Stephan Thats excellent re: how you trade. Interesting, thanks.

You and I my friend are on exactly the same page.

Both good points. I was talking to my Chinese girlfrd how I feel no guilt making money today (and some people made BUNDLES). I am not taking money from those hurt in the attacks, and would not. I am taking money from other traders sitting in their homes in ButtFk, Iowa, or serving their bosses...

Very nice questions - and welcome to the site. Working backwards: I dont need feedback - I want money. When the feedback is neutral - I am fine. I sit. Though I want money. When the trade is going negative I am fine as my position size is set so risk to stop is constant, at a...

I agree with the statement above. How do you know you talked to this guy though? He mentions his girlfrd (not boyfrd). Anyway, whatever he is, some of his posts are very interesting and useful to read so I thank him for that whatever his motives are.

Great posts Pips. That simulation systems are better than rules based makes sense - the latter are too simplistic and not outcome focused.

Why do people live in the dark? I am very open minded - though Im not stupid and have been around the block a thousand times. I would never send money to someone, even a family member unless they had a serious situation. That doesnt mean you cant look at everything with an open mind. Some...

I agree with that - I believe a scam artist wouldnt have the brains to make all the very well written on-point posts he has, or the skill to mark up charts as he has, - though I dont get why he needs to do it financially.

Read all through his site and you will see he says he is an introvert - has no friends etc. He doesnt want to meet someone he doesnt know who wants "public" money. I think (and I understand) he gets a huge kick from information, as I do, and doesnt want or need face to face communication or...

I shorted at 439:)

One of the best posts ever. So true.

Good advice all - gracias.

Yes, impatience causes early close outs of both winners and losers. I am a short term trader in a long term trader's lifestyle setup! May find I have the same issue though if I leave job and daytrade. May still close out too early.

A bit like buddhist meditation - you let everything (like impatience) come up and fall away again while watching it in stillness, until things lose their conditioned affect on you.

Interesting thanks

EchoTrader Thanks - all over that - been trading for a while. It is more the boredom of waiting day to day for an exit signal in EOD trading that I am impatient with. If I was trading on 15minute charts I would want to trade on 3min charts. Impatient for feedback! Illiquid - yes - pain...

I have trouble waiting for trades to move once I am in them. I trade end of day - as day job - and can't wait 5-10 days for moves to occur. Too impatient. I guess this applies to daytrading also. How do you all manage your emotions and be patient with WAITING for hours (or days) while trades...

Steve I agree with what you said. It is very hard to trade well with an always in approach. I havent tried it with real money, but with simulators didnt do too well. I found it hard to be in when there wasnt an obvious probability edge on a trade. That might be a psychological issue, but...

Yeah, Steve, but if it starts to go against you with any momentum you reverse into it, thats the point.

I wasnt promoting him just stating my opinion. Secondly, the other guy you may be talking about that I think is good is dbphoenix or grob109. Both ARE good at trading from what I understand. If you dont like them thats ok. It is also ok if I think they seem to be good traders.
