STOP LOSSES!!
You hit the nail right on the button.

Replaice emotion with disciplined stop loss action and you will overwhelmingly increase your chances of making profitable trades.

Sometimes it is like fishing...you cast and cast many times until the strikes bring in the big ones!

That's great if you're not trading Nasdaq stocks. Most brokerages don't allow stop loss orders on Nasdaqs, only listed and options. The problem is that most of the money from interday swings happens in the Nasdaq.
