{quote} @elbert3: Thank you for the lovely post, especially the part about risking 200 pips to make 1000, 2000, 3000pips HDA OUT
Why does a position trader have to risk 200 pips? Isn't the defining element of a position trader when (or if) they close the trade - not when and how they entered. HDA's position may have had drawdown, but that doesn't mean all his positions start that way. I enter with tight stops, and am learning to hold and build trades into a long term position.

I am personally very grateful to HDA for his 'patience' posts - they have encouraged me to hang on and keep building my GU short positions (currently 2,646 pips). If I hold these to HDA's target then I will bag 4942 pips - if I keep building.... then who knows.

To me patience is trading foreplay - the longing you hold the more powerful and exciting the close is .

Absolutely HDA. No big deal there. It was a smaller than normal position as a feeler "just in case" the data surprised. Back to shorting the rallies as per usual and by the techs again.

Thoughts and Prayers on your loss today.

I kid because I care... Oh, and because I know you'll make up that loss in no time and be rolling in the green again soon.

it makes sense. I left earlier at 16920 but I will stay out for a while. FOMC meeting may bring confusion & disappointment as with the huge gdp projections focus now is on anything related to interest rates or tightening. Yellen dovishness is yet to be seen but at least today she won't risk any unsolicited question.
