I suppose I should clarify that I watch for intra-day moves and scalp those. Typically there is always a scalp, but either its overpriced/reverses too fast. One of the things I am trying to improve is finding a good scalp that doesnt reverse too easily
You are all about the "plan". I don't think it's bad advice. Can you provide examples of plans that have worked for you?
My job isn't demanding anymore than demanding my presence for at least 8 working hours. I'll have to take a look at futures. Which platform do you use?
So basically futures and forex. Can you elaborate on how you trade Korean tickers? Do you mean Korean stocks? I didn't know that Americans could trade Korean exchanges.
Yes, I'm all about the plan, since without one you can't succeed. Examples? If You Can Draw A Straight Line Son of If You Can Draw A Straight Line Bride of If You Can Draw A Straight Line Ghost of If You Can Draw A Straight Line And an excellent and ongoing journal that isn't mine: Making Of A Method
This is exactly my style. But I'm lacking confidence in it because of my failures and becaus all I hear is buy low/sell high. My experience has been the same as you have seen. Some days the buying of highs goes even higher beyond belief and that's where I have made most of the money. However I lose it eventually b/c I try doing that with similar plays to have those plays reverse on me. I haven't been able to quantify this buy when high move because I don't know how to discern which one will run and which one will turn. Do you have link to his posts?
I wasn't try to fake humility. I just wasn't clear in my writing. I should've said, "I don't want to discredit your response until I know what you were trying to say exactly". In any case, I appreciate your response and opinion regarding the right mindset. Thanks.
