What is your average daily point take on the Dow Mini and what's your typical strategy (scalping, longer term day trading, swing trading...)?
If I can do "0" points, that would be great day. And I employ a variety of methods, scalping, swing etc to take advantage of the market opportunity presented to me at the time.
i try to do around 10-30 but it really depends what the market offers on a given day. heck, one 30 pt gapfill trade gives you 30 pts right there. i use a set stop for each particular setup. one setup for example has a 5 pt stop. most have 10 pt stops some have bigger stops depends on the market structure, timeframe, setup, etc.
About 20 if I manage to enter only on signals. If I could learn to be more patient and let my winners run, it could go up over 40....
