its not about any secrets. its about individual method/approach/understanding/risk tolerance. why else would anyone sell the stock when you are putting a buy order expecting the stock to go higher?
You have to know who is most likely taking the other side of your trade. At least with stocks you need to know where a daytrader and momentum players would take their profits. You need to know where a swing trader would most likely take his profits, and you need to know where a long term investor would take his profits. It makes your decisions easier on when to get in or out of a stock. With futures, price action is all you need to pay attenton to along with s/r.

Trading is easy once you know how. Like anything. Do the hard work yourself, like all successful traders have had to.

Trading is very simple and very difficult. Simple does not mean easy. Here is the Holly Grail: If F stands for the % of wins (the number of wins divided by the sum of wins and losses) then plot this: (1-F)/F on a chart with horizontal access of winning % and vertical access of Win/Loss Ratio. To be a successful trader you SIMPLY need to keep your trades above the line plotted above. You can use any method you want. You can even watch Cramer on CNBC and follow him. It does not matter. Just keep your trades above the line.
