Movies Watched -- Birth (2004)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

100 minute running time so the perfect length … I’m a huge fan of Jonathan Glazer, but had never seen his second movie, Birth. It is a weird one and the mainstream critics HATED it, but I didn’t mind it, in fact I liked it, it’s definitely NOT terrible, and I’ve added a copy to my permanent collection. I love Nicole Kidman, she’s super talented. It’s a love story, but a twisted one. I would recommend it if you like Glazer and are a completist like me. Green-go!

  • GME personal record trade in June 2024, got long June 4 and added June 5

  • GME sold into the parabolic move on June 6, 2024, then re-longed it sold most AH in $60s

  • You have to be OK with missing trades

  • Wakes up just before open, lets dust settle, then looks for plays with volume

  • Works out, stays active, all routines he follows

  • TradeIdeas is essential, a huge tool

  • Use ThinkOrSwim's scanner if you can't afford TradeIdeas

  • Does NOT have a broker max loss

  • Fear and shame keeps him from disrespecting his max loss

  • Need to address underlying issues if you need broker max loss

  • Sizing up he has written about on Reddit

  • Sizing up is very individual... has to do with your mind/subconscious

  • You will naturally get more comfortable in small steps

  • Sizing should not be robotic, you have to feel good emotionally, risk your "profits"

  • His greatest strength is patience

  • Best advice: start small!

  • You should quit trading if you are considering quitting, quit and reset

  • Trading IS a get rich quick scheme

  • Don't get grass is greener syndrome
