A swing trader doesn't have much control over his trades because of gap-ups and gap-downs. An amateur day trader enjoys some level of control in his trades because of zero outside influence. A pro day trader must know how to avoid stop loss hits.
Did i talked about avoiding stop loss 7 years ago? I don't remember that. I didn't had that level of skill those days. Can you share screenshot?
I shall create a thread now to discuss about avoiding stop loss. It will be a great challenge yet i am excited

wtf. You claim your stops never hit and now you are looking to challenge yourself to never hit a stop loss. Wanna see some original thinking? Set the stop on your index trades to be zero and cover at a penny. this is easy.
It is not about trading without a stoploss but to have a liberal stop loss and then trading in such a way that the stop loss won't hit
