Too many retail traders think about the money, dollar here make a dollar there, never see anything about risk? They seem to be in constant dreamland, they lack knowledge of knowing the probabilities of their patterns to know what the past outcomes were on large enough of data. They think of how to get in or why they should get in first. And yet they never learned the basics of charting-and those who say they can do in six months, tells me they only have six months of learning some charting. The didn't break down charts to smaller amounts of data, down to each bar, and yes 100s of patterns based on one bar and charting to the left of one bar, and yes, much of it is much work to get next to none of "edge", but some of it does when combined with more bars after current bar.
I enjoy when traders post charts, often thinking why did they get in there? Too often they don't have enough of bars to left to see whole picture or have not done any study of distances of swings. My main concern is can I reduce losing percentages lower and not go with most profitable as they usually have ragged drawdowns, if I am losing less, can increase size and continue to average down on any timeframe.
