Quote from cool 2334:
With all due respect to all, I exactly know how hard it is to day-trade leveraged instruments and what complexities can be involved! No one has ever proven to be consistently profitable.
I'll be looking for a job soon and in the mean time I will give trading a last chance. I will trade futures on a long-term perspective; I'll get in and open a position only if I have a big and clear target in mind, following daily patterns and waves, and relying on big but analytically reasonable stops. There will be no daytrading anymore!
The idea behind this last attempt is that trading should be an easy business that makes easy money possible; otherwise, I'd not go after money that would turn my life upside down.
If I can not make consistent and easy money this way, I'll step out of this thing for the rest of my life.
