[magic bay]

your honeymoon is over

They should of explained it

[eager fossil]

Try ic markets or vantage for small accounts on forex

[magic bay]

IC seems better for small accounts

[gilded sleet]

fuck

i dont have the account size

rip

[magic bay]

move it to MT4

you can place 0.1 lots

except gold which is 0.5

or withdraw and open with IC

[astral kelp]

@gilded sleet apply for more trading capital

[gilded sleet]

is mt4 just an app?

[eager fossil]

Yes

[gilded sleet]

i dont have a broker i dont think

[eager fossil]

Ig is your broker

[magic bay]

you setup an mt4 acc in ig

[gilded sleet]

is it a CFD or a spread betting account

[magic bay]

@gilded sleet https://www.ig.com/uk/trading-platforms/metatrader-4/download-mt4

[gilded sleet]

whats the differnce between CFD and spread betting?

TY @magic bay

[magic bay]

Spread Betting = tax free 🙂

[gilded sleet]

that one it is then aha

[magic bay]

(unless it's you sole income... which hopefully it isn't....)

[gilded sleet]

no haha

id be broke asf if it was aha

[magic bay]

yes

[gilded sleet]

is there any way to move money around my trading accounts on IG or do i need to withdrawl the funds and add them again

[magic bay]

I dont think you can "do it" manually - I think you need to either call them or do as you say @gilded sleet

[gilded sleet]

Ah okay ty

[queen herald]

Any advice on how to use the volatility to avoid consolidating?

[thin trail]

stat out of that market & wait for a new trigger

[queen herald]

Yeah done that a few times but in consolidation

[empty solar]

^ And in terms of using LV basically if you see a low volatility rating e.g. < 30/40% maybe try stay away

Or if you notice LV starting to fall again you want to avoid this

[queen herald]

Brilliant thanks

[muted ivy]

Top of the morning my fellow traders!!!

[weary sedge]

[muted ivy]

Nice 👌

Been in short usdjpy

[stone vessel]

Great trade last night on the NQ e mini The original strong buy was 10459 and the sell signal didn’t trigger until 10514 that’s a nice ride!

[weary sedge]

Good

Usdjpy is very bearish

[muted ivy]

Its crashing imo

Us/China tension on the rise

[weary sedge]

102.574 is my target

Usdjpy. Target profit for me is 102.574 just my opinion.

[muted ivy]

U aint playing, u hopped in?

[weary sedge]

Nope. I just using fibornacci to measure the profit

[muted ivy]

Ok

[weary sedge]

I’m only trade 5 position

Not trade more than 5

[muted ivy]

Gotcha

[weary sedge]

But usdjpy is very good position you have there.

[quasi obsidian]

Anyone using Lux Algo with breakout and retest strategy?

[dim acorn]

@quasi obsidian I don't know how to :)

[hidden moss]

what do y'all think about gold rn?

[astral kelp]

aliens

[hidden moss]

i think its going down to 1925

[weary sedge]

I don’t think it good idea to short gold on a bull trend

Follow the trend. Look for long

[hidden moss]

Ye i know its not a good idea, but i know what I am doing, i already closed my position anyways with my daily goal 😄

[dim acorn]

Guys time is not accurate

[wild temple]

What do you mean?

[dim acorn]

I was checking 5 min time frame

But it shows 9 o'clock

CGx 7.85 now but it shows 7.95 and says Strong buy

I don't get it

Check the clock it shows 09.00

[hidden moss]

change time zone on tradingview

[dim acorn]

Thank you

Just made $50 in 5 min

Thanks Lux

[vagrant meadow]

Post that ticket under the #💰share-profits tab!

[harsh obsidian]

Hey guys so I want to do like 20 pips a day on forex what do you guys think is a good setting for 15 min chart

[hidden moss]

yes please

@harsh obsidian If you want to make 20 pips a day, I would recommend you 15m chart, cause you are catching these small moves

focus on london and NY session

[harsh obsidian]

Yea but what is the best setting for lux for the 15 min

[muted ivy]

depends or ur trading style

use default and adjust as needed

[hidden moss]

somewhere around 4.

[harsh obsidian]

4 for the sensitivity?

[hidden moss]

yes

[harsh obsidian]

Sweet thanks guys

[noble solstice]

Got moderna 1D strong buy signal

[dim acorn]

Anyone from Canada ?

[true jasper]

Anyone from Canada ?
@dim acorn right here. Edmonton, AB

[dim acorn]

@true jasper hey man. Toronto

Are u in stocks or forex

[true jasper]

Forex and US30 mainly

Some crypto, but most of my work there is still in demo accts

[wraith relic]

Do you guys suggest using an account that is in dollars for trading US stocks? As was testing out a new strategy, put £300 in google Friday at 1511, now at 1521 and says I'm at a loss of -0.57p. So would that be the exchange rate maybe?

[vagrant meadow]

That could also depend on your actual trade itself. You did a call option, I assume?

[wraith relic]

No not doing options... yet, just on a practice account with trading 212

[vagrant meadow]

Fractional shares?

[wraith relic]

yes

[vagrant meadow]

Maybe? Exchange rate is the only thing i could. Between that and broker’s commission

[wraith relic]

Yeah guess I'll just open an account on robinhood in dollars for now and see if its any better

Update looks awesome, do I have to redo my alerts after updating?

