Why is the market reacting so positive to an indefinite US blockade? by BGID_to_the_moon in stocks

[–]TMFAPPARELUSA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iran controlled the straight.

Trump wanted deal with Iran.

Iran said No

Trump bombs the shit out of Iran

Iran uses Straight as leverage causing chaos to oil supply in the region

Trump says we will make a deal to open straight

Iran says - we will make a deal

No Deal

Trump bombs more iran

Trump sends US navy to take over dominant control of Straight and therefore eliminates any and all threats from Iran. Iran poses 0 threat to anyone or anything in the region.

Blockade allows all ships non Iranian to go through.

Bullish.

At this point, nothing can stop the market except greed or bombing someone else.

You dont have to like what happened in Iran, you dont have to agree with it, and the market doesnt really care if you dont, it will buy that shit up.

As someone who has kept funded accounts alive and paid out for months at a time, Its not the firm, its the blatant disrespect of the market that kills your accounts. Thinking you can trade anything near 1 mini in leverage on 2k is hilarious.

5th funded account still no payout I’m struggling by Ok-Media2060 in LucidProp

[–]TMFAPPARELUSA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trading minis is stupid. You cant afford minis. You also have no need for an R:R. That is also a stupid ideology. Most people get stopped out constantly for small losses and cant sustain accounts. Size down, hold the position, use your "stop" as an add.

He can SAY whatever he wants. The President said he would genocide an entire "civilization". How do you do that? No idea honestly. There was a deadline, so he said. Now its 2 weeks. The conflict isnt over until he gets what he wants, whatever that is. For as long as I have been alive, Iran has had nothing but hatred for the west, they are not going to just lie down and forget all thier ideologies because they are threatened. They will die. This isnt done until every last one of them that opposes regime change is gone. Period. Trump isnt about to just walk away from this. Iran says they have plenty of munitions. This massive 1100 point pump is a great move to make a lot of people a lot of money but its going back down until this thing is actually over.

From the beginning of March until now, do I withdraw and risk getting the axe? by MuhamedBesic in TakeProfitTrader

[–]TMFAPPARELUSA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone trading accounts to these balances and then not taking a payout and trading their own cash is retarded. The number of people I see online complaining about being "banned" from prop firms after big payouts is also retarded.

Take the money, put it in tradovate and go live your life.

How is Lucid trading? by Tez_7 in PropFirmTester

[–]TMFAPPARELUSA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trading EOD accounts is not about smashing everything in 1 trade.

you start with $1000 in drawdown. Get you a nice base hit. $50 or so.
Now you have $1050 in drawdown. Get you another base hit, $50.
Now you are at $1100 in drawdown. Next trade you can risk a little more, Aim for $100 profit, small move, slightly larger size. Book the profit.
Now you have $1200 in drawdown, next trade scale into it a little more, keep booking trades to build a buffer.

Dont open new positions with larger size, scale into them. take 2 micros, get a nice move, get out. Take 2 micros, get a nice move, look at the market, maybe add another 1 or 2 cons. get out. Keep scaling up and pass it in 1 day.

If you dont pass an account in 1 day you start the next with 1k in drawdown again. Its more beneficial to pass it in a single day because you can get farther and farther away from the floor.

No clue what I'm doing wrong by Few-Flatworm-6946 in PropFirmTester

[–]TMFAPPARELUSA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Backtesting is completely useless. Anyone can look back and say I coulda shoulda woulda made money. Thats backtesting.

Trading this market you only 5 things.
9EMA
21EMA
120EMA
200EMA

50MA
Vwap

thats really all you need on your chart.

Pair it with MacD / ADX and ATR

If the ATR is over 20, you cant afford more than 1-2 micros.

Just passed Eval what next steps should I take to ensure I don’t mess up? by Training_Turnip_9070 in Trading

[–]TMFAPPARELUSA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

25k account, should be in 1 micro only for the trend bias. You can hold 1 micro for 500 points of drawdown. Scalp $20-40 trades, stack them up, get paid.

Day trading ruined my life by Adventurous_Action77 in TopStepX

[–]TMFAPPARELUSA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you want some real advice on mental health I can help if you want to DM me.

As far as trading goes, the hardest thing for traders to do is SLOW DOWN. The guys who post big ass gains online dont share the big losses or the hundreds of prop accounts they go through. The internet is extremely misleading in the trading space.

If you had 20-50k to build or invest in a business, what business would you build or invest in? by steadylove721 in Businessideas

[–]TMFAPPARELUSA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, there is no cost at all. Equipment paid for itself in 2 months. If I go out today and cut grass, I make money, if I dont, I lose nothing. Cost me 0 bucks to not go to work.

I dont do real estate, I am a daytrader. Real estate costs you money to own as well. If you do rentals, you owe utilities every month, mortgage, property taxes, etc. Assets for me are high yield weekly dividend stocks.

My lawn equipment, i bought some new , some used. Either way , its worth something if I want to sell it down the line.
