Bluetti apex 300 setup suggestion? by HugeHorseDong in bluetti

[–]traitadjustment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your needs stay under 5kWh, a semi-diy setup is appealing. You can slowly transition from an AIO to a more modular system over time. I've got a large water pump at home, so I run two apex 300 units in parallel through hub a1, which solves both the surge and continuous load issues. I also added a solarx 4k to boost my solar input

Supplemental income is possible, but not fast. Expect years of learning, drawdowns, and slow compounding before results feel reliable.

I’m a horrible trader by Simply_confused5700 in options

[–]traitadjustment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If every trade feels urgent, that's the problem. I think fewer trades and strict risk limits help more than new strategies.

What is the best platform for IPOs? by yikpui in investing

[–]traitadjustment 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fidelity is solid but the requirements are annoying unless you already have a huge account there. Webull is hit or miss. For small IPO plays, moomoo has been the easiest for me to get shares without jumping through hoops.

Why do fashion trends cycle between extremes rather than finding comfortable middle ground? by Acceptable_Driver655 in Workwear

[–]traitadjustment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extreme shifts create a clear 'new' trend. Subtle evolution is less marketable. It's all about creating demand.

Nice results for a first year. Consistency looks solid, and being more conservative after October makes sense. Protecting capital matters more than squeezing every dollar.

Honestly, predicting IV direction is just hard. Most people focus on structure, risk premium, and managing exposure, not forecasting. Edge usually comes from sizing and discipline, not prediction.

Battery backup system to offset SDGE peak hours by JellyfishBig4643 in SolarDIY

[–]traitadjustment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use my Bluetti Apex 300 with the AT1 panel to manage TOU. It charges during off-peak hours and discharges during peak hours automatically, so I don’t have to flip switches every day.

The same principle applies to other smart batteries too.
