My 1 Year Anniversary of Full Time Day Trading. 3 Years In The Business. What I Wish I Could Tell Myself Years Ago.
This industry has a lack of transparency so I'm more than happy to say I will provide lots of that throughout this post with screenshots. There are LOTS of imgur links to back what I say so it's not just words on a post expecting you to just believe what I'm typing. This post I suppose is "Part 2" my post back in April, "After 2 years of Daytrading. 7 months full time. Here's my advice". I'm doing this to update everyone who came/comes across this in the future. Yes, it is possible. No, it won't be easy. You will pay homage to the rite of passage into this career. I'll also provide some examples of styles of trading so for the newer aspiring traders, there will be some things I rarely see discussed on forums. So here's to 1 year of Full Time Day Trading TL;DR - You'll become desensitized to trading. Stubborn to other strategies (There are biggebaddemore lucrative strategies. Don't chase them. Why fix what's not broken? I know what works for me and I'm content with it. No strategy is better than another. It's a personal choice. ). Losing individual trades won't faze you, they're inevitable. Profiting certainly feels better. After a while, you won't be as enthralled to trade every morning, it'll become just another part of your day). Trading is just managing your money through a statistic and the medium to execute it is trading on your platform. Think: "If. Then. Because". Your trading plan should be that black and white. Ask "Why" for everything you do and use. If you can't answer it with documented results, drop it. I get a bunch of messages all the time from people asking - . Out of those who follow me and chat me seeking further tips through my previous posts. I'll be answering the FAQ's and addressing things I see frequently in this sub as far as trading axioms Disclaimer: I won't sugarcoat anything. I'll share my experiences and add pieces of advice I'd give to those who are currently experiencing the same thing becoming a full time day trader and what day to day life is like, the occasional distress, (DRAWDOWNS). Some of you follow my Twitter for the past few months where I post my daily watchlists with a snippet that reveals my DayTradingBuyingPower. I do this not to brag but to demonstrate that the account does yield growth, I pay myself, and there are days where the balance does not move because there was no edge. I also do this since nobody else shows their account performance. (Yes. You, Mr. YouTube gurus and wannabe gurus). We do this for income, the numbers on our accounts are real. Treat it as such. Get your initial capital out of your account THEN try to "Scale your account" with your profits AKA The Market's Money. I'll go over: •FAQ's that I get in my inbox (I'm still welcome to further questions if I don't answer here) •Decision Fatigue (You will experience this) •The previous year (2019-2020) of ups and downs •How to use my watchlists that I post on Twitter in the morning to your advantage •The pivotal moment that changed my trading career (NFLX 10-17-19) •The road to becoming a full time trader. (It won't be fun unless you're handed the money) •You'll have a better grasp of my strategy (Between ProTip 4 and 5. ProTip 8.) There are 10 "ProTips" throughout the post that I wish I could tell myself years back and I'll periodically throw them in here as the post goes on. I make posts long in order to segregate those serious about this business and those who will just become another statistic in the failure rate of this business. At the end of this post, I'll go over the frequent questions I receive such as: (Answers to FAQ at bottom of post.)
"How do you prepare for a trading day?"
"What would you go back to tell yourself?"
"Books?" (The most abused question, but I get it. I could start a public library with just trading books I bought over the years)
"What is your background?"
"What is a normal day for you?"
"How did you discover your strategy?"
"What did you do/How did you get started?"
"What is your % return?" (Not a fun question since a trading account is not an index or investment account. Intraday traders do not measure performance in %. Most are measured in "R".)
"Is enough to start trading?"
"Why do you need so many monitors"? (This one is rarely asked but I do see it discussed on platforms and people trading on mobile phones love giving flack to anybody who trades on multiple monitors. Hint: Everyone's different. Whatever works for the individual. There are no rules in trading. The only rule is that it works.)
My story:
Background: I heard about daytrading during the 2008 crash while in high school. We all want to make more while working less. I entertained day trading from time to time but always realized I never had enough money. Horrible mindset because I could have still researched WHILE saving money to put into my trading business. 2015 -I opened my first trading account with Scottrade while in the Marines. Apparently if you have a net worth of over $1,000,000 you can get out early (Biggest rumor ever). I frivolously bought crap penny stocks. In short - I was a hair away from gambling. What made it NOT gambling was the fact that at least I owned something tangible (Securities of a company) and anything can happen. Buy low sell high was my strategy. Didn't work obviously. No idea what I was doing. I'd buy and hold hoping to wake up to the stock price being way higher and it never happened. •ProTip #1 : If you hold a trade overnight... It is not daytrading. Stop turning into an investor because you can't admit a minor defeat. 