OK, who is going to lie and say they saw today's HUGE drop in the charts?

  1. You lost money today? I understand trade losses are inevitable, but still, traders should never lose money, or serious money from a trade.
    Can you elaborate, specifically, what % and/or dollar amount was lost? And how, and your overall account performance YTD? Misc Etc

    this is my number 1 problem, which i solved by self admonishment of how stupid i was do this time and time again. mostly it happens when the value of money is exceeded by my desire for revenge. lol oh prozac helped also....

    Prove it. You try to prove over and over how you make money, but you never try to prove how you lost money. You are just paying lip service to doubters. Show us, don't tell us!

    Long energy stocks was a fairly good play this morning; plus some ( not all ) of the Gold miners actually went up rebounding off yesterday's weakness. Huge move up in Nat Gas was interesting.

    Why have you not yet proven to us your loss? If you do not do that, you are not a real trader.

    I spent a few years making automated trading systems. The best one would go flat for about a year at a time, then explode to the upside as volatility came back in the market. As long as you're up every year, gratz!

    lets not forget 11 days prior the intraday move was even larger.

    False. Yesterday's move was the largest since 2020. We can even see it in your candle. 11 days prior was not as large an intraday move as yesterday. Unless I am not interpreting a time-based candle correctly.

    rth es dropped about 150 pts vs yesterdays about 100 or so

    of course if you count the gap then yes you're right but still close.

    the move a couple weeks ago was more vicious, no pull back to save you! lol.
