I´m sorry if I bother you ES Trader, but I think you must require a little more respect.
I respect ES just fine. I respect you just fine. I even respect noobies. But that doesn't mean I have to waste my time on stupid questions from people who are too lazy to do their own homework. Maybe you do have this extra time, but I do not. Maybe you have the patience of Job and can suffer every fool that you meet, but I do not.
Even if he is the best trader in the world (obviously not), some people here are going to leave your thread. Good traders are humble, because forex has made them humble, so draw your conclusions.
This is a total myth. Forex makes no one humble. People are people, and they come in every possible shape and color. There are lazy people in Forex, and there are productive people in Forex, just as in every other industry in the world. Forex is just another industry. It is not special. It's just another type of business. Some people own bowling alleys, some people own car washes, some people serve food, and spme people trade spot currencies.
Anyway if after so long its best system is to enter trades based on daily histo and then close your eyes for 5-10 hours, any SL, any TP.......sooner or later, during these 5-10 hours, the market will reverse, ALWAYS, and then.....
These instructions were for ES only. He was scalping and over trading in a system that is designed to do the opposite, and I was giving him some basic guidance on how to break those bad habits. It was a test. I even said it was a test.
The exit is as important as the entry. As I said I have not finished yet to read all the thread but I think the entry is clear, not the exit.
I agree, but again, it was a test. A learning experience. A way to make ES break away from his bad habits. I was NOT suggesting this was some type of permanent system. Even so, I did give this instruction: No taking profit for at least 5 hours! Let it run! After 5 hours take profit as you see fit. So exits were mentioned, I just left it up to ES to make the call.

To improve is to change. To perfect, is to change often.
