TRO,
Believe me that I know quite a lot about psychology. I also mastered discipline although in other fields and not stocks trading, yet. I also read Mental Fitness… that U brought to us and couple of books provided by nikoschopen on rapidshare... I’m aware of necessity to strictly follow money management but I lack system to follow. Some 70:30 win/loss ratio would be nice :o)))
I tried to paper trade “your” 60 days slope >0 in combination with rsi2 or bottom linear regression line and similar approaches. I somehow didn’t feel comfortable so I gave it up.
I feel comfortable with full stochastic and unfinished double-bottom. I want to build it by myself to understand each letter in it.
By execution skills I was referring to going from higher time frame (I expect my trades to last 2-5 days) to lower time-frames (1 hour / 30min / 15min charts) to make a good entry point. To master this approach I need to follow more than 1 stock, U agree. Otherwise I would make more pocket money by tailoring t-shirts :o))
Can U explain in more detail your so many times repeated "It's not what U trade but how U trade"?
Regards
r.

"Can U explain in more detail your so many times repeated "It's not what U trade but how U trade"?"
I sold HEC today for a profit.
I bought it last week.
Why did I buy it?
FLAT BOTTOM.
Today, HEC went up enough so I could sell 900 of every 1,000 shares I bought and extract my original stake.
I now have 100 free shares of HEC for every 1,000 I bought.
I can sit back at wait for HEC to really take off.
THAT'S HOW I TRADE.
I had free shares of ATML from $4.03.
Today when ATML hit $5.25, I entered a $.05 trailing stop. I got stopped out at $5.21. PROFIT IN THE BAG.
THAT'S HOW I TRADE.
AAPL. You can get juice out of AAPL everyday, just FADE THE GAP and pay attention to candle color. THAT'S HOW I TRADE AAPL.
FOREX... I waited for the FOMC news today, I had my buy and short screens pre-loaded. Finger on the button. When EURUSD hit 1.2850, I was in. I was out in 26 seconds at 1.2886. That's a 36% return! THAT'S HOW I TRADE.
So, you see, it's not what I trade, but how I trade it.
MAY ALL YOUR FILLS BE COMPLETE.

Anyone have "The Logical Trader" by Mark B. Fisher? I heard the ACD breakout system was pretty good.

An excellent (free) programmers editor called ConTEXT is available from
http://www.context.cx/

I use it to write StockFetcher code. I don't know how to create a stockfetcher highlighter in this editor. Maybe somebody from this forum can do it for rest of us. I use Foxpro higherlighter which highlight most of the stockfetcher keywords and syntax.
