This is funny... when I worked on the software, I was looking for a trader/programmer . Now that I trade, I find a trader/programmer...
I day trade during the first 30 minutes of the market, no swing or long term positions (yet). 100% of my day is in front of a computer screen so I find this forum to be reviving.
My direction, in most cases, is dictated by the GAP but my entries are discretionary, I look at 2 charts to determine levels of "argument" and place my entry at or around those levels. I use t&S to keep my eyes busy I think that the only way to analyze T&S is by a computer program, I cannot base a decision on the t&S data flow that comes in.
To me, trading is about managing your risk and saving money for tomorrow. We all know that a trade can go either way and that no wins or losses are guaranteed.
but God I enjoy it
