Successful trading is hard work because it means disciplining your mind to do the opposite of human nature. Buying during a panic, selling during euphoria, and holding on when you are bored and just craving a little action. Investing is 5% intellect and 95% temperament.
The most popular investment portfolio strategies include diversification, where you spread investments across different asset classes to manage risk. Another is the growth strategy, focused on capital appreciation through high-risk, high-reward assets. Income-oriented strategies target regular income from dividend stocks or bonds. Finally, there's the value strategy, seeking undervalued assets for potential long-term gains.
The truth is, the role of an investment advisor can often be overlooked but should never be underestimated. After facing a significant portfolio loss in 2020 during the COVID pandemic while trying to manage my investments on my own, I decided to reach out to an investment advisor. At that time, I had about $126K left in my portfolio. Now, without having to lift a finger, I'm semi-retired, working only 7.5 hours a week, and I'm just 15% short of my $1 million retirement goal thanks to my subsequent investments.
I'm cautious about giving specific recommendations since this is an online forum and everyone situation is unique, but I've worked with "Laurel Ann Watkins" for years and highly recommend her. Look her up to see if she meets your criteria.
Thanks for saving me hours of back and forth investigation into the markets. found her web instantly. After reviewing her credentials and conducting due diligence, i reached out to her.
@JAMR0716 its just an old saying that so many people believe in because it applies to so many things in life. Yes some people have made a lot of money using it but more people have lost than made money.
It is called front running. That's how the Rothschilds became rich. Mayer Rothschild worked as a court agent, much like today's stockbrokers. His main client was Prince William of Hesse-Kastle. Whenever William wanted to purchase gold coins, he would ask Mayer Rothschild to obtain them from the market. He would first buy the coins using borrowed money, then sell them to Prince William, effectively acting as both the buyer and the seller. This practice is known as front running in modern terms. In doing so, he profited twice, once from the 8% commission fee, and also from front running, Prince William. By 1782, Mayer Rothschild has amassed a colossal fortune and earns the position as the investment manager for Prince William's vast wealth. It was narrated that Hakeem ibn Hizaam رضي الله عنه said: "I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: 'A man comes to me wanting to buy something that I do not possess; should I buy it for him from the marketplace then sell it to him?' He said: 'Do not sell that which you do not possess.'" [At-Tirmidhi, 1232; An-Nasaa'i, 4613; Abu Dawud, 3503, Ibn Maajah, 2187, Ahmad, 14887. Classed as Saheeh by al-Albaani رحمه الله in Irwa' al-Ghaleel, 1292] Narrated Tawus رحمه الله: Ibn 'Abbas رضي الله عنهما said: "Allah's Messenger ﷺ forbade the selling of foodstuff before its measuring and (before) transferring into one's possession." I asked Ibn 'Abbas: "How is that?" Ibn 'Abbas replied: "It will be just like selling Dirhams for Dirhams (same currency for same currency i.e. Riba Al-Fadl), as the foodstuff has not been handed over to the first purchaser who is the present seller." [Sahih al-Bukhari » Sales and Trade - كتاب البيوع » Hadith 2132]

He is describing exchange arbitrage, where you buy in one exchange and sell on another while price has not been updated. Do this at the speed of light, and you make profit, but it also creates a "flash crash". The rest of traders get the worst execution possible due to high frequency orders being filled at light speeds. Whose at fault? The exchanges, brokers, investment banks for filling orders at high frequency speeds. They are obviously aware of this but it's a round business for them. There won't be "regulation" unless there is a high demand for it, most people are too lazy and unaware to even do anything about it, just like he mentioned.
Electricity, the drift of electrons, moves at a few tens of miles an hour, in the 80~130 mph range. Electric signals in wires, shock waves between electrons, signalling a change in the pressure of current upon them, moves at around 0.7~0.8 of the speed of light. Radio waves in a vacuum, if such a thing existed, would travel at "the speed of light," as would light. Nothing nowhere, not even anything electric within matter, moves "at the speed of light."
Nothing you said is true. Including the part about nothing being done. There is nothing wrong with the HFTs. There is nothing wrong with spoofing. The risk lies in a spoof order being filled. Anyone who lost money due to being fooled by a spoofing order shouldn’t be trading.

Anyone can setup a grid bot today. That's how you make money. You define a set number of entries to sell and buy at the same time and profit from the volatility. Then you define a stop and more advanced bots can even trail up the parameters of grids indefinitely and do the same on the bottom a trailing stop-loss.

