Chood, It's not rocket science. Just design your trading to fit your lifestyle and trade in a way that 99% of people are not and you will be fine.
Chood ; "I promise to be well behaved in reply to one "valid reason" stated in less than 25 words. I may even be persuaded." Same goes for me, please, get me out of the dark Jackjones ; "Only other reason might be that you couldn't cut a loss and decided it might be a way to prove yourself right? " That's what I think too
Hedging is a good option I am not a pro trader but one can use to make some profit out of it !!!! use your props properly for good pips. I hope you will get my point.
Hedging is about managing a trade. Psychological Putting the Automatic "ON"...for those that do not understand how to program automation into API's...or Front Ends... Thats all it is..All hedge trades can be substituted with directional trades...and vice versa...Hedging is more expensive as it wastes spread, but it puts the "reactive" trading mangement "ON"...and defines the term...listen to the market...
