I would take profits before and then let the spikes fill up my orders during. Afterwards, It would be as if nothing happened except increased account balance. Gambling on the event is no use. They'd knock out your stops anyway. But in the end the ...

The hardest part is not having enough money. It takes money to make money. If you start with peanuts, you'll end up with peanuts. It is true compounding will eventually turn your peanuts into something worthwhile. But by then you could be dead from ...
What do you find hardest about trading?
- BeginnerJoe replied Nov 3, 2013
Not quite. Real traders build inventory when the price is favourable. The inventory is released for a profit when the situation allows. Most so called "traders", are not traders. They are gamblers. They place bets casino style: putting the chips ...
