I'm currently working on making my trading boring...
I guess that means it can't be too exciting, and it can't be too scary. It sounds kinda abstract at first... but if you just keep focusing on that goal, it can guide you to what's really important... doing the same thing over and over and over and over over and over. You get the point
i hope
The Formula is
C x 1.XX^t where t = D
C = Capital
xx= percentage ex. (2% 1.02)
D = Time in days.
Ex.
Capital $100
Gain % =20%
Time Period = 30 Days
It would look like
100 = 1.20^t where t = 30
My view, is that in a normal trending environment (lets say up, like we have been), you will see the judas down followed by the real move up. The problem is that we're very "toppy" on the daily chart. We are in heavy resistance areas. They want to turn it around and nail as many people as possible. Price dips, gives people rope to hang themselves with, runs up, triggers breakout buy orders, short stop losses, then boom.. other direction. Come to think of it, daily tops (assuming this is, in fact a top) are very seek and destroy-ish.
