because this industry is full of scumbag gurus who dont know SHIT about trading but fleece beginners left & right by seducing them with pussy PNLs that only look impressive to rookies & with carefully selected charts full of arrows on pussy size that only impress the uninitiated.
To show u how easy it is to seduce the masses, I can literally post my PNLs for just 1 week straight, double my following, open a chatroom as early as next week, charge as low as $200 a month & if even 1% of my current followers join (~300 ppl) that's $60K/month, $720K/year.
And all id have to do is feed them regurgitated basic bullshit, hide some of my losses, show my best wins, post some ads, pose next to a lambo rented or bought with sub money, promise them they'll be rich in notime etc and boom. easy money. u think i dont know how the game works?
So yeah, this industry is full of scum. the few good guys still out there that actually CARE about their subs (like @InvestorsLive or @SmashTheBid etc.) are few & far between, & 90% of new traders will probably never find out about em b/c they're so seduced by the flashy bullshit
So least I can do is share tips for those willing to work. My tweets are for those willing to stay up for hours researching, tracking, reading etc. they deserve all the help in the world. The other lazy fucks can keep filling my shorts & buying my call spreads.

Dont quit. Trading is 1 of the few exceptions to the sunk cost fallacy. if u already poured a ton of $ & time into this journey, then u may be closer to the finish line than u think. just identify what u're doing wrong (99% of the time it's probably dumb impulsive shit) & fix it.
Impulse control comes from understanding basic biology & brain neurochemistry. In layman terms, the primal regions of ur brain (amygdala etc) & ur most developed region (frontal cortex) are always at war with each other. They want 2 conflicting things

ur frontal cortex has evolved to do long term planning, self-control, delaying instant gratification in exchange for future gain, holding back primal instincts etc. That's why violent criminals, kids, & ppl with frontal cortex damage have such a hard time with impulse control

I'll save u years of data tracking and experience. the best long setups are simply bear traps. Largecaps or lowfloats, doesnt matter. Look up my "you gon learn today" setup if u need a visual. I stop out (if short) & go balls deep long each time I see it.

#BearTipOfTheDay
if u're a scalper, look for it on the 1-3min chart.

if you're a daytrader that likes to capture big moves, look for it on the 5min or even 15min chart.

if you're a swingtrader, look for it on the hourly, 4h or daily/weekly chart.

The bigger the timeframe the bigger the move.
For example here's when $AMC did the #youGonLearnToday setup back when it was in the $20 area, right before the gamma squeeze. I took the L on my call shorts and flipped long. if it does it again, even at this current inflated price, i'll flip long again.

I dont trade stocks I trade setups. I dont look at the scanners & think "which stocks are moving.? oh this one is interesting. let's see how i can trade it". No, i look for predictable, objective setups ive studied over the yrs, THEN i look for stocks that fall within that setup.
Quaterbacks 🏈 dont jump into a game & say "let's see what happens".

No, they study the opponent BEFORE the game.

they practice predetermined routes & formations BEFORE the game.

then when the game starts, they look at the defense (setup) & execute routes based on that.
"oh the defense is doing a cover 2 (setup), ok we hav route combinations for this. Oh theyre using a nickle defense formation, got it, we hav route combinations for that etc".

THAT'S how i approach trading. "oh this is setup XYZ, got it, i kno the execution rules for that setup"

the easiest way to find big supply/demand imbalances is to simply look for scenarios where a big investor or group of investors are stuck with LARGE (ideally losing) positions that they cannot easily close out.
u have to understand that not everyone trades with 100 or 1K shares like most newbies. So not everyone can get in and out of trades easily. so when a LARGE trader (or group of traders) is stuck, their #1 goal is no longer making money, it's finding liquidity to get out.
So this creates a scenario where the moment they get liquidity (ideally near their breakeven price), they'll take it without question. The more of them are stuck, the more they'll clog up the bid or ask (depending on if it's a bear or bull), creating an imbalance.

from my experience AND the overwhelming data, the BEST intraday long setups almost ALWAYS happen after 10am. that's why if im short a stock and it's still consolidating above VWAP after 10am, + beating its volume forecast for that time, i close the trade immediately or downsize.
that's b/c a stock with significantly more supply than demand should be getting SLAUGHTERED and near its LOD by 10am. with all the bulls from the open trapped and providing additional supply on every pop as bagholders. if they're not trapped, then guess who is.

#BearTipOfTheDay
Remember, most shortsellers trade MASSIVE size, and when u're on that kind of size u cant just "stop out" without massive slippage. ESPECIALLY after 10am where liquidity on the offer dries up faster than 90yr old pussy. This creates a domino effect once the stock starts to uptick

I have too many tweets on this. AVOID large losses at all costs. Large losses dont just set u back financially, they set u back MENTALLY. one single large loss not only erases days of hardwork, but it also fucks up ur psyche so much that it ALSO hurts your FUTURE trades.
It puts u in the "i gotta make it back" mentality, so u'll refuse to take profits on working trades even if u get an exit signal, b/c u'll compare the unrealized win to that BIG loss & think "that's not enough, i need to make more". Then u'll overstay & turn that win into a loss.
This will then lead to MORE frustration.. hurting your psyche even more. U'll then start forcing stupid trades, doubling size to try to make the loss back quicker etc, and since u're so mentally unstable, the next losses u take will be even bigger (since u're on double size)
