I trade with small stakes initially ,and place large stakes after I get a feel for the sentiment and trend .The minute I see a trend ,I jump in with large quick in and out trades lasting a few minutes.

and you consider this 'mercenary' trading as opposed to what most other people are doing ?

There is much more than that in mercenary trading.If I post any of the other twists and turns ,trading tricks ,counter trend trades , betting sequences , hedged trades etc etc , we could miss a lot of trading opportunities and lose trading opportunities.

Posting here this morning has already cost a few good opportunities.

So, ODDT, pretty much everyone here thinks you are a moron.

Maybe none of us is clever enough to understand what you do.

OR, maybe you really are a total idiot.

In fact, that is unkind to idiots. You are a sub-idiot. You've never placed a single trade in your life, yet you come to this website and pollute it with your pointless gibberish.

More total sh1t. You have over 2,000 posts, so by YOUR definition you are not serious (as if we needed confirmation).

Every time you type something you just confirm to everyone how ridiculous you are.

Here's a hint - stop posting and people might forget your stupidity.

Um, so it's our fault that you are forced into posting, and not making loads of money instead?

Just think how much money you could make if you never logged into t2w!!
