About an issue brought forward by some.
Time frame

intraday vs short term vs long term positions
In my mind there is no such things, if you refer my previous postings.
There is however only daylight and overnight (carry) positionings.
daylight is to mean that the position is actively managed. There is no distinction between that in relations to the sun or the moon, ie time of day.
A daylight trade could last for days, so long as you are actively dancing. It all depends on your stamina.
overnight is to mean for positions exposed when the trader is not actively managing. this positions can be for days weeks or months, where suits. These are really trend rides.
If you try to exercise rescues in overnight positions,
All I can say is GOOD LUCK.
You will need it very much, as you are not so different from gambling with calculated risk, nevertheless gambling. And normally, it would come with a pre-concieved view of where the markets are heading and what the longer trends should be.
If the short trend fails, then you are positioning for the long trend and should be right. If you are positioned against the long trend then actually you will tell yourself that you are are actually positioned for the even bigger picture. If all else fails , then the market is illogical and manipulated by the biggest boys.
A predictive stance of using ABC, XYZ indicators and divergence, convergence and crossings of lines and indicators.
All the mentioned lines and indicators would be of help to you in such an endeavor.
Further newer indicators , like hat and rabbits, my magic bullet, or when satan is crossingyouranus, this and that , as well as whatever you might like to call it, can help you hold to your position exposure and composure. Also you may like to call it the Bigger Dance Steps, The Big Boys dance, Dancing with the big Bands or Sleep dancing to hold that it is in line with what fti taught.
In fact it is all self deception, but nevertheless, it is comfortable.
In all truthfulness all attempts to analyse have stopped except that it feels like "the dance". I mean, look, we have all ANALYSED and the market must come in our favour. Its just noise for now, so lets "BITE THE BULLET" like fti taught, and hang on for dear life, there's HOPE still, to come out shining.
Yes we like to trade short term positions, if thats not working , we can convert them to long term positions. and if thats no good still, we are actually positioned for the next millennium move. Look I've lots of $$. Anyways what goes up must come down and vice versa.
Then there comes along a nick's leeson and a kerveel and dang that fti, for teaching us how to average positions.
Actually the term is professionally known as "dollar cost averaging" and fund managers who are losing customers monies always uses this to rationalise their losses.
Isn't this what fti's teaching?
fti: HUH, really?? so rigid?? think and read carefully.
”Satan crossing youranus” indicator?
, better research that

I am unfamiliar with the expression. Literally it says strange insect(s) perceive Taoist techniques from appearance (miss the essence). But I am not sure if strange insect is a specie of ancient mythological tale, or if what I think as “Taoist” is actually the name of a novel. One more riddle we have to research! eh?

AOW chapter 7 Manouvering
11. We may take it then that an army without its baggage-train is lost; without provisions it is lost; without bases of supply it is lost.
My army was lost on May 18, the first day I decided to spy on both the bear and bull camp. I negelected to change default trade size when I switched account and only realized my mistake when I ran out of ammunition at skew level 7 (13 troops, I had 233 troops at start). This was a huge down day and not the time to be bull E/U without adequate funds. I was forced to damage control at the bottom (the undercapitalized is always punished thus) to avoid margin call and lost 42% of demo account
. High skew is very dangerous without sufficient troops, let this be a lesson to me.
Except for this disaster spying in the bull camp has fetched small profits everyday. Not spying today, pooped after long morning campaign.
AOW chapter 3 Attack by Stratagem
8. It is the rule in war, if our forces are ten to the enemy's one, to surround him; if five to one, to attack him; if twice as numerous, to divide our army into two.
9. If equally matched, we can offer battle; if slightly inferior in numbers, we can avoid the enemy; if quite unequal in every way, we can flee from him.
10. Hence, though an obstinate fight may be made by a small force, in the end it must be captured by the larger force.

Hi Baifu
There are many... under water. And some of them had hundreds %+.... but they failed in long term. Maybe we must be "poisoned first by this"...
No i start again from the beggining. But with every failure, menthality strenghten. But be carefull, good, that you have demo. I have lost some bucks already... Regards
You are not the only one, I remember reading the thread and noticing this common theme: first euphoria of never losing any more, then tsunami hits. As fti said this is powerful stuff but it can also kill you. That's also why I ponder so much over how to put myself "beyond defeat".
You have the will
best of luck.Rgs,
