If you could go back in time to when you were a new trader

Nice answer.

 

A clear mind and excellent physical health: maintain and guard these closely. That would be my advice, especially the mind. Most people forgo the opportunity to learn without realizing it. It is easy to spot the losers here by their sacred cows. The psychopaths are the ones who encourage them. But who cares, really. Money comes and goes. It is the time spent gaining or losing that is gone forever. Trading is not life or death. Enjoy the game or find something else to do.

 

all methodologies work with sensible risk control.

 

True. If you are going to trade might as well accept it head on.

Well said.

 

So you would advocate a random entry method, as long as one carefully manages risk??

 

you people are sociopaths.

 

You people are not very precise. That will kill you as a trader. You said ALL methodologies could work as long as risk was properly managed. To me this implies that risk management is the deciding factor in the success of any system.

Sorry, I just asked a question. No need to flip out.

 

you people is "all aggregations agreed upon"

 

Has anyone actually ever tried that?

Just for curiosity? Haha

 

whats a random entry ?

throwing darts ?

flipping coins ?

educated guess ?

hardcore analyzed , throughly planned and executed ?
