Quality Not Quantity

I see a lot of struggling traders make the same mistake – over trading. Day trading isn’t about fitting the most trades you can into the shortest time possible. It’s about picking the best trades, and sitting on the sidelines the rest of the time. Day trading is actually a pretty boring activity. Most of the two hours I spend trading is spent waiting for a good trade. It’s easy to get tempted into taking setups that aren’t quite right, just to have something to do!...

Sometimes I Wonder…

Today was the sort of day that made me wonder why so many people insist on only [tag-tec]day trading[/tag-tec] futures. Don’t get me wrong, there are lots of good things about them. But why do some folk limit themselves to just the ES, NQ, Russell, or whatever is in fashion this month? This morning must have been really dull for those futures traders. None of the ‘minis’ moved much. Of course anyone trading stocks had plenty to choose from. We have plenty to choose from every...
