Quote from Buy1Sell2:
Folks, I am basically a turtle type trader with my own ideas about entries and exits. The main difference is that I am in trades much earlier than they were(are) as I don't only buy breakouts like they do. Typically if I am buying a breakout, I am already in with my initial salvo. Secondly, I also know that less trading generally nets more long term profits.
. However, if you are always trading in the direction of the longer trend, it is very very difficult to get whacked overnight, especially if not overextended. 
Edit: Not saying you can't make money daytrading, just indicating why my preference is longer term.

Like swingtrading stocks some;
I am basicly a turtle type trader also.
However I know the CME/CBOT knows more about risk than i or most traders;
so the idea of more margin /overnight IN ADDITION to &70,ooo risk per contract just doesnt appeal to me.
Agree generally more money can be made that way but drawdowns usually are more. So prefer to selectively daytrade ES.
So i am sure not a intraday scalper, LOL; hour candle charts...;
almost never enter a trade last hour [ best trends take time], but may exit in last few minutes. Besides i was born in 1955, drawndowns & cold weather arent quite as fun as it used to be. Right porgie???
That article where he is against scaling out , fine & good;
but him shooting for 10 points or 5 but especially 10 points in ES he gives up FREQUENTLY more profits than i would, he likes drawdowns more than me.

Take your time, take your time;
trends take time
