Not speaking for Volente, per se,but your observation is misguided. You will note that targets are held by traders are subject to change of markets' dynamics... After 'becoming a born again profit taker' to run FREE on the rest of the trade is a great relief...the trader is in the box seat . "Fear of losing interferes..." may well be a personal hang up and if you continue to trade that way you will definitely lose... Good luck with your trading... NiN
First off you are the last person that should be giving advice considering your last 2 ES trades lost 15 points. Second both of your trades were in the green at one time, had you not been greedy or even scaled out half and moved your stop you would have made money on both instead of losing 15 points. Third, if I was still holding for 92 target right now I would only be up less than 4 points on the trade right now with those tdayboyz stealing my profit. You keep swinging for the fences and striking out, I will keep batting .800 and printing money consistently.
"consistently" I couldn't agree more. The key to big profit is trading size and the key to trading size is "consistency"
