No I was able to achieve high returns only when using a stop loss. For example at the end of Feb I was up 160% for the month. Almost half of my trades in Feb ended in a stop loss but I also had some big wins. Then one day I decided to not take my stop and blew up.
You can do it. If you said you had an account with IB, I would say you had no chance at all, because IB software is shit!!!
There ya go, now you have the the admiration of someone who actually thinks your broker determines your trading success.
actually thought of you this morning...did you get stopped out?...was there a big loss?...I honestly hope you did not get slammed by the huge rally today...please update...we really want to see you achieve your goal...
"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing." MACBETH
Anyone can turn $822 into $210,400 by July 18, 2008. But turning $822 into $210,432 by that date simply defies comprehension.
wrong. if you have enough people out there flipping coins, somebody will appear who can flip it tails 1000x in a row. but that means nothing.
