Hello Everyone! Tim here. I’ve been trading for over a decade. First brokerage account opened was with Harris Direct which became or was acquired by ETrade. Came to know of Bulls on Wall Street from a 4-day boot camp my wife gave me as a gift in 2013. Still have my screening setup from that class. I work full time so trading for me is mostly swing and long term. I have done some day trading, but realized quickly you need to be present throughout the trade to do well at that. I have traded stocks, bonds, options and futures. Latest strategy I am working on is covered calls. Would like to get back into more swing trading. I mostly use Finviz for my screening. Biggest struggle for me is exit strategy and consistency. One item I need to work on more is journaling my trades. Thanks, Tim
@Adam Nuszloch Hi Adam. That’s a lot of books read. Any specifically you would recommend? I’m currently reading Options as a Strategic Investment by Lawerence McMillan. It’s lengthy, but have found it to be informative and started using some of what I learned from it to improve my options trading. Best regards, Tim
