Investment analyst based in the Baltics. This is my personal trading journal where I share my insights based on data analysis, and technicals! - DYOR/NFA
I'll give you a bible for trading:
- have stop loss
- buy retest of breakout
- have stop loss
- sell when you screenshot
- have stop loss
- good above EMAs, bad below
- trade top 2/3 stocks of leading sectors
- scan weekly, chart daily, trade hourly
- 9/20/50/100 EMAs
holy furu
@benshapiro
you're so biased to one side and instantly dismissing the other side that it's a bit hilarious you're a journalist. every single clip or rhetoric you make portrays that Israel is the most saint and did-no-wrongs, ever, country on planet Earth
quick 101 for noobs on sectors
- bitcoin miners only shares, never options
- for put selling semiconductors/FAANG names only
- software buy 20/30% dips, and sell after similar size rips
- fintech will always be trash, but excellent for scalps
- best market beta risk evaluation
how to take profits in trading - 101 for noobs:
- sell after 3/5 upward momentum days anywhere in between 25/50%
- trail the rest with 10 and/or 20 EMAs
- use cheat code indicators like % of stocks above 5/20/50 MAs (depending on your timeframe, and length/how long you typically
@ruth_capital
Could you please spread some wisdom on profit taking and targets ? Selling 1/3 at 5% gain, 1/3 at 10% and trailing, is it right way to do it ?
Trading daily and weekly timeframes.
small tip: oldest trick in the history books on how to manage winners is to lock profit after a monstrous 20-50% gap up (or several-day melt upwards), and trail the remaining shares with EMA10
learn this
my humble guess after reading all the data and doing work in the office all these days is that this entire move to the downside was long awaited as it was stacked by bearish position building and call selling in the last weeks (don't overthink - ER season, seasonality, stuffs
buying the dip usually means averaging up on your cost basis while the asset is testing a moving average as a support, and rests on low volume
if the account you follow keeps buying the dip below all moving averages, and trendlines (in a downtrend) - unfollow
understand this
stock is flat/down:
- twitter silent
stock is flat/down:
- twitter still silent
stock goes up:
- yes I am long since, and have calls, leaps, shares, it was obvious
@pakpakchicken
you were cool and genuine few years ago, now u'r just tweeting child stuff as if you're 17 and socially inept in need of recognition
i made my piece in the market i don't need to blabber online to make myself feel better
cheers, i hope you mature twice in life
a lot of inexperienced folks here get irritated when someone tells you to buy a name that just hit all time highs
to mature in trading, one must realize that buying new 52w highs is safer than buying range lows
know this
this platform is full is golden nuggets, all you need to do is dig deep
for every 50 retards there's 1 smart person
a few years ago information we now share daily was definitely more difficult to get, now you get CFA just by reading twitter
appreciative furu
listen this market is easy mode
i'll put it simply if you're red YTD the market is just not for you
all you need braincells for is to long two best sectors everytime they dip
you still got time to be the greatest
just wanted to say thanks to everyone
I truly appreciate having such an audience, and it seems to me you value both insights, and advice I share
cheers to you all - the support this year has been mindblowing
know this
it feels like this previous pullback has wiped out a lot of wankers on the platform, and engagement died off
now everyone is salty they missed the dip
engagement will return when we are nearing a local top again, that's when chasers buy, and you sell / hedge (probably)
@operationdanish
these should be printed on everyday news outlets until someone picks notice
I am not an old guy, and can say that this reflects pretty much across all of my friends inbetween 25-35
and I can see the trend is picking up steam in all the wrong ways
covid esp. demolished all
I'll share something they don't do on little CFA courses
often times indices go up on low volume, and you should see it as a good thing - majority of my runs in longs were on low volume on the way up with a lowering/inactive volatility
know this
I rarely trade on Mondays, as this to me is range formation <stalk the environment> day
in the last few quarters I usually enter position on mid-week retracements, and sell Friday/Monday to chasers
less is more - understand this
am I the only one who finds it to be hilarious how tons of well known people on this platform are so excited about nibbling these generational dips, yet fail to mention to the public they are already pretty much max long, and have no cash left to actually buy?
dishonesty furu
@CuriousPejjy
let me tell you a secret...
a software company cuts heads - purely opex, fees, salaries, rents, utilities, if soft. is done you don't need engineers per say
when an EV automaker cuts heads - means less people needed for a TOUCHABLE product, aka demand is pisswhack
clearer?
