Honestly this was a good clean trade. I did sit in a bit of red but nothing crazy. Currently getting back my confidence because I totally destroyed that in the middle of March… trading has been so mentally draining even on my good days I still find a way to fuck it up… Going to journal more on here for my sake. At the end of the day I just want money and to disappear. I find peace being alone but that’s only if I’m financially stable..
Trade: 545p 0DTE 6cons fill @ .40 > .95
Happy Tuesday
I woke up late today but was only focused on the downside as planned. Glad the move didn’t happen while I was asleep lol. 2-0 on the day. I could have definitely held my first position longer but I wanted to take my base hit. Definitely had to get the jitters out because I loaded the account with 2.5k.
2nd trade was continuation on the downside. We hit my levels. Overall I give today 8.9/10 only improvement was to zoom out and trust the trade a bit more.
Happy Weds!
So I was upset I let 3.4k go because I didn’t sell on time and held a bit more…. But it is what it is. We up 1k+ on the week. Continuing this grind back up!
Another W for the day! Definitely emphasizing on SELLING EARLY. Gosh damn man I really could have been up fatter than a fat kid who loves cake… sorry my greed speaking….
All I can prayer for is Green Days… being consistent on top of it. I feel like we back in that mode right now and I’m not letting my foot off the gas. But lowkey this is making me not want to work…
(Side note)
during my red streak it pushed me to go and find a job… but since things are coming back I should have trusted my gut…. The original plan… spending the full year trading… and then if it doesn’t work out sure… I just don’t like giving up my trading days because I’ll miss out on potential money. Anyways God is good for these past couple days. Happy Thursday everyone!
Narrative
I'd thought about some facebooking or twitter as they have more accessibility to the bumper-sticker thinker of the modern era, but anyone who's got a position on Syria that can be summed up in 250 characters or less is a fucking moron, so get a snack and settle in.
Assumptions
It'd be disingenuous and daft to suggest that I'm going into this without assumptions, so here they are. If you disagree with these points, then you can stop here- I understand that not everyone trusts some of these things to be true as I do and that's understandable, but if you don't subscribe to these points then the discussion isn't going to be fruitful.
Chemical weapons were deployed in Syria repeatedly, most notably in the Demascus incident.
The Assad regime is the responsible party for these attacks.
The Assad regime possesses the means to manufacture such weapons and has a stockpile as implicitly admitted by their foreign minister yesterday.
The US intelligence mechanism is adequately efficient and has compiled a sufficient case that awaiting UN inspection results is now redundant.
Regime change is not a sought after goal, but if it were to happen spontaneously without our handling of it or its costs directly we wouldn't mind.
The Play by Play for The Limited Strike
In the immediate future, the Russian initiative runs to ground and military strikes begin. Assad regime targets involved in the manufacture, storage and deployment of chemical weapons are hit and there is collateral damage to that organization as nearby assets are damaged by bombs and cruise missiles.
The Risks
The chemical weapons are not fully and completely destroyed and a contamination event occurs in which sarin or other deadly substances waft over Syria and her neighbors leading to mass casualties.
Destruction of the weapons are incomplete in this fashion and they are salvaged by "interested parties." Who interested parties are and what their agenda for those weapons are is anyone's guess at that point, but it's bad news as will be discussed in further detail below.
The Benefits
Assad's military is suddenly fighting a multi-front conflict, and one of those fronts is the West led by US military assets. Assad doesn't necessarily fold, but his war machine is thrown into disarray in the wake of the attacks and is significantly hampered in its efforts to restore dominance over the rebels. No predictions from me on how the war ends.
The international community restores credibility in its ability to, in fact, reign in WMD manufacture without a full-on invasion.
Risk to western warfighters and inspectors is reduced compared to the Russian plan.
Development of the facilities needed for Syria to responsibly destroy its weapons is avoided in part as most of the weapons are destroyed in the attacks How to deal with the remainder is a relevant question as no one has as yet addressed- who will foot that bill? The US and Russia have both invested billions since the end of the Cold War to accomplish the same task, and we're not done with disposing of our chemical weapons yet. We started dismantling in '97 here in the states.
