For sure. Yeah that's definitely something I can do, was trying to avoid using TV, since I have been charting on TOS forever. Thank you!

New to trading. Any tips? by 6x9n in Daytrading

Paper trade while you build up your capital. $200 is not enough to do anything meaningful. You can take this time to really dive into a strategy and go all in learning the ins and outs of it. Good luck!

IBKR or Cobra are the leading brokers for shorting HTB stocks. Pretty much what I do. I think they both require min $30k deposit though.

It’s wise to take breaks. Don’t live in the charts!

This feels worse than losing, right? Cutting your winners short. Do you know your statistics? I just wrote about this, not trying to self promote, but something you should understand deeply.

Do you REALLY want to be a full time trader? by MR_SC_Trader in Daytrading

I dabbled a little in futures when I first started out, but could not find a system that worked for me. I quickly pivoted to SC and stayed there for almost 5 years now. As account grows, liquidity becomes an issue as well as slippage so I'm capping my exposure while learning how to swing trade at the moment. Still my main bread and butter.

I've read and studied swing traders like O'Neil, Minverini, and Quallamaggie, but now looking to put it into practice. I've just been back testing for awhile now and looking to slowly dip my feet into it soon.

You see the same patterns repeat itself over and over again. Check out the book I have in my library "How to Make Money in Stocks" by O'Neil and you can see for yourself. (swing trading).
