Trade Discussion and Analysis

Recommended Posts

looks like overnight limits are maximum 5%...

I thought circuit breakers only came into play after 10% but that's during the day

 

It's turning into an ugly open for the stocks... but not just the stock markets.

 

If you look at a lot of the currencies, and in particular the less-common currencies and emerging market currencies, you'll see a HUGE ramp up in volatility during the last 3 days. Incredible moves today in GJ. Too bad there wasn't any historic data to use. But one good thing about these moves is that it's showing us where the hourly S/R lines exist. That's good. It should make it more tradeable when it starts going back up.

We are all doing real time analysis & trading in the chat room these days...

 

That's too bad. It's a pain in the neck to read those logs.

 

Hey, did Wasp ever show up at your doorstep, Firewalker? I was half-expecting (well, actually not really expecting, but it would have been cool nonetheless) a visit this December while he was on holidays. But then, the worlds a might big place, and there are a ton more attractive things to see out there than my ugly face. I hope he's having a good holiday.

Somebody actually does that? :)

 

We're ready to go by 0730 your time, so unless you have a long commute, why not come in for a half hour or so? It's often pretty much over within the first ninety minutes anyway.

I am about mate and never made it to the US at all in the end. After a brief trip o/s I have had some family issues to sort out which are still dragging and so you'll get your visit later this year instead!

 

Not visited FW either... There really ARE better things in the world to see!!!!!!

 

Hope you had a good Christmas and new year and your trading is coming along nicely?

I'm working the Asian and European currency sessions, so I'm up all night and in bed by 5 am... and wake up in time to catch the last two hours of the US session. Just a wee bit too early and way too late to contribute.

As always, there's room to improve the trading. Theres winners and losers. Just have to stay ahead of the game. Took a little over 220 pips yesterday on a well-behaved cable trade. Planted my stop a little too close and so I've missed the rest of this ride down. But profit is profit.

 

Had a good Christmas. We've seen more snow this year than since I was a teenager AGES ago. Weird, but fun.

 

I hope you're able to resolve your family issues. They can really throw things off kilter.

 

What do you mean, you're usually done by Monday? You trade Sunday and you're done on Monday? Don't mean to pry, but those are pretty narrow hours.

Pretty narrow requirements these days! 200 pips and I am done for the week and more than happy!

So could we call that "semi-retirement" or are you just taking entries that meet a narrow criteria?

Good for you. I have always found it ironic that for may of us freedom is one of the main things that attract us to trading, we then end up slaves to the screen.

The former, although not quite semi-retirment, just minimum exposure!

 

I'd call it lazy! But after 10 years (or more?) in the business, who can blaim him :)

 

or 'blame' me even! ;)

My sentiments exactly!

    • 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.
