1. I always think I need to risk 2-4 ES points... my objective is somewhere around "8 points, minimum"... usually doesn't happen that way, but I think I can envision that on the charts before initiating the position. Also, sometime I see the potential for "50 ES points" and try to play a bias around that. 2. I have no fixed profit targets, other than the approaching S/R.
Depends where we are in the charts... too variable to generalize. However, overnight holds are definitely part of the plan at least sometimes.
What has been your approximate % winning trades in 2007, and how does it compare with previous years?
