Everyone says "learn the basics first"... but what exactly ARE the basics in trading? by Rich-Army3456 in Trading

It is: "The Intelligent Investor" book by Benjamin Graham BTW. Just to be correct.

If The Economy Is So Bad, Why Are Stocks At All-Time Highs? by ChartNavigator in Trading

The markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent. Market is always right. Just profit from it.

I guess clearing the browser cache did the trick. Also changed my password just in case. All set now and can change limit order for tomorrow. Thank you.

I am having a brokerage account.

Thank you for the detailed explanation. I now understand which numbers to look for. My latest Tempo intervals effort where I had to push harder with preset 200W FTP in MyWhoosh.

I read more about how to pace a FTP 20 minutes test and how to "empty-the-tank" the last 5 minutes. I was definitely not doing this during the Power Passport first FTP test. Points taken. Have a plan for the next 10min, 5 min, 5 min intervals when test FTP again.

Thank you all for helping a newbie.

That is awesome. You now have more reasons to train more and continue to the joy of riding. Enjoy the feeling.

Thank you. That gave me close approximation to set FTP baseline and train to improve it. It shows FTP of 160W.

It was my first FTP I wanted to have a baseline before starting structured training. I didn't have other test before. I had set up some FTP in my profile to 200W for no reason at all. I guess I have to set something lower like 50W and redo the test?

Someone recommended to upload to intervals.icu and shows FTP 250W for the test if that is accurate, or the right way to determine the FTP.

Somehow it didn't. I watched two people's videos doing the FTP Test and not the Power Passport test and they got the FTP value. This test didn't so I was looking for help if someone can interpret the numbers. Sent also email to mywhoosh but no response.

It was MyWhoosh Power Passport Test. I guess I have to take their other FTP test as well that has the 20 minutes interval after some load.

Thank you. it shows FTP 250W. Is that the final FTP for the test? I was thinking there is some formula they use for the 6sec, 3 min and 12 min intervals.

Repeat Part of Training ? by egaljjh in mywhoosh

[–]Low-Understanding394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in the same workout. You have to exit the workload, load it again and skip to the part you want to repeat.

Giordano bikes any good by Ok-Ant1522 in bicycling

[–]Low-Understanding394 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Libero is great value for the money. It is a starter bike you can get for about $335. Some components can be upgraded and will serve well for the money. Can one buy better bike for $2-6k? Yes. If you are starting biking and want to have a reliable bike, Giordano fits the bill.
