take some time off and evaluate yourself...intra day is quick so u'll need to be fast and decisive to make money...
don't be too greedy that will make u take irrational trading decisions...cut down position size and gradually increase it when u gain more confidence...
and ya always keep stop losses;
short selling can really kill u as ur losses can be unlimited...

all the best!

In Intraday ,why Short Selling is more dangerous than Long only.Actually the Risk element is same for both.

If there is something you are not doing right,that does not mean it cannot be done.Instead look around and assess whether it has ever been done......and if it has,then it can be acieved,......then,go about trying to achieve the same!!

Once you have decided that everything,every failure,every mistake.......is your fault,yours alone.....once you remove that onus of Blame from Luck,God, People around you, Bad broker,etc and take all blame squarely on your shoulders.........now go about trying to find where you've gone wrong and move on to great success.

Well said.

right now I am still not fully comfortable in doing full time trading and also I don't have any softwares also to view the charts on a daily basis..but I visit this forum often and get useful inputs from you, uasish and other great ppl here...thanks to all these ppl...

but sometimes I do on my own..and that bombs

Slow and steady ......Baby Steps for now...