The Play by Play for the Russian Initiative
In the next few weeks, a UN resolution comes to pass along the lines of that being put together in France requiring the relinquishing of all chemical weapons by the Assad regime. In the following weeks, inspection teams are put together and preparations are made for them and disposal teams to enter the country and remove the weapons.
That's in the long run. At the moment, a frantic game of cat and mouse is no doubt being played between the western intelligence community and those men who Assad has no doubt ordered to eliminate records of the bulk of his chemical weapons and to liquidate the those assets in the international terrorist black market. The one group is trying very hard to keep track as well as they can for where these weapons are and the other is racing to get them out of sight. More below.
Over the course of the next decade or more, the international community pours billions of dollars into dismantling these weapons, extracting them, tracking them and keeping them out of the wrong hands. The task requires, implicitly, that boots end up on the ground in Syria to ensure that the UN disarmament teams can do their jobs.
The Risks
When the UN resolution passes and those inspectors go to Syria, they face all kinds of challenges. They came under fire and weren't able to complete their missions when they were there for simple humanitarian inspections and the only thing that might suggest that they'd have more luck this time around is that the alternative for Assad is a military solution to his weapons. The short version of all this is that the naive expectation of many is that the Russian initiative is a bloodless, cheap option by comparison that leads to fewer western lives lost and more weapons accounted for is a beautiful but unrealistic pipe-dream.
It's an option, and it has risks just like a military strike does in terms of lives lost, weapons unaccounted for, and money spent in the billions.
It's heavy stuff, thought you could use the joke about now.
There's no guarantee that blue-helmeted UN guards and their inspectors and disposal teams will be able to achieve safe passage in a country now saturated with fighters from groups like Hezbollah and Al Qaeda who aren't going to just capitulate because we threaten to blow up the weapons of Assad. We call them radical extremists for a reason.
Those organizations and the other groups that now fight in that country as well as the untenable security situation there make it all the more imperative that any solution to the chemical weapon issue be swift. As Assad's guys scramble to get rid of those weapons and raise him some revenue to continue a costly, two-year war, there's no telling who they'll get to buy from them.
I guarantee this though: if Assad's government wants to sell chemical weapons at closeout bargain prices in Syria, they won't have much trouble finding a buyer, perhaps in Iran or Iraqi insurgents or perhaps just the first at hand militant organization willing to cough up cash to take the weapons off Assad's hands. Whoever that may be and whatever their targets may be.
The same risks with not destroying the weapons thoroughly in a military strike are present in a protracted diplomatic engagement, all kinds of interested parties can get access to these weapons right now as you read.
The Biggest Risk
The biggest risk on the table is with the diplomatic solution, because while our intel guys scramble to keep track of these weapons, ultimately Assad's guys are the ones with their hands on them, and that means that sooner or later, they're going to disappear to God knows where.
If- and this is not an if that is out of the question- the Russian initiative evaporates in coming days or weeks, Assad's guys will be right where they were the other day and we'll be right where we were the other day looking at cruise missiles and bombs. The only difference is that the weapons we want to explode may very well no longer be there anymore.
If that's the case, then we've wasted precious time with the weapons still in our sights and in Syria and now what was a "Syrian Question" becomes a global WMD proliferation nightmare that I don't care to contemplate further at this time.
In Sum
Neither plan is without its risks. I'm not by any means a war-hawk. However, I believe in the ability of the black market to move illicit goods and I believe in the integrity of the modern US intelligence infrastructure. Indeed, the very strength of that capability has been under fire for months now, you've either got to claim that we don't know what's going on or that we're spying on literally everyone, can't have it both ways.
When I examine the potential risks and the scenarios that grow out of either of these options being mishandled, it looks grim. In the end however, the most immediate response that offers the best risk and prevents Assad from deploying these weapons again is best.
