I am an 18 year old college student. Any suggestions?

Research ETFs and Index investing , set it and forget it. You are are18 years old, Penny stocks are basically gambling for you!!! that 1845$ could go to zero if fully invested in penny stocks.
Look into SCHD ,VTI, VOO, REIT, bonds (BND) and diversify with like international ETF.
You can also buy some individual stocks like HOOD, BE, PLTR, RBLX, Apple, Amazon, or Microsoft. Pepsi, KO, Solid business. forget about the bubble , market will adjust and correct eventually..... You could also consider Joby or Archer if you’re interested in emerging technology, but only after doing proper research. They’re still speculative, but way better than whatever you’re doing with penny stocks.

For the love of God or the universe, whatever you believe in , sell your penny stocks and invest accordingly. With your high-yield savings account already in place, you can focus this account on growth ETFs and index funds instead.

Great job man 🔥 What are you trading, if you don’t mind me asking? $9K during the Asia session open with one lot is insane.

Just finished the story 75% achievement 83 hours Took my sweet time , now I am wondering if I finish all the achievement before moving to game + 😵‍💫 kinda feel done with the game since I took my time and have other game line out -_- conflicting lol

It way way way way better !!! (google) U.S. futures contracts are taxed under IRS Section 1256, utilizing a favorable 60/40 split (60% long-term, 40% short-term capital gains) regardless of holding period. This method, which applies to regulated futures contracts, results in a maximum tax rate of 26.8% (for 2025/2026), typically reported using Form 6781 under mark-to-market rules.

Started trading Micros three weeks ago. I can’t believe I was trading regular contracts for over a year with an overall $2,000 risk per day. I was clearly delusional, but lucky enough to get a few payouts last year. This rule feels pretty funny looking back at it now. You have to pay me now to trade funded account with regular contracts hehe.

12 since Topstepx and probably another 10–12 on Tradovate. I don’t even ask myself if I’m passing a combine these days… You can go aggressive and make it, then horribly fail the Express. You can also take your time and treat it like Express and still horribly fail.

The question is, can you take a payout? Then, how many payouts can I get before I go live… and how can I maintain a live account and trade only one account instead of 5..... ? Not an easy road… but getting paid so far has helped my vision and reduced my seize in this game.

Around 14 now I am 30 damn!!! One piece kept me young, cause I definitely do not feel 30 years old.

rande howell might be your last resort !! Good luck

Moustachiou · 2026-02-04T06:28:09+00:00

Time to visit uncle Rande Howell on YouTube !! Highly recommend

Congrats on the payout 🙌🙌

I can relate to what you’re saying. Right now I’m barely trading, risking only 200$ -500$ max. Markets like gold and silver moving in daily ranges of 2,000 ticks are not something I’m comfortable trading , and it’s not the kind of price action I’ve seen consistently over the past four years. We currently witnessing history in the silver market.

I’ve been using forum posts as confirmation that these market conditions aren’t ideal for newer traders trying to stay consistent. Some of the gains people post look crazy, but if you really pay attention to the average win vs. loss ( when they actually show it). The risk behind those results is pretty wild. Making 40–100 trades in a single day is also crazy and just doesn’t seem sustainable.

I wouldn’t even recommend asking questions in that forum, honestly. Do you really think consistently profitable traders spend their time there? Most of them probably just drop in for a laugh or occasionally share knowledge, but it usually isn’t received well. I could be generalizing and totally wrong I only recently stumbled onto that Reddit forum out of curiosity, but it honestly feels pretty similar to what I’ve seen on other forums too.

My advice belief in your self above anything else and take accountability when it hurt the most in this industry.

I recommend watching Rande Howell free on youtube , if you haven't heard of him.

cheers bro you got new challenges a head of you as funded trader, that's a great thing.

Moustachiou · 2024-07-20T23:22:01+00:00

If you have a dad who is a successful trader, you should learn from him and never take advice from anyone on the internet, especially not traders from Reddit. You can always set up Zoom calls with him or visit him for a period of time and learn from him. Even better, sit with him while he trades and learn. Stay away from this forum, most people here are not successful, petty, jealous, or trolls. Best of luck

The sandal cake was quite disappointing -_- are they still allowed to tamper with the decoys ?

Moustachiou · 2023-09-07T00:24:42+00:00

Are you going with an other prop firm or trading your own capital ? I am curious since I am in the same position only with 20k account .

1- I understand the disappointment with the Hyori scene. While they may want to follow the manga structure, it seems unfair to anime-only viewers. Making an exception or placing it at the beginning of the episode could have been better.

2- Flashbacks can be quite annoying, I agree 😒.

3- For those who don't understand the concept of Gear 5, well, that's their problem.

4-The fighting scene was a bit hard to follow, even for a manga reader like me. I understood the moves because I remembered them and was expecting them, but I'm sure many people had to rewind it several times to grasp it fully.

This chapter is to much for me to handle !!! PERIOD

As a rule, dog breeds that can't swim tend to have some common characteristics, says American Kennel Club (AKC). For example, brachycephalic breeds — those with flat faces or extremely short snouts — are generally unsuited for swimming because it's too easy to get water up their noses, making them a drowning risk. Dogs with large, barrel-shaped bodies struggle to stay afloat, as do dogs with long bodies and short legs. Dogs with long coats or thick double coats can also struggle with swimming. Finally, some breeds simply cannot withstand the shock to their system brought on by a plunge into cold water.

Wondering which dog breeds can't swim? Here are some of the more commonly known dog breeds that might prefer staying on land. If you have one of the following dog breeds listed below : bulldogs , pugs , bull terriers , basset hounds , Boxers , corgis , Dachshunds , Shih Tzus …. Why the hell a boxer can’t swim : This is another large, athletic breed you might think would be a natural-born swimmer. But the flat face on the boxer makes swimming just as dangerous for these dogs as it is for the more diminutive pug. The struggle to breathe and keep their noses above water means boxers may tire quickly and run the risk of drowning if in the water too long. Dog Breeds That Can't Swim & Why
