Just an FYI for those of you wondering, if you cancel he still gives you access until your cancel date. I received all my twitter notifications until the proper date.

I'm done with him. I calculated all my trades that I had done on my own and all his, and I was up big time on mine and got crushed on his.

The problem with him is that when he gets one big, I normally don't partake...why? Because his big hitters are so obvious by the time I move to take the trade, it's already jumped 20-40%. Yes these often run to 1-4x, but I'm not diving into a premium that has already skyrocketed

For all of you canceling manic but still wanting a good follow/service, I highly recommend duck. Yes he likes to play TSLA but he also hits a lot of good calls. And usually there is a big enough window for you to get in before a big move hits.

He also writes up a weekly training document that sheds some light on his methods. I have really enjoyed what he is doing on Slack.

Edit to add, he also posts a watch list every night for the following day. Gives you an idea of what to watch premarket. I am really enjoying what he's doing.

I think I might stick with duck and drop manic.

Same here.

Can we change the thread title to something different?

Nope, but I'm sitting here wishing I had. It went from ~$5 to now over $35.

I also did not. Crazy though!

I am confident that there will be more. He thinks google can hit 1480. That would be awesome.

Manic hit a nice runner w/ AMZN, up 400%.... but Duck's BKNG was now over $48 this morning (from $5).

I wasn't in either of these.

Yesterday was my last day with manic as well. It's just too much to keep up with the alerts while working. And of course he's killing it today with.

he is. duck is doing well also. I can't keep up with both. My success rate is great at picking the bad plays

Nice, yeah today is the kind of day that makes up for a whole bad week. BYND, TSLA, FB, and AMZN puts all 100%+ with AMZN being the big winner if you had diamond hands at 31 from 3.45

Wellllll....ya see, I have gotten to where I was taking profits a little earlier than him, so I sold out of AMZN yesterday with a small profit, couldn't get into TSLA fast enough today, and was stopped out of FB. But BYND was YUGE!!

Yeah same here. I posted this before but when he issues a buy, I buy 4 contracts, and immediately put in sell orders for 1 at 20%, 40%, and 75%. Then, I just let the last one ride until I see I number I like (or hate). Worked out on BYND nicely.

I do that if I know I'm going to get pulled away from my desk. Other wise I usually sell my first portion around 20-40% and always sell at least half at 100%. AMZN and TSLA are just so hard to buy that far out of the money unless they zoom in the right direction, so I bought the AMZN yesterday at a higher strike, which meant I only bought 2 since it was a lotto. Made about 35% overall between the two.

Duck had a massive day today. The guy is really good if you can stay patient and follow his way.

And if you can afford the plays he makes. MANIC had a lot of $1-$2 option plays. Duck is playing $3-$5 plays and sometimes bigger. Not too often smaller.

I'm off of Manic as well. I really liked the way they used discord and the specificity, but it was just not a good fit. Anything I was able to get in on with Manic was a dud. Just a toxic relationship

I also think it inhibits your growth as a trader, as you don't actually study the charts or hone your craft as much. I hit a 7 bagger and a 4 bagger today on Callaway and Cracker Barrel, and I was proud of them because they were two non sexy names that I could tell were undervalued. I think it's a lot more sustainable not following the guru's, it's also a lot more fun, and manageable during work.
