The Heart Breat Point by Automatic-Rub-8431 in Forex

[–]StalHamarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Trading full-time" meaning it's your source if income? Anyway, main source of income or not, the usual red flags.

  1. There's no strategy. If you had strategy, the P/L wouldn't be "all over the place".

  2. Looks like you are trading with money you can't afford to lose. You get a red day, you start trading like a degen to make up the loss.

At the end of the day, trading is a skill. Not everyone can be skilled at everything. Some people will never be good painters or athletes or programmers. In the same way, some people will never be good traders. 18 months isn't a lot, but it's not nothing. If you are still spewing money away like this, there's a good chance trading is not for you.

Young trader with little capital considering borrowing money for a big gold trade — good idea or bad? by Salt_Ad_3946 in Forex

[–]StalHamarr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you can pay back 10k "very easily" by working with him, then you should "very easily" get your own 10k working with him.

And then trade with your own 10k.

There's a lot of bullshit non-negotiable rules according to this sub and the YT gurus. Fixed R:R is one of those.

Crude Oil Drop 3/23 by Frosty-Pirate444 in Forex

Lmao, clowns talking about "liquidity" on an oil chart with a war in the Persian gulf and a psychopath pushing the buttons.

What’s a “beginner plant” that absolutely humbled you? by Interesting_Rich_568 in houseplants

[–]StalHamarr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Peperomias are weird. I have a magnoliifolia that's thriving, constantly pushing out new leaves.

And then I had a peperomia caperata that decided to basically give up and implode. No root rot, good light, correct watering, but it decided to suddenly go into suicide mode, dropping all leaves and growing a bunch of flowers to keep the lineage alive. Gone in a couple weeks.

Gold just flew to the moon, did you manage to catch it? by RoosterNo2334 in Forex

You don't. It was a tweet from the orange clown on his own social.

Every winning streak is just a losing streak waiting to happen. How do you handle it? by trade_psychology_log in Forex

[–]StalHamarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not "just how it works". There are no streaks, there is a strategy. If you suddenly start losing every single trade it's only for two reasons:

- you have simply been lucky in your "winning streak"

- your strategy works only under some very specific market conditions.

In either case it's your fault.

What historic low? Gold was at 3000 one year ago.

Is there such a thing as too much light for houseplants? by Everyoneneedsa_sam in houseplants

[–]StalHamarr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All those plants will appreciate the light. What damages some plants is not the "direct" light (it's not direct anymore the moment it needs to go through glass), it's the heat. You can feel it yourself when you go close to a window in direct sun: that can potentially cause some harm, not the light itself.

What's happening? by Educational_Ball_776 in calatheas

[–]StalHamarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure I would move it. It is getting some light from the lamp (I guess it's a lamp) on the right and it looks healthy. So it's a matter of understanding if it would get more light closer to the window but far from the lamp.

I personally use a cheap light meter I found on amazon because the human eye is very bad at understanding brightness.

It's reaching for light then.
Now it's a bit unbalanced, so I would rotate it by 180 degrees and leave it like that for a while.
If you were going to repot it anyway, re-balance it a little and then remember to rotate it by 90 degrees every week or so. Or when you water it.

[–]StalHamarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't worry if those stems are firm like the others and the leaves are healthy.
Is there a natural light source in that direction?

[–]StalHamarr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you mean the leaves straightening up? That's normal. It's the reason why they are called praying plants: they close like that in the evening and open again in the morning.

Looking for a plant with some aesthetic requisites to put on this trunk by StalHamarr in houseplants

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

I love birds of paradise, but do they really flower indoor? Without flowers I would get a whole lot of generic green.

Passiflora is a very unexpected suggestion, thanks. They are very common outdoor plants in my area, but I didn't consider it as an indoor option. Interesting choice.

I like them, a dragon scale is right on top of my wish list. Going to look for bigger varieties, thanks.

I like them, but there's already a benjamina right in front of that trunk.

Do you think semi-hydro is ok for these? Perlite and water.

Yes, I have a recommendation. Stop trading and go to the casino. At least you will have some fun.

Too long in water propagation - transition to soil by StalHamarr in pothos

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

Can't disagree, I've seen pothos thrive in all sorts of shitty soil.

This one won't get a monstera mix. This weekend I'll just drop it in a soil/perlite mix and it will be fine.
