@KynaKosling @DanZanger nice

I did a deep dive into @DanZanger. Not the kind with lots of zeroes and the implication that Dan has a “magic formula” you can copy. But the kind that looks beyond the surface layer. That doesn’t accept answers at face value. That wants to figure out what causes apparent contradictions. That doesn’t just want to know *what* Dan does, but *why*. The kind that gets to the ESSENCE of the strategy: What makes it work? What are the foundational ideas that underpin it? As I put the pieces together, it became increasingly clear to me that you can trace the most striking elements of Dan’s style to his hard-earned lessons and personality. Because his strategy — just like anyone else’s — isn’t perfect. …which makes the interesting question: how did he make it so potent anyway? *** This article is NOT for you if you’re looking for quick answers and shortcuts. But if you’re looking for depth, I may have just made your day: *** The Nuances Behind Dan Zanger How the story shapes the strategy 🔗 tinyurl.com/4t9xf4h9

@ShortDaPos What do you think is the best way to learn from your mistakes? After I make one, I screen record it and write it down. It has helped, but I’m wondering what elite traders do.

Imagine a car with no wheels. That’s trading without learning from your mistakes. You’re not moving forward, you’re just spinning. Inconsistent traders have the same flaw, they make mistakes & they don't solve the problems. "Trader" Aka "Problem Solver"

@lonextrades nice

Qullamaggie on You Make Money Buying Out of Solid Bases Not When Extended “And also remember guys, it’s a good thing these extended stocks are pulling back. Hopefully they can find support on one of these major moving averages, like the 20 and the 50 day. In the case of this CrowdStrike, the 20-day would be a nice level, for example. You know, if you can pull back, go sideways for a few weeks or months, that’s a good thing. We get new bases to play next year. That’s where you make your money — buying off of solid bases, coming out of a long consolidation or a pullback, not when these things are already extended. You know, buying something that looks like this is not a great idea. Buying something that looks like this is a very good idea. Buying something that looks like this is not a good idea. So buying something like this looks like a very good idea — just like I did when I bought Square right here when it came out of this flag. That’s where your edge is. Let the crazies buy these things here. Don’t play the crazy game. They’re all gonna go bankrupt. Buy off of solid setups, solid bases. Don’t be a victim — be proactive. Learn what works and what doesn’t work. Don’t be a victim. It’s a choice, okay? It’s a choice. It’s not something that is predetermined by birth. It’s a choice you make.”

@HappyPunch big butt = generate more force. He doesn't even have to turn his hips when he kicks or swing really hard when he punches. Sean is weird.

Sean O’Malley said he was in shock seeing heavyweight Alex Pereira for the first time 🤨 “His ass is bigger than a Miami b*tch’s BBL. It was mind-blowing. Holy sh*t. If I didn’t know better, I might’ve f*cking jacked off. It was huge. I looked at his butt for like 7 seconds.”

@MoistMango12 thanks!

@AltWalid226 I'm probably not the guy to ask if you know nothing about options 😀 but you could start with my interview which outlined a somewhat similar trade to this and do some googling/ai for options basics

Showed up for the one day and back to break. Undersized per the opportunity but given the gap down was somewhat difficult to get in. Think they are probably swings (strong close gap down+d2 unwind variant) and would have taken some swing exposure but the strong bounce+aversion to swinging so I can stay on break. QUBT just a side bet thought it might full retrace, still might by end of week. Was asleep middle of the day when they bottomed 😂

@ShakePryzby1 I trade small cap and I traded a normal stock other day I couldn't bring myself to risking a dollar per share. Is this normal on these large caps? You risk more than dollar or so.

Everybody wanna be a trader, nobody wanna deal with real trader shit! Shakeouts are all apart of the game. Brutally shaken out of $AA earlier today. Felt I had such a nice entry location yesterday, especially when the crowd is so focused on AI/tech they don't see how beautifully metals/mining are shaping up. Avoided getting shaken out on the initial gap down this morning (shouts to the 15 minute rule) only to have my stop taken out later in the day --- minutes before going vertical. "Somebody's got to mark the lows!!" Monthly chart looking like a clear shot to 90 bucks now. Tough! But unfortunately I will have this happen 1000 more times in my career. "If you're not feeling stupid on a regular basis, you're not managing risk."

