Below are 3 one minute day trades - an option is to take the 1st Pullback and Go Setup on a one-minute chart after the open when passing on the pre-market gap and go trade.
First 2 day trades are prime setups and the 3rd day trade is not the greatest setup as sold off at the open. This trade is result of 2 quick winners and me pushing my luck going for a triple winner. Dumb - best to pass and day trade only the best setups. While its still my biggest trading weakness, not passing on average setups, this weakness has come a long way.
Each stock is in play with a strong up gap. Entry high of the ..read more

Day trading time frames where to start and how to progress.
Starting Out: The Basics
1. Focus on Large Cap Stocks that are volatile: Begin with 5-8 large-cap stocks. These are typically more stable and provide a good learning ground. (example nvda, tsla, qqq, meta, aapl..)
2. Use a Simulator: Before diving into real trading, learn to trade on a simulator. It's risk-free and provides invaluable experience. If you're serious about learning to trade spend the first year learning to trade without the pressure of profit-making. If you have the temptation to start with real money, resist ..read more

Chocolate is a hobby of mine. It has a strong presence in my family history. My mother used to make homemade chocolate eggs for Easter, and both my grandmothers had bowls filled with chocolates when we visited. These chocolates came from the best local shops and from around the world. When I travel, I make it a point to seek out historical sites and local family-owned chocolate shops. I've had the pleasure of tasting chocolate in 13 different countries, with my most recent experience being in Scotland, where I took my first chocolate class.
I hadn't realized how easy and fun it is to make your ..read more
