I make (what I think) are gutsy calls, but my position sizing and exit strategies are conservative..
If I were more aggressive (larger position sizes, looser exits), I'd be steenkin rich..
I guess every trade is gutsy in some way...unless you are 100% no risk free money kinda guy...
I really love asking this question to people. You know why? Because it really answers a whole lot about where we are currently in the trading spectrum. Who am I as a trader? ..

I'm a very hard working cheesehead who was scared shitless that the profits on his shorts were going to evaporate in one five minute upmove today, but was able to deal with that fear and cover at the close.
Caveat: I'd be screwed if I wasn't working on a good team. I probably would have otherwise covered way too early.