2017 - I started taking this business seriously while working in the oilfield as a Logistics Planner (If you're wondering what company since I am asked this from time to time, Google: "World's largest oilfield services company"). No kids, girlfriend/wife or financial obligations. I worked 10AM - 7PM CST and would trade the open from home for roughly 1 hour. Later I was offered to be a Data Analyst... Only downside was... I couldn't trade since I had to be at work now at 8AM CST during the market open. In the moment of signing the offer letter, I was bummed thinking, "No more trading," That wasn't the case though. You can still build your trading business with a 9-5 and while never making one trade. The data is there. •ProTip #2 :We all see the same data. It's there forever. Many strategies show their edge both live and in hindsight the same. (Especially if you trade patterns). You CAN build your business as a trader without even taking a trade. You CAN build your strategy while working a 9-5. Just because you're not trading, does not mean you can't build your business through research. You won't know how you'll react to the losses but at least you can diagnose the raw data with a large enough sample size for assurance and confidence. If you have a 9-5 and want to go fulltime into this business. Stay for a bit, save, live so far beneath your means that it is almost miserable, (depending on your expenses, area you live, family etc) and get a few hundred sample sizes of your strategy! And for your PTO/days off... trade the open. I sacrificed my vacation days to trade. After 2 years in corporate America, eating cheap food, never going out, saving relentlessly, I made the decision to just do it and resigned. I went straight into the ring of fire known as trading. That was on: September 23rd, 2019 ""(Sound familiar?) When you hear these types of comments.. your response should be: "Nobody put the time I put into this. The 90%+ who fail, don't have it all written out, computerized backtests, manual backtests, statistics, SOP manuals, JUST like the job I have which is a business, I'm just another cog in their wheel. I'll just be wearing all the hats in my trading business. Instead of Oil&Gas, it's just for trading". One thing I see here a lot is people saying to trade X amount of months/years or make X. •ProTip #3 -Think in man hours, not calendar. Example: Trader A puts in 1 hour of study/work/research everyday for 1 year. (365 Hours) Trader B puts in 12 hours of work every day for 4 months. (~1,450 Hours) Trader A lives in a major city while Trader B lives in the middle of nowhere. (Think cost of living) 2 totally different living expenses and 2 different calibers of dedication. I'd put my money on Trader B because he put in more man hours. (~1,000 more hours on the clock to be more exact). ProTip #4 - Have a cushion in your account AND your personal bank account. Having a strategy is great but you won't know entirely if you can fulfill and execute your plan until you experience the ups and downs both short and long term. A strategy is constant over long periods of time... there will be days, weeks, and perhaps a month here and there where you aren't making much money. We hear all the time, "Trade like a casino". Casinos don't make money day after day but the odds are in there favor over the long haul. Month 1 of full time trading was great: Immediately after going full time, the first month (September 2019 to October 2019), I did super well. Business as usual. No stress. Everything going as planned. No turbulence. At least not like I had ever experienced... The 2 prerequisites I had before resigning was:
Show consistency in returns. Consistent Sharpe Ratio.
Make a 4 figure trade (I achieved this while short 100 shares on ROKU September 20th, 2019 and even made a victory post if you scroll down my profile's posts.)
First life-changing trading lesson learned as a full time trader: That money printing spree ended on NFLX October 17th, 2019. Less than 1 month of being a full time trader. Deviating and going against my plan I actually made $500 in a matter of 4 minutes. If you follow my watchlists on Twitter, I always trade with the direction of the gap. If I notate, "Long Watches" that means I will only trade it IF (and only IF) I see a long biased pattern. Likewise I will only be looking to short my "Short Watches". Plenty of times I'll call out a ticker and it immediately goes the other way. No harm no foul because there was no long biased pattern to confirm my thesis. On 10-17-2019, I went against my plan and it worked.. NFLX gapped up to resistance and I went short when it tanked off of a short pattern.(This is known as fading). The market gave me a free lunch and then some. So now I'm walking on air in my mind: "I'm an absolute unit" "I'll do it again and clear another $500 to make it a 4 figure day before 9:30AM Central" "Should have quit my job way earlier being this good." Within 30 minutes of the open. I gave all $500 back. Yes I wanted to trade it back. Never have I had the desire to smash anything but I do understand those who do! Yes I stood there and felt like each passing second was wasted opportunity. The next 24 hours were long! ProTip #5:It's circumstances like that that help you in the long run. FunFact: I never once deviated from my plan since. Not ever again. "I could have paid for my groceries and electric for the month after 4 minutes of trading if I just took the free pass the market gave me" I felt dumb but in hindsight, I'm glad at what happened. It was this exact instance that married me to my strategy/business plan. The next day and the 7 trading days following. I didn't make 1 profiting trade. My longest ever drawdown - 11 straight trades. While researching I found out this was Decision Fatigue (I'll go over this shortly below) Put yourself in that situation... You have bills and your income is strictly trading. I don't care how much a robot you think you are or how strongly you believe in probabilities, when you were in an office less than a month ago making almost 6 figures sitting in an air conditioned office knowing direct deposit is on its way every other Friday no matter how well or poorly you performed at work.. Now you're in the hot seat. Its a bottomless feeling. Now all of your friends and families words are ringing in your head. But just like a boxing match.. you gotta take a hit to get a hit. Win some, lose some, shake hands and get back to normal life. Water under the bridge. Mind you: •No guaranteed direct deposit every 2 weeks. •No more medical/dental insurance. •401K retirement is no longer being matched. 