You all keep saying stick to your plan, fair enough I believe I do stick to my plan, but nothing is objective in trading, it changes from one situation to another. Virtuoso, you say don't have stops where others have them. What does that mean, have stop at 0? What if you are wrong in your analysis? No stop placement is perfect, it can only be close to perfect when placed outside the noise, I will admit that I am struggling identifying what's noise & what ain't recently. Some say markets are random so if that is proven to be so, then all is noise? There is a lot of contradiction and blanket statements flying around the trading world.
Taking my trades, forgetting the fact that you don't agree with them, where should I have put a stop? That is constructive & objective.
Thanks.
P.S. Again I am not saying that my stops are being hunted, I am saying that bots seem to have increased their capability to hunt stops. Before support and resistance seemed to have more value, you could place a stop not too far from a key zone, now you can be shaken a lot further. That is my opinion & others do concur to that current sentiment. That can only be established when trading real capital.
