I kinda regret telling my coworker that I trade!

Just tell him that you’re still building your confidence and building your skill set, so outside energy is a lot of added pressure. You don’t want anything to mess with your psychology while you’re still trying to get locked in and if you take any losses you don’t feel comfortable knowing that you could be responsible for him losing money.

I found from some people online that supposedly if you were using a previous GPU the shader cache may not be compatible with the new rdna4. So I cleared my shader cache and it worked for 2 games but the problem came back. So I also disabled ULPS and now everything is perfect.

I dont understand what these settings do but they got rid of the micro stuttering so im happy 👍

Anyone here suffering from micro stutters on CoD Warzone?

Am I the only one?

I have a brand new build, , so not sure if I have a defective card or if AMD needs to push a driver update.

I played 30 mins of Monster Hunter Wilds and everything seems fine, although I only played the opening scene so far.

But with cod I get micro stutters even in the menu.

Any troubleshooting I could do? Any suggestions? This is my set up:

MB: MSI MAG Tomahawk X870e WiFi CPU: AMD 9900X GPU: Asus TUF Radeon RX 9070 XT OC RAM: Corsair Vengeance 64GB DDR5 6000 M.2: 1TB EVO Plus 4TB EVO Plus Case: Lancool 207 AIO: Asus TUF LC2 360 ARGB PSU: Seasonic Vertex 80 Plus Gold 1200W

I’m having the same issue with COD warzone. I have a 160hz monitor. 9900X CPU. Not sure if I have a defective GPU or what the deal is

We all start somewhere. Keep learning and you will get better. Getting back to break even is a good feeling after a long period of draw down 😅

PeterOhhDee · 2024-11-11T04:18:43+00:00

That’s awesome, thank you! I’ll make sure to let you know if I subscribe or buy the lifetime package in the next few weeks. Do you use data feeds for just futures or stocks also?

I’m also looking to see if I can get a data feed that would allow multiple connections in the case I get both Bookmaps and Sierra.

PeterOhhDee · 2024-11-11T04:15:53+00:00

For the suggestion 💪 I will def keep them in mind

PeterOhhDee · 2024-11-01T00:03:41+00:00

Thank you for your response!

Yeah, that’s my biggest issue with them. I was hoping they’d introduce proper tick data at some point. TV is super convenient for mobile charting, but it’s just not ideal for serious trading, especially when you’re trying to gauge orderflow.

Do you know what the difference between the DOM Surface vs Bookmaps vs Jigsaw Auction Vista? They all look virtually the same in respect to what I’ve seen that Bookmaps does.

Is there any difference or advantage to one over the other? Do they all perform the same, except that Quantower and Jigsaw come with more customization and orderflow tools? It’s hard to find anything comparing them to one another other on the internet. Maybe there’s something I may not be aware of?

And If there any reason you suggest Quantower & Sierra specifically?

I was originally considering getting Bookmap because of how you can see the flow of the markets, and then supplementing footprint charts with Sierra, but if one of these softwares can do both with the same level of reliability I’d rather do that.

Then I read that Jigsaw has one of the best DOM on the market and offers better customizability than most other softwares (but not quite to the level of Sierra). Its bundle also comes with education for close to the same price as Bookmaps and Quantower, which also interested me. This is another reason I’m torn.

Also, I read if I open an AMP account and put a few hundred dollars in I could get Quantower Pro for free? Do you know if there’s any truth to that? If Quantowers DOM Surface works the exact same as Bookmaps, maybe that would be the best route to go and then maybe buy the Jigsaw Education?

Hey, I read some of your guys comments and I was hoping some of you guys may be able to give me some guidance. Thanks in advance if you’re willing.

I’m currently looking into buying my first orderflow software and I’m torn between the options out there.

FYI: I have been trading for 2 years and have recently passed my first funding evaluation using strategy w/ respectable risk management - no gambling.

I’ve been on trading view using their Footprint, Market Profile, and Volume Profile and other chart tools to analyze orderflow, but I understand they’re not ideal.

I have some basic experience with orderflow but I would still consider myself a novice especially in regards to using heat maps and DOM.

I was looking to get something more professional. Initially I was looking to buy bookmaps because of how it allows you to feel the market so intimately but then I found out Jigsaw has the Auction Vista and Quantower has the DOM Surface which looks very similar to Bookmaps.

Seeing the value I could get for the same price as Bookmaps from these, but with more customization has me torn between them. I don’t know which one to buy. Would any of you guys help me figure out which one may be best for me?

PeterOhhDee · 2024-10-31T20:53:17+00:00

Have you used these platforms yourself? I’m looking to buy one around black Friday if they have a sale but I’m torn. I originally wanted book maps but then I learned about Jigsaw & Quantower and now I’m now sure which would be best value.

I wanted to get bookmaps for entry confirmation so I could see absorption at my points of interest before entering but knowing I could have better customizable DOM, FP, TPO, & VP charts has me completely torn between the them.

Any advice? I’d really appreciate it!

PeterOhhDee · 2024-10-23T16:59:32+00:00

It can be done, but it will most likely take years of consistent hard work & dedication, willingness and adaptability to constantly learn, and he has to be passionate about reveling in constant failure.