It is, but HFT generally isn't considered front-running. Front running (as defined by the SEC) is trading on non-public advance knowledge of a large incoming order. The HFT dorks don't have advance knowledge of orders, they just have faster connections and can get an order out right after the retail order hits the first exchange quickly enough before the retail order gets filled. It's a question of internal speed and latency. What the HFTs do is take advantage of the fact that they pay millions of dollars in server rack space leasing fees to put their black boxes next to the black boxes that the stock market runs on, essentially. Basically, it's buying faster access and then quickly stepping on your toes to make their 1/2 a penny or whatever it is now. Real honest business ya got there, boys... wow... I mean, pathetic really if you think about it: this is what finance has become.... they can't make an honest buck by doing anything, well, honest, so they have to trick retail investors and make a piece of every trade. What a joke. HFT should be illegal, despite the "we provide liquidity which democratized finance" BS lines that they love to throw around ever since 2020 or so..... I personally think they're quite dumb and full of hubris. There is nothing honorable AT ALL about this type of "trading." It's manipulative, insidious, and basically theft....
HFT firms buy retail order flow from brokerages…they arbitrage the order, take or close a position, or send the order back into the market. This process erodes liquidity..making the overall market more fragile setting the stage for massive selloffs in the future.
@@IceDogXena What does this even mean? Do you mean "prop firm" as in those fake gambling houses? No one at a fake "prop firm" (or chop shop as I like to call them) is smart enough to even do HFT, and they definitely don't have the infrastructure. Those guys don't make real money. Or do you mean a real "prop firm" as in an actual proprietary trading firm? Plenty of proprietary trading firms have HFT strategies in that case.

Since the market is currently volatile, I will recommend that you hire a financial adviser who can advise you on entry and exit points for the shares or ETFs you focus on
You are right! I've diversified my portfolio across various markets with the aid of a financial adviser, I have been able to generate a little bit above $450k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've been stuck with *KAREN* *MARIE* *GENDRON* for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.

I noticed a difference in trading since AI became available. It can instantly see an individual trade and run it down to stop loss. I have found I can box it in with a butterfly trade until it is forced into a breakout. Doesn't always work, but it has brought up my win rate back to profit levels.
@@colecoleman1499I believe it’s taking both a long and short position at the same time. The losing trade stops out for a small loss and the winning trade makes the money. I could be wrong.

It did go poof. When you place a sell at market order, you can be filled at $100, or $.01. The market makers pulled their quotes. They violated their duty to save their skin.
Yes I have seen this 1st hand in price action. It’s so fast that humans can not effectively participate in the majority of the move. The moves are meant to be hidden - It’s the stuff “THEY” don’t want you to know. I can also understand the apparent laziness of the large banks, pension funds. They often offer out that money management function to small specialty shops based on their track record in a certain slice of the portfolio.

This isnt a new phenomena. This happened even back in the 1980's with portfolio insurance. Once electronic systems enter into a feedback loop of self destructing actions it will only worsen as more pile in. Until the damage is so egregious that stock markets hit circuit breaker events and trading shuts down for the day. Then it gets bloody over the next couple days once regular traders can sell until prices have been so bashed that large firms with liquid capital come in and scoop up assets at bottom dollar.

