"Fair and balance" at work !!
This is why I believe that psychology is "the" edge. Mental toughness is so important. It has to be developed, nurtured all the time, in any...
I do not see a difference between a loss of 20% in one day or a loss of 20% in 6 months. It is a drawdown, in money terms. It is what to do after,...
Choad, buying dips, yes, but also selling the strength. In this current market, it seems to be working pretty well. To be very bearish or very...
Agree with Rito. The only thing we can (relatively) control is how much money we accept to risk on every trade. Then everything can happen,...
I believe that as all other support/resistance levels, Fibonaci levels are points where something CAN happen. But, as there is no Holy Grail, it...

Glad to hear that, that you are not trading your emotions. Never worked for me.
Never too good to be emotional about a stock, CrazyKarl. GM might fail, or may not, regardless what you think or hope happens.
I am with you Surdo, I have two brokers, two Internet connections, 3 computers, and one 30-minute supply power. Trading is difficult enough to...
I am always struggling with this question regarding "Black box" trading systems: why would anyone make public a very successful system, if not...
Happy customer of Trade Station here. However it is true that their customer service is slow but I think I called them once in one year (about the...
Bonjour, on parle francais maintenant. Depuis Salt Lake City, ou j'habite, je salue tous mes collegues francophones. Comment traduit-on trader...
Yes somebody went on the wrong side of the trade and is blaming the unfamous "newbies" for being stopped out, I guess. I am not sure that it was...
