if u find what you really need to stay in business, you will see how simple it really is...for instance..find 2 lines that cross and tell you good stuff.... for emotional control a high percentage system is best...losses create fear.....we all lose sometimes, but best for them to be occasional, not often, even if we keep them small..you can't build confidence if you have loser stamped on your forehead every day's end because you believe losses are good......losses happen....that is not good...keep them few and far between imho......... ..the human mind is the real enemy, not other traders...takes a few years to get there......be willing to give the effort that most won't...j j internet stuff right? LOL...
FYI, I finally heard from him today. Turns out his family is visiting, so he decided to take some time off from the markets. Sounded like he'll probably be back trading in a few weeks. I was very glad to hear from him, because I was getting concerned by his sudden absence. As previously posted, I'll not be trading for the next three weeks. I expect to return home Friday September 21st and start trading again on Monday September 24th. Good trading!
Enjoy the trip. We will be waiting here on ES for you, hopefully with bigger accounts and psychologically intact.
The longer term trades are definitely less stressful and no doubt smartest approach for most....Jack Schwager says those who compare day trading and position trading... 1/2 of daytraders will go to position.....very few individuals make it emini intraday trading....that is make a living doing it.....smart move....
