If your serious id be real happy to share my trading style with you.. I really would- it would be an honor to get others opinions. Been a long road of loses for me, but that has changed and although I still have bad weeks, instead of getting the once a month 'major lose' I was famous for, I now get that once a month homerun that is 3x greater than all my loses for the month.. Its emotions that kill me.. Over trading.. getting upset when it dosnt go my way and rushing right back in and stopping out again.. but all my loses are pre-determined and rarely exceed my max. pain point. Let me know- like I said, id be happy to share anything I know.. God knows this thread/Tom/SI each day do so much for me- it would be a pleasure. ... I actually only lose a small amount on NXTV today.. Stopped out, put a buy stop at 42 1/16 and nailed it for a nice gain.. (hadda brag since it worked out) Buy stops have increased my profits this year like you wouldnt believe.. THIS is something we should discuss because I rarely see people posting message saying 'I have a buy stop in on QCOM at 63'.. why not? its THE easiest way to trade a stock in my opinion.. a quick trade that is.. in and out..
