lol hahahahah I been telling S2007S since April to joining the market trend. He keeps trying to buck the trend.
You really are nasty when the markets aren't trading at zero. Besides - scalping from a cruise ship; what could possibly go wrong? Advice from ET'er to write options with no mention of a hedge while on a cruise ship - solid game plan.
I know where you are coming from but I think you are overlooking a point OP initially stated, he likes to .... go short. Not a one-way trader at all.
I told you S2007S long and strong S&P500 index man. You are not going to beat Donald Trump and FEDS. Come on over to the Bull side, I save a beer for you. Market will make new highs soon.
Simple lost his Fido 401k and is begging for a handout on ET. Good call, Bro. The only bull who has lost money since April.
Gentelmen. There are (precisely, I know) ppl, who made it from the beginning and ppl who never made it even after years. I even know a guy, who was selling cellphones in small "shack", got into prop, made money after 1st year, after second/third became millionaire. I know ppl who have massive knowledge and those who don't give a f.ck about how something works or how should it work, about many approaches, tools etc. and stick to that 1 thing that worked for them (and when it stops they developed something new). So everything is possible. Is it common ? Of course not, I also know a lot of ppl who finally failed. But let's not make it rocket science. One thing that all successful people I know have in common (and not only in trading), they don't care what is the theory, if it's fair or not, how the system is constructed, if ppl are fair, they don't complain about the world and injustice. World is not fair and never will be. They don't fight it, just adapt and try to act in those conditions making what they can for themselves.
Nah you can fuck up a lot in 30min lol. I didn't mention a lot of things. Why not mention the 100 other things like research, risk management, backtesting etc to "prove" your point that me stating that he should learn and write options is bad advice. It goes without saying that there should be stops/hedges in place when you trade along with a 100 other things. I guess you're right ET sponsor, never-mind OP, never learn options. Collecting premiums on stocks that you want to own anyways at a predetermined price is fkn stupid, my bad.
Well if he's on his cruise and the market tanks back down to March '20 levels that's a brilliant strategy for selling puts - but OP says he's a day trader with a 30 minute window.