11 trades is nothing. You only require ~5.5 trades at 2:1RRR to make it back OR 3.5 trades at 3:1RRR. It's nothing especially in your research because you can easily just scroll a little more and see, "Oh that's just a drawdown. No big deal". How will you react in real time? Will you buckle or choke? But the thing is, I was skipping trades out of fear and JUST so happened to be picking all of the unsuccessful ones. (Decision Fatigue) Think about those 2 weeks of being in a drawdown. Half of the month. You're not just stagnant, your account is bleeding slowly but surely. Next time you're looking at your spreadsheet/backtest/predictive model/research.. try to put yourself in those days of drawdown. It's not just 11 boxes of red with "-1R" or "Loss" in them. The screenshot above on Imgur is just a recent example. Think about your daily routine, going to the gym, hanging with friends, grocery shopping, cooking, going to bed, waking up, doing a routine, then losing again.. and again.. and again. Try to think of life during those 300+ hours (Weekends too) of, "I haven't made money. I've lost money. And I still have bills. After paying them, I'll be closer to my set Risk of Ruin". Here's a lesson you won't learn before going fulltime but I'll do my best to emphasize it here: Pick a strategy. And stick with it. It can literally be anything. Don't spread yourself thin watching 20+ tickers and be a jack of all patterns/tickers. Be a master of 1 pattern and master of 1 circumstance. There's this real thing called "Decision Fatigue" which explains exactly why what happened.. happened. The article explains that the 2 outcomes of this mental strain known as "Decision Fatigue" is:
Risky Decision-Making
Decision Avoidance
Sound familiar? Does it kind of make sense now? As a new trader you have YouTube, Facebook, StockTwits, Twitter, "gurus", books recommended on Amazon, all throwing their ideas/strategies around, the market has opportunities littered all over.. Decision Fatigue is inevitable for the unprepared. Decision Fatigue happens in every profession. If you mess up at your 9-5, its just a blunder, your paycheck will remain the same. Just a slap on the wrist and move on. With trading, you make a mistake.. it's less food on your table, lights don't stay on, and/or water isn't running. That pressure adds up. No wonder so many fail... The signs of Decision Fatigue: •Procrastination. •Impulsivity. •Avoidance. •Indecision. When you find what clicks with you AND its either statistically or performance proven, have the courage to risk a healthy sum of your capital into it. There are strategies/patterns/styles of trading littered all over the internet: Very broad example: "IFcircumstance happensTHEN"Execution". Stoploss is XYZ. Target is XYZ.BECAUSEover a series of Y trades, I will make $X,XXX.xx". ProTip #6 :Strategies are all over the internet. It's your account/money, backtest it. People share their strategies here all the time and although I don't agree with them because I know what works for me, it's something to chew off of for you newer traders. YouTube is a harbor with people who give just enough info to figure their style out.You will lose trades. Sit for some screen-time and pay homage to the edge that you discover. All in due time. Insert key metrics and find correlations. This is how you create checks and balances to create/formulate a black and white trading plan. When I first started doing this, my spreadsheet(s) had so many columns it was annoying and would kill my desire to continue working. You'll find things that are imperative and some that are unimportant. For a lack of more colorful terms: "Throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks"Trim the fat. Rinse and repeat.
Here's some things I used to remind myself of and perhaps it'll ring some bells for you:
•Surrender your capital to your edge. If you truly accept the risk and trust your proven edge, losses don't feel like anything nor do profits. Although we're not here to put on losing trades and yes it does feel nice to profit. I still from time to time will excited when I hit target after a series of multiple profiting trades depending on my mood. •If you're nervous or your heart starts beating quicker when you hear the sound effect of a trade getting entered/filled. Be honest with yourself and ask yourself if you're truly accepting the risk. •Things you can't take to the bank:
RRR.
Win-Rate
Number of trades.
"This one great trade that I hit target in less than 30 seconds and I got filled better than expected"
All of these are integral metrics. But you're trading to make money. It's up or down, green or red, profit or loss, TRUE or FALSE. So with that said, find what works flawlessly and is easy to follow. Checks and Balances. Then allocate a good sum of risk into it. I read it here all the time, "Don't risk too much" and that's great and true for new traders. But don't sell yourself short. Push yourself over the edge and admit that you know your stuff. Think of Trader A and Trader B. If you've put the time in.. don't sell yourself short. You've built enough courage to learn a business so many fail at. This business has such a negative connotation. But remember that not everybody can handle meritocracies and that's exactly what the market is. Don't try to be the best, just work harder than everyone else and the output of your input will be relative. ProTip #7:YouTube trading ads from gurus... they're subconsciously making you think you're a novice trader.It's in their marketing. They study marketing psychology. The EASIEST things to sell:
Health
Wealth
Happiness
People that are desperate for those things are the most vulnerable and these "Traders" marketers are fantastic at portraying all 3 of those things at once. •ProTip #8 (Broken record alert) :Write a business plan. Your strategy shouldn't take longer than 4 sentences to explain to another trader. When you have a plan that's proven through a statistic and WAIT for it to happen, you feel100Xbetter taking the trade. You don't even care too much when it results in a loss. Because that was your plan, you accept it much better, and you know it was just an expense for a winning trade. Want my strategy? "I scan for stocks with a market cap of over 250M, 10k shares premarket, gapping to support or resistance, priced over $10, and I look for a pattern biased to the direction of the overnight gap. It isn't rocket science. Check my Twitter, look at the dates I posted, and you'll notice the gist. Yes this is an edge but not the entire edge. How fast can you sift through 15 time frames? How long does it take you to fill out your order ticket? Your Fibonacci time extensions with 5 EMA's and Bollinger Bands aren't helping you. They're lagging. If they work for you, great. In my experience, they hindered my visibility. Pro Tip #9: Yes statistics are highly applicable to trading. Patternsdowork. All patterns do is tell you WHEN to enteexit, and how many shares. Humans will never think differently of money. Be the frontrunner of the market's emotions. Nobody remembers the indecisive leader. Risk taking is a commonality amongst leaders. Trading requires courage and it's O.K. to show a bit of confidence as long as you also have the humility to admit when you're in a bad trade.