Just put in the time, a lot of hard work, and I never once thought I was smarter than the market. I have mentioned @dbphoneix here a few times in recent days because another thread here at ET asked folks about trading mentors. I can't tell you how important his advice was to me to take the time to observe the market, and from those observations to develop and test hypotheses, and to journal my trades daily. He taught me that one does not learn to trade by seeking to to learn to trade. One learns to trade by studying and understanding the market. Most folks who want to trade do not have that perspective. Most just want answers, and have never taken the time to hear and understand the questions first.
Sorry for bombarding this place with my trades today. On most days, I only post on the final hour or so. But for some reason, I got the itchy fingers today and started early. Anyway, hope you all had a killer day as well. In the meantime, I need to run to the bank. Can you hear these coins clinking? LOL
Actually, I helped build NQ’s time machine. The reason why he is sharing his calls with us is that he wants us to be happy in our last days!
@NQ you mentioned having probs and stats calculated, where do you get your data from? Manual entry into excel or data import from some source. PS I started with the Measured move first because the other books will take time to arrive (Switzerland) and I am 24/7 before the charts and have started taking notes besides trading my main strat which is already working out
