Yes, a nice one, Suri. Btw, I also came across this nice page, which was one of the places I began my research.

 

Another 3 popular trading blogs I found (judging by loads of comments) are:

Anyone remember that blog of the guy who built his account up to about $50k in around 2008, thought of himself as an expert then lost it all on one trade as the market tanked - It was a video... prime time comedy and a great example of what not to do.

 

Anyone know what I'm on about?

Without getting too heavy into shameless promotion, and having read many, many of the trading books/blogs out there over the years (the good and the bad), I will simply say I have outlined the way I actually trade the ES market in a new book called "Professional Day Trading and How to win.." (listed on Amazon) which among other things includes real trading examples/account statement verification, etc in an effort to show how "theory translates to actual trading results," so to speak, within realistic trading goals and expectations.

 

My goal was to write a book about trading from a "real traders point of view" that I have simply never seen presented in other books/blogs before, and so far I have received some very satisfying positive feedback to know that the material has been of use to others as well.

 

I would say if anyone is looking for a unique look into "one persons view of real trading," this is the type of book I have put together, and of course feel can be of use to traders...

I write a blog about building and programming Expert Advisors for MetaTrader. The blog jumps back and forth between the technical aspects like the pros and cons of the platform. I also try to cover the dos and don'ts of building an automated trading system. I've only been writing it for about two months, but I'd love to hear your feedback either here or on the blog comments.

 

Thanks,

 

Shaun

Here's a quote from "Scalp And Swing":

 

My Last Post For A While : Disconnected

Another max+slippage daily loser (smaller than yesterday). Feel disconnected with the crude oil. I have headache, confused, dozens stopped out,

 

Another one:

Farewell to all my friends

I never good on trading, never will.

 

 

@JimMM

 

It's really not helpful to post references to such junk blogs.

 

Please post only information that can be of help.

 

Everyone knows how to google for a blog.

 

 

If you send people off to visit such blogs you are stealing their time

and they will probably ignore your postings in the future.

The video is PAINFUL to watch! Does anyone know how he lost the cash? Was he averaging down or something?

 

He's trading the Russell 2000 futures (a favourite of day traders for its high volatility and low margin requirements) and I think its Jan 2008.

 

He's gone long on Friday, probably averaging down a losing position and decides to carry it over the weekend. Monday is a US holiday but Europe is trading and Europe tanks. Its one of those days when the Dow was down something like -500 intraday. After the event it becomes clear that SocGen triggered the collapse by unwinding the positions put on by its rouge trader into an already weak market.

 

Anyway - my votes go for Don Miller and MBAGearHead. Most of the others are good for comedy value if you want to know why 95% of traders lose.

    • Date: 25th April 2024. Investors Monitor a Potential Japanese Intervention, and upcoming Tech Earnings. Meta stocks top earnings expectations, but revenue guidance for the next 6 months triggers significant selloff. Meta stocks decline 15.00% and the Magnificent Seven also trade lower. Japanese Authorities are on watch and most market experts predict the Japanese Federal Government will intervene once again. The Japanese Yen is the day’s worst performing currency while the Australian Dollar continues to top the charts. The US Dollar trades 0.10% lower, but this afternoon’s performance is likely to be dependent on the US GDP. USA100 – Meta Stocks Fall 15% On the Next 6-Months Guidance The NASDAQ has declined 1.51% over the past 24 hours, unable to maintain momentum from Monday and Tuesday. Technical analysts advise the decline is partially simply a break in the bullish momentum and the asset continues to follow a bullish correction pattern. However, if the decline continues throughout the day, the retracement scenario becomes a lesser possibility. In terms of indications and technical analysis, most oscillators, and momentum-based signals point to a downward price movement. The USA100 trades below the 75-Bar EMA, below the VWAP and the RSI hovers above 40.00. All these factors point towards a bearish trend. The bearish signals are also likely to strengthen if the price declines below $17,295.11. The stock which is experiencing considerably large volatility is Meta which has fallen more than 15.00%. The past quarter’s earnings beat expectations and according to economists, remain stable and strong. Earnings Per Share beat expectations by 8.10% and revenue was as expected. However, company expenses significantly rose in the past quarter and the guidance for the second half of the year is lower than previous expectations. These two factors have caused investors to consider selling their shares and cashing in their profits. Meta’s decline is one of the main causes for the USA100’s bearish trend. CFRA Senior Analyst, Angelo Zino, advises the selloff may be a slight over reaction based on earnings data. If Meta stocks rise again, investors can start to evaluate a possible upward correction. However, a concern for investors is that more and more companies are indicating caution for the second half of the year. The price movements will largely now depend on Microsoft and Alphabet earnings tonight after market close. Microsoft is the most influential stock for the NASDAQ and Alphabet is the third. The two make up 14.25% of the overall index. If the two companies also witness their stocks decline after the earnings reports, the USA100 may struggle to gain upward momentum. EURJPY – Will Japan Intervene Again? In the currency market, the Japanese Yen remains within the spotlight as investors believe the Japanese Federal Government is likely to again intervene. The Federal Government has previously intervened in the past 12 months which caused a sharp rise in the Yen before again declining. The government opted for this option in an attempt to hinder a further decline. Volatility within the Japanese Yen will also depend on today’s US GDP reading and tomorrow’s Core PCE Price Index. However, investors will more importantly pay close attention to the Bank of Japan’s monetary policy. Investors will be keen to see if the central bank believes it is appropriate to again hike in 2024 as well as comment regarding inflation and the economy. In terms of technical analysis, breakout levels can be considered as areas where the exchange rate may retrace or correct. Breakout levels can be seen at 166.656 and 166.333. However, the only indicators pointing to a decline are the RSI and similar oscillators which advise the price is at risk of being “overbought”. Always trade with strict risk management.
