@natlungfy getting paid to do house chores you were gonna do anyway? sign me up!

Exclusive: DoorDash launched a new app “Tasks” that pays couriers in some US markets if they submit audio and video clips to help improve AI and robotics models.
Many of these tasks are completing household chores while capturing footage with a body-worn camera — data that would be helpful for humanoid robots.
Instructions: scrub and rinse at least 5 dishes with your hands, hold each clean plate steady in frame for a few seconds before moving to the next one

@TraderQuest150 Nice! I caught the massive long in the middle of NY (on MNQ). Recovered last night’s Asia losses and broke even for the day.
English
Recap of today's winning trade (+20 points).
Traded the breakout above high of day on $NQ on the 2-min (11:04 AM candle).
After getting stopped out on the first attempt, I waited for bears to fail at pushing price below the breakout candle.
Entry at 529.75 with 7.75 points of risk (1 mini).
Target: high of day.
Never went more than 3 points in drawdown, but the pullback on the post-entry candle from 548 to 530 got me acting like a madman.
As price recovered, my focus was to close as PnL increased (above 548). Price broke and held above 540, then as it pushed into the high 40s, I closed at 549.75 for a 2.5R win.

Day 135 1 for 2: +$194 today. Not going to lie...ending green on the day is somewhat of a relief, but my mental game was not sharp at all. Took a small loss after being up 1.5R and hesitated to close literally at the peak of the move. That one hurt my ego real bad. I’ve rarely felt this frustrated after a loss, most likely due to unresolved emotions from the past few trading days. Closed my winning trade as PnL was increasing, but surprised myself by screaming at NQ during a nasty pullback, already anticipating I’d get stopped out again. Price recovered as I regained some mental focus and forced myself to close on an uptick. Didn’t like that version of me today. But tomorrow will be much better.

@BrandonWealth I use an ApexDesk Elite Pro Series, it’s great! No regrets
English
I need a new office desk.
Do you have any recommendations ?

@jamaljofx I'm still in eval but this is a legit fear of mine once I'm in funded

@RensingTrades I exited a few weeks ago and took the loss. Couldn't deal with it anymore.
English
So $MSTX had a reverse split
Never been in LEAPS of a stock where this has happened so just trying to learn how to navigate this
Do yall think I should just keep holding or should I close these?
Thanks!

@bigbobinvests FinX’s current engagement farming template. Can’t wait to see them disappear.
English
Okay I’m seeing a shit load of post from my friends saying they are annoyed with the
“ my friend is 35”
“ they make 67k a year “
I just want to know are you guys getting those posts too ? I genuinely have not seen a single one on my FYP until someone sent them to me 😭

@tradertheory I’ve blown a few evals which made me want to quit.
But sticking with it has revealed a lot about my psychology. I stopped revenge trading and tightened risk management. Not giving up!
English
What almost made you quit trading for good?
More traders relate to this than you think.

@ThatRothGuy With all the changes rolling out on X to disincentivize impression farming, I think accounts with great, genuine content will shine!
English
@cantucapital I would love to get monetized, and I need to remind myself that isn't what this is all about. It's nice, but focus on learning and sharing.
English
Teach don't preach.
The purpose of this account was to do two things. Track my journey and help others by sharing my wins and losses.
Somewhere along the way, monetization and high impressions took over.
That's exhausting.
It's time to get back to real, genuine content.

@RoaringHammy 6 cards, paid in full every month on auto-pay. This is why budgeting is important! I would never spend more than I can afford.
English
Are you able to pay off your credit card bills every month? Apparently 1 out of 3 people are unable to do so😳 Financial Stress is real these days

@BowTiedRazorbck I’m planning to elect S-Corp after 1–2 years of LLC performance data. Mapping it out with my CPA, but for the short term W2 withholdings are smoothing things out
English
If you’re self-employed making over $50K a year and you’re still a single member LLC (or Sole Proprietorship), you’re probably overpaying in taxes.
Here’s why:
With your LLC (or SP): You pay self-employment tax (15.3%) on nearly EVERY DOLLAR of profit.
With an S-Corp: You pay yourself a reasonable salary, pay SE tax on that - and take the rest as a distribution.
Distributions aren’t subject to self-employment tax.
On $150K in profit that difference can be $10,000+ back in your pocket.
Talk to a CPA. You’ll save way more from the switch than it costs.

@cantucapital Better than my -1.6%. Not a single green name for me😂

@JL_BYWealth I’m so ready. It’s exhausting seeing my feed filled with spam. I exclusively follow finance accounts, and many have drifted away from quality content in favor of impression farming.
English
The era of profitable spam on X is finally ending.
In 30 days, the financial incentive for bot farms is expected to turn negative. For those of us here for real FinX discussions, this is a massive win.
Less noise creates more room for actual alpha and genuine engagement.
Who’s ready for a cleaner feed?
Nikita Bier@nikitabier
The financial incentive to spam on X will decline enormously over the next 30 days and soon be negative.

I’ve bought $VOO at the “top” many times.
People said I was an idiot or the S&P 500 is going to crash.
I’ve been buying since 2019…
I’m still up +$39,421
Don’t bet against America.

@aincomeinvestor I wanted to get a Bilt card for this reason, but they ruined their program with 2.0 launch imo. If Robinhood ever did this it would change the game!
English
Hear me out.
Robinhood credit card perk that earns 1-2% back on rent and mortgages.
