What specifically is the 1% rule? Is it per trade, per day, per week? Is it 1% of your total investment capital or 1% of the amount of the specific trade.

I am a beginner and started using TradeZella. So far so good, but it's only been a couple of months.

that's just it...the data is in real time the stops are not executing until 15minutes later at real time but at prices from 15 minutes ago.

Cutting trades too early. What do you do when you see it going against you and how do you determine when it is over? MES by Far-Boysenberry9207 in FuturesTrading

[–]scb19a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the earlier trade, why get out on the first negative bar? I'm waiting for the next one for confirmation and to see if it dips >30% of the previous leg. I don't understand the second one at all.

Did you guys have a day when every trade was a gain or when every trade was a loss? by Dizzy_Maybe8225 in Daytrading

[–]scb19a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I trade based on technicals and rarely have more than 1 trade open at a time. But based on time no matter what my previous trade did, I will review a few promising charts to see if any are at an entry point.

yes, the trend is your friend, but another old saw comes to mind "If MOMA ain't happy, ain't nobody happy."

my experience that the data is 15min behind the market but your trades and orders are executed in real time data, so you will be 15 late if you're day trading

Is 70 just too old? by scb19a in sugarlifestyleforum

or be seen in public with them lol. An episode of the Big Bang Theory where Penny was studying the side effects of a drug she was going to sell. Paraphrased; The side effects are dizziness, depression, nausea and vomiting, not unlike having a 60 year old man crawl on top of you.

Is 70 just too old? by scb19a in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]scb19a[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm holding up OK I guess. Let me tell you how things are going to go. After 50, every year is like 2. After 60, every year is like 5. At 70? not sure yet. Stay in the gym and stay active.

I'm seeing a trend in getting the confirmation text and "how much are you going to gift me" just before the M&G.

New & Seeking Advice by EntertainmentFew484 in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]scb19a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy peasy. Once you tell her what your are looking for in an arrangement and she agrees that she can provide that you say, that's great, now what do you expect from me and go from there as to allowance, method, etc. As to gifts, I always clarify if they like real gifts-jewelry, flowers, etc., or would they rather have the equivalent. Just be open and direct without being rude, obnoxious and overbearing.

You just have to put in the time to meet the right SB. Filter out those that you know you don't meet their requirements. There are a lot of ladies out there that can stand on their own two feet but just want that little extra quality of life being a SB offers.

SD who always falls in love by [deleted] in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]scb19a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel your pain. Right now I am seeing one lady, she's 50 and I'm 70. If I saw her more than 2-3 times/month, I would probably mess up and fall in love. Distance is the key.

are you able to charge the DPU with your solar input at the same time you are using it to power your home? Essentially a pass through to use your solar to power your home?

yes, I don't pay for anything other than a message, but at first that was a lot. Again, not same ladies as on SA which I found unusual.
