I agree that MM is mostly common sense, however it applies equally 
to long-term, medium-term and short-term trading.  The duration of 
trading should make no difference.  If one is trading with the 
direction of the current trend, then the setup is a low risk setup.  
If one is able to identify low risk setups then one can survive 
anything the market throws at you, even overnight gaps, market 
volatility and discretionary moves.  Short-term profits without 
condisdering the long-term risk leads to long-term ruin...

"One must measure what one might gain in the short run (Reward) by 
what one might lose in the long run (Risk)."  Why are long-term 
interest rates higher than the short-term interest rates?  What 
would happen if it is the other way?  Think about it.  When one 
understands the significance of these, trading instead of being 
gambling, becomes investing for the long-run...