@PradeepBonde when do you move stop to breakeven same day as entry? I know some traders that don't do it and are ok with stock hitting their stops. Thank you

See this by Toby Crabel

@Tradr_G what do you think your edge is? I know a couple of guys they watch level 2 and tape when trading large caps and they wait for their setups with like a checklist. You have more success than them and your trading is like freesetyle. AM ALSO A RULE BREAKER 😂

This is a 18min recording of yesterdays open. It is hard to see all what I am doing, the order entry I use is off to the left and not shown. The order buttons I also use do show however below my chart. My alerts half show. I nailed $AAOI yet lost on it, I think due to it is a new name for me and I did not trust it. You do not see all my side charts of each name on a 30 min, 10 day chart. On the top left of my chart you can see U-P&L which is my unrealized amount. And on the right you can see the number of shares and the P&L. It can still be confusing if I held the name overnight. The P&L number can show the amount of gain from how much I was down overnight to the amount of gain today. You will see I set a lot of alerts. IBKR changed something on me with the alert window. You will also see me always peeling shares, this is one thing I have learned to get good at over the last year. If the market or name turns on you, you always have some profit. Not all of the profit, not the top, not the bottom but a piece and this is what is important if trading. They do not all work right away, some like $DELL for example did not work and I am in with small size and will keep it. $DELL is a great company. I was very quick to cut losers for the most part in this video. I find it very interesting when I do take the time to watch it back. You will also see me put in limit orders at a higher price, some people use targets. I use random round numbers and funny enough they are like magnets and get hit very often. You will see I am very quick to get in a name, I do not think about a stop or worry about a stop. I intend for the trade to work. I do use alerts as a stop area. You will see if I do get out I set an alert right away to get back in. Remember "you can always get back in" As for size, I try and get in with small size and see if it will work, then add and depending on how well I know the name and how it is moving I will add larger size.

@BornInvestor @Qullamaggie Do you think he has all his rules written down somehwere or just in the back of his mind? I always break my rules on friday I averaged down long side on CUE lost entire weeks gains. Held after support was broken. Before market open I decided no trade day but am impulsive.

@AltWalid226 @Qullamaggie All of the Market Wizards are done like this. It doesn’t tell me much new tbh but that’s because I’ve watched all his streams but I guess the most striking part is follow your rules!

Sunday reading the @Qullamaggie chapter of Market Wizards : The Next Generation. One of the moments that got me serious about trading was stumbling across Kristjian’s interview with Chat with Traders. Have lost count of how many times I’ve listened back to that.

@AfroditeWalker @aperiwal93 @TradeZella how big is your account? like a 6 fig or mid 5 fig. This is impressive I think my account is too small for swing trading. Nice work tho. I like how your losses are small. My losers are bigger than gains but I day trade.

@aperiwal93 @TradeZella My risk is 0.25% or less and I buy puts only when I see a good short opportunity like $CAR “Decapitation strategy “

March monthly stats @TradeZella

@Greez_trades how? I think if you keep averaging down on the long or short side, you will lose A LOT. Most of my losses are from averaging down on long side. I NEED TO STOPPP

If only he saw some of my charts 😂 it’s actually +EV

@Greatstockpix The same can be said for the long side.

I watched a guy average up on a short position several times yesterday on one of those low float parabolic runners. I think he ended up getting away with it, but I knew something he didn't. I knew that this could very possibly be his last trade ever. He had no idea.

@EternaLEnVy1991 avoid*

@EternaLEnVy1991 i didn't aboid ended up giving entire weeks profit ughhh CUE.

dont let losers snowball take a break come back stronger friday first day of month real co biotech monday r:r china avoid nano avoid penny avoid debt avoid rigged avoid subscribe to my discord when im on DD thanks see you later very useful wowz

@Peoplewish I watched your youtube video you have a great voice. You should do like a qullamaggie swing trading school playlist or something.

Funny story about the origin of chart theme for me. As many of you know, aside from Qullamaggie and a very, very select few other readings or people I’ve learned from, the vast majority of my knowledge has come from systematically studying charts day in and day out for tens of thousands of hours. The first big theme I really butchered was Quantum’s front side. I didn’t miss it completely. I actually got long QUBT on 11-04 and 11-05-24 after that offering, but had well over a million shares and shook myself out during the violent candle the following day. I didn’t realize chart theme at the time. I didn’t have the slightest understanding of it. I didn’t understand that RGTI, QVTS, IO, and Q all had basically the same chart emerging from the same pattern on the same theme. After it was all said and done, I basically came to the conclusion that I completely missed Quantum. It should have been a 500%+ move on a 10–20% portfolio allocation.

@EternaLEnVy1991 Who is your goat? I thought you were the goat.

my goat is record day im just normal ass day

@Stefan_Trades @EvilShorting did you also nail this trade?

@EvilShorting insane zamp good job mate

Ohh man, what a beast, my biggest trade ever.. Couldn't keep adding after a certain point cause i maxed out my BP .Tried couple times yesterday but very conservatively since i've been burned from LC trades like this in the past. $CAR
