Hey Nerds: Blockchain

out of FUV at break even, holding onto AMD calls which are slightly green
 
Diamond hands definitely going on based on the low volume, but there's no one left to buy the stock it seems. Supply exceeding demand fairly significantly today. Maybe the $200 hourly support level brings in new buyers.

@axlsalinger — another pro tip if you’re intent on being a degen Reddit day trader.... you need capacity to monitor and strike fast.

one of the reasons i like interactive brokers... on their desktop app i can have the scanner and watch lists linked to my charts. so when I click on a ticker that is on my scanner or list, it immediately brings up the daily, 5 min and 1 min charts. i set up a custom layout to do this.

also being able to click rapidly click on bid/ask prices during order entry is a major key.

does IB have a video link for that. I love IB, but I hate watching their videos,,,but I'll watch that one
 
Oh wait... I forgot to mention something to the Trulievers out there.

Fair warning: the husband of the company CEO is in serious legal trouble. He is part of the Trulieve operation (isn't JUST the husband) so it could have some impacts on the stock at some point. The court date keeps being pushed back because of covid but once it's front and center I would not count out some selling pressure. Not sure when that'll take place but I suspect fairly soon.

EDIT: It's happening July of this year, though it has been pushed back 5 or 6 times already so no guarantees.

Best protip is to not be one. You're always one step behind the algos when getting your order filled on both ends, they pay big money to front run.. If you want the risky gangster play, build your own US MJ ETF of sorts and let it ride. Don't chase meme stocks.

there are some videos but i didn't really watch them... i just clicked around myself until i figured things out.

i assume you're using TWS mosaic?

on the bottom left of your main window there should be a "+" button that allows you to add a pre made layout or a custom layout. choose custom and then click "New window" to add whatever you want and once you're done be sure to save your settings. i circled the "+" button in the attached pic in purple. i added 3 windows here: chart, scanner and monitor.

to group windows together, there is a little chain icon on the top right of each individual window. i circled those in blue. if you click on it ... it gives you the option to group windows together (group 1 , 2 etc). pick the same group/colour for whatever you want to group together.

so if i click on NVAX on the scanner (bottom right window), or if i click another ticker on the list above that ... the daily chart will automatically change.

not pictured is my screen on another monitor which has the 5 min and 1 min charts as well... those are set up to be in the same group as the rest

you can link an order entry window in the same way. i don't bc i prefer not to.

Thanks man, it's not too different from what I do. I just haven't created tabs on the charts.
