I find it difficult to fathom the notion of someone being able to consistently trade with the economic sentiment ....
Yeah after banging my head on that wall for a few years, i gave up and just started straddling price ranges around certain economic events. Started a thread on it, you should check it out. I also noticed that my charts now bear a striking resemblance to the ones you were posting in the other place, maybe you were a few months ahead of me.

Good self image. Long term success in anything isnt possible without your auto success mechanism running the ship. The good news is anyone can learn it.

My last answer is:

Pros believe they can make a living at trading. The other 95% or 99.7% are always in doubt.

What sets true professionals apart from the rest?

Flexibility, i.e., the ability to correctly interpret price action and to trade accordingly (this mean not only the ability to adjust strategies, but also a willingness to trade in both directions). Strategies and directions "depend" on the correct interpretation of price action.
