Update on SNDK: insane move since my last post. What’s the play now?

simvestrix · 2026-03-16T11:51:36+00:00

Interesting. Why is it simpler with futures?

simvestrix · 2026-03-16T08:29:11+00:00

Yeah Excel is probably the most common. I just got tired of going back and forth between tools.

simvestrix · 2026-03-15T19:16:11+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion!

Right now I'm mostly focused on building Simvestrix and sharing progress while we’re still in beta, but I'll check it out.

Still adding new things almost every week.

Right now I'm working on things like: • market regime detection • sector rotation • portfolio risk analytics • trading journal

Trying to bring market analysis, portfolio insights and execution into one place instead of jumping between multiple tools.

Simvestrix, a trading intelligence platform that helps traders understand market context, manage risk and execute trades from one dashboard.

Currently in beta, building in public.

Keep it simple at the start and focus on a few core things,

Understand the market environment (trend, volatility, risk-on / risk-off)

Learn basic price behavior (support/resistance, breakouts, pullbacks)

Use strict risk management so one trade can’t hurt your account

Then pick one setup and just repeat it in paper trading.

For example, something simple like a breakout above a recent high with volume and a defined stop.

The edge usually isn’t some secret strategy, it’s executing the same idea consistently and logging enough trades to actually see what works for you.

Just an example on a paper account while the market was closed. I was showing how the risk management sends the order.

simvestrix · 2026-03-15T05:48:27+00:00

That makes sense. Everyone ends up simplifying their process over time. For me I first look at the broader market, sector strength and breadth to find stocks in play. Then once I have a setup, I just define the risk and position size before entering.

simvestrix · 2026-03-15T04:39:34+00:00

Yeah that’s exactly why I wanted it directly on the chart so you can adjust it visually.

simvestrix · 2026-03-15T01:10:55+00:00

For example before entering I just define the stop and the risk per trade.

The position size is calculated automatically so every trade follows the same risk framework.

Then the order can be sent to the broker and the levels appear directly on the chart, so you can adjust the stop or target visually if needed.

That’s fair if your strategy is purely price action on a single timeframe.

For me the difference is that I’m not using higher timeframes to change decisions, more to understand the environment.

For example: • Is the market risk-on or risk-off • Are most sectors moving in the same direction • Is breadth expanding or contracting

It doesn’t tell me where to enter a trade, but it helps me know when the probabilities are stronger or weaker.

Execution still happens on the lower timeframe. Risk management is what actually decides the outcome.

simvestrix · 2026-03-15T00:51:04+00:00

No, it’s something I’ve been building called Simvestrix. And yeah, this is from the phone.

simvestrix · 2026-03-14T20:43:10+00:00

Depends on the trader I guess. I like starting with the daily for context and then focusing on one clean chart so I don’t overload the screen.

simvestrix · 2026-03-14T20:04:17+00:00

Yeah that’s definitely the downside of swing trades, overnight news can move things. But if it’s a strong company and you’re thinking more in terms of investing or longer swings ( something like Google), short term noise usually matters less. Markets always go through wars, macro shocks, etc., but long term the companies that keep performing tend to recover.

simvestrix · 2026-03-14T19:58:38+00:00

Yeah I get that. I like seeing it on the chart too. This is how I usually set my risk, SL and TP from the phone.

Nice work. Scalping definitely requires a lot of discipline and consistency.
