  2. lol, I didn't mean literally in a trade every sec of every day.

    Ever hear of "scared" money? Well that's me. My acct is small and I have to protect it. That means occasionally taking a few pips here and there, rather than swinging high and wide all the time. Many times I will simply exit a trade and reverse a position right away if I expect a nice retrace.

    Experienced traders (like you) may soon tire of me and my frenetic trading pace.
