Another way to help keep risk down is to trade multiple time frames. Meaning, let's say you chose to trade SPY. You could have one position open...
LOL some of those days I didn't want to be awake. I felt it was my duty though, considering what I was trying to do. Other days that's just when...
Great! I would love to hear about your experiences in the markets. Thank you, Banker
