    have to be patient i'm canceling the 1407 order and keep the 1433, 1446 we can easily hit 1375 or 1350 and still rally all the back to 1400 -at that point the 1400 entry is a much safer entry than 1407 would be now the fun part of the selloff will be in july/august anyway

    how did Szeven go from making 0/day to 5k/day in just 3 years?

    no definately not that......swift doesn't teach sct........but szeven hit the ground running..........profitably from day 1........almost 0 learning curve.........he never had the kind of drawdown most traders go thru initially.......and its all documented in the trader p/l thread.
