Do not worry, your account is not being locked. IB has a security system which prevents you to open your fourth trade if you have already made 3 day-trades. Because of that you cannot fall under PDT rule and you account cannot get locked. That said you (and me) need to be careful because we can let`s say 2 day-trades and than you enter into two new trades and in that case you can close one of them because if you would close both you would made 4 day-trades and acc would be locked. Great video!

IB does not allow you to take an overnight 4th daytrade, once your out, you are out, where other borkers will let you take the 4th trade for overnight, IB does not. thank you Tim

How do you get around the 3-day settle period for the stocks? Trade on margin? Or, do you just budget 33% of your account value per day?

Holding overnight can screw you even more. What if you start the day down .20 cent? Then you are taking a .20 cent loss even if you sell right away.

The more WE ALL share are lessons learnt, both good and bad, the faster we all learn. Another awesome video full of valuable lessons. I only just thought about this, but with penny stocking silver I'm paying you approx $3.33 a day! Frikkin ridiculous if people can't accept paying that tiny amount, yet they want to make money probably by doing next to nothing!! I'd happily pay 10 times this! Gonna do a proper review on you Tim and Profitly to prove the insane value. A pint of beer costs more!!!..

will you share the overall potential watch list of the #bigspikers you have gathered? Or is there a resource to obtain a Supernova list based on specific criteria?

Nothing is more frustrating about trading a small account than having your funds withheld from you, whether" settling" for 3 days in a Cash Account or waiting 5 rolling days with just 3 trades under PDT rule in a Margin Account and having to watch great setups come and go! They waste a lot of good profit opportunities and delay your progress. Thanks Tim...I have a few trades I dread showing so won't be rushing until I have a few I am proud of as well : )...is that okay?

@timothysykes Sounds like a 50/50 chance I will pass. One of my personal rules is not to hold overnight. Unless it is a long term play that I will be holding 6 months to several years.

@timothysykes hey Tim, im a challenge student. you said that ZFGN was a good overnight long but werent you scared for bidder share holders from the previous spike to be trying to cut even ? and didnt you take in consideration that the stock was at mid range and not even close to the highs of its day ?

timothysykes
timothysykesJan 25, 16 2:53 PM

@thsalama I wasn't long overnight ZFGN it was a morning spike only

Pharaoh_trades
Pharaoh_tradesJan 25, 16 3:14 PM

I understand, but you said it was a good cup and handle and thats why you anticipated it gaping up in the morning. But i meant is that didn't you take in consideration that it was mid range and not close to the highs of that day ? ( because normally stocks like that dont gap up the next day) or maybe im just wrong. @timothysykes

timothysykesJan 25, 16 4:22 PM

@thsalama cop and handle in the morning, all about whether it can squeeze when it goes green on the day

Keep track of day trades and focus on the best setups. When you have a small account look for trades that are better for o/n so that you don't waste day trades.

Thanks Tim. I also missed 2 opportunities this week on TMSP and NUGS taking it o/n but I just didn't pull the trigger although I was dead on with both of them. Glad to see that it happened to you too