red days are part of the game - the sooner you shrug it off, and identify where the mistake was, the better
regroup - analyze what's the new resistance/support, check if it's series of higher highs/lows, or lower highs/lows
AND GAMBLE AGAIN TOMORROW
your life in trading/swinging would be so much easier if you only played with names that are either near ATH, or at ATH, instead of everything else -- especially the recycled garbage 2020-esque names
understand this
as earnings season is here, just a casual reminder the best seats are made for spectators
preserve capital, and enjoy the show -- enter only when the dust settles and/or derisk to minimize blood pressure
popcorn furu
your bible:
- no options, 95% just spot shares
- anticipate a breakout; don't fomo after; wait for backtest
- pick strongest names in leading sector
- volume only indicator you need
- sell if you smiled when looking at P&L
- inverse twitter
- less open positions
- cut losers qck
remove all the bitches who post now how obvious it was to buy that Black Monday dip, but were radio silent that week
they'll post how obvious it was to short, and exit once we do eventually pullback too
clean following list furu
I don't particularly care about engagement, and not sure what has happened, but feels like this account grew enormously in the last few weeks
happy to see you guys like, interact, share ideas, piss me off - whatever
I appreciate the nice gestures, and private thanks
know this
watch when they hammer bad news on constructive support/base, and the stock holds - this is your buy point
watch when they hammer good news on resistance, and the stock fails to act - this is your sell point
most of my plays are with shares/commons with minimal usage of options, and so should be yours
for many, options is a fools game - better for your portfolio to have less excitement, but less volatility
monday wisdom furu
current environment:
- bad idea to trade
- not the worst idea to buy for long term some of the names that beat + raise
- best idea to do nothing and just watch
decision time furu
small tip: recommend you to select a specific price target, and exit mostly or fully when it is met - this way you won't beat yourself if it goes up afterwards (you already won), and won't be depressed if it starts falling down
I reach a goal - and I pounce, onto next
know this
- i don't see good setups
- names gap up 5% the next day
- okay i see good setups
- buys the top
- names retrace immediately
- fuck
the cycle which every trader knows
the choose rich package
#5
(also known as - best names to spark up longs should markets cooperate)
$MRVL $SMCI $ON $AMD $ZS $S $CORZ $RDDT $CART $HOOD $RKT $AFRM
no charts, just listing names to save your time - these have nice bases/coiling with supportive derivatives action
the choose rich package
#4
(also known as - best names to spark up longs should markets cooperate)
$ARM $TSLA $CRM $AMZN $PANW $URA $DELL $GTLB $WDAY $GOOGL $SPOT
no charts, just listing names to save your time - these have nice bases/coiling with supportive derivatives action
listen up paninis I'm not dishing on anyone but you can clearly see how a couple of downside days rugged portfolios, and moods
this is why it's essential to lock in gains, and trim your positions instead of gloating on the way up, so you have ammo to buy the dip later
ammo furu
if there's one more tip I can share with you paninis is instead of thinking <how much can I earn with this trade> do the latter:
- how to minimize my loss if stuff goes south
in time you'll learn the biggest growth comes not from wins, but from limiting losses
know this
friendly reminder - these guys won't be here to hold your hand when the markets retrace
everyone is smart in an uptrend, but when the unwinding begins - they can only say <hold> or go radio silent
have your own plan, have your own stop losses
the choose rich package

$MRVL $DPST $DAPP $LNTH $VKTX $U $RKLB $Z $BTC $LLY $QCOM $CORZ
no charts, just listing names to save your time - these have nice bases/coiling with supportive derivatives action
there's no shame in admitting you managed to select the shittiest picks in the entire market and pushing it to your followers entire year during the biggest bull run ever instead of hiding replies to keep your reputation and engagement farm
@gurgavin
regardless of what happens next, if you failed to purchase stocks last week, this is definitely not the ideal place to be initiating new longs
calculate your risk to reward, and/or wait for a higher low, back-testing of breakouts
risk management department furu
if weekly looks good you open up daily
daily has a pattern you like -- scan for entry
your entry is best either on a breakout (ie. wedge pop)/retest 65min, or bottom of the node
for cryptocurrencies I run 2-3D frame... better liquidity visibility
frame furu

I won't be issuing a choose rich package this week, because I do believe initiating new longs at this stage is a bit of a stretch - my target was 550 by EOM on $SPY, and we are here premarket
buyback blackout period starts, shooting star candles should appear - due for a *chop*
I know it sucks for the lot of you right now but don't let one bad trade ruin your day
and don't let one bad week ruin an entire month
markets are beautiful because <there's always a next one> setup out there
lift yourself up and be a better furu
I'm at this stage where I think some of you folks like tweets even without reading the content first
shoutout to these supportive fellas, I see you
appreciate this
do you ever get hit with this phenomenon where you follow an account make amazing stock market call after call, and then when you finally decide to copy him - THIS EXACT PLAY gets bagged to zero
while all the rest of the plays went moon
epic luck furu
the guy who taught me how to trade always said to keep longing name after split is announced and sell a few days prior to the date of execution
I ran no backtests on this, but worked well most of the time, see NVDA / AVGO / MSTR examples - coolers follow eventually
know this
if there's a single company I can advocate for blindly going long and DCA for the next 6 years - that would be $NOW
Bill McDermott is one of the best CEOs out there, and his goal is to take
@ServiceNow
to 500B MC, that's when I sell
you can notice this is the only name I did a
what I did w/ software names last week, a recap:
- bought commons for $S
- sold puts for $MDB
- sold puts + bought LEAPS for $PANW
- sold puts + bought commons for $PLTR
- sold puts for $NET
- sold puts + bought commons + bought calls for $NOW
- sold puts for $CRM
- bought
your safest pathway is to enter the markets once names establish a higher-low
OR wait for lower-high on $VIX - no need to suicide before then
advisor to Biden furu
financial twitter has turned into victim-playing galore
every second post I read is <when I was bullish, everyone mocked me, now I'm right> type of nonsense
you guys get no appreciation in real life or what? I'm surely not the only one noticing this fragility
