    AMC selling hard here. Be careful on GME if you are long, if it follows AMC, it is likely to halt down instantly on resumption. My Lightspeed broker is showing a net imbalance to the Sell side on GME. I am calling a halt down.

    NCLH, had positions down in the 23-24 range I have been accumulating since Jan. Paying off very well now. Kills me that I had a very sizeable position in DAL at ~$26 last autumn. Sold when we hit low 30s. I should have played the long game on that one. We are near touching $50 today. We all...

    This is why knowing your support levels is everything. (Not out of the woods, but we are not steering in the dark!!) SPY 386.14 Pivot support well respected.

    I was kind of expecting the SPY to back test the 20 day. Didn't think it would happen this quickly premarket. There is a 386.14 pivot below that it also tested and held. Hopefully just putting in an early low, reconfirm, and we get upward movement. Got plans in place for either directional...

    Another important lesson yesterday is position sizing and risk. In my swing trading, I am never more than 30-40% invested at absolute maximum (no margin). If the market turns against you and you haven't cut a loser, perhaps in a stock you really believe in, you can average down. This can be...

    Always have a trade plan. That is especially important for taking profits. I covered this a while back about scaling out profit along the way. I personally take a small portion off the table around 2-5%, then 7-10%, etc depending on price action. If you are sitting waiting for the entire big...

    Often times, you see this arbitrary half dollar priced buy / sell orders on lower priced stocks. Eg: you got a nice SPAC entry at $10.50, you can bet there are people who have lined up sell orders at half dollar increments. Trying to set a sell limit right on those half dollars can lead to...

    Sometimes the price can spike down (or up) to these very well established lines of support or resistance. Placing your limit order exactly to the penny has a high chance of not being filled. I usually +0.01 above support or -0.01 below resistance to have far better chance of hitting the fill on...

    PSTH: add at 27. Re-buy of CPUH/U: right at 10.95 (I had sold the recent spike to capitalize on irrational strength - trade the range) XPOA: add at 10.60 (loading more shares at low price) F: 11.20s (F has been great on strength, already profited on swings on this. Part of the rotation into...

    Alive and well. Red today (realized) on some swings, but my losses today were smaller than some of my single day gains in February. This means I am sizing / positioning trades accurately for risk. Losses happen, it is all about how you manage risk. Bought some quality at the bottom, but...

    I missed a GSAH reload when it dropped <$12. It bounced solid back over $13. I was trying to manage other swing positions.

    I had a small PSTH add at 27. Was hoping for more red for a bigger add in the 25.xx range.

    Keep in mind, most happily post their big gains and are silent about their losses. Don't FOMO on others' cherry picked stock / crypto trade posts.

    September 8, 2020 flush on TSLA was the ultimate dip buy. It hit $330 and recovered in days, then on to run to the all time highs. Really not sure where the bottom is on this pull back, but tethering your company to something like Bitcoin seemed questionable to me. Even if you were a full on...

    Not sure if you had an open order out there. Lowest premarket price hit $33.53. Seems like it has bottomed for now and trading at $38 currently.

    And, with Bitcoin taking a shit again this morning, I expect more Tesla red. *Edit* Just logged in, god damn. TSLA sitting at ~$650 early premarket.

    Travel rotation reopening plays continue as well. DAL up nearly 5% today, as well as some solid cruise line gains. TSLA took a huge position in Bitcoin, so the Bitcoin dump this morning simply caused further downward pressure on TSLA, which already had big outflows last week. ARK have high...

    Nice gap down on the SPY. Bounced exactly off the 20 Day moving average premarket this morning. It will be interesting to see if it holds. Time to go shopping soon. I feel a lot more comfortable buying nearer the MAs vs the last couple weeks of extension that @Sanrith Descartes had also pointed...

    It’s not all doom and gloom. I got frustrated and by autumn took it all in my own hands and started actively investing and day trading. My returns still beat the S&P in 2020 and this year I am up 10% in the retirement account and well over 20% in my cash acct, despite being (what I consider)...

    Absolutely under normal circumstance of panic selling. Tech bubble crash.. predictable. Housing crash?

    Missed my post somewhere in there. I pulled my entire 401k out of S&P 500 index on February 11, 2020 and put it into bonds. I think I missed the top by a week. Followed the rona news obsessively and as soon as I saw the supply chain getting shut down (China ports closing left and right), I knew...
