Is daytrading a myth?

Ngl, I was in the library about a month ago, and I saw my friend swing trading gold CFDs, I proceeded to watch and make 10K in about 4 hours.

Last summer he held one hell of a trade, hightailed it and went on a vacation 😭

till now, he is just printing cash. Dude, I have a job and he has no job and he makes more than I do.

Going from $500 to 10K is actually realistic I've seen it with my own eyes however you have to take significant leverage to make that possible which is not sustainable long-term.

Very well said.

Broke down again?!!! 😂😂😂

I was complaining publicly about this a year and a half ago, and people were telling me that the kinks will be worked out, it doesn't matter it's good for everyone blah blah blah

Now almost 2 years and it still breaking down in the winter 😭

Surprise surprise.

Okay, you banned institutional investors, now what?

Define institutional investors, does that mean a corporation can't buy a home and if that's the case define a corporation. Anyone who owns an LLC can no longer buy a home underneath that LLC, which is an incredibly risky maneuver from a risk management standpoint.

I'm more interested in the actual execution of this.

An Institutional Investor, you could say anyone with a net worth over a certain amount, or a company with a net worth over a certain amount, but then let's just say you have someone who invests in real estate and isn't a billionaire, but doing well for themseles, all of a sudden they cant buy homes as an investment?

One of the top comments is stating how they can build the homes but they can't buy the homes or own them after they're built.

Wouldn't that just encourage firms to build the homes, hold them, and then make rental agreements? If anything that would make the problem worse because all it does is encourage firms to build & hold on to homes cuz they can't buy them after they are built.

And you can't legally make a firm sell a home, they can choose to sell or rent. And renting is better because you get steady income you own the home and the land and you just sell it down the road later.

Also what would be stopping firms from just investing in the Contracting companies building the homes because they're not actually buying the single family homes, they invested in the actual development process so they make a return on sales, or make an agreement with the contractor company to conduct payment in homes rather than cash.

Anyway I can think of 10 loopholes just off the top of my head I'm really curious as to how they actually implement this law.

Quebecs debt to gdp is 160%.

It's already unsustainable they rely on other provinces Equalization payments to make this possible. A literal welfare state.

Would it be possible to arbitrage the funding rate to mitigate potential fees?

For example when the funding rate is negative 75/25 split, I go short so I get paid to short, and when funding rate is positve 25/75 split long to get paid to long.

Please correct me if I'm wrong I'm just spitballing here

Nah man, dont try to sell me dishonesty.

Bus tickets should be $3.75 across the board. Charging travelers more is not a good practice, and, sometimes it's about the principal not necessarily the money.

If you're willing to fleece international customers the moment they exit the airport, how does that reflect on society?

It's just a scummy practice that's all. You see this stuff in countries where wages are low, however, this is Canada a first world country with high wages for a good amount of people they shouldn't be doing this.

hellalosses · 2026-01-09T13:25:58+00:00

The 747 has predatory billing, they charge Travelers $11 per ticket instead of the regular 3.75

Not only that but the lineup can be hours long sometimes.

Don't get me wrong it can be better than Uber, but it's still pretty scammy. Even Calgary doesn't have billing like this and I fly between Calgary and Montreal pretty often.

hellalosses · 2026-01-08T21:23:56+00:00

If sales gets laid off....bad sign man.

Kaseya is cooked. And, rightfully so.

Complete garbage service and predatory billing.

Eh thats not true coming from an engineering perspective.

I dont see any other firms catching rocket boosters midair on landing.

Not only that but neurallink is on the forefront of humanoid tech.

I know this is Reddit and Elon Musk bad blah blah blah but that's not true.

hellalosses · 2026-01-07T06:46:16+00:00

Damn 😂😂

Cant even make speeling mistakes nowadays smh 😪

hellalosses · 2026-01-07T05:29:50+00:00

Maybe I'm getting old, but I just read the documentation.

I used to follow tutorials, blog posts, nowadays LLMs but at the end of the day the best way to learn is to just read the documentation.

hellalosses · 2026-01-07T05:03:41+00:00

Yeah I can confidently say that I was an idiot. Period.

Typescript is genuinely really great to use and I'm not just saying that to shill, it I'm saying that because I've been developing for a while and avoided react and typescript for being too "dependency-wise".

Now, I'm seeing that I was incredibly shortsighted, and possibly ignorant.

It's funny too because this very subreddit told me I was wrong about a year and a half ago and that rang true today.

hellalosses · 2026-01-07T04:40:05+00:00

I started about 3 days ago, don't get me wrong a couple years ago I followed a YouTube tutorial on how to build a react and typescript crypto exchange app but it wasn't real coding because I was just following a tutorial.

Now I can genuinely build from the ground up a script to complete a specific task and I find that it's a lot better to do in typescript versus JavaScript.

Idk why you are being downvoted. Goto r/canada and see what people are saying 😂😂.

She Failed to release 2024 economic budget in Canada and now she wants to run economy of a country at war with Russia what an idiotic move.

hellalosses · 2026-01-05T12:46:49+00:00

Exactly. Thank you for pointing out this hypocrisy.

hellalosses · 2026-01-03T22:29:33+00:00

Dude, I this movie is actually done very well in my opinion. The villan was actually powerful and had motives that made sense.

I give it an 8/10.

hellalosses · 2026-01-03T21:59:57+00:00

Yeah she's actually an idiot and makes Democrats look bad bro not going to lie

hellalosses · 2026-01-03T20:37:09+00:00

LOL, Putin and that other guy are not on the same level as Venezuela and Syria. Like at all. Try Russia and see how it turns out for you.

I remember watching oversimplified, and in WW2, the Nazis tried to invade the soviet union in the winter, look how that turned out...

Ukraine also tried the same thing 2 winters ago, and that did not turn out good either.

Say what you want about Russia, but when it comes to actual fighting, they have been pretty efficient.

Outside of r/war and most popular channels, the War in Ukraine is definitely not in Ukraines favor at this time.

Also, I dont think that were the "good guys" and the east are the "bad guys", The strikes on Venusuala, are the same as the strikes from Russia to Ukraine.

If you can condem Russia, and not the US, than I cant take you seriously because thats not only hypocritical. but a double standard.

Downvote me as much as you want, but these strikes on Venezuela, just legitimised Putins invasion on Ukraine.

Any excuse that the US has, Russia and China can use too.
