August in Kansas City is hotter than two rats in a wool sock

@BdortsTrading @twinsight_x Post mine. I've lost 70k in 2 weeks.

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

@spacemnke 27k to 9k to 77k to 8k. Up took about two months, down took about a week. I think I should prob be done.

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

@iV_trader I did not. I tried to catch falling knives all day. When I finally bought puts, I shit you not, the market turned 3 mins later. So awful. Awful trading by me. I've become so accustomed to every dip being bought. A trend day should be the easiest, I made it very difficult.

Cult leader Jim Jones used to fake assassination attempts so that his cult would worship him harder. Just thought I’d share that history with everyone

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

@spacemnke That was the most violent snap I've been a part of. Luckily was lucky enough to be in calls. Better to be lucky than good 🫣

@KobeissiLetter Iran just launched Hormuz Premium™ 🚢

✅ Designated route
✅ Professional mechanism
✅ "Service fees"
✅ Safe passage guaranteed

❌ Unless you're in Project Freedom

2 ships freed in 48hrs vs
Iran building a full toll infrastructure 😂

Who's winning again? 💀

#Hormuz #Iran

@KobeissiLetter Starts a fire,

Puts out a fire,

Self proclaims himself as a hero.

Trump is a fraud.

I mean trade was trading with China just fine before the tariff war,... similar to the Iran war that has achieved absolutely nothing, but now seeks China's help to end the war.

Comical.

The “assassination attempt” was 2 weeks ago. I haven’t heard a single thing about it from anyone in the administration or the media. It was completely planned and they didn’t like the reaction it received, so it’s like it never happened.

@twinsight_io New high in the account today thanks to nvda and TSLA. Poorly timed spx calls and puts but that was my own fault.

@mataetrades @twinsight_x I'm not getting notifications on TWI app for android

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

@spacemnke If it wasn't for amazing CAR and also QCOM my account would look very different and probably would've stopped trying to trade. My avg success rate is like 30%. The entries yesterday were near highs, and reverted every time. Luckily they came back for the most part today.

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

@spacemnke What is ORB? It's not in the acronym file and I can't figure it out lol

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

@mataetrades Can you explain a bit more? I see a credit spread involves selling one and buying another, but I'm not sure I'm allowed to do that in one account.

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

@mataetrades what are the levels below for CAR?

[THE SHORT BEAR @TheShortBear]

Good way to look at this is more out of the binary stance or intrayear gains from low to high.

People underestimate just how strong markets are in up years and how big intrayear rallies can be.

QQQ since ’99:
• Avg UP year close-to-close: ~+29%
• Avg UP year low-to-high: ~+40%+
• Avg DOWN year close-to-close: ~-30%
• Avg DOWN year peak-to-trough: ~-45%

Up years are basically 40% rallies that give back ~10% by NYE. The annual print hides the path.

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

@mataetrades Problem is my success rate is about 1 in 4. So many have gone to 0. I think I may try selling otm calls and puts simultaneously.

[Gerrit @gerritstroh]

TY @mataetrades
$CAR 👊
