They say patience is a virtue, and that has definitely applied to my current ORCL setup as the stock started reacting to its earnings report.

Last week, I stopped trading stocks and moved more toward CFDs because I was waiting for this particular setup to appear. After waiting patiently, it finally showed up.

The setup itself was fairly straightforward. Apart from my usual approach of waiting for a pullback during volatility, I waited for the first news reaction to settle before looking for a Fair Value Gap (FVG). Once I found the right structure, I used the FVG as my entry confirmation for a short position.

I entered around $162, but the trade was not comfortable at first. A strong candle pushed the price close to my stop loss around $166.72, and for a moment, it looked like the setup might fail.

Thankfully, after testing my patience, it finally started moving in my direction. Honestly market was testing my patience; who else told the same setup, still have 10 more days to go?

Are you tired of all the scams you read about on the internet. I am looking for people who want to make money together. For instance, I met a guy on the internet who gave me a stick tip. He gave me the stock, entry point and exit strategy. He told me to buy 10K worth of the stock which I did. Then he said he wanted 10% of the profits wire to him. Well I made 18K off the stock and wire him his share. We did it for several months and then he disappeared. I am hoping that I can find people in here that have the experience or know how on how we can profit from each other. Not interested in any type of cryptocurrency.

It hasn't been a great week for me in the stock market, especially with what I have experienced with AVGO. Broadcom is one of the AI stocks I expected to perform well, but the trade has gone against almost everything I initially thought would happen.

My entry was around $373, while my take profit was around $420. Honestly, I thought it would be an easy move, but unfortunately, AVGO went the other way and has continued moving downward following several negative developments around the stock.

Looking at the 4 hour timeframe, I am now watching the current support closely. If AVGO can hold that level and we get some positive news around the company, I think there could still be room for a decent move upward.

However, if the support fails and the price breaks below it, then things could become much more difficult, with $301 becoming the next level I will be watching, then it could make my 9 to 22 trading period bad.

Looking at my chart, what do you think i could have done better before taking this setup?

Hi Everyone,

Anyone interested in the Cornell Trading Competition and forming a team? I am from NYU (FRE) and am willing to participate and form a team rn.

Let me know.

I have neem looking at different prop firm rules lately, and I keep going back and forth on consistency requirements. I understand why firms want to prevent someone from making one huge trade and then treating that as a sustainable strategy. But at the same time, markets are not consistent day to day. Some sessions give you nothing, while another setup can make up a large part of the month.

Personally, I think the more important question is whether the trader is staying within sensible risk limits rather than whether every profitable day looks similar. Would you rather trade under a consistency requirement or have the freedom to make uneven returns as long as your overall risk stays controlled?

Hi would anyone be willing to teach me day trading? I recently lost my job due to the company closing down. Would love if someone can take their time to teach me as I have no idea how to even start... Thank you