(Notice how I didn't put, "wrong". You're only "wrong" when you deviate from a proven strategy.) ProTip #10:Risk management is 24/7. I've never heard anyone mention this but think about it a little bit. Having financial obligations can become stressful regardless of how you earn your income but its far more stressful while running a business. Not just any business, but a business where you can go to work on your A-game, do every single last thing right, trade without emotion etc... and still walk away with less money than what you came to work with. Meanwhile somebody who JUST started trading made a 4 figure profit not knowing what the heck the difference betweenETB, HTB, or NTB. Think of it like this, a JV high school baseball player can hit a homerun off of an MLB pitcher once.. but how will he fare at the end of the season? Traders don't predict stock prices, traders predict the outcome over hundreds of trades. People chat me asking what TO do rather than what NOT to do. You don't learn labor intensive jobs or how to fly a plane by what to do.. you learn what NOT to do to stay alive. That's all I have. Once you have a trading plan underway and you're executing it, you don't have much time when your hobbies are cheap but I still do respond to chats/messages. I do get asked from a previous post when I'll build a website and to answer that: I'm learning how to build a site on rainy days. Can't put a definitive date on it. I will say that its coming, if you don't give up on this business in the next year or so, you'll see it. What I plan on putting on there:
RiskReward Calculators
Position size Calculators
EV Calculator
Dictionary with examples
I just don't want some generic WordPress site. I want my website to be stellar and a great resource for aspiring traders. Something I didn't have learning this business. I want it to be something I'd consider a staple in a trader's resources. Perhaps one day it will be referenced on this sub frequently. FAQ:
"How do you prepare for a trading day?" I get behind the computer about 20 minutes before the bell. Reason being: "If you study long. You'll study wrong". If the chart isn't grabbing my attention and gets me excited, then I flick to the next ticker. I don't even know the companies I trade half the time nor do I care about a news report some journalist wrote. Also there is no magic news outlet that lets you know about "Major events that affect stock prices". If there was, I wouldn't be here because we're all subscribed to the same edge nor would I be trading my style.
"What would you go back to tell yourself?" Get more data. Save a little more, your hairline and sleep schedule will thank you. Take only perfect trades and don't feel forced to trade. There will be days you don't touch an order ticket. And days where you are busy and have tunnel vision. Next thing you know its time to shut it down for the day.
"Books?" - I try to humble myself when answering this but off the cuff, they're all mediocre. Andrew Aziz's was ok, definitely get it, it's only a few bucks on Kindle. Just don't expect it to give you strategies BUT it will give you ideas. If you're brand new, it is good as it will teach you the common vernacular of a day trader. Mark Douglas was interesting but his YouTube seminar recordings are much better. No book, Facebook group, YouTube channel is going to be the end all be all perfect strategy. Expect losses. Don't be a one hitter quitter after suffering a few tiny losses/paper cuts. Stick to it. Most books will help you familiarize yourself with the common vocabulary amongst traders and will hint ideas. It's your job to formulate the strategy and template for research.
"What is your background?" I was a logistics planner for a major oilfield services company. Later I then became a data/buyer analyst so yes, data analytics/research was a 2nd language for me entering trading. I did have that upper hand and did shave off months if not years for me.
"What is a normal day for you?" I'm always done trading after 10:30AM Central. I will hold onto a trade until right before the bell if it hasn't hit either target or StopLoss by the time I leave the house but it is absolutely closed in entirety by 2:55PM Central. After I trade, I enjoy the day. No I'm not riding around in my Lambos posting IG/Snapchat (I have neither) stories of my profits with my private jet waiting on a runway trying to sell an $7 eBook or a $100 membership (HINT HINT). I grill/cook, read, workout, ride my motorcycle, attack my other sources of income (small businesses I'm building), hit the driving range, shoot guns, etc. I live in Texas. Life is cheap and fun here.
"How did you discover your strategy?" I bought TradeIdeas premium, went through all of their computerized backtesting patterns, tested them. Then did what I mentioned earlier... Tried to find correlations in metrics. It distilled the trades to a strict criteria and here I am. I post on average 4-5 tickers on my watchlist. 7 max. I do not like spreading my attention thin across multiple tickers. I do not recommend buying TradeIdeas, it does have lots of bugs.
"What did you do/How did you get started?" Was a data analyst, was good at research and applied it to trading. My incentive was, "I could have made more money trading rather than sitting in 2+ hours of roundtrip traffic and 9 hours in an office. The data is there. Everybody sees the same charts all over the world. There are ways to make this possible"
"What is your % return?"(Not a fun question since a trading account is not an index or investment account. Intraday traders do not measure performance in %) I trade to make money AND pay myself, so my equity curve will look like a small loss or small gain after I pay myself. % return? I measure my account's performance in Sharpe Ratio and Risk Units. My Sharpe Ratio is ~1.85. While I yield roughly .8 - 1 R per trading day. Some weeks I make 10R. Some weeks I lose 2R. Yeah one week I might make $2,500. But the next week I might lose $300. The following week my strategy will yield $0 and the last week I might make $1,000. Some weeks suck. Some weeks are great. But overall. Just shy of 1R per trading day. Some days I'm super busy taking trade after trade. Some days I'll shut it down after 5 minutes without even filling out an order ticket. Some days I won't even see the open because there is no edge for me.. Keywords... "For me".
