Feels good.

@Tom__Capital Sounds like you are where Sweden was 10-15 years ago, loses immigration policy in the EU (world?). How did it go?

If you flood a country with high levels of immigration from one culture and refuse to demand assimilation, basic maths takes over. The bigger that group becomes as a share of the population, the more your country turns into the one they left behind.Tony Burke and others ignoring this aren't just wrong, they're retarded and are handing Australia over by demographics. Fit in, or don't come.

@Peoplewish Nice, bookmarked! 😜

The best technical risk on, risk off indicator in the market, especially if you’re a trend follower like me, is the weekly MACD (6,20,9). Once MACD crosses down and price loses its uptrend, just wait for the first weekly close with a MACD up cross. That’s your confirmation. You don’t need breadth. You don’t need sentiment. You don't need NAAIM. You don't need COCK data. You don't need an over complicated dashboard. You don’t need any other indicator. All of these things are noise. You only need PRICE and MACD. Don’t believe me? Go back and look for yourself across any time period, then be the judge. MACD is a timing tool. This concept applies across all timeframes, even intraday, where it helps you dial in precise entries while aligning with higher timeframe key levels. It took me five years of relentless study and commitment to continuous improvement to boil risk on down to something this simple. If you follow a system like this with discipline, and you aren’t already, your results should go parabolic. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have questions.

@TraderMagus You see any signs of buyers stepping in, or just shorts getting squeezed right now?

L bozo nance shorts

@TedHZhang No idea where we going but seeing the rs lately and not puking on news like today seems quite positive - also feels like the type of headline you usually see at a bottom.

Pretty textbook short setup in Bitcoin $IBIT

@TraderMagus What in the Edvard Munch am I looking at. That can’t be healthy 😅

Monday NY Session Build, Scale out, Add back, Close 2 hours of work Lots of executions are overlapping so you cant see all of them Monday to Thursday every week for years now Run up the likes and I'll share more, might even explain the setup

@karpathy Just one-shot it with Claude. Right? /claude fix defaults of package management project npm so that it does not spread through users at random and at scale via unpinned dependencies.

New supply chain attack this time for npm axios, the most popular HTTP client library with 300M weekly downloads. Scanning my system I found a use imported from googleworkspace/cli from a few days ago when I was experimenting with gmail/gcal cli. The installed version (luckily) resolved to an unaffected 1.13.5, but the project dependency is not pinned, meaning that if I did this earlier today the code would have resolved to latest and I'd be pwned. It's possible to personally defend against these to some extent with local settings e.g. release-age constraints, or containers or etc, but I think ultimately the defaults of package management projects (pip, npm etc) have to change so that a single infection (usually luckily fairly temporary in nature due to security scanning) does not spread through users at random and at scale via unpinned dependencies.

@RealSimpleAriel @markminervini If you realize that you can also learn from others mistakes, that you actually do not need to repeat them yourself, you are almost guaranteed to succeed. That’s extremely difficult though (at least for me).

If anyone tells you that in order to be successful in trading you need to make some unknown discovery on your own... This is a lie!! - I learned about volatility contraction and progressive exposure from Mark. @markminervini. - I learned about momentum bursts and Episodic pivots from Pradeep @PradeepBonde - I learned about the importance of creating a model book for myself with 100s of past examples. As well as the idea of focusing on higher ADR stocks from Kristjan @Qullamaggie - I learned about stage analysis from Stan @StanWeinstein13 - I learned how to read and interpret COT data from Jason @Crowded_Mkt_Rpt - I learned the right side of the V concept and proper bet sizing on A+ opportunities from Lance @TheOneLanceB - I learned to think a little more contrarian from watching @TheShortBear - I learned about the flat base breakout and value in leading groups from @PatrickWalker56 - I learned about the HVC/HVE edge from @AmeetRai - I learned about trading more aggressively during high momentum periods from @DanZanger - I learned about the Undercut and rally or Double top short sale setups from Gil Morales @gilmoandco - I learned how to think about creating and implementing systems from @Peoplewish - I learned the failed follow through setup on an intraday timeframe from @InvestorsLive - I learned about the importance of prior day channels from @danshep55 - I learned about support and resistance gaps for entries from @NickDrendel - I learned about using the 50sma as a guide to measure extensions from @jfsrev - I learned about creating a daily trading plan from Marcel Link. - I learned about the CANSLIM methodology from Bill O'neal I'm sure there are many I missed but the point is: Trading knowledge is passed down from one generation to the next. But it is up to us, the trader, to implement what we have learned in a safe manner while we put together all the pieces for ourself. We live in a time where you DO NOT need to make up some magical elixir for trading in order to be successful. All the people mentioned above have found an exploitable edge in the market, and like myself relentlessly execute that edge over and over. I am personally grateful for all of the educators I've had along my journey; which is part of the reason I so willingly share any bit of knowledge I acquire along the way. The same way they all graciously imparted knowledge on me.

