Average # of trades per day

Depends on your style... Picking up quick scalp profits or losses will result in more trades.

 

I guess we should also characterize trades. If I were to break down my trades into actual ideas and not putting the positions on themselves it'd probably be more like 3-6. I usually scale in/out so actual trades from a trade log are more.

 

I average 30 trades...a month

 

That makes more sense, large money is only made on 1 or 2 DAY trades per DAY from my study...

 

You can even see it in the charts. Count everyday the big waves.
I average between 1.79 and about 3 trades a day for the last year. Depending on how the markets are.

 

15 or so

 

Thanks for proving my point. I fucked up but there were 2 WORTHWHILE trades today.

 

3 trades.
Still long from 2111.50 with 3 points stop at 2108.50.

Out was 2102.75 something went wrong when I wrote the price on the chart.

 

speaking of average traders per day, what is everyones YTD approx value of $ worth of trades total?

 

your point being? I' guessing it's that he (and most people) over-traded??
