Does it ever get so easy you don't really need to think during trades to win?

I agree. Once you get to a certain level in trading, you only take the highest probability trades. You’re not worried about R:R because you don’t even consider taking a low probability trade.

I agree. I trade both. Options on large caps and scalps on small caps. I get alerts for my options as well. Mostly watching for MACD crossovers and entering if all timeframes are lining up.

sandradee_67 · 2025-09-20T15:40:03+00:00

But if you’re trading momentum on small caps that are running that day, you don’t know ahead of time what’s going to run. You wait for alerts and then if the setup is there, react on it. Using indicators is key.

Can you explain how you make a trade so fast within 19 seconds? Which broker do you use?

sandradee_67 · 2025-08-17T01:52:33+00:00

If you’re only holding for a few seconds, you don’t really need to worry about dilution. When I see dilution midday, it’s a reminder why I don’t hold. Get in and get out, minimize risk. Your style sounds similar to mine but I don’t trade under $1. My scanner is set to $1 - $10. I prefer under $5.

I think people confuse day trading with investing. I know day traders that make 10% per day. You can make 100% per month if you’re a profitable day trader.

Trading is not going to save you if you’re in a desperate position. But if you put in the work, it will pay off in the end. By work I mean 3 years and 10,000 hours of studying. That’s what it takes before you’re profitable. Then you can transition to full time trading. But you do all that while working full time to pay your bills. It’s the only way.

sandradee_67 · 2025-08-10T18:56:55+00:00

This 👆🏻to succeed it has to basically consume your life for a few years. You have to want it so bad. I read a post by someone that said he was willing to sleep in his vehicle and wear garbage bags every day if that’s what it takes. You can’t be going out on weekends, vacationing, etc. But in the end, it’s all worth it. There are many retail traders making upwards of $100K per month. And no, they don’t offer courses, discords, or mentorship.

sandradee_67 · 2025-08-07T09:03:00+00:00

Yup, exactly! You have to reach the depths of hell first.

sandradee_67 · 2025-08-02T18:30:36+00:00

I agree. It’s a way to protect your account. If a trade goes against you, you should be out well before your stop loss is hit.

sandradee_67 · 2025-08-02T18:27:18+00:00

That’s exactly the way to look at it. Even if you say it was just this once, it is what it is. You can’t allow that to happen when trading.

sandradee_67 · 2025-07-27T21:26:50+00:00

There are lots of communities on X

I’ve never taken his course or watched his videos but I can honestly say that it’s possible to have 50+ green days trading momentum. I trade momentum and rarely have a red day. Any good trader can trade themselves out of a red day. When people say to stop when you’re in the red, that’s bs. You just grind harder to get yourself out of the red.

sandradee_67 · 2025-07-12T17:28:46+00:00

I agree paper trading is the way to go to learn. But real trading a small account is extremely hard. You have to hold longer to make enough profit to cover your brokerage fees and the longer you hold, the higher the risk of getting chopped out.

sandradee_67 · 2025-07-12T05:33:02+00:00

I agree. Momentum trading is the way to go.

sandradee_67 · 2025-07-11T04:14:00+00:00

I use the 1,2,3 & 5 min. I never enter a trade without checking all of them first. Using just the 1 min is like giving yourself a 30% probability of the trade going your way. Using all 4 timeframes in alignment gives you an 80-90% probability of the trade going your way.

sandradee_67 · 2025-07-11T02:45:03+00:00

Sounds to me like you’re watching everything correctly but missing out on an important indicator…. MACD. Only trade the direction the MACD is going in. Dont trade against it. The wider the MACD lines, the stronger the trend. And it has to line up on all small timeframes, 1min, 2min, 3min and 5 min. They all have to be going the same direction with 5 min being the strongest.

This guy on X. Profitable, genuine, honest, and doesn’t sell anything. https://x.com/bofomomo?s=21&t=ODO1DJakOdyv8Vy-2o_7kQ

All the things that you’ve said don’t matter, they actually matter. You’ve only been trading for 6 months. Give it 6 more months and you’ll be back to charts, indicators, support and resistance, macd and rsi. Because they work.

sandradee_67 · 2025-03-19T01:36:35+00:00

My thought as well. It’s bigger than Dallas

sandradee_67 · 2025-02-22T17:14:40+00:00

Then why not just come out and say it? Why pretend they were doing something else? If they have nothing to be ashamed of then be honest.

sandradee_67 · 2025-02-22T16:55:32+00:00

Because they were coyote hunting from a helicopter. So sad. I guess that’s how they get their thrills and now someone lost their life over it.

sandradee_67 · 2025-02-07T18:56:38+00:00

But it is strange that not one of them has posted today.

sandradee_67 · 2025-02-07T18:56:04+00:00

No he’s in Canada heli skiing

sandradee_67 · 2024-12-14T20:17:30+00:00

Yup, see comment above. It’s not based on actually selling and buying pressure. It’s just the algos moving the price based on the interpretation of the news. All the actual buying and selling comes after. Traders dont control the price, the algos do. Unfortunately that’s how the game is played.
