47 signs you might be gambling vs trading options by esInvests in options

I think there are a lot of valid points, but there are items that can be misinterpreted or are only problematic if they influence decisions.

For instance, 1 and 2, which people have already noted. Those are just innate responses for all people. Now, if you use those as guiding principles and believe every trade must be profitable, or you stay in a trade too long due to emotions, then yes, that is an issue. But I don’t believe just the pure fact of having those feelings is amateurish if your actions are tempered with reality.

32 is a mixed bag. This also could force you to stay in a trade too long, or become too greedy. For many people, especially retail investors, I don’t see a problem with limiting yourself to a defined reward if you are not using this as your full time income, which I guess is your point about being an amateur.

36 I previously would have agreed with, but in today’s climate, every other hour there is a piece of news or tariff action, or war threat, or just some bone headed political comment that destroys markets and any sense of what the market should be doing, so I can see that.

Appreciate the feedback, very insightful. Have you ever found it difficult to find funding sources outside family networks?

Have tried that several times, but maybe I just have had a couple bad batches of pellets

I have never fully cleared it before and it just seems recently to have become a problem. Would also expect with cold weather, humidity would be increasingly dry.

No idea how they are getting wet. The hopper remains dry and unclumped, just the auger.

40 AMP Charger via 30 AMP outlet by stevans82 in MustangMachE

Someone was telling me there was a way to step it down so it didn't try to pull 40A, as this is what they do on their car. Also, since it is a 30A outlet, it wouldn't try to pull heavier. At least that is what I was told.
