I honestly dont see 20 trading opportunities on average on 5min chart with price action, maybe she's actually trading on the 1min chart? Can you post some chart on 5min that show so many entrys opportunities?
Your wit never ceases to amaze me. It has been humbling for me to have witnessed someone of your caliber who has selflessly helped others(including myself) with endless compassion, patience, and professionalism. Winston Churchill said it best: "We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." My dear... your life deserves to be full of joy and happiness for an eternity. God Bless you...... Jeff
NoDoji, If you are leaving for good, it will be a sad day for ET, although I`m sure you got your reasons. Along with your excellent breakdowns of price action, the absolutely most important thing I picked up from you and which really, really helped my trading, was the manual backtesting/trading of historical intraday charts, taking notes, learning and observing. I learned infintely more from that process in a short period of time than I did from months and months with simulator and live trading. I wish you continued success and the best of luck for the future! If you ever come to Norway, don`t be a stranger. Kind regards, Laissez Faire
That's it... that is the pure Holy Grail right there. Sit, watch, wait and have no opinion about the market UNTIL a proven price pattern setup confirms. Then and only then take action when trade-entry signal confirms. Enter trade, set initial stop, stand up and step back from the keyboard so you are not tempted to do something stupid from there. Busy yourself doing something non-market related while the trade works... minutes, hours or the next day later. Repeat that same simple process every day, let the law of large numbers create your edge from bigger wins than small losses. Ignore all else... it is collective, meaningless noise. The Holy Grail of trading
