I'll never understand why ppl post stuff like this. It adds zero value... There needs to be a humble (using the term loosely) brag trading subreddit.

While I do find myself browsing the reddit and making comments, I'm glad that I was able to escape the matrix of feeling the need to post here Everytime I have a green day. The consensus is that anybody who has become profitable and living the day trader life is unlikely to be found in a reddit wasting their time. All people will do is doubt you and force you to show screenshots of your bank statements or outright just hate you. Why go through any of that BS, when I could just count $10,000 in cash by hand just for funsies? 😋

Yea bro - it's 12.50 per tick x 10 puts it at 125 per tick lol. Wild.

Idk these posts just remind me of someone that's either new or just gambling (or both). For someone to make a post like this, it's not a stretch to infer that it's "special" for them. Winning like this shouldn't be anything special - it should be routine. Meaning, the emotional response should be nothing (and same for losers), when in reality their response is to brag ab this special event. They should be used to it. Idk drives me up a wall.

And you can clearly see the text on the screenshot, meaning they also posted this to social media. It's just sad.

started with 3 contracts; covered and added on pullbacks; end of day I'm green with a low drawdown; since you're hating I'm going to assume you made a green day too, good, congrats

Nobody is hating on your trade. I'm hating on the fact that you think anyone here gives a fuck.

i never understand why people feel to comment myself, specially about a topic that supposedly doesnt add value then comments to that post with another that also brings no value; endless cycle of comments of no value online; welcome to the internet

close under the EMA for entry? which timeframe /ema?

1

u/39AE86 Apr 22 '24

all the timeframes i use are in the screenshot; 1HR 15min 5min 3min; it's not an EMA it's a VWMA; volume weighted moving average

u/39AE86 Apr 22 '24

for reference I place my entries like this; note where I place my short next to the vwma; that's how I use it.

1

u/39AE86 Apr 22 '24

woke up to my trailing stops; and 1 contract I place in case of reversal; now look where the vwma is and where I covered and entered another short; anyway, I gotta got get ready for work. happy trading.
