Hi Everyone, For those who don't know, every Friday @Aiman Almansoori posts weekly Simulator training ideas! They are based on trending stocks of the day and stocks that our moderators focused on. He chooses two per day, each have multiple strategies to look for, the time to focus on them, a written analysis, and what the catalyst was for the day. It also includes a watch list for all of our moderators from the past week! Check it out here!

We will be updating this every week and announcing once updated here! If you guys have any suggestions or want any more details let us know how to make it better!

One other thing to note is that when you do hit the second hotkey, your order will look like a range order (see picture below). This is actually visually showing your "fill up to" range (Thanks for explaining this Kyle!) This is a little embarrassing, but I think I had this hotkey working quite awhile ago, I just didn't understand what I was seeing! I thought it was some kind of weird range order, that the script wasn't working, and so I always cancelled it before triggering and went back to the drawing board! And just going to tag some people who I know were interested in this in another thread: @Travis Weirich @peterB @JenniferL @WindssKat @Ryan Wilson

Hi everyone! My name is Cindy. I'm 25 years old and from San Francisco. I'm new to trading as I just started learning in April. I'm currently working as a full-time pharmacist. I realized that my student debt would take way too long to pay off for the life I want to live. I found out about trading and felt that it would be a good path to head down with the eventual goal of working less hours and having more freedom in life. I was learning from a different community but didn't like the vibe and didn't feel like the members were very supportive of each other. I was also searching for more information to learn when I found Andrew's book and BBT. I decided to try BBT's 1 week trial last week and was blown away by the professionalism and level of support members had for each other in this group. I felt like I learned so much more in 1 week with through this platform than I did in the entire month of April so I HAD to join. I'm so excited to keep learning and growing with everyone! Cindy

Hi everyone! My name is Ashley and I’m from NJ. I’m pretty new to day trading but am so glad I found the BBT community. During the day I work from 9-5 however, after reading both of Andrews books, trading is definitely something I’m interested in pursuing! I’ve learned so much in a short amount of time here and am looking forward to learning more and getting to know everyone!

Hello all, I'm David (Smith) so one of the three or four 'David S' in chat. I live in southwestern Connecticut. After a career of 30 years in IT, including consulting and development work, I had just grown weary of dealing with clients on a daily basis. I too have a finance degree as others have mentioned here, but after that fateful first job out of college, I was well down the IT path. Have always had an interest in the markets, and based on proximity to where I live have many friends that are full-time Wall Street types. Started reading and learning about day trading in the Fall of 2016 and began trading exactly a year ago today, so Jan 10th 2017. Would love to say I was a huge success, but had a couple of day trades that I turned into "investments" because I couldn't let go of the loss the day I entered the trade. Only to liquidate months later with much greater losses. By September, outside of my two big mistakes, I was more or less breakeven from a gain loss perspective but my p&l was bad because of commissions. Needed to change up things and looked around for some additional reading material and found Andrew's book. Really like how unassuming and down to earth his approach is and accessible to new traders. Signed up for chat, classes and sim where I traded Oct-Nov-Dec. Back live now in January and working towards consistency. My biggest enemy right now is overtrading, and that is my primary objective for the next few months, take only well thought out trades and don't jump into anything. Really like the chat community and look forward to hearing more about your successes and challenges as we all build our trading competency. Cheers.