[thin trail]

Alerts are not affected

[dim acorn]

Amazing

[tacit oxide]

loving the new update! testing out the alerts now

[dim acorn]

Lux signals are insane

Shop 1265 cad to 1285cad $20 signal

Awesome

Made $180 in 30 min

[dense palm]

@thin trail @empty solar This update is awesome

For version 2.6

Im gonna mess around with it like a mad scientist haha 🧪

[dim acorn]

Can we get the newest version?

[dense palm]

@dim acorn remove the script from your chart then refresh your tradingview page, then add Lux Algo back to your chart, and the new version should automatically appear 👍

[dim acorn]

@dense palm thanks a lot

Is there any good difference ?

[dense palm]

No problem 👍

They added automatic trend lines and linear regression. Im gonna have to do some research on linear regression but from messing around with it, it looks awesome

The automatic trendlines really come in handy with the automatic support and resistance 😎

[trim fog]

Hey guys how can you backtest Lux algo on tradingvieuw?

[empty solar]

Those trend lines 😍😍

[dense palm]

IKR

Literally makes it so much easier

@empty solar Could you explain more about the Linear Regression Forecast please. I read the description on your website, but should we use it more for direction of the asset?

Kinda like a trendline maybe?

[empty solar]

@dense palm It's like a little prediction

For the price movement

It's a line that best fits the current data

[wild temple]

Anyone on here ever do a live trading session with lux?

[dense palm]

@empty solar Awesome thank you

[scarlet salmon]

do you guys act on buys/sells or only strong buys/sells? cause i noticed on some charts sometimes the buys or sells if you look back should have been strong but weren't

or in other cases it was strong but it really should not have been strong

[thin trail]

Yes - in our terminology it states this 🙂

!terminology

[frank geode]

Lux Algo V2 Signal Terminology: https://luxalgo.com/apps/help-center#!hc-signal-terminology-1

[thin trail]

You can take normal signals as long or short positions if you believe in them strongly

Also be aware that normal signals can turn into Strong signals as candles turn green or red from purple

[vagrant meadow]

All about risk to reward. I’ve gone in on weak signals before.

[hidden moss]

new update is grate like always

[empty solar]

❤️ appreciate it

[raw jay]

Hey guys I'm feeling a little lost.
Anyone that uses it for forex can give some recommendations? =) such do you use henkin ashi or candles with optmization? Also what TimeFrame do you prefer to trade with lux algo? Like 5m 1h 4h?

[empty solar]

Depends what you're using

You talking about our buy/sell signals?

[raw jay]

Yes it can be both

Actually I'm having a good for a while just struggling on defining a great tp or an exite rule

Also, really lovely the new 2.6 version 😄 great job for the developers! =D

[vagrant meadow]

3-0 for a scalper. How great is this update!

[opaque rapids]

lmao

[dim acorn]

Hahaha

That's crazy

[empty solar]

hahahah that flatline

[dim acorn]

@empty solar could you check APHA ? Should I leave as it or sell

[versed oasis]

How do you make the linear like darker so you can see it

[empty solar]

You can't sadly

@dim acorn I'm just the programmer

Up to you - you're the trader 😉

[dim acorn]

Thanks dude

[versed oasis]

Can you change colour?

Nevermind just changed the background colour

[dense palm]

@vagrant meadow That SPY Breakout was beautiful

Tape was looking decent too

@raw jay for Forex I like to use the 30 minute timeframe with the default forex settings (3.7,1.74,20). In terms of your SL I would look for candle wicks or a key level and same with your take profit, you can always use ema's to help with your stop loss or Take profit as well. I personally like to use VWAP on the lower timeframes. The equalizer band also really helps as well.

[raw jay]

Sure thanks for your thoughts ♥

What does the Any Buy and Any Sell do?

[empty solar]

Basically for Strong buy + buy

or Strong sell + sell

So it puts them together in one alerts

[raw jay]

Ooh that's nice =)

[calm dust]

so how's your guys' day going? LOL

I'm still working on getting to $25K, so you'll need to have fun daytrading w/o me until then

How was the day guys

[vagrant meadow]

@dim acorn I didn’t do ANYTHING. I had two job sites back to back with poor reception so by the time I got signal I had already missed the plays. Template went 3-0 though! Lux is great ❤️

[dim acorn]

Made $150 but I could make $1800. I was testing Lux 😂😂

Lux is great

Got fucked on amzn today

$AMZN will definitely burn you if you get stuck. I try not to stay in any longer than I have to. It’ll pump 20 points the opposite way before I know what even happened

@dim acorn where are you located?

what chart are you guys using for weekly options?

[scarlet salmon]

any options. ToS you can see the charts for any option chain

are the lux scanners delayed? For example I see today at 1130am that it alerted V as a buy signal but on tradingview it shows the signal was yesterday at 1:30

Our Discord market scanner alerts all use the following:

• Heikin Ashi Candles
• Default Lux Algo (V2.5 inputs & no toggle options enabled)
• Normal trading hours (no extended hours)
• Main exchanges / brokers such as NASDAQ / TVC / OANDA / COINBASE / BINANCE

TradingView alerts are set per your exact settings, timeframe, and enabled toggle options at the time you set the alert.
Adding the Equalizer band makes it require more confirmation to register a signal as "Strong".