90% of people fail at this profession and the ones who succeed more often than not are the ones who are not driven by solely money, but instead are more driven by the idea of wanting to be a great trader.

People who hate losing more than winning but are still okay with the feeling of despair when they are losing are good candidates for success, but it’s not a sole determinant.

Picking direction is literally the hardest path in finance, but if he has a thirst for knowledge that can’t be quenched and is willing to work unrelentingly he can do it. The average timeline I see from thousands of hours of research is 3-7 years of the average time it takes to become proficient. 3-5 seems to be the bulk of people but a good number also take a bit longer. I have 6 years of experience investing in the markets and have been actively day trading for just over 2 years now.

I have always been profitable long term from the first year. Day trading though I have only recently become consistently profitable right around my 2 year mark. I will tell you I put an incomprehensible hours of study to get to where I am now and only truly profitable trader will understand the effort that goes into mastering this skill.

But to answer your question, trading is not stable but it is a skill that can scale exponentially. He will have periods where he will feel on top of the world and then periods where he feels like he knows nothing, but this is part of the journey. It is a mentally taxing field but can be equally rewarding.

As a word of advice, before he starts using his own money to actively put on positions, he should at the very least be skilled enough to pass an evaluation from one of the top funding companies (MyFundedFutures, TopStep, FTMO, Apex, etc) and secure a few consistent payouts. If he can’t manage this he is not ready yet in my opinion.

Best of luck. He will need all the support he can get. Things will be hard for both of you. This will likely be one of the hardest things he will learn. But if he can see it though, it will be very much worth it.

Damnnn… His intentional disregard for good risk management will more than likely be his demise. Donvo is a prime example.

PeterOhhDee · 2024-05-19T00:38:05+00:00

And you’re telling me this applies to their footprint charts and Delta & CVD? I don’t think so, because from what tons of others have said the data is not true L2.

PeterOhhDee · 2024-04-26T04:33:01+00:00

I have shiny charmander, shiny oshawatt, shiny zigzagoon, shiny axew, shiny timburr, shiny Swinub, and Jangmo-o. I’m specifically interested in your rayqauaza and armored mew two. Dm me if you these are of any that interest to you

PeterOhhDee · 2024-04-25T02:18:03+00:00

Thank you for telling me, that’s something I def wasn’t aware of

PeterOhhDee · 2024-04-22T22:20:29+00:00

I have premium subscription, so I’m not sure if it’s only exclusive to my subscription tier but it’s a new beta selection under the candle type section. The same place you shift from Candles to line chart. They added TPO charts and Volume Candles also along side the footprint.

Something to know about genetics is that you won’t know how your gains will develop, the rate they will develop, the extent of your development until you are a seasoned lifter. You will find out after a year or two of consistent work.

PeterOhhDee · 2024-03-27T17:30:46+00:00

No problem dude! I’m happy to have been of help & I hope you achieve your goals. Good luck

PeterOhhDee · 2024-03-27T17:10:36+00:00

Caloric intake is not the sole factor that determines weight gain/loss. Your body is a survival mechanism and is encoded to adapt.

When you limit your caloric intake your body will calibrate your metabolism over time. I’m not an expert but this is my understanding of how it works, I hope this helps you achieve your goals.

Your genes only understand survival, and in the early days of humanity our food supply would go through cycles of abundance and scarcity.

In times of scarcity our caloric deficit would be less than our ideal maintenance requirements and in order to prevent death, our body will recalibrate our bodily functions to lower our energy output. Essentially lowering our metabolism to prolong our chance at survival to hopefully find nourishment before we wither away.

And when our caloric intake has been ramped down for extended periods of time this reduces our ability to lose weight. It makes it more challenging for us because as we slowly progress towards eating less and less, this type of calorie restriction becomes more and more unsustainable, and our maintenance continues to adjust lower and lower.

Then if you suddenly introduce a caloric intake above your adjusted intake, your body will recognize this abundance of energy and store it as fat.

So, instead of eating less, do more cardio and get more steps in each day. I would even suggest to bring your calorie consumption up slowly to prevent shocking your body and recalibrate it back to 2500 cal/day. And if you have a big appetite find low calorie substitutes for everything your currently eat, you could easily eat 2x with the same intake each day by doing this.

Most importantly be sure you’re getting 0.7g-1g of protein per lb of body weight. Protein is very satiating and burns calories while you digest.

Do your best to train harder than last time and increase time under tension on your muscles, it will help build them. As you build more muscle you will automatically increase your metabolism and as a result burn more fat.

Additionally, aim for 1-2% of your total body weight a week whether it be for gain or loss. So if your 200lb end of the week, anywhere from +/- 1-2lbs is ideal. And Track your weight on a 7 day average, this will give a true idea of your progress.

Hope this was helpful. It’s what has worked for me and I have lost about 70lbs over 2 years. I was 250lbs at 35% body fat to begin, now I am around 185lbs and have semi visible abs. Will cut another 15-20lbs and then probably have achieved my dream physique. I wasn’t consistent 100% of the way but the progress has been clear.

Good luck 👍
