I've been investing for a couple of years. My longs are looking great, even with the most recent dips. Got confident last November and decided to learn about trading and started doing it with small money. Five months later with some losses and some gains, and my conclusion is pretty straightforward: just don't trade. Especially with Trump and the current administration, the average trader will never be able to read the market with enough confidence to know what they are doing. If you are trading, and you're not inside the market itselft, you're a gambler, accept that description. Hell, you might even have an addition.
I'm going back to DCA and holding, I don't even want to look at this shit weekly, life shouldn't be about red and green blocks, ew.
That's my five cents, take it or leave it.