No they are all in real time

When is a signal confirmed? https://luxalgo.com/apps/help-center#!hc-when-is-a-signal-confirmed-1

[shell jungle]

So how can I get the signal once it comes up

[thin trail]

The signal appears on your chart during the life of the candle it's on

And the signal is confirmed (meaning it's official and it's permanent on the chart) once the candle closes.

[shell jungle]

Oh so I have to wait for the candle to close for it to say strong buy even though it said that in the discord

[thin trail]

No no

It will only say it in the Discord once the candle closes as well

[shell jungle]

Oh but it says strong buy on SHOP at 18.30 but is not confirmed on the chart

[thin trail]

On the 4H timeframe

[shell jungle]

Yeah

the one you sent above ^ is correct

TradingView shows UTC by default

It's the same data though

Regardless of the timezone

It happened at the same time as the candle closed and the signal was confirmed

See the chart you sent like 10 messages ago, it's correct

[shell jungle]

So it’s still expecting it to go up

[empty solar]

Yes a strong buy would suggest it expects it to go up

But of course you need to confirm you believe that too

[shell jungle]

I just thought it would notify me and on the chart right than it would say strong buy

[thin trail]

It does, within Discord

[shell jungle]

Where is the strong sell on the chart

[vagrant meadow]

🤨

[vagrant meadow]

Disable your equalizer band and you’ll see it

[shell jungle]

How

[vagrant meadow]

Gear ⚙️ icon,

[shell jungle]

Oh yeah done it

[vagrant meadow]

Next to Lux Algo

[shell jungle]

Thanks

[vagrant meadow]

🙂

[shell jungle]

When your scalping say rcl with the 5 min will it come up with a buy or sell in time

[vagrant meadow]

Yep

[shell jungle]

Nice

[hasty trout]

So sometimes the strong buy signal and sell signal will end up being on the same level. Because the bar lengths can vary. How does everyone else approach this?

[dim acorn]

Is there anyone who is doing Option trading ? I’d like to get some tips

[broken sentinel]

Has anyone used the Lux Algo forex signals on Nadex?

[shell jungle]

Oh starting to get the hang of this so the signal comes up once the bar is closed witch helps me with uncertainty

[empty solar]

Correct 🙂

[shell jungle]

So if there is a big candle and it says strong green does that mean that the candle was big or there is a possible up trend or both

[empty solar]

strong green?

Hi, 2.6 with trend line is so cool

will it make much more accurate trend if I use tradingview pro or premium (more data)?

and is default settings good for H4/Daily charts?

People that use this for stocks, is it like a Forex thing where you’re not actually paying for the stock or do you guys just have huge accounts? For instance I seen a person on here talking about the Tesla stock which is over $1k per share 😳

[dim acorn]

@thin trail bro u should help me

What are the best settings for 2.6 ?

@wild temple a lot of us day trade I think. you need $25k min for day trading. and by nature you dont hold stocks or options that long when day trading

@raw jay talk in here ☺️

[raw jay]

Oh sure! 🙏 my bad

[hidden moss]

hey guys, i'm looking for some help. I'm having a hard time finding a strategy that works for me... I've tried smaller time frames, higher time frames, playing only with the oscillator but at the end I'm having more loss than win and have lost a few €.

[raw jay]

What setting do you use Gecko?

[empty solar]

Do you have a profitable strategy without lux Frenchie?

@raw jay depends on the asset and timeframes

[raw jay]

Let's say 1 hour for example

[hidden moss]

@empty solar not at all

i believe in lux but can't find a good strategy that suits me

[empty solar]

I'd recommend sticking to high timeframes and using the trend line and support resistance to trade with

That's always been my fave methos

Method

@raw jay which asset though, it's not one size fits all

[hidden moss]

ok @empty solar will look into it thanks

[raw jay]

Like forex, eur gbp for example, in 1h
Which sensitivity agility smoothing do you suggest?

Oh also what do you prefer to trade? Like cripto, índices, forex, stocks? 🙂

[astral kelp]

Love the trend line :))

Wish I could help, scalping is not for me

I stick to intraday, day trades

[magic bay]

Scalping - nothing higher than 15m

safe pairs (Indices are volatile in short TF's)

[empty solar]

@astral kelp new profile pic?

Is that anomaly? 😂

[astral kelp]

actually

I think it might be one of the guys in the cactus jack album

Jackboys

innit

[gilded sleet]

any can i only see some charts on MT4 on desktop

im trying yo open a trade on USDCAD but i cant find the ticker for it on 'new chart'

[magic bay]

@gilded sleet you need to add the symbols

they are disabled by default

@gilded sleet CTRL + U

[vagrant meadow]

Hello everyone, I wanna ask a few questions as I want to move into other areas of trading and now I will try out scalping

What time frame is recommended
What indicators are the best to use
Which type of stocks should I target (such as penny stocks etc)
@hidden moss 1min, 5min, 15min is typical for scalping... indicators is what you like to look at, but you’ll need to be able to measure momentum and OB/OS areas. Pick stocks that actually move. Volume of at least 1 million, beta of 1.00+

[shell jungle]

I never use indicators gust greed and fear

[vagrant meadow]

@shell jungle whatever works for ya 😄

[calm dust]

TQQQ and SQQQ are leveraged "indicators" that I've scalped before

I've moved over to swing though, because I have a day job and it was annoying to watch it all day, even with the alerts

Now I work off of signals from Lux on 30m chart, but tune Lux to match signaling it does on a 2h

I mostly do leveraged crypto, and have been swinging between 1-3% per 24h on Lux 2.6.

