Re: [Technical-Investor] A word of caution

 

I studied, backtested, paper traded, created my own systems etc etc a zillion

times till ti occurrd to me how stupid I was looking for the holy grail. Its been
4 years and I have been trading one and only one custom setup using ADX,
ATR and MA. The thing I changed was get my money management in place
and go total mechanical. I dont enter a trade neither do I exit it till the setup
says so. Thats the holy grail. 

AP, you remember those days when everyday we used to figure a new setup
taht seemed to make the billions only to find it failed the very next day :-)

Cheers

Trading at all skill levels evokes emotions that generate great illusions.

Today's excitement won't move tomorrow's markets

Don't let that small voice of ego tell you that you have special talents.
