    The Learning Curve

    I don't know if it applies to anyone else, but I learned the most when I took a break from trading. At times when I feel stagnant, i'll take a week or two off. No markets, no charts, sometimes I won't even turn my computer on. When I decide to come back to trading my ideas are fresh and...

    My answer to your question ... Are there any good trading styles out there ... is no. The good trading style for you is actually in there. I mean your trading style is inside of you. It's based on your philosophy, money, risk tolerance, and your comfort level. The most effective trading...

    How much backtesting?

    At least 100. Also check out the streaks, i mean the winner/losers in a row. Personally, a trading system with 25 losers in a row would scare me.

    Making a living on ES/NQ 5m reversals/flags.

    Some of us make a living fading those patterns. Everybody and their mother (btw ... happy mother's day) knows about bull/bear flags, wedges, pennants, double bottoms/tops but guess what; those patterns don't always work. In fact, the times that they don't work offer the greatest profits...

    Trader's Block

    Another idea may be for you to read through some the money management threads to get some idea of how much money it takes to trade. Many people who are new to trading don't realize how much money it takes to trade. Anybody who thinks that all you need to be a futures trader is $2000 is going...

    AspenGraphic Users ?

    The salesman that I talk to on the phone is obviously not a trader, and had no reference for comparison. I mentioned that I used a well known charting package and he hadn't even heard of it. Just a salesman, that's all he was. Anyway, as I said before, there are some tools in the software...
