Your an idiot !
I was simply bringing up a quote from Trader28,
which he used earlier in his thread which I thought
was wierd and quite funny.
It is people like you with your negative posts that ruin a decent thread like this one.
Your angry postings telegraph your negative returns as a trader.
Dont worry, one day you will be able to move out of your parents house, and save up enough to maybe even trade one lots again!

Hello:
I suggest you ignore my comments.
For the rest of the crowd, on my last comment I posted a reference to an article on "Stocks & Commodities". I was wrong. The article by Thomas Stridsman is published in the January issue of Active Trader. Sorry.
Snarly:
As regards stops, in my opinion what you (all) "need" is not a tight (or loose) stop, but a stop that is correct not only for the market you are trading, but for the local volatility. If you will go buy and read the Active Trader article, you will get some idea of how that can be done. One of the problems for newbies is that they get into a position and cannot hold through the drawdown because they are undercapitalized. This is the origin of the term "weak hand", and it refers largely to retail traders who cannot stay in position for very long, either because they cannot take the stress of watching market fluctuation or because they cannot "afford" to take a loss. It is something to think about.

Quote from traderdragon2:
Funny how every teenager on the internet likes to play psychologist and whine about negative attitudes being projections of negative returns.
Put down the psychology book son, and accept the fact that I move more money around the market each day than you could ever dream of, and make returns that will only exist in your imagination. Have a nice day junior. Say hi to mommy.
