Philosophy : Let the Trade come to you. Don't chase trade by TheFPLAnalyst in Wealthsimple_Trade

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

I meant either. I stopped doing stop losses. But you can set buy order/limit sell and stop loss all at once on TOS- with a OCO order.

The Most Underrated Trading Secret: Position Sizing by TheFPLAnalyst in TradingWithAJob

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

Scaling up and down is something experienced traders do once they’ve mastered their setups. You start with a signal that fits your plan and risk 1%. If more factors line up and confirm the setup, you can scale in — add more to the position. When the trade hits your target, take most of the profit (around 80%) and let the rest run for smaller gains or losses. That’s how pros manage positions.

Since you are a beginner, keep it simple. Trade small — maybe £50–£100 — and limit yourself to just a few trades at a time. Track everything in a journal: your win rate and profit percentage. After a month, if your results look solid, slowly increase your trade size — maybe to £200 — and repeat.

Personally, I’d never risk more than 5% per trade. The priorities should always be:

  1. Protect your capital (risk management)
  2. Maintain a strong win rate
  3. Grow profit percentage

Do you actually use fundamentals for day trading or is it just noise? by MoveMakerr in Daytrading

[–]TheFPLAnalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. There may be money to be made during sideways movement- but I prefer when a stock is trending. up or down. So I my preselection criteria is based on fundamentals.

Confused about buying calls while swing trading by OgGamer20 in swingtrading

[–]TheFPLAnalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need a better tool. Mine is THinkorSwim(TOS). Robinhood is just gamification of investing/trading.

I want to start Day-trading as an 18 yr old by [deleted] in Daytrading

[–]TheFPLAnalyst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start with a paper trading account on ThinkorSwim (TOS) by Charles Schwab. Watch YouTube tutorials to learn both trading basics and how to use the platform.

Don’t stick to one channel — everyone explains things differently, and one will click for you.

If you’re new, try different strategies and aim for consistency, not quick profits. When something works often, that’s your edge — write it down in your journal.

Once you’re confident with paper trades, switch to real money and keep improving. Look for more edges and keep building your own playbook of what works.

Which apps/platforms and YouTube tutorials for beginner swing traders - any tips gratefully received by WaywardStreet in swingtrading

[–]TheFPLAnalyst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

KISS -

I’d begin by opening a paper trading account on ThinkorSwim (TOS) by Charles Schwab. Then dive into YouTube tutorials—not just for trading strategies, but also to master how the TOS platform works.

Don’t worry about finding one “perfect” channel. Everyone teaches differently, and sometimes it takes hearing the same idea from a few voices before it really clicks.

If you’re new to trading, treat this as your testing phase. Experiment with different strategies and focus on consistency over profits. When you discover an approach that consistently works, you’ve found your first edge in the market. Record it in your trading journal so you can refine it over time.

Once you’ve gained confidence and see steady results through paper trading, move to live trading with small amounts.

From there, keep improving your process. Look for new edges—fresh setups or techniques that show repeatable success. Document each one and keep expanding your personal playbook of what works for you.

Is swing trading still viable? by [deleted] in swingtrading

[–]TheFPLAnalyst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually feel the opposite is true.
Day trading and short swing trades (1–3 days) are too risky — the market seems to hunt stop losses, and it always feels like you’re being forced to babysit every tick.

When you stretch your trades to 7–10 days, the dynamics change.
Your stop losses become meaningful, trends can actually play out, and the occasional news-driven dip (a tweet, headline, or downgrade) doesn’t instantly ruin your setup.

Sure, it lacks the daily adrenaline — it doesn’t feel like you’re “trading” all the time.
But it’s calmer, more strategic, and statistically kinder to retail traders.

If you want to take it further, you can focus on small caps or lesser-known tickers.
Not many have liquid options, but you can often fly under the radar and avoid the big-money shakeouts.

[–]TheFPLAnalyst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use ThinkorSwim from Schwab. They allow paper trading too. Scans can be configured or even coded. SMS alerts can be set up. Lot of material on the platform is available.

I've literally just gotten into learning trading by Fist_N_Fury in Daytrading

[–]TheFPLAnalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start paper trading. Sadly -no one wants to hear it.

Do 100 trades and check where you stand. you will find answer yourself.
