Here's a little factoid most premium sellers seem to forget! The market is priced for anxiety. The expected move is rarely greater than the actual move. Take that info as you will. For me, my brain processes it like this...most of the crap you worry about rarely happens. Learn how to play golf instead lol

Good morning ☀️!! I’d like to plant this seed in your heart. ❤️
Instead of criticizing folks that might be in a tough spot with their tickers, perhaps take the time to help them navigate the rough waters. We don’t know how they are dealing emotionally, financially or spiritually even.
Focus on your journey and ask yourself why it gives you great satisfaction to see others struggle. What happened that hardened your heart so much?
Think on that and Don’t be a douche. The stats of folks taking their lives on big drawdowns is startling to say the least.
Be mindful.
This is your pro tip of the day.

The next time some troll tells you that record low volume doesn’t mean anything show them this chart. Monday & Tuesday were 23yr lows for SPY volume during a full trading day.

So @IBKR I was just liquidated in a full position because I was told my Reg T Margin with Loan value went over the 10% threshold. My Net Liq value however was not at 10%. I was liquidated due to it exceeding then the 10% of Reg T with Loan value. Please refer to the this letter.

Pro tip for men out there...
Never go to a licensed therapist; they always side with women.
Instead, use ChatGPT as your therapist.
You're welcome btw!

I have talked to 2 traders this week that lost huge amounts of money. I know every feeling that goes into it. You are not alone, any of you. Being a long term profitable trader is not a straight line. I made millions by 35, by 43-44 I was driving Uber 7 days a week to feed my wife & 5 kids. I took a hard look at who I was & how I lived. I took a deep dive into what worked for me trading & what I did to blow up. I was a very well known & experienced CME pit trader. I set about to develop a process of trading that fullfilled 3 requirements, it had to be consistent, repeatable & scalable. At 58 I am healthier, happier, stronger in spite of heart issues and prostate cancer. I have deep and meaningful relationships with people of all ages and all over the world.
This is a marathon not a sprint. There are no shortcuts, no easier softer way. Do the work. It is worth it.

The number one reason SMART people fail at the stock market is because they think it has to make sense.
It doesn't, trust me...

8 lessons I wish I knew as a beginning trader. #8 is the most important.
1) You can't get badly hurt if you size properly and take your stops.
I can't overemphasize this one for beginners. When you're learning to trade, the goal is to stay in the market long enough that once you find your edge, you still have the capital to win.
Only risk what you're willing to lose. Every trade should have a predetermined risk: the dollars committed and the level where you stop out for a loss. Accept that risk before you enter. And if it reaches your stop out level for the love of all that is holy please take your stop. You can always get back in. Could your trade end up working? Sure, but you need your account to work.
Every trade also needs a reasonable, attainable profit target. Most trades I take need at least a 2:1 reward-to-risk. There are some high-probability scalps where I'm fine with 1:1, but as a beginner I'd hold fairly firm at 2:1. At 2:1, you only need to win 34 out of 100 trades to be in the green. That gives you tons of room to work with as you find your way...
