      Hey markus, this'll be my 3rd reply in 3 videos of yours ive actually sat amd watched (as opposed to backgrounding, you know what I mean). So, i've been.watching a fair bit of tom sosnoff and those guys over at tastytrade, and they focus on totally different strategies so maybe its not comparable, but one thing they say is "trade small, trade often"; i think the intersection of your two views on trade frequency is that you dont want to be managing your existing positions too often, but do want to be making a number of small separate trades a day (1-2% of BP each up to maybe 30ish% of available BP is their recommendation, if im remembering the limit right anyway), assuming the opportunities are good ones of course. More positions of modest size means more opportunities to profit and of course greater diversification. So with that context my question is this: does the distinction between management trades and position open/closing trades make sense to you, or are they all in the "too many trades" category for your strategy/feelings about the market? Personally i think it "lines up" with my favorite mathematical fact, the LLN (in a suuuuuper informal sense, of course).

    I am looking at RIDE today and it is bad BUT they just announced they are shipping their first orders a year after this stream aired. I really want an update on this in 6 months. If their products is in fact perfected and ready for sale then it is conceivable that a small investment right now could make bank.

    I hear people all the time talking about the money they lost today because the stock tanked. I just laugh to myself. There are only 2 ways to lose money on a stock, company folds and stock become worthless, or selling when it tanks. Those people are crying about losing money while I am buying the exact same stock so I can make money. Yes entrance matters but exit is when you make or lose money. Stocks are not money, and you did not lose any stocks. Stock are what you buy or sell for money. They have no real value UNTIL you trade them.

      Oh? I’m day trading MNQ & NQ and sometimes the MES & ES Futures from a trading platform called Tradovate, LLC since August 7, 2020. At first I’d to demo trade and get to know these products for about 6 months. Then started my live account. I’m still learning. I don’t mind the commissions being high. Nowadays the commission fees for NQ/ES is $1.23, NFA is $0.02, and Clearing fee is $0.09 per contract. And for MNQ/MES is $0.25, NFA is $0.02, and the Clearing fee is $0.09 per contract.

    I like your trading style, only I think I would prefer not to put quite so much in a single stock. I'm doing 5 different stocks right now, but only a couple options each. Of course my portfolio isn't the size of yours! But even as I grow it, I'll probably buy no more than 10 options per stock. I'm still new so who knows, but that's my current strategy. Is that a dumb to way think? I'm a fairly cautious trader.

      That's where I'm at. I trade the wheel successfully (mostly with no scanner). I have recently been using the TOS scanner with my own parameters but the market has been rough so it's hard to say how that's been doing. I'm skeptical that this tool would make a significant difference for me but would be open to being proved wrong.

    Hello Markus. I have to preface this by saying that your channel is great. I've been on here for a couple weeks and learned a lot. But when you talk about the wheel strategy, I feel a little left out. LOL. It's because I've started investing and trading last month. And all you've been talking about was the wheel strategy and I'm lost. LOL. So I'm still a new guy and was wondering if you can possibly make a video telling us beginners other strategies other than the wheel.

      @billstevens5277 3 роки тому

      The problem with that is if it jams, you get screwed on the short stock. I do it the other way around, short the stock, wait for downticks and then short puts to cover. The trick is finding good short candidates and I may start looking at pxo picks for that. I'm a longtime short seller so it's more natural for me to do those plays.

    No matter what strategy , technique or method you follow there’s one element called ‘ luck’ which you can’t buy learn or steal IMO
    Obviously that’s not something you can control but need to be aware of though
