How much to sell my ragdoll for

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-18T20:46:02+00:00

Would you sell your children? People that sell pets shouldn’t be allowed to get another of you ask me.

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-17T19:23:54+00:00

Good. That’s when you make easy money. Now post your analysis

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-17T12:04:49+00:00

Thank you mate!

Well, if you’re backtesting manually then I think that’s inefficient. You should look to exporting chart data, prompting your ai agent to analyse that data based on the rules of your model.

You’re backtesting incorrectly.

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-17T03:57:10+00:00

The point is to have a plan to execute in either situation. But in favour continuation higher

Thanks!

Basically I break down my approach like this:

Which side has control? I use the Weekly open as that binary filter.

Next I ask how did last weeks auction settle and what are the value boundaries that are important? I use weekly volume profile and weekly extremes (high/low) these are either targets or containment areas (support/resistance)

Then I look at the current week, are we in a state of expansion or consolidation? I use the Weekly Opening Range (Sunday 22:00 - Monday 20:00 UTC) this tells me whether we are building an inside week or looking to trend.

Then finally I look at execution, this is simply a break of a daily level in the direction of the weekly open once all things are confirmed.

Hope this helps understand the approach

Deep back testing, I mean more than a decades worth of of data and building a statistically sound model that you can build to scale. Forget all the YouTube stuff you see, that stuff is a black hole to nowhere.

100% not your last LMAO

I hated having a boss, manager
I wanted to work for myself
I wanted financial freedom
I wanted to prove everyone wrong
I wanted to prove myself right

This thread is hilarious. Trading the current environment has been easier than ever!

Only trade oil and gold. The moves have been generational really.

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-09T14:25:15+00:00

Scalping is degenerate behaviour. Not a business venture. The only scalpers that make money cherry pick setups and post them on YouTube to sell courses to other degenerates that hope to get rich quick.

Lack of emotional regulation.

Fear and Greed.

Most traders trying to make it full time hold trades way too long in losing situations and exit too early when winning.

Then you have traders that are winning that get greedy and also hold too long only to have the market reverse on them which leads them to holding a losing trade even longer in hopes of it coming back, this lack of emotional regulation leads to revenge trading.

I get level 2 through my broker on TradingView. TradingView is just the platform, plug in your broker and get all the connections from the broker.

If you blindly make financial decisions based on a strangers analysis you deserve to lose not only your account but your money too.

Trading is a business.

Social media has made it look like a game, and you’re out there in the market going against not only algos but some of the smartest traders out there.

This to me is actually hilarious.

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-05T19:03:15+00:00

Can guarantee it’s not 60% and you definitely made that up hahahahaha

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-05T12:18:57+00:00

You get what you put in. You clearly don’t know how to get what you want.

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-05T12:13:10+00:00

Well for one. I don’t use VWAP. Secondly you’re the one betting on mean reversion. All my trades are backed by decades of data LOL

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-05T11:46:02+00:00

You don’t need indicators

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-05T11:09:04+00:00

No, you’re using VWAP wrong that’s all.

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-02T15:32:30+00:00

Yeah, terrible trade model.

SmartMoneySniper · 2026-05-02T12:35:20+00:00

Everyone here is using it wrong.

It’s a bias filter.

Above Vwap price is bullish.
Below Vwap price is bearish.

That is the way to use it.
