Does this really apply to chaos theory? I am not a math head, in fact I am going to start re-learning math from the ground up, starting at simple arithmetic going through to theoretical physics. So, I can't say I understand it at this point. However ...

I haven't been on here a while due to learning stock trading. Momentum stocks. I watch the Level 2 data to make spit second decisions. Same as a bank. So what? Not only can you hide your orders, but with an algorithm, it doesn't have to place an ...

I hear this all the time but have yet not seen the math. My counter argument is if you base an algo on chaos theory principles, then it should work despite some saturation. That is if chaos really has a pulling force behind it that organizes it. I ...

More tuition has been paid. It seems so close that I just need to correct basic errors to get profitable. This is a new style of trading but I think it works. Continuing the forward testing. This fib tool has an extra level that price reacted to.

Entries at the fib levels. Stopped. Losses are bad but I have a tiny account. Metals went against me, SPX barely stopped. Now there is not even enough margin for 1 position to jump back in and recover. Low account balance trading has this going ...

Order still in from yesterday, tight stop and large target, I will trail the stop throughout the day. If it correlates metals then the longs should do well. Done trading for now. I'll check at lunch.

More risk.

Minimizing risk stop at breakeven. See if its too soon.

Betting that it fades. Categorizing setups, a grade, b grade, etc. The richest traders take fewer but better trades. You can't bench warm forever though. This is at resistance.

Just to see if this is a top, common pattern before it shoots to the 423.6.

Hoping to move the second stop to breakeven asap then wait for the 423.6 exhaustion.

Is this in the confines of good r:r?

Long on the 38.2 bounce, max margin. Also sma 50 rejection. I've been maxing out margin then stopping out if I had more margin I could withstand drawdown like I used to a few months back. Still testing stop sizes and position sizes. I have tripled ...
