Quick comment for jorgez "emotional 100% intraday" .......100% incorrect.....i once thought same until i learned to read candles and the chart......the discretionary gut trades are why those traders fail, they are gut and emotion traders...panic traders....the winners use mechanical systems that are event based, not gut panic trading.......find the re-occurring event that produce points in u r favor and trade them as they occur all day everyday, just some days they produce big points some small .....can get close to 100% correct with a few years of studying events and patterns instead of volume s/r news/ and other waste of time intraday stuff....goodbye again

PS: The less u see the less u think.....

gracias cod,

By your own acknowledgment you are so far ahead of me, and yet oddly, I came to be where I am via your school of thinking.

There is no doubt that a discretionary Trader must play to the top of his game every day (try imagining pro golf and tennis) and that is why I prefer a mix of discretion and recognizable setups.

There are setups that occur several times everyday without fail.
But that does not excuse me from playing to the top of my game every single day.

I gather from your considered comments that all those who disagree with your current state of thought are clearly incorrect (wrong) in your mind.

Clearly we are two very different people .. vive la différence
