Sep. 10, 2013

One of the most crucial aspects of trading I have learned over the last 8 years is knowing when “to sit on my hands.” Trading isn’t about taking as many positions as possible, but rather it’s about taking high probability trades. Probability plays a big role in trading. You can have the best risk:reward ratio […]

Sep. 04, 2013

Being my hours on Friday favored the later morning hours, I decided to go back to some stock trading like I did on Monday with stockpair.com. I decided to stick with trading only Apple (AAPL), as McDonalds (MCD) wasn’t providing anything favorable to trade set-ups. Also, I opted for their 10-minute expiries today instead of […]
