    What if iPhone is built in the US due to charging high tariff for imports

    Over-trading versus Fear of Loss

    In game theory the frequency of waging bets is very important, same applies to trading. If you look at a winning day than it may seem good to keep trading - leaning on wins with size as opposed to betting more often is what many pros do why limiting their trades to 1-3 max each day. This keeps...

    Serious question

    Although I agree with the premise of not following what the masses do like trying to day trade tiny moves for example I think the novice crowd always doubts a strong market and is always trying to short the market where pros wait for the market to first make a down leg than they will short the...

    Buffet made $7,000,000,000 in gains since Trump won election

    The market was already in a strong bull market for the last 8 years. Buffet most love Obama for creating the most perfect upward trending market in history. The real test is after 1 year, that is often when big market reversals happen if the new president does not produce good results.

    Can a spread widen to 200 pips?

    The range on the AUDCAD was 618 PIPs - there is no way the spread widened to one third of the entire day range. I know of a trader on Saxo last week that got a horrible fill several hundred PIPs outside of the price range - they were able to resolve what happened and put the money back into...

    What is important in a trading platform?

    I have charts that auto scroll for a specified amount of time, meaning it goes through my lists of symbols and display the charts for each one - this saves me a ton of time, ensures I don't miss anything, and allows me to do everything from on monitor. The other thing I have is a way to be...

    Swing Trading > Day-trading.

    I day traded for years back in the day, like so many I switched to swing and never looked back, even a lot of the top day traders of the 90's are now swing trading.

    No, your ability to exit the trade, or not, is the only possible edge on any entry. The past does not equal the future. _____________________________________________________________________________ True, my number one job is taking loses! Entry & exit signals have little to do with long term...

    If you enter a high-probability trade and then the charts movement goes to 50/50, what do you do?

    The most incredible traders that have made vast fortunes and thrived for decades in the markets boiled down the meat of how they do it into something very simple: If price does not move in the anticipated direction and without decent velocity for that particular market - they simply exit right...
