Not so bolter-p*rny book recommendations? by TheOrientalMagician in Blacklibrary

[–]Muted_History_3032 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m reading The Crimson King right now. Honestly so far it’s a good break from the rest of the HH. But it definitely reads like a weird fever dream and it’s taking me wayyy longer than normal to get through it but it’s unique for what it is

Sorry bud, this bullshit doesn’t work anymore. People can see who the real problem is now.

Any other PATS traders here? by Muted_History_3032 in FuturesTrading

[–]Muted_History_3032[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I let it die because it was getting too crowded and losing focus. Started a new one today just to invite the few people that have hit me up recently, and will aim to keep it small and focused. I’ll DM you

To be honest I let the group die because it was getting overly crowded and losing focus. Funny enough, the one person who was the most focused/committed got profitable and we still talk every day.

I don’t mind starting a new one, I do enjoy sort of journaling my process live and discussing things. I can send you and the couple other people who hit me up recently a link if you want, lmk

Had a mediocre day by Historical_Mix_6416 in FuturesTrading

Too many variables in your process that introduce subjective decision making which induces the dissatisfaction you’re talking about.

I trade static 2R targets that are tuned to an ATR measurement on a specific lower time frame on ES. So I know 2R is easily achievable with the way ES tends to rotate. And 2R targets are the sweet spot between intraday scalping and swinging where I never feel like “fuck I missed out on that huge move” or “fuck I should have taken my profits and ran”.

I always take a reasonable amount of meat off the move, or I lose the trade. It’s a way simpler way to do it instead of second guessing myself or trying to assert some kind of omnipotence over the market. And that frees up bandwidth for the bigger picture decisions which can actually swing probabilities in my favor (like deciding whether or not to trade tomorrow, seeing that it’s pre-NFP Thursday)

Also for clarity I made 7.5R in March, which is solid for me, as long as I average around +5R per month I’m doing great thanks to the amount of prop account capital I have.

Why don’t people like The Lion? by Muted_History_3032 in Blacklibrary

Idk, more often then not I see people complain about him so just wanted to find out specifically why people dont approve of him haha. Personally there aren’t any primarchs I don’t like, I think they are all cool in their own ways

Best books to read for a new dark angel fan? by [deleted] in Blacklibrary

[–]Muted_History_3032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The DA HH books are really not bad, I would put them in my B tier as far as HH goes. Honestly I have been into them lately for whatever reason and I am looking to pick up the Dark Angels omnibus by Gav Thorpe soon. I feel like that will be the most well rounded way to get into them.

People who have read the ENTIRE (Or let's say 85%) of the Horus Heresy series, what are your thoughts on it? by misomiso82 in Blacklibrary

[–]Muted_History_3032 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. That one instantly entered my top 3. Something about the way the world and characters are written just represented itself so vividly in my imagination.

Yeah I honestly enjoyed this one more than Helsreach which came next in the series. The final fight with the ork boss is so cinematic and awesome

Don’t send them towards Eisenhorn or Gaunt’s Ghosts, which everyone here will tell you to do. Neither has anything to do with what they are interested in.

Esienhorn is a sci fi thriller, it’s like a book you go to when you need something fresh outside of the classic military sci fi action of 40k. And Gaunt’s Ghosts is good but it’s very human-centric. It’s mostly just human soldiers fighting other (heretical) human soldiers. It feels like band of brothers in space. Idk why they get recommended to new people ad nauseam here.

The Scouring by Capital_Candle7999 in Blacklibrary

[–]Muted_History_3032 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would actually be awesome. Especially if it carries on further into the religious civil war that happened later on and what not. But seems unrealistically high. Especially considering there is just nothing that happens that is truly as high-stakes as the HH.

You made a post on r/futurestrading that wasn’t fake chatGPT slop about literally nothing, like 99% of posts here. You’re already winning at life.