"Is enough to start trading?" Depends on where you live. Are you restricted to PDT? If not then how much are you obligated to expenses? I live in Texas. Things are cheap here. If you live in NYC or The Bay Area your expenses will be astronomical compared to mine. A $30,000 account is totally doable for a single Texan with low monthly expenses. Now if you're in California or New York? I'm sure you'll fall below 25k if you have 1 bad month. Also depends on if you have other sources of income or a full/part time job. I encourage every trader and aspiring trader to have multiple sources of income, don't rely solely on trading. Not just for the sake of mitigating pressure but also for sanity. If you have a family to provide for, I don't know what that's like, you never know when Little Johnny is going to randomly pick up Trombone lessons for a school program/play while little Suzie needs transmission work in her car because a simple solenoid went out. $1,700 later.
"Why do you need so many monitors?"I use 3 for trading. The 4th is for music. The other 2 are useless while trading. That's for trading though. When I made the decision to go full time, I knew I was about to go off the chain with research. And sifting between spreadsheets, a platform to see multiple timeframes for a pattern to backtest. My attention span is short, I'll lose my train of thought before I open the other tab to input data. But the main reason was for research. It's such a time saver and is a headache repellant when doing research while everything is laid out in front of you. Now that I have a system. I'll most likely be treating myself to 2 ultrawides for Christmas.
As always, thank you to everybody who takes time out to message me and letting me know some people read these and show appreciation. I would say, "Good luck" but there is no luck in trading. Just statistics. Remember that! In conclusion: Yes. Full time trading is possible, depending where you live/monthly expenses and obligations. You're more likely to become a profitable trader than a professional athlete. There is a level of uncertainty each day, perhaps each week, doubtful each month, and definitely not each year. If I ever want a raise, I just consult my business plan and financials, then decide if I can handle it mentally. If you have medical issues, get a part time job for the benefits. If you're healthy, just be careful. All the best! -CJT2013

Orr Group Industry Report: Significant Changes, old version based on what users were saying was happening (basically a user survey). New report from scratch, includes original data but also Character Sheet usage. Captures about 85-86% of all games. Still need to find ways to capture custom sheets, and they are also looking at additional features for the report, such as HOW people are playing (what features they use from the Roll20 site like music, dynamic lighting, etc.). Also trying to solve chicken/egg question (what games do people play, and how much is it impacted by official Roll20 support and products such as 5e DND and Pathfinder) of support of games, so they can track usage based on release of new product, official licenses, etc.
New Help Desk - roll20.net/help - All policies in one place, feature info from Wiki moving over (not complete), easily searched, support tickets.
Roll20 Con Oct 5-6 - more info in September.
Chat question: Pathfinder 2e questions: Discussion about how much fun the devs are having in their 2e games. Matchmaking low, not a lot of games searching. Filter between 1e and 2e is available since last tuesday for matchmaking.
Chat question: 3D Dice miss-match to displayed roll - they don’t have the correct developer on to answer this, Trivia says the system has to roll all the dice even when the roll template presents different info. Math and presentation are tied together, not seperate like in a casino game.
Layer Up update? They are working to improve the architecture underneath this process, so they do not have a release date for this update (also effects Fog of War and other graphic components). This is a major architecture update instead of a patch.
Legality of using marketplace content to run paid games on Roll20? Paid GM on Roll20, it works the same as if you paid someone in real life. If you paid someone in real life and went to their house to play the game, it isn’t distribution to use their minis and maps and so forth - that is not distribution. And Roll20 doesn’t consider that distribution on their platform.
Blades in the Dark Character Sheet - maintained by creator of game, and it was re-classified because it was under community created instead of By Publisher (publisher supported sheet). If you are playing it, you just need to re-add the sheet to your game. This is technically an upgrade for the sheet.
Pathfinder 2e upcoming release support? Can’t guarantee every release because there are a LOT that are fast and regular, every month multiple releases. They will do their best to keep up with the releases that will help the most people.
Chat question: Search function of marketplace doesn’t use assets name? It does, it just uses pack names more highly weighted. This is new functionality and they will keep tweaking it in. First three tags on an individual item are the only tags used in the search, so if you are a creator with lots of tags contact Roll20. Seemed like there was more info being discussed in the chat with Drespar, and that devs will take a look at this more.
Chat question: User ratings in marketplace for verified purchasers? Internal discussion, worried about abuse, but they do understand people would like reviews of packs and products.
StarfindePathfinder 2e Charactermancer When? Starfinder delayed due to personnel issues, Cassie is hiring for developers to add more resources to the sheet team. Should come out this year. PF2 should be early 2020. Charactermancer are intense builds with lots of code, so take a lot of time/effort to create. Drag & Drop coming before charactermancer.
Why is development so slow? How do you plan to keep up with competing software at this rate? They push updates at least once a week, new product releases are very regular, it has been 8 months in 2019. In that time they have released: animations, AFoW revision (granted it had issues, but was a major update), Jukebox functionality, Marketplace Update (and behind the scenes infrastructure upgrades to support it), Token Bars, Player Avatars, Revised Chat Archive, sendping API update, Paizo Account Sync. Also behind the scenes updates: payment system updates, Marketplace Creator submission process, Marketplace Redemption Codes. We stay competitive by listening to our users, we are agile (always becoming more so), many things start as bug fix and then grow into bigger concerns due to user feedback, and are constantly developing to respond to both user needs and market needs. QA is now in place, not always the case, and they are hiring a second QA engineer. They are a platform, so can’t keep up with all character sheets. Development may take longer to implement a feature, but that isn’t because they aren’t aware, but more about technical challenges with the platform. The question should really be how do competing software intend to keep up with Roll20? There is a lot behind the scenes of rehashing behind the scenes that is foundational. It may not seem like much to users, but it is huge for the developers.Mobile App is being rewritten, lots of work, but it is still in the rebuilding foundational stages so nothing interesting to see. Reworking the foundation is important to growth in the future.
