    is good trading boring?

    Steady trading is like steady 5 handicap golfers. Who would complain shooting around par every single round? But it just isn't the same with out a single birdie thru 18holes. :D

    Will you be taking time off this summer?

    I am thinking of taking a little holiday down south in August, and I was just wondering how many of the elite traders here do take breaks in summer. I know a lot of my peers choose not to, but for me, taking a couple weeks off every summer always gives me a positive boost. What do you guys...

    Question for YM (mini-dow) traders.

    I am a ES / NQ trader, and recently gave ym a try. Tested it with 5 daily round-trips, and noticed that it's a great thin scalping instrument. Getting 5 - 6 pts wasn't a hard thing when you trade it as a lagger from the ES. If you keep stops relatively tight enough, the winning ratio can be...

    ES or NQ when starting out?

    ES's spillages for starters might be overwhelming. NQ is the way

    Monthly trading expenses.

    Early exits are killing me.

    This is becoming such interesting thread. Thumbs up for all contributions made. I would like to share one simple method that I have successfully used years ago when I was trading equities, on how to be more indifferent on loses and letting winners carry on.
