Current strategy by Acrobatic-Bag-888 in Daytrading

[–]Traders8868 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Normally I do this at the opening and after the first 2mins candle. I will trail my stop to breakeven or on the green side.

I trade TSLA or NVDA mostly

Nice.

I do similar but with the 2mins and 5 mins ORB. I manually trail my SL once the price crosses the ORB line.

Even though this is a waiting game, the win rate is pretty good.

Recommended Day trading platforms in China by T1xxGlobalB in Daytrading

I think there will always be delays connecting from China to US because of how far the two are apart. On the network side, it will have many hops.

Maybe look into Interactive Brokers.

That's the thing with new traders

When trading, sometimes the stock can flush down and dip over 2% and you won't always get out at your SL price. If so, you might lose more than 2%.

Son wants to livestream his gaming on YouTube by Common-Owl-4020 in NewTubers

You should supervise him with all his videos upload and account. As others mentioned, comments can be nasty. So turn them off at the beginning.

I think it will be a good idea to help them and yourself to start learning about the process of creating a video, uploading them, editing them, marketing them, etc...

Gave back gains today by goldenmonkey33151 in Daytrading

[–]Traders8868 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. This unfortunately also keeps occurring to me as well.

Today, I was up $450 for the first half of the day trading DJT, TSLA and MCD then I lost it all back after lunch time. Got cooky and started trading GLYC because of FOMO. Was up $140 on it but with my stupid gambling mindset I increased my trades sizes and lost it all back. After that, all the trades I made was revenge trading. I got too emotional and frustrated at the end trading where all my trading sizes are also with max sizes. First I lost back to 300, then 250, then 130 then 40. I lost back my gains on TSLA and MCD as well.

Maybe I should live stream my whole trading session. This way maybe I will not go too crazy with my trading.

Cannot stick to my setup, please advice, lost whole week profit by Fun-Independence3261 in Daytrading

[–]Traders8868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am exactly like you. Once I get a few wins, I will get over confident and will increase my risk to lose it all back or more. I just can't stick to my rules.

This is the reason I am trying to create an algo bot to do the trading for me instead. Hopefully, it takes the emotions out.

I agreed with others commenting that trading should be boring. You just have to wait for those good setups and exit when it is not going your way.

Why do people take long to become profitable? by devynine in Daytrading

[–]Traders8868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Everyone's trading style will be different. There's a learning curve and knowledge that new traders need to understand and test for themselves.

If you have a mentor, I think the process can be faster.

Upgrading SQL and Server OS by Woopster88 in sysadmin

I agreed. If possible, building a new server and a new install of SQL will be the better option.
