Hey KG
You miss the irony , I was just kidding with the post.

I maintain that daytrading is the most relaxing, easy and the best way to participate in the markets and make money.All those who keep talking about how difficult and impossible it just makes me chuckle.

But it requires desire, preparation and a few years of work before one is consistently successful at it ( key word here is consistency because anybody can put on a winning trade but few can consistently do it ).There are few who have the will to swallow the humiliations day after day especially at the newbie stage and continue doggedly without any 'structure' unlike in other professions.

Even Bhrama dev don't know what is Going to happen.
Don't trade intra.
If you want to trade intraday, First take a delivery of that stock at support point, If that day scrip goes to intra day high or up to resistance sell it immadiatly. After that wait it to fall up to support level-then buy It. you will never lose any money.If after selling it breaks resistance don't panic you sell your delivery forgot it.

Hi HMP

As I said in the other thread, money management puzzle cant be solved in isolation..it has to fit seamlessly into your trading plan. For every strategy I employ I know the MAE ( Maximum Adverse Excursion ) that is..how much will the trade is expected to go against me before starting to show a profit. Based on that I size my positions which is as you can see are strategy dependent.When trading discretionarily, I follow the Fixed Lot Methodology that is predetrmined based on the 'heat/risk' I am willing to take on an account.

Another key method I follow is to "Trade for Zero' that is I take trades which have high probability of going in my favor as soon as possible.That frees me from the two major things that most people are worried about - being right and knowing what the markets are going to do.

I hope this helps

Yes Mr Anand..but one doesnt need to know what is going to happen next in the market to make money.One just needs to know the probability of whats going to happen and bet accordingly. Ever played poker Mr.Anand?

b/w Do you know that Buffett used to trade in his early years? Also that he lost 2 Billion on his Dollar trade.

You guys need to get a clue before you talk about anything.Maybe try and grow a brain or something, its useful