When BTC and ETH popped up the other day, it was a 7% day for me, but came back down a little

I trade btcup-usdt/btcdown-usdt, ethup-usdt/ethdown-usdt and adaup-usdt/adadown-usdt on Binance. Each of these 6 have different Lux settings I'm using to signal.

Also do BTC, ETH and LTC on Robinhood, plus TQQQ and SQQQ

[wild temple]

@calm dust What settings do you use for BTC ?

[calm dust]

BTC-USD on Robinhood, or BTCUP-USDT and BTCDOWN-USDT on Binance?

[stoic mirage]

what do u use for robinhood?

[wild temple]

@calm dust binance

[calm dust]

For Robinhood I'm using the Coinbase 30m BTCUSD chart with Lux at 6.5, 1.95, 90. It should trade every few days. I also use an ATR trailing stoploss + indicator and a TTM Squeeze indicator you can see here @stoic mirage : https://www.tradingview.com/chart/rusgcdXr/

[stoic mirage]

thanks!!

[calm dust]

@wild temple : For Binance I'm trading the 3x leveraged tokens BTCUP and BTCDOWN. BTCUP is using (7, 1.96, 65) and BTCDOWN is using (6.45,2,75) and again, I'm using this with the 2 other indicators I just mentioned and show at the link above

SQQQ just signaled a sell, btw

[wild temple]

Awesome, thanks!

[calm dust]

SQQQ:

I'm using (4.75, 1.9, 60) on a 30m candle

[wild temple]

Unfortunately I don’t have that one on my mt4 so I can’t trade it

What platform are you trading that on?

[calm dust]

Robinhood

the nice thing is that it's the inverse of TQQQ

So if I have to sell SQQQ the same day I buy it and don't want to get flagged for pattern day trading, I can at least buy TQQQ and balance them out - put things on pause

I don't make what I would have holding only TQQQ, but at least it stays still

until I can sell SQQQ the next morning

[wild temple]

Are you using the fractional shares on Robinhood?

[calm dust]

yeah I just chuck in whole dollar amounts, easier to keep track of how it's doing

Like $2000

[wild temple]

Ok yea I signed up for the waitlist yesterday for the fractional shares ability

[calm dust]

ETHUP signaled a buy and ETHDOWN signaled a sell 3.5 hours ago

[wild temple]

What is the variation on the up and down part for instance what’s the difference between BTCUSD, BTCUP-USD, BTCDOWN-USD

[calm dust]

Here's ETHUP and ETHDOWN with the settings I'm using

https://www.binance.com/en/leveraged-tokens/tokens/allTokens

I've been attempting to trade both sides to catch consistent upsides as they oscillate

[wild temple]

Are you trading those on binance?

[calm dust]

yes

You'd think that when one says sell, you should buy the other one - but I learned that one the hard way. You have to trade them as if they're totally separate because it's not a perfect tracking between them

[wild temple]

Ok so now is trading those on binance like Forex where you do lot sizes?

[calm dust]

no I just trade it like normal crypto on Binance

for example

[wild temple]

Ok I see

[calm dust]

https://www.binance.com/en/trade/pro/ETHUP_USDT

right now LTC is the only thing I'm in at Robinhood - no inverse trading there

currently in on LTC, ETHUP and BTCDOWN

[wild temple]

Do you also trade forex/crypto like on mt4

[calm dust]

I've never used MT4

[wild temple]

Or any other broker

[calm dust]

just Binance and Robinhood at the moment. I have Coinbase/Bittrex & Vanguard accounts for traditional tax-leveraged stuff

nope, I try to avoid fees, as you can see by my Robinhood - Binance - Vanguard preference 🙂

[wild temple]

Does binance or Robinhood do Forex or are you not in Forex?

[calm dust]

I'm not in ForEx, but with the way everyone else around here talks about it, I've been thinking about it 😄

[wild temple]

Ahh gotcha, yea I mean from the looks of how you have your charts dialed in I’d say you’d probably do quite well

[calm dust]

yeah I've just never looked into it

[wild temple]

Yea I’m the same with robin hood, waiting to get that fractional share ability then gonna get started in robinhood as well

[calm dust]

my problem is that I'm under $25K on Robinhood, so I can't jump in and out

well, not yet anyway

[wild temple]

What’s there’s rules for that as I would be under 25k as well

[calm dust]

It's not a Robinhood rule, it's the SEC

https://robinhood.com/us/en/support/articles/pattern-day-trading/

[wild temple]

Hmm maybe I’ll hold off on that until I’m able to fully find that 25k

[calm dust]

Crypto is exempt, if you noticed

You can flip flop that all you want :D

[wild temple]

Yea I’ll do Crypto there as well, I wonder how the fractional shares work as far as the day trading goes

[soft locust]

@dim acorn lux gave me the “buy” signal and I read the news they beat earnings so I bought in. Then sold before the market opened because there’s usually huge sell offs

[dim acorn]

I couldn’t find any good platform for pre market and post market

Do u live in Canada ?

