RE: My journey to becoming a day trader!
Thank you! I’m up to my eyeballs trying to squeeze this into my schedule, but determined to make it happen. Ive learned this week the importance of a strong trading platform with hotkeys as I’ve read much about.
hotkeys ? pretty fast action then :-) I tend to trade on 1 hr and 4 hr, and trying to move up to dailys at the moment
Yes, I’m looking to hold positions for just a few minutes at a time, max. I’ve been using Think or Swim mobile platform on an iPad and there’s just too many steps to execute a trade. The desktop version doesn’t seem to be hamstrung.
my platform is pretty good, instant execution directly off the chart if I want, one click. I'm a bit more conservative though and like to plan ahead for a bit. Besides, trading hourlies means I get to shitpost on the inernet for 50 minutes every hour lol.
I tried scalping in my early days just to build up some quick cash and it was ok, very stressful though.
