Still looking for my strategy

Exactly. Most focus on the financial aspect of what trading can offer but ultimately money equals time. And if you're making a good living but spend 18hrs a day in front of your screen are you really wealthy or just rich? All you need is something that works consistently. Don't complicate it if that's what you have.

I believe that to be true. I went from day trading to swing trading, get pretty close to the same returns and spend way less time in front of a monitor.

My system is long only stocks with me sitting in cash when the market turns.

@deaddog I can so relate to it. I believe that it’s more about the quality of trades rather than the quantity of trades. When you don’t focus on the count, your focus automatically shifts to analysis and picking up on better trades. Additionally, if by increasing the number of trades you think you are increasing the number of opportunities, then you should also consider the increase in losses.
