Hi There, I am wondering if there are any Canadians here in the community that do active day and/or swing trading as a business? I am in the same boat, and am looking for recommendations on an accountant who has experience with day trading business taxes. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hey everyone, my name is Phil and I live in Florida. I've been trading for a few years and I'm mainly breakeven most months. I trade camarilla pivots and a few other strategies and I would like to find a buddy/buddies to talk trading with and for accountability purposes. You don’t have to live in Florida to reply. I’m really focused on making trading work and becoming a professional so let me know! It can be hard to find actual serious traders out in the real world lol and I just want to find good people who love to trade. If you're interested, my email is: [email protected] Send me an email and I should reply relatively fast. Thank you!

Have you considered futures? I've recorded hundreds of videos over the years discussing venues for trading in "small" accounts. My favorites at the moment: 1) Futures: Really good leverage, no PDT, and far less volatile than some of the stock tickers I/we usually trade. Here is a video from a "challenge" I did not too long ago. As you can see, the results can compound very, very quickly: 1b) You can also get involved with futures via a "prop" firm. I have multiple videos on topic, so if you're interested --- reach out and I'll try to opine when/where capable. Here is a video to get you started: 2) Cash Options account: I love trading options in a cash account. Options settle the very next day, so any profit you made today, will be available tomorrow for trading. Using a cash account also limits you to "over-trading" today, because once you've exhausted all of your funds for the day -- you're forced to wait until tomorrow. 3) Prop-firms that focus on equities: CMEG and Frontier are the leading firms at the moment, but this has changed (often) over the years. If you're not intersted in futures, or options, this is -- effectively -- the only way to go. In any case... I have almost a decade of experience trading in "small" accts... Feel free to ask questions if desired. GL...STAY GREEN!

TL;DR: Here are some sheets with concise information about strategies members of BBT use. Shoutout to the mods and contributors for the information for these strategies. After watching Peter's amazing presentation about his 'Mountain Pass' strategy a couple nights ago, I put together an information sheet with the setup details similar to ones I had already created for a few other strategies. After putting together the Mountain Pass sheet, I decided it, among the others could be useful for my fellow BBT community members for any of the following reasons: You could use them for your playbook. If you like the layout, you could use them as a template to make your own information sheets/playbook. They could serve as a tangible, concise, introductory resource for beginner traders, who are new to these strategies. The strategy information has all been taken from the education center, success webinars and Andrew's books. I take no credit for any of the theory behind the strategies or any of the images. All credit goes to Andrew, Carlos, Peter and Hiltzy for laying out the strategies so well. I plan on doing more of these as I expand my playbook to include strategies such as Rising Devil, Fallen Angel, 1-Minute ORB, etc. So I will share those in this thread as they are made. If you have any comments, criticisms, or if I have information wrong about any of the strategies, let me know and I can make some adjustments to the sheets. Also, if you have your own playbooks / strategy resources you'd like to share, you can do so in this thread, I'd love to see what you've done. Note: Some of the information, particularly the rules such as "Place stop losses at technical levels." are notes I've made to myself based on results I have found. Some of these may not apply to you individually. Here is what they look like: The files for each strategy will be posted below.

I shared my thoughts on the classic ABCD/Flag strategy. This pattern presents itself in virtually every move, across multiple timeframes. The formation consists of: 1. Run-up/sell-off 2. Profit taking/consolidation 3. Continuation Let me know your thoughts!
