AriGold2.0 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 The one that I want to really sink some money into is Square SQ. I believe in anything Jack Dorsey does, the guy just wins at life. I personally use Square for my business and it's a mostly flawless program. Also they were approved to start opening banks, the 1st one will be next year in Utah.

TGokou Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 So S&P dropped off it's 75 day moving average with huge volume the other day. I'm expecting a retest sometime next week. If it doesn't clear I'm expecting a steady drop. If it clears expect it to test the 200 day moving average at around 3000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mainly trade currencies these days. With some index futures and commodity futures thrown in for good measure. So I don't know if I'd be of much use. My days of heavily day trading stocks were from 1998-2015. I don't trade many stocks these days unless I get an itch I can't scratch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the offer, it is a good idea, but i don't feel comfortable being part of an exclusive group, especially since this isn't my specialty or profession. I think, for me, the open forum (CDC) is well suited. Sharing is caring and all that jazz, y'know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m on slack 24/7 for both my work channels, might end up becoming a bit more distracting for me. I find it’s easier to just sift through this thread when I’ve got some down time between things. Appreciate the offer though, slacks awesome for these kinds of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will take decades. We assume that governments will continue to be able to fund this debt. The numbers don't work now so how it will look in June is scary. The thing about investing is that you have to keep an open mind, look at new ideas and you have no choice but to live with the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know enough about them to make a purchase. But I was following HOU.TO for the past few weeks and theirs a lot of shady stuff going on. The amount of changes to the etf and reverse splits. It just seems like a massive gamble at this point for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on your definition of "awhile". Technically you can put an oil contract expiry out as far as 9 years. But no one does that and those contracts trade zero volume. I doubt you could even find a broker who would offer those products for trade. Most brokers will only offer contracts for trade with expiry's out a few months. The farther out you put the expiry the less volume the contract will trade. I suppose if you want to be perpetually long oil you could always take delivery.

Would you care to explain why you stopped (no worries if you dont)? what does it take to be a day trader? Any online resources or books you recommend?
