Hey Jim, if it weren't for the "them's", then there wouldn't be any
"us's". Perhaps you have your "stop" placed too close. The overwhelming
response is that the sharing you and Guy are posting is what
traders/investors want. How many others have the confidence level in their
methodology that they will share their trades when they place
them......before the results are known?
I observed a bottoming pattern in ANN, and on 3/9 I entered a position. I
added to the position on 3/14, and again today 3/15.
Yesterday's low was not violated this morning on WMT. After WMT broke out
of the opening hour range, I entered. Added to the position at 49 2/16.
Anyone else notice any patterns that they have found profitable and would
like to share?
Until one learns to take a loss (and not take it personally) then one will
not learn to win.