How many employees does Roll20 have? 30-31 and growing. Actively hiring and recruiting for several positions, and will keep growing into the future.
Timeline/ETA to fix animation tokens to freeze when imgsrc set by api? In backlog of bug reports to fix. They are also looking to understand better ways for bugs to be reported.
API suggestions. Frustration about threshold - API discussion now has a much lower threshold on the forum. Special tag for Character Sheet and API suggestions so they don’t auto close.
Return of the Runelords adventure path 2nd part (1e)? They doubled the production team, 4 new people. Return 2 and 3 will be out this year, 4-6 in 2020.
One Grung Above and Tortle Package - no because they are DMs Guild, and those relationships are complicated. Wayfinder Guide to Eberron (older book) is also DMs Guild, and has no plans to release.
SCAG and Eberron? Eberron: Rising from the Last War (new book) is day 1. SCAG, OotA, DMs Guide, they want to get out as soon as possible, but no specific date.
AoE systems and spell templates built in? API and marketplace templates cover this need. Drawing tool improvements are on road map, but down the road.
Any new RPG compendiums coming soon? Some cool stuff to be announced before end of the year, no official timelines or specific info.
Music - old jukebox? Fanburst is gone, we put in search filters and upload capability for your own audio files, and we’ve done what we can for now. If you have specific ideas post to suggestion to forums.
LFG tool has updates on road map, but not in next quarter.
Age of Ashes PF 2e - first part released before end of year.
What is the toughest part of maintaining the site and why? Keeping up with changing demands of users, shear amount of users ratio to amount of employees, scaling to please 4 million+ users, lots of legacy systems that have to be updated to scale, we don’t have enough time to play games with our co-workers. Keeping communities and users up to date has also been a challenge. Licensing has limited resources and would love to work with all publishers, but have to prioritize.
Chat Question: Custom compendium? Still internal discussions due to copyright and content. They want to do it for homebrew, but have to solve the bigger issues.
Chat Question: Dragon of Icespire Peak after Target exclusivity - September 3
Chat Question: Jukebox - any copyright issues thus far? None so far with music companies. They built it out in collaboration with their lawyers, and they have not had complaints - they feel confident in their solution.
Chat Question: Prices different on Roll20 and Fantasy Grounds - every platform sets its own prices, Roll20 feels their prices reflect the value of time and value put in to creating the products
Chat Question: General and Game specific forums - Roll20 forums are focused on the platform, organize the Roll20 game on the forum, but if you want to talk about a specific game system use the publisher forum or other online place.
Pets - Eric has a dog, has to wake it up.
User question: Questions from devs for users? what do you want, and put it in the suggestions forum!
Eric brings his adorable dog (timecode 1 hr 05 min)
Plan to do roundtables every other month or so. Might shift format in future roundtables.
Hi guys, Im new in this company and trying to make an script for their entry process. There are employees in several different cities and countries. It works fine. Its adding them to ad and office 365 with a menu system. But my boss wants it tidier. So I want a question that asks them if they are a consultant or employee and then lead it to a different menu based of the option the location. We copy the properties from templates. The templates are named like "newyork.consultant" "newyork.employee". I dont know how to do that and at the same time define the path. Here is the menu part of the script. I then define the $city part and put the information thats needed. Would be greateful for any help! Thanks.

Transcript of Jed's Telegram visit today about Decent bet 2.0 changes
Jed came into the Telegram today so I saved some of the Content for people who may have questions about the new Dbet 2.0 changes.
DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:08] I will be scrolling through looking to address some questions that have been asked. If you have a question feel free to post it in case I miss it. User, [10.08.18 03:10] I think there’s some curiosity to how house backing will work game by game. Is the sportsbook all one house that anyone can opt in to? Same with casino and table games? What about individual sports matches? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:17] [In reply to User] The sportsbook is not one house, you can create a sportsbook and provide staking where any one can bet any game against your staking and you can set the max bet or you can publish specific games you would like to take action on more of a p2p wager. User, [10.08.18 03:13] Also curious to how we can get verifiable results on the more unusual user-created wagers that can be created. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:19] [In reply to User] For these odd types of bets we will use either an agreed upon 3rd party as the "referee" and we are looking into Oracles that can are trusted 3rd party community members that verify results. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:14] [In reply to User] The way the minimum staking amount for a game will work will be based on the max bet and therefore max payout so with this structure you'll have enough staked to have an extended "bankroll". A single game will not necessarily make less than the casino as a whole as each game has different RTP. If you were staking a single game with a lower RTP and a higher house edge it is very likely you would make more than the casino as a whole. If you want to diversify across multiple games to have more balanced staking you can, you can break it up across multiple tables of the same game you can diversify it however you would like. User, [10.08.18 03:21] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] So in this case we can't just allocate a % to general DBET sportsbook. We'd each need to create our own sportsbooks and decide what we want to offer and set our limits etc.? User, [10.08.18 03:25] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] Let me know if this is correct- if I want to back a particular sports event, say the super bowl, it will be me and only me who backs the bets for my own house? Naturally for a big game lots of people are going to want to participate- and as a result will there may be thousands of unique houses all trying to take the same bets? Sorry trying to get my head around the new system. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:26] [In reply to User] There will be a general "skin" of a sportsbook with everything loaded and ready to go for you that you can use and set a staking amount for or you can customize only offering specific leagues or sports or games. User, [10.08.18 03:28] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] Then it will essentially be thousands of individual sportsbooks within the system and it would be up to me to drive traffic to my own book or hope someone comes to mine out of the list? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:29] [In reply to User] Correct and there should be thousands of people looking to make bets on a game like this. Remember each house will only take so much action so as bets are made houses will start to become unavailable and less and less options for each person. