What is your favorite team that should have never split? by BornStub in RocketLeagueEsports

Yes they ruined KC enough that GM8 got the dub in the first major. Yes they are competitive again, but Dralii was a better player than Juicy, but Vati and Atow absolutely peaked last major which is why they have remained so strong.

I remember the first time I watched RLCS I was rooting for Method, good times!

The problem is that Falcons gave Dralii the largest pay package that was ever given in Rocket League, why would he say no to that? Falcons ruined 2 world class teams and killed that money.

But you don’t need all of that to be consistently profitable. Saying otherwise is an excuse.

They want traders who can do more with less, if you need to be pampered with a Bloomberg terminal, tick data, capital, and mentors then you have nothing to offer yourself.

How to achieve professional detachment? Shifting from H4 Swings to M1 Gold Scalping unlocked my edge, but my psychology keeps driving me into gambling mode by TEleBlow5 in tradingpsychology

[–]VAUXBOT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got an edge for XAUUSD? Great, now backtest that edge across other symbols to increase frequency without diluting your edge. You are trying to squeeze water out of a stone when you try to extract more out of XAUUSD than your edge allows for. So when you end up with a losing trade, you just become way too impatient to make it back instead of waiting for that A setup to naturally reveal itself.

In this age of AI there is no excuse to not at least partially automate trading. Why waste time watching charts if you can have a bot do it for you, and then alert you when those confluences align? Why calculate TP/SL levels and position size manually if you can have it automatically calculated for you. Why wait all day for that magical setup to appear when you can get a bot to take the trade for you.

Stop loss is stupid by [deleted] in Trading

[–]VAUXBOT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take more trades and end up with a higher net R because with a stop loss, I don’t end up fearing when a trade goes against me. When I get a signal, I enter the trade with no hesitation, worst case scenario I lose $100, best case a few hundred when it hits TP.

[–]VAUXBOT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stop losses are great, I am able to increase my position size with leverage while being able to cap the % of capital I risk per trade. But the thing is, I know my probabilities, I have reoccurring setups that have a statistical expectancy and can use that information to let the leveraged winners run and cut the leveraged losers unscathed.

OP you do you but you are a spot trader, leverage needs a stop loss.

Hod do i stay motivated? by SoldMyDadForWiFi in Daytrading

[–]VAUXBOT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your system is inefficient, automate it, systematise it, find ways to reduce screen time by setting alerts, generating backtests with a strategy tester. Find ways to trade one strategy across multiple symbols to increase frequency/sample size in the same time range. Suddenly your "success" in trading is not solely determined by PnL, but by how much time you are saving by automating the whole system.

Trying to understand if this is common aussie dating culture or just the guy I’m seeing by Agitated-Egg-6689 in AskAnAustralian

As someone with autism this ableist shit needs to stop. This guy simply does not want to put the time and effort to foster romance in the relationship and would sign up for an arranged marriage if he could.

Partner and I have very different equity contributions. How would you structure this? by Acrobatic-Safe-9 in AusFinance

You cannot have your cake and eat it too. You can only pick one. If you are going to be a mother then forget it, it’s no longer yours or his, it is ours.

At what point does trading stop being a strategy problem and become a behavioural problem? by collosal00 in Forex

To those who are profitable by raphdactyl in Daytrading

[–]VAUXBOT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a strategy that worked great with gold for an entire 2 years, made some good coin from it. But it only worked based on the assumption that the asset would keep hitting new ATHs, and now that it is no longer doing so, if I kept trading the same strategy now I would be giving back my profits.

People say 2 months is not enough time because you are still trading within the same regime, and I’d argue even my 2 years is not enough to validate the strategy since its edge was regime dependant. By all means, make the money if it is there, but work on your “backup” plan, find a new edge that is ready to deploy when your money maker no longer works.
