{quote} I've been long on EUR/USD @ 1.17595 and my 1st TP is going to bet hit at 1.17790. If it gets to 1.17930 for my 2nd TP that's even better. Anyway, you're views on tariffs are so wrong. I'll make more money today than you will all year.
I was long SPX for today and made $1,600 before breakfast. Just a small trade. My views on tariffs or anything political, for that matter, have absolutely nothing to do with how I trade. The story on the Trump tariffs remains to be written, as most of those he's threatened have not been actually imposed. We'll see how it turns out.

We're on the same page re: E/U, the dollar will be debased much further into 2026, imho. US stocks will continue to ride the AI wave, so I'll be a dip buyer there, too. I'll buy dips @ /SI and /GC. Etc etc. Watching the bond market for early warning signs of breakage - we all know it's coming, impossible to call when.

I trade a lot of different things & have threads in the trading forums where I talk about those actual trades. That's how the site works. It's not just a place to quarrel in the news story comments.

{quote} E6 2nd target just hit, now it will probably reverse to take out the PWL. I'm done for the day. I probably didn't make more today than you will all year with your SS, but I did make more today than you will all month.
lol...I'm content with my results. Always room for improvement, though. When I have a 7-figure net trading account, I'll be satisfied. On track to be there within a couple years, knock on wood.

First, the notion that tariffs are "unconstitutional" is utterly ridiculous unless the Courts rule otherwise which Democrats would support 100% to impede the Orange man from his agenda supported by a overwhelming majority of Americans in the previous election that kept Kamala from further word salads to digest. As to p&l and dick measuring nobody really cares about anyone else's whether what's posted is truth or fiction so keep your dick in your pants and act like grownups.

I'd second the second sentence onwards.

Trump losing his unconstitutional use of tariffs will only be a terrible blow to the ego of a certain self-infatuated orange clown. It will benefit, US consumers and business, and also global trade.

Baloney. Anyone making serious cash has better things to do than be on here bragging. Just like your orange idol: people who brag can't back it up.

I have nothing except time when in a trade. Look at a 6E chart and tell me what time price hit my targets @1.17790 @1.17930 and what time I posted them on here. Go ahead. I also said the 6E will probably reverse after my second TP @ 1.17930 was hit, what is price doing right now? I've been trading for almost two decades. Do you know what the 6E even is?

We will always have the ability to tariff. How can other countries stop us from taxing ourselves? And if you don't know that whoever is the importer PAYS the tariff, please try to educate yourself a bit more. It is literally an additional line item on the invoice. There's a reason why Costco is suing for its tariff money back. It is because they have STANDING. After all, they are the ones who paid it.
