basicly made a school boy error. On ES when there are two micro value areas close together then ES will take the middle of the two. I took my eye of the ball and took the first value area without looking at the one above. Once i realised it was too late. So i reversed my stop for the short of 31.50

 

31.25 being the price i should of shorted in the first place if i wasn't too busy eating a baked potato :)

If you don't mind me asking... How many minutes do you need to determine where value has developed itself?

 

Depends, it's an art not a science. I know that isn't the answer you want to hear, but thats how it is.

 

The way i see it, reading developing value in the market and trading on it is like teaching someone how to read the tape. You've just got to put the screen time in to learn it properly. It can't be put into a box

Survived that by the skin of my teeth 814 low (so far). I expect big rises next week. After a 1200 point fall, gotta go back to 12400 ...

 

You have to be open for everything I guess, but where would that rise come from?

Hey ho...

 

going into today, first areas that i'm looking to take a swing trade off are 1329.50 and 1319. From where the market is now i'm looking to short 29.50 and get long off 1319. If these points aren't reached then i'm just gonna be scalping of developing levels as usual. Graph below of the two levels on the profile.

Hey, sorry these aren't live, been having a big debate in the office with my brother about scalping and trend following... long story...

 

Anyway, had a long in C period just after the period opened from 20.75. The reason why i took it is because (as you can see on the chart) when we made the lows in the inital balance during B period, this market was swiftly rejected. Then when C opened we had over 3000 sat on the bid at 1320, plus with having micro value above in A period at 1324, chances where high for a move to the upside for the short of 1324. Bought 1320.75, boosted it for 2pts, then shorted 1324 for 2pts. Graph below. +6pts ES so far. Might call it a day.

    • It depends. If you have lots of money that you can buy a house without a loan and if you don't have any parents to sponsor then it is a good idea. Otherwise it might be a bad idea depending where in Canada you are heading to. I earned a good middle income in my home country and I migrated to Vancouver 5 years ago at the age of 35. I had to start right from the bottom, lowest of the low.. Now i am finally earning a middle income in Canada but I still cannot afford to buy a one bedroom apartment. Having left behind friends, family and home, most of the times I think it is not worth it.   In short, do not migrate if you already have a good life in your home country and you are happy. Only migrate to Canada if you really have to leave your home country say there is a war or something really bad. Discrimination still exists here and its really tough for newcomers unless you are super rich. Good luck. David Chong, Quora  
    • This is bigger than the internet. Bigger than mobile. Bigger than social media.   While everyone was distracted by stock market fluctuations and political theater…   Most people have NO IDEA what just happened last week with ChatGPT.   Their new memory feature allows ChatGPT to remember EVERYTHING about you across all your conversations.   Think about that for a minute...   While most tech companies have been collecting mere breadcrumbs about you - your likes, your clicks, your browsing history - OpenAI is now collecting the most valuable dataset in human history: your complete psychological profile.   This is Zuckerberg x 5,000.   The more you use ChatGPT, the more it understands you, becoming a supercharged reflection of yourself that improves at an exponential rate.   Are you a regular ChatGPT user?   Consider whether it’s time to turn off the “you can train on my information” feature. To prevent your data from being used for training while still using the memory feature:   Disable Model Training: Navigate to Settings > Data Controls. Toggle off "Improve the model for everyone". Manage Memory Settings: Go to Settings > Personalization > Memory. Here, you can: Turn off memory entirely. Delete specific memories. Use Temporary Chat for sessions that won't be saved or used for training. Now the investment implications…   Why This is Bigger Than You Think Consider this: the relationship between humans and ChatGPT is evolving beyond a mere tool.   People are now treating these AI assistants as friends, confidants, and even romantic partners.   I'm not making this up - there are already documented cases of people ending real human relationships to pursue “connections” with their AI companions.   A viral Instagram meme shows a person going through life with a glowing, featureless humanoid figure - representing ChatGPT - as their companion.   The post has over 1.1 million likes and comments like "Bro ChatGPT is like my best friend. Ain't even ashamed to say it" with 25,000 likes.   But here's where things get really interesting for investors and entrepreneurs...   Three Things to Watch For starters, hardware is the next big thing for the big players.   The iPhone form factor is dead.   It hasn't meaningfully changed in nearly a decade. The next evolution in hardware will be designed specifically to interface with these AI companions.   OpenAI is already working on hardware with Johnny Ive, the legendary designer behind the iPhone and iPod. But you can’t ignore Elon Musk’s edge here.   So what does all of this mean for you?   The companies that control the personal AI relationships will be worth trillions. OpenAI and Elon Musk will have the coziest moats. We're witnessing the birth of a new internet - one built on agents that can communicate with each other across platforms. Google's new agent-to-agent protocol allows AI agents to work together without sharing internal memories or tools. The hardware companies that create the perfect interface for these AI companions will dominate the next decade of technology. And almost nobody is talking about what this means.   My prediction? Within five years, most people will have a personal AI that knows them better than anyone else. And they will interact with it in ways that seem foreign today.   (And, yes, it will almost certainly have dystopian elements.)   In the meantime, the biggest gains won’t come from household names. And, right now, James is seeing a prime opportunity to invest in the most under-the-radar plays in AI…   For dirt cheap. By Chris C.
