    All longs look bad, all shorts look bad.

    Unless you're in early and swinging.

    Tight Risk control becomes near on impossible, that's my issue, +$100 today, $60 of which was accidental clicking the buy button while moving windows around.

    I had a guy in Singapore PM me about this. He is at a prop firm that insisted he be flat at the end of each day. With the noise and short term ebb and flow that is inherent with market action on a granular scale he was having a very difficult time staying with the market bias that his modeling and market analysis confirmed. His complaint was that his preference was to trade smaller size and swing trade over a period of days instead of scalping the larger size intraday. Very frustrating for him.
