anything strategy involved in short sale whether they looks they can cancel each other or in reality it does, there are margin requirements for those short sale (wether the underlying or call or put). so I never use any strategy involved in short sale. i just plain vanilla to long, whether...

I do. plus I am a foolish short seller too. particularly when I get a loser, i want to make sure next trade is a winner, so i jump on the exact top (thought to be upside breakup) to buy, then wait til to the exact bottom, I get out, and reverse become a short seller, then painfully watch it...

never use stop loss in option. even in stocks, I do not trade stocks. only use stop loss to trade futures. in stocks, if you are investors, stop loss does not make any sense, even with intra-day, there are haltings/pendings, so stop loss does not make any sense. bad things happen then...

you are in the point. human brain learn things by association. if your setup does not work this tiime, next time you see a silimar setup, the brain will tell you this one does not work either, so you hesitate. in reality, every second is unique. even we have similar setup, but every time is...

happiness is inside you, not outside. if you look for it from outside, of course you will be disappointed. when I finished a beautiful trade (totally follow my plan: does not mean a winner), I felt happy. when I am looking for happiness from the face of my wife, if I did a beautiful...

that is why I believe trading is not psychology. but some non-professionals try thieir best to sell "you need a stay in the zone mindsets". actually whether you have good psychology or bad psychology, it does not matter. since market will not change because you have a good psych or bad...

when you heard the little voice whether from your inner side or others "be patient", while you are trading, that is a distraction. just ignore it. some people asked me in my church "what i am doing", I said I am trading futures, options and stocks. then they always gave me some "be...

before piles of money, everyone is vulnerable. some people said "love is blind", the same applies to money. so in trading, this is the Number one reason people frauded themseves. when they should cut loss, they stubborn hold;when they should not book profit, they are too scared to let the...

KMP is not a good short. it will go though 100+ easily. sxc and navr is no brain short candidate.

in the first place, if you stop trading, then everyone does not lose, so what is the 95%. so method one is: you quit, you automatically become the 5%. that is the easiest. what 95% losers do is: buy high and sell low, sell low and buy high. if you want to trade, and become the 5%, the method...

believe in God is good. that means you face the reality, not what you saw, not what felt, not what you touched ... those sensed information is always with some distorted "inner thinking". that is why the same market, different people get different things, even they see the same market...

congratulations, turkey flies! fading is very appealing. fading is a backward stratey, just in driving, if you want to reverse, you look at rear mirror. do not forget about trend following, that is a forward strategy, most profits from here, like in driving, we look ahead to drive to reach our...

hat off to you. do you think market is in your control? do you think market will realize your "bright smart idea"? the gravity law: some birds will never learn to fly again, just like the turkey. decades ago, even dyninosure can fly. wish you good luck, happy holiday.

could not watch it clearly. I think it is possible. actually even one cent catch, in a hour, how many cents you will catch, even in a 1minute bar, there is lots of "little" move, those moves add up, mean lot, plus large size, it multiplies into lot of money. you can do a test in your demo...

not exactly. whether day trading or swing trading, the princpincls are the same. in day trading, 99.99% needs pure technical guidance, you do not need know fundamentals. in swing trading, fundamentals can be applied, but to execute the idea, still the technicals. actually swing trading is...
