I keep coming back to this:
"There are old traders and there are bold traders, but there are no old bold
traders."
Short term trading over the last several years (about six years) has made me
rely on system less and trading more (i.e. price). That does not mean I
don't use charting software like Tradestation and don't have my on ideas
about indicators. It seems I have coded hundreds (at least dozens) of ideas
over the years but keep coming back to price.
I'm new to this list and hope we talk more about trading ideas and less
about each other. I enjoy good conversation about indicators, charts and
even systems.
Regards, Walter Hooker