The assumption seems to be that he's going to stop at one outrage and one war crime, that we've put him on notice and that he wouldn't dare to use such weapons again. After all, the US is threatening attack and the international community is actually cooperating. That's the logic in any event, but desperate men are often beyond logic, and it's awfully early to rule out the possibility of another chemical attack.
Conclusion
I appreciate the risks and I understand if you prefer to hope for the best, but I don't intend to be one of those who regretted not calling for action when we still had the chance a la Rwanda or the Rhineland. "Peace in our time" sounds like a great relief for everyone, but I'd urge you to remember that not every military solution is the ill-considered knee jerk of an overgrown, paranoid man-child who wants to land on a carrier with a "mission accomplished" banner, and not every hailed peace agreement is the work of a visionary who has saved the world.
Some threats to our national and international security are credible and do demand action, and when we see that that's the case, we ought to act.
If you cast a member of Stray Kids as Choso, who would it be??
guys ive came to the conclusion thats im a child of hermes. so instead if taking all those quizzes i decided to look back kn what my mom did and her hobbies and stuff like that. so my mom traveled alot when she was younger and never stayed in one place longer than a year or two. she also did gymnastics, track, dancing, and toher stuff like that which i think ties in. but i could also be a child of apollo because my mother has always been a really big outdoorsy person. she used to do drama and she loves being in the sun and by flowers and stuff like that. but if my dad was my real parent i would have no clue to be honest, if i had to choose maybe nemesis ir nike. my dad had always been and big sports person and LOVESS winning. but my dad is also really about gives people the justice that they deserve. anyways that was my little tangent. byee!!

Rolling around against the soft sheets that wrapped around my half nude body as I practically whimpered at the things my girlfriend did to me in my dream, only to be woken up by my actual girlfriend. "Baby, are you okay? You're all sweaty and whiney..." I looked at her squinting to read her expression in the dark room, before leaning over to cut the light on. "What?" She laughed softy before pulling me into her chest, I felt the side of my sweaty face being pressed against her pillowy boobs, I felt like I was in heaven. "What were you dreaming about pretty girl?" I looked up at her and smiled bashfully before pushing her down onto the bed and sitting on top of her each of my thighs on the side of her waist. "Just how good it feels when you eat me out." She looked up at me and smiled before bringing her hands to my thighs and then my waist. "Oh yeah?" I leaned down close to her lips barely letting them touch before mumbling a soft "Yeah." into her lips as I kissed her. I slid my hips down so my pussy was in line with hers. I slid my hand down in between us and slipped it into her panties, tracing figure eights along her clit feeling as her body stutters against mine. "You like that?" I pull back from this kiss still moving my fingers before using my free hand to push her hair out of her face. "Alot." I smiled once more now removing my finger and pulling down her panties and mine. "As much as I'd love to recreate my dream I can't. Cause damn, I really fucking need you." I pushed her legs up to fold her knees in reach with her still covered breast whilst I undid my bra and then laid myself at the perfect angle to where her clit was lined perfectly with mine. I gave a gentle testing grind to make sure that whilst stimulating myself I could stimulate her, her somewhat loud moan being everything I need to tell me that I was doing right. But before I could start, I had to remove her bra, I reveled in the sight of her boobs, bare or not. I placed a hand on her boob before grinding with a bit more force now, the pleasure striking from my core all the way down to the tip of my toes. I sped up the little pushes feeling her body quiver in pleasure undermine while her moans grew in volume and intensity. "Shh baby, we wouldn't want the neighbors to hear now, would we? Let 'em hear how good I fuck you in the middle of the night?" She shook her head no, and I leaned down to kiss her, swallowing every moan she sent my way and pushing my hips against hers even harsher before moving my finger to massage her scalp through her tangled hair that flung around her head and clung to her sweaty face. I pulled back feeling myself getting close knowing she finishes before me she must be holding it, I pushed with more force feeling my arousal pool out and mix with her that had also started pouring out of her hole. "You're so needy for me princess." Her moans got louder, I could feel her body shake as she reached her highly anticipated orgasm following in her footsteps, I reached mine, moaning her name out in pure ecstasy. "I have a feeling we're going to sleep well tonight.
