Good luck! It's taken me for 2 ''-3's'' so far on short trades today I'm back in again for 3rd time lucky! ps - you get my PM earlier?
I did not say it was hard but it's definitely not easy. Why do you swing from an extreme to an extreme? There is a lot of room between those two. It's not about trusting your methods, markets can and will change dramatically rendering at least some of your methods useless. For the record, I've been profitable fairly consistently for quite a long time now but it's far from easy as things change and often changed rapidly. There are many contracts you can trade which have a lot of liquidity, unless your account is 8 figures and up. If it is, you're right and I'm wrong. From my experience, 1 hour would be easier, less noise and patterns play out as they should. I'm curious how much do you return percentage wise on average, just to make sure we are talking about the same level of returns. If I could make 3-4 times as much trading short time-frames, I'd do it without a doubt. After some years I wouldn't need to be around the screen at all, makes perfect sense to me, obviously you don't agree.
