Quote from shortie:
the readers are still in shock there has only been one teeny loser out of ~30 trades
They would be more in shock if and when I would blow up the account! Furthermore, I have not yet seen what the losing trades might lead to---What if the losing trades are big (because of not getting out soon enough for instance) to reverse things?
I thank you for the compliments though.
I am starting to think that trading is more complicated than if viewed just from the difficult of designing entry/exit points, because of the trader in the loop and the capital.
There a number of traps, such as the trader could get in before the models, not take some trades after issuance, take profits earlier, etc.
In relation to capital, if one trades with his own capital, if it is too little, it may not be worth the effort, but if it is enough emotions might kick in and disturb the whole thing.
I am then wondering whether trading is rather more for the already very rich, or for those who might want to try some big return with a little piece of money such as $100.
I thank I can see why banks/etc can make money in this but not the average trader. It is not skills, but the other things.