[iron night]

WeBull

[hidden moss]

Any stocks you guys on right now

[soft locust]

@worldly sparrow I was gonna swing it yesterday just like fb but you never know with the market so I waited today

[iron night]

ACHV right now

But at .79 pre market

Bought*

[soft locust]

I live in TX I’m using TOS

[worldly sparrow]

@soft locust 100% that’s smart. Im also thinking of swinging Apple

Their earnings announcement is Thursday or am I wrong?

[dim acorn]

That’s why 🙂

[mossy plank]

I live in canada.. do you billtoy?

[hidden moss]

What time period do you use > But at .79 pre market
@iron night

[iron night]

like on the chart?

[hidden moss]

Yh

[soft locust]

It’s all about strategy guys it’ll help specially we have lux to guide us. Before lux I would make $300-$500 a day and now it’s easy to beat $1000. Just position yourself and take profit don’t hold on to the bag we’re not trying to marry the stock. Hit it and quit it lol

[hidden moss]

What time period do you use

[soft locust]

@worldly sparrow yes you are correct

[iron night]

30m and 1h then daily. Just depending on how I’m playing the stock

[soft locust]

I have 1 min for my entry and exit and also my 5min

[iron night]

I do 15 min here and there too

[dim acorn]

It’s all about strategy guys it’ll help specially we have lux to guide us. Before lux I would make $300-$500 a day and now it’s easy to beat $1000. Just position yourself and take profit don’t hold on to the bag we’re not trying to marry the stock. Hit it and quit it lol

Definitely. I’m way down with APHA

[wild temple]

@dim acorn are you in Forex or just stocks?

[dim acorn]

Just stocks

[worldly sparrow]

@soft locust do you think they’ll beat earnings? Personally I think they’ll do great. They’ve been earnings every quarter for awhile

[soft locust]

It’s also important to read level 2

[wild temple]

What are you using to trade them? And are they full price per share? @dim acorn

[soft locust]

I haven’t really looked into them @worldly sparrow I’ll do research today and get back to you

[dim acorn]

@soft locust level 2?

[soft locust]

Yes the best one I like is robinhood

[hidden moss]

Any stocks you guys onto right now?

[wild temple]

@soft locust what’s level 2

[worldly sparrow]

Gotcha thanks @soft locust. Right now I’m into bkyi and a few others

[wild temple]

@dim acorn are they full price per share or fractions?

[soft locust]

This is level II

You’ll see how many are being bought and sold at certain price.

[dim acorn]

@soft locust appreciate it

[soft locust]

NP 🙂

[dim acorn]

@wild temple fully price

[vagrant meadow]

@soft locust is the real MVP

[soft locust]

Lmfao thank you ☺️☺️☺️☺️ @vagrant meadow

[iron night]

For mobile honestly, I’d suggest WeBull. More advanced indicators and more information on each ticker!

[soft locust]

Ya I like webull too don’t read comments on there it’ll mess you up

[iron night]

True that. The community on there is all wack hahah

[soft locust]

They’re usually 99% wrong lol

[iron night]

Yup haha

[dim acorn]

Watch KODK

It’s crazy

[soft locust]

This is the watch list. I believe Spotify will do good tomorrow as well

[dim acorn]

I saw this on Instagram

Aphria got messed up

I have bought when it was $6 something

Now it’s 5 🙂

@soft locust you are doing OT right ?

[scenic geyser]

Watch KODK
@dim acorn Is it halted or something, been watching it and it keeps freezing both on tradingview and fidelity?

^nevermind, it is. I see the news

[hidden moss]

Kodk price target guys???

[worldly sparrow]

It’s halting on everything

Imma ride this one out. I keep putting stop orders a dollar under it’s having a trend where it’s legit just halting

[thorny saddle]

First halt down be careful

[stoic mirage]

hey guys any thoughts on a ud

sbux**

worth getting into rn? using lux it looks like there might be room to enter in but i’m not sure i’ve only jus started using it

[scenic geyser]

KODK seems like a trap. Each time it's halted you can see whether the bids or asks are piling up. But the volatility is through the roof

[worldly sparrow]

Gone get into Kodak? I made about 5k in it today off like a 30min day trade

Anyone get Into*

[scenic geyser]

Thought it was overbought yesterday, wish I got in. I don't know now, can't short it either (well at least through fidelity)

[worldly sparrow]

Yea man same. Wish I got in at $7

[scenic geyser]

aaaand halted again

Crazy

[dim acorn]

It will go up u think?

[scenic geyser]

More pressure on the ask, volatility is at 62%. I think it could go up a bit more, but this one is really just an absolute gamble

[soft locust]

KODK might but you don’t wanna be stuck in the halt

[dim acorn]

Serious gamble

I hope go back to &50s

[scenic geyser]

KODK might but you don’t wanna be stuck in the halt
@soft locust Exactly, I've lost count of the halts today. It's like everytime it moves, they give it 1-2min and halted

[soft locust]

Manipulation at its finest

[brittle tundra]

I don’t know if it’s going back up to 50

[scenic geyser]

Manipulation at its finest
@soft locust Which L2 platform are you using?

