I miss hard copy magazines. First of all simply for the experience of holding the magazine while reading it, and turning the pages. But also they were a filter between good and poor content. The internet is so cheap and easy to use to deliver ...

Let's see where it takes us! One thing I'd note that I didn't mention in the video tonight is that the reason I added ATR to the chart is that ATR may be a better tool to use for setting take profit levels. Right now, I am going to +10 points, but ...

I use Ninjatrader Brokerage. You can also trade with various prop firms. I'd suggest TopStep as the best combination of low cost and clear rules and reliable payouts. Avoid Apex like your life depends upon avoiding it. TradeDay is also good, but ...
