dabum,

I've discovered if any my swing trades (2 - 5 day period) are down after purchasing and can't get back up to my buy point after a day or so, I sell em. Poor entry..

My entry on BOL was near the HOD on Friday and never recovered. When it couldn't show strength this morning after the open, it was time to move on.

My trading log shows this is right thing for me to do. Besides, wanted the money for energy.

Michael

Since you're going at this a bit differently this year, would you consider posting some of these intraday trades?

I know you want to avoid anything more time consuming, but maybe there's a way just to give basic setups and follow up later with very brief recaps, or something?

Since the principles work in any time frame, intraday might be very educational....with the disclaimer that this sort of thing is only for the very nimble, requires good use of stops, etc.

Thanks for considering.