[soft locust]

Robinhood

[scenic geyser]

Ah, thanks. Fidelity's is kind of butt

[soft locust]

Ya I don’t like fidelity at all

[hidden moss]

Any stocks you guys on

[paper anvil]

Did anyone also catch that trend of Kodak from last week?

[magic bay]

I finished my stocks for the day @hidden moss

[hidden moss]

Any overnight holds ?

[magic bay]

I tend to only hold pennys overnight - the rest are scalped during the day

I've had AIM for months

IBIO but sold

[hidden moss]

Hold boxl tonight there's rumours there will be a huge government announcement tomorrow

For education funding

[magic bay]

I shall have a look

[worldly sparrow]

I personally don’t think Kodak is gonna but 50 for another 500 years

Unless news comes out again

Or trump mentions it

[dim acorn]

Bought at $32

[worldly sparrow]

I hope it reaches high for you just use that stop order to negate losses

[lost hull]

guys

[dim acorn]

@worldly sparrow thanks let’s see what’s gonna happen

[worldly sparrow]

@dim acorn I hope the best let’s make that MONEY

[lost hull]

i would love to chat with someone who wanna exchange trade strats for Forex. i got a 30 min one but i need a much smaller time frame. Like a 5M one

[worldly sparrow]

@hidden moss where did you bear the news?

Hear*

[dim acorn]

My friend got 1000 shares when it’s $7.94

😂😂

[worldly sparrow]

Wow man he made banks

[dim acorn]

Check this volume

He made 40k in one day

[summer bobcat]

@dim acorn can I borrow his crystal ball? Or if anyone has a time machine that would work to ...

[stone rain]

@lost hull message me

[gilded sleet]

GBPNZD change in trend?

[scarlet salmon]

for those of you trading on 1m/5m/15m what do you have your sensitivity set to?

[empty solar]

That of course will depend on the asset and style 😉

[paper anvil]

KODAK go brrrr! the surge is insane rn

[mossy plank]

Hey stock traders does anyone use the rubberband trading strategy for penny stocks and if so what indicator do you use in TV to get the standard deviation 4.0

[calm dust]

if you're looking for "tomorrow's earnings" plays for popular companies, this is a decent resource: https://www.earningswhispers.com/calendar?sb=p&d=1&t=all&v=t

[scarlet salmon]

thanks! what's your preferred strategy before earnings releases? cause it's hard to know which way it will go, even if growth is positive or negative it doesn't always go the way you think

[calm dust]

I don't play earnings, but I do have the resources 🙂 If it were me, I'd set up a system where I'd put a certain amount in for each company coming up on earnings that week and set a tight stoploss. If they do well, then let it run until Lux says sell. If earnings are bad, then let the stoploss kick it. I'm guessing it would be one of those "lose 1% on 9/10, but make 10% on 1/10" things

[stoic mirage]

that sound like a rlly effective idea thanks @calm dust

[pearl zodiac]

Do you think Kodak is going to keep going up?

[worldly sparrow]

Honestly I thought it’d be down to $20 by now. But it’s still doing insane

[scarlet salmon]

imagine if you just bought one call on Kodak...

[calm dust]

lux still had KODK as a buy...

down to 5m candle

That one is hyped to death though, it could turn on you in a heartbeat

[dim acorn]

Kodak $45

[calm dust]

yep

[soft locust]

People selling their shares at 70$ lmfao

[calm dust]

jeez

[dim acorn]

I bought at $32

Let’s see

[soft locust]

Wrong one here you go

[dim acorn]

Something quite wrong

[calm dust]

I should figure out options one of these days... I've been concentrating on Crypo because I've been into it a while, understand most of it, but especially because it runs 24/7

[dim acorn]

@soft locust any predictions for tomorrow ?

[soft locust]

Massive support at $38

Got UPS on watch

[dim acorn]

Ups might go up

[soft locust]

I think it’ll go up pre market so I might swing it same thing happened to FedEx then massive sell off an hour after that market opened

With Covid they should beat earnings

[dim acorn]

It’s a gamble telling u

[calm dust]

I don't think Bill is swing trading tho

[dim acorn]

No Amazon hahaha

[soft locust]

No he’s not

[calm dust]

he's imagining future world state

[dim acorn]

Long term for sure

[calm dust]

2030 stuff

[thorny saddle]

lol bill scalping for .15

[eager fossil]

Sorry what’s bhhs

[calm dust]

I'd look it up in UrbanDictionary, but I'm afraid

[soft locust]

Did KODK halt again lol

[dim acorn]

How come it stocks strong in the morning

Never moved

Any ideas guys?

[soft locust]

What you mean it never moved?

Like it was consolidating?

[dim acorn]

I think it’s consolidating but check that strong ping it was around 10 am 🙂

[soft locust]

Yes I liked how KODK was set up i just don’t mess with halts

Bull flag for sure

[dim acorn]

Ohh yeah

Halts a lot

It’s a blind bid

[soft locust]

If this breaks $36 it’ll bleed from here

[dim acorn]

Yup

Thank god I sell at $45

[soft locust]

Good I’m glad

[dim acorn]

200 shares bought at $32

[soft locust]

Nice

[dim acorn]

Can’t complain

😂

[soft locust]

Easy money

[calm dust]

I just grabbed a nice pile of BOXL (eLearning company, earnings out Aug 11)

random, rare bet over on Robinhood since I had a little extra to spend there

[soft locust]

Nice

[calm dust]

Just looking to ride the hype train and get out

[soft locust]

We should do a morning watch list here

[calm dust]

schools start this week, so...

