Leave me out inf000. I am just here for the entertainment. ET is the best free show in town.

I will bring this back up because it is the ONLY thing that a good Trader is focused upon. I suppose by their very natures, Traders or either Position, Swing or near Scalpers/ Scalpers and therefore it is most important to realise who you are and then stay with it. Dont try another style...

Passing a law making laziness illegal would be a good start. I would do it myself, but I feel tired just thinking about it.

Why dont you ask Wave, after all is his post that drew your comment.

Believe it or not JJ, the guy is actually trying to do you a big favour.

You have nailed it Thunderdog. There are only two states for a Trader. Either your actions are dominated by fear or you are beyond fear.

Does it really matter. What matters is that you stay on the right side of the markey and just let it take you where it goes. The side effects of all this market tampering ... well that is another matter. But so long as you remain on the right side of your trades and stay debt free then you...

Well I am with you Osorico. No matter what traders do, they have to pass through the T&S gate in order to enter the arena and I prefer to watch the action here. (obviously with a filter)

Some but not all. I am interested to hear from those who choose to expand this thread.

Can you expand on these comments saxon22.

A Poster mentioned in passing the other day that things would be different if the DOM was 10 deep. "There is a reason the retail trader only sees 5 levels deep on market depth, what if you could see 10. Ahh, then you might catch on to the game that is being played." Since I am not a...

What do you think will happen after the bombs fall?

Run that by me again Daal and this time no using the word 'might' and please resist the notion of using 'if' or anything similar. In other words, I am interested in your opinion not your guess.

I could not understand your 2nd question. For a minute I thought you asked 'what set-ups do you use?...what indicators, what moving averages.'

I quite agree with you KT. Some observations hilojack. Firstly, now you have a winning indicator, you are 20% into your journey of making a fortune. Congratulations. Secondly, TM's and patents are as good as your ability to protect them. You will neeed good Attorneys in India, China...

The best of luck to you JJ, I am certain that it will all come together for you. ' Think big and take baby steps' has served me well. One observation I have, which I would share if I may, is that you all seem to talk in terms of handles (points) and yet the market moves in tics. Many times...

You are quite right TP, going with the flow, handled properly should earn you more than you give back and can easily make you a respectible living. I should know. The danger in taking the next step which involves a paridigm shift in thinking, is that you cannot find your way back if indeed...

JJ We are in two different places. I know where you are because I spent years there, toing and froing, firstly with profitability and then with over funded accounts once I was consistently on the right side of the ledger,etc etc All I am saying is that we need to open our minds through our...

You are a thinking man TP.

Position Sizing?? Here is a thought to ponder on. The ES lunges from level to level with remarkable consistency at times. It may appear to be random, but it is not. These moves will net a Trader 3-12 tics per trade with a very low risk of taking a loss. Better still, make that a very...
