    If many more traders lose than win (can we agree to this?), money ultimately flows from the many to the few. Therefore the crowd is usually wrong and they tend to have the most conviction at the turning points, from my own observations. And I've been in that crowd many times..... Have you...

    I keep cutting my winners

    Yeah was just thinking the same thing. We're locking onto the much longer waves in the market by doing this. Position profit just doubled this morning. My trading development over the years has taken these stages: 1. Obsessing over an accurate entry (which I did find, eventually, and even...

    perfect entries or (nearly) zero drawdown trades, how to get it ?
