I only wish someone would have taking the time to put together a list like that when I was starting out. There is probably 10-15 books worth of knowledge in those links.

As for trading....

I have only had two losing day since I started trading futures last month and one loss was the result of a typing error. Presently I am averaging around 4-7 trades a day which seems to be a good level for now. I just sit back and wait for the perfect set-up to arise and swoop in. I only take on trades with a very nice risk/reward ratio and use very tight stops (less than 3 pts). I am getting stopped out of around 30% of the trades but the ones I am right on really pay the bills (and a little extra). I am adding another 19" monitor to the pile tomorrow because I am running out of screen space for the charts and indicators. I am building a shelf so I can stack the monitors on top of each other. I think I have really reach the geek threshold on this latest move.

Best Regards
KEITH