The HFT dorks don't have advance knowledge of orders, they just have faster connections and can get an order out right after the retail order hits the first exchange quickly enough before the retail order gets filled. It's a question of internal speed and latency. What the HFTs do is take advantage of the fact that they pay millions of dollars in server rack space leasing fees to put their black boxes next to the black boxes that the stock market runs on, essentially. Basically, it's buying faster access and then quickly stepping on your toes to make their 1/2 a penny or whatever it is now. Real honest business ya got there, boys... wow... I mean, pathetic really if you think about it: this is what finance has become.... they can't make an honest buck by doing anything, well, honest, so they have to trick retail investors and make a piece of every trade. What a joke. HFT should be illegal, despite the "we provide liquidity which democratized finance" BS lines that they love to throw around ever since 2020 or so..... I personally think they're quite dumb and full of hubris. There is nothing honorable AT ALL about this type of "trading." It's manipulative, insidious, and basically theft....
@@ScottAllenFinance so one doesn't need a brain to get rich then...banks use our deposits to buy servers and the right locations to achieve HFT...
HFT firms buy retail order flow from brokerages…they arbitrage the order, take or close a position, or send the order back into the market. This process erodes liquidity..making the overall market more fragile setting the stage for massive selloffs in the future.
Prop firms don’t allow HFT
@@IceDogXena What does this even mean?
Do you mean "prop firm" as in those fake gambling houses? No one at a fake "prop firm" (or chop shop as I like to call them) is smart enough to even do HFT, and they definitely don't have the infrastructure. Those guys don't make real money.
Or do you mean a real "prop firm" as in an actual proprietary trading firm? Plenty of proprietary trading firms have HFT strategies in that case.
1987 dow was around 2055.97 at one point ended up closing that year at 1938.83 now over 40,000 says it all. Long term investing is the best bet for most😊
Did you write the whole thing with chatgpt?
45:27 "Large areas of financial economies actually have nothing to do with real economics anymore. However, the other way around, the recent economics crises are caused by the financial industry itself."
New fears unlocked
With business sectors tumbling, expansion taking off, the Fed impressive enormous loan fee climb, while depository yields are rising quickly, and that implies more red ink for portfolios this second half of the year. How might I benefit from the ongoing unpredictable market? I'm currently at an intersection choosing if to sell my stock portfolio.
Since the market is currently volatile, I will recommend that you hire a financial adviser who can advise you on entry and exit points for the shares or ETFs you focus on
You are right! I've diversified my portfolio across various markets with the aid of a financial adviser, I have been able to generate a little bit above $450k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
Please how can i get to reach out to your adviser?
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've been stuck with *KAREN* *MARIE* *GENDRON* for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.
Thanks for this. I just googled her name and found her webpage. I'm really impressed with her credentials and I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get.
I wonder what would happen if there was a minimum time you must hold a stock, say 7 days, that would stop this type of trading and I suspect reduce insider trading. What am I missing?
This is Straight up the real ""person of interest" character
I noticed a difference in trading since AI became available. It can instantly see an individual trade and run it down to stop loss. I have found I can box it in with a butterfly trade until it is forced into a breakout. Doesn't always work, but it has brought up my win rate back to profit levels.
butterfly trade , expand on that
@@colecoleman1499I believe it’s taking both a long and short position at the same time. The losing trade stops out for a small loss and the winning trade makes the money. I could be wrong.
I never use stoploss since then I don’t make much losses never use stoploss analysis your trade correctly trade when the banks do follow there patterns.. you’ll soon make more profits , you don’t see Warren buffet use stoploss do ya ..
simple solution, force stocks to be owned for 1 minute. that's within human daytrader systems i assume...right?
Depends on the market. In futures, day trades can last just a few seconds
43:00 mentions this
Whoever is control of the system is also connected to these bots so wouldn't happen
Your video helps me learn new trading strategies and approaches. They are always very practical and applicable in real trading.
Great to hear!
Alladin from blackrock is hft. Basically market manipulation became normalized ever since then
I can only imagine what happens today and will happen in the future with AI taking over the trading business
the money didn't go poof... for every seller.. there is a buyer, else the market would not move. this is a wealth transfer. Its really is a zero sum game
but with an inexorable upward trend due to ever increasing money supply and inflation.
Remember the bots can places orders at the speed of milliseconds so by doing so with high amout of shares. It can profit large amounts of money in no time.
@@AltonMorgan77 true, but they are simply gaining the fractions of a cent on each trade. Someone likened it to sweeping up nickels with a bulldozer.
It did go poof. When you place a sell at market order, you can be filled at $100, or $.01. The market makers pulled their quotes. They violated their duty to save their skin.
Incredible how speed and technology can impact financial markets! High-frequency trading is truly a game of milliseconds. 🕒💰
most enjoyable documentary ever I seen in my whole life, please just keep make great documentaries about market and trading. ❤❤❤
We will! Thank you.
@Moconomy thank you for this documentary
Question: Is it better for an individual to use bots to trade or trade by yourself ? Maybe to use both for maximum efficiency.
Yes I have seen this 1st hand in price action. It’s so fast that humans can not effectively participate in the majority of the move. The moves are meant to be hidden - It’s the stuff “THEY” don’t want you to know. I can also understand the apparent laziness of the large banks, pension funds. They often offer out that money management function to small specialty shops based on their track record in a certain slice of the portfolio.
What does this look like on a chart?
peculiar fail with the subtitles at 49:00, hard to say what happened, maybe they were just timestamped wrong, or maybe the video editor cut out a french segment
This whole "industry" is disgusting and should be illegal.
illegal? dude they are the system 🤣
No way. I’m in the industry and it’s going to be my ticket to early retirement.
Great documentary
in the old days high frequency was called market maker, those people create liquidity, for a fraction of a cost to the other side.
Is automation the issue or corruption, I dont understand
Awesome video. At min 48 ot smth, start some subtitles that have nothing to do with the video.
Thanks for the tip!
Why did the data map show Washington D.C. connected to chicago and new york?
The homes of US important stock exchange. Chicago and NYC.
The money NEVER JUST DISAPPEARED, it went to someone else's account.
This isnt a new phenomena. This happened even back in the 1980's with portfolio insurance. Once electronic systems enter into a feedback loop of self destructing actions it will only worsen as more pile in. Until the damage is so egregious that stock markets hit circuit breaker events and trading shuts down for the day. Then it gets bloody over the next couple days once regular traders can sell until prices have been so bashed that large firms with liquid capital come in and scoop up assets at bottom dollar.
It was a bit new for traders, but, bots started in the early 1970s.
Is this author's Post revisiting very popular algorithms developed in the 1960s then implemented in the 1970s?
Bots basically closed down the NYSE and The London Stock Exchange for the reason I stated here.*

