what ever time frame you use..... you should be able to understand and appreciate the actions of both the shorter time frame player than you and the longer term players than you. if not you will whipsawed by the shorter and bludgeoned by the longer
Good effort in trying to raise the level of discussion. But your expectation of the quality of participation is too high. It takes the utmost in rationality to learn to trade correctly. You can see where these people who reveal themselves took an unproductive path and got stuck. Most people who start out learning to trade take various paths to get to the same place. That place is called Hobby Town. There's no point getting upset with its occupants for not meeting a certain standard. Just be friendly and enjoy your visit.
tradingismybusiness, you can simply stop posting and stop making a clown's ass out of yourself. You attacking members because they told you they trade a certain way, and now you getting mad when someone telling you sit your silly ass down. Perhaps, you are the loser virus. And you have really bad comprehension as the man explained to you damn near 50 times how he trades, and you still talking about averaging in to losers or winners, and how its bad. What is wrong with you man? Go sit your ass down man and stop all the messing around.
Intuitively it just makes sense to make sure entry is right otherwise you start off behind the 8 ball and it is hard to make silk purse out of a saw's ear. Imagine you are a farmer, you start planting your seeds in the middle of winter, the grounds are frozen, nothing grows but you expect a bumper crop? You need to pick the right time/entry to plant. Imagine your trade, going long SPY at the ATH Feb peak vs going long FB on March 16th @ $140? I am the odd man out. I think learn how to pick the correct entry is very important for us amateur retails to learn how to trade. After you learn entry, then learn all the others like trade management, etc. Maybe that is why I am still an amateur. I focus on entry.
From the few posts tradingismybusiness has made it sounds like he knows a thing or two about the markets... Not sure why you would want him to shut up.
Why do people try to find a good entry and a good exit point for their trades? Because they don’t believe that market timing does not exist. Because they don’t believe that random entries and exits give better results then trying to find good entries or exits. Because they don’t believe that trading is the same as playing poker. Because they don’t believe that the markets move randomly. If you don’t agree with that, you should just throw darts to see where to enter or exit. You should close all charts, remove all trading programs and just need a BUY and SELL button. Or you can even let the computer decide randomly what to do. Reality however is that everybody makes an effort to enter or exit as good as possible, which confirms they believe it matters. The fact that they are not successful is because they don't have the skills they need. Result is that they just use a fake reason after the disillusion to protect their own ego. So reread the postings and see who has the trading skills needed, and who has problems with his ego.
