Quote from IanMacQuaide:
I'd imagine there's at least a couple thousand traders out there who've never heard of ET, and don't care about this magical 95% number. They just trade when they see their setups and disregard all the BS they get from friends and family like "Oh, you must have lost a lot of money lately!?", and, "What do you do when the Mkt goes down 5 Billion points in a day?" And my favorite from a Police Officer buddy, "Careful you don't get into using insider info!". (where the hell I'd ever get any to begin with is a mystery to me, and I enjoy my freedoms very much, thank you!)
I'm trading Opening Range Pivots on the ES, and doing allright. I'm in SIM till I get 5 more straight winning days, then it's "LIVE".
I was trying to trade the YM, but it kept blasting thru pivots and stopping me out. I started watching the ES, and I'm still amazed every day how "orderly" it is.
Trading for a living can be done.
Jhershierra, disregard everything but that which makes sense for you.
