Maybe you need to change your trading rules. Up $1000 for the day and your rules say hold to the end of the day ?? I would have been out of that position before noon. I have been Day Trading for 14 years however not for a living , been in the markets since 1986. The only hard fast rule I have is not to let a small loss turn into a big loss , and not to let a profit turn into a loss.

then what for?

it's simple statistics,backed by numerous tests. i can change it off course,but i know the outcome already-once you change it-it will be exact opposite. the software records everything thru the day. the moment you close it(assuming that 1K is 'enough')-PnL will shoot up vertically to 2K or more. been there,done that.

I run a business from home so I can trade on the side . In other words I don't have the type of pressure you have to make a living day trading.

Also calories are an irrelevant unit for human diet. I could eat 6,000 calories of meat, dairy and vegetables and be thinner than someone who eats 2,000 calories of Wheat Thins and works out more. Those caloric restriction mouse diet studies increased life span likely due to the lowered insulin activity.

uhm noo.... that doesnt sound right. calories is still calories

the reason keto diets work is because they suppress hunger. So you feel full at 1500 calories instead of 2000 calories because of the lack of carbohydrates.

so keto diet is basically a form of fasting without the hunger feeling...