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:30] [In reply to User] That is correct. And you can offer lines that are enticing, rewards programs that are enticing you can set it up however you would like. Keep in mind our goal is to have tens of thousands over time, how many houses and DBETs will be staking at that point and how many will be needed. User, [10.08.18 03:33] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] Okay, then next up would be how that would look, how books would be prioritized, etc. What's the appeal to the masses in regards to sports when they can simply go to another site and bet without having to sort through thousands of houses looking for the best odds etc. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:34] There will be simple ways to search for lines and available houses. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:34] Users will see important info with a quick search seeing which lines are available for that game, what the min and max bets are, what the available staking of house is etc User, [10.08.18 03:35] K got it. I get that this is necessary to avoid the security label, but is there a way to avoid that kind of redundancy on the potentially thousands of houses for the same match and to automatically distribute between houses? Example- hypothetically even though technically there may be thousands of redundant houses offering the same odds, couldn’t there be a way to split the bets automatically between them? Like if there’s 1,000 houses takin bets on a particular game, and someone bets 10,000, could there be a contract that splits that to 10 per house and still be legal? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:38] [In reply to User] Andrew this is a very interesting thought and I will look into it. I am not sure of the technical requirements or legal/ regulatory concerns but it is again a very interestign thought and I will explore it more. If possible maybe people could have the option of going into this diversified model or operating independantly which could be a good feature to offer. Thanks! DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:43] [In reply to User] You can just take our fully built out sportsbook, stake it and set limits put 20% of your staking behind it and split up the other 80% over other games DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:46] LAToken listing is huge. Not sure if you are aware but Cryptopia is 88 currently in 24 exchange trading volume, Kucoin is 57 and LAToken is 49. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:46] This would have never happened without the rebrand. User [10.08.18 03:48] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] I think this is the biggest struggle most of us have right now. One backer per house. So if I stake in the general sports book, how is that automatically allocated to me? Because it sounds like the general pool of the original idea. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:53] [In reply to User] So the fully built out sportsbook is essentially just a skin of a sportsbook but has everyting loaded for you so you do not have to do anything if you do not wish to. You then stake the sportsbook you created with the skin and now you can take bets from people. User, [10.08.18 03:54] I'm guessing the team will release some "how to" videos of this for further clarification as well. Ease of use is important. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:54] [In reply to User] Absolutely we will! DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 03:54] May be you have friends family etc that bet on sports you can drive them all there and we will be driving a marketing machine prodcuing as much user acquisition as we can to generate players for everyone. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:01] [In reply to User] We are still doing everything we can to build the userbase as large as possible. At the beginning things may be slow, I think we all expected that with the old or new model, but once the users start coming in we are going to need 100's of tables and shortly after 1000's for each game. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:02] How many DBET investors are there currently if every one of them created a table for every game there still would not be that many compared to a halfway decent user base User, [10.08.18 04:04] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] Sure, but as small as it may have been you could lock up your coins and be assured of a % of the profit no matter how big or small your bag was. Now those with larger bags can eat up all the action in sports leaving the smaller houses with less chances at action and profit. I'm mostly speaking on the sports end here. I understand slots and tables it's a little different as your staking a session 1v1 customers but for sports it's much different. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:06] [In reply to User] The average gambler is a pretty small gambler and those with smaller bags will attract them which is the majority and as they should because they should not put their entire staking bag at risk taking larger bets. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:06] But let me look into the idea that came up earlier where rather than pooling the funds we split up the bets. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:07] That may create an option for people to be in a pool of bet distribution so the ones that are concerned with it can go that route. User, [10.08.18 04:07] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] What drives a smaller sports bettor to my house over someone with a larger bag? As long as they have smaller limits and can keep taking 100 or 1000s of those smaller bets I have no advantage DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:09] Many of the larger staked houses may have a min bet above the users preferred bet amount minimizing the proportion of big houses to small houses that are available to them DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:10] I'm not saying they will be drawn to you but the min and max bet amounts will impact what is available to the smaller bettors. User, [10.08.18 04:11] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] But not likely as that would make them lose money. That's why every casino in Vegas has like $5 min bet on sports as well as every bookie I've met. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:11] [In reply to User] Sure, I know many bookies that would never touch a $5 bet, it's not worth their time. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:13] I do not think vacant tables is going to be an issue once the userbase has a chance to grow somewhat. When you look at how many DBET holders there are and how many will stake the house you're not talking about 10's of thousands of people User, [10.08.18 04:13] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] But essentially every casino in Vegas will. And they have to handle every aspect of the transaction where as if your staking the software there is no added stress or time wasted by lower limits DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:13] Absolutely correct DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:14] I believe we will see houses with more than a $5 minimum bet. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:14]That is all I am saying. User [10.08.18 04:14] So there's really no conceivable reason why someone staking DBET would have a low minimum as they don't have to handle any part of the transaction correct? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:20] I love the revolutionary concept of it all and I believe the space will change in this direction plus getting us out of the security conversations was a must. We need more liquidity to ever get to where we all want to go, from a trading standpoint, user adoption standpoint across the board it is so important. We already have a new listing and more in the works@ User, [10.08.18 04:50] How will this affect the 5% lottery draw every 1/4? User, [10.08.18 04:51] Also how will the affect Decent-C for giving money back? