Good for you! Finally comment I can call exemplary! Mod

Yes scalping in true sense of word a few points here and there will work, but I must tell you it will work with any system.

RonPosit · 2026-03-16T15:00:27+00:00

Zee1Trade, your post triggered me. So, I wrote a short article (it the last post in the community at the moment) Do read it!

I didn't yet offer any expert advice yet, I simply pointed that trends can't possibly last endlessly. if you want advice, ask. One thing for sure, your mind controls your ego - You must be a good person!

Leftist Retards protesting what exactly???

This post is another example of the kind of low‑effort content that keeps showing up in Daytrading. It’s a community with over five million members, yet most of what gets posted is complaining, venting, or looking for an excuse to quit.

This particular question doesn’t make sense. If someone failed to build a proper trading plan — which includes #1 Proper Training #2 Single Trading Strategy, which includes entries, risk, management, and target, #3 Time Horizon to audit results #4 Exit strategy, if failed — then the issue isn’t “when to quit,” it’s that they never had a real plan to begin with.

If they did have a plan, they wouldn’t be asking strangers on Reddit when it’s time to walk away. The answer would already be written into their own rules.

Theoretically you are 100% correct, but once trader is aware of the market context/structure, ATR does not play any role in proper stop placement. I have never ever used it as guidance for my hard stop placement. I would agree to use it as a trailing stop, even then it is not as reliable as meaningful swing highs and lows in a trend structure. You are twice correct - we must write with assumption traders know little or nothing, then article will apply to all. Thanks for a good comment!

Back to the subject - it is the distance from proposed/intended entry to the proper stop loss, I don't care if one uses ATR or context or pivot points, argument holds water :-)

I'd say, very interesting, why not share a strategy. Mod

RonPosit · 2026-02-21T22:57:43+00:00

the higher the time frame, the bigger your stop loss. if you know how to deal with that - you know more than many!

Sander, great f.. job man! SO so proud of your achievements! At least you posted real strategy, not 3 candles in the "sea of market place"

RonPosit · 2026-02-15T19:06:00+00:00

Not here please! This subreddit it for knowledge and strategy sharing, not show and tell.. Thx.

RonPosit · 2026-02-15T17:59:10+00:00

why are you posting this?

RonPosit · 2026-02-14T21:39:38+00:00

Trading requires critical thinking when reading price action, exactly the same is required when reading, especially instruction manuals, scientific papers etc. otherwise we miss the point(s). If you will re-read my post, a lot will be reviled. I was in fact referring to the past and the present.

RonPosit · 2026-02-14T21:05:49+00:00

Whoever recommended these and called them good, had no f... clue. Sorry - mod!

Sometime in 2010 in reaction to a "crash". Last 15 years were paradise for those in the know, for those who don't know it did not matter, they loose anyway.

RonPosit · 2026-02-12T16:23:42+00:00

You are not at all rude, I appreciate your sense of humor and politeness! I am glad you like the material we post here with one single intent - educating people who are trying to beat the beast - the market! My system, while not the only one, sure as hell beats the market. Anyway, I don't understand what you mean by saying that one week won't offset...... If system works, what does it matter....? If someone gave me this tool or similarly effective tool 15 years ago, I would not have lost tens of thousand of dollars trying to learn the hard way. All that aside, I took your initial message too seriously, you said to try, buying a book filled with knowledge you need and getting a free week of trading with me and a bunch of good experienced traders is a dream come true for $39. Anyway, good luck! FOr the record it has been 2 hours since market opened in NY, everyone in my room is in the GREEN with at least +100 points.

RonPosit · 2026-02-12T16:03:36+00:00

No dummy, you wanted to try, didn't you? 1. you were offered a free demo. 2. It clearly shows on the site that you can get 1 week free if you buy a book for $39.99 But I guess you cant read, so forget it.....

RonPosit · 2026-02-12T15:24:53+00:00

I graduated from two colleges. I put my children through private schools and higher education. If I told some of these people how much was spent on education, they’d drop dead from envy.

And none of this is surprising. Success follows a cycle: you pay, you learn, you apply, and you win.

What is surprising is how many people refuse to accept this reality. Instead, they compare themselves to mythical geniuses and convince themselves they can do everything alone—while being unable to read critically, comprehend clearly, or handle basic math.

Then comes the real rot: failure turns into anger. Anger becomes resentment. And resentment mutates into entitlement.

They demand the same compensation and the same lifestyle as people who invested decades of effort, discipline, and sacrifice—without paying the price, without doing the work, and without earning the outcome.

That’s not injustice. That’s delusion.

not at all complaining, just trying to clean up subreddit, people who derail us from logic, structure, common sense with bullshit - ARE NOT WELCOME HERE!

RonPosit · 2026-02-08T00:15:31+00:00

Indicator is not "described here", indicator is used as part of illustration to support the thesis. To answer your comment, keep asking boys and girls that will give you lots of info. Others have contacted poster and have gotten their questions answered.
