well the Costco was fun. Another $500 down.
Yea that one hurt. I was a little surprised he didn't hold on for another couple days, but I guess the whole play was behind the April numbers maybe

I've started throttling my manic plays, I got out of Apple at about 8% up. Anytime I see sizable green I get out now. To be honest it seems like he's chasing and throwing stuff at the screen

I don't know why or how you guys can bet your own money by following someone who has no face or apparent credential.

I don't win every trade but when I lose it is because I made a mistake not because I was blindly following a subscription.

Take this with a grain of salt because I'm not a charting expert and I miss half the plays due to work. It feels like he tries to give a little advance notice of a breakout which leads to multiple misses on his picks (failed breakouts). Thus, if it doesn't move pretty quick it's likely to fail (unless overnight news helps). On the other hand, the trades which move I'm always too gun shy to jump into as I "missed" the entry.

His AAPL was an obvious hedge play against the ES_F looking like it would fail, but he didn't label as such.

I like Maniac's style more (entries, exits, premarket posts, etc) when compared to Duck. Duck has better results but I had no clue what to do on some of his plays. I also think Duck waits for confirmed breakouts which means most people miss his entry points.

Manic has the best easiest style to follow for certain. And you're absolutely right, he studies the ES_F and anticipates breakdowns and for companies who have volume gaps who could domino if the sell of or ramp up happens. Leads to some winners and a lot of losers. He does seem to be chasing more recently though, I think his customer base gets upset if he isn't throwing moves at them regularly and I worry he's throwing more Hail Marys

.i am ok saying no good trades. I think this is like surfing with these guys. Small choppy waves are hard to ride or not much action. Big waves is where they can make money.

So many times that huge volume spike on a rising stock turns out to trigger a selloff. NET dropped $0.60 since

TLRY - Tilray Inc. It's a canadian marijuana company.


I'm about even on Manic calls for the week. At this point I consider him a source of ideas but not much else...

Yeah I think I'm going to can manic and stay with Dan Shapiro for his pivots and cheddarflow for options. ShApiro is awesome but you need to be able to buy $5-10k at a time to make it worth your while as you're just buying shares, so the couple dollar candles he rides don't amount to much unless you have some weight, obviously much less stressful than options as you're not fighting the clock.

I made $400 on tsla in 38 seconds this morning but had to buy $80k of shares to do so.

TLRY is in my list of stocks to never touch again under any circumstances. SDC, ROKU, ans SPCE are also in the list.

You can still use his pivots to trade options. I wouldn't be able to trade Tesla if it weren't for options.

Yeah, but you can run smack into a whack premium while trading his pivots.