#696781587223937025 is likely the best place for it

[pearl zodiac]

Kodak is fighting hard

[soft locust]

Oh nice I didn’t know that

[scarlet salmon]

I did 1 call on UPS/MA before the bell tomorrow, still a buy on Lux, rewards outweigh the risk for me

[soft locust]

Buh bye Tesla

[hidden moss]

Any shares you guys on?

Stocks

[dim acorn]

KODK

[hidden moss]

You think it'll go up overnight??

[dim acorn]

Bought back at $37

Can’t stop making profit

😂😂

@hidden moss I’m not sure man

It’s risky

If Trump even says Koda it will jump

But when I read Yahoo’s they think it will jump to 100 by tomorrow

[west drum]

How do i actually trade on robinhood?

[uneven spear]

Anyone using tradestation to trade?

[scarlet salmon]

anyone buying AAPL for the earnings tomorrow?

[soft locust]

HOME ww

@scarlet salmon I am

[eager quarry]

@i have 290 calls on AAPL , hoping to ride the rally tomorrow and get out before earnings eod

[hidden moss]

What time is the apple earnings out

[eager quarry]

390

5pm

[soft locust]

AMD ww too

[wooden vine]

QCOM!!!!

[soft locust]

I’ve been studying fb and I noticed it goes $230-$235 sometimes even $245. I tried swinging it last night bought 300 shares at $230 and I made $350 on it. I think fb will be a good stock to buy at $230

Then just sell and buy the dip again ($230)

[silent gulch]

I will try that as an options play. Thank you @soft locust

[soft locust]

@silent gulch sounds good let me know how it goes 🙂

[rotund rover]

Nice job ! 👌

[woven mortar]

Do you guys think kndi is gonna go high tomorrow too?

[dim acorn]

I’m praying for that 😂

Bought at $33.21

If it drops I will hold it until reach to the sky

@soft locust you should teach me OT

:)

Never involved that

[calm dust]

@soft locust I'd love to hear your wins in %. Dollars are great, but making $100 on $1000 is great, $1000 on $100,000...eh. I suspect you're killing it but you're selling yourself short 😄

[dim acorn]

I won't sleep tonite haha

[calm dust]

win some lose some

it's an averages game

[dim acorn]

That's the thing

[calm dust]

9 steps back then a 10-step leap forward

[dim acorn]

Today APHA shit with me

Dropped $1.70

2000 shares

U do the math

[calm dust]

I don't wanna

[dim acorn]

It was an earning call for them we all thought will rise to the sky

[calm dust]

yeah I was just looking, -19%, yeesh

rough way to learn how to place stoplosses - luckily Lux will tell you where to make them!

[dim acorn]

Ohh yeah

[calm dust]

that sucks dude

Lux 2.6, that is

[dim acorn]

Yup

[calm dust]

Check out the 'ATR Trailing Stoploss' indicator I use too, might be helpful: https://www.tradingview.com/chart/rusgcdXr/

[dim acorn]

Thanks man appreciate it

[calm dust]

it also has buy/sell indicators, but you don't have to use them

no problem, a rising tide floats all boats

I never understood why people would want to keep their trading methodology a secret. Like, are you afraid we'll all start trading the exact same way? because in supply vs. demand pricing, that would be awesome

[dim acorn]

Totally agree man. I don't understand those people actually. We are in the same ship.

[calm dust]

how many more sailing metaphors can I now jam into this conversation

[empty solar]

Put it on your list to santa

He will fwd it to me

[calm dust]

got it

[soft locust]

@calm dust if it was so easy to make $6000 who wouldn’t do it right? With the way the market is with volatility I will take $500 any day over -$500. And I do 10% of my total trade not the whole account that’s just very risky.

[dim acorn]

@soft locust you should teach us 🙂 is it with OT right?

[soft locust]

I scalp I don’t stay in a trade longer than 1 min lol I tried that before and it definitely wasn’t for me lost over 25k. I got in late on HOME but again I’ll take $175 as profit lol @calm dust

[dim acorn]

Lost 25k woke

Wooow

[soft locust]

Yup when I first started just like 95% of traders blow their account

[dim acorn]

Thank god u didn’t give up. That was your resistance line 🙂

[soft locust]

@dim acorn no coz if I did I wouldn’t have gotten it back and some more 😉

[dim acorn]

That’s right

But I agree with you if you learn the lesson you make min $300 a day with $5000-$10.000

Specially with Lux

[soft locust]

My goal is $500 a day if the market gives me more helllll yes I’ll take it. I own a car lot so I cant sit on the computer all day trading

[dim acorn]

I never involved to OT. But I’ll learn. I’m way confused with that. Ask -bid etc etc I don’t what that is. Once i learn I’ll load my bag

[soft locust]

I don’t do OT

[dim acorn]

Oh I thought you do

[soft locust]

No I don’t

[dim acorn]

What are u do then

[soft locust]

Scalp

I can only trade before market and maybe lunch time

And after market too

My main source of income is my car lot trading is just a hobby

[dim acorn]

Your car ?

