    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    the point is..you can read and study all the information you want..but..unless you actually do it..and keep doing it until you get it right..you will never do it correctly! i can strip the outer core and inner core with just a pliers..no special striping tools required..no scoring of the...

    the newest good sockets have screw clamps but cheaper ones still just a screw.. the first thing an electrician is thought is that if putting a single cable in a socket..with no loop in loop out..then you bend the single core back on itself into a small double core state..then when you tighten...

    not answering directly..but you will often hear that.. "there is no such thing as luck" you will also hear things like.. "backtested with an 80% win rate" :) luck is "being in the right place..at the right time" but..if you don't know what to do when Mr Opportunity pops up..then..you might...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    a point worth considering ! if a handyman wires an electrical socket..he will strip back the insulation on the wires..more than likely scoring the copper conductor in the process..then..he will proceed to push the wires directly into the screw hole in the socket..and tighten the screw down too...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    another reason why the ES/MES offers adequate opportunities is because of the amount of speculative trades completed each day.. i was tracking the OI for ES futures..but stopped..as no real need..but if my memory serves me correct..and i would not expect to see any real change since i last...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    i must say..i am a little bit surprised that no one has asked certain questions in relation to timing of entries and exits..as it really is key.. the ES/ MES offers some great trading opportunities from 09:30 to 10:30.. sometimes a little later..but on average the first 1hr is adequate...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    it is based on experience..big winners..big losers..small winners..no losers.. while it is possible to get big winners and small losers..i think most tend to let losers run longer than winners..as..it is human nature due to fear..hope..wishing..praying..etc a good approach is too always only...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    i agree that lost opportunity is lost money..and staying in a bad trade is not a good idea..but..the trade is only bad if you lose more than you had initially intended to lose..for..every trade must be taken as a loser..only way..otherwise you might as well give it up..as it will only be a...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    well..trading from the phone has worked out well for me so far..but i do prefer the pc..obviously! if you know why you just had a loser..then that is fine..as next time you might be able to do something about it..but..if you don't know why..then how can you do anything about it the next time!
