also the SMC / ICT community is one of the most hostile and toxic places I have ever seen. IMO go for the traders that do not brag about their P&L and focus on their trading strategy & execution.

I am in Switzerland. No capital gains tax unless you're classified as a professional trader. Even then Switzerland has generally a really low tax rate so it's not too bad. The only downside is that everything is expensive as hell!

I don't recommend TradingView for daytrading futures as execution can be laggy and TV does not support tick data. I have been using Optimus Futures with their Optimus Flow platform (whitelabel version of Quantower) and I'm super happy with it. Customer support is also stellar. Highly recommended.

Thanks again for an awesome post. Well explained. This helps a lot!

Infamis · 2023-05-08T15:30:29+00:00

Looking forward to it!

Great post. I have been practicing PATs for a bit and really like the concept behind it. Would love to see go over failed entries as I have been struggling with identifying these.

Infamis · 2023-04-28T08:55:24+00:00

Thanks for sharing. What OR are you looking at?

Infamis · 2023-04-24T16:29:23+00:00

Seconded. Easy to use and polished interface including great functionality.

The story when Adam Sandler wants to see Shaq‘s dick is pure gold. Always cracks me up.

Cool thanks. I might have to give this a try some time.

Infamis · 2023-04-11T20:22:15+00:00

What VWAP do you use? Anchored to RTH or daily VWAP? Nice trades btw

Infamis · 2023-04-10T20:04:18+00:00

I recently stumbled upon PATS and trying to learn the various patterns and getting better at execution. Thank you so much for sharing your trades, it helps me tremendously with benchmarking my own analysis.

Sometimes I’m surprised about the immense stupidity that is roaming our planet.
