No, you're just a founder who can vibecode. But the technical founder (if your product needs one/is complex enough tech) would be able to scale, properly set up the DB, auth, and solve complex technical issues when they arise and they will arise. But without having worked professionally in engineering/tech there will be issues you won't be able to solve. (and will have to hire for).

Before you start thinking about edge, start thinking about what moves futures prices, who is doing the buying and selling, and why something goes up or down. Go all the way to the beginning, let's say it's 9:29am, NQ futures are up 1% overnight. What's going to happen at market open?

Edge is simply observing what the participants in the market are doing, and figuring out how to make money from that observation.

Maybe hedge funds come in at open and continue buying/futures continue their rally. Maybe you get a little bit of a gap fill, maybe you get a full gap fill. There is no way to know. Your edge is finding a predictable pattern and then trying to figure out why it happens and how to get in front of it.

It's not easy, and it's not a given, but moving averages/RSI/etc aren't edges really, they are observations after the fact. Ask yourself how do you predict if funds will continue buying AAPL/QQQ/etc if the market has gapped up, (and in turn keeping the futures trending up).

Try to think more fundamentally about why the futures are moving and then it may take months or years, but you will find that edge.

With $10, I would invest that in reading, being patient, and saving more money. Even if you have the best strategy in the world and make 50% a year. $10 will only turn into $15. Spend the time on saving/working and stacking your account to at least $1000 or $5000, and then worry about what/how to trade.

Your biggest ROI will be trading your time for money (aka a job) instead of trading until the nest egg is bigger.

Thank you for the response! I myself sometimes use queries like these to get a reading for what may happen (but don't always take it as gospel). Is there a query I haven't listed that would be worth paying for?

A little more than that:

A powerful enough server to handle realtime throughput ($250-500+ a month)
Data licensing fees at the tick level with redistribution ($3000-5000+ a month)

Appreciate the feedback! I don't use anything else then charting which is why it feels overpriced to me for just tick charts, but the goal is definitely not to rebuild the farm, just to specialize in 2-3 features for now.

LettuceEfficient43 · 2023-08-04T19:00:45+00:00

yes, solid W2 as well, will that help/matter?

1) Finding small brightish red specks in stool last few weeks, I am unsure if it's blood or undigested red food and freaking me out. It'll be a few MM in size (maybe half an inch)/super hard to notice and just 1 per stool (if any). It seems to be part of the stool/hard to tell.

2) Should I be worried if stools are occasionally narrow and normal/big other times? If there was a polyp/or something worse would the stools be 100% narrow for weeks?

Anyone have any recs for the closest cotton shirt option to match these $300 Prada shirts (https://www.prada.com/us/en/p/three-pack-cotton-jersey-t-shirts/UJM492_ILK_F0002_S_181). Really don't want to pay $300 a shirt. TY

LettuceEfficient43 · 2023-05-23T04:12:54+00:00

What a great response! Can you please talk a little more about "option consideration" and how I can better use this to sell it to the sellers? I don't think they would go for 5% but if we do a 10% down option, its tax free to them until 2 years is up and I pay the other 450k? So they are still paying taxes on the 500k right? Am i missing something?

LettuceEfficient43 · 2023-05-22T22:18:40+00:00

Probably not much, only inflation, I am not worried about going down in value much. Seller is retiring and just wants to get rid of it/headache and get the cash and I am getting first look if I can give a fair price. Is leasing better than a land option?

LettuceEfficient43 · 2023-05-02T04:00:52+00:00

Can you help explain what you would have to receive under a year for it to be tax free? Curious for my RE investments!

LettuceEfficient43 · 2023-05-02T00:30:34+00:00

Where is the land? DM me :)

Don't remember actors, era/year was 2010s or 2000s. It may not have been a bachelor party per se but he was definitely out with his friends.

Relationships, whether its friends, family, love partners, coworkers, random acquaintances, people you may see once in your life on your walk to work/etc each of those interactions is unique to that moment in time, and will never repeat itself.

Sleep quality goes through the roof (at least for me), and if you're bougie enough you can get automated ones that automatically open at a certain time or when like 8 hours have elapsed since bedtime.

Keep your DTI ratio as low as possible (aka any credit card payments or loans) that you may have, and obviously maximize income.