[soft locust]

Car lot

A little dealership

[dim acorn]

Oww I see nice

[soft locust]

It’s kinda slow coz of Rona so trading helps

[dim acorn]

Yup what u gonna do

[calm dust]

@soft locust right - I think I was more saying that $500/day is awesome, but there's a difference between doing that with $10K in the account and $100M in the account

Like I could day I made $50 today....but did I start with $20? or $20,000?

I'm much more towards the $20 side, so the % is a lot more...relatable, I guess?

[soft locust]

Okay how’s that? Lol better?

[calm dust]

yeah that's great, because if you make a 10% trade, for sure you need to get the cred you deserve!

reworded

[soft locust]

Ya I only use 10% of my account on each trade lol I don’t use all 100k unless I’m 100% confident on the trade

[calm dust]

oh for sure

That's probably a good rule for everyone tbh

$1000 or $100K

[soft locust]

It is a rule everyone should follow

And I limit myself to 3% loss for the day. I stop and don’t look back

[calm dust]

I follow 11, but I'll never be in less than 5 or so at a time

[soft locust]

Because once the market is against you oh it’s against you

[kindred wasp]

i don't think how much you use is a problem.... it's how much you're willing to lose.

you could use 100k, and only be willing to lose 1k. Your stop loss would limit your losses. 😄

[calm dust]

I'd like to see 2% average per day, but I likely couldn't stomach 50% swings in my total balance to do it

[soft locust]

@kindred wasp it is a problem you’re not gonna use all 100k on a .50 cent stock lol

[kindred wasp]

stop loss is your best friend.

[calm dust]

but I get what you're saying

[kindred wasp]

it's also your worst enemy. lmao

[soft locust]

Stop losses are your worst enemy as much as I love them I hate them

[calm dust]

yeah that's the other thing, even though I have relatively lower trades, I'm using stuff with extremely high volume so it settles instantly

dropping into a penny stock with $100K and no volume, you'll end up selling lemonade to yourself on the other end

[scarlet salmon]

once u have that much money though, its not even about how much percentage. Sure making 50% on 100k is HUGE but for day trading, I think $500 per day is an awesome bar. Many people will be happy if they can get that consistently. Technically with 100k, all you need is to be up 0.5% on the day and that's your $500. With things like options it really does not take much to get up 0.5% lol IMO it's almost guaranteed unless you are incredibly unlucky enough to get in at the absolute peak

with Lux though, I highly doubt that you would get in at the absolute peak though

[kindred wasp]

$200 a day is a decent salary TBH

many people could live off making $100 a day.

[calm dust]

when you get a significant pool (and don't want to play), that's when it's time to think about dividend portfolios, etc

fine art

classic automobiles

[soft locust]

Yup I’ll take $500 that’s my goal until I can master it wellll I shouldn’t say master coz not even bill gates knows where the market is heading

[calm dust]

for me, I'm shooting for 1.9% per day, knowing full well it's likely not going to happen. But it's fun to think of having $1M in 600 days

[scarlet salmon]

2% per day is awesome lol. I mean think about the fact that people rent out their homes for 5%-10% return a YEAR.

[kindred wasp]

i mean, 5-10% a year isn't too shabby on a house. 😄

paid off in 15 years, all profit after that. 😄

[scarlet salmon]

thats assuming 0 property tax, hoa and 0 mortgage lol, in reality it's less than that for most people

[kindred wasp]

of course, lol. but, you have a larger turnover on a house. once you get upto like 500k in trading. it'll be hard to make 1-2% a day

[scarlet salmon]

percentage wise maybe but absolute dollar wise lol ... one green candle could mean $10k+ per minute

[soft locust]

500k damn I cant wait to get there lol

Right?

[kindred wasp]

sounds dangerous, lol.

[soft locust]

If you risk all of it lol

[kindred wasp]

you can also lose 10k+ a minute

[scarlet salmon]

of course, banks would never lend you that much for trading like they would for buying a house

[soft locust]

Which I don’t recommend that’s how people blow their accounts lol

[kindred wasp]

stick to your $500 a day if you're consistent. no need to get greedy 😄

[soft locust]

That’s $10,000 a month at $500 a day I’ll take it lol

[kindred wasp]

i'm happy with $100 a day, lol. 3k a month

nice little side gig.

[scarlet salmon]

me too. thats def nicer than most side gigs

[soft locust]

Shooot me too lol

Last two days I’ve sucked made $180 $350

[scarlet salmon]

are you using thinkorswim btw?

i dont like tradingview that much, have to pay for more windows + no option chain charts

but... Lux isnt on ToS yet 😦

so im like going back and forth between charts

[soft locust]

Yes I am

I have lux on a laptop 6 charts

I also have it like this

[scarlet salmon]

@empty solar thats my #1 request... please get Lux on Thinkorswim lol

dang!

[soft locust]

I don’t think TOS works like that.

[scarlet salmon]

it does, you have to add a .ts file which is similar to the scripts trading view uses and import it as a custom study
