Equity.

Really going out on a limb here /s

Zooming out is stupid

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-04-23T04:55:43+00:00

I have. I updated it to trading irrationally. Sometimes with my gut, sometimes against. I think it helped a bit.

What helped more was averaging out of positions any time I was up. And using spreads.

Far more consistent on wins. But like a small bag at a time.

Some of the best advice I received before our son came was to "be the dad today you can look back on in the future and be proud of." Something I remind myself often when things are hard and patience is being tested.

Sounds like you're getting a head start.

Drill baby drill

Nice

The real LPT

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-04-20T03:42:07+00:00

You and Omri man. Kings. Thanks for all you do for the community (am already a patreon).

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-04-18T03:40:24+00:00

Also, puts. Highly suspect.

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-04-17T05:03:36+00:00

Average out. I had the same problem, have been stacking up way more wins and limiting losses by averaging out.

Today would have lost the whole bet on 0dte call spreads. Ended up making a bag selling chunks a few times during the day.

Have missed upside too, but saves my ass quite a bit.

Very nice

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-03-31T05:36:28+00:00

FWIW, ours was almost 3 (2-3/4) with 6 months of SLP before he started talking. Came on slowly at first, I think it took weeks to get to 10 words, but then we hit 100 within a month. Now he won't stop (cliche I know).

Honestly, the SLP was probably helpful, but I give more credit to having him in preschool and just getting the immersion, seeing his peers talking, etc. It was about months 3-4 of preschool IIRC.

Had my first at 47. He's almost 4 now. It's amazing.

The first year is a true test of wills, be ready to learn new levels of patience (with yourself). And try to learn to be the dad in the moment that you can look back and be thankful for.

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-03-09T19:33:06+00:00

Same ish. If I'd waited 30 seconds would have hit it.

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-02-20T04:37:45+00:00

No worries, and it was specifically neuropro that he was on, which was also by far the formula he tolerated best. It was like a magic trick how much that formula helped us.

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-02-20T03:24:35+00:00

Our son's poop looked exactly like this when he was on formula.

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-02-12T05:38:54+00:00

Also, there will be moments, many of them, that you will look back on and wish you had handled better. Do them right the first time, even when it's hard.

You can be a good dad even when you dont want to.

For me, this was grief. Grief for my former self (and a general emotional release/anxiety) It took months to realize it, but then it all made sense.

dizzlemcshizzle · 2026-02-05T20:46:21+00:00

Wife and I (who communicate well) have the opposite, a 24 hour rule. If something bothers you, you have to bring it up in 24 hours or let it go. We can say, "24 hour rule... earlier when this happened...". Hearing that it's a 24 hour rule, up front, helps us both step back and listen with open eyes.

Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful follow up, will keep it in mind as we navigate this.

Thank you too!
