We need to be social media stars

[WilliamSmith]

On the subject of alternative projects, WS, have you heard of Troy Noonan in your day-trading ventures? If so, do you think his book is worth getting? What led you into it? I like the idea that you're not investing in any American companies, which would be a bit hard to swallow, but just playing the percentages each day to try to make incremental gains.

Hey, as it happens, I was just going to ask you guys whether anyone wants me to try to write-up summaries of all the rulesets from my trading books and make a different thread on that.
It'd take awhile, but I've been thinking about doing that...

I've never heard of Troy Noonan before, but while day trading is definitely interesting and I did do it a bit and found it fun, I more dabbled with that, vs focusing on methods from these books, especially Minervini (but O'Neill and all other titles listed as well):
viewtopic.php?p=370268#p370268

I only have his books (not a member of his "insider access" subscription service or whatever he calls it), but he also has documented his sensational returns in audited US investing championships, and he's the one I'd focus on if you only choose one.

I'm not sure what the best resources are to learn day trading, though I'm still curious (and it can be especially good from time to time when markets are in some short-term bust-up).

Swing and position trading where you hold for a little longer takes off the "video game" like excitement (but also the pressure) of being glued to the screen watching the charts like in daytrading (which also can be tricky depending on where you are and reliability of internet connectivity). You can potentially hold a position indefinitely based on the price action (so if the trade's a winner you can hold it for anywhere from days to weeks or longer, and raise your stop loss to lock in profits). Also, there are actually quite a few government regulations on day traders that don't apply to swing, position, etc.
All stops are set automatically at the time of placing each trade though, so if too many little trades are fizzling due to being stopped out too soon, you can re-evaluate your ruleset... However, if you use discipline in sticking to that kind of rule-based approach where you always use a stop-loss and literally won't ever risk losing, say, 5-8% of your stake on each trade, there's literally no way to end up deep in double-digit drawdowns like so many "value investors" who are always telling everyone theories about why some stock is supposedly a winner based on 'the fundamentals', and then end up with big chunks of $$$ in some stock or ETF that's crashed into double-digit loss making territory for years...

This reminds me, I recall you like European women, gsjackson, so I'll also requote something else that I posted in that thread on this subject. (I don't follow her trading plays, but she's a Slovenian daytrader. Tsar, what do you think of her? )

What led you into it? I like the idea that you're not investing in any American companies, which would be a bit hard to swallow, but just playing the percentages each day to try to make incremental gains.

I didn't actually answer about what led me into it in the last post:

The ZOG bankers have turned the US and international markets into so much of a volatile casino that I personally have no interest in value investing (even though I acknowledge some people do succeed with it).
I read Benjamin Graham's classic value investing books (including the pretty dense "Securities Analysis") and respected them, but was just never fully convinced or comfortable with that approach, and people who use it usually invest way more $$$ and have to hold for a lot longer.
That's why (as far as I know) most people who do it that way do it as a secondary thing and rely on some other career for primary earnings, even though the successful "investors" sometimes do end up with big gains in the long run. But swing and position trading with charts and tight risk management requires no theorizing or speculation at all + can be used to make much smaller but also more frequent incremental gains, like you said.

The only thing I don't like about it (vs some other things I'm involved in) is that trading is just me applying strategies to earn $$$, so it's intellectually stimulating and rather fun (at least to me) but isn't really contributing anything else positive besides me scrapping for $$'s.

We could post links to off YouTube platforms where we can talk about political and cultural issues elsewhere that would get us demonetised from the YouTube platform.

Back on this topic of platforms (as opposed to content, themes, and how niched to make it):

If I were you guys, I'd deliberately look for something that could potentially thrive 100% on alt-tech, and only theoretically have jewtube as a background option, just as a roll of the dice for some extra publicity and possibly earnings...but prudently assuming it could be cancelled at a moment's notice by jews and sjws, so hopefully having a backup plan.

You don't want to "build a castle on shifting sands" by relying on the most infamous jew-infested platforms.

In case anything here helps, this was my thread where I started looking into uncensorable platforms (or the closest we can come to that ideal):

"Battle for an Uncensorable Internet"
viewtopic.php?f=34&t=45341

I am planning to make another thread about becoming "uncancellable" (maybe even tonight) and talk about both online and offline possibilities...

As for projects:
Since I already earn modestly, but from multiple sources and trades (not just one), or in any imminent financial trouble, I have been thinking a lot about this lately.
I don't myself want to be a social media star and have somewhat different goals from what's been listed in here in the first few posts (though it's an interesting topic), but I've been strongly considering doing some experimental projects and attempting to build and promote them entirely on alt tech platforms with a state commitment to resist censorship (e.g Bitchute, Gab, etc)....

I like the fact people are trying to create a parallel economy, and I'd actually have higher morale from some projects I already have if I was a part of something like that, instead of just having to slink in and rely on front-end platforms that spew jew Weimar 2.0 and pro-globohomo stuff in everyone's face, and then ban actual free speech or cancel non-sjws based on what they once said on social media, etc.

BTW, the recent emergence of AI technology makes this even more tempting. Pretty much all Internet work is going to be wholly or partially replaced. It is only iconic original personalities that will have a chance.

Then there's the "Deep Fake" software that can alter photos and videos to make the person's face look like someone else.

The only way this would work is if CornFucked became some kind of vitriolic, abrasive internet personality similar to Alex Jones. Anything mainstream won't work, it's already been done.

It looks like in YouTube's ongoing war on creators it is now promoting short form videos, which make no money, over everything else. Maybe being a YouTuber in the traditional sense is not viable any more. Maybe the idea is shorts as clickbait on YouTube and TikTok which then promote your e-books or whatever.

That's what I was planning to do. Does Youtube have any rules against promoting your own product on a video?

I don't think so.

Cornfed, I've argued about how you don't need "status" to get chicks before (but I know you won't listen any more than MrMan will listen to reason about jews now matter how big the mountain of irrefutable facts you put in his face), so here's a new idea for you to be a star:
We're all anti-vaxxers here, why not team up with these based Jamaican anti-vaxxers and form some kind of an acapella group (or whatever they call that when there's singers with vox only, no music)?

He's a natural teammate. He collaborated with Contrarian Expatriate to form a comedic duo that should have hit the big time. This sounds like a winner.

How muscular do you have to be to be considered "muscular" by today's standards? Maybe I need to join the gym and go on the juice just to pretend to be someone who did OK training at home.

You could be freakish if you did. As it is, if you ever got a higher profile I'd expect Greg Douchebag and More Plates More Dates to be doing an investigation into whether or not you're "natty."

The guys making a buck or two are a little more shredded. I don't really know how the demographics of that market break down, but I'd imagine it would include a lot of young men who want the cartoon super-hero look. You've got to identify your niche of the market and your value proposition.

It's crazy how someone like Leo Rex had big dreams and was actually making them happen. It's really sad to hear about his passing though. And yeah, becoming a social media star sounds nice. I mean, who wouldn't want the fame, money, and freedom that comes with it?