Roulette…. You do not roll the ball the same direction the wheel is spinning. Drives me nuts as soooo many ‘journalists’ get it wrong.
i think this for binary options you pointed out something that was eating up my mind
Vicious begets the same. Respect has its merits and the users are spared. Prediction has many Conditions. The winners will receive but the game can only end slight. The real vision remains, time has become unhinged from space where the path sits in an endless cycle. There might be more substance in a silent dream. The whole of it resembles an abyss and we know only as we see the other side.
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing this. Your creativity is astounding. Take care my friend.
This is the business model of Robinhood. Take the order flow from retail investors and then screw them by front running their trades.
Frontrunning is illegal and that's NOT what they do. Time to revise your opinion
Matter of second u can see the price difference between Robin hood and other trading platforms, I don't trust Robin hood now,
Wonderful video!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for your efforts Marketfeed, very interesting and useful Video, I like the way you have explained stocks, you are just like my Mentor, her strategies helps beginners to earn in the market without loss.
I Hit 110k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started last month. Financial education is indeed required for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject. thanks to Margaret Alex, for helping me achieve this..
I'm new at this, please how can I reach her?
She's mostly on Telegrams.
@FXMargaret..that's it
Ok thanks.
Very informative

Retail a tough go, always last in que even with swing or just profiting out. Many lost their shirts not stopping out after the covid run.
So you mean to tell me my insecurity of what I saw on the screens to this day from when I started on Forex in losing $200 in minutes back in 2016 moving extremely fast was validated in that these people were using bots and I was right to think to use bots too?

You didn’t lose your money due to HFT. You placed the wrong direction. Simple.

Trading is hard frustrating and exhilarating simultaneously.
only is you are new.
It's actually really easy and boring.
@@LarsLarsen77 changing market conditions keep making it hard. The key is adaptability. I found it easy too when i first started but now the market conditions have changed so much. Had it been so easy, this is what everyone would have done in the comfort of their own home. Yeah it might get easy over time as you gain more and more experiences and knowledge but it'll take a long time, maybe 4 or 5 years. I trade options and sometimes I notice some weird stuff as well. If i buy a call premium and then if a red candle appears, price of my call premium should go down but instead longer the red candle grows, the more the call premium keeps appreciating and then if a green candle appears, the call premium starts depreciating. I've not been able to fathom out why it happens.

Hmm, placing trading orders that you have no intention of executing isn’t considered market manipulation and therefore, illegal? 🤔
Unbelievable how this is not a criminal offence
Enjoyed this !
Sounds like the episode on leverage. Knew the outcome of the horse race before the bet. Had a video delay so the better saw only the beginning time the ending was predicted in real time.
Yes bots work but they will not work if you keep eye on them which is more frustrating than human trading

46:55 look at the closed caption compared to what he is saying in English.
The last quote at the end, *clap* *clap* *clap*
This old stuff from 2015....it's changed a bit with order types, etc. now allowed in 2024.

Gud points of solutions except your 5 yr limit. I'm a diy with a patent, had a provisional but claim declaration too specialized for diy. 5 years simply allow others to wait me out. 20 years offer opportunity to recoup. Otherwise great video. Goodlatte was the representative here... U didn't post his views. Ijs
too many ads on this video and also the subtitles at the end don't seem to make any sense with the dialogue
I hated not being able to read to translation french could read print is blory hard to read
Great!
just happen to watch this on this day.

1500 points is childs play. There's volatility way beyond that nowadays
