Hey guys, market’s been tough and with recruiting winding down I’ve got more free time and want to learn active trading in individual US stocks around earnings volatility. I’ve been a long-term investor in ETFs, mutual funds and indexes, but now I’m looking at short-term plays.
I’m in a rough personal/professional spot right now, don’t know anything beyond basic buy/sell orders, and honestly I’m scared to pull the trigger. I’ve nowhere else to turn, so any help would mean a lot.
I’ll use a zero-commission non-bank broker with $2–5 K to start (happy to scale up over time). Any tips on:
- Entry plays around earnings?
- Good resources or screeners? I don't know much beyond the basics tbh
- Risk management: position sizing & stop-losses for a small account?
- Broker features beyond free trades to look for?
Thanks in advance—really appreciate any guidance.