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:52] Doug lottery will be same as before 5% of all profits will go into the lottery and people will be able to earn up to 5 tickets based on their staking. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:52] And this will not affect our plans or goals with Decent-C at all either. The plan is exactly as it has always been. User, [10.08.18 04:55] If multiple people are backing a slot machine, how is the selection of backer done for a session? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 04:59] [In reply to User] BB the user will choose which slot machine they want to play based on available staked machines that are not in use by anyone else and offer the bet limits they want. User, [10.08.18 05:01] Okay let's be real I can't stay away. DBET please share with us how the new model effects poker if you can. In poker there is generally no stake just rake. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:03] You're funny and I totally understand. So poker is a ways out on our radar right now. It is not a very profitable game and is challenging technically to do on the blockchain, there is a lot to figure out in order to decentralize it, dealing, RNG, banker, with our model rake as you mentioned, etc. Doug User [10.08.18 05:04] DBET are you able to elaborate on the nodes at all? Someone above mentioned nodes. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:07] [In reply to User] There will be a rewards program that incentivizes people to lock up tokens similar to how a node works for adding value to the platform in a number of different ways. User, [10.08.18 05:05] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] But if both you, me and Doug are staking machine, who would be selected? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:08] [In reply to User We would be staking different machines potentially in different rooms so it would depend on which machine the user picked. User, [10.08.18 05:09] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] Are you saying that the three of us can't stake the same machine? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:10] Correct DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:10] That was one of the 2 reasons the old model was being classified as a security User, [10.08.18 05:12] But, do you mean machine as in - I enter a digital casino and see 20 slot machines or a machine as in I enter the casino and see 1 slot machine that runs various sessions DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:14] Yes you could see multiple of the same machine DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:16] At least intitally, we are exploring ideas and may do some A/ B testing and see which UX is most popular DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:21] Correct you would get profits from the specific machine you backed. Over the same dollar spend the machines would return the same but the motivators were putting the control more into the users hands and mostly to get us out of the security conversartion as we will need more liquidity in the future than what being a security can provide. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:21] Correct regardless of denomination DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:24] When we started the company our lawyers told us the token was not a security but the house shares were but they were not the same thing and there were other companies Edgeless for example that was giving back 40% I believe of profits and were listed on Bittrex which was a US regulated exchange that supposedly could not list securities. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:26] Crypto regulation evolved and everyone is tightening up in regards to securities. Bittrex got audited in November I believe of last year, Cryptopia was audited recently, exchnages going into Malta have to be audited before they can operate that they are not listing securities. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:26] The landscape changed and we had to adapt. User, [10.08.18 05:28] [In reply to DBET Jedidiah] I like it. So with enough Dbets we can back some # of slots, some # of sports books, etc., if we want to. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:29] Yes you could you could have some nickel slots some dollar slots some craps some roulette some blackjack and diversify your staking DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:30] I think it will be fun but again I'm from Vegas so I love casinos User, [10.08.18 05:34] Just got caught up...I am curious. When will we as designers see more template files like those for the slot machine? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:37] [In reply to User] We are hyper focused on getting mainnet slots released right now but should be shortly after that most likely sportsbook would be next. User, [10.08.18 05:46] If I were to create a custom skin, would it then be available for everyone else to use? Or would there be licensing etc happening? How would this also affect custom games later down the line? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 05:48] [In reply to User] You would license it to a room and then that room would be able to have it available to all the users in that room User, [10.08.18 05:59] Can you give us a quick break down on mass advertising plans? To bring huge numbers in? DBET DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 06:09] Sure a broad overview, we have a huge network of celebrities from poker pros to nba stars to djs to actors and actresses so utilizing that network where appropriate, targeted advertising into jurisdictions available to us in Latin America, Europe and Asia where futbol leagues will feature or brand on televised events, working diretcly with futbol clubs for sponsoships, working with the sportsbook rating forums and review sites to build a solid reputation in the traditional online casino world, targeted Google PPC and Facebook advertising, more speaking opportunites for me in both blockchain/ crypto and gaming conferences, starting associations that will not only work with regulators but will educate the masses as a group as well, adspace in appropriate publications, I could probably think of a few more but that is a nice quick breakdown of the mass approach we will take. User, [10.08.18 06:41] [In reply to User] that was one of my biggest concerns with the old system…the invariable dump that would come at the end of every quarter User, [10.08.18 06:59] Quick question regarding profits. Is the model still built at 95% profit to holder and 5% to lottery? How will DBET keep the lights on if they don’t have a percent take? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 07:01] We have always said we will never keep more than 10% of gross profit to cover our costs and will cover the rest with our operating capital User, [10.08.18 07:59] there's no more staking in the house. Basically you can stake in all the games instead. User, [10.08.18 08:22] basically, you can stake all games if u want, which is same as staking in the house. DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 08:32] you nominate which games you would like to stake User, [10.08.18 08:33] So perhaps we can have a function to stake in all the games except the peer to peer ones? DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 08:34] The challenge is if we pool the funds together than we become a security again User, [10.08.18 08:43] Select all, copy ;) DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 08:43] Yes we can look at something simple like a select all for sure DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 08:40] no once we get into pooling things we are a security User, [10.08.18 08:56] yea, I recall the minimum you can stake is dictated by the min/max bet for each game DBET Jedidiah, [10.08.18 08:56] yes minimum staking requirements will be based on a low risk max bet max win ratio
