    Just like me then. But I also hold GME and will never sell because once all the shares are DRS'd, it's going to the moon.

    I have a post it note in front of me at all times (well, when I'm at my desk) that says "Wait for the perfect pitch. Just wait until it's comfortable". My mean reversion trading is a different story. I'm on auto pilot for those trades. But since I started trading the QQQ, I just wait until it's effortless. Do I miss good trades? Of course. And that has gotten me thinking a lot about continuous trading. I'm just not convinced it's a good idea.

    ITS not;
    unless one is a market maker-specialist or close to it + I'm not.
    I do like occasional trades that may not be high probability, like last half hour,, since cant predict; but last half hour for me ,would be mostly entry..............................
    Post note$ are good [yellow,blue green ] highlighters, like 'em also\
    I found a red highlighter an auto ran over it + still works, even though somewhat flat- oval markerLOL:D:D

  6. Hello jnbadger,

    I perfectly understand what you are saying. Something price is so juicy, it just screams saying come and take this easy money.

    I have one sticky note or mental note on computer and reads "You are Poor and You Will die tomorrow without a Million Dollars" That is the only thing in my trading that helps me.
