scalp

1000proof : I wanna try to get into scalping but I just don’t trust myself to do the right thing. Sometimes those numbers jump and then they fall even faster. Your bravery, skills and talent is what allowed you to see profit. Keep going and I wish you much success

Billy Badass OP 1000proof : it takes time and practice. if you are new to scalping options but understand basic charting find the trend of the stock you are trading. i usuall find my trend on the 1 day and 4 hour then i use the 5 and 15 min so scalp between the emas or at known support and resistence,  try it with 1 contract to start pick one with some time on it even if you plan to trade it in 1 min to 1 hour still pick a contract with a few weeks or even months unless its a yolo bet and you dont mind risking it.  you will win and loose. i long my weekly P&L and when a trade goes wrong i study my mistake.  i have a bad habit of selling winners to early in profit and letting loosers fall to far before i cut them.   every trade i improve and it get easier. good luck!

1000proof : Thanks for your advice. I agree 1 is the magic number since I’m getting my feeet wet for the first time in options. I’m gonna try it Monday morning just to see where I am at with my confidence. Yeah, the person who told me to get started with trading (Buy and Hold is what I do) always said write down every time you do something in the market that way you can see where you went wrong or right. Otherwise you’re just gambling and you might as well just go to Vegas. Best of luck on your trading journey and thanks for the helpful advice. Getting prepared for Monday 🫡
