I buy when everyone else is in panic heading for the doors. Sell when everyone else is ecstatic. It is a contrarion point of view, I know. Doesn't work for everyone.

If your stops are too tight, they will be taken out. Adjust to your tolerance or prepare to watch your account blow up. Don't accept advice from others as gospel in this game. Other traders look for stops that are too close(within 1 to 2% of a ...