@TraderMagus What’s most impressing; he does it with light background charts.

It's been a pleasure watching Doc continuously level up as a trader year after year Seeing him go from student to master in a short time keeps me motivated He crushed this short How long until he overtakes me?

@CFlanders7 x.com/Trader_Dante/s…

I think a lot of newer traders get a warped view of what is normal because they get to see exceptional traders on the internet who may or may not even be around in another 5, 10 years! (I hope I am). I was talking with a friend the other day. If someone posted Drucks' results, up 30% a year on average for 15+ years straight, they would be regarded as average by a lot of Fintwit.

@Trader_Dante Reminiscences of a Cunt Operator

This morning I have finally closed the Gold short I took on 3rd March. It’s been the biggest trade of my career. I want to thank everyone in EFL who sat through it with me and had to listen to me talking about it incessantly. As I said at the time, I was a long way outside my comfort zone. I’ve made tens of thousands of trades across 25 years. I’m in at one level and out at the next. I’ve held something like this only a handful of times. I should feel elated. And part of me does. But I’ve spent the last three days writing my book and reliving a lot of painful times. This morning I’m too numb to feel what I probably should. That’s trading. That’s life.

@jfsrev getting there

Useful Symbols for a quick bird’s-eye view on your Tradingview watchlist panel. Almost all of them are approaching 6-month low level. One more round of capitulation would likely set up some very attractive long-bias opportunities for quick bounces.

@lBattleRhino As those trading for a breakout. Whatever direction this eventually goes it's going to be epic.

Those trying to trade for a breakdown have likely fully lost their minds now

Wow I just woke up, time to see if anything went wrong in the world Yes it did Time to see if stocks moved No they did not Can’t wait to do it all again tmrw

@trikcode Only to realize the bug was due to a typo in a variable name.

I really miss traditional coding days. Going through documentation line by line. Digging into Stack Overflow threads from 2013. Reading random dev blogs at 2am. Watching 40-minute YouTube tutorials just to fix one bug. It felt… real.

@stamatoudism Range/mean reverting strategies probably been crushing it though.

If someone says they’ve been crushing it in this milkshake market… run

Getting filled twice by unknown men, that’s what I call a good day @Trader_Dante

@ZaStocks It’s just this app though. Not much doom in the ”real” world, not more than usual at least.

Fear and doom sell, I think that’s been made clear as of late. Every major technological innovation in history has been net positive for society, making humans smarter + more capable. As AI doomerism explodes, taking the optimistic side feels contrarian. I’ll take that side.

@paracurve @Stnxbt @Trader_XO Glad to see you are still around🙂

@erikcarell @Stnxbt @Trader_XO Crazy how often I see these posted all these years later. Volume helps. Notably high RVOL that never gets reclaimed.....price remains static on the "newly found value" and not much later, initiates the move.

Clearance Thrust Pattern @Trader_XO pointed this out on multiple streams and I have implemented it into my prep ever since. The reason it keeps working? In trading, human nature makes you feel like the best opportunities are always counter trend because you are used to the older prices. Your mind tends to think price must snap back towards the mean at some moment so you fade the trend and trade very counter trend move with tight stops. It feels good, it feels like maximum opportunity is to get on board of a large rebalance of price, you start thinking the trend has to end with a V shape soon. I use this primarily for context / trade management ($ETH example was also a valid three drives but also a CT)
