One of the reasons I like Position Trading

Quote from cashmoney69:

For your position trades, do any of you use indicators, or just price action?

indicators coupled with price

B1S2,

At the risk of being too general in questioning, what would you recommend concerning getting started position trading? Having travelled a daytrading path, I can imagine you've travelled your own path and have a lot to offer those of us in my position, just beginning the search for a position trading methodology.

Thank you, amodies

Been trading 25 and a half years. I would tell you that I use very low leverage because I relate my trades to total liquid net worth and not the amount in trading accounts. In fact, most of the time, I am below 1 to 1 as I scale in to trades. As far as capitalization, while I appreciate the question, I would like to refrain from a response to that and believe that the answer to leverage is key to success in small or large accounts. Good to hear from you Frank!

Price, MACD (especially Histogram), RSI and Bollinger Bands. I have been experimenting with CCI, but not done with research yet.

Below 1 to 1? What do you mean?
