When these trades would be entered how long was it in general until the trade would reach the target when it was successful and made you money?
usually few months one of them was few weeks but i dont count those as actual trading. that was basically easy money without any skills all i figured out is that at some point throughout the year the stock will spike for few hours and if i have a position in it i dont have to pay attention to it jut wait until it does and sell i wouldnt call it a trading skill lol more like that one time that i managed to do a trick
how do i know if trend reversed in a bear market vs bull market? How bout reading a few of these articles and come back with some feedback. How to identify trend reversals https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/interesting-search-terms.365486/page-4#post-5594016
You like that easy money? lol. Yeah, we all do. If you see some laying around call me. You want to stay in the trading game?

You bought when you thought it was low. Sold when you thought it was high. You don't have to wait for NILE to get bullish and do nothing otherwise. Do you want to learn how to trade? Well do ya mute9003? Here's a place to start. Take a look at the charts on this link page. One's bullish and one's bearish at the same time. KC trades them in a similar way to the way you were trading NILE. He buys "LOW" and sells "HIGH" just like you did. KC has been at it a while and has some ways that work for him to decide when it is "LOW" and probably ready to head HIGHER. He is generous with his time and freely discloses tons of info about what he does. If you want to stay in the trading game go watch KC trade with a notepad in one hand and a pencil in the other. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/thre...za-sqqq-sdow-spxu.363924/page-13#post-5599857
Problem ia when i look at charts still cant tell what is happening i read so much contradicting information about chart reading that now i dont know what to actually look at One week i read "volume is the sht" all you need is volume.. Then i look at the chart and price moves by 20 cents and shows "one" volume. Then right after that does nothing on 1000s of volume then i read about chart patterns and everyine is like it could be a continuation or reversal pattern unless it goes into consolidation then its neither But it could bw either one you juat have to look for it... wtf
