    There is no such thing as a "no doubter" among professional traders. That's why we have rules and disciplines. "No Doubters" are for charlatans and would be gurus. But marketsurfer leaving did leave a void for such a genius.

    How Long Are Your Trades

    From seconds in high volatility up to a couple of hours in very low volatility but I am a singles hitter lacking the temperament to sit through a lot of back fill and retrace.
