@MikeKingTrades Agreed. I've tagged @dastrader. Make sure they see this, because this shit happens on almost every high volume open and I am sick of seeing Thinkorswim working perfectly.

1. most insane day I have ever seen 2. DAS is a worthless sack of shit

@dastrader @dastrader I've kept quiet on other high volume opens recently, but you just blew a HISTORIC day for traders.

@dastrader with the usual quote jumping bullshit on every high volume day. issue still ongoing and missed the entire bounce and continuation trade. sick of this shit for $150/month.

@hackertrader @ChihaiGicu you generally want the 3rd or 4th day gap on the 3rd leg of a move. this was on the second, and one could even argue the first as the daily is looking like a mini cup and handle. I always avoid any parabolic shorts that in any way look like they're moving out of a consolidation.

@ChihaiGicu Based on the backtest..

$SMCI today fits the criteria's for a parabolic short

@TheMattDiamond Still going sheeeeesh

$TSLA end of day move insanity Not a single red 5min candle

@TheShortBear Feels like everything needs a biblical gap down.

The market is not behaving. Towards the end of a bull market or at least of a leg within the uptrend you usually see one external and one internal behavior. The first is that you see a huge amount of P&L posts and the second is that the portfolio is usually filled to the brinks with the most volatile assets. I am usually early during a trend, make my money in the early to mid phase of the bull market and end up giving a chunk back when it collapse. It happens almost in the same manner each time. What ends up happening is that the high-flyers start to go into ranges, which at first glance look like accumulation but actually are distribution. They start building these ranges after their biggest moves, leading all to see them. Warning signs: - Range period extends past usual range, turning a short squeeze into a big volume range, with players at high averages. -Sluggish breakouts barely holding -Insane multiples and weakness in prior leading groups I usually end up overleveraged, slowly starting to turn my wheels in the sand and by the time I realize what is happening I am already down from the al time highs and have little liquidity to accept and cut the losses. This happened to me in 2021 with SPACs, In Crypto then too and in China earlier this year as well to name a few. Now looking at the market we are seeing the same signs. -P&Ls are floating around -multiples like $PLTR are insane -my active portfolio started to fill up with stocks -leading themes such as Nuclear, Drones are moving lower. -Crypto stocks are showing relative weakness all while $BTC moves back under 100k. Also " recession-proof" assets such as $DG and $DLTR are looking like they are catching a bid. To me there is enough signs, after a wild year, that are pointing towards reducing risk in those types of plays. It has been weeks of back to back to back breakouts and quick money, but this is starting to feel sluggish. I do not wish to hold these at the current stage. I will continue to operate by generating cash flow through such trades as the trade I posted on $COIN today and redeploying it when I see bargains and opportunities to start into the highest quality assets. I am in particular interested in markets outside the USA given the premium paid on most assets. Recent buys include: - $MELI - $NU - $ASML - $DG I am happy to revisit should we develop otherwise. strong convicted opinion held loosely.

@Gfunk0311 This thing's on its way to 270.

$MSTR really? still down here while #BTC puts up new highs? some shorts are going to get smoked on this one, again. if you don't already own thousands of shares, and hundreds of leaps from the beginning of the year, that's on you. But now is another time I would suggest loading up. Some march21'25 calls. I would get anywhere from the $350s for $128 right now or the $450s for $98. x.com/Gfunk0311/stat…

@TradewithPaul_ @daytradingzoo I agree, and I think retail participation has been here. In my 8-year trading career this is the trappiest action I've witnessed in both equities and crypto. consolidation breakouts getting sold into and dumped on on almost every timeframe, every day. massive rug pull on the way.

@daytradingzoo What if everything is done already? Its too obvious, second time around the pumps are not the same.

What if... Everybody is waiting for alt season to begin after a second rip in BTC dom like in 2020 But the markets don't want to make it so easy and alt season has already started.

@daytradingzoo looks like I missed the memo about every stock on earth only moving up in v-shaped rips

btc down 0.4% i think this is the capitulation low up from here

@Watamelon17 Nice list, check out EOSE too

my watchlist right now, i think this is the biggest watchlist i have had so far this year. Not all of them are ready right now. I already have 100% of my capital used right now though, so probably won't make any trades today or maybe 1-2 depending on if i sell a position

@mmiketrading Thanks for the write up

@AlphaTrader00 EXK

Live shot of me watching my new* miner position grind higher today. Any guesses?

@TheMattDiamond Just don't look at how far it tanked after covering...

@TheMattDiamond Leggooo

@Avi_Mahtani @BearBullTraders Maybe I'm misunderstanding but your long plan was above PDC? You actually went long where you said your plan was short?

The $TSLA long came through! #DayTrading #BBTfamily @BearBullTraders

@TheMattDiamond Iron Man Triathlon on deck

Solid run 🏃🏻‍♂️ #stayhard

@QC_Status Are live trading systems down? Are they going to come up again before market open?

@MikeBellafiore There are traders who only take A+ trades. Wouldn’t it make sense to use equalized risk then?

There are traders who risk the same amount per trade. There are traders who do not risk MUCH MUCH MORE on their A+ trades. Are these traders really just saying: I do not know what my A+ trades are? Should they? Should you? 👇

@TheMattDiamond Legggoooo. Nice mountains over there in Utah

New boots and board. Ready to shred!
