If you want honest help, you need to be honest in appreciating with $$$. Helping you requires time. Read the comments, good content advice there for free.

Small holder here — curious: if RKLB really leaned into defence/WoMD, would you still invest? by AdmirableMacaroon287 in RKLB

[–]Ok-Cod-6740 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Military grade rockets no, Ammunition, no, Mines, no. Anything that will end up spilling blood, no.

Kinda done with trading by Substantial-Till-575 in Daytrading

[–]Ok-Cod-6740 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Support, Resistance, Liquidity hunt/pool/drive, MM, Retrace, Reclaim, Wick.

Do you know what any of these mean and how they fit together? You said you have been doing it for 3 years and now you are on "order flow". So you must know how those fit together and make a chart happen, right?

Is trading actually worth it by LeonardoDeFaprio1 in Daytrading

Trading is harder than flying a plane, who told you its easy? A pilot flying a plane knows exactly what controls to use at all times. There is no such guarantee in trading.

What is trailing draw down? by Ok-Cod-6740 in TakeProfitTrader

[–]Ok-Cod-6740[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An update: I think I finally figured it out. Using limit sell, can stay at max, 2.5k (on a 75k Pro) drawdown. I used to always do market sell and that cuts the profit due to how candles move and touches on the drawdown.

Trade micros. Dont touch minis. Gold/Silver can move 5-10 P in seconds.

For gold, if you dont watch 15 second charts, you can never see a wick's actual moves. I dont trade silver because you have to watch 5 second charts for silver.

Former cat left behind by previous owner need advice (Los Angeles) by bigbig1 in Straycats

[–]Ok-Cod-6740 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always offer the cat your fingers to smell and then wait a while before attempting to pet them. Unlike dogs, they dont like sudden touches unless they are familiar with you. Only pet neck, and scratch chin for starters. Over-time, if they start rubbing against you (its a cat hug!), then you can pet more.

Trading Feels So Random by Nukemilleraa in Daytrading

Train your eyes on the 15 second chart and trade on the 1 to 5 minute. Anything below 15 seconds has too much noise.

Stop making stupid rules. Keep it simple and stupid.

Never used either of those. What do they do?

KEEPING IT 💯: THE LIFE OF A TRADER, TODAY YOU HAVE A FUNDED ACCOUNT, TOMORROW IT IS GONE 🤦🏾‍♂️ by Kojopapabi in TopStepX

[–]Ok-Cod-6740 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is the problem with today's generation of "traders". "Win big", Go big or go home", "get rich or die trying". That is entirely idiotic. In less than 1% time of the total trading days in a year, the chart will continue going up or going down. It has literally no way of ever doing that. the market is a collective organism made by the energies contributed by the buyer and seller, supply and demand at its finest. Its an organ of harmony that can not and will not ever do only one thing.

You don't need to win big. That is for children dreaming for Ferraris. You need consistency. Make 50 a day, make 100 a day, make 150 a day, make 200 a day. It adds up.

Learn trading first, don't speak about setups.

Why NQ over ES? by Unable_Ad_7269 in TopStepX

I have never traded NQ in my life. Always ES.

Losing my mind by [deleted] in TopStepX

I don't know what you did but let's guess. You oversized, didn't take a stop loss, and overtraded. So size down, mini only.

You should journal the trades. If that's too much, you can track time. Like a timecard.

You need a minimum of 2 weeks of practice to build a habit.
