  1. He may sound familiar because there is so much rudeness here on the forums that it probably reminds you of 90% of the people that post. :(

  5. The minute you start to think "The market is going to..." STOP trading until that thought leaves.. Was up and tossed it all in the final 45 minutes.. What I did is obvious.. I say it again, short-term trading is not for me but struggling to trade per plan..

    Going back to SIM again until I can trade the plan... If anyone cares to notice if I am sticking to plan, there should be either 4 point stop outs, 1/3, or 2/3 daily volatility profits. Nothing else..

  7. What happened late yesterday was a something that has not happened to me in a while, and that is I drop the ball and gave back most of my profits at the end. Had 360 but gave it back. Won't happend again, or at least not for a very long time lol. I consider myself with enough experience but even sometimes shit hits the fan.

  8. How will you assure that it will not happen again? Stopping trading after a certain amount of profit? Stop trading after a certain amount of loss or losing trades? I often see my morning wins given back in the pm also.

  9. You don't change anything based on rare events as long as there is an account loss limit in place..
